The Plot Thickens

There is a motion to disqualify Judge Simpson from the Coeur d’Alene, Idaho Brannon election’s lawsuit. I have made it very clear on my site that I do not approve of some of Judge Simpson’s relationships within the influence of our Idaho Supreme Court and even some of his own reccomendations regarding changes in our court rules - [...]

More Witch Hunting

First of all, I am not an attorney, but my blog allows me to voice my opinion. You, the reader, do not have to agree with it, however, I encourage you to examine some of my material and form your own conclusions. Don’t put me into the equation, just examine the facts.

Before Judge Simpson was appointed by [...]

Including but not limited to ...

I wrote my short and snappy email to the prosecuter of Kootenai County that basically asked that he restore integrity to our local government. He replied in a coined response arguing against Mary Souza who is evidently a recognized attorney at large. Here is Kootenai County Prosecuter, Barry McHugh’s reply:

Mr. Brannon’s lawsuit is based on [...]

Lawyers Gone Bad

It is always refreshing when our agencies inform the public of certain individuals that you might not want to consider hiring or not. Kudos to the ISB for coughing up this information!

You can request documentation from the ISB – Idaho State Bar, concerning any lawyer that has been reinstated and what those conditions are surrounding his [...]

Judicial Burnout – A Public Concern?

Unfortunately, “burn out” can come with anyone’s job and judges are not any different. They just shouldn’t publicize it – this is one of those “silence with dignity” issues.

The public holds them to higher standards and we want to believe they are on top of their game and we should expect them to be. They are [...]

Efficiency or Appeasement?

The budget is a mess. According to CDA Press article written by Rick Thomas, our elected leaders are telling us this; “We’re still $450 million upside down,” Clark said. “We have problems, but we can solve them.”  

I find that remark incredibly concerning because I don’t think they can fix it, they are however, going to [...]
