US District Court for Maine Issues Order Granting Summary Judgement Against Glenn Baxter, K1MAN:
On January 10, the US District Court for Maine issued a ruling in
the FCC's lawsuit to collect monetary forfeitures issued to Glenn
Baxter, K1MAN, of Belgrade Lakes, Maine. The FCC had assessed
forfeitures in the amount of $21,000 against Baxter

three asserted violations of the Communications Act of 1934 and its
regulations: Failure to respond to an FCC inquiry in violation of Title
47, Section 308 of the US Code
http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode47/usc_sec_47_00000308----000-.html,
willful or malicious interference with other radio transmissions in
violation of Section 97.101(d)

and engaging in communications in which he has a pecuniary interest in
violation of Section 97.113(a)(3)
http://ecfr.gpoaccess.gov/cgi/t/text/text-idx?c=ecfr&sid=47ae9117aa64a743f2bdfb3db7c32da6&rgn=div8&view=text&node=47:5.0.1.1.6.2.157.7&idno=47.
Chief US District Judge John A. Woodcock Jr, in writing for the Court,
agreed with the FCC on the first two counts -- willful or repeated
failure to respond to FCC requests for information, and willful or
malicious interference -- and granted summary judgments to the FCC in
the amount of $3000 and $7000, respectively. On the third claim --
communications in which an amateur station licensee or control operator
has a pecuniary interest -- the Court declined to grant a summary
judgment to the FCC, holding that there were issues of material fact to
be litigated in the Court in later proceedings. Find a link to the

I'm listening to him now (2030UTC 30 JAN) on 14.275 MHz. Haven't heard him in months, thought he was finally gone with the summary judgments. How is he back on the air?

I suspect this loon won't quit until he's locked up.
He's been ignoring the FCC for years, and the one thing that he's accomplished is making them look like total paper tigers.
He's an offensive SOB to deal with and is nothing more than a 70 year old version of the numbskull kid who'll be annoying just to get attention.
