Aaron Walker has retained the services of attorney Reginald Bours who has filed an emergency motion asking for a partial stay or a modification of convicted Speedway Bomber, Brett Kimberlin's peace order, that would lift the peace order until the Appeals Court hears the case on July 5th.

The motion Bours refers to is an emergency motion he has filed for a partial stay or a modification of Kimberlin's peace order that would in effect lift the peace order until the Appeals Court hears the case on July 5th.

The motion is worth reading for the case it lays out against Kimberlin's so-called evidence. What's most revealing is that Judge Vaughey not only ignored the Brandenburg standard for speech, he also appears to have ignored Maryland law.

On page 2 of the motion, Bours notes that the Maryland statute on peace orders states that it 'does not apply to peaceable activity intended to express a political view or provide information to others.' It also notes that 'in Galloway v. State, the Court of Appeals specifically stated that Maryland's harassment statute ‘...expressly eliminate constitutionally protected speech from its ambit.''

Kudos to Walker for fighting back on behalf of everyone's right of Free Speech.
