No more typewriters at the prisons

I've received word from several clients, who are housed at different prisons, that the Nevada Department of Corrections has announced that typewriters will no longer be permitted at the prisons. Apparently some kind of rod was used as a shank so all typewriters will now be banned. Best of luck to the courts, prosecutors and others who will now be forced to read handwritten proper person pleadings.

And good luck to the inmates' families who paid for those typewriters only to have them confiscated, some within weeks of purchase.
