    ★★★ HEDGES et al. vs OBAMA, Second Circuit Appeals Court ★★★


    Our Second Circuit court date has been set for:

    DATE: Wednesday, February 6, 2013
    TIME: 10am EST
    PLACE: New York

    ADDRESS:
    Southern District Federal Court - Thurgood Marshall Court
    aka: Manhattan Foley Square Courthouse
    Room 1505, 15th floor
    500 Pearl Street
    NY 10007

    (See below for further details.)

    If you support our efforts to restore your rights and are in the New York area, please publicly show your support by joining us in court this day! The goal is to pack the courtroom to the point of overflowing. Your presence WILL make a difference!


    Our lawyers have only been given 15 (!) minutes of hearing time and we expect the whole event to last for 1-2h only. A rather short session considering the importance of the coming decision and it's future impact - all the more reason for us to beg you all to come and bring your friends!

    We have to make some waves to show our lawmakers what we think of the NDAA's indefinite detention provision, to show that we won't stand idly by while our civil liberties are being eroded bit by bit.

    So join us, spread the word, invite your friends! Help us pack the courtroom to show the government that we demand our rights back!

    And a small appeal on our own behalf:

    We know that we don't have to say it really, but for the sake of completeness: Please be respectful in and outside the courtroom. As always, be excellent! To each other, the authorities, and in general :)
