The STOP BHOD folks have announced a rally for the occasion of the next court date in their suit to stop the City’s plans for the House of Detention. From their blog:

Our lawsuit against the City has taken a big step forward, and we will have our day in State Supreme Court on January 6th. Stop by our rally to show your support that morning between 9 and 10 AM in Cadman Plaza Park, just in front of the courthouse. We will be joined by elected officials, local neighborhood associations, and urban justice organizations.

If you’d like to attend, please contact Jamie at jamieevansbutler@gmail.com so that we can get you involved and help us organize for this important event.

We will be there and we hope everyone in Cobble Hill will turn out. We can all agree on at least two things: opposing the City’s plan to double the HOD’s capacity and opposing the reopening of the facility without a proper public process.

What: HOD rally
When: January 6, 2009 at 9 a.m.
Where: Cadman Plaza Park
