DESCRIPTION:This week marks the final week of hearings for the historic 3 judge panel 
 on prison overcrowding in California state prisons.  Throughout the trial, 
 the torturous conditions California prisoners live under and the lack of 
 real action on the part of the State to change conditions have been 
 exposed. \nIn this final week of the hearing, the judges are hearing about 
 possible ways to reduce the number of prisoners, including possible early 
 prisoner releases.  For the most recent coverage of the hearings, see the 
 following NY Times article Judges to Decide Whether Crowded California 
 Prisons Are Unconstitutional \nWe had an amazing rally on the first day of 
 the trial on November 18th, with roughly 50 former prisoners, loved ones of 
 prisoners, and our supporters demanding prisoner release and an end to the 
 inhumane treatment of people inside.  \nWe want to make sure our voices and 
 demands are heard again as the trial is winding up and continue to draw 
 attention to the truly cruel and unusual conditions our loved ones are 
 living under because of out of control overcrowding inside.  People who are 
 able to can go up to the courtroom after the rally to sit in on the 
 hearings on the 19th Floor in the Ceremonial Courtroom.  \nPlease join us 
 in demanding that they release eligible lifers, low-risk aging prisoners, 
 domestic violence survivors, and medically incapacitated prisoners NOW!
