If somebody is willing to be a test case and do an "audit" on camera, I bet the fudds and fredocons will whine about how the law abiding test case provoked the people who were just doing their job by violating the law.
You might want to reconsider the AG opinion on private non-profits using government property before you call for a test case.
Chas.
I never quite understood the entire gist, of that opinion Charles. He used the term "arms length" to describe the relationship. To me, and I have no serious legal training, that would mean, that other, than owning the property, the governing body, would provide, no other service, or role, in the day to day, business. But if they are using, LEO, as security, the governing body, is still paying insurance, and electric bill for example, doesn't that take them out of the "arms length" situation?
If I recall, the opinion, was in response, to a non-profit, renting/leasing a building, and took on all of the responsibilities, of maintenance, and upkeep, and the governing body, played no role, other than to collect rent.
And since there are still a lot of lessors, who rent government buildings, like convention centers, etc, who then post 30.06 signs, does that only extend to non-profits?
I would appreciate any clarification.
thanks,
