The appeals are found below. More signatures are needed. You can sign here if you want.
I join in the appeal which I consent to have the following appeals prepared by Brittany Kosin or by someone else chosen by Petition organizers on behalf of the signatories:
1. The Libertarian National Committee’s decision to vote down the motion of Mr. Redpath to reinstate Caryn Ann Harlos to her position as LNC Secretary based upon the JC decision on 12/3/24 which states:
Holding
As either “failure to perform the duties of office” or “gross malfeasance” is an implicit element of every Charge, and as none of the Specifications allege conduct that can reasonably be found to meet either one, and as a trial may be held only upon the preferral of valid charges and specifications, all four Specifications, the two Charges they support, and the two trial-related resolutions are all hereby declared null and void for failure to allege conduct that can reasonably be characterized as rising to a standard required for prosecution set forth in LNC Policy Manual 1.01 (4).*
and declare that failure of the vote violates at least but not limited to Bylaw 7.12 which vests power in the Judicial Committee to declare LNC decisions null and void. Because the charges were nullified, the trial was nullified and Caryn Ann Harlos was the valid LNC Secretary at said meeting. Therefore, she was unlawfully prevented from participating in the LNC meeting on December 7, 2024, and from exercising all her rights and duties since December 3, 2024.
*as it was in effect at the time of the now voided Charges and subsequent void trial.
2. The Libertarian National Committee’s decision to adopt the Policy Manual revision moved by Mr. Malagon to amend Section 1.01.4 “Removal from Office” and replace it the current language with:
Any Party Officer or At-Large Member may be removed by motion for any cause the National Committee deems potentially harmful to the Party.
as being violative of multiple Bylaws including but not limited to Articles 6.1, 6.7, 7.3, 7.5 and 16.
For both appeals, additional Bylaws violations may be included in the Petitions and subsequent filings.
Hi George, correction, I am assisting with signatures and some writing but these are Brittany Kosin’s at this point. I assisted D’Orazio with his but he was primary appellant. I will not be arguing them except perhaps one point, but several others will be. I am very likely to be a mere observer.
Harlos=Trotsky… done… done… done-ski!
I signed it.
Thank you Andy.
Isn’t this quickly becoming Groundhog Day?
I think she has legal action as a member of the party, regardless of whether her suspension was still in effect. She was prevented from entering the room, even to observe.
This was a public meeting.
Stewart I was allowed after it started. I was only kept out until a minute or two after because, as Adrian bragged, they thought I was going to storm the table or something (though I said all along I was there in peace) and had someone to intimidate me.
What do you mean its a public meeting?
The JC just ruled that the LNC can set the rules for removal. The LNC did just that.
Did they change the rules? If so, are they applying the change ex post facto, ot after the fact?
No, nothing has been adopted under the new rule.
