A magistrate is an officer of the state; in modern usage the term usually refers to a judge or prosecutor. This was not always the case; in ancient Rome, a magistratus was one of the highest government officers and possessed both judicial and executive powers. Today, in common law systems, a magistrate has limited law enforcement and administration authority. In civil law systems, a magistrate might be a judge in a superior court; the magistrate's court might have jurisdiction over civil and criminal cases. A related, but not always equivalent, term is chief magistrate, which historically can denote a political and administrative officer.

On turn four, the mercy killing deck deals 16 trample damage with Chameleon Colossus, and then creates 16 3/3 elf creatures. Essential cards: Lanowar Augur, Mercy Killing, Wilt-leaf Liege. On turn four, the devoted magistrate deck creates an infinite mana loop and then an infinite +1/+1 counter creation loop, and then attacks with 4 infinity/infinity creatuers with trample.

Serge Raffy reçoit Eva Joly. La célèbre magistrate franco-norvégienne, "héroïne" de l`affaire Elf, vient de publier La force qui nous manque. Dans cette interview, la juge dénonce l`oligarchie française, l`iniquité de sa justice. Elle pense aussi que Sarkozy n`aurait pas été élu dans une démocratie sans s`être justifié au préalable sur le soupçon qui pèse sur ses transactions immobilières.

The business of this hearing was to simply defend an accusation of non-display of a UK vehicle excise disc. The registered keeper did have a valid disc for this vehicle however it was not on display. This started out as a fairly straightforward issue of a Freeman of the Land desiring to establish the authority of the Magistrate attending, however things quickly became interesting. Stroppy Magistrate, violent security thug, and then 5 fully geared up constables who forced us under threat of chemical and physical harm from the building...and we were also threatened with the infamous anti-terrorism act section 44 for good measure. Visit www.freedomrebels.co.uk for the whole story and further discussion. I hear rumours from down t'pub that someone may have filmed the events and is posting the video on the net. This shows why these court proceedings don't want the public recording them.... When the Government stops listening, it is your duty to rebel!

Magistrate Court is located at 110 Calle de Alegra, Las Cruces, NM 88005. Doña Ana County, Las Cruces, New Mexico LCPD Crooked Cop, Stupid Judge, Naive Judge Pat A. Casados chooses to naivly believe common crook impersonating cop Juan R. Stewart. Las Cruces Police Department. Dona Ana County Magistrate Court New Mexico NM LCPD, bad cops, don't elect bad judges Quotes: ..." Police officers abuse of their power and we are getting tired of it. I see cops taking red lights, and speeding all the time. Someone do something about it!! Oh, by the way, they are not solving crimes right. They blame the first person they can so that they dont have to work anymore. Also, what happened to the poor guy that was shot because he had a knife and was quite far from the cops. He got shot just for having a knife. LAS CRUCES POLICE OFFICERS ARE THE MOST CORRUPT, LAZY, UNFIT, AND STUPID COPS IN THE US They also like taking advantage of people, and they enjoy giving tickets for nothing."... ..."Talking briefly with citizens in a random, non-scientific way in the last couple of days reveals to me a growing frustration with rude behavior, excessive force, and unprofessional conduct on the part of the Las Cruces police. This is particularly true of people in the lower 60% or so of the income scale, but not always so. The city government and police department should take this report seriously and make a sincere effort to address the problems raised by this report before things get worse."...www <b>...</b>
