Judges, Attorneys, Media, Child Support Representatives et al.
For the record, in relation to the prior Courtesy Copy submitted August 14, 2026, 8:58am Judge Baptiste (Seeing that you are the only Negro who don't see any racism)
Please find a Motion filed in the Seventh Circuit July 30, 2026, particularizing egregious Mississippi style which is now Illinois Racial Hatred in the courts as Clerks or Attorneys allegedly has DENIED every unchallenged motion by all attorneys not only in the Seventh Circuit but every court the Defendant is in.
Someone mailed to the Defendant a court order allegedly from a judge Frank H. Easterbrook DENYING the Motion.
FACT: The judge's are aware that the Defendant is a CERTIFIED CHICAGO TRANSIT AUTHORITY EMPLOYEE on the books but is living on welfare.
FACT: The judge's are aware that judge Ronald Bartkowicz used his robe unlawfully to issue a warrant against the Defendant making sure he never received any wages they unlawfully stole from him while off work injured on duty.
FACT: The judge's know that District Court judge Robert Blakey was an Assistant State's Attorney when this child support arrearage matter was created in the Criminal Enterprise of Cook County.
FACT: The judge's are aware that numerous judges are complicit in this diabolical paternity matter where child support arrearages are being sought for a child that was never the defendant's.
FACT: The judge's are aware that their own judges in the Seventh Circuit Diane Syke, Ann Claire Williams, Kenneth Ripple entered court orders against the Defendant saying that in 1987, the State of Illinois Ordered Joe Lawrence to pay child support, see Page 2 Par H.
Only because of the Defendant's skin color their are judges on the bench simply to vent their hatred at any individual outside of their ethnicity or sexuality as demonstrated in this very case.
Because Judge Baptiste have not ruled and has not attempted to because it is evidenced in all pleadings Negro judges have no authority over certain Caucasians, what the Defendant is experiencing in the courts are a norm in how to CRIMINALIZE or DESTROY INNOCENT BLACK, OR BROWN COLORED MEN in this Democratic City.
In case judge Baptiste decides to retire TO PREVENT FROM ADDRESSING the Defendant's meritorious unchallenged motions filed before the courts, this communication is being tendered to prevent the frivolous prolonging of this matter for the next judge to see the racial hatred that certain Blacks are not supposed to acknowledge or see.
Cook County Sheriff's stated to the Defendant years ago when judge Bartkowicz issued that bogus warrant, that this was not about any child support this is some other shit, nobody ever clarified what this was really about because as a working CTA employee with all of the corrupt judges at the CTA's disposal defendant never stood a chance after Boyd backstabbed him and became a judge.
PS..
Notice the Court Order, whoever typed that rubbish they failed to record "& SEEK THE JURISDICTION OF THE FBI TO DETERMINE PUBLIC CORRUPTION ALLEGATIONS DUE TO THIS CASE NO LONGER BEING PERSONAL CIVIL INVOLVING THE APPELLANT"
If the above isn't egregious it says, "IT IS ORDERED that the motion is DENIED. If this appeal proceeds to briefing and appellant Joe Lawrence wishes to renew his requests, he should do so in his brief on the merits an not in separate motions"
THIS ALLEGED ORDER IS ONLY SENT TO THE APPELLANT NOT TO ANY OF THE ATTORNEYS OF RECORD, perhaps this might be the reason why Troutman, Pepper, Locke, LLP withdrew from representing Experian Information Solutions, Inc.
What is most ironic the recording of judge Frank H. Easterbrook he denied every (motion he validly presented when he was the Chief Judge) the Appellant legal representation citing a case comparing him to a transsexual inmate Farmer v Haas and was allegedly quoted as saying "their is no way a Freeman can be preparing pleadings like this he must be in prison an inmate because that is all they have time for is sit in the law library and study cases."
The first Transperson to take their case to the Supreme Court over the very denial of appointing the Defendant an attorney Farmer v. Brennan is among the most frequently cited Supreme Court cases of all time
Their were some judges up there trying to help me but was outnumbered, I proposed to the Clerk, I understand the judges play chess the ones who can't stand me get me in a game with three of them, I will play them all at the same time if they defeat me, I will stop pleading in this court.
The FBI has their objective and has received just about everything requested but the Defendant has yet to stand before Judge Easterbrook or any judge who deem Pro se litigants as trash but has been many times denied but never tried in any of the courts.

APPELLANT'S MOTION FOR JUDICIAL NOTICE OF
ADJUDICATIVE FACTS, NOTICE OF STRUCTURAL DUE PROCESS VIOLATIONS, AND
REQUEST THAT THE COURT CONSIDER THE DISTRICT COURT'S DENIAL OF IMPARTIAL
ADJUDICATION & SEEK THE JURISDICTION OF THE FBI TO DETERMINE PUBLIC
CORRUPTION ALLEGATIONS DUE TO THIS CASE NO LONGER BEING PERSONAL CIVIL
INVOLVING THE APPELLANT
Appellant respectfully moves this Court pursuant to Federal Rule of
Evidence 201, 28 U.S.C. §§ 455 and 2106, and the Due Process Clause of the
Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to take judicial notice of adjudicative facts
contained in the record and accompanying public documents demonstrating
structural irregularities affecting the fairness of the proceedings below.
I. Grounds for the Motion
- Appellant submits certified court
records, DNA test results, service records, docket entries, and other
public documents establishing that significant factual and procedural
irregularities occurred during the underlying litigation.
- The evidence demonstrates that
Appellant was subjected to proceedings resulting in child-support
arrearage enforcement despite evidence that:
A- DNA testing excluded Appellant
as the biological father.
B-
Appellant contends he was never properly served in the action that
resulted in the default judgment.
C-
The default judgment was entered without personal jurisdiction, rendering
subsequent enforcement proceedings void if the lack of jurisdiction is
established.
D-
Arrearages were later assessed despite Appellant's contention that no
valid child-support order requiring payment had ever been entered.
E-
Appellant presented affidavits, court transcripts, legal precedents,
Summary judgments no licensed attorney state or otherwise ever denied to any of
the pleadings or submitted counter
affidavits.
F-
That pursuant to Rule 56.1 Summary Judgment The rule is very
clear that "all material facts set forth in the statement required of the
moving party will be deemed admitted unless controverted by the statement of
the opposing party." Local Rule 56.1(b)(3)(B).
G-
The Cook County Judiciary having admitted to Appellant’s pleadings Cook
County judges do not honor Equal Protection of the Laws to Pro se litigants
with or without attorneys et al.
H-
That Case No. 11-3481, Democratic judges Diane S.
Sykes, Ann Claire Williams and Kenneth Ripple
In 1987 the State of Illinois ordered Joe Lawrence to pay
child support. He did not comply, and consequently the state revoked his driver's
license. He appealed the revocation to the Secretary of State, but
his appeal was denied. Lawrence also unsuccessfully sued his former employers, International Brands Corporation
and the Chicago Transit Authority, in state and federal court for embezzlement
and theft. "The appellees were not served with process in the
district court and are not participating in this appeal. After examining the
appellant's brief and the record, we have concluded that oral argument is
unnecessary. Thus, the appeal is submitted on the brief and record. See FED. R. APP. P. 34(a)(2)(c).
I-
Appellant’s license has never been suspended and in 1987 Richard J.
Daley, States Attorney had his top Super Attorney Obrietta Scott to non-suit
the charges of paternity against him due to the Paternity Tests excluding him
and the CTA never discharged him from employment and was off work with IBC with
a work-related injury fell off the truck tore his rotator and never received
workman’s compensation only welfare but someone else collected his workman’s
compensation.
J-
Hon Robert Blakey worked under Dick Devine 1996- 2000 as an Assistant
States Attorney and Chief,
Special Prosecutions Bureau, Cook County [Illinois] State's Attorney's Office,
2009-2014 during this whole cloud of irregularities of the State representing
then Police Officer Francoise Hightower in this extortion scheme disguised as
child support arrearage.
K-
Appellant prepared an Affidavit to Dick Devine
Jan 3, 2007 of the unlawful Remands and it was never investigated but
continuously covered-up and ignored the Civil Rights Violation’s perpetrated on
him.
L-
- Appellant further requests that
this Court take judicial notice that the district judge previously served
as an Assistant State's Attorney. Appellant's claims include allegations
of misconduct by Assistant State's Attorneys during the underlying
proceedings. Appellant does not assert that prior public employment alone
requires disqualification. Rather, when viewed together with the district
court's rulings challenged on appeal, Appellant contends these
circumstances raise issues concerning the appearance of impartiality that
should be evaluated under 28 U.S.C. § 455.
A- Structural unfairness
B- One-sided rule deviations
C- Loss of public confidence in
judicial neutrality
D- Illinois courts have held
that in such circumstances, actual prejudice has been required to FORCE REMOVAL
of a judge from a case, that is, either prejudicial trial conduct or personal
bias. Rosewood Corp. n Transamerica Insurance Co., 57 Ill 2d 247, 311 N.E.
2d 673.
E- Federal courts recognize
cumulative procedural defects as sufficient grounds for recusal.
F- The
cumulative procedural defects here rise to the level of structural errors,
undermining confidence in the integrity of the proceedings. Atwood,
941 F.3d at 885.
- Appellant also seeks review of
the district court's denial of leave to proceed in forma pauperis,
arguing that the denial improperly prevented meaningful appellate review
despite evidence of financial eligibility.
II. Legal Authority
Federal Rule of Evidence 201 authorizes judicial notice of facts that are
not subject to reasonable dispute because they are capable of accurate and
ready determination from sources whose accuracy cannot reasonably be
questioned.
Under 28 U.S.C. § 455(a), a federal judge shall disqualify himself in any
proceeding in which his impartiality might reasonably be questioned.
The Supreme Court has recognized that due process requires a fair and
impartial tribunal. See In re Murchison, 349 U.S. 133 (1955); Caperton
v. A.T. Massey Coal Co., 556 U.S. 868 (2009); Liljeberg v. Health
Services Acquisition Corp., 486 U.S. 847 (1988).
A judgment entered without personal jurisdiction because of defective
service is void. See Peralta v. Heights Medical Center, Inc., 485 U.S.
80 (1988).
Federal appellate courts possess broad authority under 28 U.S.C. § 2106
to vacate, reverse, or remand where justice requires.
The United States
Supreme Court acknowledged the judicial corruption in Cook County, when it
stated that Judge "Maloney was one of many dishonest judges exposed and
convicted through 'Operation Greylord', a labyrinthine federal investigation of
judicial corruption in Chicago". Bracey v. Gramley,
Since judges who do not
report the criminal activities of other judges become principals in the
criminal activity, 18 U.S.C. Section 2, 3 & 4, and since no judges have
reported the criminal activity of the judges who have been convicted, the other
judges are as guilty as the convicted judges.
Under Federal law which is applicable to all states, the U.S.
Supreme Court stated that if a court is "without authority, its judgments
and orders are regarded as nullities. They are not voidable, but simply void;
and form no bar to a recovery sought, even prior to a reversal in opposition to
them. They constitute no justification; and all persons concerned in executing
such judgments or sentences, are considered, in law, as
trespassers." Elliot v. Piersol.
III. Relief Requested
WHEREFORE, Appellant respectfully requests that this Court:
A. Take judicial notice of the accompanying adjudicative facts and public
records.
B. Consider whether the record presents an appearance-of-impartiality
issue under 28 U.S.C. § 455.
C. Review the district court's denial of Appellant's application to
proceed in forma pauperis.
D. Consider the cumulative effect of the jurisdictional and due-process
violations alleged by Appellant.
E. Grant such other and further relief as justice requires, including
vacatur and remand if appropriate.
F- Treat the Appellant as a Freeman Born & Raised in the United
States pursuant to the laws of the United States Constitution
“Any judge who does not comply with his
oath to the Constitution of the United States wars against that Constitution
and engages in acts in violation of the Supreme Law of the Land. The judge is
engaged in acts of treason. Having taken at least two, if not three oaths of
office to support the Constitution of the United States, and the Constitution
of the State of Illinois, any judge who has acted in violation of the
Constitution is engaged in an act or acts of treason. If a judge does not fully
comply with the Constitution, then his orders are void, In re Sawyer, 124 U.S. 200 (1888) he/she is without
jurisdiction , and he/she has engaged in an act or acts of treason.”
DECLARATION UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY
I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of
America that the foregoing is true and correct to the best of my knowledge.
