Nothing to see here, move along.Quote:
Mr. Doe's current petition was assigned to Chancellor Thomas. However, the learned Chancellor is a donor to Ole Miss, an alumni of Ole Miss, and regularly attends football games at Ole Miss.
Wait a minute.. so all the names but "John Doe" are supposed to be released by friday? Well that's something new...

The order says that a temporary stay of the Ethics Commission order allows all parties to present their arguments. Ole Miss must provide a copy of the records "responsive to Mr. Robertson's public records request" by Friday. The booster names are to be remain unredacted. Well, all booster names but John Doe's. The redaction of John Doe's name will continue until the August 15 hearing.
Unreal!! The John Doe booster name is not exempt from the public records act Somebody else needs to be investigated it appears.
Well this is still good news unless something changes... the names will come out by friday except John Doe and anyone who works for him...
I fully expect to see the rest of the redacted boosters file suit in the same friendly court with this sympathetic judge and have a stay placed on them as well before the (arbitrary) Friday deadline. In fact, the more I think about it, the only reason to give them until Friday is to give the other boosters time to file their suit as well.
Steve just posted that he had reached an agreement with john doe and it has been signed in court. All of the names will be released Friday and john doe's name will be released in the coming weeks. He said once his name is released you will understand the agreement. Whatever that means. Interesting.
What kind of real power does the Ethics Commission have?
Mississippi's FOIA is a bullshit law and the MS Ethics Commission is a bullshit group of spineless morons.
Pay attention here!!! This is the definition of the #Network at work. This seem like small potatoes but some of these people will do anything to stay in the background. It will be very interesting to watch this play out.
I still stand by my prediction. The other boosters will file just like this guy did - just like the example he laid out for them to follow. And the judge conveniently pushed back the deadline until Friday so they will have time to file. So no matter what this "agreement" is Steve made with John Doe which makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, it won't mean squat when everyone else gets the same deal.
