Sea Shepherd injunction violated
December, 2012 the United States Circuit Court of Appeals
issues an injunction restricting Sea Shepherd’s activities in relation to the
Japanese whaling mariners. The
injunction resulted from a request asked of the court by Japan’s Institute of
Cetacean Research, the ICR.
The injunction prohibits Sea Shepherd from entering within
five-hundred yards of the Japanese whaling vessels. After the injunction was issued Sea Shepherd
claimed the injunction was invalid / ineffective because:
1 - A U.S. court has no jurisdiction in the Southern Ocean
2 – Sea Shepherd’s rust bucket garbage scows are not
registered in the USA placing them out of reach of a U.S. court
injunction. The four vessels: Bob Barker, Sam Simon, Steve Irwin, Brigitte
Bardot.
After all of Sea Shepherd’s bravado in reference to the
injunction, two months later their flea-face Scott announced they were
requesting the United States Supreme Court to reverse the injunction.
If a U.S. court, according to Sea Shepherd has no
jurisdiction in the Southern Ocean or over the four rust bucket garbage scows,
then why did Sea Shepherd request the reversal of the injunction?
Valentine Day, February 14, 2013: The United States Supreme Court rejected Sea
Shepherd’s request, the injunction remains in place.
The very next day Sea Shepherd’s rust bucket garbage scow
with Cabin Boy, Peter Helmethead aboard broke the injunction and sailed well
within the 500 yard limit. When Sea
Shepherd actively and purposely violated the injunction, they started to
judicial clock to start ticking.
The Institute of Cetacean Research – ICR can now take that
video to the Secretary of State for the State of Washington, where Sea Shepherd
had their organizational chartered issued, and get it revoked for violating a
court ordered injunction. An injunction
that was upheld by the United States Supreme Court. Once the state chartered is revoked then
their IRS tax-exempt status gets revoked.
