Former Arizona Supreme Court Chief Justice Stanley G. Feldman will be part of the legal team representing one of two immigrant aid volunteers arrested last summer in connection with the transporting of an illegal alien.

Feldman, who lives in Tucson and retired from the state's high court in 2002, will join Tucson attorney William G. Walker in representing 23-year-old Shanti A. Sellz, who along with 24-year-old Daniel M. Strauss has been accused of breaking federal immigration law.

The two face charges that they knowingly and intentionally conspired to transport illegal entrants while volunteering for the local faith-based No More Deaths movement. During the summer months, the group provides food, water and medical aid to people entering the United States illegally on foot.

The pair say they were taking three entrants to get emergency medical care when they were arrested July 9 en route from the Arivaca area to Tucson. Prosecutors say the illegal entrants were not seriously ill.

Feldman and Walker, along with Tucson attorney Jeff Rogers, who is representing Strauss, are all working on the case for free. No trial date has been set. U.S. District Judge Raner Collins is expected to preside over the trial.

Prosecutor Irene Feldman, who is no relation to Stanley Feldman, says Walker should not be allowed to represent Sellz, since he'd been acting as a legal adviser to No More Deaths before the arrest and is a potential witness for both sides. U.S. Magistrate Judge Bernardo P. Velasco, who heard arguments on Irene Feldman's motion Monday, will decide whether Walker can continue to represent Sellz. A decision is expected within the next few weeks.

Stanley Feldman was one of the three Tucson lawyers who in 1968 formed the firm of Miller, Pitt & Feldman. He served for 21 years on the Arizona Supreme Court, including a five-year term as chief justice from 1992 through 1996. In 2003 Feldman rejoined the firm he helped found.
