CALL TO REMOVE ALL SANTA CLARA COUNTY JUDGES ATTENDING HOLIDAY LUNCHEON HOSTED SANTA CLARA COUNTY BAR ASSOCIATION On the Monday before Christmas, the Commission on Judicial Performance, in between their lavish holiday parties, revealed that Judge Persky would not face discipline for his sentencing of Brock Turner, the white Stanford felony convicted rapist, whom Persky ordered to spend just six months in jail. Meanwhile, and unnoticed by mainstream media, a lawsuit was filed in San Francisco, suing the Commission on Judicial Performance for its failure to investigate and discipline Judge Moss, a judge who stole the homes and life savings of elderly citizens, as he confidentially stood behind the cloak of judicial immunity and an emasculated Commission of Judicial Performance, the state funded agency that has been letting crooked judges run amok for decades. This lawsuit, filed by the highly-respected Patrick Evans, seeks to hold judges accountable for criminal conduct that has likely harmed thousands, if not millions, of Californians. SHOULD JUDGES ALSO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR CONDUCT OUTSIDE THE COURTROOM THAT VIOLATES PUBLIC TRUST IN OUR LEGAL SYSTEM? Most people who have faced a judge in traffic court, divorce court, or probate court think the answer to that question should be YES. Santa Clara County Court Clerks and Whistleblowers who are fed up with the outright criminal conduct of family law judges in Santa Clara County decided to expose crooked judges and lawyers in another way. Just after the Thanksgiving holiday, Whistleblowers contacted investigative reporters they knew to be covering Santa Clara County divorce cases for the past year. Whistleblowers slipped the media and advocates information and requested they photograph the Santa Clara County Bar Association holiday luncheon, where judges and lawyers were historically in attendance (as confimed in a court hearing on December 21, 2016 by Judge Towery). On December 2, 2016, when the music started, Santa Clara County judges and lawyers broke out in song and laughed about all the money they earn in Silicon Valley divorce and custody cases. Santa Clara County citizens deal with probate and divorce cases are furious over lyrics, and the judges and lawyers who sang them. Judges Greenwood, Huber, Weinstein, Emede, Pegg, Rudy, Grilli, Towery, Scott and Judge Persky were celebrated by Santa Clara County lawyers who sang about the pleadings they file from their “expensive yachts”, as the judges get them “to the bank tonight “. Ironically they song lyrics include Judge Scott helping to get them a Mercedes Benz. Judge Scott was recently disciplined by the CJP, for all the good it did. Self-represented parents who have been sanctioned and unable to pay their own legal fees based on these same judges were not anused by the song lyrics or by the judges and lawyers who sang them. Many are demanding to know why judges are in attendance at these gatherings. When the judges learned they had been photographed, an all-out war on the media and local court reform advocates ensued. Judge Towery, known to be one of the most corrupt and ethically deficient judges in California, and who organizes court staffers and other judges attending such events through his private Gmail account, denied one advocate back child support owed to her for the past two years, and just four days before Christmas, as Brad Baugh (Santa Clara County Bar Association’s newsletter editor) was able to get Judge Towery to rule that a father, Robert Bassi, didn’t have to pay child support on income he earned from passive dividends, just like Brad Baugh had convinced Judge Grilli she didn’t have to award child support for Iris Cheriton on the $542,000,000 Stanford professor David Cheriton held in stock back in the late 1990’s. The Court of Appeal said Judge Grilli was wrong. As Towery choked down his luncheon on December 2, he did so with little concern over two rulings in cases before him where he rendered one mother and child homeless for the holidays , and sent another 20 month old child to overnight visits with former 49er Ray McDonald, despite McDonald facing criminal rape charges, and charges for violating a restraining order against the child’s mother in Janauary 2017. See the video of Mc Donald beating the mother of his child in 2015, as she held McDonald's two month old son. A private investigation, sparked by a whistleblower tips, shows that Santa Clara County judges, specifically Judge Towery, may be using personal Gmail accounts to not only coordinate these “private events” , but also to collect and provide favors, gifts and kickbacks to lawyers and other judges in a manner that may be outright criminal. It is reported that Towery has accepted free 49er tickets, publishing services and other personal perks using these Gmail accounts, and then issuing rulings in divorce and custody cases without lawfully disclosing conflicts of interests. Court files show Towery, like other Santa Clara County Judges, repeatedly deny fees to the most needy parents and children, while assuring other lawyers like Elise Mitchell and Brad Baugh make millions in fees, converted from community property or unpaid child support. Other Judges like Greenwood, are rewarded in other ways. Following the county Bar luncheon, rumors began to fly that Greenwood would soon be appointed to the Sixth District Court of Appeal, where she can ensure the cycle of cronyism persists. Members of Q Are Demanding Every Judge Attending the Holiday Luncheon Resign or be Removed by the CJP. Since Canon 3 of the Judicial Code of Ethics requires judges to address attorney misconduct, many are saying these judges should all be disciplined for failing to report lawyers who attended, or were connected to the luncheon, given the violation the of public trust the luncheon appears to have caused. Q Members are also demanding the State Bar, or the State Auditor Investigate just how much lawyers and law firms involved in this luncheon have earned in fees and sanctions, as awarded by the judges who were in attendance. Bechtel Family Law Group &TDC ( Table 24) Carpenter & Mayfield ( Table 8) Hoover Krepelka ( Table 16 and 17) BJ Faden (Table 2) Stephen Penn ( Table 20) Kathryn Schlepphorst (Table 19) Travid Whitfield ( Table 23) Morgan Tidalgo ( Table 30) Q Members are also demanding an investigation to determine how much tax payers had to pay for the Santa Clara County Sheriffs who were either in attendance as guests for the event, or as security , where the only security they appear to have provided is investigating members of the media covering the event, not the crooked judges and lawyer who attended it. Please sign the petition demanding the removal of all judges who mocked the poor and our children this holiday season.

San Joaquin county is so corrupt. Nothing has gotten any better even since the horrendously corrupt district attorney John Phillips retired. I knew him through his coke dealer who I had befriended his wife. The things that went on in this County then was a joke, a sick joke but a joke. The card games down at the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Department was an abomination of what they were watching as entertainment find two-way glass. What was done to me who is guilty of nothing even if I did but I was accused of had a corrupt Deputy write an 8-page report against me without ever having any dealings with me, he was a friend of my former husband. He eventually did this to enough people that people and other law enforcement agencies knew of him and warned me to be careful. He was so over the top that he is no longer in law enforcement. It seems they either get rid of them or promote them. Depending on how bad the Scandal is. It sickens me that because I couldn't afford a bottom-feeding attorney until it was just about to late, I did nothing illegal, could have ended up spending a year in Napa. What was I guilty of according to mrs. Collins the head of Mental Health and San Joaquin County... absolutely nothing even if I did what I was accused of it wasn't illegal. All because one deputy did not like me and was a buddy of my former husband. It took almost a year-and-a-half and several thousand dollars later by having someone drive me to court because I was in a wheelchair and everything else involved. Finally I was able to scrape up $2,000 and my attorney who did virtually nothing got it dropped because I didn't do anything wrong and when I explained to my court facilitator what was going on she had me go see a person who is a vendor not a County employee but someone who gets paid by the referral to State I had a mental defect when in fact I had just went through one year of mental and physical testing in order to get on a non FDA-approved drug at Kaiser this clown who saw me for 10 minutes and I had a syndrome that takes a long time to diagnose and there is no cure and suggested I go to classes during the day at a homeless shelter. Mind you I have no immune system at this point so I guess they were trying to kill me and for what? Nothing I did nothing wrong! I was never reimbursed and no one got in trouble but it delayed me from seeking visitation of my precious granddaughters who are my life. We have no grandparent rights in California and you really have no rights if you do not have a dog in the fight meaning and Alive child who is the parent of your grandchildren. While I was fighting off those ridiculous ridiculous ridiculous charges against me my daughter was murdered so when I did finally make it to visitation Court representing myself I was turned down. My daughter's family live next door to me most of their married life except for the very end. I bought all of their vehicles. I bought the house they were living in. I saw my granddaughters daily and was a huge part of their life. I was a chaperone on their field trips Kama I was involved in their scouting and every other aspect of their life and my former husband and I we are very close with them. They never learn to talk and I didn't care. And I didn't have a relationship with them? That's all that had to be stated and I was told no way could I have one day a month to see the children I saw every day. Where is any justice in that. My son-in-law did some Slim Shady illegal stuff during the end of their marriage and I had an inkling of what was going on and he's afraid I'm going to tell his mother that is the reason for my denial and I can have no contact with my granddaughters. My former husband went with me to court and sat in the back and when he heard what the judge said and the judge wasn't finished talking he went out into the Hall and the granddaughters were there and they ran to him and hugged him. I quickly left after the job is done and I got a half a hug from one of them and they were whisked away. What can I do?

The BAR association is a treasonus syndicate of thieves in rebellion against the Constitutions. The California State Bar association is a public corporation as stated in Aticle 6, sec.9 of the California Constitution (1879). Think long and hard on that. A public corporation.....

Judge Cynthia Lie intentionally violated my Constitutional Rights and Judge Carol Overton violated my Constitutional Rights ias well as my former tenant as a result caused him to be arrested and his father to pass as he was ill. Judge Overton conspired with Attorney Todd Rothbard I have the fraud upon the Court recorded documents that Judge Overton granted Judgement based on fraud. They are attempting to steal my $2.5 million equity. I have handed over copies to trusted family members as we are 5 generations in San Jose and have over 1000 family members in the San Jose Area. I have been a Board Member for Christmas in The Park, I have received a Commendation from the City Of San Jose for bringing Hollywood Red Carpet Experience to San Jose Disney Actors. I graduated SJSU and a Delta Upsilon Alum Barry Swenson is my Fraternity Brother. I represented DAL Properties in real estate developments. Charles Davidson was my client. I’m a fellow for former mayor Ron Gonzalez Leadership Board Program. For these two Judges to target me a local home grown Latino who has supported his community for over 30 years and attempt to steal my home separate me from my chid put me through almost 3 years of alcohol and drug testing even after ordering me to get assessment which I was declared as no habitual drug or alcohol problems. Give me 50 custody then strip it away once I no longer could afford attorney after 5 years over going over and over the cycle of custody dispute all based on fabrications. This is Racism and Discrimination. Now I have criminal charges filed against me by D A s office that are fabricated again. Little did they know I documented everything as I been reading this site and others since 2014. With the help of some law enforcement college buddies gathered enough to give to my friends at Black Lives Matter and Media relationships in Hollywood. As well as I’m on the Board for Chavez Institute of Law Social Justice with Paul Chavez grandson of Cesar Chavez. The time is now! I’m ready to show who these people really are! I would love all the support who has been harmed financially emotionally and lost years of productivity to my community and family. They need to feel that pain so they never attempt to harm citizens again. We are innocent citizens that honor our Constitution and are being harmed by criminals who are abusing their power in a racist discriminatory actions! Redemption Day is coming for the Just ! The unjust got to go!
