October 20, 2023
The Washington State Court of Appeals, Division III, will hear oral arguments outside of its regular Spokane courtroom during a community visit to Wenatchee High School on Tuesday, October 24, 2023. The hearings will begin at 9 a.m. in the school auditorium located at 1101 Millerdale Ave. The public is welcome to attend the oral arguments and ask questions about the role and operations of the Court of Appeals during the Q&A break and at the end of the session.
"We're happy to have returned to occasional community based oral argument hearings after suspending them in April 2020," Division III Chief Judge George Fearing commented. "It is a great way for students to learn more about their state courts and to witness the lawyers' advocacy. The Wenatchee High School staff has been very welcoming and we look forward to interacting with their students."
The Court of Appeals, Division III is headquartered in Spokane, WA and hears appeals of case outcomes from trial courts throughout the Eastern Washington counties of Adams, Asotin, Benton, Chelan, Columbia, Douglas, Ferry, Franklin, Garfield, Grant, Kittitas, Klickitat, Lincoln, Okanogan, Pend Oreille, Spokane, Stevens, Walla Walla, Whitman, and Yakima.
Chief Judge George Fearing, Acting Chief Judge Robert Lawrence-Berrey, and Judge Rebecca Pennell will hear arguments in the following case:
• 9 a.m.: Case #380840, In Re: Bethany Alhaidari and Ghassan Alhaidari - Issue Statement: Did the trial court err when it refused to enforce a Saudi Arabian child custody decree? - TVW Link: https://www.tvw.org/watch/?clientID=9375922947&eventID=2023101167
• 10:30 a.m.: Case #390195, State of Washington v. Jarod Roland Taylor – Issue Statement: Was the defendant unlawfully seized when found sleeping in a field by police? TVW Link: https://www.tvw.org/watch/?clientID=9375922947&eventID=2023101168
Each argument will last approximately 30 minutes. To allow for questions and answers, we will have a 30-minute break between the first and second case. Web access to public documents on the above cases can be found at Washington State Courts - Appellate and Trial Courts.
The Court of Appeals occasionally hears oral arguments in various eastern Washington cities outside of its Spokane Headquarters. The court resumed community-based oral arguments in October, 2022 and have heard arguments at Eisenhower High School, Yakima; North Central High School, Spokane, and Chiawana High School, Pasco.
In September, the court was the recipient of the Nevin Award for promoting community outreach and civic education based on outreach to area high schools. Further information regarding the Court, visit the Washington Courts website at Washington State Courts - Appellate and Trial Courts.

THIS WEEK'S VIDEOS
What NO ONE Is Telling You About Hamas and Israel
For the first time ever, "Glenn TV" is publishing video with captions in Hebrew. “I want the Israeli people and Jews all over the world who fear for their life to know they are not alone,” Glenn says. He also calls on his audience to share this episode with any friends or family who suddenly find themselves draped in a Palestinian flag marching down the street chanting, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!” Glenn is joined by historian Edwin Black, award-winning investigative author of “IBM and the Holocaust.” He says ignorant pro-Palestinian chants are really calls for genocide — “’From the river to the sea’ means they want 9 to 10 million Jews to drown in the Mediterranean” — and blasts American universities as “ground zero for genocide and hate.” A great war in the Middle East has never been closer, and willful ignorance about the history of the region and the text of the Hamas charter can no longer be tolerated. But Hamas is not acting alone. Iran holds its leash, and Iran is making its REAL intentions clearer every day. For them this is not a territorial dispute, but a religious war. Lives are depending on ALL OF US to be educated on the truth, as Israel could soon be defending itself on multiple fronts, with calls for the U.S. to be dragged into the conflict. “This is an existential threat to Israel and the West,” warns Edwin. “What we do next will be the defining moment or the declining moment for all civilization.”

NIGHT OWL COMICS PRESENTS: THE ANICENTS
POSESIDON the master of the Seas
Chapter: 9
Raid of the Cyclops.
Though Xor Zeus might have allied himself just one of the tribes of Cyclops of the western territories on the continent known as Mt. Olympus, the eastern tribes of the giant cyclops weren't so inclined in making alliances with the humans who they viewed as intruders on their lands.
