How about Obamacare?

It went all the way to the Supreme Court.


Thank you for proving my point.

For the case to preede to the Supreme Court meant lowers courts believed the case did have merit to be heard and argued in the appellate process. Just because a major of the upper courts found not to agree, doen't mean it was "meritless"

The nuisance cases I refer to are the cases at that are filed in lower courts that have been adjudicated yet with a incessant refiling the same case but approaching it with different arguements and rewording. i,e., the overweight murderer who tried to declare it would "cruel and unusual" to put to him death becausae he was too fat.

You can't have looser pays in criminal cases. A little problem with constitutional rights of the defendant.

Looser pays applies only to civil cases and it only applies to the plaintiff filing the suit, since the plaintiff already collects damages from the defendant if the defendant looses the case.

If the defendant wants to file a counter suite against the plaintiff claiming there is no merit to the case go for it, but they are required to prove there is no merit to the case, just don't hand the defendant money because they win the case.

There are a lot of lawsuits filed where the defendant wins the case but the case had merit. One example would be where an individual files a suit against a multimillion dollar company and simply cannot match the amount of money spent on legal fees of the multimillion dollar company.

A corrupt judge can drag a case out for years swamping the person filing the suit in legal fees.

You have automatic looser pay you are opening the door to even more corruption in the courts.

It [Kelo] was an abomination against all property owners in the country.

You mean "property renters". Try not paying your semi-annual property rent to the REAL owners, and see what happens...

Look up the Center for Biological Diversity on the internet and you will see where their staff came from. A very incestuous network of environmental wackos with lots of foundations giving them tens of millions of dollars, perhaps hundreds of millions if you look further into each individual group (and then in the cumulative).

Here in Texas some of the democrat controlled counties have a new trick for taking someone’s property to sell to someone else that wants the property.

File a suit claiming delinquent taxes are due on the property even though the taxes have been paid.

When the owner presents evidence in the form of receipts showing the taxes have been paid they will agree to dismiss the suit.

With the owner believing the suit is dismissed the county will then get a judgment against the previous owner of the property and an en rem (SP?) judgment against the property.

Since the suit against the owner is dismissed the owner is never notified of any kind of judgment.

Without knowledge of any kind of judgment the owner has no reason to file any kind of appeal of the judgment.

Since the owner hasn’t appealed the judgment, the court will then seize the property.

The owner is then left with the option of paying the county the money they claim is owed, or the owner looses the property.

Anybody believe this is far fetched, they did it to me in Hardin County, TX.

From what I got out of an attorney the same thing has been happening in a number of counties.

I believe this is what was behind the attempt to take the taxing authority away from each individual school district.
