Ivy Walker had a pre-trial conference on 2009-08-20 at 10:00 at Hillsborough Superior Court, for a charge of violating of RSA 261:178, “Suspension of Registration of Vehicle,” after a motor vehicle stop on 2008-10-10. This case was previously tried in Manchester District Court, where she was found guilty and requested a de novo trial at Superior Court.

Nothing particularly interesting happened today; being a pre-trial conference, it was merely to get all the players on the same page with respect to witnesses, trial length, and so on. I didn’t attempt to video, and merely went along to observe and report.

The trial date is yet to be determined.

Ivy Walker’s arraignment for yesterday’s arrest was held on 2009-09-05 at 09:00 in Laconia District Court. Bill Walker was not allowed to appear as counsel for her. She was denied bail; after the arraignment she was returned to the Belknap County Jail pending extradition to Rhode Island. See Jailed Activist Info for more information about her incarceration.

Later in the day, her vehicle, still in impound, was searched; shortly thereafter, the Bristol and State Police raided the restaurant and seized her laptop and printer.

The extradition hearing and trial for her New Hampshire charges is currently scheduled for 2009-07-06. For her Rhode Island charges, a pre-trial conference is scheduled for 2009-07-19 in Rhode Island.

Ivy Walker was stopped at 18:35 on 2009-06-04 at a speed trap on Route 104 in New Hampton, and arrested when it was discovered that she had a warrant out in Rhode Island. Her pistol and two allegedly fake inspection stickers were seized from the truck, which was impounded.

She was held overnight at the Belknap County Jail, and not allowed to communicate with anyone on the outside world. The arraignment was held on 2009-06-05 in Laconia District Court.
