Just doesn't fly anymore.

[Wanda Marrison]

Mr. Rotta,

If you would like to come to a CC meeting I will personally walk you into the building and into the City Hall PUBLIC chambers. If you are going to be arrested I suppose I will be too!

I dare you to take me up on this. NO MORE EXCUSES

[Sweater Cows!]

But the LOT says ONLY CM SHAY can give WRITTEN permission for Mr. Rotta to enter, and ONLY the city attorney can make a decision on an appeal.

the WSP you voted for does not allow *you* to give Mr. Rotta permission or escort him . he could still be arrested.

[Sweater Cows!]

See, Mrs. marrison, the WSP give you or any of your fellow councilors NO power to do anything. The only person who can give permission is John Shay, the only person who can hear an appeal of a LOT is the (non-local, sub-contracted) City Attorneys. You as a board member have no power to do anything despite what you may wish to do, the law is written in stone so to speak. In voting for the WSP you and you fellows gave John Shay and the Manistee Law firm  ALL the power to do as they please, according to and by following the WSP your opinion is null and void. (not trying to be mean, but that is the way it was voted into existence as written).

If I were you I wish I would have voted NO and instead required a WSP that the Ludington City Council who represent the town's people could actually have control over their own WSP, not a city manager and hired law firm. In the end who are they to make any decisions, it should be up to you and your fellows of the board or the courts who have a legitimate interest in a WSP, not outsiders.

Mrs. Marrison,

Shrugs is right, I would be the only one arrested, you would not be until you pass a law for being an accomplice to trespassing.  You can do your part by following your oath of office and do your part in repealing the law you and six others voted for over a year ago. 

When that is done, if you want me to come to a City Council meeting, I will personally walk with you into the building and into the City Hall PUBLIC chambers. 

I dare you to take me up on this.  NO MORE EXCUSES.

Dale,

I would assume he didn't like jail the first time and is in no hurry to go back.

While I commend Wanda for extending the invitation - WWSA is correct the LOT states only Mr.Shay can grant permission. Maybe this will get the council to rethink the wording of the LOT and the requirements needed to get the LOT - the accused should always have an opportunity to defend themselves, and a city manager should not be given the power to be judge and jury.

[XLFD]

And executioner.  While I appreciate Wanda extending the invitation, it is at best an insult to everyone's intelligence if her presence would change the law she passed and has championed as protecting someone from actually meeting me for the first time (Mrs. Tykoski).

Dale,

Get your facts straight, I didn't voluntarily take a County Jail civil contempt field trip for contesting a bicycle citation, I got there by respectfully reminding Judge Mark Raven that he did not have jurisdiction in that case, and standing by what the law, the Michigan Supreme Court, and the SCAO dictate by not following his unlawful court order. 

Just so you know, the hearing for nullification of that is coming up this next week.

If I can prove my point without getting thrown in the hoosegow, I'll do it.  The WSP is the law I am referring to, and it is a very onerous law indeed to those it's applied to. 

[Lisa O'Brien]

Dang XLFD you have a hearing on the bike issue next week - you spend to much time in court rooms. Summer is coming I hope you get all this resolved one way or the other so you can enjoy the warm weather.

[XLFD]

Dale, it's not too difficult to believe when the seasoned Judge Richard Cooper overlooks the fact that his son has been part of the defendant's legal team all along, LOL.   I'm going to be putting up the transcript from the "show cause hearing" where me and Judge Raven had that discussion.  Judge Wadel has it next Thursday at 11:30(?) I think. 

Lisa, I've already gotten in more bicycle time in the last two days than I have the prior two March's combined, but I hope most of the pro se stuff (without a lawyer) is done by the next couple of months.

Basically... Mrs Marrison either didnt read the law she helped pass or didnt care... And now either doesnt realize she cant ( walk XL) anywhere near the facility lobby, or is activly trying to get him to do so. So which is it MM??
