You might be pro se, but you are romantically involved with a walking law library in Joe Pilchesky, right?  Must be nice to get the cow at such great prices.  More power to you. Women need all the help they can get to escape their own lawyers.  The world needs more Joes to go around.  Where do I find one?


 DrT, looks like you haven't been feeding someone's pride well enough recently, please administer another dose...

Sorry that didn't post correctly. I'll take down in a sec.

For some reason I can't edit the abstract. Would someone just delete it for me please?

The Order is still true to its founding principles of charity, unity and fraternity.

The Knights was formed to render financial aid to members and their families. Mutual aid and assistance are offered to sick, disabled and needy members and their families. Social and intellectual fellowship is promoted among members and their families through educational, charitable, religious, social welfare, war relief and public relief works.

The history of the Order shows how the foresight of Father Michael J. McGivney, whose cause for sainthood is being investigated by the Vatican, brought about what has become the world's foremost Catholic fraternal benefit society. The Order has helped families obtain economic security and stability through its life insurance, annuity and long-term care programs, and has contributed time and energy worldwide to service in communities.

The Knights of Columbus has grown from several members in one council to more than 14,000 councils and 1.8 million members throughout the United States, Canada, the Philippines, Mexico, Poland, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Panama, the Bahamas, the Virgin Islands, Cuba, Guatemala, Guam and Saipan.

Dr. T --

Put this topic together with the American Bar Association topic.  Who "the Bar" is counts.

See last post about the background wheeling & dealing of that attorney who committed suicide in the courtroom (who happened to have been raised Mormon, but left the folds -- unbelievable chicanery, resulting in this. It was private investment group who owned the home he burnt to the ground.)  Maybe he was trying to purge his consciences for having left the faith?   I also note how teaming up with "WE LOVE KIDS" nonprofits groups also helps the bottom line.  Sometimes.

Attorneys are officers of the Court.  So, who is the Court, why are we showing up there, and is the court legal. Not effective -- is it legitimate, and legal.  Does it have a right to rob us of our basic life substances?

 

How'd you find this?  Right on topic. Comments below:

Putting the justices on trial
 
Last week seven Justices of the Virginia Supreme Court were put on trial in their own court by attorney Linda Kennedy who was disbarred last year.
  • THE SITUATION DOESN'T SOUND LIKE A TRIAL, BUT AN APPEAL OF THE DISBARMENT.

The justices had the spotlight turned around on them when Ms. Kennedy addressed them from the podium. Ms. Kennedy was there to appeal her disbarment for violating the unwritten First Commandment of Virginia Legal Ethics: Thou Shalt Not embarrass the Virginia Bar by blowing the whistle on white-collar crimes they commit against an unwitting Virginia public.

 . . . .[saving space -- comment is right below here]. . .

The justices in this case will pronounce a verdict on themselves. If they order a full investigation and a new trial of Ms. Kennedy's disbarment, then the justices will have pronounced their innocence. Otherwise, Regent ought to reconsider whom they allow to preach to our youth, and maybe it ought to be Linda Kennedy.

ED TRUNCELLITO

Mr. Truncellito is an attorney and director of development for Defending Holy Matrimony.


 


THIS IS A PR PIECE FOR Ms. KENNEDY, who probably also is associated with the author.  The circumstances under which she was disbarred are not mentioned -- not enough facts for  a neutral reader to judge; one would have to go research it -- even though points well taken about the records issue -- and good it's brought up -- but too bad in such a religious way.

Religious groups are among the most dishonest my research on the grants shows this.  Plus they historically coverup, rather than report women & child abuse, and atrocities towards women, children, and others, whether Christian or other religion -- which should be common knowledge by now, but doesn't seem to change most social behaviors... 

Anyone else cover this?.  In a quick read, I see:

  • MEDIA:  The Washington Times -- a Unification Church organ, and widely known to be this, and backed by it.  
  • REGENTS UNIVERSITY:  Religious.
  • Author probably also a Moonie -- an ATTORNEY and Director of Development for "Defending Holy Matrimony"?  Nonprofit? In what state -- or in DC?

Defending Holy Matrimony is Catholic, cites "Michelle Gauthier" as founder 

Also found HERE -- be afraid.  Be VERy afraid (or at least warned....): - what lengths will these people go to "Defend our Father's House"? -- and notice the weird logo -- a large dove with its beak on a traditional house with roof (hardly historical!) and a very small cross inside -- Knights of Columbus, letters addressed "your eminence" etc.!  From a 2008 letter addressed TO: 

 

H.E. Cardinal George of Chicago -- President of the Bishops' Conference, and it begins:

 

October 26, 2008  [NOTE -- days before a Presidential Election...]

Your Eminence,  [How "American"!]

 

Please let me introduce you to Defending Our Fathers House, a national Catholic vision and leadership organization [501(c)3 or PAC?] whose mission is to establish the legal and institutional integrity of marriage and family in order to provide safeguards for married couples, families and children, and for our society overall. . . .

 

We have come together in faith and mutual concern: Our Nation, the United States of America, is collapsing!


What sets Defending Our Fathers House apart from other groups is that our service to the Kingdom of God follows a particular model of leadership that Christ provided as a 12 year old boy and as a 33 year old man defending His Fathers House with specific actions in the Temple. Our team** draws from this model to address concerns that others avoid.

  • 12 yr old boy -- asking the leaders questions and answering them.  33 yr old man (allegedly) -- over-turning the tables, driving the money-changers, sheep, doves, etc.  -- Note:  a scourge (whip) was involved.  No record that He used it on people -- but there IS a record of religious leaders using scourges on people, (including Jesus, Paul,) and plenty of others.

At this time, we are witnessing the most expensive social-issue election in the history of the country in which the forces supporting a redefinition of marriage have invested millions of dollars in mammon to defeat Californias Proposition 8. Marriage is facing the firing squad and soon it will be too late.

 

The execution began in 1969, when California wiped out over one hundred years of legal protections encoded in the law, in particular, adultery, as a ground for divorce.

 


  • It gets 'better' -- they are also opposed to the betrayal of the ABA  -- not for its money habits, but for betraying them on the marriage (& same-sex) issues -- somehow this is tied into the Sermon on the Mount... hypocritical Catholic attorneys!! (What should be done to them??)


In the Sermon on the Mount, Our Lord said, And everyone who listens to these words of mine but does not act on them will be like a fool who built his house on sand. The fool is our own American Bar Association (ABA) that undermined the Institution of Marriage in such a fundamental way that it opened the door to what is happening now. The time has come to address this other part of marriage defense, beginning with calling to account the Catholic attorneys who earn a living desttroying families by day and on Sundays show up to offer the sign of Peace and to receive Holy Communion.


  • Then they head off to quote Lincoln, reference Connecticut Justices (??  CT recently endorsed same-sex marriage....), and when everyone's all riled up and the addressee is all buttered up, get down to the purpose of the letter -- we need MONEY! Can we talk?:

 

We are preparing a formal grant proposal for our plan to defend Catholic marriage as well as all marriage in America.##  As we accomplish this task, with guidance from our Shepherds and the Magisterium, we will transform the face of the earth.  America## will light the way for all nations in safeguarding marriage, family and the parent-child relationship.

 

  •  ## noticeably absent:  "The United States of" -- which might remind someone of, er, that Constitution?  But as it's addressed to someone with a higher allegiance to a foreign country (the Vatican) I suppose it's normaly to think in global terms -- the Continents (apparently North & South are meant) -- and the face of the earth.
  • There's a list of SHEPHEREDS and the MAGISTERIUM on there.  I do believe this is from another century and DEFINITELy another legal system.  Bad, bad, bad Bill of Rights and all those Amendments (especially the first!)

 

We request an opportunity to meet with you as soon as possible to address this most-urgent matter and to share with you all that we envision.

 

Our Holy Father** Pope Benedict XVI came to America in April of 2008 to light the torch of Hope, a hope he described so eloquently in his first encyclical on Love, and reinforced in his second encyclical on Hope. He spoke of fidelity. The power of the Holy Spirit is now working through our previous beloved Holy Father John Paul the Great, and our current Holy Father Benedict XVI, the spiritual rock placed in our midst by our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

Your Eminence, on behalf of your servants who are part of Defending Our Fathers House, I await word on how we may begin.

 **Jesus to his disciples  "Call no man father..." Matthew 23:9

biggrin

call-no-man-father.jpg

 Catholic Education Resource Center explains (just trying to be equitable here, I didn't read either...):

article_head.gif

Call No Man Father: Understanding Matthew 23:9 PHILIP GRAY Why do Catholics call priests father, when Jesus says call no man your father on earth (Mt. 23:9)?

 BUT PERSONALLY -- THIS 2008 LETTER FROM "DEFENDING OUR FATHER'S HOUSE" is over the top....!

And the attorney writing the Washington Times article above belongs to one of its signatories -- "Defending Holy Matrimony." . . .

So if I hire an attorney, -- or my kid gets a GAL attorney -- is it going to be one these people consider heretics and betrayers of the faith -- like John F. Kennedy was for actually considering his Presidential duty to uphold the Constitution when it ran counter to his faith, as opposed to G.W. Bush, who has been characterized as a much better Catholic?       Or will it be a same-sex advocate progressive liberal attorney for my child?  Or will the attorney be a misogynist or a feminist?  -- and how is that going to affect JUSTice?  These are among the reasons I sometimes think the best attorney (on MY case at least) is NO attorney -- attorneys are already compromised by the fact that if they go too much against the grain, they could lose everything, like the right to practice law....


he or she steps afoul of [his/her] own Bar [guess that got kinda awkward: he or she] can be "disbarred."  Examples have been made of overly ethical attorneys (Richard Fine, Doris Sassower) -- and not of the less than ethical.  Fine and Sassower were confronting serious ethical and criminal wheelings and dealings surrounding judges:  One in Los Angeles, the other in New York.  The material is worth reading -- and the situation seems real.  [Center for Judicial Accountablity for Sassower stuff].   

The BAR is a tradition from England, i.e., "Barrister," (title of nobility?) --why are lawyers called John Doe, ESQUIRE?  What's a "squire."  The word "County" is derived from the word "count" (Count & Countess, etc.)  The Feudal System!

I want to mention that ever since my cursor hit on the ABA (I think was where I first saw the notice) article on Michael Marin -- it's been going haywire, i.e., the laptop is hacked or has a virus.  Paragraphs or fragments of them go missing without my hands on the keyboard.  This is not an unfamiliar situation (and happened during blogging certain sites on some of the HHS funding, or -- particularly -- a high-profile nonprofit (which is doing business with the court and ISN't filing with the state attorney general's site, i.e., keeping up with the Franchise Tax Board.

Interesting article -- can you find out anything else about it?  Are you getting that family court corruption is only the tip of an iceberg, and that without honest ECONOMIC accounting (which interests attorneys are overall there to protect), not much of a foundation for law exists.  Government and Economics are pretty much the same thing.  And I'm pretty sure that some in the British Empire want the Colonies back.... one way or another.  (see Tavistock:  Cummings/Balint in the signature block)

Morocco -- Amina Filali, rape victim (age 15) forced to marry her rapist, severe beatings and either committed suicide (after her mother told her to just deal with it), and/or was murdered.  This is the "honorable" institution of marriage" which needs defending worldwide?  WHY????

In many Arab-majority countries, the loss of a girls virginity outside of marriageeven in cases of rape can be seen as a stain of honor on the family and the girl. The familys honor can often be restored if she marries her rapist.

Filalis father said in an interview with online Moroccan newspaper goud.ma that the court officials themselves had suggested the marriage option after Aminas family reported the rape. Amina is believed to have been first accosted on the street and raped when she was 15.

Morocco World News:  Not Suicide, but Murder by her In-Laws (who didn't want to support her) By Loubna Flah / Morocco World News /Casablanca, March 23, 2012:

According to the daily al Massae, Amina Filialis father declared that his daughter did not commit suicide, but was murdered by her in-laws. He made this bold statement during a conference organized by the civil association Touch Not My Child yesterday In Rabat.

Zahra Moualim the victims mother gave a live portrayal of her daughters ordeal. In fact, the rapist husband refused to support his underage wife. Instead, the mother had to cater for her daughters needs in terms of food and clothing. Concerned with her familys honor, the mother kept these facts in total secrecy, especially from Aminas father.

 

Spoiler
 


They were reaching out to others of the same faith who worshipped "our father."  Here's a nice example of the use of marriage in another faith:  found in association with the Michael Marin (attorney/Burning Man) article.

Putting the justices on trial
 
Last week seven Justices of the Virginia Supreme Court were put on trial in their own court by attorney Linda Kennedy who was disbarred last year.

The justices had the spotlight turned around on them when Ms. Kennedy addressed them from the podium. Ms. Kennedy was there to appeal her disbarment for violating the unwritten First Commandment of Virginia Legal Ethics: Thou Shalt Not embarrass the Virginia Bar by blowing the whistle on white-collar crimes they commit against an unwitting Virginia public.

Ms. Kennedy began by throwing Chief Justice Leroy Rountree Hassell Sr. off guard. She complimented him, saying she heard him preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ at Regent University. Maybe he momentarily forgot that a similar tactic was used by the Apostle Paul to subdue King Agrippa.

The justice straightened up and beamed with pride as he was reminded of the distinction that Regent bestowed upon him in the eyes of his black community by honoring him as a professor of law and theology.

Next Ms. Kennedy quoted a second one of the justices, a woman, who was published as stating that legal process must always be above

 --------------------------------------------

On the Internet, it is now an open secret that court records are being falsified routinely in cases all over the state and all over the country while the high courts hear it with a deaf ear.

--------------------------------------------

suspicion. Ms. Kennedy thanked her for the statement but added that the message apparently has not yet reached the Virginia Bar.

Ms. Kennedy silenced a third justice by interrupting his question and asking that the justices not ask her any more questions. She said they had a copy of her written brief, and she wanted to use her entire 15 minutes to explain to them in person how their legal system has become disgracefully corrupt.

And if that did not convince them, then nothing ever would.

Nonetheless, a moment later a fourth justice, another woman, interrupted to ask if she understood correctly that Ms. Kennedy did not want to answer their questions, perhaps implying that Ms. Kennedy had something to hide. But Ms. Kennedy rebuked her. Ms. Kennedy said it could not have been made any plainer: "No questions." The justice pushed herself back in her chair showing consternation, but she had nothing more to say.

These justices are the senior officers overseeing the Virginia Bar whose lawyers are trying to cover up the fact that Ms. Kennedy caught them red-handed falsifying the very court record that these justices had sitting right there under their noses on the bench. The legal process that brought them the case record was not merely suspicious  it was blatantly fraudulent.

Ms. Kennedy fished through trash cans and found court transcripts with handwritten notes clearly showing falsifications proposed by the Bar Prosecutor and approved by the trial judge to cover up perjury by the lawyer who heads the Virginia Bar's Ethics Department.

Ms. Kennedy has audiotapes that prove what the Ethics leader really said, in his own recorded voice. But the trial court record is cut out at the part where the trial judge refused to allow those audiotapes to be played. Ironically, the trial judge's comments were falsified in the record, claiming he said he would have exonerated Ms. Kennedy if only she could have proved what the audiotapes in fact do prove.

Talk about smoking guns. But this is just one of the more glaring cases. On the Internet, it is now an open secret that court records are being falsified routinely in cases all over the state and all over the country while the high courts hear it with a deaf ear. Zed McLarnon, a forensic audiovisual expert, has documented that transcripts in Massachusetts courts are altered with the knowledge of court personnel. In Indiana, Rebecca Rohrs has conclusively documented literally thousands of alterations in hearing transcripts in a child custody case.

"This is criminal misconduct," attorney Eugene Wrona says of similar practices in Pennsylvania, "and these people belong in jail."

Further, it is notorious among lawyers that lawyer whistleblowers can all expect to share Ms. Kennedy's fate. Law students are misled like the public, being told in law school that law is an honorable profession. Not until they begin practicing do they discover how money really changes hands. Only after they have invested years in their law school education are they taught that they must maintain an unwritten code of secrecy. Then they shut up  or they are disbarred.

The justices in this case will pronounce a verdict on themselves. If they order a full investigation and a new trial of Ms. Kennedy's disbarment, then the justices will have pronounced their innocence. Otherwise, Regent ought to reconsider whom they allow to preach to our youth, and maybe it ought to be Linda Kennedy.

Con'td from the UBaltimore CFCC BLUEprint for a UFC:   Commentary indented:

The Unified Family Court is a single court system with comprehensive subject-matter jurisdiction over all cases involving children and families.

 Yup, that's what they want, so it's described as if in present tense (AFCC does this:  "parenting coordination IS....." before it was mandatory in some states, etc. Makes it sound more legitimate)

In other words, centralized power is wanted -- hardly in accord with our Constitutional concepts -- but family courts already degraded that concept to start with by adding so much mental health stuff to set up the USA Gulag Archipelago and undermine due process and the concept of INDIVIDUAL standing of a person under the law. ("pSilent weapons for pSilent wars").  So this is what happens when you let a set of megalomaniac problemsolvers into positions of power. They cut you out of the decision-making process.

The court coordinates efforts to produce resolutions tailored to an individual family's legal, personal, emotional, and social needsUFCs are a response to clear and devastating problems.

(such as feminism? -- and lack of submission to personal physical assault, rape, etc. including of one's offspring -- and divorcing their men.... not attending church regularly. .. .  copying men in their sexual habits, including with things like adultery, and having children by more than one partner (men never do this, typically, right? -- see US Congress).

Lawyers have LONG given us examples of their ability (not) to handle life's tough problems -- like being poor, or ethical -- or, like a videotape of them being caught in a crime -- or having to suddenly switch from HAS to DOESN'T HAVE when "HAS" was a seven-figure # ($X,000,000 for the mathematically challenged).  They tend (especially males) to do this in a very in a mature manner, sometimes including plans to burn houses, down, or suicide.  Then again, non-attorney men also do that at times...

This one was in Arizona:  (posted the other day).  No I wasn't hunting for it-- (seeURL -- it's in the ABAjournal).  Note the age:

Lawyer Took Cyanide After Arson Verdict, Then Collapsed and Died, Medical Examiner Says

Posted Jul 27, 2012 3:21 PM CDT
By Martha Neil

A 53-year-old lawyer whose finances apparently took a nosedive in recent years committed suicide in an Arizona court last month by swallowing a cyanide pill, immediately after a Maricopa County jury convicted him of burning down his own upscale home in the Phoenix area.(photos are from a dailymall.UK article, click imagesfor article:

Last resort: After being found guilty of burning down his own home and facing years in jail, Michael Marin appeared to swallow a substance in the Arizona courtroomDestruction: Marin had tried to auction off his mansion in Arizona but had no bidders


Michael James Marin collapsed within minutes after a video of his June 28 arson conviction shows him seemingly putting something in his mouth and then swallowing. Medical examiner Kevin Horn announced Friday that his death was a suicide, reports Reuters.

At trial, prosecutors said Marin had $50 in his bank account at the time of the fire, compared to $900,000 a year earlier, and substantial debts, according to the Associated Press and a 2009 Phoenix New Times article.

Marin was a Yale University law graduate and the New Times profile says he had described working in the 1980s and 1990s in Asia for Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch and Salomon Brothers.

In more recent years, however, it is unclear from the article how Marin brought in the bucks to support a lifestyle that included the purchase of the multimillion-dollar home and Pablo Picasso etchings, for which he said he paid an amount in seven figures.

His family got a nice email about the paperwork -- he's a father of four and a grandfather.... (Lawyers need to learn how to lose more gracefully . . . in this case, he was facing Sheriff Arpaio's hospitality 16 yrs, now that would be intimidating...)


He was an ex-Wall Street trader who enjoyed collecting art including Picasso sketches and described himself as a 'careful thrill seeker' to the Phoenix New Times after scaling Mount Everest and trips into the jungles of south-east Asian.

He did this in front of his girlfriend in court (convulsions, etc.) (Susie Spicer which answers the question about, was he married).......


Lawyers are a wonderfully resourceful and strategically planning sort, whether those plans go south or north, for sure.

For sure, if I had social and emotional needs, I would call up a lawyer and seek one of the lawyer's associates to help me with them.  Being a mother (and family court vet), I have "no idea" how to handle personal, social, or emotional needs, poverty, or losing in court (sure, right) or difficult personalities.  Somebody PLEASE tell a Law School in Maryland to structure a one-size-fits-all sea-change to the legal system so we don't have personal, social, or emotional needs, or poverty. I'm sure they can do it.

Unified Family Courts in Depth (website at UBaltimore School of Law)

...re:  "The court coordinates efforts to produce resolutions tailored to an individual family'slegal, personal, emotional, and social needsUFCs are a response to clear and devastating problems."

It's about to tell us what the problems are:  I'm listening!!

For many lawyers and judges working in family law, it became apparent years ago that the justice system was not working as well as it could or should for the parties and for society as a whole.

OK, the problem was "THE JUSTICE SYSTEM WAS NOT WORKING AS WELL AS IT COULD..."

So is this a Good Cop/Bad Cop argument?   Poor families, the justice department (which is historically about judging matters under the law) -- and needs to be retooled for more centralized jurisdiction -- and your personal affairs -- and your emotional needs -- and your social needs -- and expanded to cover ALL things families and children have to deal with ...

OK, I"m still listening... because if something is apparent to lawyers and judges it must be important....

The family justice process was expensive, inefficient, and often traumatic,

Actually to me it was the process of gradually realizing that protection ended at the front door of the family courthouse, among other things...and justice was not available inside. 

I'm sitting here trying to figure out why, suddenly, lawyers should care? ???? They make a living from its expenses, particularly if it's NOT efficient . . . . . .   I'm also thinking how the retooled version is not traumatic (because of its efficiency it has dispensed with an interest in the facts of most cases)

and it did not make the most effective use of community resources that could help families undergoing difficult transitions. This growing recognition of a fractured family justice system created urgency for law reform.  

"Families in Transition" is code for Judith Wallersteins' NCalifornia Center for Families in Transition....The theme is everywhere now (One listed in Maricopa County Courthouse, too) (NH:   is actually about homelessness)-- divorce is a transition, so we need more Kids turns, and KidFirsts, and Children in the Middle classes.  The Tulsa County Courthouse now has one (/) KENtUCKY state court has one (a CLASS)  This psychologist from Skokie, IL has one (although AFCC isn't mentioned, related associations are -- collaborative law, etc.Site logo(http://www.familiesintransition.info/page2/page2.html)  (interesting logo)... 

 

Spoiler

...Interesting, a fatherless child born before women got the vote, between the wars as it were, and in an entirely different era is somehow empowered to define family for the rest of us?  i'm not in favor of not telling children what's up with family -- but it seems this crowd are so often making up for their own pasts -- on the generations of new people who must pay for their perceived losses.....

After her father died, Ms. Wallerstein moved with her mother and younger brother to what was then Palestine, where her mother taught English in Tel Aviv and Ms. Wallerstein received "a very classical" Hebrew education. She returned to New York, graduated from Hunter College, married Robert Wallerstein, then trained the same time he did at the Menninger Clinic in Topeka, Kans. There, she also had their three children all of them now married with children of their own. In 1966 the family moved to California, where Ms.Wallerstein taught at Berkeley. In 1971 she began her study of the effects of divorce on 131 children from 60 mostly white, affluent families.

She's lucky do have done so well and had a fine education, sounds like and a mother who was able to teach and support the family, and raised them in a time before the US financial system was taking a nosedive.  it seems to me that like many fatherhood-is-mandatory preachers, their own lack of a father growing up didn't compromise their future college, professions, or success in life. 

Here as promised is a case of JBKelly (theory at least) being rehearsed to judges.  

Conference Gives Very Yellow Light to Child Relocation

The grande dame (this was 2012) presented a panel and two judges moderated a response. (GROUP setting -- transference -- see signature block on some of this) Scroll down to the relocation presentation and judges' panel afterwards.  note the example used of a career woman offered a Chair at Harvard -- children not young, father not particularly involved in their lives (skipping visitation, etc.).  Vote was 90/10 (in a panel moderated by some judges) that she should not be allowed to relocate -- even if it meant switching custody to the father.

I rest my point about Tavistock and the power of "group transference" and why we should not be letting courts set their models from foreign states (i.e., not in the home state) in closed-corporation conferences paying attention to THEIR groupthink.  There's a literal cult going on here, enabled by internet and many other issues .  . .They are authoritarian in the "group" mode and don't like being questioned about the systems from people not on the speakers' list.  Kinda like church....

Obviously.

[FYI -- these comments take a while to finish.  Looks like I got (above) a more complete version of it from Dr.T. -- w/photos of the attorney who took cyanide in the courtroom after being convicted of arson on a multi-million$$ estate, over which he was in legal trouble on (two photos, one of the burnt-out home one of him). so I cleared out most of this one & adding an interesting previous article on the same guy:

Burning Man:  Attorney says he escaped his home in Scuba Gear -- now he's being charged with Arson (phoenix times, August 2009)

Like yes, he did attend Burning Man festival in Nevada -- but he was raised Mormon (Brigham Young) and had second child while graduating from Yale.  And at that time had Jana Bru, a different long-term girlfriend than the Suzy Spicer one treated to the courtroom convulsions.

He was not Mormon at this time. Estate had been an investment home.

Those who read this article will find a fascinating real estate deal on this home -- involving a Nevada-based Biltmore Estates, Inc., the head of which is former estate owner Benson  & VP, is Marin (the attorney's) then-girlfriend "Jana Bru."  He owed this group (on paper) $950,000 -- with his other home as collateral, in a promissory note (that document is associated with the burnt-out mansion.. . In fact, the previous RE investor who ALSO lost it to foreclosure (or was going to -- balloon payment -- Greg Benson -- is apparently a former partner of Marin's on another RE company:  Once Again.  

So our friend(sic) Greg is living at the mansion but not current on payments, and up the place goes for auction.  A third party (representing PRIVATE INVESTORS who'd sponsored the Benson & the later Marin purchase) Scott Gould then goes looking for a buyer, and here comes Marin.   The home is allegedly $3.x million -- but "a deal at" (approximately what Benson paid for it).  The higher appraisal apparently comes from the extra $950K loan registered on the property in a separate deal with a different (nevada) company -- the one where Benson's friend but now Marin's girlfriend, Jana Bru, is listed.  

She then forgives (Marin) the $950K note.  Go figure...the next month his note is forgiven, but had the effect of raising the APPRAISED value of the home.  I wouldn't have got this far -- except the next step:  Now Marin (again in trouble with the house -- gee, I can't imagine why!) is partnering with a Child Crisis Center (2011 annual report) in Mesa (AZ) to raffle off the home, which is legal in AZ (not Nevada) if the homeowner doesn't make a profit.  The crisis center was in a funding crisis from loss of state moneys.  

So the raffle was good to go, and no problem with the publicity -- Marin goes to climb Mt. Everest; but meanwhile the Dept. of Gaming had some questions about the legitimacy.  Marin wrote the raffle rules which ensured a tidy profit for himself (see artificially inflated price) -- only if they raised $4million could the house be won, i.e., some nice profits to split ($2.7 million total).  

Mormon, Yale, Burning Man, Trader, Mountain Climber (Scuba Diver), real estate (and art) wheeler/dealer, father of four, grandfather, a number of girlfriends after the ex-wife (who didn't make any news stories that I saw so far), and one article talks about a lifetime of guilt and shame (apparently didn't purge it), flying back and forth from Japan monthly at one point -- collaborating with/involving a Children's Crisis Center (who deal with adoptions and foster care, among other things) on the (dishonest) deal and trying to stay ahead of his own scams ("careful thrills"). . . .   

Perhaps if the elite of this country (and their media) were as fascinated with the details of life of the poor as they are with men like this, they might have figured out where some of this poverty came from. ...

The monthly mortgage on the place would feed a small family for a year.  The yearly interest on the mortgage ($200,000) -- which was going to the private lenders, whoever they were -- would put a group of two or three solidly into upper class, depending on how they controlled their expense to income, and ROI, etc.

Anecdotal and UP for Posting:

Regarding ARIZONA, NEVADA, Nonprofits and MARRIAGE-PROMOTERS -- not posted yet, but among the year 2000 signatories to the "Marriage Movement" document (a conference put on by: 1. a corporation (Dianne Sollee's  DC-based "LLC" that trademarked "smartmarriages.com"[tr], 2. David Blankenhorn's NY-based NONprofit Institute for American Values, and a Center (funded by Louisville, KY nonprofit foundation & the Lilly Endowment, religious focus) at the UChicago Div School -- and attended by many religious leaders (?) with a corresponding career path in getting HHS marriage promotion grants  [not to mention, Wade Horn himself, & Maggie Gallagher & Mike McManus)-- I looked up one that seemed rather, er, "fake," situation -- Les & Leslie Parrott, Ph.D.s (both) -- who'd established (with help) a Center in Seattle.

I went to the corporation page in Washington state, and the charitble registration for their "Foundatino for Healthy Relationships" (or whatever it was) and found a street address.  AS MY HABIT IS, I looked up the street address (on Google) and -- lo and behold -- this foundation, and two other versions of the Parrotts -- were listed as board of directors on an ARIZONA LLC (probably property).  You just never know til you go look. . . . 

This is the crowd, along with AFCC, that is obsessed with training OTHERS (not themselves) the honorable and ethical way to live life -- including abstinence, and make sure THEIR profits and success in life come from working an honest job ABOVE board in the current economic crisis -- which some of the more speculative and dishonest sectors of society have themselves created.

Just for a little on-topic reminder, the COURTS police the behavior and issue court orders (Valid or invalid, who knows?) which also direct the futures of those to be subject to the less profitable half of the double-standard.  Court orders can incarcerate, and perhaps Michael Marin is an object lesson in combining religion, Yale (law), and controlled thrill-seeking, and being able to take responsibility for one's own crimes.

(Did he ever actually practice law?)  My understanding of the Mormon religion is that marriage outlasts death (I could be wrong) so it's good he switched religions beforehand.

 

Now go back to the UBaltimore (hardly "Yale") School of Law and listen to how attorneys and the court are going to solve social problems through (socialism & the Protestant Work Ethic for the poor, and paper profits & losses for the more financially literate and less honest): 


~ ~ ~

The court coordinates efforts to produce resolutions tailored to an individual family's legal, personal, emotional, and social needs. UFCs are a response to clear and devastating problems.

I could not get a copy of the numerous drug tests I was ordered to obtain until I entered my pro se appearance despite asking for them in writing from BOTH the GAL, Ross and all of my former attornies.  What was really interesting, was that I found letters addressed to my ex-husband from the lab that LCFC sends litigants to get tested, Easy & Affordable notifying him of my results!

Abstract from a 1997 paper (see SSRN link below) of Prof. Barbara A. Babb -- reasoning behind why the legal system has to change to therapeutic jurisprudence.

Notice the language they are talking in;

 social.jpg


2.    free_pdf.gif

Published Indiana Law Review, 1997  -- 68pp: 

ndiana Law Journal, Vol. 72, p. 775, 1997
Accepted Paper Series

Abstract:

Traditionally, the legal system has attempted to fashion morality in determining family legal issues rather than to devise legal remedies that accommodate how families live. This approach must change, and a new approach based on legal realism that effectuates the well-being of families and children must be developed. This article proposes an interdisciplinary approach based on an ecological and therapeutic jurisprudential paradigm to resolve family legal proceedings. An ecological approach, emanating from the ecology of human development social science paradigm, is one in which family law decision-makers consider factors beyond their conceptions of the family. This approach urges decision-makers to account for the family ecology, which includes the institutions within which family members participate, such as neighborhoods and religious organizations. Utilizing an ecological approach to family law jurisprudence implies that decision-makers appreciate the importance of socially rich environments for family members and facilitate linkages between and among as many systems in litigants' lives as possible. The therapeutic jurisprudential paradigm emerges from the field of mental health law and looks at the role of law as a therapeutic agent. The author urges that family law decision-makers consider outcomes that have therapeutic or positive consequences for families and children. To employ this interdisciplinary ecological and therapeutic framework, the court system must accommodate a range of dispute resolution techniques, including negotiation, mediation, and adjudication, allowing the judge to strike a balance between the parties' own resolution and a full court trial of family law issues. An interdisciplinary paradigm for family law jurisprudence that applies the ecology of human development perspective and notions of therapeutic jurisprudence can ensure that family law decision-makers and the courts are a source of strength and support for the continued and enhanced functioning of America's families.

 

Straight, main-lined AFCC -- an idea from the 1970s, and stated as such on their (old ) website.

This article is Republicans talking about reserving the police powers to the state (but it's in re: obamacare).  As it talks about jurisdiction, just decided to post it here:

From The Legal Intelligencer (see date below)

The Constitution's "Police Power," Including Tort Law, Isn't Subject to Federal Authority

Andrew Cochran
Contributor

Posted by Andrew CochranJuly 18, 2012 10:54 AM

 

The Supreme Court's decision in the Obamacare case (Acrobat document) highlighted the limits of federal authority over states' and individual rights. Over and over again, Chief Justice Roberts wrote of the Constitution's enumerated powers for the federal government and of the need to protect states from an overreaching federal government. He defined states' rights in terms of the inherent "police power" which is reserved for the states. Here is a key quote: 

The Constitution may restrict state governments--as it does, for example, by forbidding them to deny any person the equal protection of the laws. But where such prohibitions do not apply, state governments do not need constitutional authorization to act. The States thus can and do perform many of the vital functions of modern government--punishing street crime, running public schools, and zoning property for development, to name but a few--even though the Constitution's text does not authorize any government to do so.Our cases refer to this general power of governing, possessed by the States but not by the Federal Government, as the 'police power.' See, e.g., United States v. Morrison, 529 U. S. 598, 618-619 (2000).

And Justice Roberts was unwilling to enable the federal government to mandate the purchase of health insurance under the Commerce Clause, in contradiction to the "police power" of the states.

"The Commerce Clause is not a general license to regulate an individual from cradle to grave, simply because he will predictably engage in particular transactionsAny police power to regulate individuals as such, as opposed to their activities, remains vested in the States...

Spoiler

RE:  ""The Commerce Clause is not a general license to regulate an individual from cradle to grave, simply because he will predictably engage in particular transactions."  -- no, but a sincere effort will be made to do so through the carrots and sticks method of doling out and withholding federal grants (including to feed the huddled masses of poor so they don't clog the streets and interrupt commerce within the states) -- and also because, the GAO can't track it's own stuff anyhow, nor can/does the US treasury department know exactly where a few trillion (DOD) or 5 dozen billion (HUD) or ??? (HHS-- no one really looking too hard) -- actually went.  That's what the Kelly O'Meara article on one of these posts (dated to about 2004/2005) was saying.

The last comment on the SCRIPPS foundation was just because of their collaboration in the Truancy project with this University of Baltimore school of law center called "CFCC."  Remember how Harhut was commended for setting up the Truancy program (STARS) way back when, and how innovative it was?  well maybe it was, but hardly original idea -- it came from being promoted by these personnel, with help from ScRIPPS-Howard, which is involved with media.

JURISDICTIon that way now -- it really, really counts!  And people who unified these courts, knew that (they are, after all, lawyers & judges, etc.)

We the People with Unalienable Rights or Indentured to USA, Inc. [and its debt, and fake money]? Slaves only get to sue their masters if their masters wave sovereignty, which most don't.  
Whose JURISDICTION are you really in?  Concepts ..  USConstitution 
  •  CFCCs & Corps push UFCs to get subject matter jurisdiction
  • Govt& Court affiliated NONprofits exist to hide people, profits & this purpose
  • Courts = to collect the debt.  ALL Attorneys = Officers of the Court
  • So, who is the ABA, then? Or "faith-based" corporations?

I just showed how ONE Baltimore-based Center (CFCC at a Law School -- train up the next generation; central location to WDC) started in California and Washington DC looks like (year 2001 is as far back as they show on the one site) -- and started setting up a BLUEPRINT FOR UNIFIED FAMILY COURTS -- here we go on "SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION (red link, above):

Notice, no one bothered to solicit input from the 50 states, John and Jane Doe -- this is a Roundtable of the Righteous Experts and Concerned Family-Helpers (and members of their local bar association, a good percent):

Source:   http://law.ubalt.edu/centers/cfcc/ufc/blueprint.cfm

 

A blueprint to design a Unified Family Court should include: 

pay careful attention to what they wanted (and now have, who knows how many places?)

A specialized court structure either a separate court or a division or department of an existing court established at the same level and receiving the same resources as a trial court of general jurisdiction.

They want funding and equal clout.

Comprehensive subject-matter jurisdiction over the full range of family law cases, including juvenile delinquency and child welfare.

There you go. the words "subject matter jurisdiction" caught my eye (finally) after I read the other material on jurisdiction. I'd already known that in the history of family courts, all that was required for "jurisdiction" was a custody dispute that the couple couldn't settle. HOWEVER, this is now centralized and expanded subject matter jurisdiction to claim all the social service resources that come with dependency -- including adoption, foster care, therapy etc.

NOTE -- already (and separately, sort of) the NACC and others had been pushing (HARD) the realm of children's welfare law as a certifiable speciality within ABA.

A case management/processing system involving early and hands-on contact with each family law case.

They don't want others screwing it up with differing theories, or without the right cronies. This also assures more income overall for GALs, etc.

A judicial assignment system where the family appears before one judge for resolution of the entire case, or where a case management team coordinates the case.

that way non-AFCC judges or judges with the wrong concepts (like, old school, and more interested in due process, etc.) won't contaminate the recipe - -and one BAD (or good) JUDGE can determine a child's future.

These are no longer individuals (with their unalienable or even legal in their own state rights) coming before, but "cases" which have to be managed. What chance would such individuals within a family of complaining to "management" in this setup?

An array of court-supplied or court-connected social services that meet the litigants' non-legal needs, including those related to family law problems.

i.e., the court gets to order "non-legal needs" although it still is posing as a court and not a therapist's or doctor's office (so far; give it some time).

Obvious non-legal needs will probalby have a close match to Access/Visitation endorse or Welfare-supported Diversionary causes -- or simply be billed outright to the non-indigent.

A user-friendly court accessible to all family law litigants, including self-represented litigants.

well-informed pro se litigants can still challenge a power structure, and there are other places where (we) are being appropriately "managed."

 

. . . .  .Sorry about all the indented sarcasm, but there it is.  

it's signed Professor Marcia Babb -- and here are some of her prior writings about it: - notice dates written (1997,1998 -- one in 2008) versus dates put up on-line.  They were first published in law journals, later in SSRN -- which is a social services writings database:

Professor Barbara A. Babb

(i've talked about Prof  Barb Babb on blog before, and this center, but never fully noticed the SUBJECt mATTER JURISDICTION and how it was #1 -- create the specialized courts (with equal clout & funding) and #2 -- give them subject matter jurisdiction over the desired populations. . . . . . Smart, huh?
Meanwhile, here were some of the connections held in the 1990s;

She is an Advisory Council member and former member of the ABA's Standing Committee on Substance Abuse and has participated in that committee's model national unified family court project. Babb also is a member of the ABA's Unified Family Courts Coordinating Council. She is a member of the Editorial Advisory Board of the Family Court Review. She frequently teaches continuing legal education courses in the family law and child advocacy areas.

 

Babb served as a consultant to Chief Judge Robert C. Murphy's Family Division Review Committee in 1993, to the Court of Appeals of Maryland's Standing Committee on Rules of Practice and Procedure to draft the Family Division Rule in 1997, and to Chief Judge Robert M. Bell's** Ad Hoc Committee on the Implementation of the Family Divisions from 1998 and 2000. She chaired the Pro Bono Coordinating Council from 1990 until 1994, and she was a member of the Board of Directors of the People's Pro Bono Action Center, Inc. during that same period.

[Please notice coincidence of position on Pro b ono Action Center // Coordinating Center, while drafting rules for the family division (1997).

**An amazing judge, I put interview/biography up at familycourtmatters.wordpress.com.  His parents were sharecroppers (NC) but separated while he was VERY young (never really knew his father)-- mom & boys migrated north to Baltimore; he and his 2 brothers were raised by a single mother from a broken family and they appeared to have been poor.  

He helped challenge and overturn segregation, graduated from college AND Harvard and had a fantastic career as a judge, absolutely proving that there is NO hope for fatherless children and children in his position will never again have the privilege of going with their mother where her motherly or survival instincts lead them..  Therefore more funds should be given to push fatherhood on low-income (heck, no -- everyone!) lest we have more Judge Bells who upset the (white male) status quo as he and some associates/mentors (eventually including Thurgood Marshall) obviously did! Someone needs to keep those independent women under better control; who knows they might raise a future President of the United States (again) or something!

Did I mention graduated from Harvard Law School in there somewhere?

(Scripps-Howard Foundation helping with Unified Family Courts -- CFCCs link in signature block:  JURISDICTION.  SO, THEY HELP CFCC ESTABLISH TRUANCY COURTS BECAUSE EVERYONE KNOWS THAT THE BEST PLACE TO BECOME LITERATE (OR DEVELOP A DESIRE TO READ as opposed to becoming CAREER CRIMINALS) IS IN THE US K-12 "PUBLIC" EDUCATION SYSTEM):

 

(I just like to look things up -- note that the company was developed in the Jim Crow era? (after Civil war), and before Federal Reserve, Income Tax, World War I & II, fiat money taking currency off the gold standard, and a whole lot more.  Sounds like they survived the 1929 depression OK . . . . .)


Who's that foundation? Why are they so interested in UFC's (Unified Family Courts?) -- (See that second link right next to the one I pasted from here.)-- Edited by Outlaw_Wild_DoubleBill-KickbackCourts on Monday 30th of July 2012 10:30:56 AM 

http://scripps.com/foundation/about/history.html:

The original Foundation, incorporated on August 15, 1962 with the state of Ohio, has a more specific mission "recognizing, encouraging, improving, developing, stimulating and supporting the interests and educational and/or literacy capabilities of persons and institutions who have made, are making, or are believed capable of making contributions to the field of journalism in the United States."

Founding trustees were Charles E. Scripps, Jack R. Howard, Edward W. (Ted) Scripps II, and two financial executives, Robert F. Winkler, secretary/treasurer of The Edward W. Scripps Trust and Harold E. Neave, secretary/treasurer of The E. W. Scripps Company. The original offices were in New York City, then the company's headquarters.

EW Scripps Company, I'll paste brief blurb/link below.  Dates to 1878...

E. W. Scripps' eldest grandson, Robert P. Scripps, promptly supported with a gift of 100 shares of Scripps company preferred stock. Robert Scripps has continued to be the Foundation's major individual supporter. He is an Emeritus Trustee today. 

By 1969, the Foundation had an established scholarship and special grants program and a handful of national competitions to foster excellence in journalism

It's what trusts do -- they protect corporate or family wealth and direct it as they please to projects of their choice.  This one seemed to entail expanding control and direction of media & journalism -- and of course they are going to head for schools (fund centers, etc.) (like the CFCC at UBaltimore) and sometimes own a piece of major media:

In 1986, Albert J. Schottelkotte, senior vice president of Scripps Howard Broadcasting Company, became president and CEO. He served as chairman in 1996. Under Schottlekotte's leadership, the Foundation established the Scripps Howard Visiting Professional Chair at the E. W. Scripps School of Journalism at Ohio University and the Ernie Pyle State Historic Site in Dana, Indiana; created the Ted Scripps Fellowships in Environmental Reporting; became a leader in the national literacy campaign; and expanded the scholarship program.

Some foundations seem to love spreading their name around (sowing their wild oats?); others prefer not to.

ALl of them understand it entails distributing money in exchange for fame and/or control of a situation.  That's what the wealthy do and how they protect their wealth (including from too much taxation by forming TAX-EXEMPT FOUNDATIONS) and influence. Otherwise they'd be working jobs like we do and paycheck to paycheck.


ClabesIn 1996, Judith G. Clabes became president and CEO of a new and expanding Scripps Howard Foundation. She served as chairman in 2008. Clabes was editor of The Kentucky Post for 13 years and before that was editor of the Sunday Courier & Press in Evansville, Indiana. She brought an extensive background in journalism education and community service to the Foundation.

...E. W.SCRIPPS COMPANY HISTORY

  THEY DIDN'T GO PUBLIC FOR OVER 100 YEARS, IT WAS A PRIVATE COMPANY BUYING AND RUNNING MEDIA -- AS MEDIA CHANGED (PRINT, RADIO, TV, CABLE, ETC.):
The Early Years (1878-1934)

In 1878 Edward W. Scripps borrowed $10,000 from his brothers to help launch America's first information revolution. With the loan, the young entrepreneur founded a newspaper in Cleveland aimed at an emerging - but yet unserved - mass audience of urban workers.

"The Penny Press," named for its affordable price, was clear, concise and politically independent. It quickly became the model for the nation's first mass medium.

From Cleveland, Scripps took the formula to dozens of other cities, building one of the first newspaper chains under common ownership.

In 1907, his independent spirit led Scripps to challenge the Associated Press, which at the time struck exclusive agreements with only one newspaper in each markeT, thereby discouraging the launch of competing newspapers. Scripps responded with United Press International. The service was available to all and became a leading force in worldwide journalism for decades to come.

Scripps also nurtured a syndicated features service, initially built around the writing of his sister, into a licensing and syndication company that thrives today as United Media.

In the early 1920s, Scripps added "Howard" to the company's operating name to recognize the growing contribution of Roy W. Howard, an aggressive young newsman who rose to become president and chairman of the concern.

The Advent and Development of Broadcasting (1935-1980)

At the urging of Jack R. Howard, Roy's son and later his successor, the company took advantage of America's next information revolution by launching radio stations in the 1930s, then some of the country's first local television stations in the 1940s. Two of the company's first TV stations are still among its most successful: WEWS in Cleveland, whose call letters were selected to match the founder's initials and WCPO in Cincinnati, named for its affiliation with The Cincinnati Post.

In 1950, Scripps launched Charles Schulz's comic strip, "Peanuts." Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the rest of the group quickly worked their way into the funny pages of more than 2,000 newspapers around the world.

During the 1950s, and continuing through the 1980s, Scripps solidified its position as one of the most successful newspaper publishers of the post-war era, and built its reputation as a leading operator of local television stations.


Cable Television Systems (1981-1990)

In the early 1980s, in an effort to develop a profit source that wasn't dependent upon advertising, Scripps began buying and building cable television systems, eventually becoming one of America's largest cable operators.

In 1988, for the first time in the company's history, the Scripps family sold stock to the public. Shares of The E.W. Scripps Company opened in the public market at $8 (adjusted for a 2:1 split in 2004).

New Technology Leads to New Media Opportunities (1991-2000) . . . ..

Outlaw, it wasn't until my ex appealed the Judge's last Order (it was quashed) and I entered my pro se appearance that I was FINALLY able to get my hands on my file.  There are memorandums by the GAL that I never saw, there are copies of medical records of my four year old (not my ex-husband's child) that I never gave consent to be released, as well as sealed documents from another case. 

Unbelievable yet believable; I know another case (cross-continent) where the mother barely could get her file.  It's why I say it's not the personalities, it's the system.  In a system with checks and balances, this would not happen.  Primary reason for such corruption:  don't believe in the law; money, fraud.

The system is not "broken" it's a system with inherent design flaws, and not by accident. Steer clear of people who say it's broken and they have a fix -- they're not looking straight (or talking straight, or both).

It's here, we have to deal with it -- but notice, it's when you went pro se that you got results?  Officers of the Court.  Well, who is the court -- and who is it representing?

See subject matter jurisdiction, baby... Unified family courts have jurisdiction over many matters re: family; but before then conciliation courts had other types of jurisdiction.  This was planned.

Spoiler

Here's some of the links on jurisdiction (that wouldn't fit in signature block): See the two on CFCCs and "subject matter jurisdiction"

We the People with Unalienable Rights or Indentured to USA, Inc. [and its debt, and fake money]? Slaves only get to sue their masters if their masters wave sovereignty, which most don't.  
Whose JURISDICTION are you really in?  Concepts ..  USConstitution 
  •  CFCCs & Corps push UFCs to get subject matter jurisdiction
  • Govt& Court affiliated NONprofits exist to hide people, profits & this purpose
  • Courts = to collect the debt.  ALL Attorneys = Officers of the Court
  • So, who is the ABA, then? Or "faith-based" corporations?

CFCC link  leads to the Center for Families & Children in Baltimore (UB School of Law).  This is an AFCC-type center and openly admits they are into therapeutic jurisprudence (not justice based on law).  But to have legal ability to order services from cronies still took some doing -- this explains how they did it.

Also references the NCSC (National Center for State Courts) -- see ABA thread.  See lackawanna AOPC report which references it (Can search the term on-line if you load the pdf).

They went around providing training-- this is gradual centralization of our country based on ideas NOT from "we the people" but "them the Officers of the Court in association with mental health professionals for mutual PRIVATE benefit to be sold to the public at large as mutual PUBLIC benefit."

All I do is read their material and see what it's saying and compare to reality.  Yep, that's what's going on!

  •  Provided presentations on the structure, theoretical foundations, advantages, physical attributes, operation, services, and performance evaluation of Unified Family Courts in collaboration with the National Center for State Courts (December 2008).  (NEW MEXICO)  Note the courts were to be their own evaluators - -how's that for "separation of powers!")  [I talk about NCSC -- AOPC WmBrowning mentions them; it distributes ideas to the courts.]

  • Developed workshop and provided technical assistance to Memphis task force considering a Unified Family Court model (January 2008).  [gave them a nudge, but no doubt there were already connections in Memphis]

  • Summit on Unified Family Courts: Serving Children and Families Efficiently, Effectively and Responsibly, Baltimore, Maryland. {{notice, it's not about "JUStICE" but about "SERVICING Children & FAMILIES" -- no "individual rights" here, baby! Not even on the map.  Collectivism.  How noble.
  • Over one hundred fifty judges, court personnel, attorneys and academic experts representing twenty-five states attended the Summit, co-sponsored by the American Bar Association and CFCC and funded by the Maryland Administrative Office of the Courts and Casey Family Programs

Oh, you mean people in BALTIMORE weren't following the budgets of THEIR AOC either?  Or were asleep at the wheel? (note MD proximity to WDC).

The conference covered issues critical to the development of Unified Family Courts, including services and accountability, standards and measures to assess Unified Family Courts, the critical need for judicial leadership and training, the ways to establish Unified Family Courts, the critical need for judicial leadership and training, the ways to establish a Unified Family Court, addiction and other non-legal issues, collaboration in the legal community, and self-represented litigants (2007).

Rather than legislative leadership (representative government) it's JUDICIAL leadership (Judges are typically lawyers, right?).  From father knows best to "the Court knows best."  Which of the public were solicited to attend the conference? (No, that would be too messy and argumentative, right?)

  • American Bar Association (ABA) [SEE new Topic, incl. their consolidated audited financial statements!] Truancy Court Program Initiative, ABA Standing Committee on Substance Abuse. Provided technical assistance and wrote a project report for the Scripps-Howard Truancy/Literacy Project [URL is to "BLUEPRINT FOR CHANGE" report (2002-2003).... 
  • wait a minute, I thought Truancy project (STAR) was Harhut's great creative original idea!.. wait a minute -- how many of the juveniles sent upstate @ "KidsForCash LUZERNE" were sent up on minor infractions (from school) or truancy matters?  
  • Could anyone have POSSIBLY foreseen this setup might've been abused?Aren't we glad we have the courts, schools, and the ABA (plus a private foundation) working closely together, seeing as the schools can't teach all their graduates to READ, and ILLITERACY leads to violence?
"Preface to "Truancy, Literacy and the Courts". . . .

Spoiler

 

  • Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania.  Provided technical assistance to the unified family court pilot site.  (2002)  (was already unified, just getting a Boost from Baltimore CFCC) (wonder how!  More ideas?)

  • District of Columbia Family Court Project, District of Columbia Superior Court. Drafted Congressionally-mandated legislation establishing a family court in the D.C. court system (2001)****[drafting & pushing for legislation is a key feature of AFCC personnel...]
    • Notice -- these are LAWYERS.  how easily could they have provided a link to that legislation, sothe public can see how they pulled this off ---   but simply forgot to, I guess.
    • I also note that DC is not a regular "state."  Do they have an elected senator or representative ?? (NO....)  So AFCC (or at least this particular CFCC) must have had some influence with Congress.

  • .Summit on Redefining Florida's Family Courts, Florida Family Courts. Assisted Florida judicial circuit courts to facilitate family court pilot projects and developed recommendations for model court (2001).

If anyone should be redesigning family courts, it should definitely be the people working in them, and not the people who will later be subject to the redesigned courts, who need not be in on the "blueprint" specs.  (next post here I guess)

    • Discussion Paper and Program on Unified Family Courts,California [AOC] Administrative Office of the Courts. Presented information about Unified Family Court model during an interactive workshop (2001)  [FOR WHO?  Where are all these LINKS?]

Why are they so interested in UFC's (Unified Family Courts?) -- I've posted on it here and over at wordpress (the LGH blog) -- why the intense interest in the courts being CHANGE AGENTS for the entire country? Especially from Annie E. Casey, Scripps-Howard** (FORD, Rockefeller), out in our area, Wm. T. Grant Foundation, etc.?

HOW TO GET A COPY OF YOUR REGISTER OF ACTIONS:
_______

1) Prepare a letter as follows in two copies:

TO: the Clerk John A Clarke, Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles 
FROM: (your name)


Please accept this notice as request to access court records, to inspect and to copy, pursuant to my Due Process and First Amendment rights, as re-affirmed by the Supreme Court of the United States in Nixon v Warner Communications, Inc (1978).


This request pertains to the Register of Actions (NOT the online Case Summary) in  case caption (case number), in (name of courthouse). 


Date: 
[signature]
_________
(your name)


DECLARATION OF (your name)
1) I went on to the courthouse.
2) I delivered a copy of the letter (Exhibit 1) to Deputy Clerk (his/her name) .  
3) The Deputy Clerk refused to provide the records. 

2) Go in person to the Office of the Clerk in the courthouse where the case was heard.
3) Present the two copies to a person, who MUST HOLD THE TITLE OF "DEPUTY CLERK" (no other person is under oath relative to court records).
4) Ask to have your copy stamped "RECEIVED".
5) Practice a bit of civil insistence - make it clear that you know that the Case Summary is NOT the Register of Actions, and that it is your basic Civil Right to have a copy of the court records in your case, and that the Deputy Clerk is in violation of his/her Oath of Office if he/she deny you access to the records.
6) It may also be helpful to bring a copy of the standard Disclaimer, published online, which shows that the Case Summary is not a court record at all: http://www.scribd.com/doc/39881015/
7) In case they still refuse to provide a copy of the Register of Actions, I would ask for a short declaration, documenting the interaction:

DECLARATION OF (your name)
1) I went on to the courthouse.
2) I delivered a copy of the letter (Exhibit 1) to Deputy Clerk (his/her name) .  
3) The Deputy Clerk refused to provide the records.

Other links, same topic:

  • Computerized or Con-Puterized? (i've probably posted here before long ago)  SIMPLE EXPLANATION OF THE PROBLEM THAT COMES WITH TRANSITION FROM PAPER TO ELECTRONIC, BUT BOTH SYSTEMS IN FORCE:
  • here are escalating concerns that the legal system in the U.S. is vacating the Constitution as well as violating the rights of increasing numbers of its citizens. A number of recent disclosures buttress this perception:

    • The Kids for Cash scandal in Pennsylvania (6500 juvenile cases overturned and vacated)

    • The strange and inexplicable imprisonment of Los Angeles attorney Richard Fine for nearly a year, following his attempts to confront the judges in Los Angeles County for the conflict of interest in receiving monies that were adjudicated unconstitutional (Sturgeon vs. County of Los Angeles)

    • The recent revelation in the San Bernardino County Sentinel that many California judges are receiving large and unexplained property loans which are possibly redolent of bribes and payoffs

  • The failure of Barack Obama to produce a birth certificate indicating he is, in fact, a natural born citizen and thus has legal standing to run for President of the United States

     (I'm going to leave that last one alone, but then it goes on to tell what Zernik discovered -- and how he got "rounded up"shortly after this was published

  • Spoiler

     

There is a further issue that Zernik finds equally troubling. The Notice of Electronic Filings (NEFs) now regularly produced by the computer systems may not even contain any signatures, digital or no, that are traditionally needed to prove that a document has been appropriately entered. Under CM/ECF, Zernik found that in certain cases no digital signatures whatsoever were issued in the NEFs of court orders and judgments. This raises grave questions as to the validity of the documents.

And how is the public to know if court papers are valid or not? According to Zernik, the public now cannot, in fact, know. The NEFs, the most critical instrument in determining which papers were valid court papers, were made visible only to specific attorneys in a given case, through CM/ECF, and were entirely omitted from PACER the public access system.

Zernik likens this system to a complex and invisible form of check fraud. The dual system created by the US courts through PACER and CM/ECF can be thought of as issuing checks, where the public is required to accept the checks from the courts in lieu of cash, while the court resorts to the habit of distributing unsigned checks, but only a select group of people are permitted to see which checks bear signatures and which ones do not, says Zernik.

Remember Maryanne Godboldo case?  No valid court order, but the SWAT team came after her kid anyhow.  

http://dunwalke.com/sidebars/andrew_cuomo.htm (far more complex, but footnotes the one I was after) (well, this is some of the history):

Rep. Todd Platts (R-Pa.), chairman of the subcommittee on Government Efficiency and Financial Management, tells Insight that his subcommittee has been focused on trying to learn "what financial systems are working and those that aren't, and what is being done to fix the problems. The biggest challenge to getting a clean audit is DoD, and its biggest problem is its financial-management systems. The GAO has said that the challenge there is long-running institutionalized practices they've identified several thousand different financial-accountability processes used there and they're trying to get those thousands of systems to be uniform and combined as one efficient system."

 

(dated 5/8/2006

 

. . .the DoD recently added to its Website a slide show that begins with "We are America's Oldest Company, Largest Company, Busiest Company and Most Successful Company." The accompanying slides describe the DoD as a corporation by explaining that it is bigger than Wal-Mart, Exxon-Mobil, GM and Ford and refers to President George W. Bush as the chief executive officer and Congress as the board of directors, with the American people being the "stockholders."

 

Critics point out that DoD has been the biggest impediment to getting the federal government's books balanced, that under Bill Clinton in fiscal 2000 the department could not account for $1.1 trillion (and still hasn't), and that for seven years it has been unable to audit its books. Rumsfeld has turned the air blue trying to impress both the Pentagon establishment and the entrenched and congressionally protected civil-service bureaucracy with the need to correct these problems. He is fully aware that if DoD were indeed a corporation the bankruptcy courts and the Securities and Exchange Commission long ago would have shut down this "corporation" on which the nation relies for its defense.


Indeed, the GAO further reports, "As a result of material deficiencies in the federal government's systems, record-keeping, documentation and financial reporting, readers are cautioned that amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and related notes may not be reliable."


So the books can't be audited and what information is made available "may not be reliable."


And why was the GAO unable to "provide an opinion"? According to David Walker, the comptroller general of the United States, "there are three primary reasons" why the consolidated financial statements remained unauditable for fiscal year 2003: 

(1) serious financial-management problems at the Department of Defense (DoD); 

(2) the federal government's inability to account for billions of dollars of transactions between federal entities; and 

(3) the federal government's ineffective process for preparing the consolidated financial statements.


Walker explains in his report of the government's financial statements that "We designated the serious financial-management problems at DoD as high risk since 1995. 

 

 

 

  • HERE IT IS:  http://www.dunwalke.com/resources/documents/ArticleScans/Sized/Insight-59B_Missing_2005-11-07_v5a.pdf (A google cache.  HUD Cannot account for $59Billion, for real!)
  • Susan Gaffney, HUD Inspector General had to testify infront of a House subcommittee, Stephen Horn (R-California). . . . 
  • "What is amazing is that Gaffney devoted most of her testimony to failed processes, rather than instances of theft, conversion, embezzlement or other larceny...  "A huge computer system isn't need for HUD to balance the books -- a monthly statement reconciliation is all that's necessary (cf.  Lackawanna AOPC report -- you find they've been doing this with the GAL or Parenting Coordination or Kids First programs?  ha, ha, ha ....)
  • whistleblower Jack Ballinger quoted...
  • anonymous " blaming computer glitches is what they do when they want to hide fraud." (just read it!)

 

 

 

This type of fraud is similar to Medicaid -- one set of bills is submitted and another to the patient.  Same deal when it comes to federal reimbursement for court-related programs which are based on YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY#.   

Apologize for the format, and I'll stop initiating extra topics -- but this one has to do with accountability and justice for sure.  Consider the implications of false arrest records and disappearing children -- or citizens!


 Outlaw, it wasn't until my ex appealed the Judge's last Order (it was quashed) and I entered my pro se appearance that I was FINALLY able to get my hands on my file.  There are memorandums by the GAL that I never saw, there are copies of medical records of my four year old (not my ex-husband's child) that I never gave consent to be released, as well as sealed documents from another case.

The biggest challenge to getting a clean audit is DoD, and its biggest problem is its financial-management systems. The GAO has said that the challenge there is long-running institutionalized practices they've identified several thousand different financial-accountability processes used there and they're trying to get those thousands of systems to be uniform and combined as one efficient system."

. . .the DoD recently added to its Website a slide show that begins with "We are America's Oldest Company, Largest Company, Busiest Company and Most Successful Company." The accompanying slides describe the DoD as a corporation by explaining that it is bigger than Wal-Mart, Exxon-Mobil, GM and Ford and refers to President George W. Bush as the chief executive officer and Congress as the board of directors, with the American people being the "stockholders."

 

Critics point out that DoD has been the biggest impediment to getting the federal government's books balanced, that under Bill Clinton in fiscal 2000 the department could not account for $1.1 trillion (and still hasn't), and that for seven years it has been unable to audit its books. Rumsfeld has turned the air blue trying to impress both the Pentagon establishment and the entrenched and congressionally protected civil-service bureaucracy with the need to correct these problems. He is fully aware that if DoD were indeed a corporation the bankruptcy courts and the Securities and Exchange Commission long ago would have shut down this "corporation" on which the nation relies for its defense.


Indeed, the GAO further reports, "As a result of material deficiencies in the federal government's systems, record-keeping, documentation and financial reporting, readers are cautioned that amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and related notes may not be reliable."


So the books can't be audited and what information is made available "may not be reliable."


And why was the GAO unable to "provide an opinion"? According to David Walker, the comptroller general of the United States, "there are three primary reasons" why the consolidated financial statements remained unauditable for fiscal year 2003: 

(1) serious financial-management problems at the Department of Defense (DoD); 

(2) the federal government's inability to account for billions of dollars of transactions between federal entities; and 

(3) the federal government's ineffective process for preparing the consolidated financial statements.


Walker explains in his report of the government's financial statements that "We designated the serious financial-management problems at DoD as high risk since 1995.

  • Susan Gaffney, HUD Inspector General had to testify infront of a House subcommittee, Stephen Horn (R-California). . . . 
  • "What is amazing is that Gaffney devoted most of her testimony to failed processes, rather than instances of theft, conversion, embezzlement or other larceny...  "A huge computer system isn't need for HUD to balance the books -- a monthly statement reconciliation is all that's necessary (cf.  Lackawanna AOPC report -- you find they've been doing this with the GAL or Parenting Coordination or Kids First programs?  ha, ha, ha ....)
  • whistleblower Jack Ballinger quoted...
  • anonymous " blaming computer glitches is what they do when they want to hide fraud." (just read it!)

This type of fraud is similar to Medicaid -- one set of bills is submitted and another to the patient.  Same deal when it comes to federal reimbursement for court-related programs which are based on YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY#.   

Apologize for the format, and I'll stop initiating extra topics -- but this one has to do with accountability and justice for sure.  Consider the implications of false arrest records and disappearing children -- or citizens!
