A woman convicted earlier this year on charges that she robbed a man in 2007 has won a new trial on grounds that she had ineffective counsel.

Judge Catherine Eagles of Forsyth Superior Court vacated this week the conviction of Tanesha Elaine Meekins and ordered a new trial.

A Forsyth County jury convicted Meekins on March 18 of robbery with a dangerous weapon and carrying a concealed weapon. The jury found Meekins not guilty of possession of marijuana. The trial was contentious,Beads necklace, as Meekins’ attorney at the time, Raymond Marshall, repeatedly clashed with Eagles.

After the trial, Judge W. Erwin Spainhour of Forsyth Superior Court issued a public censure against Marshall. A censure is a public reprimand that allows a lawyer to continue practicing.

Spainhour found that Marshall had back pain and was distracted because of a family member’s medical condition, circumstances that were not likely to arise again.

In the order issued Monday, Eagles ruled that Marshall’s performance "fell below an objective standard of reasonableness," and that his "misconduct negatively permeated the atmosphere in the courtroom." Because of Marshall’s conduct, Meekins did not receive a fair trial, the motion said.

Marshall declined to comment yesterday.

Eagles cited a number of instances during the trial in which she says that Marshall exhibited unprofessional conduct, including that he made faces to show his dissatisfaction with certain court rulings,rings, and that he repeatedly argued with Eagles during the trial. Eagles ended Marshall’s closing argument early because, she said,Charm bracelet, it was improper.

Clark Fischer, who is Meekins’ new attorney,earrings, said it was clear to him that she did not get a fair trial.

"I have been doing this for 30 years,bracelets, and I have never seen a trial transcript with the number of irregularities that this one had in it," he said.

Fischer said that the next step is to have a hearing for Meekins to see if she can be released while awaiting trial. A trial date hasn’t been set.

"The whole thing has been very sad that it went the way it went," he said.

A local youth football league does not have to register a child who was denied entry because of previous conflicts between the boy’s father and league officials, a judge ruled Thursday.

Tulsa County District Judge Rebecca Nightingale denied a temporary injunction sought by 12-year-old Brayden Mathis’ mother, whose request to enroll her son in sixth-grade football with the Indian Nations Football Conference was denied late last month.

The boy’s father sued the conference three years ago when it denied a request for the then-third-grade Brayden to transfer to a team in the Jenks school district. The family lived in the Union district at the time.

A different judge ruled then that Brayden should be allowed to play in Jenks, although further complications arose when the family did not move into the Jenks district in accordance with the agreement.

The family did eventually move and has lived in Jenks since late 2007.

Brayden played in a different conference — which his father created — during the fourth and fifth grade, but he requested to play with Jenks in the Indian Nations Football Conference during the sixth grade.

The boy, who kept his head down during most of the hearing and cried as he took the stand,bangles, said he wanted to play with his friends.

"I want to play football with my friends from school, and I want to wear a jersey with my school’s name on it on Friday," Brayden said.

Tom Askew, an attorney for the conference, said the organization

must have rules to avoid chaos and was in keeping with its regulations when it denied the Mathises’ most recent request.

Conference officials acknowledged that the punishment was rare and harsh but said it was the only way to proceed because experience showed that the boy’s father,earrings, Tony Mathis, would not honor any agreements with the conference and would not abide by its rules.

Tony Mathis was banned from all conference events in 2007, but he still attended two games that year and had to be escorted out, conference officials said.

All the witnesses at Thursday’s hearing said Brayden had broken no rules and that they had heard nothing but good things about him.

Dana Mathis testified that she brought the suit this year to avoid bad blood between her husband and the league.

She was not familiar with many details of the previous court events and said her husband handled most of Brayden’s involvement with football.

"I’m the wife,tiffany," she said. "I don’t know."

League officials said none of the Mathises asked about registering with the conference until several days after the July 22 deadline.

Nightingale ruled that the Mathises had not shown irreparable harm from the conference’s decision and had not proven that the conference had acted outside of its rule book.

One of the league’s commissioners testified that Brayden could play in other leagues during sixth grade and thus had options beyond Jenks.

After the judge read her ruling, Brayden cried and huddled with his mother. His father was not present in the courtroom.

"Often the rights of the many have to prevail over the rights of one for an organization the size of the INFC to operate,Charm pendant," Nightingale said.

The conference has registered about 10,rings,000 children for the 2010 football season, which lasts about 10 weeks.

The Mathises’ attorney, Steve Hjelm, said he was disappointed with the decision but doesn’t plan to appeal.

"It’s unfortunate they went to such great lengths to keep a sixth-grader from playing football," he said.

Marina Brownlee thought she was doing a good deed for the town of Winthrop last week by distributing health department stickers around town for the city clerk.

But instead of a pat on the back,Charm bracelet, the 12-year-old girl got a $124 ticket from the Winthrop marshal for littering.

The ticket actually went to Brownlee’s mother,rings, Natalie Crace,necklaces, who is also the city’s deputy clerk.

She said Marina was with her 9-year-old sister and a friend, and they were all passing out the stickers designed as a reminder to wash your hands frequently. "As far as they knew, they were doing their little community service," she said.

Winthrop Marshal David Dahlstrom said he has no reason to doubt the Winthrop resident who reported that Brownlee littered.

He agreed that she was passing out stickers. But according to the woman who called police, he said, "She threw them all over the yard and inside her car. And she came back and did it again later."

Crace said she believes her daughter, who told her they left four stickers at the woman’s home on Aug. 18: one at her door, one under an ashtray on an outside table,earrings, and one in each of the cars in the driveway which had the windows rolled down.

She said the neighbor confirmed that when she talked to her the next day. The woman, she said, thought her daughter was another neighborhood girl who had been harassing her, so she called police because she thought the girl needed to be talked to.

Crace said she’d be the first to agree to punishment if she thought her kids had littered. "My kids don’t litter. They pick up litter," she said.

They’ve also done other door-to-door work, like collecting donations for UNICEF and The Twisp City Pool, she said.

Crace said she’s only upset about how the Winthrop marshal handled the situation. She said he "browbeat" her daughter in an attempt to get her to admit guilt. She cried for hours after he left, she said.

And even if her daughter did litter, she said, she would expect him to give her a stern lecture, and warn her of the consequences if she did it again.

Dahlstrom said he does everything he can to be even-handed as he enforces the law in his small, tourist town.

He said it’s not his place to judge what happened. He received a complaint,watches, and the complaint seemed valid, so he pursued it.

"When I talked to the daughter, she didn’t tell me whether she did, or whether she didn’t," he said. "That’s why I’m letting the judge decide whether it’s valid, or not valid."

He added that the matter is a civil infraction, not criminal, and with conflicting information, it’s best for a judge to decide the matter.

The marshal said he didn’t give Marina a warning because that assumes guilt. "If I gave her a warning, it would mean I’m incriminating her. I’m saying, ‘You did this,’ and I’m warning her not to do it again," he said.

"I would like for the judge to be able to decide the truth."

Without further action, that’s just what will happen next month.

Crace said Winthrop Municipal Court is held monthly. "All of the little girls are ready to go to court and tell the judge their story," she said.

Soccer people call these kind of plays 50/50 balls, because two players on Tiffany Money Clips team presumably have an equal chance to gain control of the ball.

Maggie Bosley, a South Aiken senior center midfielder, has a way of tilting the odds of these moments to her advantage. She won a 50/50 ball in the middle of the penalty box and whistled in a shot to start the scoring of her team’s Class AAA state quarterfinal against Airport on Friday night.

“If there is a 50/50 ball on the field, she’s the girl we want going after it,” South Aiken coach Jason Holt said.

Bosley, a Wofford recruit, helped South Aiken to its 10th consecutive win, a 4-0 rout of Airport. South Aiken beat its region opponent for the fourth time this season and will play at Hilton Head Island in the semifinals Monday. The winner will play for the state title Friday in Columbia. South Aiken lost in the state final 2-0 to Riverside (Greenville area) a year ago.

South Aiken (19-2-2), whose only losses this year have come against Class Tiffany CuffLinks teams White Knoll and Wando, shut out its sixth consecutive opponent and did not allow Airport to take a shot on goal.

The Thoroughbreds had won their previous two playoff games by a combined 19-0 and had beaten Airport 2-1, 3-2 and 4-0 earlier in the year. It took South Aiken nearly the entire first half to register a goal, but once it did even a 1-0 lead seemed insurmountable.

Anna Loudermilk scored two second-half goals in the final 11 minutes for South Aiken, which outshot the visitors 18-0. Amanda Harris also scored for South Aiken.

“It just took us a little while to wake up as a team,” Holt said. “Our touches were a little off. I don’t really have a n explanation for why, but once we warmed up and started to get a little hungry, we got back in the rhythm of the team we think we can be. Once we get close to the goal and see our captains start to lead the way, the whole team rallies behind them and we start to play good soccer”.

The first goal was the most important against a team Holt said he expected to play a defensive game and attempt to take the Thoroughbreds to penalty kicks.

That plan scooted awry six minutes before the half, when Bosley fought off a defender inside the box, chased a well-touched pass from Harris and gained control of the ball. From there, all it took was a simple touch to beat Airport goalkeeper Cassie Shumpert. It was the Thoroughbreds’ 12th shot of the half, Tiffany Key Rings included a scorching strike from Bosley 15 minutes into the game that smashed off the crossbar.

Food & Drug RETailers ; Price war breaks out among grocers ; tiffany jewellery Doubts cast over green shoots

Asda has signalled the most cut-throat Christmas for a decade by firing the starting gun on a multimillion-pound supermarket price war.

Britain’s second-biggest grocer pledged to cut prices by pound(s)150m, but was immediately trumped by bigger rival Tesco, which vowed to save shoppers pound(s)250m.

The moves underline the increasingly competitive nature of the sector, with grocers fighting harder for sales as sharp rises in food prices fizzle out and the stores expand aggressively into non-food lines.

Judith McKenna, finance director of Asda, said this year would be “the most competitive Christmas for a decade”. But she insisted: “We are not interested in price wars.”

However, she admitted that Asda had benefited from promotions, including a silver rings toy sale where it sold more than 30,000 doll’s houses priced at pound(s)35 each.

Asda reported a rise in sales from stores open for at least a year of 5.6 per cent in the three months to September 30, a drop from 7.2 per cent in the preceding quarter.

Ms McKenna said the slowdown was entirely due to increases in food prices coming to an end. She said the volume of products sold was up, while profits were expanding faster than sales.

Families sitting in front of the TV on a Saturday evening watching The X Factor were helping to boost demand for food from pizzas to curries, as well as family favourites such as spaghetti bolognese and sausages and mash.

“It’s just like the 1970s with The Generation Game and Morecambe and Wise,” Ms McKenna said.

While some confidence is returning, she said that consumers remained cautious about the silver bracelets outlook for next year amid expected tax increases and public sector job cuts.

“We believe the green shoots of recovery that we’d all like to see could be held back by a few frosty moments in the months to come,” she said.

She hinted that Asda could hold off from passing the increase in the VAT rate on January 1 on to its customers.

Ms McKenna also played down an internal restructuring of the business carried out in August.

She said the exercise, under which Walmart, Asda’s owner, altered the internal ownership silver cufflinks structure of Asda, consolidating 30 separate companies into two,improved the way money flowed through the group and taxes were paid, although she insisted there was no change to the amount of tax Asda paid.
