Sleeping Roughly! An Evicted Rentpayer Hollers

  TEXT, "NORTH DAKOTA CASE STUDY: THE EVICTION COURT'S FAST TRACK TO HOMELESSNESS" by Breezy A. Schmidt , North Dakota Law Review 93:3 https://commons.und.edu/ndlr/vol92/iss3/3   This is a very fine paper from a law review whose venue is North Dakota U based, with a 'free commons' approach to access. The fact that its location of origin is from a non-Kentucky state (most states are NOT KY laugh!) is negligible, for its content exactly corresponds to the situation for evictions/eviction-court here in Louisville, but really for minor details associated with the installation of common law use and practice of forced-detainer eviction-homelessness. I KNEW that the Lord of the Land concept so vigorous in this 'Redneck Korn Likker' place is just feudal, and so it seems to be almost everywhere in this also-Redneck country, North Dakota evidently being no exception. Here, Schmidt has given me material of great value: a clear portrayal of the English common law sy...

 Readers! It may have been brought to your notice that for a period of some weeks, I have not made entry into this web-log. I think my story re eviction has largely been told, and thus with MY story all that would remain might be a few details, perhaps closely-connected-in-mind as to be fairly redundant: I esteem THIS PART of my concerns about eviction, particularly unfair eviction, has been sufficiently-told. BUT! There is another concern atop the tale of woe which was mine (kicked out having paid rent, with no WHY given); this would be the bigger fact that the Eviction Moratorium has been ended by the Supreme Court of the United States.  THERE ARE MANY MORE PEOPLE ABOUT WHO DID NOT PAY THE RENT AS I DID AND WHO IN SHORTER TIME WILL 'HIT THE STREETS' AS I HAVE DONE. I am motivated now to play "advocate": as a student (Donovan Scholar at U of Louisville, senior citizen who can take classes free of tuition) I can tap the deep resources of my college to peruse and distr...

 At the Free Public Library, the otherwise sweet woman-librarian begins to raise her voice, "Sir! You have asked for a library card several times before; you cannot have a library card without a physical address. Sorry." At the driver's license place called NIA, in the far West-End of Louisville, the applicant is turned away IF NO LONGER HOLDING A GEO ADDRESS; more of the same as in paragraph-above. At the bank, the applicant needs to have a geographic address. At the post-office, from what I understand, one needs have a geo address in order to claim mail, a 'geo-somewhere' is needed, I suppose with ID so-showing. I am less sure about this-one, but do believe that to be eligible to vote in Kentucky, one must have a physical address here. YET!!!! When I had forced eviction from my apartment at 3640 Manslick Road, #18, I was really not given the opportunity to port away my several forms of ID-- driver's license, health insurance card, nor the boxes-full of ident...

 Last year, when the issue of homelessness THEN was only felt distant, when I felt there WOULD BE NO SMART REASON TO EVICT ME AS RENTPAYER, AND A KIND RENTPAYER, AT THAT, the National Alliance to End Homelessness pressed a 'white paper' limning the situation that homeless transgender people experience. I have 'scanned' this article as a fairly-swift reader with more-than-fair comprehension skills, and in summary The article states that the number of transgender people becoming homeless is INCREASING; most of these trannies do not find shelters in which to stay, and correspondingly, the unsheltered majority of them have perils in excess of their comparable cis-gendered homeless folk. The comparison, across the board, is clear that the unsheltered of these are more prone to abuse, being-drug-into-jail, disease and mental disease; moreover THE PERIL FOR BLACK TRANSGENDERED HOMELESS IS EVEN MORE DIRE ON THESE VARIABLES THAN FOR WHITES. The report states that almost 30 trans...

 It may be accurately surmised that I am scouring the publications, scholarly and popular, on homelessness: I am aware that somehow what I read is rather a 'bad fit' to my personal concerns at the moment. I am yes in the midst of a Covid "hot" place as all homeless shelters probably are, I am yes disdained for what seem to be my "hate-able" girl-dressing as transF, I am yes 'between homes' with no solid fix on where my next domicile will be, I yes have been clubbed by a homeless 'camper' in a way that the over-diagnosing folk would call "PTSD," and all all all that. . . BUT the practical and existential JOB 1 for me is none of these, but rather I am challenged by the fact that by force of circumstance, I must FIGURE OUT HOW TO BIDE TIME IN PLACES WITHOUT GETTING 'SECURITY'/911/TheCops FOR SINGLING ME OUT AS LOITERER <AND THIS COMPLICATED WITH THE MASK MANDATE WITH PSYCHOTIC DISCREPANCY ENFORCED IN SUNDRY PLACES; THE BUS D...

 Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer just announced that open property has been set aside for 'campers' as I call the homeless people who prefer, or who cannot do otherwise than, sleep out of doors, and not (as I) in a shelter. At this link, I have posited a link to the transcript of this announcement and its speakers there and then. The property is downtown, more properly stated than as being in 'Old Louisville,' and is located at the former site for Roman Catholic Chancery Office, 212 E. College Street. The land is close to me, at St. Vincent de Paul shelter for men (1034 South Jackson Street); it is even closer to the Salvation Army GHQ and the Franciscan Free-Luncheon/Shelter. The City predicts that the campsite will be operational in November of this year. Evidently the Louisville planners/executors fothis campsite idea got 'leads' from the cities of Denver Colorado and Santa Rosa California, which venues report negligible crime etc. associated with this move. I ...

I THINK TOPIC AT HAND TIES DIRECTLY INTO YASMINE-JUMAA'S JOB ASSIGNMENT AT WFPL, "RACE AND EQUITY ISSUES"=>  Advocates! I DID read "Making the Second Pandemic. . .," the article from the law journal which I forwarded-gmail to you. For the most-part, I have to agree with what the authoress said to this effect, "The pandemic is frequently described as exposing and exacerbating every gulf, divide, and inequity inAmerican society, almost all of them race and ethnicity-based: between those who zoom at home to those who work in fulfillment centers, nursing homes, and meat-packing plants;[ 49] between those who pick up curbside carryout and those who wait in line at food banks.[ 50] Persons of color, already disproportionately under-employed and under-housed, were positioned to be disproportionately injured.[ 51] Prepandemic, that injury was already acute in the distribution of housing that is "affordable" and "available."[ 52] " Moreov...
