AFFIDAVIT
IN SUPPORT OF MOTION TO VACATE REMAND JUDGMENT DUE TO FEDERAL
JUDGES ACTING AS “PRIVATE CITIZENS” “TRESPASSING UPON THE LAWS” DENYING
JURISDICTION w/AFFIDAVIT MAKING SAID JUDGMENT A “NULLITY”
I am Lee Oties Love, Jr., Pro Se, in this cause, being first duly
sworn on oath deposes and states, as follows;
1.
That on Feb. 20, 2018, said Court of Appeals suspended
the Rule to Show Cause against the Appellant and ordered that Brief be
submitted March 23, 2018.
2.
That on March 23, 2018, Appellant filed his Brief and
properly Noticed all parties with a copy of the Briefs.
3. CIRCUIT
RULE 31. Filing of Briefs and Failure to Timely File Briefs
(d) Failure
of Appellee to File Brief. When an appellee's brief is not filed on
time, the clerk shall enter an order requiring the appellee to show cause
within 14 days why the case should not be treated as ready for oral argument or
submission and the appellee denied oral argument. The court will then take
appropriate action.
4.
That it is now 83 days surpassing in of the Federal
Rules for any clerk or Appellee to respond.
5.
That because Cook County is deemed a Criminal
Enterprise where judges only wear their robes so as to “Trespass upon the
Laws” and Bully indigent or helpless clients “Private Citizen” Pamela Loza has issued a Bogus Warrant against the
Appellant for exercising his legal rights in the courts by criminalizing him
and preventing him from gainful employment, for example V.A. Vegetable Juice,
in Bedford Park, Il. Mars M&M Candy, Schiller Park, Il., Chicago Heights
Steel, Chicago, Heights Il., Ford Motor Co. East Chg. Torrance Plant, City of Chg.,
Dept. of Labor, City of Chg. Iron Workers all of these jobs were applied to in
the last 4 months backgrounds never came back and cleared due to the unlawful
warrant issued by the racist Judge Pamela Loza.
- A federal
court always has the authority to determine its own jurisdiction. A
federal court has the authority to determine whether it has jurisdiction
to hear a particular case. United States v. Ruiz, 536 U.S. 622, 628 (2002)
(citing United States v. Mine Workers of Am., 330 U.S. 258, 291 (1947)). •
In re Dairy Mart Convenience Stores, Inc., 411 F.3d 367, 374 (2d Cir.
2005) (quoting United States v. United Mine Workers of Am., 330 U.S. 258,
292 (1947) (“‘[A] court has jurisdiction to determine its own jurisdiction.’”).
- See
also Knudsen v. Liberty Mut. Ins. Co., 411 F.3d 805, 808 (7th Cir. 2005)
(quoting United States v. Ruiz, 536 U.S. 622, 628 (2002)) (“‘[A] federal
court always has jurisdiction to determine its own jurisdiction.’”). In re
Bunyan, 354 F.3d 1149, 1152 (9th Cir. 2004) (citing United States v. Ruiz,
536 U.S. 622, 628 (2002)) (“A federal court always has jurisdiction to
determine its own jurisdiction.”). 13D Charles Alan Wright, Arthur R.
Miller, Edward H. Cooper, Richard D. Freer, Federal Practice and Procedure
§ 3536, p. 1 (“‘Jurisdiction to determine jurisdiction’ refers to the
power of a court to determine whether it has authority over the parties to
and the subject matter of a suit.”) [here in after 13D Wright &
Miller]. 4 B. Unique Aspects of Jurisdiction in Practice The issue of
federal subject matter jurisdiction “concerns the fundamental
constitutional question of the allocation of judicial power between the
federal and state governments.”
- Wright
& Miller § 3522, p. 125. Because of these weighty concerns,
jurisdiction is a unique issue in the federal courts. Below, this outline
notes five ways that adjudication of jurisdiction is different than
adjudication of substantive issues. 1. A federal court must generally
determine whether it has jurisdiction at the outset of litigation and must
always make this determination before deciding the merits of a particular
case. A court “generally may not rule on the merits of a case without
first determining that it has jurisdiction over the category of claim in
the suit (subject-matter jurisdiction) . . . .” Sinochem Int’l Co. Ltd. v.
Malaysia Int’l Shipping Corp., 549 U.S. 422, 430–31 (2007) (declining to
address jurisdiction and holding that district court had authority to
dismiss action on forum non conveniens grounds before considering the
merits) (citing Steel Co. v. Citizens for a Better Env’t, 523 U.S. 83,
93–102 (1998) (rejecting doctrine of “hypothetical jurisdiction” that
would allow a court to rule on issues of law before adjudicating jurisdiction)).
• Toeller v. Wis. Dep’t of Corrections, 461 F.3d 871, 873 (7th Cir. 2006)
(“Before considering the merits of [the] appeal, we must resolve a
preliminary question of appellate jurisdiction.”). Jurisdiction Upheld •
Morrison v. Nat’l Australia Bank Ltd., 547 F.3d 167 (2d Cir. 2008), aff’d
130 S. Ct. 2869 (2010) (quoting Arar v. Ashcroft, 532 F.3d 157, 168 (2d
Cir.2008)) (“‘Determining the existence of subject matter jurisdiction is
a threshold inquiry and a claim is properly dismissed for lack of subject
matter jurisdiction under Rule 12(b) (1) when the district court lacks the
statutory or constitutional power to adjudicate it.’”). Jurisdiction
Lacking Marley v. United States, 567 F.3d 1030, 1034 (9th Cir. 2008) (“As
a threshold matter, we must decide whether we have jurisdiction . . . .”).
• 13 Wright & Miller § 3522, p. 147. See also a. Exception: In some
circumstances (lack of personal jurisdiction and forum non conveniens) a
court can dismiss a case on non-merits grounds before deciding whether jurisdiction
exists.
- Although courts must generally decide a
jurisdictional issue before deciding the merits of a case, “a federal
court has leeway ‘to choose among threshold grounds for denying audience
to 5 a case on the merits.’” Sinochem Int’l Co. Ltd. v. Malaysia Int’l
Shipping Corp., 549 U.S. 422, 431 (2007) (quoting Ruhgras AG v. Marathon
Oil Co., 526 U.S. 574, 585 (1999)). So, while a court cannot consider the
merits of a case before deciding a jurisdictional issue, a court can
decide a case on non-merits grounds before deciding whether jurisdiction
exists. Id. The Supreme Court has recognized two “threshold grounds” on
which a court can resolve a case without addressing subject matter
jurisdiction: (1) personal jurisdiction and (2) forum non conveniens.
Ruhgras AG v. Marathon Oil Co., 526 U.S. 574 (1999) (“Customarily, a
federal court first resolves doubts about its jurisdiction over the
subject matter, but there are circumstances in which a district court
appropriately accords priority to a personal jurisdiction inquiry.”);
Sinochem Int’l Co. Ltd. v. Malaysia Int’l Shipping Corp., 549 U.S. 422,
425 (2007) (applying exception to forum non conveniens).
- The Ninth Circuit has held that the
personal-jurisdiction exception to the jurisdiction-first rule is limited
to cases where deciding the personal jurisdiction issue would result in
the end of the case. Special Invs., Inc. v. Aero Air, Inc., 360 F.3d 989,
994–95 (9th Cir. 2004). In Special Investments, the court held that it was
improper for the district court to dismiss an action against a defendant
when other defendants remained without first deciding whether it had
subject matter jurisdiction. Id. The D.C. Circuit has provided a test to
determine when a court can decide an issue before adjudicating
jurisdiction: a court can decide an issue before jurisdiction if the issue
does not involve “an exercise of a court’s law-declaring power . . . .”
See Kramer v. Gates, 481 F.3d 788 (D.C. Cir. 2007).
11. A court exercises its law-declaring power
when a ruling has an effect on “primary conduct.” See id. (citing Hanna v.
Plumer, 380 U.S. 460, 475 (1965) (Harlan, J., concurring) (classifying rules
affecting “primary decisions respecting human conduct” as substantive for
purposes of Erie R.R. Co. v. Tompkins, 304 U.S. 64 (1938)).
12.
That said judge violated the oath of her duties recognizing she had
jurisdiction as she “Trespassed upon the Laws” by corroborating her role
in an “Organized Conspiracy” engaging in “Treason” 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, 1 Pet. 328, 340, 26 U.S. 328, 340 (1828)
The
U.S. Supreme Court, in Scheuer v. Rhodes, 416 U.S. 232, 94 S. Ct. 1683, 1687
(1974) stated that "when a state officer acts under a state law in a
manner violative of the Federal Constitution, he "comes into conflict with
the superior authority of that Constitution, and he is in that case stripped of
his official or representative character and is subjected in his person to the
consequences of his individual conduct. The State has no power to impart to him
any immunity from responsibility to the supreme authority of the United States."
[Emphasis supplied in original]. By law, a judge is a state officer. The
judge then acts not as a judge, but as a private individual (in his person).
13. Plaintiff
stated, Page 3, Par 14-18 from the transcript, “And
the reason why I’m here is that me, the defendant is petitioning rule to show
cause remanding Circuit Court judge Pamela Elizabeth Loza and attorneys are
trespassing upon the law, corroboration in an organized chain conspiracy of
treason, fraud of all sorts..” Line
19 Judge Coleman stated, “I need to stop you right there”, Line 23-24, She stated, “Okay, I have read, read some of it. I read
you even though it looked like a filing” Page 4, Par 11-12, Judge
Coleman stated, “when you dealt with
them, were they – they were judges and it was in court, is that correct?”
Plaintiff’s reply Line 13, “Yes
Ma’am” Lines 14-16, Judge Coleman
stated, “All right. Well, they have
immunity. You cannot sue them for anything that happened in the case. You can’t
sue them personally” Line 18-19
she further stated, “So they cannot---I
have dismiss to them out. I have no jurisdiction over them. Do you understand?”
Judge Coleman
stated, Page 6, Par 2 “You understand I
answer to the U.S. Supreme Court.”
The District
court closed her eyes to the “VOID ORDERS” entered against the Plaintiff
and entered an order described as a nullity.
14. In addition, when judges act when they
do not have jurisdiction to act, or they enforce a void order (an order issued
by a judge without jurisdiction), they become trespassers of the law, and are
engaged in treason.
A-
Pursuant to {28 USCA 144, 455 (B) (1)} Sufficient for Removal, conduct which does not constitute a
criminal offense may be sufficiently violative of the Judicial Canons to
warrant removal for cause. Napolitano v Ward, 457 F 2d 279 (7th Cir.), cert denied,
409 U.S. 1037, 93 S. Ct. 512, 34 L. Ed. 2d 486 (1972), that said District Court judge methodically violated her oath by stating
said Plaintiff dismissed his own case when in fact Page 4, Lines 18,
19, Judge Coleman stated, “I have
dismiss to them out. I have no jurisdiction over them. Do you understand?”
- That Page 6, Lines 12-17, Judge stated,
“You have crossed over into the
Federal court, and I deal with national issues. I don’t deal with
domestic relations and child support unless it’s a usually international
case or maybe even people in maybe different states, but usually not
someone coming to me directly from the Circuit Court of Cook County”.
- That
Page 7, Lines 3-6, Plaintiff
stated, “Which I don’t understand
according to law that they denied my written mandamus. But the thing
about that is it was, it was not signed by a judge”.
- That
Page 7, Lines 7-8, 10-14 Judge
stated, “I’m not the Illinois
Supreme Court.” “And I don’t tell them how ----and usually if they don’t
sign something, and I don’t know if they had a signature on that,
sometimes they issue orders that are not opinions that they can sign. I
don’t know. I’ve never been on the Illinois Supreme Court, and I don’t
work for them”.
- That
from the Complaint captioned Complaint of Civil Rights Violations,
Trespassing of the Laws, Treason et al. said June 6, 2017, Ex’s 1-3 orders from the Sup. Ct. attached as exhibits
corroborating said assertions not signed by any judge but cc’d to all
parties.
Pursuant to Sup Ct. Rule 272 “if at
the time of announcing final judgment
the judge requires the submission of a form of written judgment to be
signed by the judge et al” the judgment becomes final only when the signed
judgment is filed— Judges are bound by this rule before their court
orders are valid;
- In
furtherance to the aforementioned, Plaintiff had to appear before a
probationary officer August 30, 2017 where his prior caseworker Claudia
Swan had taken a medical leave and Robert Eizenga was the new case worker
and discovered Judge Thomas Panici
had charged Plaintiff with a DUI case # 15 C 660004301 12-18-14 and 12-17-15 District 6 room 103,
Plaintiff not only never appeared before this judge but he does not drink
alcohol;
- That
on the same related case number SS16600043-00 there was a fine
charge of $1200.00 Seq# 001 24 months a clerk by the name of Thomas
entered this information;
- That
as a result to the terrorist acts perpetrated at the Plaintiff by
Democrats organized by powerful men and women racist in nature and
spirit, hereto attached Gr Ex B
Motion for Supervisory Order by Patricia Mysza, Deputy Defender, for the
Office of the State Appellate Defender;
- Said
Deputy Defender stated, Par 6,
Page 3 “He should not be denied
his right to an appeal due to a series of bureaucratic errors that were
not his fault”
- Citing
Canon 2A the court noted, “[a] court’s indifference to clearly stated
rules breeds disrespect for and discontent with our justice system.
Government cannot demand respect of the laws by its citizens when its
tribunals ignore those very same laws”)
- That said District Court judge had her Deputy Clerk to
notify the Plaintiff twice at his home making sure he appeared in court
at 8:30am but never notified any of the Defendants to appear before her;
- The District Court demonstrating an act
of Improprieties in an attempt to aid and assist said
Defendant’s named in Suit, In Re Judge No. 93-154, 440 S.E.2d

Commission on Judicial Performance, 33 Cal. 3d 359, 657 P. 2d 372, 377,
188 Cal. Rptr. 880 (1983).
- Section 1983 of U.S.C.S. contemplates the
depravation of Civil Rights through the Unconstitutional Application of a
Law by conspiracy or otherwise. Mansell v. Saunders (CA
5 F 1A) 372 F 573, especially if the conspiracy was actually carried into
effect, where an action is for a conspiracy to interfere with Civil
Rights under 42 U.S.C.S. 1985 (3), or for the depravation of such rights
under 42 U.S.C.S. 1983, if the conspiracy was actually carried into
effect and plaintiff was thereby deprived of any rights, privileges, or
immunities secured by the United States Constitution and Laws, the gist
of the action may be treated as one for the depravation of rights under
42 U.S.C.S. 1983, Lewis v. Brautigam (CA 5 F
1a) 227 F 2d 124, 55 Alr 2d 505, John W. Strong, 185, 777-78 (4 th
ed. 1992)
- That the Judge erred considerably when it received
notice and knowledge of other Judges complicit in a Criminal Conspiracy
failed to follow Canon Ethics Leslie W. Abramson, 25 Hofstra L.
Rev. 751 (1997). The Judges Ethical Duty to Report Misconduct by Other
Judges and Lawyers and its effect on Judicial Independence.
- That
because many white nationalist have infiltrated the Democratic party and
has methodically overturned the legal tribunal recruiting the necessary
persons who will keep their mouths shut and continue the terrorist mayhem
on innocent citizens fighting injustice in the courts;
The
Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals held that the Circuit Court of Cook County is a criminal enterprise. U.S.
v. Murphy, 768 F.2d 1518,
1531 (7th Cir. 1985).
The United States Supreme Court
recently 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, case
No. 96-6133 (June 9, 1997).
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.
The
criminal activities that the Federal Courts found in the Circuit Court of Cook
County still exist, and are today under the care, custody and control of Judge
Timothy C. Evans (Chief Judge). The Circuit Court of Cook County remains
a criminal enterprise.
Defendants/Appellees have not
raised any affirmative defenses and have been properly Noticed pursuant to Rule
56.
Summary judgment is appropriate when the pleadings, depositions,
admissions and affidavits, viewed in a light most favorable to the movant or non-movant
fail to establish a genuine issue of material fact, thereby
Entitling the moving party to
judgment as a matter of law.
The purpose of summary judgment is not to try a question of
fact, but simply to
Determine whether one exists.
When the party moving for summary judgment supplies
evidentiary facts which,
If not contradicted,
would entitle him to judgment, the opposing party cannot
Rely upon his
complaint or answer alone to raise issues of material fact. A counter
Affidavit is
necessary to refute evidentiary facts properly asserted by affidavit
Supporting the motion
or else the facts are deemed admitted.
Here, Plaintiff has supplied
affidavits, Certified Court transcripts and other evidentiary material that
establishes all of the elements necessary to entitle it to recovery under the
parties’ agreements, including the amount of damages. Defendants have failed to
submit any evidence in opposition to the Motion or Order to raise any genuine
issues of material fact. Thus summary judgment was proper.
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,
1 Pet. 328, 340, 26 U.S. 328, 340 (1828)
When judges act when they do not
have jurisdiction to act, or they enforce a void order (an order issued by a
judge without jurisdiction), they become trespassers of the law, and are
engaged in treason (see below).
The U.S. Supreme Court, in Scheuer
v. Rhodes, 416 U.S. 232, 94 S. Ct. 1683, 1687 (1974) stated that
"when a state officer acts under a state law in a manner violative of the
Federal Constitution, he "comes into conflict with the superior authority
of that Constitution, and he is in that case stripped of his official or
representative character and is subjected in his person to the
consequences of his individual conduct. The State has no power to impart to him
any immunity from responsibility to the supreme authority of the United
States." [Emphasis supplied in original].
By law, a judge is a state
officer as in this case Federal officers.
The judge then acts not as a
judge, but as a private individual (in his person).
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the
Seventh Circuit held that prisoners who are not represented by counsel in
federal civil rights litigation are entitled to receive notice of the
consequences of failing to respond with affidavit to motions for summary
judgment that are supported by affidavit. This opinion established a new rule
in the circuit.
In this case, art Indiana state prisoner filed a civil rights action against several prison officials. The defendants responded by filing a motion to dismiss, "or in the alternative for summary judgment." The defendants' motion was supported by affidavits that contradicted the prisoner's allegations. When the prisoner failed to respond, the district court dismissed the complaint.
In a thoughtful opinion, Judge Posner noted that "the purpose of a motion for summary judgment is to head off a full-scale trial by conducting a trial in miniature, on affidavits, so that not submitting counter affidavits is the equivalent of not presenting any evidence at trial." In the process, he construed Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 12 and 56 to require a "reasonable opportunity" to rebut motions for summary judgment, and that a "reasonable opportunity presupposes notice."
In a case where prisoner plaintiff is appearing pro se, the court issued a rule of decision that requires any motions for summary judgment to include the text of Rule 56(c) and a "statement in ordinary English" alerting the prisoner to the consequences of such a motion. If counsel fails to provide the notice, the burden shifts to the trial court. The judgment in this case was vacated and remanded. See: Lewis v. Faulkner, 689 F.2d 100 (7th Cir. 1982).

The lack of explicit notice would not be
troubling if it were obvious to a layman that when his opponent files a motion
for summary judgment supported by affidavits he must file his own affidavits
contradicting his opponent's if he wants to preserve factual issues for trial.
But this aspect of federal civil practice is contrary to lay intuition, which
is that the first step in a civil litigation is the filing of a complaint, the
second the filing of an answer, and the third the trial of the case. The
defendants here filed no answer. Their first pleading was the motion. It would
not be realistic to impute to a prison inmate (unless, like the "former
law professor" of whom this court spoke in Maclin v. Freake, 650 F.2d 885,
888 (7th Cir. 1981) (per curiam), the prisoner has legal training) an
instinctual awareness that the purpose of a motion for summary judgment is to
head off a full-scale trial by conducting a trial in miniature, on affidavits,
so that not submitting counter affidavits is the equivalent of not presenting
any evidence at trial. We credit the plaintiff with knowing that if his case
was tried and he failed to present evidence he would lose. This much he should
know without having read the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. But we do not
think he can be charged with the further knowledge that a failure to offer
affidavits when his opponent files something called "Motion To Dismiss, Or
In The Alternative, For Summary Judgment" is an equivalent default.
Since few prisoners have a
legal background, we think it appropriate to lay down a general rule that a
prisoner who is a plaintiff in a civil case and is not represented by counsel is
entitled to receive notice of the consequences of failing to respond with
affidavits to a motion for summary judgment. Such a rule, already adopted in
two other circuits, see Hudson v. Hardy, 412 F.2d 1091, 1094 (D.C. Cir. 1968),
and Roseboro v. Garrison, 528 F.2d 309 (4th Cir. 1975), is a natural evolution
of our own frequently expressed concern with this problem. See, e.g., Madyun v.
Thompson, 657 F.2d 868, 876-77 (7th Cir. 1981). It goes without saying that the
rule applies with equal force when affidavits are submitted in support of a
motion to dismiss under Rule 12(b) (6). Indeed, applied to such a motion our
new rule has a firmer basis in the text of the Federal Rules than it has as
applied to Rule 56 motions proper, since as noted earlier Rule 12(b) explicitly
requires a "reasonable opportunity" for the opponent to counter the
movant's affidavits. However, for the reasons stated earlier we are satisfied
that the same requirement is implicit in Rule 56, and hence that the rule we
announce today is a proper interpretation of Rule 56 in the special
circumstances presented by prisoner civil rights litigation. We leave for
another day the possible extension of our new rule to other classes of pro se
civil litigants, including applicants for habeas corpus.
We are naturally reluctant
to impose additional duties on our overburdened district courts. But we trust
that counsel for the defendants in prisoner civil rights cases in this circuit
will lift this new burden from the judges' shoulders, by henceforth including
in any motion for summary judgment in a case where the plaintiff is not
assisted by counsel a short and plain statement that any factual assertion in
the movant's affidavits will be accepted by the district judge as being true
unless the plaintiff submits his own affidavits or other documentary evidence
contradicting the assertion. The text of Rule 56(e) should be part of the
notice, but in addition to rather than instead of the statement in ordinary
English that we are requiring.
If counsel for defendants
fail to provide the required information it will be the district judge's
responsibility to do so, but we hope this will rarely be necessary. Most
defendants in prisoners' rights cases in this circuit are represented by one of
the three state attorneys general in the circuit, who we are sure will
cooperate in implementing the new rule with minimum inconvenience to our
harassed district judges.
The judgment of the
district court entered on the defendants' motion for summary judgment is
vacated and the case remanded for further proceedings consistent with this
opinion.
Vacated and Remanded.
Pursuant
to other Federal judges engaging in Treason “Trespassing upon the Laws” No. 11-3481 JOE LOUIS
LAWRENCE, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. SECRETARY
OF STATE, et a!., Defendants-Appellees.
Judges acting as “Private Citizens” Kenneth F. Ripple, Ann Claire
Williams and Diane S. Sykes lodged a similar slanderous defamation approach to
Joe Louis Lawrence, Appellant in that case, stated “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.
That Gr Ex 4,
validate the verity of many “Democratic Private Citizens” perpetrating as
judges colluded in unison as they committed “Treason” and “Trespassed upon the
Laws” and violated Appellants’ Civil Rights where he was locked up 5 times for
allegedly owing child support on a court order that had no judges or attorneys signatures
case #88 D 079012 and was unlawfully removed from his places of employment as
money was extorted from his wages.
That Ex 5,
Demonstrate the racial hatred and Demonic episodes “Private Citizens” engaged
in making sure an innocent Appellant life was destroyed when a Certified Court
Order was signed by a judge (September 17, 1987) validating the case was
Dismissed with 2 sets of Paternity tests that was altered to protect the
Policeman responsible for impregnating his minor biological daughter
The aforementioned judges
falsified reasons so as to protect all Democrats involved as said judges Diane
P. Wood, Chief Judge, Daniel A. Manion and Ilana Diamond Rovner are doing in this
matter.
That Appellant file a
Motion for Disqualification of Judge –Personal Bias or Prejudice {28 USCA 144,
455 {B} {1} Vacate Order of May 3, 2018 & May 9 due to Federal Clerk
Committing Fraud Entering Court Order in Computer Unlawfully, (Filed May 11,
2018) DL is on the file stamp. Case #16
CV 7434
A-
A Clerk in the Seventh Circuit mailed the Motion back to the
Appellant trying cover up the crimes of mail fraud, Judicial “Treason” and
other felonies being committed.
B-
A Pro Se clerk returned the said Motion claiming Appellant had
no case but it was not signed.
C-
That said Democrats have exhausted every method of deception
humanly impossible making sure said Pro Se Appellant not receive Equal
Protection of the laws by misappropriating the laws not germane to the issues
put before this court.
"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).
“Lawrence filed this suit pro se in federal
court alleging that the child support order, the
driver' s-license revocation, and the dismissal of his civil suit, were all
caused by a broad conspiracy of Illinois state officials, and
that their actions had violated his civil rights.” Not one Democratic official
or attorney ever DENIED or OBJECTED to any of the Affidavits, Motions put
before the courts because they were expecting the Seventh Circuit of Democratic
judges to protect and “Trespass upon the Laws” demonstrating their Terrorist
Control over all legal tribunals denying and every document Appellant filed and
presented blowing the whistle on Democratic Terrorism controlling the courts.
Respectfully, Submitted,

WHEREFORE the aforementioned
reasons Plaintiff respectfully Prays for the Relief
1.
For an Order Vacating Remand Judgment Instanter.
2.
For an Order Granting
Summary Judgment pursuant to Federal Rule 56.
- For an Order
Transferring this case outside of the jurisdiction of the (Seventh
Circuit) Federal Judges engaging in “Treason” “Trespassing upon the Laws”
pursuant to Rule 26 it implements the Breyer Committee’s
recommended use of transfers. Breyer
Committee Report, 239 F.R.D. at 214-15.
Rule 26 authorizes the
transfer of a complaint proceeding to another judicial council selected by the
Chief Justice. Such transfers may be appropriate, for example, in the case of a
serious complaint where there are multiple disqualifications among the original
council, where the issues are highly visible and a local disposition may weaken
public confidence in the process, where internal tensions arising in the
council as a result of the complaint render disposition by a less involved
council appropriate, or where a complaint calls into question policies or
governance of the home court of appeals et al.
That the present judges in the Seventh Circuit read evidence of Cook County judges violating the RICO ACT, the 7th Cir. Held that the Cook County Courts were a
Criminal enterprise. U.S. v. Murphy,
768 F. 2d 1518, 1531 where precedent was enacted by Judges Frank H.
Easterbrook, Richard D. Cudahy and former Chief judge Luther Merritt Swygert;
That every judge in the Seventh Circuit closed their eyes to every complaint said
Petitioner put before them on appeal in affidavits validating the verity of
judges committing Treason Trespassing upon the laws of the United States
Constitution engaging in “WAR”
against the United States Constitution making every order rendered against the
Petitioner. If a judge does not fully
comply with the Constitution, then his orders are void, In re Sawyer, 124 U.S.
200 (1888), he or she is without jurisdiction, and he/she has engaged in an act
or acts of treason;
