Part of a letter from Richard. He is fustrated he can't get his appeals typed up. He has been banned from the law library.



"It's not that I can lose here-I can't , and I have no computer/printer and I take such pride in my work that I want to hand them what meets thier standard. I put 26 afidavits in Denver -that I really don't think there was one spelling error in as I fixed them - I just didn't put it down until I checked the word. and I was on top so I felt great. I was happier, had lots of money, things that make me happy. I had and I take pride in what I do. So I was setting examples then in my work.

Well I am handwriting here I have no access to court not even an electric typewriter. All they have here for general population are those 100 year old manuals and I refuse , they punch holes in the paper on zeros etc. It is a mockery of justice for a very important ordeal................."


He goes on about how difficult it is to use symblos like subsection which I don't think I have on my computer. And foot notes...

Can you imagine a place not having electric typewriters? The highschool at my town just threw away 100's of them because they were "OUTDATED"

TWO IDEAS:
1.WOULD IT BE POSSIBLE TO START SOME LOCAL DRIVES TO COLLECT ELECTRIC TYPEWRITERS AND PRESENT THEM TO THE PRISONS?
2. WHAT ABOUT OFFERING A SERVICE TO RECEIVE HANDWRITTEN AFFIDAVITS AND DOCUMENTS FOR INMATES AND TYPE THEM FOR THEM AND MAIL BACK TO THEM ?

JUST SOME IDEAS....

that would be an idea.. i have done that for some of ant's friends.. it is totally appreicatied and it helps them get there stuff done right..

I've typed Darrells papers too. When I hav more time, I'll offer my 'typing service' to others too. Unfortunally this takes a lot of time. But it's appreciated and worth to do.

Well if you haven't noticed I am a horrid typist. LOL
I would have so many errors on his legal draft I would be qucikly fired. I would like to see about donating electric typewriters.
maybe the GoodWill would make us a deal if they have any?

sounds like a possibility--

sherri

ps-don't tell anyone but i type using only three fingers on each hand-cannot use my pinky or ring finger....?

YEAH YOU NEED TO SEE IF THE PRISON WILL ALLOW THE DONATIONS, HATE TO SEE ALL THAT WORK DONE AND THEN THEY DO NOT ALLOW THEM TO COME IN TO THE PRISON
