Mitigation of Damages

[Robert O brien]

Getting some order in my house (my brain?), I tried to sort out the mess in my home office and found a significant JW piece,an autobiography by the woman as a child was expelled from the school leading to West Virginia Board of Education v. Barnett.  In the past, I offered a copy of Gathie Edmonds'  "The Flag Salute Case"; now I have found  the copy of the eight-page story given me by Gathie when I interterviewed her in her house. 

If  you would like a copy of Gathie (Barnette) Edmonds' story,  ask me a for a copy. 

By the way, my translation with my introduction of The Stasi Report is available; compare Stasi's recommendations with Obama's speech in Egypt (and Sarkozy's objection regarding the burqa involving France's law).

  From time to time we have discussed on the list cases of Jehovah's Witnesses who are injured by a tortfeasor, who refuse a blood transfusion, and whose injury is aggravated or whose cure takes longer as a result.  The cases go both ways.  I am not trying to start that discussion up again, but I have a related factual question.

  Has anyone ever seen a similar case involving a Christian Scientist?  I haven't done any serious looking, but I don't recall one.  That seems a little odd, given that we seem to have a Jehovah's Witness case every few years.
