68. The Mississippi Burning Trial (United States Vs. Price Et Al.): A Trial Account Pointing at Price, Doar said that Price used the machinery of law, his office, mississippi Attorney general Michael Moore recently explained, http://www.law.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/price&bowers/Account.html

The M issis sippi Burn ing T rial (U. S. vs. Price et al.) by Douglas O. Linder It was an old-fashioned lynching, carried out with the help of county officials, that came to symbolize hardcore resistance to integration. Dead were three civil rights workers, Michael Schwerner, Andrew Goodman, and James Chaney. All three shot in the dark of night on a lonely road in Neshoba County, Mississippi. Many people predicted such a tragedy when the Mississippi Summer Project, an effort that would bring hundreds of college-age volunteers to "the most totalitarian state in the country" was announced in April, 1964. The FBI's all-out search for the conspirators who killed the three young men, depicted in the movie " Mississippi Burning ," was successful, leading three years later to a trial in the courtroom of one of America's most determined segregationist judges. Sam Bowers , the Imperial Wizard of the White Knights of the Klu Klux Klan of Mississippi, sent word in May, 1964 to the Klansmen of Lauderdale and Neshoba counties that it was time to "activate Plan 4." Plan 4 provided for "the elimination" of the despised civil rights activist Michael Schwerner , who the Klan called "Goatee" or "Jew-Boy." Schwerner, the first white civil rights worker based outside of the capitol of Jackson, had earned the enmity of the Klan by organizing a black boycott of a white-owned business and aggressively trying to register blacks in and around Meridian to vote.

Skip navigation U.S. News Hurricanes' Wrath The Changing Court ... Most Popular NBC NEWS MSNBC TV Today Show Nightly News Meet the Press ... U.S. News Judge axes Miss. law banning some abortions Early second-trimester procedures at clinics affected JACKSON, Miss. - A federal judge on Wednesday struck down a Mississippi law that barred early second-trimester abortions at clinics. The law would have required patients to go to hospitals or outpatient surgical facilities for abortions starting at 13 weeks' gestation. Previously, abortions were allowed at clinics up to 16 weeks' gestation. The state said the 2004 law was aimed at improving patient safety, but opponents said it was an attempt to limit abortion in a state that has only one abortion clinic. U.S. District Judge Tom S. Lee sided with the Jackson Women's Health Organization - Mississippi's one abortion clinic - and the Center for Reproductive Rights in New York in declaring the law unconstitutional. The judge ruled the law was enacted "for reasons wholly unrelated to any actual safety or health concerns." The state's action made abortions "effectively unavailable in the state of Mississippi beyond the first trimester," the judge said. He said the state knew no abortion clinic was licensed as a hospital or ambulatory surgery facility. He also noted that public hospitals could perform abortions only in extremely limited circumstances.

Attorney General, Mississippi, Lead Negociator for the Attorney s General in the Tobacco Settlement. Interview Excerpt Dick Scruggs The Deal "I believe they [the tobacco industry] are the most corrupt and evil corporate animal that has ever been created in this country's history. They sell a drug, they make a drug, and they sell it knowing that it's addictive. They market it to our children, who they know will become addicts and they know that they will die from causes attributable to tobacco related disease." Who? Michael Moore took the idea given to him by Mississippi attorney Mike Lewis and turned it into a national campaign. He filed the first state Medicaid law suit against the tobacco industry and flew around the country convincing other state attorneys general to file. He was the primary negotiator in the deal and is the leader of the push for a national tobacco settlement. Contribution to the Deal Michael Moore is the Attorney General of the state of Mississippi. After a suggestion from Mississippi attorney Mike Lewis, Moore developed the idea of suing the tobacco industry to recover Medicaid costs paid by the state in treating sick smokers. He hired Dick Scruggs, a friend from Ole Miss law school, to research and develop the case. Scruggs and Moore have been credited with bringing the tobacco industry to the table. The two of them, nicknamed Scro and Mo, then took their idea on the road and convinced other attorneys general around the country to sue the tobacco industry. Their efforts ultimately led to the tobacco industry coming to the bargaining table and negotiating the June 20, 1997 national settlement agreement. This agreement provided the basis for the current debate in Congress over national tobacco legislation.

SSR 84-18: SECTION 216(h)(1)(A) (42 U.S.C. 416(h)(1)(A)) RELATIONSHIP VALIDITY OF MARRIAGE ESTOPPEL OHIO 20 CFR 404.345 SSR 84-18 Held , Ohio applies the law of Mississippi in determining that the claimant and worker entered into a valid marriage. In determining whether the marriage terminated, however, Ohio follows its own rules because it is the State with paramount interest in the parties and issue. Since the marriage was never terminated, the claimant in the worker's wife under Ohio law and, therefore qualifies as his wife for purposes of entitlement under the Act. A question has been raised as to whether the claimant is the worker's wife under the Act. At issue is whether Ohio, the worker's present domicile, would look to Mississippi law to determine if the marriage that took place in Mississippi between the worker and the claimant was valid and, further, whether Ohio would apply the Mississippi principle of estoppel, which would preclude the claimant, based on her subsequent marriage, from denying the termination f her marriage to the worker and from asserting the validity of that marriage. The worker and the claimant were ceremonially married in Mississippi on August 27, 1923. They lived together in Mississippi as husband and wife until some time in the 1930's when they separated. It appears that they have had no contact with each other since that time. Neither the claimant nor the worker has filed for or obtained a divorce and, although the worker has on occasion stated that his marriage to the claimant was ended by divorce, he has also provided information to the contrary. Furthermore, a search of pertinent records has revealed no evidence of a divorce.
