<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
Congressman Bennie Thompson (D-MS) is asking the Department of Justice to investigate recent events in Hinds County, Mississippi, where a judge is refusing to allow public defenders to represent their clients in his court.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
Judge Jeffrey Weill seems to believe public defenders should be more deferential to him and less passionate in the representation of their clients. Apparently disapproving of the zealous advocacy of one public defender, Judge Weill removed the attorney from all of her cases. </div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I checked out the Utah State Bar website and found out that the Bar has </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">moved to a <span style="color: blue;">photo- ID card</span> for members of the Utah State Bar. The new photo ID card is now issued as part of the newly admitted attorney process. The old, non-photo ID cards are being phased out.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">You can elect to not have an image on the card but that may impact your ability to access law enforcement areas such as the jails or the use of court access lines that are dedicated to attorneys.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">If you want to get a photo ID card, it will cost you <span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="color: red;">FIVE BUCKS ($5)</span> </span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">You can take care of it in person (it will take about 10 minutes to be completed) :</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Utah Law & Justice Center<br />645 South 200 East<br />Salt Lake City, Utah 84111<br />e: </span><a href="mailto:info@utahbar.org"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">info@utahbar.org</span></a><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">p: 801.531.9077</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />M-F 8:00 - 5:00, closed for State and Federal holidays.</span><br />
<em><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span></em><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Or you can do it online: <a href="http://www.utahbar.org/members/request-a-replacement-bar-membership-id-card">Photo ID for $5</a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">You will need to fill out a form and submit a photo, then pick up your card.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">A lot of the state bars are moving in this direction. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">By the way, some state bars do not charge for cards like this one <a href="http://www.jud.ct.gov/attyphoto">http://www.jud.ct.gov/attyphoto</a> or this one <a href="http://www.gand.uscourts.gov/bar/attorneyid.php">www.gand.uscourts.gov/bar/attorneyid.php</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">And some state bars do not have photo IDs.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">As soon as I get my new photo ID card, I will let you know what it looks like. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dear Friends:</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">If you play video games, you know how you start out on the journey, things start getting tough, you meet opposition, and then ta-dah, you suddenly have the chance to get more coins, fly and jump, be a super ninja, and you are super-charged? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<a href="https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQp76nGd2f89uadNweLh8BpSa_45MDvdMPBSUIxuOxz8zhBj3SL" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" class="rg_i" data-src="https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQp76nGd2f89uadNweLh8BpSa_45MDvdMPBSUIxuOxz8zhBj3SL" data-sz="f" height="112" name="EzIa2zDrORgBGM:" src="https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQp76nGd2f89uadNweLh8BpSa_45MDvdMPBSUIxuOxz8zhBj3SL" style="margin-top: 0px;" width="200" /></a><span style="font-family: Arial;">If you are a serious gamer, use it or lose it, because soon you will be back to normal, and the extra power disappears. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Just like video games, we are halfway through elections, and you are super-charged. You have the <a href="http://youtu.be/S58sVwbyRVs">POWER OF ONE VOTE</a>. Use it or lose it, folks, after the polls close Oct.11, it will be back to normal. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<img class="rg_i" data-sz="f" name="tVkg5-mshnP7YM:" src="https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSROTPApPX9Q2MdR_KECD7gWmmRV6jbZ3SOHFmMRhOFqojyZqbJ" style="height: 168px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; width: 300px;" /><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<em><span style="font-family: Arial;"></span></em><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Winners only win when people with the POWER OF ONE VOTE, collectively use their POWER. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />

<em><span style="font-family: Arial;"></span></em><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are thousands of attorneys out there who hold the POWER don't waste your <a href="http://youtu.be/S58sVwbyRVs">POWER of ONE VOTE</a>.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Without an election, the Bar would simply appoint commissioners to represent you. Don't waste your POWER.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em></em></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Thanks to all those who have already used their POWER and voted for me! Janise </em></span><br />

Online Ballot Glitch & How to Solve It<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Online ballots for the 3rd District Bar Elections were emailed to attorneys on Sept. 26 Attorneys reported to me that they did not get my campaign messages or their ballots from the Bar. I did not get my own message or ballot and had to go and track it down so I could vote for myself-- and yes, it was a huge pain!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I reported the glitch to the Bar, but in the meantime, polls close Oct 11 at 5pm, so here is how to bypass the glitch and vote before the deadline:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. Check your email inbox, spam, and filtered mail for your ballot.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. If you can't find your ballot, call the Bar at (801) 531-9077 and tell them you want to vote and insist on assistance. You're a lawyer, so keep on it, and cut through the red tape.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. VOTE for <a href="http://www.utahbar.org/bar-operations/run-for-commission/3rd-division-candidacy-statement-janise-macanas">Janise Macanas</a> (that's me) and make sure you get confirmation of your vote.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. Contact 5 of your friends and explain all of the above.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNg8bOXybt_kS396_YxNII5CkopPuG94OEqTGUM4Po9P5WYcSRvpOrfyOIaEeynhhBpHAvDB9INlZnSGw7FlK1yRKd3vmYIUbyUAqJKAHckgwNpgukX7qw74XVl2iWcMnVxp5kKpImxOva/s1600/photo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a><br /></div>
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNg8bOXybt_kS396_YxNII5CkopPuG94OEqTGUM4Po9P5WYcSRvpOrfyOIaEeynhhBpHAvDB9INlZnSGw7FlK1yRKd3vmYIUbyUAqJKAHckgwNpgukX7qw74XVl2iWcMnVxp5kKpImxOva/s1600/photo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNg8bOXybt_kS396_YxNII5CkopPuG94OEqTGUM4Po9P5WYcSRvpOrfyOIaEeynhhBpHAvDB9INlZnSGw7FlK1yRKd3vmYIUbyUAqJKAHckgwNpgukX7qw74XVl2iWcMnVxp5kKpImxOva/s1600/photo.JPG" height="200" width="200" /></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Since there is a glitch which apparently affects government attorneys and more, the best chance I have to win is by using the voting tree strategy, where friends tell friends and spread the word. Please join the "Janise Macanas Voting Tree" and get the word out that voting has started and please track down your ballot. Thanks to all my friends and peeps who are putting my election message on FB and Twitter and who are out there watching my back. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Below is a message that you can copy and paste in your email and send to your friends:</span><br />
<br />
<em>"Dear Friends, </em><br />
<em>My friend Janise Macanas is running for 3rd District Bar Commissioner. She is qualified for the position and very hard working. She will not raise bar dues and will watch out for us when important decisions are made. Online ballots have already been emailed and voting runs from Sept 27 - Oct 11. Attorneys are reporting that they have not received any election messages or their ballots. If you cannot track down your ballot, call the Bar at (801-531-9077) and tell them you want to vote. To view Janise's campaign message visit <a href="http://www.utahbar.org/bar-operations/run-for-commission/3rd-division-candidacy-statement-janise-macanas/">http://www.utahbar.org/bar-operations/run-for-commission/3rd-division-candidacy-statement-janise-macanas/</a>. I am confident Janise will do her part to bring positive changes to the Bar once elected. Please do your your part and help her win by voting. I already voted for Janise and encourage you to do the same. </em><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;">The <a href="http://www.law.utah.edu/">S. J. Quinney College of Law</a> is getting an extreme makeover to the tune of $60 million.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial;">If you have not been to the campus recently, things are quickly moving along in the construction zone. The hardhats of Big D Construction have fenced off the site and a new law school structure is well underway. This is what you see now, south of the main building as you look towards the stadium. Parking near the school is pretty much non-existent.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJIxc6z3Hleq444tUhwExbthXQewLLM7TiyxHG-ECVGul8pbJd2B45JqShILZfttr7kvl5G89wEb4hdaBMktEnRpOWgI5yS0kJTZSqHiZOMopHV5TUfYLhC8fMKcAvLHO0uZqh2Q-3tjaI/s1600/photo_1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJIxc6z3Hleq444tUhwExbthXQewLLM7TiyxHG-ECVGul8pbJd2B45JqShILZfttr7kvl5G89wEb4hdaBMktEnRpOWgI5yS0kJTZSqHiZOMopHV5TUfYLhC8fMKcAvLHO0uZqh2Q-3tjaI/s1600/photo_1.JPG" /></a></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">To get to the main building and library, a nifty little ramp was constructed on the north side of the school to take you to the new entrance. Once you get inside, things are pretty much the same. </span><br />
