SUPREME COURT OF THE U.S. - RULES ..Part VII. Practice and Procedure _________________________________________________________________ Rule 29. Filing and Service of Documents; Special Notifications; Corporate Listing * 1. Any document required or permitted to be presented to the Court or to a Justice shall be filed with the Clerk. * 2. A document is timely filed if it is sent to the Clerk through the United States Postal Service by first-class mail (including express or priority mail), postage prepaid, and bears a postmark showing that the document was mailed on or before the last day for filing. Commercial postage meter labels alone are not acceptable. If submitted by an inmate confined in an institution, a document is timely filed if it is deposited in the institution's internal mail system on or before the last day for filing and is accompanied by a notarized statement or declaration in compliance with 28 U. S. C. §1746 setting out the date of deposit and stating that first-class postage has been prepaid. If the postmark is missing or not legible, the Clerk will require the person who mailed the document to submit a notarized statement or declaration in compliance with 28 U. S. C. §1746 setting out the details of the mailing and stating that the mailing took place on a particular date within the permitted time. A document also is timely filed if it is forwarded through a private delivery or courier service and is actually received by the Clerk within the time permitted for filing. * 3. Any document required by these Rules to be served may be served personally or by mail on each party to the proceeding at or before the time of filing. If the document has been prepared as required by Rule 33.1, three copies shall be served on each other party separately represented in the proceeding. If the document has been prepared as required by Rule 33.2, service of a single copy on each other separately represented party suffices. If personal service is made, it shall consist of delivery at the office of the counsel of record, either to counsel or to an employee therein. If service is by mail, it shall consist of depositing the document with the United States Postal Service, with no less than first-class postage prepaid, addressed to counsel of record at the proper post office address. When a party is not represented by counsel, service shall be made on the party, personally or by mail. * 4. (a) If the United States or any federal department, office, agency, officer, or employee is a party to be served, service shall be made on the Solicitor General of the United States, Room 5614, Department of Justice, 10th St. and Constitution Ave., N. W., Washington, DC 20530. When an agency of the United States that is a party is authorized by law to appear before this Court on its own behalf, or when an officer or employee of the United States is a party, the agency, officer, or employee shall be served in addition to the Solicitor General. + (b) In any proceeding in this Court in which the constitutionality of an Act of Congress is drawn into question, and neither the United States nor any federal department, office, agency, officer, or employee is a party, the initial document filed in this Court shall recite that 28 U. S. C. §2403(a) may apply and shall be served on the Solicitor General of the United States, Room 5614, Department of Justice, 10th St. and Constitution Ave., N. W., Washington, DC 20530. In such a proceeding from any court of the United States, as defined by 28 U. S. C. §451, the initial document also shall state whether that court, pursuant to 28 U. S. C. §2403(a), certified to the Attorney General the fact that the constitutionality of an Act of Congress was drawn into question. See Rule 14.1(e)(v). + (c) In any proceeding in this Court in which the constitutionality of any statute of a State is drawn into question, and neither the State nor any agency, officer, or employee thereof is a party, the initial document filed in this Court shall recite that 28 U. S. C. §2403(b) may apply and shall be served on the Attorney General of that State. In such a proceeding from any court of the United States, as defined by 28 U. S. C. §451, the initial document also shall state whether that court, pursuant to 28 U. S. C. §2403(b), certified to the State Attorney General the fact that the constitutionality of a statute of that State was drawn into question. See Rule 14.1(e)(v). * 5. Proof of service, when required by these Rules, shall accompany the document when it is presented to the Clerk for filing and shall be separate from it. Proof of service shall contain, or be accompanied by, a statement that all parties required to be served have been served, together with a list of the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of counsel indicating the name of the party or parties each counsel represents. It is not necessary that service on each party required to be served be made in the same manner or evidenced by the same proof. Proof of service may consist of any one of the following: + (a) an acknowledgment of service, signed by counsel of record for the party served; + (b) a certificate of service, reciting the facts and circumstances of service in compliance with the appropriate paragraph or paragraphs of this Rule, and signed by a member of the Bar of this Court representing the party on whose behalf service is made or by an attorney appointed to represent that party under the Criminal Justice Act of 1964, see 18 U. S. C. §3006A(d)(6), or under any other applicable federal statute; or + (c) a notarized affidavit or declaration in compliance with 28 U. S. C. §1746, reciting the facts and circumstances of service in accordance with the appropriate paragraph or paragraphs of this Rule, whenever service is made by any person not a member of the Bar of this Court and not an attorney appointed to represent a party under the Criminal Justice Act of 1964, see 18 U. S. C. §3006A(d)(6), or under any other applicable federal statute. * 6. Every document, except a joint appendix or amicus curiae brief, filed by or on behalf of one or more corporations shall list all parent companies and nonwholly owned subsidiaries of each of the corporate filers. If there is no parent or subsidiary company to be listed, a notation to this effect shall be included in the document. If a list has been included in a document filed earlier in the case, reference may be made to the earlier document (except when the earlier list appeared in an application for an extension of time or for a stay), and only amendments to the list to make it current need be included in the document being filed. _________________________________________________________________ [Previous Section -] [Next Section +] [Overview] _________________________________________________________________

Infoseek search __________ ______ Help Navigation CLINTON ADVISER: NO MAJOR TAX CUT IN 1998 Tax Cut WASHINGTON (AllPolitics, Dec. 28) -- President Bill Clinton will not propose any across-the-board tax cut or push for any major overhaul of the tax system in his 1998 budget, a senior White House adviser said Sunday. But speaking on NBC's "Meet The Press," Rahm Emanuel also said that Clinton would not necessarily veto any tax cut sent to the White House by Congress, provided it didn't bust an existing spending agreement that would balance the budget by 2002. "If others have an approach, we'd love to see it," he said. "(But) where are they going to pay for it? Are they talking about cuts in health care? Are they talking about cuts in senior programs?" Some Wall Street analysts have forecast a surplus of as much as $40 billion in the current fiscal year, which runs through September 30 -- a surplus that proponents of a tax cut say could be used to pay for it. Emanuel But Emanuel said the White House believes that no decisions about what to do with the surplus should be made until a surplus actually materializes. "Washington should not return to its bad habits of spending money it doesn't have," he said. "That's what got us into trouble in the first place in the 1980s." In addition to tax cuts, a number of Republicans, including House Majority Leader Dick Armey and 1996 presidential candidate Steve Forbes, have also proposed so-called "flat tax" plans that would radically alter the income tax system. Others want to replace income tax entirely with a national sales tax. Even Democratic House Minority Leader Dick Gephardt has a modified "flat tax" plan that would simplify the system and reduce tax rates for middle and lower income taxpayers. But Sunday, Emanuel made it clear the White House wasn't looking to make any such radical changes in the tax code in 1998. "We finally have gotten the deficit under wraps and lifted it off the back of the economy," he said. "We shouldn't do anything reckless or irresponsible." However, Clinton will propose new tax credits targeted toward helping middle-class families pay for child care, Emanuel said. Reuters contributed to this report. Advertise on AllPolitics.

The London Sunday Telegraph says the philanthropist has become a British citizen and revoked his U.S. citizenship. Sources in the British government confirm the move. Getty is 65 and has lived in Britain for 25 years. During that time, he's become one of the country's major benefactors. In 1986, he even received an honorary knighthood from Queen Elizabeth II. The Forbes magazine list of the 400 richest Americans estimates Getty's fortune at $1 billion. _________________________________________________________________ Infoseek search ____________________ ____ ____ _________________________________________________________________ rule Message Boards Sound off on our message boards & chat [INLINE] Click here for TIME daily rule To the top © 1997 Cable News Network, Inc.

Guns: H&K, G3, 7.62 v 5.56 [Guns]
by Jim Choate 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Hi, I finaly got around to doing some research on Tim's claim regarding H&K's G3 being a 5.56 round while the various folks I have been talking to refer to it as a 7.62. Tim's claim that the 7.62 (.308) is actualy the HK-91/G1 and not the G3 is correct. The confusion comes from the fact that a few years ago the German Bundswehr quit using the HK and began using the FN/G3 which is 7.62. I had assumed the G3 it was refering to was the H&K and when I talked to the local gun nut he thought I was talking about the current model because I had made a comment a while back about it being used by the Germans as their standard infantry model and being .308. So, H&K 91/G1 is 7.62 (.308) (old standard issue) H&K 93/G3 is 5.56 (.223) FN/G3 is 7.62 (.308) (current standard issue) My suggested rifle *is* the H&K 91/G1 which is .308 and the local gun shop says used they run in the $1500 to $3000 range. New ones aren't imported. ____________________________________________________________________ | | | Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make | | violent revolution inevitable. | | | | John F.

So what you are saying, though I doubt you realize it, is that a citizen *can't* sue 2 or more states as a group. They *must* sue singly and in the individual state courts. Of course, this isn't explicity described either, so where does this authority come from? This means there is no way to sue states as a group for their actions in regards to relations to the federal government. So the federal government can require the states to do all kinds of things and I as a citizen and effected by those actions can't sue the states but only the federal government. Interesting hole. I wonder if it will hold up. ____________________________________________________________________ | | | Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make | | violent revolution inevitable. | | | | John F.

List of reliable remailers

I operate a remailer pinging service which collects detailed information about remailer features and reliability. To use it, just finger remailer-list(a)kiwi.cs.berkeley.edu There is also a Web version of the same information, plus lots of interesting links to remailer-related resources, at: http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~raph/remailer-list.html This information is used by premail, a remailer chaining and PGP encrypting client for outgoing mail. For more information, see: http://www.c2.org/~raph/premail.html For the PGP public keys of the remailers, finger pgpkeys(a)kiwi.cs.berkeley.edu This is the current info: REMAILER LIST This is an automatically generated listing of remailers. The first part of the listing shows the remailers along with configuration options and special features for each of the remailers. The second part shows the 12-day history, and average latency and uptime for each remailer.

Note: I'm relying on the word of the remailer operator here, and haven't verified the reord info myself. mon Remailer has been known to monitor contents of private email. filter Remailer has been known to filter messages based on content. If not listed in conjunction with mon, then only messages destined for public forums are subject to filtering. Raph Levien
