"His scathing descriptions of the violations of the defendant's rights against unreasonable search and seizure indicate that he "gets" the case."

sceptical, I'm not trying to be cute: but do you mean plaintiff?

Back to reading.

Baldo and I may live to see Discovery on one count against Brodhead?
Payback, you are correct. I was so excited that I typed defendants instead of plaintiffs. I have edited the original post. I am honored to be corrected by such a distinguished professor of English!

I believe the three federal filings/cases were combined for the purpose of this ruling. I need to break for dinner....
Actually, this opinion appears to address only the McFadyen (Ekstrand) case.

May I respectfully suggest you edit the thread headline to read that discovery is moving forward.

Something like: "Duke Lacrosse Lawsuits to Move Forward, Judge Rules"

All the better for a google search to pick it up.

I was not trying to play schoolmaster, oh mighty sceptical, but just pushing to understand! It's an easy slip, especially when we are rushing to get the gist of the thing.

I'm getting the meaning in stages, and getting happier in stages. Baldo, tell me you are happy too and I will let go of the last nervousness.

I hope the Families are satisfied. It's not all we wanted...but when I see Nifong, Levicy, Brodhead, Steel, Wlson, Gottlieb, , Meehan...it thrills me!

The Day of Reckoning. Superb!

Discovery will go forward...and there is hope that... in each INDIVIDUAL case...the full story of the moral depravity of EACH of these Cretins will be fully revealed...and become a burden for THEM to carry professionally (for those who still have a "profession")...and personally...for the rest of their lives.

Let them be shamed.

Let them be humiliated and broken in every way...as they willfully attempted to do to these innocent kids.

DURHAM (WTVD) -- The remainder of the Duke Lacrosse team, that was not a part of the original three team members who were charged with raping Crystal Mangum in 2006, have filed a federal lawsuit.
from
http://abclocal.go.com/wtvd/story?section=news/local&id=8046216

Second lawsuit filed in Duke Lacrosse case

The three original players were eventually cleared of the charges.

The newest lawsuit names Durham leaders, police officers, the City of Durham and Duke University. More than 20 claims in the suit have been thrown out but many more claims remain.


Among those now in the clear are several top Duke officials including John Burness, Larry Moneta and Victor Dzau. But the claims against President Richard Brodhead remain as do claims against Durham police officers Himan and Gottlieb, Private Investigator Linwood Wilson and former Durham Police Chief Steve Chalmers.

The players are suing for untold millions in the wake of the scandal and that's on top of recent reports that the three main defendants have already received millions in settlements with more in the works.

ABC11 Eyewitness News reached out to the City of Durham and a spokesperson says the City is not commenting until the attorney's office finishes its review.

I am very happy!

Ekstrand's amended complaint was extravagant in the number of defendants, the number of counts, and his language.

Judge Beaty did exactly what I had hoped-- he pared down the number of defendants and counts but allowed discovery to progress.

While the defendants may appeal, Judge Beaty ruled narrowly and I do not think the defendants will be successful on appeal.

Eventually we are definitely going to get depositions and closer to the truth.
