December 26, 2009: As mentioned previously, an appeal of Judge 
Jarvey's ruling denying Carrie's release has been filed. The initial 
schedule would have taken more than 30 days, and so Carrie Feldman's 
attorneys filed a petition for her release pending the appeal. In 
response, it was merely rescheduled to be wrapped up within 30 days, 
and so Carrie will remain in custody at least until this is resolved. 
We have been informed that everything in her case now is sealed, and 
so do not have written motions to share. However, we will continue to 
update as things happen.

Carrie and Scott DeMuth, both of Minneapolis, were summoned to appear 
before a grand jury in Davenport, Iowa on November 17th. They both 
refused to testify and were taken into custody for contempt of court. 
Scott was charged with conspiracy under the Animal Enterprise 
Terrorism Act (AETA) a couple days later and was subsequently 
released after about two weeks. He is currently working on his 
defense and trial is tentatively set for March. Carrie has been in 
custody since Nov. 17th and is courageously continuing to resist the 
state's repressive use of the grand jury.

Please continue to write her, send her books, and to fundraise for 
her and Scott's defense fund. Info on all of those and more is 
available at davenportgrandjury [dot] wordpress [dot] com.
