AS WE ALL KNOW, THE LAST COURT RULING WAS THAT AS OF DECEMBER 2011, THE LOUISIANA DEPT. OF WILDLIFE AND FISHERIES WOULD "NO LONGER" BE ISSUING ANY MORE PERMITS TO MICHAEL SANDLIN TO KEEP TONY AT TIGER TRUCK STOP. ALTHOUGH THIS WAS A HUGE VICTORY FOR TONY~HE IS NOT OUT OF THE WOODS YET.
AS WE ARE ALL ALSO AWARE, ON THURSDAY JUNE 9.2011 THE LDWF FILED A "POSTPONEMENT" TO THE HEARING THAT IS SUPPOSED TO TAKE PLACE THIS COMING TUESDAY JUNE 14.2011.
AFTER DOING SO THE ANIMAL LEGAL DEFENSE FUND (ALDF) WENT BACK AND "APPEALED A CONTINUANCE" TO THE COURT OVER THIS.......SINCE THE JUDGE HAS BEEN OUT OF STATE, WE ARE STILL WAITING TO HEAR WHAT HIS DECISION IS ON IF HE WILL GRANT THE POSTPONEMENT, THUS DELAYING THE CHANCE OF THE PERMIT TO BE REVOKED, AND TONY'S CHANCES OF LEAVING TIGER TRUCK STOP BEFORE DECEMBER 2011... OR HE WILL DENY IT, AND GO AHEAD WITH THE HEARING ON JUNE 14TH AS PLANNED.
IT IS OBVIOUS THAT BY THE LDWF FILING A POSTPONEMENT~THEY ARE GOING TO TRY TO DRAG THIS OUT AS LONG AS THEY POSSIBLY CAN. THIS WOULD NOT BE GOOD FOR TONY CONSIDERING HIS HEALTH ISSUES RIGHT NOW!
PLEASE DO NOT THINK THIS BATTLE HAS BEEN WON FOR TONY! DO "NOT" UNDERESTIMATE MR. MICHAEL SANDLIN~ HE IS GOING TO DO EVERYTHING HE POSSIBLY CAN TO KEEP TONY, AND IF IT MEANS HIM GOING TO A HIGHER COURT HE WILL!!!
IF HE DOES THIS, THEN THIS IS GOING TO BE A COURT BATTLE THAT COULD DRAG ON, FOR A LONG TIME! MEANWHILE TONY WILL BE STUCK AT THE TRUCK STOP.
TONY NEEDS US TO KEEP UP THE FIGHT~TONY NEEDS US TO STAY ON TOP OF THINGS~IT IS NOT THE "TIME" TO SIT BACK AND RELAX~NOW MORE THEN EVER WE NEED TO KEEP THE PRESSURE ON THE LOUISIANA WILDLIFE AND FISHERIES~WE NEED TO "ALL" TAKE A FEW MOMENTS OUT OF OUR LIVES AND WRITE TO THEM, AND PLEAD....YES PLEAD THAT THEY REVOKE THE PERMIT NOW, SO TONY CAN BE RELOCATED TO A SANCTUARY AND START RECEIVING QUALITY MEDICAL CARE, THAT HE IS SO DESPERATELY IN NEED OF.

WE ARE AT THE POINT NOW THAT TONY IS SO CLOSE TO GETTING THE FREEDOM WE HAVE ALL WANTED AND FOUGHT HARD FOR. TONY IS SO CLOSE, AND AS CLOSE AS HE IS ~ IT IS NOT GUARANTEED THAT HE LEAVES TRUCK STOP.
UNTIL IT IS POSTED {THAT TODAY TONY HAS LEFT TIGER TRUCK STOP}
UNTIL THAT DAY COMES, WE AS TONY'S FIGHTERS, WE AS TONY'S VOICE HAVE GOT TO KEEP FIGHTING FOR HIM.
PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO TAKE ACTION AS INSTRUCTED IN THIS NOTE. IT IS SIMPLE, IT IS QUICK AND IT COULD MEAN THE DIFFERENCE IN THE OUTCOME OF TONY'S FUTURE.
SINCERE THANKS AND GRATITUDE,
FREE TONY THE TIGER CAMPAIGN FOUNDER AND FRIENDS
