	9th US Circuit Court of Appeals Reduces Sentence (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-20)
		The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said yesterday that juries and not judges must decide on the amount of drugs involved in a criminal case when the amount is a factor that could increase a sentence.
		U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker of San Francisco had imposed the penalty after concluding during sentencing that Nordby was responsible for at least 1,000 plants.
		The jury in his trial in Walker's court found only that he produced a "detectable amount" of marijuana and was not asked to determine a specific amount.

		The 9th Circuit also disporportionately leads the nation in decisions overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court.
		Predictably, accusations by Democrats of a Republican agenda to dilute the 9th Circuit's left-leaning stance were denied by supporters who said the split (which will leave the 9th with just California and Hawii and create two new courts for the other seven states) is necessary because it has grown too large.
		Interestingly, defenders of the 9th nevertheless cite an extraordinarily heavy caseload as the reason for its abysmal record of 9th Court overturned decisions.

		Although the Supreme Court in June 2003 denied an appeal by the antiabortion advocates, their attorneys are asking the 9th Circuit to reconsider the case because they say recent Supreme Court rulings have narrowed the definition of a threat of violence.

		The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals is reviewing a lower court decision made last spring in which a federal judge ruled that distributing decentralised file-swapping tools such as Grokster and Morpheus was legal, and that their parent companies bore no legal liability for copyright infringement occurring on those networks.
		The appeals court, like the lower court before it, ultimately will determine whether technology companies are responsible for the illegal activities of people who buy or use their products, an issue that resonates well beyond the peer-to-peer world.

		The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled last Tuesday that Web loggers, website operators and e-mail list editors can't be held responsible for libel for information they republish, extending crucial First Amendment protections to do-it-yourself online publishers.
		The appeals court questioned whether Cremers' minor edits to Smith's e-mail altered it so much that the post became a new piece of expression, and decided it had not.
		But because Smith claims he didn't know the e-mail would be published, the court also questioned whether the immunity provision of the Act applied, and passed the case back to the district court.

		Pending any appeal by the Justice Department, the ruling is now in effect throughout the 9th Circuit, which also includes the medical marijuana states of Alaska, Arizona, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon and Washington.
		The court did not address the question of whether medical marijuana co-ops, where cultivators distribute marijuana to patients, are also protected.
		Attorneys for WAMM have pursued arguments parallel to Raich, telling the court that because members of the WAMM co-op trade the weed among themselves, they are not involved in interstate commerce.
