Liberty Dollar Update

Back in November of 2007 the F.B.I. raided four locations belonging to the Liberty Dollar around the country and seized thousands of pounds of copper, thousands of ounces of silver, and many ounces of gold, plus a quarter million dollars in cash. The ‘feds’ then began a civil forfeiture action in 2008 and a criminal action in 2009. They proceeded to ‘bury’ the criminal defendants with 1.5 million documents to force the defense to waive the speedy trial rule and take many months to sift through the paperwork in order to create a defense.

On April 15, 2010 I sent into the federal court in North Carolina a motion to quash the four warrants that were issued against the Liberty Dollar back in November of 2007. The court unsealed the case and gave the United States ten (10) days to respond to my motion. Last Monday the attorney for the U.S. sent over his response requesting the court deny my motion. Thursday morning (4-28-10) the Court received my reply to the U.S.’s response and we are now waiting for the ruling. As soon as I hear, I will let everyone know.
