APPEAL HEARING TO ADDRESS THE LAKOTA NATION S0VEREIGNTY
A Hearing has been scheduled for February 13, 2006 to correct the illegal sentencing that occurred in Leonard Peltier's case. The basis for this motion is that the United States District Court lacked subject matter jurisdiction under the statutes upon which Mr. Peltier was convicted and sentenced . While the attorneys are inside the court we will be gathered at the Courthouse Plaza holding a prayer vigil. Join in prayers with traditional Drum and we pray and show our support for Mr. Peltier.
Directions-
From the West - Take Hwy 40 (64) in to St. Louis to the Market Street exit, follow Market Street to turn right on 10th St. (KSDK-TV at the corner) go down one block and the Court House is a large building on your right with a domed roof, the Court House Plaza is directly across the street. We will be directly in front of the enterence across the street.
From the East – Cross the Poplar Street Bridge ( all highways join together to cross the bridge at the Missouri / Illinois border) Take Hwy 40 west to Market St/ 21st Street exit # 39A.

No parking allowed around the courthouse streets, for security purposes. There is a parking garage at 9th St and Walnut – West Stadium Parking Garage for $5 a day. There is also a parking lot straight down 10th St, don't know the cost, but the area didn't look real safe to me.
