Stop the Bledsoe Eviction! October 5, 2009

Join us on Monday 10/5 at noon to rally and deliver signed postcards to Edward Hinsberger, HUD director, demanding that the eviction of the Bledsoe family stop!

Erica Bledsoe, and her 3 nieces and nephews are still facing an incredibly unjust and unfair eviction. There is a critical court hearing/argument in the case on October 8, 2009 at 11 am at the Daley Center. Both sides have filed motions for summary judgment, which means that each side is asking the judge to rule in their favor without a full trial. Each side believes the facts and the law as now known support their argument that the court can rule in their favor without a trial. If the judge rules in Northpoint’s favor then the case is lost and the family will be evicted.

Here is some background info on the family's struggle:

Now is a critical time to step up support for the family.
