True the Vote loses
Gettysburg & Vicksburg. True the Vote & Chris McDaniel. Both suffered tremendous defeats today. True the Vote lost in federal court today as Judge Nancy Atlas ruled that the National Voter Registration Act did not cover poll books while Chris McDaniel saw his election challenge thrown out because his legal team couldn't read a calendar. True the Vote is a public interest organization that seeks to defend "election integrity". True the Vote filed suit in federal court seeking access to unredacted copies of the poll books, absentee ballots, and other materials used in the recent Mississippi Senate elections.

It wasn't a convention of Oakland Raiders groupies, but lawyers, a whole mob of lawyers, dedicated to slugging it out over True the Vote's Lawsuit against Secretary of State (SOS) Delbert Hosemann, the Republican Party of Mississippi (MSGOP), and several counties. The Texas non-profit public interest group sought a preliminary injunction against the defendants over the issue of the redaction of birth dates from the poll books used in the Republican Senate primary and runoff elections last month. The court did not rule on the preliminary injunction but requested briefs in the next two to three weeks.

How not to practice law: Part 3.
Earlier post containing rather entertaining facts of case and video.
The Mississippi Supreme Court took no action on two contempt of court motions filed against Vicksburg attorney Michael Winfield by Vicksburg Healthcare. The court held a hearing on July 24 to decide whether to hold Mr. Winfield in contempt after he failed to make payments as ordered by the court on April 30. The court ordered the wayward attorney to pay $500 in sanction monthly installments of $100 and attorney's fees to Vicksburgh Healthcare in monthly installments as well. Mr. Winfield paid the sanctions and fees in full a few days before this hearing- after Vicksburg filed its motions for contempt. Mr. Winfield drew the sanctions and a serious ass-chewing from the court when he failed to appear at a show cause hearing on April 30. Mr. Winfield appeared at the hearing forty-five minutes late- after the court ordered the clerk to contact Mr. Winfield as the justices waited. A full court presided over the July 24 hearing. Mr. Winfield is the brother of jailed Vicksburg Mayor Paul Winfield.
