Description

June 19, 2000 and July 25, 2000 marks the date that the first prior restraints on pure speech were ever implemented. These orders were issued in US Dist. CT. Case No. 99-14027-Graham Lynch by a mere Magistrate Judge, Frank Lynch, Jr.. These documents were assigned Docket Nos. 201 and 246. The second of these two orders are really expansive that the federal Magistrate asserts jurisdiction over the administration of Florida Public Records. In over two hundred years, the U.S. Supreme Court compose of nine Article III Judges, has never done this, however, a mere Magistrate, Frank Lynch, Jr, issues this injunction. Incidentally a Magistrate may not issue an injunction. “A judge may designate a magistrate to hear and determine any pretrial matter pending before the court, except a motion for injunctive relief…” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(A). For more information on this matter see http://mmason.freeshell.org. This order prohibits direct communication with the government by a non-lawyer. It requires Marcellus M. Mason to seek the permission of Allen, Norton &Blue, a law firm in Tampa, Fl to talk to his local government, Highlands County Board of County Commissioners. U.S. Dist Judge Donald L. Graham,S.D.Fla., in a secret opinion has that this injunction is not clear error. This prior restraint is discussed more fully at donaldlgraham.blogspot.co m. U.S. Dist Judge Donald L. Graham's misconduct and hubris is documented at mcneilmason.wordpress.com . These orders clearly implicate the First Amendment and the "Petition Clause".
