SPA to appeal court sanctions The ASUO constitutional committee agreed Thursday to hear an appeal by the Students For a Progressive Agenda about the ASUO elections court sanctions levied against the coalition. The constitutional committee also ruled that the elections court incorrectly named the plaintiff in its Tuesday sanctions decision. The elections court ruled Tuesday that IFC members Jeff Nudelman, Dianne Ritterband-Ma son, Mary Alice Holmes and EMU Board member Mary Hotchkiss be removed from office. The court based the sanctions on Houston's charge that the SPA — in the person of presidential candidate Kevin Kouns — had threatened, harrassed and attempted to intimidate him. The court, in deciding that all SPA coalition candidates and elected officials are ineligible to hold office, incorrectly named the ASUO as the plaintiff against the SPA, said Karsten Rasmus sen, who heads the committee The committee ruled that Jeffrey Houston, the former ASUO presidential candidate who filed the three charges addressed by the court, should be the respondent in the appeal before the con stitutional committee. Houston will be given the opportunity to decide if he wants to file a respondence brief and/or argue the case, Rasmussen said. If Hous ton declines, the ASUO will be assigned the responsibility, he said. Houston could not be reached for comment. Testifying before the committee, Alan Con treras, an ASUO vice president and the ASUO representative, said Houston, not the ASUO, personally witnessed the campaign violations. A witness files an election complaint, he said. ‘‘We (ASUO) did not see these violations," Contreras said. In its decision, the court repeatedly referred to Houston, not the ASUO, but the court incor rectly named the ASUO as plaintiff, he added. The constitutional committee will hear oral arguments from both sides Tuesday at 7:30 p.m., Rasmussen said. Found: one stolen bike, but no owner If you haven’t seen your bike recently, doublecheck your usual parking spot The Eugene police have recovered a stolen bike that no one has claimed yet The police have picked up three bikes stolen from the University area. Two of the owners were from the residence halls, but no one has stepped forward to claim the third bike Sgt Rick Allison, of the Eugene Police Department, says the bike was located in the area around 15th and Agate streets and was stolen around May 15 or 16 The bike does not have a University registration tag, which campus security requires. The bike is a Schwinn Subur ban boy's five speed, Allison says. He notes that the bike was "covered with cobwebs" so it may not have been ridden recently. He says the owner should know the combination of the padlock found with the bike. For more information, contact De tective Jim Guse at the Eugene Police Department at 687-5174.
