Mercer Fraser gets a lesson from Allison Jackson about First Amendment, prior restraint, contempt in latest filing

 




This afternoon 7/22/26, I was surprised to see an ex-parte hearing scheduled in Goat Rock Ranch vs Chalk Mountain Ranch.

I have been covering this lawsuit and the related lawsuit filed by California Department of Forestry.

Attorneys for Goat Rock Ranch and Mercer Fraser filed a request for the ex parte hearing.

I will let you read the declaration and opposition filed Ms. Allison Jackson, attorney for Chalk Mountain and Brandon Barnwell.

Humboldt Superior Court Assistant Presiding Judge Timothy Canning rejected Mercer Fraser's attempt. Said speech is constitutionally protected and the right to discuss and petition to agencies is absolutely protected.









8/17/26/26: Ex parte hearing for continuance to request Mercer Fraser demurrer to second amended complaint filed by Chalk Mountain & Brandon Barnwell be scheduled for 9/11 to be heard with CalFire demurrer. The motion was granted by Judge Canning.
