Subject: January 4, 2010 - Asking Sheriff Lee Baca to retract false and deliberately misleading papers regarding the arrest and booking of Attorneys Fine and Gottschalk - two attorneys who filed complaints pertaining to widespread corruption of the Los Angeles Superior Court judges, and were subsequently hospitalized by the Sheriff.

January 4, 2010

Hi [ ]:

I believe that my January 4, 2010 letter made the situation clear regarding Sheriff Lee Baca, Los Angeles County:
a) Sheriff Lee Baca has no true warrants and he has no booking papers in the case of either attorney Richard Fine or Ronald Gottschalk, two experienced attorneys who filed complaints regarding widespread corruption of judges of the Los Angeles Superior Court, and were subsequently hospitalized.  Richard Fine, perfectly healthy for all we know, is by now hospitalized for 10 months by the Sheriff.
b) Sheriff Lee Baca kept in the case of Richard Fine other papers that were false and deliberately misleading (a "remand order"), which he claimed were the legal foundation for the arrest, but he would not produce a copy of such papers.
c) Instead, Sheriff Lee Baca provided, in lieu of the California Public Records of arrest and booking of these attorneys - dishonest, invalid, ineffectual derivatives - false and deliberately misleading printouts from the Sheriff's fraudulent computer system.   These were not any valid legal records at all. Not even by a long shot. They were simply fraudulent computer printouts.  However, the Sheriff insisted on delivering such papers to me again and again, by fax, by mail.

The simplest fraud to demonstrate was that in both cases the printouts claimed that the actions against the attorneys were by the Los Angeles Municipal Court - when no such court existed for almost a decade.  Moreover, even three months after I started repeatedly requesting that the Sheriff eliminate such fraudulent information, the Sheriff insists on repeatedly producing such fraudulent information to me in lieu of the California Public Records.

In short
The Sheriff's Department of Los Angeles County runs a fraudulent computer systems, and insists on distributing fraudulent printouts from such systems. The case of the Sheriff is particularly disturbing, because it is a system that is directly employed for false imprisonment of persons.  The Sheriff was engaging in the wrongdoing ad hominem -- on the bodies of the persons.  The level of corruption is just mind-blowing.  As indicated in my letter to the Sheriff - it is by now obvious that he is running the Sheriff's Department of Los Angeles County as what must be deemed a corrupt organization.  Key personnel in his office were involved in the production of the fraudulent papers and the false arrest and booking of the two attorneys - the very core personnel that were charged with the safeguard of the integrity of the Sheriff's jail system.

Truly,

Subject: 10-01-04 RE: December 29, 2009 letter by Sheriff Lee Baca - request for correction of false and misleading information regarding Arrest, Booking and Bail of Attorneys Fine and Gottschalk.

Lee Baca, Sheriff
Los Angeles County, California
By fax:
By email:


The favor of a response within 5 business days was requested

Dear Sheriff Baca:

I am in receipt of your letter dated December 29, 2009, [1]
regarding my ongoing requests, since mid-October 2009, that the Sheriff comply with California Public Records Act and provide access to arrest and booking papers of inmates Richard Fine and Ronald Gottschalk. Both were attorneys who had filed complaints pertaining to alleged widespread corruption of the judges of the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, both were arrested by the Sheriff, with no warrants at all, and both were held under coerced hospitalization in what appeared as a thinly veiled procedure to cover up the fact that neither was ever legally booked. In parallel, your office has repeatedly provided me with false and misleading responses to requests for records. 

Please accept this letter as a kindly request:
a)      That you correct the false and misleading information published online by your department, and
b)      That you provide me with honest, valid, and effectual records, if any existed.  If none existed, request is that you retract the false papers provided so far, and provide none instead, but avoid propagating any additional false records.

You December 29, 2009, letter repeated the denial of access to any honest, valid, and effectual arrest and booking papers, stating The Public Records Act does not require that a public entity create a record in order to respond to a request for information.  The conclusion was inevitable that no such honest, valid, and effectual records existed.

However, the fact that no honest, valid, and effectual records existed to support the legal foundation of the arrest and holding of the two attorneys, did not provide a license for the Sheriffs Department to propagate, repeatedly, false and misleading records instead.

You again forwarded false and misleading records that Richard Fine was arrested at the Municipal Court of San Pedro when no such agency existed for almost a decade, and after I have repeatedly alerted you to the false nature of such information since mid October 2009.

In addition - this time false and misleading information was forwarded regarding Ronald Gottschalk as well:
a)      That he was released on bail of $0.00.  Atty Gottschalk repeatedly stated that his bail amount was around $500,000. 
b)      That his case was heard by the Los Angeles Municipal Court, while no such court existed for almost a decade.

In sum:
Your office published online false information regarding both attorneys.  Your office previously transmitted such false and misleading information to me by wire.  The recent letter repeated the transmission of such false and misleading information this time by USPS First Class mail.  Conduct of your office relative to such false and misleading information involved only not one person, but what appeared to be the core organization of your office Executive Assistant, the Legal Department, and Risk Management Bureau, and the Discovery Unit.  Such accumulating evidence raised concerns regarding the nature of the organization under your stewardship.

Let me repeat my request:
a)      Please correct the false information published online by your department, and
b)      Please provide me with honest, valid, and effectual records, if any existed, that were the legal foundation for the arrest and booking of Richard Fine and Ronald Gottschalk.  If none existed, request is that you retract the false papers provided so far, and provide none instead, but avoid propagating any additional false records.

Truly,

Subject: Clarifications for Mr Harrington: RE: 10-01-04 RE: Zernik v Connor et al (2:08-cv-01550);

Dear Mr Harrington:

I was sorry to find you irritated.  The reason that I thought that others might be interested were the following:
a) In Zernik v Connor et all, defendants included 10 judges of the California Superior Court, County of Los Angeles, and Countrywide's Angelo Mozilo and Sandor Samuels, as well as others.  They were alleged to have involved violations of the law, amounting to racketeering.
b) The case at the United States Court was unique, in that I have recently managed to gain access to records that were denied elsewhere, and which provided definitive proof of the large scale fraud in operation of PACER & CM ECF.  I believed that anybody who had business before any United States Court should be interested in the details of such alleged fraud.
In short -
a) The allegation was that the standard approach of United States Courts and United States Courts of Appeals in response to cases involving judicial corruption - was to employ fraud in PACER & CM/ECF, of the type that was dubbed "Kozinski Fraud", as perpetrated on the falsely jailed Richard Fine, and which was recently also demonstrated in part by Scott Huminski as employed by Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor.
b) Such fraud was directly tied to denial of access to court records, in apparent violation of First Amendment and Nixon v Warner Communications, Inc (1978) rights in courts across the United States.

For all the reasons listed above, I thought some people might be interested in the subject.

Truly,

Joseph Zernik

If it is your attempt to promulgate useful information and heighten public awareness, let me be the first to inform you that your efforts are an abysmal failure.  If you want to be effective, give us the highlights once a month with a summary or give us a concise two sentence caption with a link, should we want to learn more.

Seriously, my Inbox has been swelling to the point of obscurity and absurdity with the deluge of prolix and sometimes incoherent rambling from certain members of this purported group.

          Requesting clarification re denial of access to court records.
The favor of a response within 10 business days was requested.


TO Terry Nafisi, Clerk of the Court, United States Court, Central District of California, 312 N. Spring Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012, by certified mail, and by email to <terry_nafisi@cacd.uscourts.gov> and <Dawn_Bullock@cacd.uscourts.gov>.
Dear Clerk Nakisi:
Thanks again to Ms Dawn Bullock for her help and her patience during my visit to the Clerk’s Records Department on December 29, 2009.   During that visit, I submitted a written request to access court records pursuant to Nixon v Warner Communications, Inc (1978). [1]
The vast majority of my requests to access court records, to inspect and to copy, were denied.  I am writing to request a written explanation for such denial of access:
1)       My requests to access records from four different paper court files (referenced above), even my own case, were denied. Deputy Clerk John initially claimed that the paper filings were destroyed immediately upon scanning. When I suggested that it could not possibly be the case, he tracked back. Nevertheless - I was denied access to any paper court file records.
2)       My requests to access electronic court file records in CM/ECF - specifically - the Notices of Electronic Filings (NEFs) of the same four court files, were likewise denied - even in my own case - with no explanation at all.
3)       My requests to access records, which documented the shredding of the claimed-to-be-shredded paper court files, were likewise denied - with no explanation at all.
4)       My requests to access (to obtain copies) paper printouts of electronic court file – the NEFs in the same four cases, were likewise denied, with the exception of printouts of the NEFs in my own case, Zernik v Connor et al, which I was provided by Ms Bullock, and for which I thanked her.
5)       Ms Bullock and I had a detailed technical discussion in re:
a)      The legal foundation, if any, for the operation of CM/ECF at the US Court for the Central District of California;
b)      The specific function of the NEFs in that system, and its legal foundation, if any;
c)      Denial of public access to the NEFs, and its legal foundation, if any.
6)       Ms Bullock stated that the foundation for the operation of CM/ECF at the California Central District was in the General Order 08-02.  From memory, I told her that such order was unusual among the General Orders - since it had no name of a judge who authored it, let alone a signature, and likewise, had no attestation by a clerk. Therefore, I questioned its validity and effect.  Ms Bullock checked it up, apparently found my recollection to be correct, and then told me that she would get back to me on the issue.
7)       Ms Bullock likewise stated that the denial of access to NEFs, except in one's own case, was founded in General Order 08-02. I challenged her from memory on that issue as well. I stated from memory that NEFs were mentioned only in one or two paragraphs of the order, but no reference was made to access, only to the NEFs function as certifying court records, and also as authenticating service and entry of parties' papers, and of court orders and judgments. Again - Ms Bullock said that she would research the matter.
8)       Ms Bullock stated that the denial of access to NEFs resulted from the fact that personal information was included in them. I challenged that answer, since the same information was also provided in the Parties and Attorneys page – which was publicly accessible. Ms Bullock agreed with me on that point.
9)       I also asked about the rules pertaining to issuing or not issuing of a valid NEF for a given record filed at court. The response was that an NEF was automatically issued any time a clerk scanned or posted a record into the PACER docket. I challenged that notion. It would have to be researched as well.
10)    I also raised the question regarding the display of general orders of the Court online. It was always the same exact 50 general orders that were available on display for public viewing and access, for at least two years. However, it was obvious that in fact, the total number of general orders of the court was much larger. Ms Bullock was not clear on that issue. However, in response to my request she promised to provide me a printout of the index of standing orders covering the period from 2001-2009. She stated that such period would cover all general orders pertaining to electronic filing at the California Central District.
11)    In general, although I was not an attorney, not even by a long shot, I believed that the issues discussed above had to be founded in either the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, or in Rules of Court, but not in General Orders, let alone “unofficial manual” of CM/ECF.  I therefore also requested clarification regarding the legal foundation for any of the specific rules of the operation of electronic filing, as practiced in the Central District of California.

Ms Bullock told me that I could expect a written response soon after the beginning of the new years, and I am writing to repeat my request for such written response on the matters listed above.

Respectfully,
Dated: January 04, 2010

Dear Clerk Nakisi:

Happy New Year, and thanks again to Ms Dawn Bullock for her help and her patience during my visit to the Clerks Records Department on December 29, 2009.   Review of the docket and the NEFs demonstrated that a number of persons executed transactions in the docket of the above referenced case.  However, none of them was identified by name. Moreover, nowhere was any statement found to the effect that such transactions, and such docket were in fact executed by Deputy Clerks, by authority of Clerk of the Court, Terry Nafisi. 

I therefore request the following clarifications through statements on the record by Terry Nafisi, Clerk of the Court:
1)      That dt did/did not refer to Ms Donna Thomas.
2)      That Ms Donna Thomas was/was not authorized as a Deputy Clerk during the period covered by the docket of Zernik v Connor et al (2:08-cv-01550).  In case Ms Thomas was indeed authorized, please provide the date of her appointment as Deputy Clerk.
3)      That transactions by Ms Donna Thomas in the docket of Zernik v Connor et al (2:08-cv-01550) were/were not executed by authority of Terry Nafisi, Clerk of the Court.
4)      That the refusal on March 5-7, 2008, by Chris Sawyer, Pro Se Clerk, to issue summonses prepared by Plaintiff in Zernik v Connor et al (2:08-cv-01550), and his issuance instead of summonses prepared by Chris Sawyer, Pro Se Clerk, himself, which were docketed under the complaint (Dkt #1), and notated in the unnumbered second docket slot, was/was not by authority of Terry Nafisi, Clerk of the Court.
5)      That all other transactions in this docket, which were executed by court personnel, were/were not executed by authority of Terry Nafisi, Clerk of the Court.
6)      That the docket of Zernik v Connor et al (2:08-cv-01550), as displayed  in PACER was/was not deemed by the Clerk of the Court an honest, valid, and effectual docket of the United States Court, pursuant to United States law.
