Lillian Moyer, was ar- _ rested Sept. 9 just off Hwy37 North south of Iskut, where .a group of people had been blocking an«attempt by a _ Mining company to gain ac- _ cess to its property. | The- arrest followed a ” successful application by bc-: Metals to first get a Supreme Court injunction ordering the blockade. to be removed and'then an enforcement or- "der allowing the RCMP to ’ arrest those who did not fol- Jow the injunction. « arrested - Moyer first appeared in- Supreme Court here Oct. 10 and was scheduled to appear again Nov. 20 but now won’t ‘return again until Jan. 29. “T wanted to have more _ time to think about what I’m going to be charged with,” tside the Terrace ¢ court Moyer said last week about the request for the new court appearance date. It was granted without opposition from Crown prosecutors. And‘she says she has not decided whether she will plead guilty Gr not guilty to the contempt accusation. ~ Moyer’s situation is ‘dif- ferent than’that of the vast majority of people who ap- pear in court charged with Criminal Code of Canada and other offences. “ Because Moyer is alleged to have defied a Supreme Court injunction so as to be in contempt of the court, it is the court itself which. has made the accusations against her. Moyer;..a Tahltan. living in Dease Lake, is one of a group of Tahltan people who began to take an increasingly active role two years ago in how their leaders madé re- source use and government decisions. . She was one of a group of people who occupied the of- house Oct. 10 prior to her first appearance in B.C.
