Responding to a supporter today on her web site, Dr. Orly Taitz, Esq.:

I will clearly appeal this mockery of justice. Judge Land was totally dishonest and misstated and misrepresented 99% of what was written in the pleadings and what transpired during the hearings. He broke and violated each and every rule in the book: his own local rules, clear precedents, rule of law and Constitution in order to appease this Kenyan dictator and his regime. Will the Circuit Court of Appeals be less corrupt, remains to be seen. We have seen total dereliction of duties by so many in the Federal government, nothing will surprise me. Normally I would be entitled to file a motion before the trial judge to Alter the Judgment, in this matter of sanctions, however I believe it might be futile to go to the same judge and it might be better to go directly to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals or Supreme Court. Land has contradicted himself time and again. On one hand he is stating that punishment would require another judge to look at the record, however he refuses to recuse himself while imposing $20,000 sanctions without giving me sufficient time to respond, to request a hearing, to show that rule 11 sanctions are not only not warranted but constitute complete travesty of justice. Rule 11 sanctions are applied when an attorney didn’t do sufficient inquiry, sufficient investigation prior to filing a case. Readers of this website know that nobody on this planet did as much inquiry as I did, prior to filing this case. This is appalling. What is more appalling, is that Land is saying that he will give this $20,000 to some private charity that supposedly benefits the military. What does he think? Does he think that each and every member of US military is a complete idiot and cannot see through this thinly veiled attempt to appease the military. Land is de facto telling each and every member of US military: “I will take all your constitutional rights away from you. You have no right to question any unlawful order. You have to act as a dumb robot obeying each and every order coming from this Kenyan dictator, however I will throw you a bone, I will take $20,000 from your attorney and will give it to some foundation. Take a bone and be a good and obedient dogie, be quiet.”

Here's a few more munchies. I found these at DU. I wouldn't EVER go to her infected web site, but someone at DU had the guts to do it.

FROM COLUMBUS GA Posted on | October 17, 2009 | No Comments Hi Orly,

I am a resident of Columbus, GA and a true patriot. I would like to help you to help this country! I have been keeping up with Judge C. Lands and the $20,000 . Unbelievable! Anyway, I am a registered Nurse…Clinical Coordinator at St Francis Hospital ER. I have contact with many….espcially Doc’s, Medical Professionals, and the public.

The more I read about Obama and this Administration…the more amazed I become as to how this con-man could ever hold the highest position in the world!

Please mail me or call if I can be of any assistance.

Thanks for all your hard work. PLEASE don’t GIVE UP!!

I need help in putting together $20,000 . I need help in raising the whole Fort Benning in outrage for what was done to me. I have to file another case on behalf of a number of members of military, particularly ones that are about to be deployed, to show them that they can’t break us they can’t scare us with their outrageous sanctions. There is less chance that they will retaliate, if a number of members of military will join. After these sanctions I can demand a different judge because this one is obviously biased. No member of US military can take orders from this Kenyan- Indonesian dictator without violating his oath to protect the Constitution of United States of America. We need to remove from office this fraud and tyrant and everybody else in the government, who was aiding and abeting him. All of them will need to be prosecuted for aiding and abeting this massive fraud and treason. I need more plaintiffs with strong standing in different states. Actually, any citizen can be a plaintiff. What is the most important, is to find judges, who have guts, who have a backbone, and who weren’t bought and paid for with promises of advancement, seat on a Supreme Court one day or cushy job for their friends and relatives.

Category: Uncategorized I NEED HELP IN STOPPING THIS MAN AND GETTING HIM PSYCHIATRIC CARE BEFORE HE BECOMES VIOLENT Posted on | October 17, 2009 | No Comments

This man is sending to me hundreds of comments like this. His IP was traced to 2 different locations: one is on the border of Seattle WA and Canada and another in TX. I will be speaking in TX tomorrow. This man is clearly obsessed with hatred and can do anything. I need all the help I can get in ascertaining who he is. Fred Jones might not be his real name. I need to know how he looks like, so I can better protect myself.I need people to report him wherever he is for cyber attacks and cyber harassment. He might be a brain washed patsy or heavily medicated person, whom someone wants to use to get rid of me. I might need some personal security at this meeting tomorrow in Houston. Keep in mind- this might be a woman, who assumed a man’s name, it might be a group of Obama supporters blogging under one name.

(followed by many profanity laced comments by a correspondent named Fred Jones)

I called Lord Mockton at spp institute. His aid Bob Ferguson said that they deal only with global warming and will not be involved. These aids are often placed in key positions to sway the leaders. Can someone reach Lord Mockton bypassing this sold out aid.

In re to the clerk, who worked for Bob Bauer, Obama’s lawyer and now someone got this person position with judge Carter, I was asked if he started after I filed with Carter. I don’t know the answer to this one yet, all i know is that this atty is from Seattle WA, hot bed of Socialists and Communists,I wouldn’t put anything pass that crowd.

I am currently looking for plaintiffs with standing in DC, Eastern District of VA, ID, Eastern District of TX, OK

Charles Lincoln at Tierra Limpia

Dr. Orly Taitz, Esquire, has agreed to serve as counsel for our Class Action Lawsuit against Wells Fargo in the United States District Court for the District of Idaho, and she has also signed on as counsel in Palm Beach, Florida (United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida) against U.S. Bank, a suit which also questions the bias, independence, and/or partiality or control of the Florida state judiciary. These two suits will now become the focal point of our attentions.

There is some merit to the "show us the note" thing. Turning it into a class action suit is as stupid as you can get, because the dickheads at the banks WILL find the notes. It's only if you surprise them that it works. Those notes exist.

#33. To: Robin (#32)

LOL!!!!! What idiot would go near her now!?!?

Probably nobody. Doc 18 and 19 are from yesterday.

Doc 18 is Orly's application to be substitute counsel (or whatever one may call this).

Doc 19 is Wells Fargo Objection. Exhibit A is a copy of the 43 page Order of Judge Land.

At 2-3:

Plaintiff now files a Motion for Continuance of the hearing currently set for October 27, 2009, and asks for two additional items of relief: (a) an additional extension of time to October 30, 2009 in which to file a reply memorandum; and (b) an "at least temporary" waiver of the requirement that she obtain local counsel to be admitted pro hac vice consistent with the Court's Local Rules.

Wells Fargo objects to Plaintiffs request for a continuance on the basis that Plaintiff has already obtained a significant delay in the time ordinarily allowed to seek a temporary restraining order, and that any further delay will only result in unwarranted costs and expenses incurred by Wells Fargo. Wells Fargo additionally objects to any request that Plaintiff s proposed counsel be excused from the Local Rule's requirement of obtaining local counsel for admission pro hac vice on the basis that any such waiver is also likely to increase the costs of defense of this frivolous motion and action.

At 4-5

WELLS FARGO OBJECTS TO ANY WAIVER OF LOCAL RULES FOR PRO HAC VICE ADMISSION

The admission of a lawyer pro hac vice is governed by the Court's Local Rules, and it is the rare case where a litigant would ordinarily inject itself into the Court's consideration of a request to modify the application of those Local Rules. Given the history of Ms. Taitz in appearing pro hac vice in other actions, however, Wells Fargo must object to any waiver of this Court's Local Rules requirement that she obtain local counsel as a condition of pro hac vice admission.

The Court's Local Rule on pro hac vice admission, by requiring local counsel, serves several admirable purposes. Not the least of these is a local contact for service, but also a local contact who is familiar with filing procedures, Local Rules, and protocol. All of these things serve to allow the efficient administration of a case, and accordingly minimize the cost of litigation. The participation of local counsel also tends to moderate the behavior of those who

would otherwise feel little concern for the consequences of frivolous claims or conduct if they knew they would not be soon appearing again in a local venue. When the Court is satisfied that a counsel admitted pro hac vice is capable of practicing without such local advice and counsel, the rule requiring appearance by local counsel at all hearings can certainly be waived.

Ms. Taitz has a troubled history of pro hac vice appearances. She was recently sanctioned by Judge Clay D. Land of the Middle District of Georgia (Columbus Division) and fined $20,000 for her conduct in a case where she was admitted pro hac vice and received a waiver of the local counsel requirement. A true and correct copy of this decision is attached to the Affidavit of Kenneth C. Howell Regarding Motion for Continuance, filed concurrently herewith.

Judge Land specifically rued the waiver of local counsel requirement, noting that it "was a mistake as counsel abused her pro hac vice privileges." See Affidavit of Kenneth C. Howell Regarding Motion for Continuance, Exhibit A at p. 7-8. Ms. Taitz's abuse of her pro hac vice privileges in the case before Judge Land in Georgia foreshadow her expected abuse in this action given the meritless claims advanced by Plaintiff. This is particularly true with respect to the present Motion for a TRO given that the relief requested is moot, and given that Plaintiff is unable to meet the standards for granting a TRO.

Any granting of a waiver of the Local Rules' requirements of local counsel is likely to have the direct effect on Wells Fargo of a substantial increase in the cost of defense of this action, and will result in additional delay in the resolution of this action. Given that Plaintiff's prospective counsel is already unable to attend to this long-scheduled hearing, it is reasonable to expect that her involvement in "other high-profile litigation" will cause additional delays - and additional cost to Wells Fargo -- throughout the course of this litigation.

Yeah... agreed. But this appears that you sign over your property to Charles Lincoln so he can defend it from foreclosure pro se. In the meantime, he sort of makes believe he owns it and can live in it or rent it out until they evict him and auction or sell your house.

Hal Kuder signed over his property to Lincoln for $10. Of course, until the mortgage is paid, the bank retains the title and I rather doubt Kuder can absolve his obligations by transferring those obligations to Charles Lincoln.

An interesting note from NYT

surprising smackdown occurred on Oct. 9 in federal bankruptcy court in the Southern District of New York. Ruling that a lender, PHH Mortgage, hadn’t proved its claim to a delinquent borrower’s home in White Plains, Judge Robert D. Drain wiped out a $461,263 mortgage debt on the property. That’s right: the mortgage debt disappeared, via a court order.

So the ruling may put a new dynamic in play in the foreclosure mess: If the lender can’t come forward with proof of ownership, and judges don’t look kindly on that, then borrowers may have a stronger hand to play in court and, apparently, may even be able to stay in their homes mortgage-free.

The reason that notes have gone missing is the huge mass of mortgage securitizations that occurred during the housing boom. Securitizations allowed for large pools of bank loans to be bundled and sold to legions of investors, but some of the nuts and bolts of the mortgage game — notes, for example — were never adequately tracked or recorded during the boom. In some cases, that means nobody truly knows who owns what.

The first case of Lincoln v. Northwest shows a trick I had not seen before. Lincoln paid the filing fee, then stopped payment on the check, engaged in a paper drill for over two months, and finally let the case be dismissed for non-payment of the filing fee.

I guess the Idaho District Court has already had a Charles Lincoln experience.

DOCKET REPORT Lincoln v. Northwest Trustee Services et al, 1-09-cv-00163 filed 4/09/2009 dismissed 6/30/2009.

On 6/4/2009, DOC 19 shows that Lincoln paid the filing fee on 4/9/2009, and shows that he put a stop payment on the check. Thus, DOC 19 ordered him to pay the $350 filing fee and a $45 stop payment fee (or file to proceed in forma pauperis) or the case would be dismissed.

On 6/29/2009, DOC 23 shows the Court dismissed for failure to pay the filing fee.

The New Birther Fantasy: Kenya Newspaper Called Obama “Kenyan Born” Back In 2004

by Doug Mataconis @ 5:14 pm on October 16, 2009.

The birthers are chasing another red herring in the shape of a June 2004 article from a newspaper in Kenya that referred then Illinois State Senator as “Kenyan born:”

[...]

Now, the birthers are claiming in their various online forums that this is an Associated Press article based on the initials AP appearing at the bottom of the article. However, a search of the Associated Press archives for an articles containing the words “Kenyan” and “Obama” from any date prior to June 28, 2004 (the date after the article was published) reveals no articles at all.

Clearly, this was an article written by a writer for some paper in Kenya and not based on any credible news sources.

Try again, guys.

The article is not even close to AP style, which for one thing would lead off with the city in which the event took place or where the article was written, if different, and would also have a byline. Just for starters.

That anyone would submit an unsourced, non-byline article from an obscure African newspaper as evidence is just silly.

What probably happened is a local African writer rewrote an AP story so they wouldn't have to pay AP. He or she evidently knew Obama's father was born in Kenya and may have just assumed that Obama was too. It was clearly thrown in there to give the story local interest.

The whole thing is unpersuasive.

It is not from the newspaper source directly but from an archive on the Wayback Machine. The submitted page source code claims it was archived on June 27, 2004. The page links go to pages months in the future. It appears the page itself cannot be authentic.

Doug Mataconis confirmed that there was no such article by AP.

They misspell Obama's first name as "Barrack." (first line and under pic)

The pic is nh-obama.jpg - possibly from New Hampshire and not Chicago 2004.

The article and the pic are unaccredited.

They use "US Senate" which violates AP style which would be "U.S. Senate."
