Hoo boy.

The court system cannot operate boilers competently, our flagship IT platform regularly fails, and we still use printers.

This feels… ambitious.

Due to escalating disruptive protests, I have decided to cancel the remainder of these lectures. This is deeply lamentable, but the disruption has undermined the academic nature of this series. Students shouldn't face bullying or harassment when attending academic events.

Another family contacted me....
I had to say "never forget the Court can conduct closed proceedings. You can be excluded by judge's orders from hearings about your relative. They may try to conceal from you that hearings are happening."
Awful but true.
