Collins Gets PRA Case Remanded

The WA ST Supreme Court “denied” Collins’ Petition for Review as it does for “unpublished opinions” and, entire motion calendars, Collins is not offended.

The Court of Appeals II must have read Collins’ Petition because it remanded, for “further proceedings,” The Collins PRA case, a case that fits all of the necessary elements to bring total victory and the removal of Prior Restraints on two private email accounts, Prior Restraints that, by definition of All Courts, is a per se violation but not in this case apparently.

WA ST Const Art 1 Sec (5 per se); Every person may freely speak, write and publish on all subjects, being responsible for the abuse of that right.

Voters Educ. Comm. v. Pub. Disclosure Comm’n, 161 Wn.2d 470, 493-94, 166 P.3d 1174 (2007)

“article 1, section 5 categorically rules out prior restraints on constitutionally protected speech under any circumstances." 

"a prior restraint is an administrative or judicial order forbidding communications prior to their occurrence.”

Apparently WA ST Courts are now not only filled with a merry band of liberal lunatics that have an allegiance to, and are, 'Pro Government' Actors whom hang with The Local Chamber of Commerce crowd but also have to rule in favor of Bar Association Members over a Pro Se Litigant.

The Seattle Times is winning it’s suits against their City Government however so it must be a stature thing, either King County has more educated Judges and or The Times has more money, and lawyers. The City of Seattle has settled several suits, suits filed due to their inept records clerks, with attitudes.

Seattle receives over 10,000 requests per year, 2023, yet Defendant Chief Brian Smith had complained about the number of requests his Dept receives. Smith, either as a subordinate or unilaterally, instructed his records Dept to restrict Collins’ access and to even appear at The Police Department’s help counter.

Again, keep in mind that Collins was never asked to leave City hall, given a trespass notice, or worse, had behavior proven in a court of law nor even charged or even contacted for even the possibility. 

Collins had started audio recording the violations after it became apparent City Hall employees were acting in an unlawful manner by issuing orders, demands, and allegations regarding restricting liberties and access to records. Recordings are from the relevant time in 2019, do not violate employee privacy or WA ST Statutes nor is there a court issued Gag Order thus can be downloaded.

There is no way The Petition, below, and the case, should have not been considered by the whole court, the five judge panel decides a Petition for Review. Their decision to not accept review for the alleged  violations of The Five Named Defendants and then by COA II, that allowed several WA ST Statutes to continue to be violated and by making up, out of whole cloth, that Statutory Language clearly grants an Agency, The City of /Port Angeles, authority to place, and keep, Electronic Restraints on a persistent requester's private email accounts that simply does not exist, but, however, the totally ignorant and perhaps willfully ignorant decisions that had contradicted all prior cases regarding The PRA and the violations of Art 1 Sec 5, Prior Restraints, will eventually be exposed in The Courts.

The Court of Appeals II knew it's ruling had no support thus “unpublished” meaning it is not precedent.

GR 14.1 (a), Unpublished opinions of the Court of Appeals have no precedential value and not binding on any court,” and repeating what is written at the conclusion of The Supeme Court Petition for Review, The anti American Courts, now filled with Pro Government Chinese Communists Party Gooks, will be home eating rice patties while Collins, whom outsmarted the entire system including a beloved member of their Bar Association, will make Collins a Martyr.
