'Just too dangerous for people to be up and about bumping into things.  Better for them if we restrict them to their beds'.  I know that is a stretch but that is how it feels when I can't even use a shovel in the creek.  Jerks!  Anyway, I want to get a rental or maybe some land somewhere.  Looking...

23 Replies and 17641 Views End California’s statewide dredging ban  17641  23 Started by  bradjones@ca.rr.com
(Topic has multiple pages1 2 )
More than 120 miners representing the GPAA, LDMA, SPMA, WMA and PLP showed up at the California Superior Court in Rancho Cucamonga, Calif. on May 1 to show support for Public Lands for the People, which is leading the legal battle to end the statewide ban on small-scale suction dredge mining. After saying in open court that he would make a ruling in two weeks, Judge Gilbert Ochoa instead reserved judgement in a closed-door session with all parties, instead calling for a Mandatory Settlement Conf...

5 Replies and 6222 Views no more fees  6222  5 Started by  walter@equalaccesstojustice.com I was notified of this from Walt Wegner from PLP. This may seem that it does not effect mining claims but think about this. How is free camping around claims authorized (dispersed camping) this would include mining claims as the multiple use act comes into play. The more control to charge the less freedom we have as they become more responsible for the persons on public lands so they can protect the agency by controlling access. When you charge a fee or someone pays you for something you are ass...

Whether you agree with the basis of the Supreme Court case or not this does show a change in the tenor of the courts towards Constitutional adherence by the courts. This as a whole is a good sign for individual rights both land and otherwise. One other recent one is the Riley v. California where the 4th amendment was affirmed to include cell phones in regards to even part of a search incident to arrest. Thi...
