Hello All,<br>
<br>
It's taken me a minute to report on Lynne because I
have waited to talk to attorneys after they have visited with her first
hand to discuss Lynne's situation, needs and other matters. Above
is Lynne's mailing address. All mail (except legal mail) is subject
to opening and reading by the institution. Legal mail must be
opened in front of the inmate. Lynne will greatly appreciate
getting beautiful cards and thoughtful letters. Please remember to
write to her now and as time goes along.<br>
<br>
Our main focus at this time is the next court
date. Lynne has a 28 months sentence, if you have read the 2nd
Circuit decision (and you can by going to the web site for the 2nd
Circuit Court of Appeals, look under decisions and you will find USA v.
Stewart) you will find that the sentence that Lynne has received is
threatened, meaning it could go higher. Our goal is to show the
steadfast support that Lynne has from the community, to be vigilant,
Lynne Stewart's good deeds throughout her life and the fact that she had
been out since her arrest in 2002 with no incidents - her age, her health
- all demand <b>NO MORE TIME</b> than she already has. Of
course, we don't think that she should be doing any jail time at
all, but we must be realistic and fight for attainable goals. <br>
<br>
<b>In light of this LET'S FILL THE COURTROOM AND MORE
on DECEMBER 2, 2009 AT 10:30 A.M. JUDGE KOELTL'S COURTROOM, UNITED STATES
DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, 500 PEARL STREET, COURTROOM
12B. <br>
</b> <br>
Lynne's attorneys will continue to fight her case all
the way to the Supreme Court. That is our long term battle.
Our short term battle is to fill that courtroom on each and every
occasion there is court, to let the justice dept. know that there are
many concerned people, and that Lynne is precious to us. We can
protect her, when the eyes of many are on her and her situation.
<br>
<br>
We do not know how long Lynne will remain in
MCC/NY. She has court appearances ahead and a resentencing, this
could be a long time. She is required to make a visiting list, and
there is a form to fill out, people will need to be approved and the list
is not endless, so all may not have access to her.
Attorneys of record can visit her, meaning those attorneys working on her
legal case. But attorneys who cannot visit her can play an
important role as attorneys, in standing by Lynne Stewart and thinking of
ways unique to their profession to show the support Lynne dearly
needs.<br>
<br>
Lynne loves to read and it is important to note that
all books and publications must come from the publisher and mailed
directly to Lynne. I will be asking Lynne for a list of reading
requests and if folks want to send her a book, let's coordinate our
efforts so that she doesn't get more than 1 copy of the same book
etc. Lynne will need commissary money. You can visit the
website for the United States Bureau of Prisons (just type that in to
your search engine) under "inmate matters" you will
see the option telling you how to send money to an
inmate. You can do it through Western Union, using their website or
at a store, send what you can. If you would like to let me know by
email that you are sending her this or that, so that we can coordinate
things, I would be happy to help. <br>
<br>
Lastly, tonight, I want you all to know that your
support over the years means the world to Lynne. I miss not
talking to her every day, sometimes many times a day. It is
important to me that we keep Lynne in the present with us every day, and
that strategies and decisions are run by her first to the extent
possible. All who want to continue to send out the word about Lynne
to their own contingency should continue of course. <br>
<br>
Stay tuned for future updates and developments.
<br>
