The Imperial Women will meet with State Rep. Bill Patmon (D-10) at 6 pm on Monday March 28, 2011 at the Little Africa Village at 68th St. and Superior in Cleveland (A restaurant owned by community activist Michael Nelson that is behind "The Kitchen Cafe").
A Cleveland Democrat, Patmon will entertain a request that he consider proposing legislation in the Ohio House of Representatives sought by the grassroots organization as to judicial reform and an amendment to Ohio foreclosure law as to the appraisals of foreclosed homes set for sheriff sales.
The group seeks a state law that requires that all municipal and common pleas judges in Ohio are assigned and reassigned to civil and criminal cases by random draw, which means that they will be selected randomly by lot rather than the handpicked process sometimes used to manipulate outcomes in cases to the detriment of the community, the Black community in particular.
