Montgomery County Bill 21-22

[Bob A]

The transcript for the February 6th motion hearing was finally released, so I "bought" it on PACER (<$25 per quarter is free and this was $9). Attaching it here, but it's also available directly from CourtListener for free since I use recap.

Thank you.

The transcript is an interesting read.

Thanks for this!

I simply can't get over the Judge's unwillingness to do a TRO (Page 13, Lines 16-19):

MR. PENNAK: I think the Court could issue a TRO simply on the 100-yard exclusionary --

THE COURT: We're not doing a TRO; we're just doing a preliminary injunction here. I'm not going to do this twice.

Excuse me, Judge? You don't want to "do this twice"? Sorry our constitutional rights might be an inconvenience for you.

I find this outrageous, especially given the deprivation of a core constitutional right since this law was enacted last year.

BTW, what's "recap"?

RECAP is PACER spelled backwards. It's a browser plugin so that if you ever buy a PACER court document it automatically uploads it to RECAP. The RECAP copy is then used on CourtListener and probably all other such sites to provide a free copy of the document (if you look at a CourtListener page you'll see some documents have "Download PDF" and others have "Buy on PACER," depending on whether RECAP has a copy of the document). This way, hopefully, only one person ever has to pay for a document that should be free in the first place.

Also, as I said, if your total purchases on PACER are under $25 for the quarter they don't actually charge you, they just mark it back to $0. The registration process isn't the best, but overall it's fine. Just remember to also get the RECAP plugin so everyone can read the documents.

Thank you for that link! That's going to be very handy.

Well, I guess we're going to lose at District.

Judicial cowardice

Should never be underestimated.

Judicial cowardice

I consider it judicial activism more than cowardice. He knows he could have issued a TRO to preserve the status quo while this dragged on (given his apparently loaded case docket of other cases he's putting before this), but he made a deliberate decision not to do that and here we are many months later without a ruling on the preliminary injunction.

He wants the process to be the punishment, even if he ultimately has to issue a ruling that's favorable to MSI.

Damn if that doesn't sound like the Engage case. Same judge too, I think.

Are you referring to the Engage case with Andrew Raymond? If so, that's in Montgomery County Circuit Court with different judges.

On principle you're still right. They're going to throw the book at him and salt the Earth through this.
