‘Kangaroo Court’ Hears Case For ‘Permanent Injunctions’ Against Blogger Roger Shuler
Carol Shuler has updated her husband Roger’s Legal Schnauzer blog with the latest bizarre – and disturbing – development in the events surrounding the beating and abusive incarceration of the blogger:
As expected, it was indeed a kangaroo court.
The officials at the Shelby County Courthouse in Columbiana, Alabama, turned away large numbers of concerned citizens claiming the mysterious and nefarious proceedings were closed to the public. This was done in an effort to hold the court’s actions away from the glaring and disapproving spotlight of public opinion. However, several people did manage to gain access to the courtroom. We have talked to them at length regarding the bizarre proceedings and will report more in coming days as further information comes to light. Although I was not present at this hearing, conversations with Roger Shuler and others reveal a number of very alarming and mystifying key points.
The key points are as follows:
- The court and the other side threatened me with arrest. (i.e. legal extortion)
- The court told Roger Shuler he could be in jail indefinitely. (i.e. legal extortion)
- The other side threatened us with monetary sanctions. (once again, legal extortion… Is it just me, or are you beginning to sense a pattern here?)
- The other side never requested a struck jury at the outset of the underlying alleged “defamation” case. (This means it is a bench trial. Bench means the outcome will be decided by the judge only.)
- The other side filed a motion to remove the seal on the underlying alleged “defamation” case.
