Dear all:

I copied into this new thread the facts I quoted regarding this case:

FALSE APPEARANCE BY COUNSEL, WHO WAS NOT COUNSEL OF RECORD IN FINE V SHERIFF
In Fine v Sheriff (2:09-cv-01914), the NON-CASE of Richard Fine's habeas corpus petition, the following facts should be noted:

1. Sheriff was rightly named as Respondent, since he is holding Richard Fine.
2. Sheriff refused to respond [because Fine is held with no legal foundation].
3. US Magistrate Carla Woehrle refused to release Fine, who filed ex parte application for his own release following refusal of the Sheriff to respond on a Habeas Corpus petition.
4. Eventually, Judge David Yaffe and the LA Superior Court purported to respond in lieu of the Sheriff, albeit - they were never named Respondents by Richard Fine. They were not the ones holding him.
5. Purported appearances for Judge David Yaffe and the LA Superior Court were by Attorney Kevin McCormick from Ventura County, a relatively young attorney, of no significance, but relatively far away...
6. Kevin McCormick failed to file the required certifications for appearance as Counsel of Record for David Yaffe and the LA Superior Court.  Regardless, Magistrate Carla Woehrle allowed him to appear.
7. Kevin McCormick filed briefs with Declaration by Counsel - himself, not a competent fact witness in this case at all.  No declaration by any of his clients was ever filed.
8. Kevin McCormick filed false records as evidence, with no authentication at all.
9. None of the records McCormick filed originated from his purported clients.  
10. Attorney Kevin McCormick, Judge Yaffe, and the LA Superior Court refused to respond to repeated inquiries to ascertain that McCormick was appearing as Counsel of Record for such clients under the respective caption.

 In short - there was no evidence in the court file that Kevin McCormick had ever communicated with Judge David Yaffe or the LA Superior Court.

Needless to say, no order or judgment were ever entered in Fine v Sheriff (2:09-cv-01914).

Such NON CASE for the habeas corpus of Richard Fine, and such appearances by false counsel were used to affect deprivation of Liberty.

As a reminder
THE ESSENTIALS OF A NON CASE: 

NON-CASES - the cornerstone of judicial corruption in the United States today, in both state and US courts, are surely another subject that is never taught in law school. Therefore, let me offer you the overview: 

1. Commencing records must be defective
2. Termination records must be defective as well.
3. No valid commencement of jurisdiction may be entered (no valid assignment to a judge, no valid reference, etc).
4. No valid dispositive order on jurisdiction may be entered (no valid order on disqualification, either denying or granting it).  
5. All executable orders that may be issued by the court during the course of a NON-CASE must be defective, and none must be entered, which explains the plethora of unsigned orders and judgments in the US today.
6. No court fee may be collected, where any mention is explicitly provided that such fees were for court services.
7. Public access to court records that would provide definitive evidence of the racketeering by the judges must be denied - today - often achieved through implementation of fraudulent case management systems at the courts.

         Scott:

Please notice addendum to my response, aiming to clarify the potential error in automatically assuming that counsel for Defendants in US v City of LA et al, was counsel of record, and that Defendants made appearances in such NON-CASE.

Addendum:

Since most people on this list are interested in the Richard Fine case, I should have also included an example of fraud in false appearance of counsel, who is not counsel of record, from the Richard Fine NON-CASE:

Note: If you have not read the complete Judge Jeff Bohm Memorandum Opinion regarding litigation practices of Countrywide/Bank of America, you should be aware that an integral part of the fraud in appearance of counsel who is not counsel of record, is in employment of counsel with a clause of "no communications with client".

FALSE APPEARANCE BY COUNSEL, WHO WAS NOT COUNSEL OF RECORD, IN FINE V SHERIFF (2:09-cv-01914) 

In Fine v Sheriff (2:09-cv-01914), the NON-CASE of Richard Fine's habeas corpus petition, the following facts should be noted:

a. Sheriff was rightly named as Respondent, since he is holding Richard Fine.
b. Sheriff refused to respond [because Fine is held with no legal foundation].
c. US Magistrate Carla Woehrle refused to release Fine, who filed ex parte application for his own release following refusal of the Sheriff to respond on a Habeas Corpus petition.
d.  Eventually, Judge David Yaffe and the LA Superior Court purported to respond in lieu of the Sheriff, albeit - they were never named Respondents by Richard Fine. They were not the ones holding him.
e. Purported appearances for Judge David Yaffe and the LA Superior Court were by Attorney Kevin McCormick from Ventura County, a relatively young attorney, of no significance, but relatively far away...
f. Kevin McCormick failed to file the required certifications for appearance as Counsel of Record for David Yaffe and the LA Superior Court.  Regardless, Magistrate Carla Woehrle allowed him to appear.
g.  Kevin McCormick filed briefs with Declaration by Counsel - himself- alone, not a competent fact witness in this case at all.  No declaration by any of his clients was ever filed.
h. Kevin McCormick filed false records as evidence, with no authentication at all.
i.  None of the records McCormick filed originated from his purported clients. 
j. Attorney Kevin McCormick, Judge Yaffe, and the LA Superior Court refused to respond to repeated inquiries to ascertain that McCormick was appearing as Counsel of Record for such clients under the respective caption.

In short - there was no evidence in the court file that Attorney Kevin McCormick had ever communicated with Judge David Yaffe or the LA Superior Court.

Needless to say, no order or judgment were ever entered in Fine v Sheriff (2:09-cv-01914).

Such NON CASE for the habeas corpus of Richard Fine, and such appearances by false counsel were used to affect deprivation of Liberty.

Scott:

Let's try to keep this fact-based:

a)  [Defendants]  "had adequate and competent representation by counsel" -
How did you establish that in US v City of LA et al Defendants were represented by Counsel, or for that matter, that Defendants appeared at all?
Fraud in US courts regarding appearances by counsel who was not counsel of record is pandemic, especially when dealing with government, large corporation, and very large law firms.  Please see for example a 72 page Memorandum Opinion on the matter by US Judge Bohm, Texas, pertaining to Countrywide/Bank of America litigation practices. 
How did you establish that the counsel were counsel of record in the first place in US v City of LA et al?
http://inproperinla.com/00-00-00-countrywide-08-03-05-case-of-borrower-parsley-outside-counsel-scheme-hon-jeff-bohm-us-judge-decision-rebuke--s.pdf

b) In such NON-CASES, Defendants have no reason to oppose.  As seen in the case of US v City of LA et al, at the end, no order or judgment were entered, and the key provisions of the Consent Decree were never enforced:
(i) Narcotic officers were NOT required to provide periodic financial disclosures.
(ii) The justice system was NOT required to allow access to secret databases.

Why should defendants oppose a sham court action when it is merely a display that is intended to achieve nothing at all, except for appeasing the public clamor for justice against Defendants?

The NON-CASEs in the courts, where government and big corporation are defendants, are created for the benefit of Defendants, not against them.

c) I believe that your basic error is in assuming that NON CASES are adversarial litigations. They are not.  The case of SEC v BAC in NYC was a perfect example of that.  SEC and BAC appeared in court following public clamor for tough action against banking institution officers who were involved in the current mega-heist.  SEC and BAC appeared in court in perfect coordination of positions - the complaint was filed, for securities fraud, albeit, no individual was named defendant. Therefore, there were no implications to individuals.  With the filing of the complaint they filed a proposed settlement - for $33 million, where Bank of America never admitted any fault.  For bank of America it was probably a fraction of its monthly legal bills.  And yet it was reported by news media across the nation as SEC getting tough with the banks.

If a complaint is filed and a defendant files a responsive pleading without noting a jurisdictional defect or fails to note the jurisdictional defect in a timely manner, the defendant has waived formal service and personal jurisdiction is established.  It would appear that the case cited by jz had adequate and competant representation by counsel, yet they failed to move for dismissal for a lack of jurisdiction (a rudimentary motion of first resort along with various other Rule 12 dismissal motions).

It seems like JZ believes he would have been a more adequate defense team than the defense attorneys of record in usa v. la that he examines in his email.  Congrats JZ.

  -- scott

It is well settled that the defense of lack of personal jurisdiction can be waived, see Insurance Corp. of Ireland, Ltd. v. Compagnie des Bauxites de Guinee, 456 U.S. 694, 703-05 (1982), and, as to a defendant appearing in an action, the defense is deemed waived if not raised by motion before trial, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(h)(1).

Subject: FACT BASED DISCUSSION: Judge Gary Fees, the Rampart scandal, and Consent Decree in US v City of LA et al (2:00-cv-11769)

The current thread concerned a specific judge - Gary Feess, and a specific case - US v City of LA et al (2:00-cv-11769), which was of the highest public policy significance, where no summons was issued, and likewise, no dispositive court order/judgment was entered.  In short - a case that had no commencement and no termination - the hallmarks of sham court actions in courts across the United States.

Of interest in this thread would be your response  to John Wolfgram, who initially stated that summons was not optional, but a must, and later provided the opposite opinion - that summons was irrelevant to the commencement of court action.  His former opinion corresponded to yours, and his latter opinion contradicted it.

1) What would you say regarding summons in civil action at the US courts? Is it just an optional instrument that is irrelevant for commencement?

2) What would you say about a US court action where no dispositive judgment or order were ever entered (either deferred or non-deferred) ? Was it irrelevant for termination?

3) How would you distinguish a case at the US District Court, like US v City of LA et al (2:00-cv-11769), with no valid commencement and no valid termination form NON-CASE at all?

P.S.

QUINTESSENTIALS OF THE NON-CASE:

NON-CASES - the cornerstone of judicial corruption in the United States today, in both state and US courts, are surely another subject that is never taught in law school. Therefore, let me offer you the overview:

1) Commencing records must be defective
2) Termination records must be defective as well.
3) No valid commencement of jurisdiction may be entered (no valid assignment to a judge, no valid reference, etc).
4) No valid dispositive order on jurisdiction may be entered (no valid order on disqualification, either denying or granting it). 
5) Appearances for the "Parties of Benefit" should be by false counsel- not Counsel of Record.
6) All executable orders that may be issued by the court during the course of a NON-CASE must be defective, and must not be entered, which explains the plethora of unsigned orders and judgments in the US today.
7) No court fee may be collected, where any mention is explicitly provided that such fees were for court services.
8) Public access to court records that would provide definitive evidence of the racketeering by the judges must be denied - today - often achieved through implementation of fraudulent case management systems at the courts.

• The basic claim is that both US v City of LA et al (2:00-cv-11769) was a NON-CASE.
• The evidence suggests that SEC v BAC is likewise a NON-CASE 
• Another example: On top of all other characteristics, the US Court of Appeals 9th circuit refunded Richard Fine for his Emergency Petition in Fine v Sheriff (09-71692). That was one reason I knew it was a NON-PETITION from day one. Therefore, I filed in that case (Dkt #2) a request similar to that which was filed in Huminski v Corsones.  Fine v Sheriff ended with the original Kozinski Fraud - an unsigned, unentered order, for the same reason - since no dispositive order/judgment could be entered in a NON-PETITION.
• Most relevant to the issue of Richard Fine: Marina v LA County (BS109720), where Richard Fine was purportedly arrested in the ancillary proceedings, was a NON-CASE as well.  Review of the case demonstrated eight (8) consecutive orders, judgments, and writs, all without exception were defective and invalid.  The odds of such series as a chance occurrence at the courts, are very close to zilch.  However, in NON-CASES, it is the rule. You may recall that Commissioner Murray Gross pretended to appear as a "Debtor Examiner", but had no Appointment Order at all.  Refusal of Richard Fine to accept the authority of Murray Gross, and refusal of Judge David Yaffe to issue an Appointment Order, is in fact what keeps Richard Fine in jail.  What Richard Fine has never figured out was that Judge Yaffe had no way to issue a valid Appointment Order for Murray Gross in Marina v LA County, since it was a NON-CASE.  That is also the reason that Richard Fine was subjected to a warrantless arrest, and is kept in a hospital, with no booking papers at all - you could not enter a warrant in a NON-CASE.
• Sturgeon v LA County was likewise a NON-CASE, Justice James A Richman presided for years, with no Assignment or Appointment Order, and deemed himself "Sitting as Judge by Assignment", while the court (doubling as the clerk, tripling as Intervenor) deemed him "Presiding by Reference", and Judicial Watch inexplicable recent papers deemed him "Presiding by designation".  All attorneys who were involved in Sturgeon v LA County, including, but not limited to Judicial Watch, should therefore be deemed in collusion.

The fact that Gary Feess, a judge that you considered one of the more decent on the LA bench, had no difficulty in engaging in a NON CASE in a matter of the highest public policy significance, is a gauge of the state of the judiciary and the legal profession today.

Joe - There are a number of procedures used by courts that have the effect of a dismissal.  For instance, in Calif criminal courts we have a DEJ procedure.  It's called Deferred Entry of Judgment.  A judgment is established or PLEA.  That PLEA or Judgment is not entered IF the defendant performs some type of act designated by the court/DA.  The acts are usually some community service and/or restitution.  If the defendant performs those actions he returns to court, like in the case of the consent decree, and the judge then dismisses the case.

   Most of these type of procedures are found in the Rules of the Court, which most pro pers and many attorneys do not read.  They operate to provide procedures not found in Title 28 of the US Code or the Criminal Procedures of a States Penal Code. 

    As for your deference to attorneys, they are not actually taught much law in law school.  Law students are taught how to find the law, apply facts to legal elements to a case, how to write and conduct legal research.  A tiny portion is spent teaching oral advocacy.

    The primary value of an attorney is his or her experience in practice.  In fact many civil attorneys of great experience are worse in criminal cases, usually, than pro pers, because they THINK they know the law, when they don't.  One civil attorney in LA, a few years back, committed extortion while negotiating a civil tort case, without realizing he was committing a criminal act.  He was charged with extortion.  It is more common for Civil Attys not to know Criminal law than the other way around, but criminal attorneys are notoriously ignorant of most civil law and it's excruiating amount of unnecessary hearings, discovery motions and status conferences. 

    There are specialists in Calif in various types of law.  I know a very successful civil appeal attorney specialist who refuses to take criminal appeals on the basis that he doesn't know criminal law and it's huge list of reasons for reversal of a criminal conviction.

     The basic idea, which is seldom accomplished, is to take complex legal issues and explain them in a paragraph.  You begin with the type of proceeding.

     I refer you to the Quo Warranto page of the Calif Atty General's website.  It explains how you remove an officer of a corporation, board, a government office, such as mayor, supervisor, controller, Governor, etc. by using the writ of Quo Warranto.  I can guarantee you that not 1 out of 1000 attorneys know that this writ even exists, let alone have experience in having such writ issue from a court.

     But it is a fascinating Writ, which you have to get the AGs permission to file in a court.  So as you can imagine it has to be highly fact based and supported by almost irrefuteable evidence.  I recommend you read about it as an educational exercise and to help focus your aim at government corruption.  An effective tool if you will, that like all powerful tools must be used carefully.  I  think you will find it as interesting as I find it, as a tool to stop tyranny. - Brad

Subject: FACT BASED DISCUSSION: Judge Gary Fees, the Rampart scandal, and Consent Decree in US v City of LA et al (2:00-cv-11769) Re: Who or what is authoritative (was: FACT BASED DISCUSSION)

Dear Mr Roland:

As previously stated, I am no attorney, not even by a long shot.  In case you are qualified (and please make it clear in your response) to evaluate the various claims, I invite you to provide your opinions on the matters at hand:

a) Significance, or lack thereof, of issuance of valid Summons by the Clerk of the Court in commencing of honest, valid, and effectual action in United States courts.

b) Significance, or lack thereof, of entry of judgment or another dispositive court paper, in termination of an honest, valid, and effectual action in United States courts.

c) Significance, or lack thereof, of attestation by Clerk of the Court, in establishing court orders, judgments, and other dispositive papers, as such that require "Full faith and Credit" pusuant to the US Constitution Article IV 1.

d) Significance, or lack thereof, of NEFs (Notices of Electronic Filings) as such attestations by Clerk of the US Court under operations of United States courts today.

e) Legal foundation, or lack thereof, for denial of access to United States court records,  which are the paper copies of dispositive records, and both electronic and paper copies of the NEFs in a case that was never sealed.

Truly,

Nonsense. Opinions on this or any other topic need to be evaluated on their merits, the argument and evidence, not on who makes the claim. Argument from authority is a logical fallacy. I know many members of the bar who are clueless about the law, and others, who are historians or philosophers and who have investigated and thought deeply, whose understanding is much greater.

As for the summons issue, there is more than one way to establish that due notice has been given, and the mere absence of service of a summons is not dispositive of the question of whether in personam jurisdiction has been established. One has to look at all the alternatives. However, a summons is the most common way to do it, and there is usually a summons filed with the court even if it hasn't been served to the respondant (who may or may not be a "defendant"). One needs to look at whether the summons needed to have been "issued".

By the standard of other subjects I study, law is not a particularly deep field, but it seems to be deep enough for more laypersons not to get it without a lot of study and reflection. Law school is one way to begin that process, but it is far from sufficient, and  most lawyers and judges never get very far toward a deep understanding.

One of the great sources of tragedy for the human condition is that it takes human beings so long to learn important things, and that it is so difficult for those who do learn to convey their learning to subsequent generations. Many solutions to our most serious problems will be elusive unless or until we find ways to educate more people much better and far faster.
