There's been an update on that case. But before diving into that, the attorney for Lewis, Herb Titus will be making a speaking appearance this Friday, September 29, 2006 at 7:30 PM eastern time at the weekly meeting held at the office of Save-A-Patriot Fellowship at 12 Carroll Street, Westminster, Maryland. (Yes that is on Friday and NOT the usual Saturday for SAPF meetings). David Carmichael, who with the assistance of Titus won a very substantial and difficult SSN case against the US Navy, will also be there to speak. The meeting will be open to the public and you are invited to attend, or listen over the internet on http://www.libertyfeed.com. Herb Titus is also the attorney for PFC Michael New who was discharged for refusing to obey unconstitutional orders to wear a UN uniform. I'll also be in attendance and look forward to meeting these two fine gentlemen. On to the Idaho case. Lewis refused to provide an SSN out of a good faith conviction that doing so was morally wrong. I last covered this here: http://cjmciver.org/cgi-bin/lwanread.cgi?2006-06-28 There was a fair amount of optimism, albeit cautious (in court that's the best a sane person can be) that Lewis would win this case. A Supreme Court ruling handed down while this case was in progress was cited Attorney Herb Titus bolstered Lewis's case even further. However, it was not to be. The Appeals court handed down it's decision in favor of the state. That ruling can be found here: http://christianliberty.org/lewis/appealsopinionaug1706.pdf Herb Titus has taken substantial objection to the apparent basis of the ruling and has since filed an appeal to the Idaho's supreme court. That petition filed by Titus can be found here: http://www.christianliberty.org/lewis/lewispetition A summary of past announcements related to the case can be found here: http://christianliberty.org/lewis/announce It's my hope that Lewis and Titus will prevail in Idaho. Carmichael's own victory against the Navy also did not come easily and he similarly had to suffer through some very unfavorable circumstances and an unsympathetic judge, but he did finally win. My best regards go to Titus and Lewis. Neil McIver Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top Page Up Full Thread Page Down Bottom/Latest Begin Trace Mode for Comment # 1.
