| Quote: |
In a major victory, Federal District Court Judge James Mahan issued an injunction on January 28, ordering Secretary of State Dean Heller to immediately send the Committee for Regulation and Control of Marijuana's (CRCM's) initiative petition to the legislature when it opens on February 7. The legislature will have 40 days to pass the initiative into law or place it unamended on Nevada's ballot in November 2006.
In his ruling, Judge Mahan said that Heller's processes and procedures are flawed and that the 2002 General Election figures should have been used to determine the number of signatures necessary for ballot initiatives, not those of the 2004 Election. He further noted that Heller and Nevada Attorney General Sandoval's decisions violated CRCM's due process and First Amendment rights.

I was just sitting here today feeling like the was no hope for anything good in this world. Maybe there is still some hope after all.
Peace

There must be some positive cosmic convergence taking place because I've been feeling the same way since yesterday, please tell me it won't end.

| Heller's January 19 motion called the schedule "fundamentally unfair," complaining that CRCM's "allegations are complex in nature and cite to numerous cases." |
Lmao he is complaining we used big words and statistical proof against him I guess.
