Intervenor-Plaintiff State of Texas' Motion for a Temporary InjunctionTravisBubenik
This document is a motion filed by the State of Texas seeking a temporary injunction against an emergency order (EO-13) issued by El Paso County Judge Ricardo Samaniego. The motion argues that EO-13 conflicts with and is preempted by Governor Greg Abbott's executive order GA-32 relating to COVID-19 restrictions. Specifically, the motion asserts that EO-13 is more restrictive than GA-32 in several ways, including ordering residents to stay at home, imposing a curfew, limiting gatherings, and restricting businesses beyond what is allowed in GA-32. The motion contends that Judge Samaniego lacked the authority to issue such an order in conflict with the Governor's order and that the State is likely

“An empowered organization is one in which individuals have the knowledge, skill, desire, and opportunity to personally succeed in a way that leads to collective organizational success.” -- Stephen Covey
“The leaders who work most effectively, it seems to me, never say ‘I.’ And that’s not because they have trained themselves not to say ‘I.’ They don't think ‘I.’ They think ‘we’; they think ‘team.’ They understand their job to be to make the team function. They accept responsibility and don’t sidestep it, but ‘we’ gets the credit.... This is what creates trust, what enables you to get the task done.” -- Peter F. Drucker
“Good leaders make people feel that they’re at the very heart of things, not at the periphery. Everyone feels that he or she makes a difference to the success of the organization. When that happens people feel centered and that gives their work meaning.” -- Warren G. Bennis

Steven Duesing, Nicole Mathis, Blain Gowing, et. al. v. The Attorney General ...Guy Boulianne
This is an application for judicial review of a decision by the Minister of Health to detain Canadian citizens returning from abroad in federal quarantine facilities. The applicants argue this decision violates several of their Charter rights, including liberty, security of the person, arbitrary detention, right to counsel, presumption of innocence, and reasonable bail. They are seeking an injunction to suspend mandatory confinement and release currently confined individuals, as well as declarations that the decision is unconstitutional and an order quashing the decision. The grounds are that the applicants had reasonable quarantine plans and the government has not shown detention is necessary to prevent disease spread.

1) The local court rules do not permit a response to a reply brief without court approval, which was not obtained.

3) The defendants argue the plaintiff's response brief should be stricken from the record.
The City of Reno and attorneys for the investment firm behind the South Reno Daybreak development have reached an agreement for the project to appear before council again this month.
Newport Pacific Land Company sued the city in February after the Reno City Council denied the development in November of 2018.
The development proposes 4,700 residential units in what project critics are calling the "last available space to store floodwaters and for natural percolation into the soil in the Steamboat Creek watershed."
Last week, however, it was announced that the developers and the Reno City Attorney's Office "have reached a mutual understanding regarding modification and remand of the Project Applications to City Council for possible approval on or before September 23, 2019."
This document summarizes a proposed rule by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and National Marine Fisheries Service to amend their regulations defining "destruction or adverse modification" of critical habitat under the Endangered Species Act. The current regulatory definition was found invalid by federal courts for being inconsistent with the Act. The proposed rule would replace the invalidated definition with one consistent with the Act and court opinions that critical habitat is intended to promote both the survival and recovery of listed species. Public comments will be accepted on the proposed rule and two other related documents until July 11, 2014.
The tax court case involved whether commissions Howard Slater received for transferring his annuity accounts qualified for nonqualified deferred compensation treatment under section 409A. The court found that the commissions did not meet the requirements of section 409A as they were not conditioned on future services and the plans did not meet the election requirements. Therefore, the commissions were required to be included in the Slaters' gross income for the 2005 tax year.
The Supreme Court of the Philippines denied a petition challenging a lower court's ruling that it did not have jurisdiction over a land dispute case. The lower courts found that the case involved an "agrarian dispute" as the land in question was covered by the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program and the dispute was over who qualified as farmer-beneficiaries of the land reform program. As agrarian disputes fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Department of Agrarian Reform, the lower courts ruled the case should be decided by that agency rather than the courts. The Supreme Court affirmed this decision, finding the lower courts properly applied the doctrine of primary jurisdiction that disputes over agrarian reform implementation belong first with the specialized agency, not the courts
This document is a Supreme Court decision regarding a petition filed by Ramon Yap to annul COA decisions disallowing various allowances and reimbursements paid to him in his capacity as Vice-President of Manila Gas Corporation. The COA affirmed the disallowances on the basis that the payments did not satisfy the "public purpose requirement" for the use of government funds. The Court denied Yap's petition, ruling that COA has broad authority to examine expenditures and is not limited to the auditor's original findings. Additionally, payments to government employees and officials must be authorized by law and serve a valid public purpose beyond merely compensating the recipient.

This complaint challenges a Special Coral Reef Ecosystem Fishing Permit issued by the National Marine Fisheries Service to Kona Blue Water Farms, Inc. to operate an ocean fish farm off the coast of Hawaii. The plaintiffs, KAHEA and Food & Water Watch, allege the permit violates the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, the National Environmental Policy Act, and the Administrative Procedure Act. They argue the environmental assessment conducted by the defendants was inadequate and did not properly consider cultural and environmental impacts of the project. The plaintiffs seek to have the permit declared illegal and enjoined.
Error in survey number, extent or catagory of land in the document is nota problem. James Joseph Adhikarathil Your Land Matter Consultant. 9447464502
A golden thread runs through all the decisions referred to

correctly or wrongly. Description may be given by reference to
village, locality, survey number, lekhom number, extent,
S.A.No.290/1999 17
measurements or boundaries. At times, descriptions may tally
pointing unerringly to a particular plot of land in which case there
will be no difficulty in locating the plot. Sometimes the various
descriptions given in a document or decree may be in conflict with
each other. In such a case, the court is called upon to adjudicate
on the identity of the exact plot intended to be dealt with in the
document or decree. No doubt, the court will at first try to
reconcile the various descriptions. If that be not possible, one or
more of the descriptions may have to be rejected and the other
decision rested only on the other description or descriptions. When
one of the descriptions is vague and uncertain and another
description is definite and certain, the latter may be preferred. If
none of the descriptions is vague or uncertain, that description
which is more certain and stable and least likely to have been
mistaken or inserted inadvertently must be preferred if it
sufficiently identified the subject matter of the transaction and the
other descriptions must be rejected as erroneous or inaccurate.
This is not a rule of law and therefore is not inflexible in character ;
it is a mere rule of construction which appears to be safe and
almost an infallable guide."

U N I C E F ( Nov. 2008) Comprehensive And Holistic Legislative Reform On...Genevieve Whitaker
This document discusses a human rights-based approach to comprehensive and holistic legislative reform on behalf of children's rights. It argues that such an approach must recognize children as rights holders, take a holistic view of civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights, and involve stakeholders in the reform process. The key principles of a human rights-based approach include universality of rights, interdependence and indivisibility of rights, non-discrimination, participation, and accountability. Legislative reform following these principles would result in a legal framework that effectively protects all children and enables the realization of all their rights.
