This is an extremely busy time for me and I am travelling to Iowa City, Ia to do legal research at the University of Iowa Law Library. Although I do not relish this activity it is necessary because of the Bogus lawsuit which the Seafarers International Union has initiated against me In Iowa District Court in Clinton County. However, the skills that I am learning in the process should allow me to help many seamen no matter how the suit turns out.
So far, the Seafarers lawfirm has conducted this action as if they have no clue about how to go about things. They have filed at least three petitions which have no effect because they were not sent after the Clerk of Court put her Seal and Signature on the Petition. Finally, the Clerk sent me a copy of the petition and I can move forward with either a motion(which I will make this week)or and Answer to the petition. I will keep everyone informed of the process that occurs.

This week the service that hosts this new blog concept starts charging a monthly fee. Initially, at least until I can figure out how to install a program of this type on my web page, I will continue with this service. Eventually I hope to incorporate a Bulletin Board function so Rank and File Seamen will have a place to communicate with each other.
