Update to the Corrupticourts- From Attorney Jim Brewer

QuoteFrom the "bagged" attorney Jim Brewer. Here's what happened to him: ======== ON THE CORRUPTICOURTS: == From: "JS BREWER" [email address snipped] To: melissa.farley@po.state.ct.us CC: [other recipients snipped] Subject: Who gets to bring Note pads in Court Date: Wed, 3 May 2006 20:02:49 -0400 Dear Ms. Farley: I am writing to inquire what the Judicial Department's position is on bringing in note taking materials to our various Courts. I have practiced in many courtrooms, both state and federal and in New Jersey as well, and I was perplexed to hear that Judge Susco has no issued (apparently) an order that, "You can't take notes here [in the courtroom]." I understand that the COURT ORDER was directed at reporters, which raises considerable First Amendment issues for me. I expect the reporters from the papers I read to be able to "note" what is occurring in our courtrooms. As you know they are the "eyes and ears" for the public. We have a right to know what happens. Needless to say, the judiciary's track record the past few months has been disappointing to say the least. Opinions held back by the Chief Justice to help a fellow Justice get promoted. Denial of FOI status to what anyone who isn't smoking dope would agree are administrative records, and now denial of the press and apparently anyone from taking notes in a courtroom. Wow! Some times I feel as though some time warp has occurred and we have reverted back to the cold war, lost it to the "Evil Empire" Soviet Union and our Constitution thereafter scraped for some "New World Order" called Corrupticut Law. I wonder if the Court's order was enforced up Prosecutors, and other government agents in the same manner as others. Finally, if I were to go to one of your Courtrooms tomorrow and start taking notes, will I be in contempt of court? The fact that you and your cohorts at the judiciary have not come out and immediately disavowed this outrageous and draconian order speaks volumes about the extent of corruption in Connecticut, "the land of steady habits" needs to be renamed "the land that eviscerated the Constitution." Please let me know as soon as possible, because I want to be able to go tomorrow and take some notes! Sincerely, Jim Brewer - |
