10 day reprieve for CHARAS

Charas writes: "Yesterday, August 1st, CHARAS recieved a 10 day stay, pending a court
date scheduled for August 10th. On August 10th, we we'll go back to our
trial judge in Civil Court, Sara Lee Evans and request more time.
(i.e. more time to look for new space / relocate).


We are also going back to the Appellate Division to try and seek a stay
pending appeal of Sara Lee Evans decision to nullify or set aside the
jury verdict. though no one holds out much hope of anything from the
division at this point.


We have gotten a good deal of press and want to continue to mount public
pressure on both Singer and Giuliani to stop the eviction of our
community center. the rally was a great show of unity and support.
thanks to everyone for turning out and organizing it. We need to build
on Saturday's rally. There are a few affinity groups starting to make
plans now."
