In the School, you pay a maximum of $10 per month for being added to our private email list. I then give high priority to questions which you post to me, and anyone else on the list. We maintain your privacy and will not disclose your name or email address to the other students, without your permission. We also reserve the right to broadcast to everyone our answers to your best questions. But, the priority which students receive is second to the priority we must give to paying clients who have retained the professional services of the firm. Lately, we had to tell the students that the OPENING BRIEF we were asked to write for the Eighth Circuit would require our total concentration for about 5 days; it turned out to require about 7 solid days, in part because of some collating errors at the local printer. Such is the way of the world :) and you'll tell me names of >people who have used the law firm so i can talk to them, The Supreme Law Firm is interested primarily in cases which have significant constitutional issues. We reserve the right to decide if and when a student question crosses into an area which requires professional time. For example, we do not permit people to enroll in the school, when their real purpose is to obtain inexpensive legal services. So far, only a few have crossed the line, and they have agreed with our decisions in this regard. So, I don't think we have been at all arbitrary when it comes to refusing free legal services. If you want to contact one or more of our clients, we would need from you a brief description of your case, and we would then seek permission of the client(s) to disclose their name(s) to you. We do our best to respect the law which makes privacy a fundamental Right. This is not always easy, because privacy is a sorely overlooked Right in contemporary America. So, it is not appropriate for you, for example, to request the name(s) of all of our clients. We would decline to provide the entire list, on principle. You should also know that our constitutional work has been actively scuttled by agents known and unknown to us during the past 12 months. Several clients were persuaded to believe a vicious lie that I am a government agent; I am not. That gave those particular clients cause to refuse payment for services tendered, rendered, and accepted (because the clients signed and filed the briefs in question). So, I reserve the right not to disclose those clients to you, because I don't care to throw gasoline on a fire that is already burning. The bottom line here is that I have been stiffed for approximately $50,000 in legal work which I performed during the past 12 months, and now I must be super cautious about any new cases. I have rent, telephone, power, gasoline, and food bills. I do need to wash clothes on occasion too :) I hope this helps. /s/ Paul Mitchell http://www.supremelaw.com and you'll >provide cases i can look up? Yes, of course. We also sell certain publications because we hold the common law copyrights to these works. For example, "The Federal Zone: Cracking the Code of Internal Revenue" has citations to over 200 key American court cases. We do our best to provide you with exact citations at all times, including the correct Internet URL's to the vast resources which are already available in the fields of law and American History. For example, "The Constitution Annotated" is a fantastic reference work which was commissioned by an Act of Congress. These are works which you will want to know about, and we are happy to direct you right to them. In some cases, we have the text of a particular case already on disk, and for the asking, we will send you that text. Dyett v. Turner, Utah Supreme Court (1968), is an excellent example of this sort of text; we keep this decision in our private law library, because of its immense significance in the context of the so-called 14th amendment. We are currently managing about five gigabytes of text like the Dyett case. You must appreciate that "remote learning," as it is called, is relatively new to the world, so we always find ourselves pioneering in one way or another. We appreciate it very much when students make one or more significant contributions. I like to recall my own experience in graduate school, where the students and professors were on a first-name basis. We all learn from each other, provided that everyone is properly motivated, and minimally capable. One word in closing: we do not debug email problems under the auspices of the school. If and when you have email problems, we direct you to your Internet Service Provider ("ISP") and/or the software vendor who writes and sells the software. After 26 years in the computer industry, I know how time-consuming such problems can be, and it makes all the difference in the world to leave these problems to the experts. In this way, we manage our time to concentrate on what we now do best -- constitutional law and its contemporary applications to state and federal conduct towards Citizens of the several states of the Union. I hope this helps. /s/ Paul Mitchell http://www.supremelaw.com ======================================================================== Paul Andrew Mitchell : Counselor at Law, federal witness B.A., Political Science, UCLA; M.S., Public Administration, U.C.
