US Supreme Court Sued

As a rule, I generally don't post too many news items or much serious stuff at all, but this article caught my eye:

U.S. Supreme Court targeted by litigant in Texas Supreme Court

From the Texas Supreme Court Blog:

Well, you don’t see this caption every day: Brumbaugh v. Justice John Roberts, et al., No. 10-0314. The “et alia” includes eight other Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court. (Justice Sotomayor is off the hook; this plaintiff’s suit still names Justice Souter.)

The court of appeals affirmed the trial court’s dismissal of the case, and Brumbaugh has just filed his petition for review with the Texas Supreme Court. (There doesn’t appear to be any online version of the petition; self-represented litigants are not required to file electronic courtesy copies.)

Brumbaugh requested that the trial court declare certain Supreme Court rulings unconstitutional and restore civil liberties, stop or fix the drug war, outlaw all mind control technology, declare martial law unlawful, and collect $10,000 from each justice for dereliction of duty and fraud.

Sounds like a good deal to me, except for the "mind control technology". Everyone knows all you have to do is wear a tin foil hat....
