This Week:

Aug. 30:  Moderator Lee, Last week a court in David convicted Ron Mcgrew a retired US policeman of murder. His defense was self defense, yet he was convicted by a 7-0 jury decision. We will not be discussing this case, we do not have the facts. Julio Espinosa, a local attorney and I will discuss Self Defense under the laws of Panama. The goal of this discussion will be to educate and advise you on your rights so further tragedies can be avoided. If you have a weapon in your home or just want to understand the law do not miss this meeting. The meeting will be bilingual so please invite Spanish speakers also.

Coming soon

Sept. 6:  Moderator Dianne, Attorney Rainelda Mata-Kelly will be our speaker. I have met with Rainelda and discussed her presentation. It might run long. I have asked her to address, immigration law, property law, the tourist visa and issues people have had with driving after 90 days in country. Those who have heard Rainelda in the past know she is very competent and she help me clear the fog around some other legal claims by a local attorney.
