Dear Mr. Farmer, Mr. Guttman, Ms. Muranaka & All Concerned:

Due to the discovery of NEW FACTS, I am updating the subject Exhibit and the witness information for U.S. Attorneys General Michael Mukasey and Alberto Gonzales, which you will find attached and on-line at:

http://www.kycbs.net/Freedom-To-Sing.htm

http://www.kycbs.net/CV05-00030-Witness-Mukasey-Michael.htm

http://www.kycbs.net/CV05-00030-Witness-Gonzales-Alberto.htm

As Judge David Ezra's Order constitutes a PRIOR RESTRAINT of my freedom of speech -- and that of all others who published their opinions in The Catbird Seat website, I regret that I must continue to submit each of these new and updated exhibits and witness descriptions for your review and approval in the event they may contain any prohibited "Protected Subject Matter". If you would like to avoid this approval process, then I would again suggest that we attempt a good-faith settlement of this case through confidential negotiation or mediation.

Your prompt reply will be appreciated.

Very truly yours,

Bobby N. Harmon, CPCU, ARM

The First Amendment Handbook

Prior Restraints

A prior restraint is an official restriction of speech prior to publication. Prior restraints are viewed by the U.S. Supreme Court as "the most serious and the least tolerable infringement on First Amendment rights." Since 1931, the Court repeatedly has found that such attempts to censor the media are presumed unconstitutional.

In the 1976 landmark case Nebraska Press Association v. Stuart, the Court addressed the constitutionality of an order prohibiting the media from publishing or broadcasting certain information about Erwin Charles Simants, who was accused of murdering the Henry Kellie family in a small town in Nebraska. This case pitted the First Amendment rights of a free press against the defendant's Sixth Amendment right to a fair trial.

To ensure that Simants received a fair trial, the Nebraska Supreme Court modified the district court's order to prohibit reporting of confessions or admissions made by Simants or facts "strongly implicative" of Simants.

On appeal, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the prior restraint order. The Court emphasized that the use of prior restraint is an "immediate and irreversible sanction" that greatly restricts the First Amendment rights of the press. "If it can be said that a threat of criminal or civil sanctions after publication `chills' speech, prior restraint `freezes' it at least for the time," Chief Justice Warren Burger wrote for the Court.

To determine whether the prior restraint order was justified, the Court applied a form of the "clear and present danger" test, examining whether "the gravity of the `evil,' discounted by its improbability, justifies such invasion of free speech as is necessary to avoid the danger."

In applying this test, the Court articulated a three-part analytical framework, which imposed a heavy burden on the party seeking to restrain the press. First, the Court examined "the nature and extent of the pretrial news coverage." Second, the Court considered whether other less restrictive measures would have alleviated the effects of pretrial publicity. Finally, the Court considered the effectiveness of a restraining order in preventing the threatened danger.

The Court found that the trial judge reasonably concluded that the "intense and pervasive pretrial publicity" in the Simants case "might reasonably impair the defendant's right to a fair trial." However, the trial judge did not consider whether other measures short of a prior restraint order would protect the defendant's rights. The trial judge should have considered changing the location of the trial, postponing the trial, intensifying screening of prospective jurors, providing emphatic and clear instructions to jurors about judging the case only on the evidence presented in the courtroom or sequestering the jury.

The Court also found that the effectiveness of the trial judge's prior restraint order to protect Simants' right to a fair trial was questionable. Because the prior restraint order is limited to the court's territorial jurisdiction, it could not effectively restrain national publications as opposed to publications within the court's jurisdiction.

Moreover, it is difficult for trial judges to draft effective prior restraint orders when it is hard "to predict what information will in fact undermine the impartiality of jurors." Finally, because this trial took place in a town of 850 people, rumors traveling by word of mouth may be more damaging to the defendant's fair-trial rights than printed or broadcasted news accounts. In short, the probability that the defendant's fair-trial rights would be impaired by pretrial publicity was not shown with "the degree of certainty" needed to justify a prior restraint order.

Because the "barriers to prior restraint remain high and the presumption against its use continues intact," prior restraint orders are rarely upheld. As a result, editorial decisions about publication of information the government deems sensitive are generally left solely to the discretion of news organizations. Nevertheless, government officials and private individuals occasionally attempt to stop publication....

Exhibit: “Marsh & McLennan: The Marsh Birds”

Witnesses: Mark Bennett; Lawrence Reifurth; J.P. Schmidt; Rocco Sansone, etc.

Dear Mr. Farmer & Mr. Guttman:

Due to the new discovery of important FACTS related to this case, I am updating the information for the subject Exhibit and witnesses, which you will find on-line at:

http://www.kycbs.net/MarshBirds.htm

http://www.kycbs.net/CV05-00030-Witness-Bennett-Mark.htm

http://www.kycbs.net/CV05-00030-Witness-Schmidt-JP.htm

http://www.kycbs.net/CV05-00030-Witness-Sansone-Rocco.htm

These facts clearly show that there are numerous conflicting professional, financial and political relationships between entities involved in this case which cannot be dismissed as being merely “phantom dots”, “conspiracy theories”, “political opinions”, or “protected subject matter”.

As I have previously advised, I intend to file a MOTION TO REOPEN this case unless you are willing to try to resolve this matter NOW through voluntary NEGOTIATION or, as an alternative, through non-binding MEDIATION.

If you are not open to either of these alternatives, then please let me know immediately if you intend to file any Objections to my reopening this case.

Very truly yours,

Request for Enforcement of Hawaii Revised Statutes Vol. 13, Chap. 634F

Dear Attorney General Bennett:

This is to inform you that I have not received an acknowledgment of, or response to, my letter you dated August 1, 2007, regarding the referenced matter. A copy of this letter, and related information, can be found on the Internet at:

http://www.kycbs.net/CV05-00030-Hawaii-AG-8-1-7.htm

http://www.voy.com/129276/

Since this information is necessary in order for the subject case to be finally closed, I ask that you provide to me, as soon as possible, an accounting of the settlement recovered for Kamehameha Schools and P&C Insurance Co., Inc. for the fraudulent overcharges which I reported beginning in November, 1996, and which may be continuing to this date.

Also, as a tax-payer, I ask that you provide to me. and to the general public, complete details– including reimbursement of premiums, damages for wrongfully denied claims, penalties, etc.– regarding the settlement negotiations and monies received which involved any and all claims made by the State of Hawaii against the insurance agents, brokers and carriers involved in your investigations and settlement negotiations.

Your immediate response is respectfully requested.

Very truly yours,

Bobby N. Harmon, CPCU, ARM
