that is legal and that the mayor is still the mayor. he has not vacated the office and will not until he takes the oath. i've heard that on four different occasions. if we want to ignore the legal advice that is on the record, that is setting us up for a bit of a pratfall and i would strongly asking the question again. the mayor is the mayor until he hears the oath. the mayor was delayed and this just happened today. >> this is not seem like we're discussing my motion which has been properly been made and seconded. but i will withdraw my motion for now. >> i would from my notion gossip i have withdrawn my motion so that we can continue with this. >> if i man, let me ask the question, is there a possibility that a court in the state of california could have a different opinion than the one you have about the legality of the major stain on? is that possible? >> the answer is yes. >> thank you very much. that is the point, that these can differ and to the extent that we are stating where we are, that indeed that while there is an argument

miguel sanchez should have a legal right to stay. now, the final element in grimmond's case, the sheer length of time she had lived in the u.k., is also powerful. suppose she'd arrived in the britain at 20 rather than 4, would anyone really think that this difference would make it acceptable to deport her 60 years later? grimmond's case clearly illustrates there's some period of time beyond which it's reasonable to deport people who have settled without legal authorization. but how long is too long? what if grimmond had been 60 and not 80? would that have diminished her claim to stay? i assume not. what if she'd been 40? well, the poignancy certainly diminishes, but the underlying principle remains. there's something deeply wrong in forcing people to leave a place where they've lived for a long time. most people form the deepest human connections where they live. it becomes home. even if someone has arrived only as an adult, it seems cruel and humane to uproot a person in the name of enforcing immigration restrictions. the harm is en

the board find that it is a legal not complying structure. that is different from a variance. that is creating a new discrepancy from the planning code. this would be the board's finding that it was existing and legally permitted at a time when such a building envelope could have been permitted, which we believe was demonstrated at the previous hearings. i'm available for any questions. thank you. >> is there any public comment on this item? please step forward. >> members of the board of commissioners, thank you very much. i live a block away from 10 lundys lane. we used to have plates, our children, and spent a lot of time talking about her students at hillcrest elementary. it was not until i became the pta co-chair that are shared school that i realized how crucial dedicated teachers are to our education and what a tragedy it would be if a teacher liked anne were forced to leave by the cost and complexity of the housing situation which she finds herself in. i am alarmed at the delays that have taken place to the permitting process on this

even though they are legal, this is not legal. i hope the commission gets to work with us. come and visit the neighborhood and see where it is located and how much work has been already put to the place to keep it drug-free, crime free. even though we are looking at the tenderloin getting really nice in our area, things are getting cleaner, we want to tell everyone to the back and make it a wonderful livable place for our children. the beautiful mural was done on both sides of the corner at turk and jones, at 48 golden gate where we reside. we want to keep it clean and drug-free. we hope to deny this motion and bring us to that. thank you so much. we appreciate all the work to have done. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> my name is lynn norden gomez strabo -- lenore gomez trejo. i have already talked to you the last time we were at this again. and it is very sad to see that instead of paying attention to all of these older people like myself that live around the area that you can imagine considering opening something that most people already in the first meeting that w

owners are ruinously said net the permits were legal. they support the final city action to on reasonably qualified it as legal. they further established the legality for the environmental quality review. they stated that it received categorical exemption from environmental review. they said they did not need review beyond the main permit. later, they applied a retroactive extension. this will hopefully have the effect of allowing for environmentally reviewing the permit i would like to put something on the overhead if possible. >> just laid down on the overhead. >> this shows the alteration work and the results of an extension now i want to put up the sanborn map. this has 60 feet and only seven parking spaces. here they're building is short enough not to borrow an -- to bother neighbors three good -- the neighbors. it will stick out, blocking light, son, access to view, and in shooting on the privacy of the house. imagine this facing your bedroom at close range. this shows neighbors, and they are the ones most directly affected. this i

regulate that business activity i'm missing the official establishment bureaucracy a lack of proper legal consciousness and a well developed judicial system is missing that once we have a latin provided there is no corruption it would mean that russia is ready to steam ahead along its modernization track but work most of it with nearly all of the companies that are traded in russia are either controlled by the state or controlled by dorian heirs or also known as all other minority investors foreign investors are often find that in these circumstances they're not treated fairly all investors talk about it and yet the regulator does nothing. do you think the regulator should do more about it with a commodity you can get around any law including corporate law american or british the question is whether there is an effective control over the way the relevant legal regulations are applied a business is always looking to avoid the toughest norms unfortunately as regards to compliance with legislation in our country the situation here is as follows a business men often try to strike a bargain wi

citizen or legal resident. nine other states will soon follow suit. the total list, alabama, arizona, delaware, idaho, indiana, michigan, mississippi,' montana, nebraska, oklahoma, pennsylvania, texas and utah. the goal is not to change the 14th amendment in state legislatures. the inherent behind the state measures is to spur a legal challenge that will beresolved before the united states supreme court. question. as a practical matter, how can individual states deny birth right citizenship to infants. pat? >> after the 14th amendment, there were indians born in the united states who were not citizens. they had to be legislated. people have always understood that to deal with slaves and children who have been in this country. the states are challenging the supreme court decision, john, which had been wrongly interpreted 14th amendment. this is an enormous issue. 300 to 400,000 anchor babies are born every year. >> meaning what? >> the whole family of ill deal aliens in the united states when the baby is born. s

but to provide a legal analysis i can't do that of the top of my intense seconds. >> the legal analysis would go something like this, after heller if you are looking at a law that addresses magazine capacity, the question becomes whether or not a gun with this type of magazine is an arm of the kind people expect to find in common use for traditional purposes. that is the test of color. the question is not whether the bad guys can use it. obviously the preferred weapon criminal is the handgun but it's also the preferred arm for law abiding people exercise and self-defense. the question is not whether the thing can be misused, the question whether people expect to find it in common use for traditional purposes. now if you are talking about in an e 11 round magazine the fact of the matter is that the millions upon millions upon millions of normal hand guns come from the factory and ship with 15 or 17 round magazines and so i would imagine that that kind law would bear the common use and would be problematic under heller. but people don't often think about when they talk about these kind of

is this a cry i would like to say here that we do need to speak legal language or muse someone knows or somebody is. well we can think that way about any governor and not just in the russian federation. that you don't but if you are going to let me just stop you there are those who are so you have said that corruption is nearly total it's not just singular cases many people are corrupt so theoretically it shouldn't be very difficult to find people that you are where the evidence is there so why not do that. if the i believe we should act as follows for corruption has indeed penetrated all branches of power and it has spread far and wide after the emergence of a market economy and the political system which is only natural in the first be honest there were no such corruption levels in the soviet union why are we going to because there was no freedom and no market economy unfortunately our state officials are now businessmen were not ready to communicate in a civilized way from the start and corruption grew let me tell you the situation is difficult but not hopeless when i ask you alon

but that is not only a question of the legislation itself it's a question of legal coach or a question of effective compliance control and the question of effective work by nancy monopoly agencies let us look at the way things stand in the united states noncompliance with anti trust legislation is often a violation much more serious than a minor criminal offense because the consequences of this would be disastrous for any businessman so we have a lot to deal with a lot to work on when. we talk a lot about corruption and the need to clean up corruption you've taken some steps but you yourself admit really you haven't accomplished a lot why. if corruption is total as. you say it is in russia wide out go out person really seen your government officials. is this a cry i would like to say here that we do need to speak legal language someone knows or somebody is a. well we can think that way about any governor and not just in the russian federation. but if you don't but if you are going to let me just stop you there those are so you have said that corruption is nearly total it's not just sin

the legal process will grant legal status. if you managed to live here, we will grant legal status. there will be an incentive, if they think they can manage it. i wonder what your response was. >> there is a tension but one of the analogies i used, respecting property laws, statutes of limitation the. it is often the case in moral matters the personal my argument is there's a tension. there are better and worse ways to manage that tension. the assumption that states do not take the global models. i argue against it. people wind up talking past one another. they have different backgrounds assumptions. in conversations is helpful -- i am not sure i agree with everything, coming to some area of agreement and you might want to come back and reexamine the starting point. it is a question of having the discussion in stages. this particular topic it is sherri clear that the vast majority of people not only in the united states but in canada and europe and around the world. as a philosopher there are good reasons to question that. even given that constrained people become members overtime.

the legal legal profession arguably there would be no legal profession because there just wouldn't be the means to produce it. is that a price worth paying or is there some sort of back to it it -- for doorway up getting we are interested in journalism, they are reporting and all that and a world that really privileges diversity of opinion and diversity of power? >> so the question is whether we should always accept artificial barriers in the market or, in order to preserve things that we admire? i would say so but i say we overdo it a lot. the legal profession is a great example. it is not as bad as in other countries in the legal profession but a lot of people could do legal work who were not lawyers. it is something you don't need legal training to do. >> you are not saying this sort of two clicks to the the left a few positions that the crop will provide anything that has real value, right? >> if you wanted me to say that you would have to find somebody. you can find clay shirky or other people. i think there are differences in what it has produced. >> let me ask you. >> i guess m

takes a look at how the country's legal system has turned against its servants. a lawyer in georgia isn't easy these days as mahmoud knows all too well he was a successful practicing lawyer but he ses fell foul of government pressure so he found himself locked up they wanted to imprison me and they did so i spent two years and seven months behind bars. ses he was asked to force his clients to plead guilty. when i didn't agree to cooperate they found a person detained for stealing a mobile phone and sent into my office to take me as a lawyer the prosecution then offered him a plea bargain either he is sentenced to prison or testifies against me in court saying that he paid me one hundred seventy dollars for legal consultation and i swindled him it's estimated that georgia currently has around two hundred lawyers either in prison or awaiting sentencing mostly on fraud charges government critics say the real reason they're locked up is because they refused to make deals with prosecutors are said people and those lawyers who did not do the will of the the network com

they did not apply for a permit to legalize. the permit that is before us was to object to a project for which a cfc had been granted, so even if we had ample evidence in my opinion that they had done work before, i do not see, as was said by commissioner fung, if there are other standards for denying this, having to do with community standards, then we should base it on that. i would move for a we votere- vote -- i would move for a re- vote. i will leave that alone before we take a vote, and maybe i will make those comments. commissioner hwang: i just wanted to follow-up on what you were saying, commissioner garcia, on item four. and i could be misunderstanding what you're saying here, but it seems that the critical issue here is number five, and i think that is where the interplay is. the issuance of the csc. the underlying permit is evidence that is sufficient, and i find the prior evidence sufficient. at the same time, i heard no testimony today that additional evidence is out there that could counter some of the declaration

s the documents suggest at least sixty thousand asylum seekers will be left to live in legally in the united kingdom because the agency has lost all trace of them as part of roman simcox he's a research fellow at the center for social cohesion he told me the situation results from yukos open door policy and its obligations as a new you member. britain is essentially lost control of who is coming into the country and once you can secure your borders you can't secure your country this is a outrageous situation that's allowed to develop why there's a huge problem with the britains inability to deport generally. being part of the european union we often can't deport people but their country of origin because it may contravene the european convention on human rights on top of this there's a systemic problem where the huge backlog of cases and we have something like a half a million backlog of cases simply can't be processed and can't be dealt with quickly enough so you have a lot of people and that's immigration last year into the u.k. was around two hundred thousand people more coming to

the $754 was paid to planning when they were trying to legalize it. that was for a variants that was not followed through on -- a variance the was not followed through on. it is in the brief period i think those fees -- it was in the brief. i think those fees were not for a permit. no building permit was ever filed. on november 26, 2010, they removed the structure. at that time, dbi modified the value of work performed without the permits. the initial violation was 49 times $3,000. we reduced that to nine times $1,000. sometimes we do listen to people. this did not cost this much. the penalty would be significantly more than $1,800. i sympathize with the medical condition and the age of the property owners. at this time, i think the department have done everything feasible to drop the fees as much as possible. we do want to keep the nine times on the $1,000 penalty. i can answer any questions. commissioner fung: thank you. >> is there any public comment? seeing none, we can move into rebuttal. president goh: i actually have a question for mr. sanchez
