Motion to Dismiss Count Two — grammatical interpretation of otherwise (p.11 of 21)

motion · Aug 12, 2022

Motion to Dismiss Count Two — grammatical interpretation of otherwise (p.11 of 21)

Doc 138 p.11 of 21. Section 3: Argues DOJ/Court mistaken grammatical interpretation. Word "otherwise" was intended to marry 1512(c)(1) and (c)(2) together. Notes Congress used "or" nine times in 18 USC 1512 to demarcate 20 separate methods; "otherwise" alone is inserted between (c)(1) and (c)(2) for unique constructive purpose. Therefore Nichols cannot defend separately against 1512(c)(2).

DC DOC Wardens Administrative Remedy Form (Step 3) by Ryan Nichols 3/14/22 (IGP # 20220316-236, stamped received Mar 16 2022). Appeal of IGP # 22091885-797: argues his last IGP was meant to be a formal grievance but was marked informal by Major Marr. He responded to the informal grievance with a formal. Has put in multiple written requests, electronic requests, and grievances about haircuts. On 3/11/22 members of C2B who were vaccinated received a haircut but he was not on the list; after begging 3 officers and the case manager he was finally allowed to get a haircut. So yes, Major Marr, the IGP process was my correct course of action. Wardens Response: See attached, with signature and date [referencing j6s14-015 Memo]. Coordinator signature 3/17/22.
