This is really huge!! Our legal defense team, with Tony Serra leading the charge, will present our Motion to Dismiss all charges. \n\nHaving the entire courtroom to ourselves can be an immense boon, and we want to make sure that WE PACK THE COURTROOM!!! That means that we really need every single one of you to be there. Each of you will have an extremely meaningful presence at this critical legal cross-roads, as this court case stands to set strong legal precedence around the use of adverse possession laws as a means to shelter. We need to show the court, the judge and rest of Oakland that our momentum won't be dragged down by the court's stalling tactics. \n\nTwice now the Land Action 4 have stood before the discerning eye of a judge with a huge show of community support, twice now the powers that be have told us that they didn't have time to listen to our plight. And finally, we have been promised by those powers that be that we will be heard!!! But, promises from “on high” only get us so far….\n\nSome have said that our Motion reads like a HOUSING RIGHTS MANIFESTO and no doubt Tony Serra will orate it as such with fire and passion!! \n\nSo, please join The Land Action 4, our legal defense team and this powerful community of people who care about the basic human right of all folx to have shelter on MAY 20TH, at 9AM in DEPT 10 of the RENE C DAVIDSON COURTHOUSE.\n\n*********\nIn case you are just tuning into this Bay Area Housing Crisis Drama... \nHere is the full back story as told by defendants Patrick Xu and Wren Hyde\n\nThe interview begins at minute 35:54\nhttps://kpfa.org/player/?audio=227703\n\nOn April 8th during the show Living Room, defendant Steven Dicaprio and attorneys Walter Riley and Dan Siegel talked about the Land Action 4 case specifically and address the political and economic side of the current Housing Crisis.\n\nInterview begins at minute 30:17\nhttps://kpfa.org/episode/living-room-april-8-2016/\n\n*********\n\nAND....
