[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Apparently Blake’s lawyer, Esra Hudson, is on the board of the advocacy group that filed one of the amicus briefs. It’s never simple, folks.[/quote] Here's what 10 minutes of poking around on the websites of these organizations, you absolute mouthpiece for Bryan Freedman: One of the two amicus briefs filed last week was filed on behalf of three different organizations: The California Women's Law Center (CWLC), Equal Rights Advocates (ERA), and the California Employment Lawyer's Association (CELA). ERA and CELA have boards of directors composed of at least 18 members each, none of which appear to have members who have any clear connection to this case afaict. Both of these organizations were actually directly involved in either drafting or advocating to support California Assembly Bill 933 ("AB 933") at issue in this case and discussed in this amicus brief. ERA drafted and co-sponsored AB 933 and successfully advocated for its passage. CELA co-sponsored the bill and was key to its passage. Hudson isn't on the Board of either of these organizations. Esra Hudson does sit on the board of the California Women's Law Center, as do 21 other people, the majority of whom are also partners at big law firms. The CWLC advocated for adoption of AB 933, but didn't do the same major oar pulling that ERA and CELA did. I am sure that Hudson can't just impose her will on CWLC and force it (and the other two organizations which she has no special pull with) to submit an amicus brief in a cause they don't believe in. It makes absolutely no sense that Hudson might have been able to bully her way into getting these three women's organizations to write and submit an amicus brief on this issue. Two of these organizations were directly involved in drafting the bill and getting it passed -- you think Ezra Hudson is going to get them to make arguments here they don't stand behind? And there are 21 other board members on CWLC where Hudson does sit on the board -- you really think a single board member has that influence? Completely detatched from reality. But let us know which women's rights organizations Baldoni or Freedman have board memberships in, so we can keep our eyes peeled for their advocacy for male feminist/absolute hypocrite Justin Baldoni in this case, who is actually arguing Liman shouldn't even read the amicus briefs from these women's organizations and that they should effectively be silent here. A++ totally on brand male feminist. [/quote]
