Rick Martin, "constitutional lawyer", who is not licensed to practice law in Michigan, is sworn in before Marlena Pavlos-Hackney's arraignment, Friday March, 19, 2021, at the 30th Judicial Circuit Court in Lansing, Mich. Pavlos-Hackney, a western Michigan restaurant owner, was arrested before dawn Friday and hauled to jail, a dramatic turn in a monthslong dispute over her persistent refusal to comply with orders and restrictions tied to the coronavirus. Pavlos-Hackney, 55, will remain in jail until she pays $7,500 and authorities confirm that MarlenaâÄ™s Bistro and Pizzeria in Holland, Mich., is closed, a judge said.
