COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA, APPELLANTv.CLAYTON LEROY LISTON, APPELLEE
Appeal from the Order of the Superior Court entered January 8, 2008 at No. 1159 WDA 2006, remanding the Judgment of Sentence of the Court of Common Pleas of Fayette County entered August 19, 2005 at Nos. CP-26-CR-0001213-2004 and CP-26-CR-0001231-2004. 941 A.2d 1279 (Pa. Super. 2008).
CASTILLE, C.J., SAYLOR, EAKIN, BAER, TODD, McCAFFERY, GREENSPAN, JJ.
SUBMITTED: March 4, 2009
The Commonwealth appeals from the Superior Court's order remanding the matter to the trial court so that Appellee Clayton Leroy Liston may file a post-sentence motion nunc pro tunc. We hold that the Superior Court erred in declaring that a defendant who has been granted the right to file a notice of appeal nunc pro tunc shall also automatically be granted the right to file post-sentence motions nunc pro tunc. We further hold that the Superior Court's order impermissibly created a new exception to our decision in Commonwealth v. Grant, 813 A.2d 726 (Pa. 2002). We vacate in part and affirm the judgment of sentence.
Appellee was charged in 2005 by Fayette County authorities with two counts each of possession of a controlled substance*fn1 and possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance,*fn2 and a single count of criminal conspiracy.*fn3 These charges stemmed from two separate incidents in 2004 when Appellee supplied cocaine to a Pennsylvania State Trooper acting in an undercover capacity. Appellee was tried before the Honorable John F. Wagner and a jury on August 2, 2005, and convicted of the above-enumerated offenses.*fn4
On August 19, 2005, Appellee received an aggregate sentence of eighteen to thirty-six months incarceration. Appellee did not file either post-sentence motions or a notice of appeal. On December 14, 2005, Appellee filed a timely pro se petition under the Post Conviction Relief Act ("PCRA"), 42 Pa.C.S. §§ 9541-9546. Counsel was appointed to represent him and on February 6, 2006, appointed counsel filed an amended PCRA petition raising several claims alleging ineffective assistance of counsel, one of which was that trial counsel had been ineffective for failing to file a requested notice of appeal following entry of the judgment of sentence. Judge Wagner convened an evidentiary hearing and on May 31, 2006, issued an opinion and order reinstating Appellee's direct appeal rights based on a finding that trial counsel had failed to file the requested appeal. Although Judge Wagner took testimony on Appellee's remaining claims of ineffectiveness of counsel, Judge Wagner did not address them or issue rulings with respect to those claims.
Appellee filed a direct appeal to the Superior Court. Appellee raised one sufficiency claim and four claims of ineffective assistance of counsel. On January 8, 2008, the en banc Superior Court issued a published opinion. Commonwealth v. Liston, 941 A.2d 1279 (Pa. Super. 2008). The Superior Court declined to address Appellee's ineffective assistance claims, relying on this Court's decision in Grant. In Grant, this Court held that claims alleging ineffective assistance of counsel should be deferred until the collateral stage of proceedings.*fn5 Grant, 813 A.2d at 738.
Instead of resting with a plain application of the rule in Grant, the Superior Court turned its attention to this Court's decision in Commonwealth v. Bomar, 826 A.2d 831 (Pa. 2003). In Bomar, this Court carved out an exception to the Grant rule and held that an appellate court may consider ineffective assistance claims on direct appeal only if the claims were raised below, developed in the certified record, and definitively determined by the lower court. Id. at 854-55. Concluding that Bomar's reach should be extended, the Superior Court held that whenever a PCRA court reinstates a defendant's right to file a direct appeal, the PCRA court shall also issue an order permitting the defendant to file post-sentence motions nunc pro tunc. The Superior Court reasoned that such a procedural rule would conserve precious judicial resources because claims of ineffective assistance of counsel could be reviewed at an earlier stage of the proceedings, thereby obviating the necessity of a subsequent PCRA petition should the judgment of sentence be affirmed on direct appeal. Liston, 941 A.2d at 1284-85.
The Superior Court stated:
Therefore, in line with our decision today, henceforth, if the PCRA court determines that, in fact, appellate counsel was ineffective for failing to file a requested direct appeal and reinstates the petitioner's direct appeal rights nunc pro tunc, the court shall also reinstate the petitioner's right to file post-sentence motions or amended post-sentence motions nunc pro tunc. The petitioner can then raise whatever "other" claims of counsel ineffectiveness he/she wants to in post-sentence motions; the trial court can hold an evidentiary hearing, if warranted, perfect the record for review, and reach a final decision on the merits. In this way, the trial court's decision results in an appealable ruling, and the trial court will not be compelled to issue a merely "advisory" opinion. The record will also be complete so that this court may review the appellant's ineffectiveness claims on the ensuing direct appeal, consistent with [Commonwealth v. Bomar, 826 A.2d 831 (Pa. 2003)]. This practice will preserve valuable judicial time and resources, and save the appellant from having to file another, duplicative PCRA petition raising the identical claims later in the process.
Liston, 941 A.2d at 1284-85 (emphasis added). The Superior Court then addressed Appellee's sufficiency claim and, after ruling that it was meritless, relinquished jurisdiction and remanded the matter so that Appellee could file post-sentence motions nunc pro tunc. Id.
The Commonwealth filed a timely Petition for Allowance of Appeal and on October 31, 2008, we granted review of three issues:
a. Did the Superior Court contradict Commonwealth v. Grant in purporting to create its own new exception to that case?
b. Did the Superior Court contradict Commonwealth v. Reaves by holding that any PCRA petitioner entitled to a nunc pro tunc direct appeal is automatically entitled to nunc pro tunc post sentence motions as well, without proving prejudice?
c. Did the Superior Court usurp this Court's exclusive authority to create procedural rules under Article V, § 10(c) of the state constitution?
The issues in this case present questions of law, thus our standard of review is plenary and our scope of review is de novo. Commonwealth v. King, 939 A.2d 877, 880 (Pa. 2007).
The Commonwealth first asserts that, by mandating that permission to file post-sentence motions be conferred automatically whenever a defendant succeeds in having his right to appellate review reinstated, the Superior Court contravened our decision in Grant. The Commonwealth notes that in Grant this Court held the authority to make exceptions to its rule rests specifically in this Court. Grant, 813 A.2d at 738 n. 14 (stating that "this Court may choose to create an exception to the general rule"). Further, in Commonwealth v. O'Berg, 880 A.2d 597, 602 (Pa. 2005), this Court reiterated that the power to delineate exceptions to the Grant rule rests solely in this Court.*fn6
The Commonwealth further complains that the Superior Court's directive also conflicts with Commonwealth v. Reaves, 923 A.2d 1119 (Pa. 2007). In Reaves, this Court declared that the failure to file post-sentence motions does not fall within the limited ambit of situations where a defendant alleging ineffective assistance of counsel need not prove prejudice to obtain relief.*fn7 Id. at 1132. According to the Commonwealth, the Superior Court's decision eviscerates the Reaves rule because a defendant now has the right to file post-sentence motions automatically, without having either to request such relief or prove that he or she is entitled to it because of the ineffective assistance of prior counsel.*fn8 The Commonwealth asserts that in addition to undermining the decision in Reaves, the Superior Court's ruling herein creates an exception to the Rules of Criminal Procedure, specifically Rule 720(b), by "effectively convert[ing] optional post sentence motions into compulsory post sentence motions where a nunc pro tunc appeal is granted." Commonwealth's Brief, 9. On this point, the Commonwealth takes issue with the Superior Court's conclusion that its new rule is similar to the Grant exception set forth in Bomar. The Commonwealth argues that under Bomar, the filing and resolution of post-sentence ineffectiveness claims is not automatic. Rather, asserts the Commonwealth, the trial court has discretion to defer review of such claims until the post-conviction stage of the proceeding. Commonwealth's Brief, 9.
Another unintended consequence of the Superior Court's decision, according to the Commonwealth, arises in the situation where counsel fails to identify existing claims of ineffectiveness for purposes of a post-sentence motion, thereby waiving them under the provisions of the PCRA. See 42 Pa.C.S. § 9544(b) (stating that issues that could have been raised previously are waived for purposes of the PCRA). The resulting "waiver trap," the Commonwealth argues, will require subsequent counsel to "layer" any ineffectiveness claims, a requirement that the Grant decision was intended to eradicate. Commonwealth's Brief, 10.
In addition, the Commonwealth challenges the Superior Court's assertion that its holding will "preserve valuable judicial time and resources." Liston, 941 A.2d at 1285. The Commonwealth characterizes this purported benefit as illusory because it merely provides defendants with an additional collateral attack on their convictions. Commonwealth's Brief, 11.
Finally, the Commonwealth refers to the Pennsylvania Constitution, which provides, in relevant part, that this Court "shall have the power to prescribe general rules governing practice, procedure, and the conduct of all courts." Pa. Const. Art. V, § 10. This power to establish rules of procedure rests exclusively in this Court. See Commonwealth v. Morris, 771 A.2d 721, 736 (Pa. 2001). The Commonwealth asserts that the rule set forth in Grant was procedural and thus, under the Pennsylvania Constitution, only this Court has the power and authority to fashion exceptions to it.
In response, Appellee asserts that the Superior Court's decision should be affirmed "because it.correct[s] a gap in the system and.permit[s] counsel to pursue a prompt disposition of the claims of the [defendant]." Appellee's Brief, 9. Appellee argues that under the Superior Court's decision a defendant will be able to obtain review of any ineffectiveness claims without the unnecessary delay occasioned by the inability to raise those claims on direct appeal because there has been no hearing on them in the lower court.
After a careful review of the Superior Court's opinion, the applicable law, and the briefs of the parties, we conclude that the Superior Court overstepped its authority in this case. The panel determined that all defendants who have been granted the right to file an appeal nunc pro tunc also must be granted an automatic additional right to file post-sentence motions nunc pro tunc. Clearly, the Superior Court's holding creates an exception to the Grant rule in that it permits a defendant to obtain what is essentially collateral review even before a direct appeal has been litigated. In Grant we expressed a preference that review of ineffectiveness claims be deferred until the post-conviction collateral review stage of a proceeding because we recognized that "time is necessary for a petitioner to discover and fully develop claims related to trial counsel ineffectiveness." 813 A.2d at 737-38. Thus we concluded that "[d]eferring review of trial counsel ineffectiveness claims until the collateral review stage of the proceedings offers a petitioner the best avenue to effect his Sixth Amendment right to counsel." 813 A.2d at 738. While we created an exception to Grant in our decision in Bomar, we have explicitly reiterated the general rule in Grant and further directed that any exception to that general rule be accomplished only by this Court:
Accordingly, we believe the best course of action is to reaffirm our decision in Grant and reiterate that, as a general rule, claims of ineffective assistance of counsel will not be entertained on direct appeal. Moreover, we take this opportunity to disapprove of any decisions of the Superior Court that are to the contrary. For these reasons, we do not believe there is a need to create a "short sentence" exception to the general rule announced in Grant. Indeed, we fear doing so would undermine the very reasons that led to our decision in Grant in the first instance.
O'Berg, 880 A.2d at 602 (emphasis added).
As we did in O'Berg, we conclude that the Superior Court's decision in this case is capable of undermining the very purpose and policy underlying Grant. One of the reasons propounded by the Superior Court was to conserve precious judicial resources. Liston, 941 A.2d at 1285. While such a goal is laudable, the prospect that the Superior Court's decision will have the intended effect is doubtful. A defendant who is granted an opportunity to file post-sentence motions because his attorney failed to file a requested appeal maintains the right to seek post-conviction relief under the PCRA after his direct appeal is finally determined. This is an opportunity that most, if not all, defendants likely will take. Thus, the Superior Court's decision grants some defendants an additional automatic opportunity to attack their convictions based on claims of ineffective assistance of counsel, a recourse not available to all defendants. See Commonwealth v. Rega, 933 A.2d 997, 1030 (Pa. 2007) (Castille, CJ., concurring) (in a concurring opinion, then-Justice Castille commented that it is unfair to afford an additional avenue of relief to certain defendants).
Having found merit in the first basis upon which the Commonwealth challenges the Superior Court's decision, we need not address the Commonwealth's remaining claims. It is the policy of this Court to avoid deciding a matter on constitutional grounds if the issue can be decided on other grounds. Commonwealth v. Long, 922 A.2d 892, 897 (Pa. 2007). Once more, however, we caution the Superior Court with regard to its application of Grant and its progeny. When the panel in this case afforded all defendants who have been granted the right to file an appeal nunc pro tunc the automatic right to file post-sentence motions nunc pro tunc, it not only contradicted our decisions in Grant and O'Berg, it essentially attempted to promulgate a new rule of criminal procedure. The Superior Court's decision to afford additional rights to a specific class of criminal defendants is particularly problematic. Before a mandatory rule of procedure affecting an untold number of cases is issued, it should be studied and approved by one of our procedural rules committees, and then considered by this Court.
Accordingly, we vacate that part of the Superior Court's order that remanded the matter so that Appellee could file post-sentence motions.*fn9 We affirm that part of the Superior Court's order that dismissed Appellee's ineffectiveness claims, without prejudice to his right to pursue such claims on collateral review under Grant. Finally, we affirm the judgment of sentence.*fn10
Superior Court's order vacated in part; judgment of sentence affirmed.
Madame Justice Todd and Mr. Justice McCaffery did not participate in the consideration or decision of this case.
Mr. Chief Justice Castille files a concurring opinion in which Messrs. Justice Saylor and Eakin join.
Mr. Justice Baer files a concurring opinion.
I join the Majority Opinion to the extent it holds that the Superior Court erred in mandating that trial courts grant the filing of post-sentence motions nunc pro tunc in each case in which a defendant's direct appeal rights are reinstated. As the Majority recognizes, this holding improperly affords an enumerated class of defendants i.e., those who have had their direct appeal rights reinstated, the opportunity to raise claims of trial counsel ineffectiveness on direct appeal in contravention of our decision in Commonwealth v. Grant, 813 A.2d 726 (Pa. 2002), which held that, generally, such claims should be deferred to collateral review. I write separately, however, to disassociate myself from the Majority's characterization of the Superior Court's holding as "attempt[ing] to promulgate a new rule of criminal procedure," Slip Op. at 7, 9, and to provide counterpoint to Chief Justice Castille's Concurring Opinion advocating the abrogation of the exception to Grant created in Commonwealth v. Bomar, 826 A.2d 831 (Pa. 2004). I believe the Bomar exception remains good law, and the Superior Court's decision herein is an attempt, albeit an unwarranted one, to have the instant case fall within that narrow exception.
As to my first point, a fair review of the Superior Court's opinion reveals that the court was not promulgating a new rule of criminal procedure, but rather was evaluating a previous decision of that court, which addressed the issue of a trial court's scope of review in a collateral proceeding when one of the remedies sought and granted was the reinstatement of the right to a direct appeal. See Commonwealth v. Liston, 941 A.2d 1279, 1281-83 (Pa. Super. 2008) (examining the vitality of the Superior Court's previous decision in Commonwealth v. Miranda, 442 A.2d 1133 (Pa. Super. 1982), which addressed whether the trial court in a collateral proceeding is precluded from reaching the merits of additional issues raised by the defendant once the trial court grants a direct appeal nunc pro tunc).
Secondly, I note my respectful disagreement with the view taken in Chief Justice Castille's Concurring Opinion, wherein he asserts that this Court should no longer recognize a "Bomar exception to the rule of Grant," permitting defendants to raise collateral claims on direct appeal, unless the defendant expressly forfeits his right to PCRA review via the execution of a knowing and voluntary waiver of collateral review. Concurring Opinion at 9. While the Chief Justice has previously taken this position in his responsive opinions in Commonwealth v. O'Berg, 880 A.2d 597 (Pa. 2005), and Commonwealth v. Rega, 933 A.2d 997 (Pa. 2007), I feel compelled to highlight that a majority of this Court has never squarely addressed the issue. Further, the Bomar decision itself, which has never been abrogated or modified by this Court, set forth no such forfeiture requirement.
I acknowledge that in footnote 22 of our recent decision in Commonwealth v. Wright, 961 A.2d 119 (Pa. 2008), the Court cited Chief Justice Castille's Concurring Opinion in Rega, as follows:
Prolix collateral claims should not be reviewed on post-verdict motions unless the defendant waives his right to PCRA review, because the PCRA does not afford the right to two collateral attacks.
Id. at 148 n.22. This statement, however, amounts to nothing more than dicta because Wright was a direct appeal from the imposition of a sentence of death. Thus, the parties had no reason to raise or brief the issue of what review a PCRA petitioner is entitled under circumstances where a trial court, employing the Bomar exception, has addressed a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel on direct appeal.
As I recognized in my Concurring Opinion in Wright:
I agree with the observation that "post-verdict motions should not become an accepted repository for laundry lists of collateral-appropriate complaints...." Maj. Slip Op. at 37 (quoting Commonwealth v. Rega, 593 Pa. 659, 933 A.2d 997, 1032-33 (Pa. 2007) (Castille, J., concurring, joined by Saylor, J. concurring). Nevertheless, this Court has previously provided an exception to the holding in Commonwealth v. Grant, 572 Pa. 48, 813 A.2d 726 (Pa. 2002), delaying claims of counsel ineffectiveness until PCRA review, and allowed review of claims of ineffectiveness on direct appeal that were raised and addressed by the trial court on post-verdict motions, see, Commonwealth v. Bomar, 573 Pa. 426, 826 A.2d 831 (Pa. 2003). The Court, however, has never held that such process would result in waiver of subsequent full PCRA review. To the extent that footnote 22 attempts to change our jurisprudence in dicta supported only by cites to two concurring opinions, I respectfully disagree. I believe our established case law permits the review of claims under the Bomar exception without affecting a defendant's right to seek PCRA relief. Of course, in accordance with well-established judicial principles, claims that have been previously litigated at the time the PCRA is filed are barred. 42 Pa.C.S. §9543(a)(3). 961 A.2d at 158-59.
To be clear, I am not advocating that each PCRA petitioner be afforded two rounds of collateral review. In the vast majority of cases, our decision in Grant clarifies that claims of ineffective assistance of counsel are to be deferred until collateral review proceedings. The Bomar exception is only satisfied where the ineffectiveness claims were presented to the trial court, which, in its sound discretion, chose to address them on direct appeal; the trial court held an evidentiary hearing thereon; and the trial court ultimately ruled on the merits of the ineffectiveness claims in its opinion. Only in a case where all of this occurs, and a petitioner subsequently files a PCRA petition after his judgment of sentence becomes final, will the issue of the proper scope of collateral review under these peculiar circumstances arise. These conditions are simply not present in the matter now before this Court.
Accordingly, I respectfully caution against ruling upon this issue until it is raised, briefed, and argued by the parties in the appropriate case. See Commonwealth v. Dixon, 918 A.2d 95, 108 n.15 (Pa. 2007) (holding that "[w]e find it ill-advised, generally, to consider substantial questions not squarely presented and fully argued by the parties below and before this Court."). Absent a "real world" premise, we cannot begin to anticipate and analyze the peculiar positions advanced by thoughtful parties. Thus, it is inappropriate for this Court to hold that a PCRA petitioner per se forfeits his entire collateral review when a trial court exercises its discretion, for what one may presuppose is an appropriate reason, to dispose of a certain claim(s) of ineffectiveness on direct appeal, while leaving other collateral issues for the more typical post-judgment scrutiny anticipated by Grant. This is an especially important observation when one considers the already significantly limited nature of collateral review, via the one-year jurisdictional time restriction.

Shiners is finished! Huzzah! I have dedicated a lot of blood, sweat and tears to it and finally the newest child is released into the world for everyone's enjoyment. After finishing a book, I always have this weird sense of sadness, like I have lost something. <laugh> Or perhaps it is just trepidation and fear? After a dozen books my skin is slightly thicker than it once was; I hope Shiners brings entertainment to at least one person and if it does that's awesome!
Right now I am deep into editing of Shiners. The first go around gets the more glaring errors, then each subsequent pass gets fewer and fewer. I am the first to admit I suck at editing. I have had some outside help on occasion, but the economics are just not there to pay 6-8 thousand dollars for professional editing. This quandary had caused me a lot of grief over the years, internally as well as driven my external comments.
There is nothing like family to bring your head size down a peg or two if you find yourself unable to fit your swollen noggin into your old hats. I went a visiting to Illinois this past weekend for my Grandmother's 95th birthday and enjoyed the hell out of the family I brought and those I reconnected with at the party. My grandmother is still in excellent health, in fact she still passed her driving exam this year and has a valid license to get around with. Imagine that shit? Will you?
Today's blog title comes from a series of the same name that is becoming popular on Netflix. I watched it the weekend after it was released and enjoyed the hell out of it. It was a nice thriller that combined freaky other dimension monsters with psychic powers, kids, bullies, single parents, alcoholic sheriffs with nothing to live for, the kindly science teacher, government assassins and mad scientists. All rolled into an 80's setting with a Goonies like feel. I think the age range on it should be 10 and up, but some kids are more sensitive than others.
It has been a strange June, we started off cooler than normal, weather wise and now it is hot and humid like I'm used to. More rain and wet too, which I suppose is good for the farmers, but bad for the humidity. This adversely affects my enjoyment of Man-Deck-Night every week too. I still go out, of course, but I grumble more. On the energy conservation front the family didn't fire up the air conditioner unil around the 9th, which has to be a near record late start for the season. Also on that front I bought a new to me car, which is....<gasp> a hybrid.
May has been good to me writing wise. I've rewritten a lot of Shiners and got a few more words down on some other side stories, which is nice. I still feel very unproductive though, it isn't as if my muse has abandoned me, it's more like I'm just spinning my wheels in so many aspects of my life that I am feeling blah no matter what my fingers do for my word count.
I have to tell you something, I've got these weird wake ups in the middle of the night lately that I'm having a problem recovering from. Heart pounding, mind racing, it's unnerving to go from unconscious to 100% in half a second. Contemplating my own mortality is becoming a pastime for me these days. This morning I woke at 2:50 and knew I wouldn't be heading straight back into the dreamlands. So I got up, read the news, surfed some porn and then meditated around the question of "What happens when I die?"

MUMBAI (Reuters) - Canada's No. 2 pension fund, Caisse de depot et placement du Quebec (CDPQ), has acquired a minority stake worth $155 million in India's TVS Logistics Services Ltd, the privately held Indian company said in a statement on Wednesday.
The Canadian fund will buy most of the stake currently held jointly by Goldman Sachs and KKR & Co LP while parent TVS Group's management will acquire the rest.
Earlier this month, CDPQ partnered with Indian financial services firm Edelweiss Group and said it planned to invest up to $700 million over the next four years in stressed assets and private debt opportunities in India.
CDPQ opened its first Indian office in New Delhi earlier this year to scout for investments in South Asia, and said in March it was committed to investing $150 million in renewable energy in India.

7 reviews for Ryan Gosling Drive Jacket
This online store hasn't disappointed to such an extent that I wouldn't want to order from it anymore. Nevertheless, the jacket's quality is outstanding. Now I really know the difference between a high quality jacket and an "ordinary" jacket. They delivered 2 days later. I'm still going to order from here though.
The product is perfect. Though it would be better if it was one size bigger. But no problem, this one is acceptable. It doesn't need to be exchanged. The shipment was fast, it would take long like other stores do. It's good that this store is not like the others. I like that. I guess I should check-in again for another if I come across any.
I love this jacket because of its quilted design and the scorpion printed at its back. This is a lovely jacket, and I got so much positive response from my friends. The jacket is shiny and very lightweight. Will definitely buy again from this website if I need anything else.
The jacket is good, and everything is fine, but the problem is with the shipping. I ordered this jacket a few days back, and it came very late. Although I was in contact with the customer support, the guy was just saying that the parcel is on its way. The jacket is excellent and looks very cool. If it hadn't been the late arrival, I would have given it five stars.
This white colored jacket is the best in class! My brother loves to wear it, and he's made many friends at college on his first day. They call him the Scorpion and guess what, he also has the same zodiac star.
Same as in the image and I'm extremely satisfied with it.
I ordered a small size, but it seemed big on my thin torso. Still, I am stunned with this jacket and would continue to wear it even after Halloween feast.

RICHARD ERNEST ANAYA, PLAINTIFFv.ROSEANNE CAMPBELL, ET AL., DEFENDANTS.
Plaintiff is a prison inmate proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis with a civil rights action. Trial is scheduled for this case on October 25, 2010. Both parties have filed trial briefs, however, the court seeks additional briefing regarding plaintiff's ADA claims.
Defendants' state that plaintiff's ADA claims are limited to injunctive relief due to the Eleventh Amendment's prohibition of damages against a state. The court disagrees. In his amended complaint, (Docs. 86 and 88) plaintiff stated he sought $150,000 in damages.*fn1 In United States v. Georgia, 546 US 151, 126 S.Ct. 877 (2006), the Supreme Court held that Title II of the ADA abrogates state sovereignty and creates a private cause of action for damages against the states for conduct that violates the Fourteenth Amendment. Id.
With respect to plaintiff's requests for injunctive relief, the court notes that plaintiff seeks injunctive relief regarding conditions at Mule Creek State Prison, however, plaintiff is no longer incarcerated there. Therefore, plaintiff's request for injunctive relief is moot, but plaintiff's claim for monetary damages against Warden Campbell in his official capacity, i.e., the State, continues based on the allegations regarding ADA violations. Within 7 days, the parties shall brief this issue and provide proposed jury instructions.
The court has also researched the issue regarding a jury trial with respect to the ADA claims. While the law appears to be unsettled regarding jury trial for Title II violations, the court tentatively believes that a jury trial is appropriate for the ADA claims as well as the other claims. The parties shall brief this issue as well. See Matthews v. Jefferson, 29 F. Supp 2d 525 (W.D. Ark. 1998); Hernandez v. Hartford, 959 F. Supp. 125 (D. Conn 1997); Tyler v. Manhattan, 849 F. Supp 1442 (D. Kan. 1994); Outlaw v. City of Dothan, Ala., 1993 WL 735802 (M.D. Ala. 1993). See also Smith v. Barton, 914 F.2d 1330, 1336 (9th Cir. 1990) (jury trial appropriate under section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act).
With respect to the retaliation claim against Dr. Smith and that he allegedly discontinued plaintiff's use of certain medical equipment, the court also notes that it is also unclear if this claim can proceed as an ADA claim based on retaliation using medical treatment or if it is simply a retaliation claim. See Simmons v. Navajo County, Ariz., 609 F.3d 1011, 1022 (9th Cir. 2010); Burger v. Bloomberg, 418 F.3d 882 (8th Cir. 2005) (medical treatment decisions not basis for ADA claims); Fitzgerald v. Corr. Corp. of Am., 403 F.3d 1134, 1144 (10th Cir. 2005) (medical decisions not ordinarily within the scope of the ADA); Bryant v. Madigan, 84 F.3d 246, 249 (7th Cir. 1996) ("The ADA does not create a remedy for medical malpractice."). Moreover, any damages related to the retaliation claim presumably can not be associated solely with any mental or emotional injury as a result of the alleged sexual advances made by the defendant. Pursuant to the Prison Litigation Reform Act, "No Federal civil action may be brought by a prisoner confined in a jail, prison, or other correctional facility, for mental or emotional injury suffered while in custody without a prior showing of physical injury." 42 U.SC. 1997e(e). In the Ninth Circuit, this requires a "showing of physical injury that need not be significant but must be more than de minimis." Oliver v. Keller, 289 F.3d 623, 627 (9th Cir. 2002).
Within 7 days the parties shall brief the above issues and submit proposed jury instructions, or revised instructions.
According, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that within 7 days the parties brief the above issues and submit proposed jury instructions regarding these issues.

Highlighting the Top Open Source Pandora Radio Clients
Music streaming services have fundamentally altered the way that people access music. Sales of CDs have been steadily falling year on year although they continue to remain the dominant format for music purchases. Digital music sales have also been decreasing. These falls have come at the same time as a profound surge in popularity of music streaming services. Competition in this field is fierce, with music providers such as Spotify, Google Play Music All Access, XBox Music, Rdio, and Pandora all offering a convenient way to access a huge library of music without having to store physical discs or wait for music to synchronise with devices.

The Libreboot C201 from Minifree is really really really ridiculously open source
Open source laptops – ones not running any commercial software whatsoever – have been the holy grail for free software fans for years. Now, with the introduction of libreboot, a truly open source boot firmware, the dream is close to fruition. The $730 laptop is a bog standard piece of hardware but it contains only open source software. The OS, Debian, is completely open source and to avoid closed software the company has added an Atheros Wi-Fi dongle with open source drivers rather than use the built-in Wi-Fi chip.

This article will teach you how to set up your home theater system so that you can plug in not only your DirecTV HD DVR, but also a DVD player, Blu-Ray player, Playstation, Xbox, VCR or whatever else you might have...and never have to change the settings on your TV to access any of them.
Things You'll Need
- Good quality home theater receiver with at least two HDMI in ports and one HDMI out port
- Five to seven speakers
- One subwoofer, plus connector cables
- Two HDMI cables (or, if your TV does not have an HDMI port on the back of it, one set of component video cables)
- Speaker wire
- A surge protector to plug everything into behind the TV
- Black Sharpie
Hooking Up the Speakers
Step 1
Position the speakers where you want them around the room. For each speaker, take your bolt of speaker wire and measure out how much you'll need to get the wire from the speaker to where you've placed your receiver, then add an extra 6 feet or so. About 6 inches from the end of each wire that you've placed near the receiver, make a mark that will help you figure out which wire goes to which speaker, so you won't have to trace them back later.
Step 2
To connect the wire, strip off about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch off the end, then pull the ends apart, separating a bit of the remaining wire (maybe 6 inches down). Twist the threads of each side of the wire together. If you've purchased Monster wire, one side of the wire will have writing on it. Connect this side into the red speaker connector. Insert the other side into the black speaker connector. Complete this process for each speaker.
Step 3
Back at the receiver, complete the stripping process for each of the wires, then insert the ends into the appropriate speaker port--these should be well marked on your receiver.
Step 4
Connect your subwoofer into the back of the receiver using your subwoofer cables. Also, if your receiver has a power port on the back, plug your subwoofer into the receiver. This will allow you to shut off power to your subwoofer by simply shutting off the receiver.
Connect Your Electronics to the Receiver
Step 1
Connect one of the HDMI cables to the back of your DirecTV HDMI port. Then connect it to the back of the appropriate HDMI port on the receiver. Some receivers will require you to "assign" an HDMI port to a certain setting on the receiver, for instance, assign an HDMI port to the mode that will control your television. Check your receiver's manual for more information
Step 2
Plug in any other devices you might want to use into the back of the receiver such as a DVD player.
Step 3
If your TV has an HDMI port, connect the second HDMI wire to "Monitor Out" or "Out to TV' or something along those lines on the back of your receiver. Then connect the other end to the HDMI in port on the back of the television. If you do not have an HDMI port on your television, do the same with your component video cables, connecting them according to color code (your receiver will have a Video Out, or Monitor Out for these as well). Set the television to the appropriate mode--you will know which one as your TV should have it marked on the back. If not, check the documentation that came with your TV.
Step 4
Turn the volume on your TV all the way down; if you have sound coming from your TV speakers AND surround sound, it's apt to sound off-balance. You'll just need your home theater system now.
Tips & Warnings
- You may not want to spend hundreds of dollars in wires, think about it this way. You've just spent hundreds if not thousands of dollars on some pretty good equipment. The wires are the connectors between the equipment, essentially roads that connect one to another. Do you want a dirt path connecting your $500 receiver to your $2000 TV, or do you want a 10-lane super highway?
- You should throughly read the documentation that comes with your receiver before hooking anything up to it. While you need not fear breaking it if you've hooked up something, you'll want to understand all the settings and ports in case something goes wrong. Often, you'll have to go back and fix something after the initial setup--be patient.

How much does basement waterproofing cost in Pennsylvania?
There are a few approaches to retain water from your cellar or remove what gets in. The priciest, along with the most reliable, can require extensive excavation, our researchers learned in interviewing highly ranked companies and home-owners.
Interior-based water proofing approaches, often called facet projects that were negative, entail shifting water that's inside the house out. Repairing a water issue in the interior may be an alternative that is more economical, particularly where exterior function is't useful or possible.
Drain: This technique moves water through a pit in the foundation, combined with a sump pump from the house. Such a system should also include insulation of basement walls, with a vapor barrier to protect against condensation. Drainage techniques start at around $2, 000
Sealants: We do because they say they neglect too readily sealants are recommended by 't. The cost of a sealant-based water proofing project may range from $4to $8 a squarefoot.
Epoxy injection: Like sealants, this choice isn't always desired because it might supply only a temporary solution to fill cracks in added-concrete walls. $300 can be started at by epoxy shots.
Exterior water proofing projects are occasionally called positive side occupations because the purpose would be to stop water from getting in the home.
Excavation: We consider installing an underground trench or margin strain to be the procedure that is most reliable, if done accurately. On the other hand, the average range for an job is $20, 000 to $30,000, and may be as high as $80,000, determined by how accessible the targeted places are, how much digging is needed much landscaping or additional function should be restored
Sodium bentonite: This procedure consists of adding a clay substance to the dirt around your home absorb water and to fill splits. Since outside empties may block it's a solution that is temporary and hard to manage. Costs for this system begin at around $500.
Basement waterproofing in Custer City, PA
Basement water proofing in Custer City, Pennsylvania may ultimately save from having to spend a bundle on repairs later about. If you need to prevent spending a lot of cash on-water damage and mold repair services, you are going to definitely need to get your basement water proofed when feasible. Your basement will be prevented by these providers that are waterproofing from flooding therefore you wont have to spend hundreds if not thousands of dollars on repair services someday in the future. Because of the advantages they have to provide people who need to avoid flooding in their own cellar should begin considering Custer City basement water proofing services from nearby professionals. You will be able to prevent particular issues like mould and mildew, which can be extremely expensive to have mended by paying professionals to water proof your basement. You do not desire to take any chances, if your cellar has a background of flooding. Water damage can cost a lot of money to fix, which can be why you may undoubtedly need to make a stage of getting this part of your residence waterproofed as soon as possible. The last factor you need is to spend a fortune on fixing you could have averted in the first place.
