Through just nine months of 2006, Richardson worked 57 cases. On Dec. The year in the courtsAs always, local courts were the scene for some of the most newsworthy events all year. One of the highest profile cases in years reached a conclusion in mid-July, when a federal judge sided with local police officers in a civil suit stemming from a botched meth raid carried out in a Frisco condo in 2004. The case, brought by former Frisco residents Kathryn Rhodes and Joshua Brudwick, asserted various search and seizure violations, false imprisonment, invasion of privacy, and other charges. But the judge in the case decided law enforcement acted properly, despite cops finding no conclusive evidence of methamphetamine in the condominium.

So far there are no reports of anyone seriously injured in the accident.
This accident, the fourth involving a multiple pile-up of vehicles in the last month, comes just as the first National Conference on Motorway Use is getting under way. At the opening meeting in London last night, Sir John Stone, the Metropolitan Area Traffic Adviser, criticised the standard of motorway driving in this country. He said that there was evidence that many of the basic disciplines of motorway use had yet to be learned by British drivers. Lane discipline was much worse in this country than in America; and the habits of drivers when overtaking were particularly bad. One saw far too much dangerous pulling-out without an adequate signal having been given, and there was a similarly dangerous tendency for drivers to cut in after overtaking.
Perhaps the commonest form of misuse however, was the reluctance of drivers of private cars to move into the inside lane whenever it was possible to do so. Sir John said that far too many were determined to stay in the middle or even the outside lanes, regardless of traffic conditions, with the result that drivers wishing to overtake became impatient and tried to follow too closely behind the vehicle in front, thus making accidents more likely. The conference is continuing. Now, the Common Market negotiations. Geoffrey Rippon, the chief negotiator, flew to Brussels last night.
Britain has put forward the suggestion that a reasonable contribution would be thirteen to fifteen per cent, built up in a series of equal yearly steps over a period of five years. But the Council of Ministers is considering a recommendation that the British share should be twenty one point five per cent throughout the five year period of transition, or, alternatively, a contribution of between ten and fifteen per cent in the first year rising to between twenty and twenty five per cent in the fifth year.

There have been signs that some European leaders are reluctant to take the present British offer seriously, and it is widely felt in Whitehall that Mr. The pamphlet claims that on balance farmers would be better off if Britain joined the Common Market. In addition, says the Union, the pamphlet fails to mention horticulture, which constitutes an important part of British agriculture, and which is likely to be badly hit in the event of a link-up with the Common Market.
The officials said that in their view the pamphlet tended to over-emphasize the benefits of joining the EEC, and to leave out of account many genuine difficulties.
