 MacDonald v. State (3/3/00) ap-1665
MacDonald relies on cases which hold that due process requires that a written copy of a complaint must be served on a defendant in a civil action before a default judgment can be entered against the defendant.
MacDonald also argues that his conviction should be overturned because AS 18.66.160(a) and (b), which allow a peace officer to use "every reasonable means" and the petitioner to use "other available means" to serve a domestic violence protective order is unconstitutionally vague.
MacDonald's proposed interpretation of the Act would allow a person who knows that an ex parte domestic violence protective order has been issued against him or her, but has not yet been served, to violate the order and, at the same time, avoid prosecution.

 Review | The Red Hot Typewriter by Hugh Merrill
John Dann MacDonald, who was born in 1916 in Pennsylvania and died in 1986 in a Wisconsin hospital, after what was to have been routine bypass surgery, was a fiction-writing phenomenon.
And then, John D. MacDonald, "in the voice of the most vitriolic Puritan preacher," writes a letter to his sister in 1969 "that makes Cotton Mather seem gentle," bluntly calling her a "self-destructive drinker" and warning her, "You need help" (which he offers to give).
Undoubtedly, John D. MacDonald had his faults and a person's flaws and failings must be included in a serious examination of a life.

Jack MacDonald was a founding member of the Communist Party of Canada and a member of its top leadership from 1921 to 1930.
In 1929-30 he tried to play a balancing role between the pro-Stalin faction headed by Tim Buck and the party majority based in the Finnish, Ukrainian and Jewish groups.
Many historians, following Tim Buck’s accounts, incorrectly describe MacDonald as a "Lovestoneite"—a supporter of the pro-Bukharin "Right Opposition," but he was never part of that current.
