This case is supported solely by Wild Horse Education.

Please note the dates on the filings. The entire Appeal, that won in the Ninth Circuit, was crafted (stands taller than my knees) and on file 5/26/2011 and can be read here: http://wildhorseeducation.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/whenewsletterv1.pdf
