DESCRIPTION:Long Haul supporters and anyone interested in limiting police raids against 
 activist community centers are invited to attend the first Court hearing on 
 Long Haul’s court case against the FBI and UC Berkeley police.  The 
 hearing is set for September 4 at 9 a.m. before Judge White, 450 Golden 
 Gate, courtroom 11 on the 19th Floor.  \n\nLong Haul and East Bay Prisoner 
 Support filed a federal lawsuit January 14 in response to an August 27, 
 2008 police raid on the Long Haul community center in Berkeley by a joint 
 terrorism task force composed of University of California police, sheriffs 
 and the FBI.   The police seized all computers at Long Haul after breaking 
 in with guns drawn to execute a search warrant as`part of an investigation 
 of allegedly threatening emails allegedly sent to UC Berkeley animal 
 researchers from a public-access computer connected to the internet at Long 
 Haul.\n\nIt is clear that the police never would have gotten such a broad 
 search warrant to seize every computer at the Berkeley Public Library if 
 the email in question had come from the public library, rather than from a 
 radical Infoshop.\n\nThe lawsuit contends that the police violated the 
 first and fourth amendment (freedom of assembly/speech and freedom from 
 unreasonable searches and seizures) as well as the federal Privacy 
 Protection Act, which protects publishers from search and seizure except in 
 the most narrow circumstances. Long Haul publishes Slingshot newspaper / 
 East Bay Prisoner Support publishes a newsletter.)  \n\nOn July 2, the 
 government defendants filed a motion to dismiss the case.  On July 24, 
 Attorneys from the Electronic Frontier Foundation and the American Civil 
 Liberties Union representing Long Haul and East Bay Prisoner Support filed 
 an opposition to the motion which argues the merits of the case.\n Click 
 here to see the attorney's  filed opposition.  \n\nBeating the 
 government’s motion to dismiss is the first step in prosecuting the 
 lawsuit against the outrageous police raid on Long Haul.  \n\nOn September 
 4, join us in the Courtroom while we resist police raids on our 
 communities.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2009/07/31/18613536.php
