Question: Hello, I have been working on addressing a civil liberties violation and civil right violation. The identification of materials is convoluted at best, and the work is daunting: addressing the second circuit court as well as the federal circuit court. I have enclosed a petition to review the procedural defect that violated my civil liberties and civil rights and need further guidance.

Thanks

Answer:

Hello Patrick,

I am sorry to hear about your situation; it does sound daunting.

We at the Community Tool Box recognize the value of legal strategies within the larger "Direct Action" approach to social change (see Chapter 33, Section 16: /en/table-of-contents/advocacy/direct-action/legal-action/main). However, we cannot give specialized legal advice. We limit ourselves to questions about community development, and specifically exclude questions on legal issues. I hope that the additional guidance you need is revealed from some other source.
