the sullivan and cromwell attorneys were representing mr. maples up through the argument, the decision in the eleventh circuit. but i think for purposes of what this court would do, i think a remand would be appropriate, because if you conclude, as we think you should, that abandonment of counsel would be an external factor, then it would be appropriate to remand for further proceeding. we don't know what these other attorneys were doing. the record doesn't show that. justice ruth bader ginsburg: we do know, though, that they were not counsel of record. mr. garre: we absolutely know that they were not. justice ruth bader ginsburg: we know that the two who were listed of as counsel of record were not representing him and they hadn't told the court. mr. garre: they were not counsel of record. mr. maples never agreed to have anyone else represent him in a way that could bind him. the alabama court specifically found not only that they weren't counsel of record, but they were not authorized to practice in alabama. this is on page 223 of the peti

march, which it sullivans march, just south of market. not only did it solidify and saddle, but when the ground slopes, and actually flows and moves latterly. some areas of mission creek and sullivan's marsh, that was on the order of 15 feet. it was significant. everything you see south of market was built after the 1906 earthquake. the longer the time between the 1906 earthquake and the time of construction, the more likely people forgot about all the damage that occurred in 1906. so they were not as sensitive and perhaps cautious as they should be. many of these buildings that we see south of market, while they appear to be in excellent shape and are performing well, have not been either seismically strengthened or had at the subsurface conditions improved, so they are waiting. there could be significant damage during the next major earthquake. >> that reminds me of one of the central questions i wanted to ask you. which is this example relief focuses on the point. that is, what would you recommend for someone who is considering purchas

in our first floor exhibition space, we have an exhibition on the work of charlotte sullivan. she was a young artist in berlin. the nazis came into power. her parents sent her to the south of france to live with her grandparents. she put herself in a room for about 18 months and created 1200 small paintings telling her life story through a kind of reflection. it is another example of the way we try to bring a wide range of art and experiences to our public. we want them to find something meaningful to them. >> your institution has been in this neighborhood for three years. how do you like the neighborhood? >> this is the best neighborhood. we are the luckiest city in the world to have this kind of cultural district, to have so many museums and cultural institutions. the center of our tourist life is here because this is where the convention center is. people from near and far can be introduced to the richness of the bay area. it is so wonderful and unique. >> the city thanks you for providing such wonderful leadership and vision. >> we're so happy to be part of the city and so

and if prescribed the sullivan principles. the sullivan principles, which set standards -- rev. sullivan is a member of the board of directors -- and it would set the first standards to regulate corporations along a human rights set of standards for treatment of their overseas workers, which led to further growth in international law along the lines of greater liability of multinational corporations for human rights violations. the sullivan principles became a template for an opening of international law to regulate human rights standards. we have now and we have had, because of the combination of these events and many others -- we know that effort commit -- african-americans know that they have interest in international law. what implications does this have? one implication is that america must run its foreign policy and washington must relate to the hinterlands and its population differently. now washington is relating to a population where each minority group has its own international jurisprudence. the genie is already out a bottle. and african-americans developing their own

his lawyers are not longer at sullivan and cromwell. i don't know how that is abandonment. >> absolutely, your honor. the presumption generally says -- that is correct. the client can certainly move that firms with a lawyer. >> we are not talking about abandonment in this respect. we are talking about notice going to no one and a clock ticking from a certain date that no one knows about. they were preparing for a hearing before this judge. they were not anticipating he was going to roll without anything further. >> that is correct. they were repairing -- preparing for a another hearing. contrary to my friends a statement, on page 222, maples alleged that they were preparing for the evidentiary hearing. >> as far as the record shows, he is not on the record at all for free -- free counsel of record -- let's go back to the post issue. it did not regard butler at any time? he did not even sen its route want -- or 22 responses. >> i respectfully disagree with that assessment of how we can read the service several 32 answer. under alabama la

. >> ray sullivan is the communications director for governor perry's presidential campaign and joinso see you this morning. >> good morning, thomas. >> so even as governor perry unveils his economic plans and puts out that sharp message, he makes some gaffes, comments about the birther issue, president obama's citizenship, basically. even conservatives questioning whether governor perry is his own worst enemy. does he need to get back on message, or do you think he's never even gotten off message? >> i think the governor certainly is on message. i think yesterday the cut, balance, and grow economic plan. cutting tax rate s down to a flat, fair 20%. building on that energy job plan put out about ten days ago, that we believe will create about 1.2 million good, american jobs and eliminate our reliance on hostile energy. so when it comes to job creation, no one better in the country. 40% of the jobs since june of '09 created right here in texas. the governor putting forward plans to take that job creation, take that fiscal conservatism to the rest of the country. >> well, governor perry

if we're going to have a city that is safe, sullivan, and successful, we need to invest in our residentsnd our businesses right here in our city. what i am going to do is help the staff run through this. because if they can keep up with the slides, you will see pictures of the things i am talking about. hopefully that will resonate with you as i summarized the things we're doing in our business world and in our decision making good that is what jobs and business climate are my top priorities. that means creating and retaining jobs, and creating the conditions for businesses to start here, stay here, and took root -- and to grow right here in san francisco. in our current economic state, in august, the unemployed married in san francisco fell a little bit, to 8.8%, from 9.1% in july. this is still the third lowest in california, and we can and we will do better. the good news is that san francisco is resilient. and we proved that we are competing and winning businesses, even in these tough economic times. san francisco is home to more than 1500 technology companies. 74 life science compan

although ray sullivan wouldn't fully confirm that report. been down a lot over the last week. something's been going on, that's for sure. >> you and i would both be shocked if rick perry were not doing serious debate prep. the people around him have been pretty open about the fact that he has not performed well in these first few debates. that he has to do better. that he needs to do more preparation. and that they're determined he's going to get that. so i think that if he's not ready tomorrow night when he steps on the stage, it won't be for lack of effort on the part of the people around him to get him ready. >> every one of these debates this fall, it's always been is this going to be the debate where romney finds himself on the defensive? hasn't happened yet but there is evidence it could happen tomorrow night. we've got the new, obviously new attack ad that perry's got out this morning online. but even michele bachmann over the weekend, she made reference to the youtube videos of mitt romney saying you'll never find me on both sides of

ray sullivan and our conservative contributor dana lash. ray sullivan on that question. governor clearly not happy with the structure and format of the debates. does that mean he will not play in some of them? >> well, john, there have been eight republican debates so far, five since governor perry got in. we certainly respect the process, but when you've got eight or nine candidates and 30 seconds to a minute, it takes valuable time to away from campaigning in iowa, as those elections approach. >> do i take that as -- are you saying he is going to look over the calendar and scratch some of them out? >> john, i think 18 more in the planning phases. there's no way that the candidates can do all those debates. >> dana, can governor perry afford now whether you accept or disagree with his format. i feel for the candidates and i learned a lot of lessons myself. hard with seven or eight candidates up there. now that he is at third and fourth in some states, start saying i am not going to come to your debate? >> i don't think he can at this point. i do kind of agree, it's diff

cnbc's brian sullivan is here with what's move your their money.hey're closing about a fifth of its name sake stores. >> it's tough. they've got about 889 stores. they say in a few years they're going to taket down to 700 stores. the gap has sort of struggled to find its identity. it also owns banana republic and old navy. they're all down, this at a time, chris, when almost every other retailer is doing well save for just a few. the overall retail sales, which is back to school, were up 1.1%, which is the best number we receive since february. i know there's been a lot of o talk about a so-called double-dip recession. we've been saying it on "street signs," there's unlikely to be one. a little good new on a friday. >>> there's been a lot of backlash for bank of america to charge five bucks a month for debit cards. >> think this is a smackdown on the big banks. community bank in tampa, 17 locations, small banks. here's what they're going. they're going to give you five buck as month if you sign up for a new checking account. they say these debit ca

sullivan, thanks so much for joining us. let's talk about the debates. was it a mistakes or does he have to be in the debates? >> well, the governor has been in five debates. there have been eight republican debates. i think there's something like 18 more scheduled before the end of january, but it is an opportunity for the governor to talk about his best in the field jobs record, increasingly our jobs plan, mr. harwood mentioned the flat tax probably the governor put out earlier in the week. we're going to be doing more debates, and it is part of the process. >> but the bottom line is he's got to be able to compete. barack obama and hillary clinton had more than 20 debates, and that really ask what toughened up obama and made him the victor for the nomination. doesn't rick perry, especially because he was not as well-known as hadn't run before, doesn't he have to prove he can compete in this arena. >> we have to prove we can compete and win across the board, that means the five debates we've done, the debates we're going to do, as well as working on vot

that's impressive and cnbc's brian sullivan, we digress. thank you so much. >> the senate is set to vote to open debate on the president's $450 billion jobs bill and it faces a steep uphill battle despite a millionaires' tax. i'm joined by correspondent kelly o'donnell. kell, good morning. what are we expecting tomorrow? >> we know the senate won't work as fast as the netflix lady at the speed of light there, but what they want to do is give the opportunity to bring the president's jobs bill to the floor for debate, but it's not one the president wanted to outline himself in the big address to congress. democrats in the senate have been very reluctant, a number of them to go forward with it and they've done their own retooling and theya added the millionaire surtax and that's 5.6% on top of earnings above $1 million and that will be able to do what at least democrats think can be a more sellable way to pay for the president's jobs plan, bringing in enough revenue to cover the cost of the program. the problem is how do you get even a few rep

are wrong, it was painted over long before the perry family ever got into this, that's what ray sullivan from the perry communications director says, but there's contradictory evidence to the "washington post." >> i would say andrea, look, you don't ever want to have racially charged in your name connected to anything when you're running for president. this is another story where rick perry, who struggled in debates, who we know he is not where they want to be, a month and a half into his campaign, another storyline he doesn't want to tell you, he wants to be talking about jobs, the jobs he created in texas it, economy in texas, instead, talking about a story with racial elements, obviously dang roux, heard herman cain, the african-american candidate in the field, and elect ability for perry, he is going to be running, if he can, against the first of a for president. this is not a minor issue in his campaign to take care of. >> chris cillizza with the daily fix. talk to you later about the the next 24. thank you very much. >>> president doesn't know hot had opponent will be left and chri

[laughter] quite frankly, the republican strategy is that simple. it gets down to one thing. make that 2012 presidential election a referendum on barack obama's policies and the results of those policies. his record. because he cannot run on his record. the republicans have to know that. his record is not approved by critical groups, seniors, and dependents, -- independence look very much like obama's policies and the result has gotten. obama once this election to be anything but a referendum on him. he wants to run against george bush is what he wants to do. we will see. typically, elections of incumbents are referendum on the incumbents. but the democrats will do w
