California censorship battle: moving to court

Here is the latest on the battle against censorship of MIM Theory 11 here. The appeal I filed was denied at the directors level, which exhausted my administrative remedies. They determined that the institution is in compliance with departmental policies. As soon as I can obtain a copy of the denial I will send one to MIM for your review. The next step is to file suit. I would like to bring a lawsuit against the director of corrections as opposed to just the institution so that a favorable ruling by the court would effect departmental policy state-wide, not just an order against an individual institution. I'm not sure I can file suit against the director so I am looking in to it. I will keep you informed of all developments.
