UPDATE: Nick Brown Admitted to Court to Serve as Counsel to Mumia

April 13, 2001: On April 6, Judge William H. Yohn signed an order that conditionally granted Mumia's request to change legal counsel. Contrary to the report in the Philadelphia Inquirer, Judge Yohn gave Mumia 30 days, not 60 days, to obtain new legal representation. It also appears from the wording that Yohn has denied Mumia's request to serve as his own lawyer (pro se) while looking for new legal counsel. From: .C. Clark Kissinger.

10Apr 2001: A federal judge yesterday approved a request by Mumia Abu-Jamal to fire his longtime legal team. In a brief opinion, U.S. District Judge William H. Yohn Jr. wrote that, because Abu-Jamal had hired his own lawyers, "he may change counsel at any time for any reason subject to court approval. "Thus, Yohn added, he had no need to hold a hearing or comment on Abu-Jamal's stated reason for firing his lawyers: that his lawyer had purportedly violated the lawyer-client relationship by writing an insider's account of the celebrated case. Yohn postponed for 60 days any further action in Abu-Jamal's federal appeal of his death sentence in the 1981 murder of Philadelphia Police Officer Daniel Faulkner to give him time to hire new lawyers.

10-6-99: Mumia’s Legal Situation Following the Recent Action by the U.S. Supreme Court

10/5/99: As many have heard, the U.S. Supreme Court has upheld the racist rulings of the Pennsylvania state courts by turning down Mumia’s writ of certiorari which was filed this past April 22. Mumia’s lawyers were expecting this to happen. We have learned that Governor Ridge is expected to sign a new death warrant in 30 days. When this happens, Mumia will be put on a death watch and have all "privileges" taken away. All activists should be on an emergency alert just in case this does happen. Please stay in touch with the IAC for further updates and emails on the next actions planned.
