Racketeering in the state and US courts is an essential part of the current crisis, which is often under-reported.
1) Theoretical PerspectiveIn criminological theory, the notion of racketeering by government is self-evident. It is formally categorized as "Organized State Crime".
Historically, the courts were a chief area for inflicting Organized State Crime on the People. Through the courts one may abuse specific individuals, groups, or all, under the color of law.

2) Precedents of Suing Government under RICOThe LAPD was sued under Civil RICO in the aftermath of the Rampart Scandal (1998-2000). Eventually the case was thrown out on the claim that Civil RICO is permitted only when harm is done to business, and the harm in that particular case was bodily. (I.E., If police maims you as part of its RICO enterprise, you have no Civil RICO remedy. However, if police burns your business as part of its RICO enterprise, you may have Civil RICO remedy).
The US is unique among "Western Democracies" in the number of Criminal RICO prosecutions of judges. State of Federal judges have been prosecuted in: San Diego (CA), San Jose (CA), Cook County (IL), Luzerne County (PA). There is a "sealed" prosecution going on in El Paso (TX), which smells like RICO, even if it is not called that.

3) More on RICO:RICO was written in broad terms. To state a claim, a plaintiff must allege four elements: (1) conduct (2) of an enterprise (3) through a pattern (4) of racketeering activity.[1] Each element of a RICO claim requires additional analysis: an “enterprise” is marked by association and control; a “pattern” requires a showing of “continuity”continuous and related behavior that amounts to, or poses a threat of, continued criminal violations; and “racketeering activity” involves the violation of designated federal laws.[2]
In addition, a civil RICO plaintiff must allege that it was injured in his business or property “by reason of” a violation of RICO’s substantive provisions.[3] This “by reason of” language provides the basis for the proximate cause requirement, established by the Supreme Court in Holmes and amplified in Anza [4]and Mohawk Indus [5].

4) And even more on RICOA RICO Federal Prosecutor's workbook can be found online, which takes you step by step in outlining the evidence for RICO claims.
5) RICO in the courtsThe typical conduct here is of an organized group of judges, clerks, and sheriffs, on the one hand, and Countrywide and its affiliated "loan originators" on the other; the enterprise is the use of the court setting for conducting robbery under the guise of legitimate court actions, and at the same time intimidating and retaliating against a victim/informer/witness; the pattern - is actions such as yours, through clerks that sent notices, or compiled records into a completely fraudulent court file, and racketeering activity here consisted of predicated acts per 18 USC 1961 related to robbery per state law, mail fraud per 18 USC §1341, wire fraud per 18 USC §1343, financial institution fraud 18, USC §1344, obstruction of justice 18 USC §1503, retaliating against a witness, victim, or an informant 18 USC §1513, engaging in monetary transactions in property derived from specified unlawful activity 18 USC §1957.

6) The electronic record systems (Sustain, PACER, CM/ECF) as prime evidence of RICO in the courtsThe electronic record systems of the courts (Sustain, PACER, CM/ECF) provide unique evidence, relative to RICO, e.g.,
a) The fraud in the systems is organized, system wide. It is not a case of sporadic production of a fraudulent document.
b) The fraud is well documented.
c) The fraud in the systems is central in concealing the conduct of the enterprise under the front of the courts, with judges, clerks, attorneys, all performing their roles in the enterprise.
d) Each issuance of fraudulent minutes, order, or judgment should be considered at least a couple of Predicated Acts per RICO. Therefore, the number of Predicated Acts in each case of simulated litigation is staggering.

7) Racketeering in the courts as a key element of the current financial crisis.Large-scale fraud in the courts under the current financial crisis, has been repeatedly reported by media, but hardly addressed by government.[1] Criminality, pertaining to banking regulation, has likewise been repeatedly reported, but hardly, if ever, prosecuted by government. [2]SEC v Bank of America Corporation (1:09-cv-06829) in the US District Court, Southern District of New York, is one of the best documented cases of racketeering in a US court, to cover up criminality underlying the current crisis. [3] Lomas v Bank of America () in the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, is one of the best documented cases of racketeering by Bank of America, its attorneys a state judge. [4] Additional cases of racketeering by Countrywide (Bank of America) that gained national publicity include Borrower Sharon Dianne Hill () [5]in the US Bankruptcy Court, PA, and Borrower William Parsley in the US Bankruptcy Court, Tx. [6] Bribing of state and US judges by financial institutions must be a serious concern. [7]Today, the indemnity for criminality, both past and future, vested in Bank of America and other financial institutions, is probably their most valuable intangible capital asset. However, this asset only works for the benefit of management, and against the interests of shareholders and all who do business with these criminal enterprises. [8]

Subject: Courts and Judges as enterprises under RICO, the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act
Date: Fri, 8 Jun 2012 12:16:08 -0400
From: Neil Gillespie
Hello Everyone,
RICO, the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, may be a remedy for the lawlessness that is sweeping our courts and nation. Last week I moved for reconsideration in the U.S. Court of Appeals under RICO, as set forth below.
We owe a debt of gratitude to Florida attorney Mary Alice Gwynn who sued The Florida Bar under RICO in April 2008, see Lanson v. The Florida Bar, case no. 9:08-cv-80422-WJZ, U.S. District Court, S.D. of Florida. Although the case was voluntarily dismissed, it was a brave first step. Ms. Gwynn was recently suspended from practice by the Florida Bar in retaliation. But since Ms. Gwynn sounded the alarm in 2008, Florida attorney Scott Rothstein was prosecuted for a $1.2 billion ponzi scheme under RICO, and Florida attorney David J. Stern improperly dumped 100,000 foreclosure cases on the courts, points made in my motion for reconsideration in the U.S. Court of Appeals.
Some of you reading this may also have a civil cause of action under RICO, see the links below.
On May 22, 2012 the Florida Supreme court denied without comment my motion for reconsideration in case SC11-1622. That ended any hope that the Florida courts would lawfully adjudicate this matter. The order and motion are on Scribd at the link. http://www.scribd.com/doc/96198449
On May 7, 2012 the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit in a related case denied my motions to consolidate two related appeals, denied leave to proceed in forma pauperis, denied appointment of counsel, etc. The order in C.A.11, 12-11028-B is on Scribd at the link http://www.scribd.com/doc/96197551
In response to the above, I moved for reconsideration in the U.S. Court of Appeals May 30, 2012 arguing that the federal courts have jurisdiction under the RICO act, the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations. The motion is on Scribd here http://www.scribd.com/doc/95369974
A related notice of May 31, 2012 as to in forma pauperis is on Scribd here http://www.scribd.com/doc/95571084
All told there are 18 related cases in the matter of Gillespie v Barker, Rodems and Cook PA. A list of the cases is on Scribd here http://www.scribd.com/doc/95369691
As set forth in my motion for reconsideration (paragraph 9), governmental units, such as the New York City Civil Court, may be "enterprises" within the meaning of RICO. United States v. Angelilli, 660 F. 2d 23 (C.A.2 1981). A court may be an enterprise within the meaning of RICO. United States v. Bacheler, 611 F.2d 443, 450 (3dCir.1979) (Philadelphia Traffic Court). Judges and lawyers may be "enterprises" within the meaning of RICO. U.S. v. Limas, 1:11-cr-00296, U.S. District Court, Southern District of Texas, Brownsville (Indictment of Judge Abel C. Limas March 29, 2011). http://www.scribd.com/doc/95369974/
I encourage anyone interested to read about RICO on Wikipedia, and the Cornell Legal Information Institute site. Again, some of you reading this may have a civil cause of action under RICO. Here are some highlights.
According to Wikipedia, "RICO provides for criminal penalties and a civil cause of action for racketeering acts performed as part of an ongoing enterprise." "Under RICO, a person who is a member of an enterprise that has committed any two of 35 crimes - 27 federal crimes and 8 state crimes - within a 10-year period can be charged with racketeering." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racketeer_Influenced_and_ Corrupt_Organizations_Act
According to Wikipedia, "RICO-related charge is considered easy to prove in court, as it focuses on patterns of behavior as opposed to criminal acts."
According to Wikipedia, "There is also a provision for private parties to sue. A "person damaged in his business or property" can sue one or more "racketeers"." "Both the federal and civil components allow for the recovery of treble damages (damages in triple the amount of actual/compensatory damages)."
The Cornell Legal Information Institute has the hyperlinked text of RICO here http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/part-I/chapter- 96
Attorney George Robert Blakey originally drafted RICO, and he is currently a law professor at Notre Dame. According to Wikipedia, "G. Robert Blakey remains an expert on RICO" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G._Robert_Blakey
Here is a link to Professor Blakey’s page at Notre Dame. Last week I emailed Professor Blakey with a link to my motion to reconsider under RICO but he did not reply.http://law.nd.edu/people/faculty-and-administration/ teaching-and-research-faculty/ g-robert-blakey/
Under 18 USC § 1965(a), a RICO civil action or proceeding against any person may be instituted in the district court of the United States for any district in which such person resides, is found, has an agent, or transacts his affairs. As I argued to the U.S. Court of Appeals, the ends of justice in this matter may require RICO civil proceedings instituted in a venue outside Florida and the Eleventh Circuit.
As of the time of this email, both my cases in the U.S. Court of Appeals are active, and no decision has been made as to a cause of action under RICO. The cases are appeal number 12-11028-B, and appeal number 12-11213-C.
Thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
Neil J. Gillespie
