12-12-17 PRESS RELEASE -Large-scale fraud in the California, US courts' electronic record systems is detailed in a paper, peer-reviewed by CYBERLAW 2013


The paper documents large scale fraud in the California (Sustain) and US (PACER and CM/ECF) courts' electronic record systems.  The systems enable the deprivation of liberty and property with no due process of law, abuse of Human Rights and undermining of banking regulation under the current crisis. The systems also violate the respective laws, pertaining to the administration of the courts. The paper was subjected to anonymous peer-reviewed and was accepted by CYBERLAW 2013, a law and technology conference. To this date, no US-based law journal in the fields of Human Rights and Law and Technology, where such papers were submitted, agreed to process them for scholarly peer-review.  Two weeks after acceptance by CYBERLAW 2013 anonymous peer-review, the paper was "rejected" through a dubious procedure by a self-identified "volunteer" and "logistics" of the organizers, IARIA – the International Academy, Research, and Industry Association.

Sustain, PACER & CM/ECF– the electronic record systems of the Los Angeles Superior Court and the US courts, respectively.


Los Angeles and Jerusalem, December 17 –  a paper, documenting large-scale fraud in design and operation of the electronic record systems of the California (Sustain) and US courts (PACER & CM/ECF) was subjected to anonymous peer-review and was accepted for publication by CYBERLAW 2013, an international law and technology conference. [1]
The paper, authored by Joseph Zernik, PhD, of Human Rights Alert (NGO) documents how the electronic record systems of the courts enable the deprivation of liberty and property with no due process of law, abuse of Human Rights and undermining of banking regulation under the current crisis.
Papers by the same author on similar subjects were previously peer-reviewed and published in international technology and criminology journals.  The current paper adds case studies from recent years and legal analysis of the fraud in the electronic record systems of the courts, relative to the California and US law. 
In the California courts:
·         In Lomas v Bank of America Corporation in the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles Susan Lomas attempted to protect her rights against real-estate fraud by Bank of America.  California Judge Peter Meeka conducted on Lomas proceedings which, as was later discovered, were secretly noted in the minutes in Sustain, "off of the record".
·         In Marina Strand Colony II Homeowners Assn vs County of LA, in the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, former US prosecutor Richard I. Fine, Attorney for Plaintiff, exposed and rebuked the taking by California judges of "not permitted payments" (called by media "bribes").  Fine was subjected by California Judge David Yaffe to simulated litigation, which ended with Fine's false imprisonment.  Later, Sheriff Lee Baca of Los Angeles County held Fine for 18 months in solitary confinement (considered torture by international standards) under simulated booking records, which showed that Fine was arrested on location and by authority of the non-existent "Municipal Court of San Pedro".
In the US courts:
·         In Richard Fine v Sheriff of Los Angeles County in the US District Court, Central District of California, US Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, and the US Supreme Court, the habeas corpus petition of Fine was subjected to simulated review and repeatedly denied, while fraudulent, unauthenticated court minutes and decisions were recorded.
·         In Log Cabin Republicans v USA et al in the US Court, Central District of California, and later in the US Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, the 'Don't Ask Don’t Tell' policy of the US Armed Forces was challenged. In 2004 US Judge George Schiavelli issued a judgment in the case in favor of the United States and the case was listed as 'Closed'.  The 2004 Judge George Schiavelli Judgment was never overturned through an appeal, or any other judicial process. In 2010 US Judge Virginia Phillips appeared in the same case and issued the opposing judgment, in favor of the Log Cabin Republicans. The US Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit knowingly conducted a simulated appeal from the simulated Judge Phillips' judgment in this case.
·         In Citizens United v Federal Election Commission in the Supreme Court of the United States, the First Amendment was purported to permit unlimited donations by corporations to political campaigns. The electronic record system of the Supreme Court lists "judgment issued", but no judgment is to be found in the Supreme Court's electronic record system, and no judgment was served on the Federal Election Commission.
·         In Netsphere Inc et al v. Baron et al in the US District Court, Northern District of Texas, Jeffrey Baron, a successful hi-tech enterpreneur was subjected to simulated litigation by US Judge Judge W. Royal Furgeson, Jr.  The litigation was initiated with no valid summons and multiple simulated minutes and order records were registered by the Court.  In November 2010 through an Ex Parte Emergency Motion, a receiver was appointed over Jeffrey Baron's person and assets, a notion akin to slavery.  Regardless of multiple filings by Baron in the US Court of Appeals, 5th Circuit, such corrupt court practices are permitted to stand.   
·         In Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) v Bank of America Corporation (BAC) in the US Court, Southern District of New York, a landmark litigation under the current financial crisis, US Judge Jed Rakoff conducted simulated litigation, with no valid summons, with no minutes records, and where the court continues to deny access to the clerk's authentication records.  As the outcome of such conduct, banking executives, who unlawfully took $5.8 billion of shareholders' moneys, were permitted to keep the ill-gotten funds and none of the executives was held accountable.
The CYBERLAW 2013 paper also documents how in no case, where a court was noticed of the ongoing conduct of fraud on the court, did the court correct the false judicial records, or cease the conduct of the simulated litigation.
The paper provides detailed legal analysis, how Sustain and PACER & CM/ECF violate the laws of California and the US, respectively, pertaining to the administration of the courts, how they undermine the integrity of the offices of the clerks of the courts and amount to the maintenance of double-books of judicial records.  The records, which the courts present to the public in their online access systems, are not necessarily records that the courts themselves consider valid and effectual. However, the public is denied access to data, which the courts hold, and which would have permitted the public to distinguish between valid and invalid court records. 
Combined, the paper describes the electronic record systems of the California and US courts as shell-game fraud. 
The current paper offers far-reaching conclusions: In civilized societies, where separation of the powers of the branches of government is established by law, and where no court is permitted to enact its own rules of operation, no court should be permitted to develop and implement its own electronic record system.
Previously, US-based journals in Human Rights, or Law and Technology refused to review papers on similar subjects. [2,3] Likewise, no US-based legal expert has agreed to opine on such matters on the record. [4,5,6]  In contrast,  similar papers were subjected to anonymous peer-review, accepted, published, and presented in Data Analytics, Data Mining, and Criminology conferences in recent years.
Two weeks after acceptance of the current paper by CYBERLAW 2013 through anonymous peer-review, the paper was "rejected" through a dubious procedure by a self-identified "volunteer" and "logistics" of the organizers, IARIA - the International Academy, Research, and Industry Association. [7] Concomitantly, the author, Dr Joseph Zernik, PhD, of Human Rights Alert (NGO), was invited by the same organizers to participate in two discussion panels in the same conference.
In response, Dr Zernik forwarded his objection to the latest notice of rejection by IARIA and asked for corrective actions by IARIA elected officers. [7] In his December 15th letter, Dr Zernik notes that rejection through an ambiguous procedure of dubious authority was employed to overturn the acceptance through anonymous scholarly peer-review;  that the reasons, which are now provided for the rejection, are in part invalid, and in part ludicrous, and that conduct of IARIA amounts to effective censorship of novel, peer-reviewed report, which details large-scale fraud in the electronic records of the courts.
The 2010 submission of Human Rights Alert to the Human Rights Council (HRC) of the United Nations was in part based on analysis of the fraud in the electronic records of the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, and the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.  The submission was reviewed and incorporated into the official HRC Professional Staff Report with a note referring to “corruption of the courts and the legal profession and discrimination by law enforcement in California.”  
The CYBERLAW 2013 is planned as part of the 2013 submission by Human Rights Alert (NGO) for the 2014 Universal Periodic Review of Human Rights in the United States by the HRC.  Corruption of the courts in collusion with financial institutions and other large corporations is increasingly recognized as central factor in the abuse of Human Rights under the current socio-economic crisis in the United States.
