What does this all mean? Nothing. They could have drafted a more fair response and narrowed the controversy. They chose not to do so. This is their right as defendants. But I find it shameful that our government litigates in a manner calculated to waste the time of the courts rather than achieve justice.
Just because they deny facts or law does not alter either. If they wish to go to trial, we will line up the court with witnesses who can testify as to the harm suffered.
Agreed, they have strong legal arguments. the strongest one being the separation of powers - normally - court will not tell an agency how to run its business. Nevertless, it is upto the court to intervene or not. That is why we are here, in court.
What will we do? We will fight - win or lose. And as a community, we will never again be treated with disregard. We will try always to fight for the right cause - win or lose. It is the struggle that is important.
We must simultaneously approach Congress for help and not just fight on the judicial front.
The first big test in this litigation would be the determination on the class action. Let us see where that goes.
Hang tight. I will keep you informed.
We need some more leadership amongs you folks. More people to plan, organize, move.
Just my two cents. My warmest regards to all of you.
