i just received an email notification from the california appellate court hearing the wt appeal of the conti case:.
the case has been fully briefed.. the case is on the conference list.. the oral argument waiver notice has been sent.. .
i'm not well versed in the process or these terms.
Vidiot: The motivation of the WTS to be heard by the Supreme Court is not a factor in its being granted a hearing. The US Supreme Court would have to find that Watchtower's case is worthy of their time. Likewise, with the California State Supreme Court. Unlike the appellate courts, the Watchtower can't simply file an appeal and be heard in the higher courts.
With Rick Simons requesting oral argument it's highly unlikely Watchtower would waive being heard.
Oral argument has not taken place yet. The court will set a date for oral argument now that the briefing has been completed.
ok jw leaks, do your thing..
The judges don't deliberate until after oral argument. The court should be setting an oral argument date shortly. It's usually somewhere between 30 to 90 days from now.

have you ever come across words that resonate with you?
it doesn't have to be a great gem of wisdom, just something that is meaningful to you.. please share, and if you want to, tell us why it's meaningful to you.. here is something that made me nod when i first read it.... .
"fortunate are those who have learned to see, in the wild things of nature, something to be loved, something to be wondered at, something to be reverenced, for they have found the key to a never-failing source of recreation and refreshment".

if you were, you'll remember how happening it was..
Hey Designs: I introduced Greg Coleman (Bud's son) to his wife (G*** B****s), Long Beach, right?) during a break between sets of a band we were all playing in. Played a few wedding receptions at Bateman Hall. Also saw the Carpenters play at a Witness wedding reception at the Whittier Women's Club.
Our family used to go with Ben Homer and his wife Danni to Phoenix every Christmas to hang out with a doctor whose family became Witnesses. Lox and Bagels on Christmas morning, an endless stream of jokes with Yiddish punch-lines and then swimming in the afternoon.
Scotoma: Used to hear about the East Coast party scene. Thanks for confirming that the stories were true. The only thing we had that you guys didn't was a high percentage of drop-dead gorgeous surfer blondes with the collective personaltiy of a small fern.
after being a witness for 40 years, i now find myself disfellowshipped.. i have had a number of doubts for a few years now, but still feel as if i'm living my life in the "t minus " to armageddon spector.. my parents are in their 80's and my dear mother is in very bad health.
i was allowed to pop through - about once a month to make sure my parents were ok and for them to see their grandchildren.
this all ended after the july watchtower article and especially since the district convention - with all the "counsel" on associating with disfellowshipped family members.. around 6 weeks ago, my dad asked me point blank why i wasn't trying to get reinstated.
I would go to their residence, knock on the door and ask whoever answers about your mother's health. You are not bound Watchtower rules and your father's wishes do not trump his daughter's need to know the condition of her mother.
if you were, you'll remember how happening it was..
Jam & Eyeuse2b: I went to 'em all: Hollywood Hills, East L.A. (those were generally the best), Orange County, SF Valley, etc., etc. I'm sure I knew the group from Santa Monica although I stayed away from horses. If either of you would pm me, I'd like to see if I remember you.
Coffee: I knew Jack. Really good musician.
GMA: Re your husband; I might remember him. Can you pm me with his name?
Besty & Oub: You're both too young to know what I'm talking about (and too innocent).
