1. Catching Up with Gov. Don Siegelman
By Joan Brunwasser for OpEd News
J.B.Can you bring our readers up to speed on your appeal?
Don Siegelman: I should hear "yes" or "no" from the US Supreme
Court in December or early January. I'm going to DC today, [Thursday
the 12th] to talk with another lawyer whom I hope will join my team to
argue my case before the USSC [United States Supreme Court] if they
should grant our petition.
I will also be working with my Georgetown Law classmate, Peter
Sissman, who has taken the lead in our motion for a new trial which is
now pending before Judge Fuller (who enhanced my sentence for
speaking out about the political origins of my prosecution, and who
had me handcuffed, shackled and put into solitary confinement in a
maximum security prison).
...I am also trying to get new documents to the HJC [House Judiciary
Committee], staff of the Indian Affairs Committee and the Committee
on governmental Oversight about new evidence further linking Jack
Abramoff to my case. I hope to pique their interest on another avenue
to Rove.
