			<description>Is Upper Lafayette referring to the thief, Dr. Chris Williams.  Yes, he will show them how to fight.  By his high crimes and misdemeanors the thief, Chris Williams, will fight his way into federal prison.  This is truly a comedy of errors of epic proportions.  You have the Three Stooges: Dennis, Freeman, and Simmons along with the Cavalcade of Clowns: Williams, Evans, Guillory, and Carmouche.  Upper Lafayette lets us know that racism is not dead nor doth it sleep for Upper Lafayette awake it will keep. - The Watcher</description>

			<description>Why is LAf NATIVE permitted to spew the same nonsense over and over again when others who are not nearly as redundant are not?  LAF NATIVE has said, over and over, what he needed to say.  Why is his drivel again and again put forth by The Ind and you do not permit others to repeat?  Enough is enough!  It's not getting old, it's ancient. - Who?</description>

			<description>This is where the rubber meets the road. Here we have this great distraction from the economic peril that district 44 finds itself.

There is a lot of irony in that Judge Rubin is born and raised in the Truman Subdivision, the same subdivision in which Mr. Hardy resides and represents.

Mr. Hardy appears to be thriving in a district where he reaps the reward of this distraction.  Mr. Hardy needs to focus on bringing jobs and industry to 44. - LAFAYETTE NATIVE RESIDING IN CA</description>

			<description>Joe Dennis,John Freeman and Rev Simmons. Should you lose your case in the 15JDC don't stop their. Appeal to the third circuit court of appeal an then to the La. Supreme Court if you'll are not successful their.  Should you all don't get reinstated appeal to U.S. State Supreme Court. What ever you all do don't do like the three white boards members when the NAACP requested them to be removed. Fight and save your name your reputation is on the line. You all should ask for damages their is some irreparable harm that was cause to your family and your charter. Joe,John and Leon we need to start up a legal defense fund in order to take on city hall. Enough is Enough. Get you a good Jews attorney. Judge Rubin is an Uncle Tom who said he want to see Mr. Durel in court and to explain why he should not be held in contempt. Judge Rubin was talking bad like he was upset and today he was cool than a cube of ice the white man ice him. KNOW THE QUESTION? DID MR DUREL ACT IN GOOD FAITH WHEN HE REMOVE THE THREE BOARD MEMBERS? REVIEWING THE TAPES IS AFTER THE FACT. That is the question the judge must ask? DR WILLIAMS THANK FOR YOUR SEEN IN COURT TODAY WAS WONDERFUL. SHOW THE THREE BOARDS MEMBERS HOW TO FIGHT. - Upper Lafayette </description>

			<description>Stagg is a liberal office holder wannabe who needs a haircut.  The arrogant, pseudo intellectual facade he attempts to project, along with his bad haircut, speak volumes about why he'll not get elected to anything in public office.  At least not in Louisiana.

			<description>MWStagg, we reported on what Rubin did yesterday, signing an order that Durel and the council members did not have to appear in court today for a contempt hearing. It was a new development in the case that was not reported by the Daily and Advocate this morning, so we thought readers should know why Durel and most council members would not be appearing in court. We have yet to report that TODAY (after Rubin pulled back on the order) Ottinger agreed Durel would not swear in new board members until the court decides the matter.  - Leslie Turk</description>

			<description>There is more to the story than TheInd is letting on. After a pre-trial conference in Judge Rubin's chambers, LCG Pat Ottinger said that the new members City/Parish President Durel appointed to the LHA board last week will not be sworn in until  this case is resolved. So, the basis for the contempt citation no longer existed. Durel is the one who backed down here.

As to how this moves forward, Judge Rubin said he would act in his capacity as an appellate court and focus on the existing record and the law. That means the letters from Durel to the board members he wants fired, their appeal letters, and the various records (audio, video and notes) from the special LCG meeting of September 21, as well as the law governing such dismissals.

Judge Rubin said it would take him a couple of days to review the material and rule on the matter. - MWStagg</description>

			<description>This is just a bunch of games.

Claire Taylor reported this weekend that before a special meeting called by Walter Guillory this summer to appoint a new independent auditor, board Chairman Buddy Webb asked to see the 09 audit. Guillory said it had not been sent, when in Webb in fact knew it had been sent, and that it was also posted on the Legislative Auditor's web site. When Webb told the board this during the meeting, according to the minutes, they chose to go into executive session at Guillory's request.

Then, like you reported, they had another meeting on Aug. 6 when they fired the case workers - apparently without looking at the 09 audit. Point is they had opportunities in recent meetings to review the audit, but simply didn't.

Also, they had numerous meetings to look at the previous years audits. Maybe they did look at the audits and did nothing. Maybe they didn't, but should have. They had to know LHA is a public body that gets audited.

Someone should figure out what these games are costing taxpayers in terms of paying Mr. Ottinger to file responses to court petitions from these 3 men, not to mention the costs of investigations.

Time and money are being wasted. It's time to move on with the business of the new board. - Cajunhiker</description>

			<description>Judge Ed Rubin is intimidated by King Durel. It's time for this dog and pony show to end, this whole city is corrupt from city hall to the courthouse to the LHA. Politics is the underlying theme in this whole ordeal. I can't believe Durel is allowing his crony Don Fuselier to remain on the LHA board. And,where is that idiot Rickey Hardy? His days in office are numbered. - beheard</description>
