Just a thought:

You've no doubt heard spokesmen, officials, lawyers, et al. say to the press at various times, "sorry, I can't comment about ongoing litigation."

The press, politicians, as well as the public at large, are going to be very interested in what MOC members, officers, and directors, and the rest of us say here and on other forums.  Discussions revealing information, be it facts or just attitudes, about an ongoing legal case in a public forum have ways of biting the parties.

Please think about that when you decide to post information pertaining to either the events leading up to the lawsuit, the strategies and tactics, the legal arguments, and other things that might be helpful to CADL or harmful to MOC and its likelihood of success in court.

All the best,

Stu

Very good advise... and I am making this a sticky.
Anything I post may be my opinion and not the law... you are responsible to do your own verification.

So, does that mean if we come across information that we think might help, not knowing if anyone else is aware, we should not post it?

Email it to the leadership of MOC board@michiganopencarry.org they can then send it to our attorneys.
