Air Force Col. Vance Spath has for months now disagreed with the chief defense counsel for Military Commis- Spath ,ions, Ma- ne Brig. Gen. John Baker, over the general's decision and authority that released three lawyers of record from the casein October when they asked to resign over an ethical issue. On Nov. 1, after Baker refused to retum veteran death -penalty defender Rick Kammen and civilian attomeys Rosa Eliades and Mary Spears to the case, the judge sentenced the general to 21 days of con- finement in his quarters for disobeying an order. Friday morning, on the last day of a weeklong hearing in which Ehades and Spears ignored prose- cution subpoenas to appear at court by video feed, Spath assembled defense and prosecution attorneys in the court and offered a 30-minute monologue. He listed his frustrations at having his orders ig- nored, uncertainty over his authority raised by the Marine general's decision - making and inaction by Pentagon officials to help him. At one point he said he was considering retiring from the Air Force, then declared that he needed clear answers on how to proceed. "1 am abating these pro- ceedings indefuntely,"he said twice, at one point adding: "We're done until a superior court tells me to keep going." He then walked off the bench at 10:12 am., declar- ing: "We are in abatement. We are out. Thank you. We're in recess." The man accused of orchestrating al-Qaida's Oct. 12, 2000, bombing of the Navy warship off Ye- men that killed 17 Amer- ican sailors was not in court. Spath ruled, before abating, that Abd al Rahim al Nashiri had voluntarily waived his attendance, even though the Saudi prisoner had asked a prison lawyer about that day's mode of transportation to the war court compound, Camp justice. Cole bombing survivor Joe Pe0y, a retired senior chief petty officer who suffers post -traumatic stress to this day, took to Twitter to declare himself sickened by the devel- opment. On base, another blase survivor, retired Command Master Chief James Puller, and the father of a 19-year- old sailor who was killed in the suicide bombing, were apparently too shaken up Friday to comment. Nashiri's military defense attomey, Navy Lt. Alaric Piette, said Friday that " the best move for the coun- try and far justice is for the government to withdraw the charges." Piette, a former SEAL fumed lawyer, said "send- ing him home to rehabil- itation in Saudi Arabia would be the right thing to do. The guy is nor a threat to anybody." Piette added that as a defense attomey he doubts people will be- lieve him, but "as a defense attomey I make it a point not to say things that aren't true." Baker, the chief defense counsel, says that the war court rules invest in his job the authority to release attorneys of record from ongoing cases "for good cause." That's what he did in October, based on his knowledge of classified information and an inde- pendent legal ethics ex- pert's opinion. An underlying issue was the judge's refusal to let defense lawyers pursue an inquiry into something classified that Kammen discovered during a meet- ing last summer with Nash- iri a site set up for IJSS Cole defense reams to meet. Whatever it was, it led defense attorneys to believe their privileged attorney -diem conversa- tions were monitored, which would violate profes- sional obligations ofconfi- dentialiry. So they quit. Spath ruled there was no intrusion of the meetings, and said they couldn't quit without his permission. "We need somebody to tell us, 'Is that really what that says despite every other court system in America thinking differ- ently?' " Spath said Friday. "We need action from somebody other than me. And we're not getting it." A day earlier, the judge questioned senior career Department of Defense lawyer Paul Koffsky by video fink from the Pentagon about his supervisory role regarding the office of war corm defense lawyers — and Koffsky replied that he had no authority to order sear court defense attorneys to do anything, or to intervene in the resignations. Romney to run for U.S. Senate in Utah AMT LAKE cm' Mitt Romney, who lost to President Baeack Obama in the 2012 presidential elec- tion, is running fora Utah Senate seat, officially launching his political come- back attempt Friday by praising his adopted home state as a model for an acri- monious national govern- ment in Washington. Having been one of the Republican Party's fiercest critics of President Donald Trump, Romney didn't mention the administration or Trump huruelf in a cam- paign announcement posted online. The closest allusion to Tromp was Romney noting that Utah "welcomes legal immigrants from around the world." while "Washington sends im- migrants a message of ex- clusion." Romney, 70, will be the heavy favorite for the Senate seat being opened by Sen. Orrin Hatch's retirement. Hatch was among the first Republicans to pitch Rom- ney as his potential succes- so"Utah has a lot to teach the politicians in Washing- ton," Romney said in his announcement, noting that "on Utah's Capitol Hill, people near one another with respect." —ASSOCIATED PRESS PUBLIC NOTICE OMNI REDEVELOPMENT DISTRICT COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY Pursuant to Section 163.346, Florida Statutes, as amended, the Omni Redevelopment District Community Redevelopment Agency (the "Agency") hereby gives notice that it proposes to issue not to exceed $10,000,000 of its Tax Increment Revenue Note, Series 2081A (the "Note") payable from tax increment revenues received by the Agency, on or about March 5, 2018.

Spath said repeatedly over two days that the military commission's prom was at risk of being infected by defense defections if nobody stepped M.

He said he debated "for hors" whether to dismiss the case, then chose not to do it be- cause it would be "reward- ing the defense for their clear misbehavior and mis- conduct." He then talked at length about when people in the nulitary can lawfully defy orders and said it did not apply to his decision -making in the Nashiri case.
