News From The Legal Front
The bond hearing previously scheduled for today for Barbara Ellison on the assault and battery charges has been canceled. The next court date in the case is January 26, 2006.
Two days ago, Ellison's neighbors filed a quiet title lawsuit in LeFlore County District Court. The quiet title suit names several defendants including Barbara Ellison and Oklahoma Western Telephone Company.
Evidently the plaintiffs named the telephone company as a defendant owing to the fact that the phone company's cable serving the area is located on the county right-of-way. Naming the phone company as a defendant may be an attempt to backdoor a claim to county land without naming the county commissioners as defendants.
A postint on an forum offered an interesting observation on this lawsuit:
It's going to be very interesting to see what happens when the defense starts handing out subpoenas to various and sundry government officials, including county commissioners, tax assessors, assistant districts attorney, sheriff's deputies and office employees, a couple of judges and one notary public. These in addition to various officials at the Oklahoma Banking Department and the Oklahoma Corporation Commission, as well as a couple of bankers, surveyors and maybe even one attorney that actually held a mortgage on what is now the Ellison property.
It's gonna' be very interesting indeed...
To which LeFlore County News can only add:
It certainly is going to be interesting and very informative when all those government officials and business people are dragged into court to testify under oath...

I really love many things about LeFlore County. It offers much in the way of natural beauty. There are many people here who are loving, kind and decent people who treat their neighbors as they would their most loved kin.
Unfortunately, there are also citizens of LeFlore County who think that "status quo" means they can operate in defiance of law. Whether we are speaking of civil laws, or God's laws. They don't give a moment's thought to the sinfulness of their behavior when taking advantage of others.
There is also a contingency of citizens in LeFlore County who have gotten so used to relying on the crumbs handed down by those in power who violate laws, whether man's or God's, that they will blindly support the outright criminal behavior of those they perceive as "their leaders."

Would this contingency be those who start fights in the discussion forums so the moderator will shut down the whole topic instead of suspending the evildoers and thereby preventing the information being discussed from getting out to the public?
