Declan,

Just wanted to briefly report that my vituperrious co-defendant Montgomery Griffith-Mair in 02-CV-117 (Colorado District federal court, see http://www.ind-movement.org/lawsuit/)
was effectively gagged by Arkansas Judge Homer Wright by some
kind of injuction today, after the same team of plaintiffs (Prentice,
James, et al) had had sued Griffith-Mair for criticizing them
(Garland County Circuit No. CV-2003-515-I), and won.

( http://archbishops.org/problematic.html

Griffith-Mair, known for his thriftyness, may have hurt himself
badly in this case by defending himself pro-se instead of retaining counsel.

Having the case decided by twelve mostly unsophisticated and
non-Internet-using jurors, instead of by a bench trial, may have also hurt.

Tony
