The EMW Women’s Clinic in Lexington has put off performing abortions until a judge rules next week on a request from Gov. Matt Bevin’s administration to stop the procedures. “We’re taking a timeout,” Lexington attorney Scott White, who is representing the clinic, said Wednesday. The Bevin administration’s Cabinet for Health and Family Services claimed in a lawsuit filed last week in Fayette Circuit Court that the clinic at 161 Burt Road, off Nicholasville Road, is operating without a license. The cabinet sent a letter March 4 to Dr. Ernest Marshall, who runs the clinic, asking it to “cease and desist”...

Mass Lawyers Weekly readers want investigation of Elizabeth Warren license problemPosted by William A. Jacobson Friday, September 28, 2012 at 7:42pm Mass Lawyers Weekly ran a reader poll today regarding the following question: Should U.S. Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren be investigated for possibly practicing law without a license? I heard about the poll in an email just after 1:30 p.m. today. I did not publicize the poll because while online polls are not scientific, I also didn’t want someone to say that the results were skewed by me publicizing the poll.

We need your help -- Last night, we received word that supporters across Massachusetts had received a robocall from Karl Rove’s Crossroads GPS. We’re told that the robocall attacks Elizabeth and blatantly lies about President Obama’s health care reforms. If you receive this phone call, or any other phone calls attacking Elizabeth, please notify the campaign immediately at http://my.elizabethwarren.com/page/m/2852d434/4584bc4b/6a657139/66b0cb20/2896361426/VEsE/ Under-the-radar phone calls aren't the only way our opponents are trying to secretly attack Elizabeth. We’ve also received word that Americans for Tax Reform -- Grover Norquist’s ultra right wing organization -- recently spent $200,000 on letters and mail pieces here...

The Vista Sheriffs Station conducted a Drunk Driving/License checkpoint Saturday night on Civic Center Dr. right in front of city hall. The large parking lot there came in handy for the 41 vehicles that were impounded and towed. 31 of the impounds were for unlicensed drivers, almost all of them Latino illegal aliens based on 3 hours of direct observation (see photos at left). The checkpoint also caught and arrested 7 people for under the influence of alcohol or drugs, according to a Sheriff's press release. Their vehicles were also seized in accordance with California law. According to Sgt. Petrofsky,...

Driver's license regulations are slanted against Latino immigrants Saturday, June 2, 2007 3:31 AM Since the recent Dispatch article "Checkpoint for Latinos, not drunks, critics charge," responses to my criticism of the May 5 (Cinco de Mayo) checkpoints in Latino neighborhoods have included at least two letters to the editor (May 16 and 18) and a Dispatch editorial on May 14. The prevailing opinion appears to be that my condemnation of the checkpoint was off-target and that such checkpoints provide law enforcement with a useful tool for the citation of people who should not be on the road. I stand...
