Get The Cluck Out, Judge Orders Mr. Clucky and Girl-Hen

It's official. Mr. Clucky, the Miami Beach rooster, his guinea hen girlfriend Wallflower, and their poultry guardian Mark Buckley lost their appeal in Miami Beach's chicken eviction case. Special Master Joe Kaplan issued a fowl, anti-poultry ruling (see below) against Buckley today, holding that: Mr. Buckley's argument that his rooster and hen constituted an exception to the [City] Code because he considered them to be his "pets", to be without merit. Is it over for these fine feathered friends? Is their legal jig up on the streets of Miami Beach? [Mr. Clucky] Mr. Clucky and Wallflower have been officially ordered to get the cluck out of Buckley's Miami Beach condo. Kaplan ordered that "Mr. Buckley shall be punished" by having to pay a $50.00 fine by Sept. 12, 2009...Courtside
