I'm not a lawyer, do forgive if the technical terms are not correct, but a plea bargain was made on 8\/22 at 5 pm that covers the arrestees in the U'wa civil disobedience, the Ramparts CD and the Critical Mass bikers. This isn't everybody, but it's a good chunk of the total. The remaining prisoners should be released within 24 hours, if they have not yet been. The plea is to a 415 misdemeanor \"disturbing the peace\" at the infraction level and the punishment will be time served. ANY arrestees already out that this applies to should go to www.midnightspecial@lawcollective.org<\/a> for details and for a form to arrange representation.<\/p>\n","contact":"","link":"","address":"","phone":"","parent_id":0,"mime_type":"text\/plain","summary":"The arrestees in the U'wa civil disbedience, Critical Mass and the Ramparts civil disobedience (which isn't everyone)\r\naccepted a plea to a 415 \"disturbing the peace\" for time served.","numcomment":1,"fileurl":"\/uploads\/","filesize":null,"article_url":"\/news\/2000\/08\/3290.php"},"attachments":[],"comments":[{"id":3396,"heading":"Plea Bargain","article":"Just a correction for the above -- the plea was to an infraction with fine suspended in lieu of time served, rather than to a misdemeanor.
