Judge Biggers to Sid Backstrom: Don’t ask for any favors if you haven’t been straight with me If these folks keep asking the judges who sat in these cases for their two cents, it’s going to be really hard for them to establish and sustain a version of the story that suggests they really didn’t…

Bill Minor (bless his heart) calls redistricting plan ‘Dennymandered’
Redistricting plan named ‘Dennymandered’ Though crudely handled, the GOP plan was cleverly drawn by making black districts blacker, giving the map on paper an appearance of meeting minority requirements of the 1965 Voting Rights Act. The dirty little secret behind their over-populating black majority districts, is to wipe out at least a half dozen rural…

With a 48 page opinion, Judge Glen Davidson put to rest any hope that Dickie Scruggs will get out of jail.

NMC – Dickie Scruggs to Judge Davidson: Decide my petition, because I could be getting out soon.
Scruggs to Judge Davidson: Decide my petition, because I could be getting out soon.
