		<description><![CDATA[Rats, the mail doesn&#039;t work. Anyone know where else I could send this?

&lt;blockquote&gt;Dear mr. Kuik.

One of my associates had a curious story to tell me the other day. It 
was about someone who sued another for what he perceived to be a clear- 
cut matter of the accused causing damages for him. Well, to be accurate, 
the details of the story suggested the first person had sued the other 
after being instructed by a lobbying proxy to find a random target 
appropriate for a lawsuit - but let&#039;s not get sidetracked.

The case progresses, albeit slowly. And before the case comes to court, 
the property of the accused is taken as evidence. However, no proof of 
the crime the accused was sued for was found. No matter, of course - the 
damage is done, and the property belonging to the accused is gone for an 
indeterminable period of time, and so is the funds the accused would 
have available, due to the nature of the charges brought against him.

Time passes, and the accused eventually gets his property returned. His 
money too, is freed, and he can at least get on with his life for the 
time being. But did the lack of proof for the crimes he was accused of 
result in a dismissal of the case? Now, here is where the story truly 
starts to become incredible.

What happens is in allegedly that the accuser attempts to equate the 
initial accusation with another activity the accused was engaged in. 
Even though, as mentioned, no proof of the accused criminal activity was 
found. And so, the case enters the court- system, with slim to no hope 
for the accuser of ever achieving a victory - bar the possibility of 
overturning some centuries of legal practice in the western hemisphere.

And so the trial, two years after the initial raid on false pretenses - 
false, as evidently no evidence was available, and what was done to 
convince the authorities was an insistence on how one thing was equal to 
another, which the trial would soon determine whether was true - the 
trial would begin. And so the accuser lost the case - the initial 
justification for the raid was false, and no legal argument would be 
deemed appropriate to describe how the accused was actually a criminal, 
as alleged.

Now, you might think this story is unbelievable at this point, but it is 
not yet finished.

In the aftermath of the trial, after the accuser was soundly defeated on 
all points, you might wonder what would happen to the accused. Would he 
pursue a claim of reparations against the accuser, or indeed against the 
police, for causing him serious problems for the only reason of 
satisfying the accuser&#039;s wish to try a semantic argument in court?

No, as we draw towards the conclusion of the story, we learn that 
instead, the accuser returns to the accused, who has just been 
vindicated by a court, to threaten him in person - for the same crime 
once more. The same crime which the accused was just excused. One can 
only imagine that the reason for this curious behavior was that the 
police had the sense to follow the law, and could as such not justify 
going in their stead, as previously was the case.

But that leaves us with several questions - what restraints, if any, do 
you consider it is legally necessary to abide by when acting on  behalf 
of your organization? What restraints do you consider applies to your 
organization in general? Do you consider yourself and your associates to 
be above the law? Or do you believe there is a sound legal basis for 
harassing people in their homes, even when there can be no ambiguity 
about whether your organization&#039;s &quot;creative&quot; accusations can, or will, 
have any traction in court? And if so, what does that legal argument 
rest on? And in what way do you consider this argument to still be 
undecided in an appropriate court?

I hope you can get back to me, as I&#039;m doing some preliminary 
investigation for a newsitem for my university paper, and any help in 
this regard would be welcome - even though I must admit I have my 
reservations about believing this story, as it sounds rather fanciful 
that anyone retaining nominal control over their senses would pay 
someone for the services you are alleged to have offered.


Sincerely yours,&lt;/blockquote&gt;]]></description>
