Question on C-Span about Attorney Fine!

On October 5, 2009 I got a question through on C-Span, regarding Attorney Richard Fine's case and SBX2 11! Correspondent Michael Doyle took my question during a series by the Washington Journal about the U.S. Supreme CourtA recording of the show was posted.

It's a dead link. I should have printed out transcript of that portion of the show before it was archived. It might be available upon request, with payment. 

Attorney Fine had a case against the county; Judge David Yaffe should have recused himself, because of the obvious "conflict of interest."Yaffe and other judges have been taking illegal benefits from the county for decades!

You can read about SBX2 11 and Attorney Fine's case At Ballotpedia. where it's mentioned that on 10-05-2009, the Supreme Court of the United States denied Attorney Fine's certiorari petition. 

This morning, I asked a question on C-Span regarding the status of Attorney Fine's certiorari petition. Caller from Maine, 41 minutes into the video.

We cannot allow our leaders to ignore such injustices. Please write to them and demand they order Attorney Fine released from the illegal imprisonment.



After the program, Robb Harleston, who was the show's host, discussed a story by Paul Harris titled "Will California become America's first failed state?" California has a population of about 37 million. What happens in California affects other states. Quoting Harris: 

"There is a growing movement to call for a constitutional convention that could redraw the way the state is governed. It could change how the state passes budgets and make the political system more open, recreating the lost middle ground."
