A good link to see what the Federal Government intends to do about all of these problems:

While the chair from Maine talks mainly (pun intended?) about family members taking finanacial advantage of elders, it is our experience that combined with these issues are then the probate courts and guardianships take advantage of that senior in their target-isolate-medicate-drain and eliminate programs now bustling in the nation’s probate courts and for which victims are becoming mightly vociferous in their objections to having a feeding tube implanted at one end, a diaper at the other and then the nursing home does little to nothing for $5k, $10k and sometimes even $15k per year.

If that isn’t severe abuse, torture and financial exploitation, I don’t know what else is.  Atty Helen Stone’s case is a classic example of that. Brother takes $625k and she reports it, and a g-ship is opened.  Two…

For those of you that are familiar with the Petition for my suspension under Sup. Ct. Rule 774 based upon the ARDC’s allegations that I and this blog is a danger to the public and to my clients because this blog contains numerous false and misleading statements or false statements made with “disregard for the truth”, now is your chance to tell the ARDC and the Supreme Court of Illinois that is a preposterous allegation.

Please print out and sign the below declaration if you disagree.  EVEN IF YOU AGREE WITH THEM, AS LONG AS YOU PROVIDE SOME REASONABLE BASIS FOR YOUR DECLARATION, I WILL SUBMIT.

This blog is honest, accurate and truthful.  We do not hide the truth. We believe in human rights, civil rights and liberties, and most of all, free speech.

Go ahead and let me know your thoughts and I will send them along.

From Ms. Theresa Lyles, another probate victim in Florida, for being terrorized by the probate court system there, and I believe Judge Genden, Barbara Stone’s abusive judge:

IN THE COUNTY COURT OF THE 8’h JUDICIAL CIRCUIT IN AND FOR ALACHUA
COUNTY, FLORIDA
AFFIDAVIT
I, Teresa A. Lyles, after being duly sworn deposed and states to the best of my own personal knowledge and belief hereby state the following:
1. I am an interested party in the matter of the Guardianship of Carmen Tozzo, (hereafter referred to as “My Family Member”) who is my mother and who currently resides in Ocala, Florida. and is currently being held at Memory Lane (a lock-down facility).
2. My Family Member, was placed into a court ordered guardianship on the date 6th day of June 2011 ( emergency temporary gship- Bonnie DiVito),  November, 2011 (1 51 plenary – Marilyn ‘Lynn’ Belo), 16th day of August…

From an Atlantic article wherein a NSA admitted that they had provided “cute” or “aggressive” interpretations of the law to wrongfully expand their spying abiltites:

If the NSA can admit that what they did was wrong (spying on everyone without a court order or only rubber stamped court orders) this will be a step in the right direction.

The courts are also there to funnel the efforts of agencies so that American taxpayers are not spending too much for spying efforts.  Qui Tam action, anyone?

This poor woman was denied guardianship, it was scheduled on a day she could not attend court, then she started filing a flury of pleadings to present her side of the case.

The probate judge responded by barring her from coming to court and filing pleadings!

As most of you know from this blog, it is my position that pro se people are citizens that actually own and pay for the court system, so such rulings are an unconstitutional insult and an Abuse of Power.

Fortunately, the court of appeals turned one of her “writes” into a Notice of Appeal and then reversed that judge.  They acknowldeged there are far too few lawyers for low and middle class citizens to present their cases, esp. in probate.  While they think solving the problem is a $100 per year increase in bar dues to fund legal aide, it is the experience…

This article gives the theory, examples of cases against courts and judges, and how to plead a case in a corrupt court system.

There are plenty of case law examples and citations to get any plaintiff going that has experienced severe fraud and corruption in court.  From the article:

WHAT DID CHIEF JUDGE OF THE US COURT OF APPEALS, 5TH CIRCUIT, SAY ABOUT THE US JUSTICE SYSTEM?

* “The American legal system has been corrupted almost beyond recognition…”

Chief Judge, US Court of Appeals, 5th Circuit, Edith Jones, speaking before the Federalist Society of Harvard Law School (February 2003)
