THANK GOD there is someone in this state that is willing to take a stand. As a retired Legal Assistant for the Indiana Department of Child Services, I know all to well the effects of bad judges on the bench. GO PAUL

The Indiana court system is corrupt and fascist, by the latter I mean that whatever the General Assembly does, is never questioned by the court.

Mine was something of a mock suggestion. But why wouldn't legal scholars find the exercise instructive (re: freedom of speech).

CCS makes an illuminating observation.

I'm glad that Paul Ogden took a stand for first amendment rights for attorneys. Dan Brewington, a blogger, is waiting for the IN SC to decide if they will accept transfer in Brewington's first amendment case. Brewington was released from Putnamville Sept. 5 and the IN SC Court held oral argument, Sept 12, and now they are deciding if they are going to accept transfer. Brewington, also, criticized a judicial decision on his blog.

CCS,
In addition to First Amendment, an Indiana constitutional defense has been made. Even if the Supreme Court holds that NYT v. Sullivan is not the correct standard under the First Amendment (which I disagree with), it would be roped back in under Art. 1, Sec. 9.

The Indiana Constitution states: "Section 9....

The Indiana Constitution states: "Section 9. No law shall be passed, restraining the free interchange of thought and opinion, or restricting the right to speak, write, or print, freely, on any subject whatever: but for the abuse of that right, every person shall be responsible."

The court, being a branch of state government and subject to the Indiana Constitution should not put itself above the law of The State!

Those in the know are the best to criticize government and hold it accountable to The People. If The Supreme Court disregards our state constitution, then what is next? The court declaring itself Almighty, then legislating from the bench?

Let's hope that our Disciplinary Commission agrees with these written remarks of Jonathan, and gives Paul a break.

Nothing against law professors, Pete, but many of them have never practiced law a day in their life.

The Supreme Court is the governing body that reviews decisions of the DC. I don't see the court delegating away that oversight.

Establish an independent board to review decisions of the disciplinary commission. There are law professors in Indiana who would likely participate.
