The deposition hearing (i.e. the pre-trial) starts in the Auckland District Court on Monday, 1 September 2008. There is a hearing in the High Court in Auckland on 22 August, too. Several defendants have filed applications regarding the police affidavits that was used to gain search and interception warrants. This is likely to be held 'in chambers' and thus not open to the public. Second, the High Court will hear an application for bail variation for Valerie Morse and Emily Bailey that would allow them to associate. As it stands, Valerie and Emily have limited association as consented to by the Crown. They are seeking a removal of any restriction on association.

Christians Against ALL Terrorism in Brisbane have recently been attempting to exorcise the Raytheon Corporation from the dark spirits of greed, violence and deliberate indifference to injustice and human suffering.
After a series of three exorcisms, two arrestees were brought to court in late July and successfully defended a charge of 'disobeying a police direction' from the first exorcism. An hour later they were told that the charge of 'wilful damage' from the third exorcism had been dropped.
Unfortunately Raytheon is still producing weapons of mass destruction, so it looks like the exorcisms need to continue.
