Black Seeks to Block Guilty Plea By His Old Company
Financial Post Columnist Barbara Shecter, writes the following in the January 18, 2007 edition of the National Post:
"Quoting from Alice in Wonderland, Conrad Black has asked an Ontario court judge to turn down an attempt by his former company, Ravelston Corp., to plead guilty to criminal fraud in the United States.
One 40-page filing begins with a legal quote about the presumption of innocence, followed by a passage from Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland in which the Red Queen urges: 'Sentence first -- verdict afterwards.' "

I'm just waiting for March when Black's trial starts. If nothing else, it'll be a brief diversion from the asinine hijinks of HarperCreep.
