We knew you would not want to head into this glorious weekend without your weekly Recall fix so here you go. Last month Recaller-In-Chief Robert Carter asked the Second District Court of Appeal in Lakeland for an extension of time to file his legal brief because, as he said, “Since I am representing myself and am not an attorney, I need all available time to draft my reply.” You can read it yourself by clicking HERE and you can read attorney Richard Harrison’s objection to the extension by clicking HERE.
Since then, Carter found a lawyer willing to file an appearance in the appellate case and that appearance apparently convinced the Second District yesterday to grant a one week extension until next Friday, July 16th to file the brief. You can read the order granting the extension HERE. Barring The Resurrection (no, really, at least some of this new lawyer's eschatological fan's apparently think it could happen any day now...take a look HERE) there will be no further extensions. But based upon the second set of petition signatures being certified today by the elections supervisor as expected, any number of different scenarios could play out between now and next Friday so check back here often for updates.
Oh yeah, and one more thing. Should Carter’s new lawyer actually file a brief by next Friday, it will be interesting to see whether the judges in the Second District Court of Appeals agree with her take on judicial opinions in general and the role of judges in particular. Read her rather frank and unabashed assessment of the judiciary in America by clicking HERE and decide for yourself.
Enjoy your weekend.
