Congrats Ian! Rushed down to the library to catch the start of FTL's show after hearing this.

So shall we get a wheelchair brigade in for Ian's next court date?  See if he yells at them to stand up.

[Paul Comeau Jr]

This is great news.

I have a spinal injury, and those chairs would NOT be good for me to sit in for very long. My own mobile chair would be much more comfortable

Fantastic news!!!

[Vitruvian]

I just came over here to post this and then I heard the good news that Ian had already been released.  I don't know whether Ian would need a box -- maybe a large envelope.

I missed the show up til now.  Does anybody know if there was anything like a traditional trial? where the defendent makes an opening statement, calls witnesses, gives a closing argument, etc.?   Or did the judge just drag Ian into the next room and pronounce him guilty with no trial?

There was a trial... or they tried at least. Ian wouldn't consent to any part of it, but the judge almost took his side on the issue. The judge looked at the ordinance and said "This is what you're trying to charge him with? What if I have a gardening chair on my lawn?" Had Ian posed any defense, he may have been found not guilty on the couch issue.

This is great!    Awesome!   Dada your video was so helpful I'm sure and the way everyone stuck together and got this news all over!


Ian is free, yahoo!!! 

By the way I don't know what else is going to happen but I have a couch, (sofa bed), and 2 little kid pull out sofas if needed now or in the future.   I was coming on here to post about the sofas when I read that Ian is out.
