Legal Rulings. I will be working on a bunch of posts this weekend. Hmm, I was supposed to type the court case. Since it is now 9:30 PM I am not sure it is going to make it tonight. I will work on it over the weekend.

This does bring up one question (yeah, I should have quit at the end of the last paragraph). First a brief explanation. Once a court "publishes" a case, and other people use it, sometimes the original ruling is modified. This can be good or bad. A good way is they actually use the newer case to broaden the application of the older case; or negatively, they restrict the effectiveness of the case by saying some portions of it no longer apply.

I think you have found, and I have mentioned, that my federal case was sent for resentencing due to an appeal and several other federal appeals have since used my case to get relief for themselves. Ironic, since part of my double punishment problems was the lame excuse my lawyer in NY used that since my federal sentence was appealed and I needed to be resentenced, I was not actually sentenced any longer.

If you could figure out a way to search for the case number, also know as its cite, whenever it appears in the NY case law database and give me a list of those cases, then I could pull them out of the books we have. That is all we have in the law library. What I am asking you to do is actually called shepard and they print books that do it, but I do not have access to those books.

I am not sure WTF is going on. It is now 9:10 PM and I am just typing the draft of page three. The preceding page decided to do all kinds of strange stuff including paragraphs inserting themselves inside other paragraphs. Well, hopefully this page will go smoother.  ¶ 12:56 PM
