Ron Paul apparently has some plans on how he wishes to use campaign funds remaining in his account.
Political Advertising: Yard Signs
Because I’ve covered laws regarding yard signs, I thought I’d mention an article in today’s Post. The article cites concerns over “visual pollution” and potential changes to some jursidictions’ laws to limit signs from appearing until 30 days before an election. Some legal analysis of these restrictions is available here and here.
Fieger’s Legal Team
The Detroit Free Press reports on Feiger’s legal team in this article.
Fieger has hired two nationally known criminal attorneys to defend him against charges that he and law partner Vernon (Ven) Johnson illegally contributed $127,000 to Democrat John Edwards’ failed 2004 presidential campaign.
The team is led by Wyoming criminal lawyer Gerry Spence, a 78-year-old author and legal commentator whose Web site boasts that he hasn’t lost a criminal case in more than five decades.
Spence’s cocounsel is David Nevin, 58, a Boise, Idaho, lawyer who was tapped this month to help defend Khalid Sheik Mohammed, the alleged mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Mohammed is being held at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, and faces the death penalty if convicted in an upcoming military trial.
