Status of Appeal 9/12/08
Hello Everyone,
We have another update for you on the status of the appeal. The Attorney General's office filed their revised brief and resubmitted it to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit on 8/21/08. Our attorneys requested an extension and will file their response on 9/19/08.
Our apologies for the delay in posting some of these updates. Sometimes it takes longer than we'd like in order to get time to work on the blog because of travel for work or other issues. Recently Gene took a spill on the stairs (aided by the cat who thought that was a good place for a nap) and dislocated and fractured his right ankle. Surgery and a cast have him mobile again. Now in order to visit Brandon, he needs a note from the doctor stating that the screws and a plate are supposed to be there. Instead of going through the metal detector he will need to have a wand run over that that area. This is still doable though and we are grateful his injury was not worse.
Brandon is doing all right. There is nothing new to report about his living conditions. He works, he reads, he listens to music, he exercises and focuses as much time as possible on his artwork. On a sad note, his grandfather recently passed away. They were close. These things happen when someone is in prison. Life and time moves on. With love for Jerry's memory we close for now. Thank you all for your kind and caring support.
Regards,
Gene and Janice Hein
