Judge Day to appear on Huckabee – Dec 1st & 2nd

As a strong supporter of Judge Day’s fight for the liberty of conscience, Governor Mike Huckabee has invited Judge Day to bring Huckabee viewers up to date.  Judge Day appeared this past April on Huckabee a week before his trial was postponed and moved to Multnomah County. On October 23rd, the State of Oregon was forced to dismiss all charges against Judge Day when their case collapsed because they did not subpoena their only witness.

Meanwhile, the Oregon State Bar had previously opened two disciplinary cases against Judge Day.  Since the dramatic collapse of the Oregon Department of Justice’s case against him, the Oregon State Bar has dropped one of its disciplinary cases.  It seems they were premature in expecting Judge Day to be found guilty of some crime.

To bring this into context, the first case was based upon the conclusion by the Oregon Supreme Court that he had been less than forthright with the commission in his testimony (they based this on only half of the evidence and refused to let Judge Day present the remainder of the factual evidence).  The second case was due to the criminal charges and was in anticipation of a guilty verdict or if he struck a plea deal.  Since all the criminal charges were dismissed, there was no basis for the second Oregon State Bar complaint.

In an attempt to discipline Judge Day, the Oregon State Bar is still pursuing the first case.  A response to the state bar is due in early December. Judge Day has publicly stated that he will fight the disciplinary charges and push this matter to a hearing.  “Due process demands that they give me my day in court,” says Judge Day.  “I want a full and fair opportunity to present the evidence that was excluded during the 2015 commission hearing.”  Currently, no date has been set for a hearing before the Oregon State Bar.

We here at DefendJudgeDay.com are looking forward to hearing more from Judge Day on Huckabee this Saturday/Sunday, December 1st & 2nd.  Huckabee airs on TBN (DirecTV  Channel 372 – Dish Channel 260 – Comcast Xfinity 20) at 5pm PST both Saturday and Sunday evening.

The Oregon Government Ethics Commission approved Judge Vance Day's application for a Legal Expense Trust Fund on September 3, 2015. This website is designed to inform people and provide a method to contribute to this Legal Expense Trust Fund. Judge Day does not receive any public funds or assistance to defend himself against the allegations filed by the Oregon Commission on Judicial Fitness and Disability; a defense which will likely cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. The Oregon Commission on Judicial Fitness and Disability uses tax payer funds and the power of government process to prosecute judges for ethics violations. Oregon judges must rely on their own resources or the help of friends and supporters to mount a defense. We, the supporters and friends of Judge Vance Day, respectfully ask you to financially support and defend a judge's rights to religious and political speech under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. If we don't defend our republic - we are doomed to lose it.
