After 18 months of unnecessary legal action taken by CCGLA, the motion for a new trial that was granted in February 2007 expired without any further action by CCGLA. This means the lawsuit has died. While the initial judgment made in favor of the Collin Equality Foundation would have extremely beneficial to our community, it … Continue reading RIP: CCGLA Lawsuit

Having now had some time to sit back and catch up on things, I decided to post a response to the Motion for Non-Suit filed by Jay English, CCGLA's Attorney. The CEF is not planning on opposing the motion, however it contained a number of statements or claims that continued to misrepresent the facts. The … Continue reading When is a suit, not a suit?
After we thought the matter between CCGLA and CEF had been resolved, the judge granted a motion for a new hearing on April 16, 2007.

The judge made … Continue reading A little late, but an update

It is important (to me) to document why I made this decision, as to some it may be seen as a retreat (possibly for the wrong reasons). When I filed this … Continue reading CCGLA Lawsuit
