COOL IS HEATING UP……
- U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington threw out a
previous ruling by a three judge panel that ruled
against our legal challenge.
- In a very rare legal moment, all 11 judges on the
court will now reconsider the basis of our
argument on the constitutional question of
corporate free speech.

- Counsel representing the plaintiffs (CPC and the
Canadian Cattlemen’s Association being two of the
nine) are working with clients on amicus (‘friends of
the court’) briefs to support our own briefs.
- Briefs should be in before the end of April and oral
arguments will be presented May 19. The court has
not indicated a date at which a decision would be
issued.
- A very long process. Very good support by the Feds.
