On this episode, we have one question from the free world and one from the inside. We have two letters. One was filled with “you people”‘s. It’s just for entertainment and doesn’t really have anything to do with our issue. We have we’re going to talk about a case out of the Wyoming Supreme Court that deals with PFRs. And we’re going to talk about Governor Cuomo. We’re going to talk about the fabulous work that that NARSOL just did with the filing of an amicus brief in the Supreme Court.

RM167: Hijacking A Bill With Floor Amendments

Welcome to episode 167 of Registry Matters. This episode discusses an interesting concept of a “Floor Amendment”. It was used when the bill passed from one chamber to the next, an amendment was added to it. Instead of the chamber simply passing it with no alterations, a vote was required. And then, since the bills don’t match, it has to go back to the chamber it started on. It’s a bit like legislative ping pong.

RM166: GA Legislature Debating Extending Registration Explained

This weeks episode of Registry Matters has us discussing in detail legislation from Georgia that has some very interesting language. This bill will allow some of those individuals on the registry to stay on for longer. This is amazing! Because that’s exactly what someone would want to do, which is stay on for longer. Even though there is no evidence that this would reduce the risk to the public. “Furthermore, there is also language that says Level II and III offenders are mostly all repeat offenders and they stay on the registry longer, anyway.”, District 14 State Rep. Mitchell Scoggins (R, Cartersville) said. This is laughably false.

We had a multitude of questions as well. All in all, it was a really great episode!

RM165: Huge Win In Tennessee Explained

In this weeks episode, we explained the recent decision in United States District Court of the Middle District of Tennessee. The governor of Tennessee was William Haslam. He was the defendant along with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation director. It was two separate but identical complaints filed by the same attorney. The two cases were consolidated for the purposes of case management discovery and pre-trial motions. This is a four four plus year old case. The state did what states do: they filed every motion they could think of, and they tried like hell to get out of this, but they didn’t get out of it. They failed because the landscape has changed a lot due to the ruling from the Sixth Circuit. Does versus Snyder, and Tennessee is in the Sixth Circuit which makes doe versus Snyder controlling case law.

We also went over some questions from listeners and readers. It was an excellent show that you don’t want to miss!

RM164: Interstate Compact Revocation Hearings Explained

Today’s episode, we have more content that we can jam into an hour. We have three questions from behind the walls of prison. We have a couple questions from outside the walls of prison. And then we’re going to dig into interstate compact, probable cause hearings. And we’re gonna talk about the late Justice Scalia and his his philosophy about evolving about the evolution of the Constitution and why it does not evolve.

When transferring to another state, there are so many complicated rules and who has control of whom, it’s just crazy. it’s very difficult for a person forced to register. Once you go through all those hurdles, it’s really bad to get set back on some whimsical thing. There’s a special rule for for people who like to take notes, the interstate compact household bench book, and there’s rules rule 3.103-3 makes it difficult because the person is not allowed to go to the to the state, the receiving state, they’re not allowed to leave the sending state until the residence has been approved.

RM162: Discussion on Challenging Legislation

Hello! And welcome to episode 162 of Registry Matters. We have several questions. And hopefully we can get to them all. We’re going to talk about a particular piece of legislation in the New Mexico State House Bill 56. And we’ve got some articles. One of our main focuses at Registry Matters is helping people become more informed about how to be effective advocates, and how this maze of rules and regulations impact them. So these questions are going to take priority and the legislative stuff that we’re going to talk.
