   JCT: Greg, who lost his exemption because he had to move, a   
   Manson victim who'll be filing damages claim for the time he   
   was down, just passed on the message that when he got to the   
   Rossland Courthouse in BC:   
      
   THU JUNE 9 2016   
      
   Greg Magnusson:   
      
   details include... sitting in court for two hours and   
   watching... only learning about the list of names after.. haha   
   I was not on the list. perplexed left the courtroom and went   
   into a little room.   
      
   i gave the my file number to the lawyer and was told to take   
   the number he gave me to the registry office where the letter   
   was waiting for me. I did not see a judge or speak. did not   
   approach the bench   
      
   Criminal Registry Rossland Court file # 21390-1 police file #   
   16-630 our file number 3383288   
       "The Director of Public Prosecutions hereby directs the   
       Clerk of the Court to stay proceedings respecting the   
       above reference matter. A copy of the information is   
       attached for your reference. Yours truly, Ryan Carrier   
       Public Prosecution Service of Canada   
      
   They only gave me page 2 of 3. did not see a judge was not on   
   the list...   
   took me from 9-1130 to figure that out hahaha   
      
   Registry office had the paper in a file folder for me   
   right. the interesting part was all of the staff was different   
   than before. different prosecutor, different registry clerk,   
   different baliff   
   and yeah... did not get to speak at all   
      
   a side story.. after not being called for a couple of hours I   
   left the courtroom and went into one of the adjacent little   
   rooms... attached to the phone line on the floor is a strange   
   looking device... sort of like a wiretap bug so I looked at it   
   and pressed the top of it. Turns out it is a panic button...   
   police officer storms in and asks if I am allrigh.. smells   
   weed and gets me to show him the two grams I had on me. I   
   showed him the licence... he says its expired.. I say yeah,   
   that is why I am here. after i showed the doctors prescription   
   he gave back the 2 grams of weed. The license is a useless   
   piece of paper, but the prescription is taken as valid. Do not   
   push that button.. haha   
      
   The crown gave me nothing. There was no prosecutor for me.   
   That guy did not show up. I was not on the list. A defence   
   lawyer said he would see what was up. He took my file number   
   and gave me an info number 21390-1 to give to the Registry   
   desk... where none of the staff were to same as before. The   
   woman opened a file folder and gave me one piece of paper. it   
   was handed to me by the registry clerk   
   oh good... more time with the registry clerk... a different   
   person this time though   
   printed june 8.. yesterday   
      
   i served the quash... and that prosecutor did not show up   
   today and I was not on the list   
      
   The second time I was there I got the registrar to sign the   
   affidavit of service in the presence of the prosecutor while   
   he stood there and told me that it would not work./// a.k.a   
   legal advice? in front of the registrar.... who signed the   
   affidavit and refused to let me file the same motion that she   
   had signed   
      
   in fact, I asked him if he remembered what day I had seen him   
   and we both agreed that the day was in fact the day.   
   the government pamplet on the fax system appears to be a scam.   
   always busy + you are required to add the correct title page..   
   which does not appear to be available.. and you need to   
   provide a $10 fee... I will read about that some more.. but   
   really... believe in letter mail   
      
   first day of court... said nothing, possessing for purposes of   
   trafficking dropped.   
      
   second day of court tried to speak, judge got mad and said   
   adjourn or ??? I chose adjourn   
      
   third day of court... tried to enter the pre-plea motion...   
   crown did not have an ISP # no pre-plea without a charge   
      
   fourth day of court not on the list... found a lawyer gave the   
   lawyer my file number lawyer gave me an info # took the number   
   to the registry desk they gave me one piece of paper.   
   Probation officer looked happy... i told her I would miss our   
   little chats and she xeroxed the piece of paper.   
      
   thanks... they ducked... and you were right, it was fun   
      
   you likely already know all of this... but the numbers on   
   stays in BC are interesting... and there is a 12 month   
   clause... https://bccla.org/our_work/stays-of-proceedings/   
      
   I am flabbergasted by the bureaucratic system. The link I sent   
   you last night suggests that stays may not be constitutionally   
   valid but are considered absolute. We definitely scared them.   
      
   JCT: Another Crown backs down from the Smith-Allard BENO Quash   
   motion. 580-plant charge. It's not James Turner's 2,879-plant   
   withdrawal but it equals Ray Turmel beating his 500-plant   
   charge.
