MISSOURI COURT OF APPEALS SOUTHERN DISTRICT 300 Hammons Parkway SPRINGFIELD, MISSOURI 65006 SANDRA L SKINNER Telephone CLERK 417-895-6811 CONNIE SALADIN CHIEF DEPUTY CLERK October 10, 1996 SUSAN PATTON DEPUTY CLERK Mr. Martin F. Lindstedt 338 Rabbit Track Road Granby, MO 64844 Re: State of Missouri ex rel. Martin F. Lindstedt, Relator v. Newton County Clerk Kay Baum, et al. Case No. 21279-1 Dear Mr. Lindstedt: Today the Court issued the following Order: "Now on this day, the Court takes up for consideration the 'Petition for Writ of Mandamus and Judicial Review of Election Laws,' and the Court, having seen and examined said Petition, and having been advised in the premises, does deny said application." Yours very truly, -s- SANDRA L. SKINNER, Clerk SLS:ks cc: Kay Baum, Newton County Clerk Rebecca Cook, Missouri Secretary of State.
Comments: As I suspected, the Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District, slimed me by giving me a mere denial of petition for mandamus. Never addressed was the petition for judicial review of election law, which would have required a more thorough written opinion. If judicial review would have been properly and legally done and the election laws ruled unconstitutional, the mandamus would have followed by default. It would have had to, since there would be no valid legal reason to keep me off the ballot. So the Missouri Court of Appeals took the easy way out by denying my mandamus.
I followed this judicial sliming with a Demand for this Court’s Finds of Fact and Conclusions of Law Justifying Court Decision in Above Case to the Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District. I did not expect or receive a response, and certainly didn't make any new friends, but it doesn't hurt to let them legalweasels on the court know you are on to them and their preserving the status quo for the politicians.
