Court Order Dismissing All Charges in State v. Jason Talley
Here.
Here.
Legal land is never fun.
The costumed men, habitual threats levied, ridiculous formal rituals, and attempts to force me to respect a system I abhor is enough to drive me crazy. It doesn’t because I don’t allow it to, because if it does they are winning and we all know I don’t want that! However, I must admit it is taking up a certain amount of my time and, worse, my energy. Legal land sucks. It truly is the worst part of civil disobedience. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction, and I choose to live free with the knowledge that, in one way or another, I will pay the price.
In the past week, I have been conversing via e-mail with some the men who are prosecuting me. I have copied the correspondence below for public perusal. I am feeling confused because my need to understand and be understood is not being met. It would make life more wonderful for me and meet my need of understanding to receive constructive feedback regarding ideas on how to proceed.

E-mail 5: (Prosecutors’ “Final Offer”) April 17, 2012
Dear Mr. Horton,
My e-mail to you dated April 12, 2012 and sent at 9:46 AM (see below) constitutes my and Attorney Webb’s final offer prior to trial. Regarding the charges Attorney McLaughlin is prosecuting, you will need to contact him directly.
Should the matters being prosecuted by me proceed to trial, all charges will be brought forward for trial, and, should the State prevail, the State is, obviously, not bound by the proposed resolution below.

I didn’t really appreciate Brad’s recent blog headline ordering the public to stand at Talley’s trial this morning. First, the court never made such an order – apparently, Brad was making the order on his own.
Despite Brad’s order, at least five people stayed seated this morning in Cheshire “superior” court. No one should stand for men in robes who harm others. Big thanks to the heroes who stayed seated in a court where robed men have kidnapped people for not standing as well as having uniformed men threaten those who remain seated.
Case dismissed without prejudice, over the objection of the State.
Thank you to Assistant County Attorney John Webb and New Hampshire Associate Attorney General Richard Head for being both cordial and helpful adversaries in the legal process. Judge Barry was extremely professional as well, so I thank him also.
Congratulations to Jason Talley and thanks to all the anonymous lawyers who took time to comment, call, and offer advice!
