I received permission to appear as attorney-pro-se to argue my federal appeal. I was assisted by appellate lawyer, Charles Bisanz, Jr. United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit 459 F.2d 697 (1972). This appeal was partially published as, “Resistance as Sacrament” Cross Currents (XXI, #4, Fall 1971). At http://wings.Buffalo.edu/law/BCLC/web/appkroncke.htm a copy of the appellate decision can be downloaded. Also, Appellate Decision.
