The Ghost Who Keeps Signing by Lawson Akhigbe
The Land Use Act of 1978 vested radical title to land in the state governor. Customary authorities were meant to operate within that framework, not around it. Yet when the formal system becomes a source of frustration rather than facilitation, human ingenuity finds other routes. Enter the late Oba. His name carries historical weight. The palace, however, maintains no functional modern archive capable of systematic verification. Oral history is the dominant method, and most of the original participants are no longer available for cross-examination. The result is a paper trail that is difficult to audit and easy to exploit.https://lawakhigbe.com/2026/08/29/the-ghost-who-keeps-signing-by-lawson-akhigbe/

By late Thursday, the admin informed the court that it wouldn’t proceed with changes at the #KennedyCenter before Oct 8 to allow Judge Cooper more time to consider the case.
…Cooper ruled in May that Trump’s name was added to the building illegally, ordering it to be removed.
#Trump & his allies, however, have refused to let that be the final word.

Mayers responded that the timeline was in accordance with a vote earlier this month by the #Trump aligned board. As he returned to his arguments that renovations at the #KennedyCenter require energy & talent, Cooper interjected again.
“That’s all fine & good,” the judge said. “What does that have to do with what #Congress intended in these statutes? That’s really what’s before me.”

Just seconds after the Trump admin’s lawyer, Brantley Mayers, began making his case at a nearly 2-hour hearing, US District Court Judge Christopher Cooper interrupted to ask why the center needed to begin inscribing Trump’s name on the institution’s facade as soon as Sept 8.
“What’s magic about that date?” Cooper asked….

Uncounted in Life, Unrecorded in Death: Nigeria’s Costly Dignity Deficit By Lawson Akhigbe
here is an old, bitter administrative joke in Nigeria that you are only formally counted twice: never when you arrive, and certainly not when you leave. In between, your existence is largely an unverified rumor negotiated between your creator, your luck, and whatever age declaration affidavit you paid a court clerk two thousand Naira to stamp. -
The Samson Strategy: How the Tinubu Government Pulled the Temple Down on Itself Over PFIPC by Lawson Akhigbe
The Bola Ahmed Tinubu administration appears to have forgotten that rule in its handling of the Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council (PFIPC) controversy. In its determination to destroy the credibility of one man, Prince Adeniyi Matthew Adeyemi, it may have inflicted collateral damage on something far more valuable: the credibility of official government documentation itself. -

Indian #Judiciary has become just a tool supporting the ruling regime."Don't waste our time," CJI SuryaKant on plea against police action on student protesters during #CJP march.

This motion can still fail if three Republicans vote for it, if everyone is voting. Collins is up for re-election in a critical & competitive state.
Senator #ThomTillis, who voted no, is not running for re-election.

The Darkest Files, a serious game about bringing Nazis to justice.
"A game about responsibility, justice and the struggle to come to terms with the past."
"The Second World War is over, but the perpetrators continue to live undisturbed. Under the leadership of Hesse’s Attorney General Fritz Bauer, you set out to solve forgotten crimes: you inspect files, interview witnesses, reconstruct the course of events and bring charges. Yet the judiciary and administration are still filled with former Nazis who will do anything to sabotage the investigations."
"The game is based on real, historically documented cases. The letters, files and statements are fictional, but based on actual events and people." >>

The hearing did not go as prosecutors had planned. Judge Quraishi grew frustrated with the office’s head of appeals, Mark Coyne, who had not formally disclosed that he would appear, & fiercely interrogated a more junior prosecutor about whether the former interim #USattorney, #AlinaHabba, still had some role in operating the office.
Judge Quraishi eventually threw Coyne out.

Judge Ejects Federal Prosecutor From Court & Orders Bosses to Testify
Judge Zahid Quraishi ordered a hearing on who had the authority to lead New Jersey’s top federal law enforcement office.
A federal judge threw a top prosecutor from the NJ #USattorney’s office out of his courtroom during a sentencing hearing this week & demanded that the office’s leadership testify about who had authority over their actions.

US District Judge Matthew Brann said that a trio of #DOJ lawyers who have been leading the office since late last year had been unlawfully serving in their positions. AG #PamBondi appointed them after Brann disqualified #AlinaHabba, #Trump’s previous choice for #USattorney in NJ, in August amid similar questions over the legality of her appointment.

Trio named to replace #AlinaHabba as #USattorney is also serving illegally, judge says
A federal judge upended the leadership of New Jersey’s US attorney’s office again Monday, ruling for the second time in less than a year that the #Trump admin had illegally sought to bypass #Congress & install its own picks to head the prominent prosecutorial outpost.

#JohnBrennan, who led the #CIA during an investigation into Russian #ElectionInterference in 2016, has been historically critical of #Trump on #Russia. Just before his tenure as CIA director ended in 2017, he warned that he didn’t think Trump had “a full appreciation of Russian capabilities, Russia’s intentions & actions that they are undertaking in many parts of the world.”

2) 10 of 12 judges who spoke to NBC News said the Supreme Court should better explain those #rulings, noting terse #decisions leave #lower #court judges w little guidance for how to proceed. But they also have a new and concerning effect, the judges said, validating Trump administration’s criticisms. A short rebuttal from the Supreme Court, they argue, makes it seem like they did shoddy work and are #biased against Trump. #SCOTUS bending #law for #trump against #judiciary https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/supreme-court-trump-cases-federal-judges-criticize-rcna221775

While #PamBondi has yet to actually specify what “improper public comments” #Boasberg made to elicit such an attack, both her chief of staff & the right-wing #FederalistSociety have reported that this huge, inappropriate mistake Boasberg made was simply expressing his (valid!) concern that the #Trump admin was liable to “disregard rulings of federal courts leading to a #ConstitutionalCrisis,” while at a judicial conference.

[which is why they should have the ability to apply nationwide & the power to rule an executive action is illegal. FFS]

Other new #immigration “fees”:
- $250 bond for ALL nonimmigrant #visa applicants
- $550 for “parole” work permits
- $1,500 fee for applying to adjust status to get a #GreenCard before a judge.
The bill would also dramatically increase immigration #enforcement #funding.
$45B for #ICE #detention, assuming $4.5B/year, that would be nearly a 250% annual increase to the current $3.4 detention budget.

The prohibitive fees continue:
2 "fees" are actually penalties:
- $5,000 "fee" for being ordered deported for missing a court hearing.
- $5,000 "fee" for being an inadmissible *alien* apprehended between ports of entry.
This new fee is grotesque:
- $500 for any Special Immigrant Juvenile [#SIJ] Status application — these are abused, abandoned or neglected kids, ya think they have $500?

More prohibitive #immigration“fees” — these are just for trying to defend your status in #court:
- $100 fee for ANY continuance (except in "exceptional” circumstances)
- $1,050 fee for ANY waiver application
- $900 fee for all appeals except bond (currently $100)
- $1,500 fee for non-Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) cancellation (currently $100)

Crazy
At the end of the #House #Judiciary reconciliation bill, there are 2 major restrictions on the judiciary & #litigation:
First, as noted above, it bans judges from enforcing #contempt unless there was an FRCP 65(c) bond (rare in #CivilRights suits). Obviously aimed to stop Judges like #Boasberg & #Xinis, among others.
Second, they would bar money damages in settlements. [see pic]

It also declares—not coincidentally as #Trump is facing dozens of #TROs & injunctions:
