The Constitutional Court says investigations by the suspended Public Protector, Advocate Busisiwe Mkhwebane into President Cyril Ramaphosa could not expose the president to a conflict of interest in her suspension. This is according to Deputy Chief Justice Mandisa Maya who over-turned the decision of the Western Cape High Court which had declared Mkhwebane's suspension as invalid. Ramaphosa had suspended Mkhwebane in June last year following her decision to initiate an investigation into the theft of the president's Phala Phala Game Farm. Delivering the judgement, Deputy Chief Justice says Mkhwebane's suspension did nothing for the benefit of the president.

To further discuss this Elvis Presslin spoke to Senior Legal Analyst and Member of the South African Bar Association, Advocate Romeo Nthambeleni

 Parliament's Section 194 committee will now no longer insist on hearing oral evidence from suspended Public Protector, Advocate Busisiwe Mkhwebane.

She will then have the opportunity to also answer in writing or, if she wishes to answer orally, she will be allowed to do so. For more on this we spoke to  Advocate Romeo Nthambeleni, Senior Legal Analyst member of the Legal Practice Council of South Africa...  

This week, Jen's guest is her good friend Elie Honig. Elie is a former prosecutor and currently a Senior Legal Analyst at CNN.

He is the author of the national bestseller Hatchet Man  about former Attorney General Bill Barr, and has a new must-read page-turner out now called Untouchable: How Powerful People Get Away With It.

But, there are some differences and Elie and Jen get into all of that.  Plus he pulls no punches when it comes to critiquing Attorney General Merrick Garland.  Okay. Let's dive in.

Recent polling by Data for Progress for the Appeal taken between March 5 and March 7 found public opinion since the murder of George Floyd has shifted to support for alternatives to policing and the ways in which communities can reimagine safety outside of armed officers. They found, “As many as half of the individuals killed by law enforcement have a disability; and people with an untreated mental illness are 16 times more likely to be killed during a police encounter. Emergency First Responder (EFR) programs differ from place to place, but the purpose is the same: armed law enforcement is often not the best tool for responding to a range of requests for emergency assistance.” A new national poll from Data for Progress and The Lab, a policy vertical of The Appeal, “shows overwhelming support among likely voters for creating non-police emergency first responders to handle emergency calls that involve mental health issues, substance use disorders, health and safety check-ins, and people experiencing homelessness—and to reallocate law enforcement funding in order to do so.” To discuss these polling results, Everyday Injustice spoke with Alana Sivin and Emily Galvin-Almanza of the Appeal. Alana Sivin is a Senior Legal Analyst and Co-Host of Appeal Live. She previously served as Senior Legislative Counsel to the Criminal Justice Committee at the New York City Council, where she focused primarily on drafting legislation intended to reduce incarceration and improve jail conditions. Prior to that experience, she worked as public defender at New York County Defender Services in Manhattan, where she represented indigent New Yorkers charged with crimes. Emily Galvin-Almanza is a Senior Legal Analyst and Co-Host of Appeal Live. She worked as a public defender for most of a decade, first in California and then in New York. Emily is also the co-founder and executive director of Partners For Justice, a nonprofit that trains and places college graduates in public defenders’ offices to fight the enmeshed penalties of legal-system involvement, obtain access to vital services, and make low-income community members’ voices heard. *The interview was conducted after the death of Daunte Wright but before the verdict in the Derek Chauvin case.

Just as America begins to reopen from the Coronavirus lockdowns, protests break out across the country over the killing of George Floyd by police in Minneapolis. Governors deploy riot police into the streets to deal with looting, Trump threatens to invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807, and millions of Americans wonder if they still have a job. Racial tensions grow, while groups like Antifa violently agitate for the abolition of property and capitalism. With curfews and business closures in effect, what does the rule of law even mean? How does government at any level maintain legitimacy when it cannot provide basic order? Judge Andrew P. Napolitano, the Senior Legal Analyst for Fox News and a board member of the Mises Institute, joins Jeff Deist for an in-depth look at the legal crisis facing America in the wake of COVID-19 and ongoing civil unrest. Among the topics: What powers do Trump and governors have to quell protests or prevent the spread of disease? Are orders not authorized by legislatures flatly illegal? Do they carry the force of law?Can Trump call out National Guard or federal military forces without congressional approval or consent of governors?What does due process mean during a crisis? Do constitutional protections disappear when public health is at stake or mass protests overtake the streets?What level of constitutional scrutiny should apply to measures taken by governors and mayors—quarantines, business closures, curfews, police mobilizations?Are qualified immunity protections keeping dangerous cops and politicians from accountability? Will business owners be able to sue state or local governments for violating their rights?Is "property vs. lives" a false choice from a legal perspective? Do police have any affirmative duty to safeguard either?What roles do the Ninth and Tenth Amendments play—or should they play—in how various states deal with these crises? Is federalism poised for a resurgence? This online seminar is a hard-hitting and uncompromising discussion of government malfeasance and lawlessness.

Recently, I sat down with Imani Gandy, Senior Legal Analyst with Rewire. In the course of our conversation, there are several interesting points raised including why are we as progressives willing to excuse some people while holding others to the fire. This conversation is probably one of my favorites since starting the show because I was able to talk with a Black woman like myself who has gone from being an unhappy lawyer to honing their craft as an advocacy journalist. There are so few of us in these independent media spaces so it was interesting to get more insight into her path and perspectives. We do not have to all agree, but we can certainly learn a lot from good conversations with good people doing good work. Check out the Boom! Lawyered Podcast hosted by Imani and Jessica Mason Pieklo.
