| Rent Wars | Thursday, March 28, 2002 - 02:05 am A state judge issued an order restraining Harmicks tenants from protected protest activities without a hearing or notice and violating the ban against prior restraint of Free Speech. Do state judges have the expertise to handle constitutional issues? Do such actions by the courts chill the Free Speech activities of tenants and other protesters? What can be done about it? |
| marcyjcla | Saturday, March 30, 2002 - 02:20 am Some state judges have expertise and some don't! That is why God invented appellate courts! You could try the ACLU. |
