From Theresa Maxwell on the Guardianship of her mother, Mrs. Strege–isolated and abused in Court

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

From mainstream media–where the courts and judges won’t let stories be published.  This is a typical story that Jerome Larkin of the ARDC wants to stop honest attorneys from publicly speaking out against–myself, Ken Ditkowsky and Lanre Amu

Conway: The Strege case indicated to me that is a guardian can take a mother in this case and make a decision to move her into a different setting and then deny children access to that parent, there’s something wrong with that picture. We need a place where these families can go to challenge these decisions and question the guardian.

From the daughter–immediately after appointment of a “professional” Guardian (of death and family terrorism), all visitation by children, grandchildren and former friends.

TWELVE GRANDCHILDREN she could not longer see.

She was required to take a class on guardianship and it took weeks to see her mother.  When she saw her…

From Atty Candice Schwager — Hoodwinked in Probate Court

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

http://texastombraiders.com/hoodwinked-in-the-texas-house/

What happens when the rule of law increasingly bows to the whims and violations of unaccountable public officials? Lawlessness in every branch and a system of law that caters to the elite, not the people. Our system of law is slowly being eroded by those at the top levels of our government in every branch to such egregious degrees that the law is not law anymore. Form takes precedence over substance. The appearance of legitimacy is all we have in guardianship anymore–unless you’re in a county without a “guardianship program.”

I have personally witnessed the stark contrast in crime and civil rights violations between counties that have “guardianship programs” and those who do not. In the former, it’s utter lawlessness and the Judges are hardly even in control of the bench any longer. In the latter, people are still treated like people and their civil rights are respected.

What’s…

http://www.examiner.com/article/silverado-senior-living-retaliates-against-advocates-for-disabled-to-censor

Here is the law cited (so others can use in your cases)

State and Federal Law pertaining to advocating for the needs of the disabled under Title II or III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (“ADA”), the Elder Justice Act, the Older Americans Act, the Elder Bill of Rights as stated in Section 102.003 of the Texas Human Resources Code, Patient rights’ violations in Texas Administrative Code Sections 19.401-19.418, et seq, the First, Fifth, Fourteenth, Eighth Amendments to the United States Constitution, Articles I and V of the Texas Constitution, 18 U.S.C. 241 (Felony violation of Constitutional Rights), 18 U.S.C. 242 (Conspiracy to violate Constitutional Rights), 18 U.S.C. 247 (Conspiracy to deprive Americans of Free Exercise of Religion), the Texas Penal Code Sections 22.04 and more mandating reporting of any suspicion of abuse, neglect, or exploitation of the elderly and/or disabled.

Flying the flag on a pick up truck a disatraction? No, a First Amendment right

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

Today Ken Ditkowsky pointed out an article where a student flew a flag on the back of his pickup truck and school officials issued him a warning notice, unbolted it and laid it in the back of the truck and told him to come back to school without it.

The outrage!

My flag is this blog, and Jerome Larkin of the ARDC has told me to take it down.  He doesn’t like what it says or why it symbolizes–freedom, and especially freedom from corruption in government.

Go ahead and ask him to disclose all of what he knows about the 6 people who died in the fire at the OPG.  I asked some older attorneys and was stunned at their answer.  Warning:  I am not going to reveal it here until the families have been informed and the miscreants have been brought to justice and publicly apologize, but they…

In support of her position, A.D. cites Nesses, 68 F.3d 1003. In that case, Nesses brought suit in federal court against the lawyers and some of the judges involved in a breach of contract case which he had filed in Indiana state court and lost. Id. at 1004. Nesses claimed that his opponents’ lawyers used their political clout to turn the state judges against him. Id. The district court dismissed Nesses’ suit for lack of jurisdiction based on the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. Id. This court rejected that conclusion, reasoning that the Rooker-Feldman doctrine did not bar Nesses’ claim because his suit was not premised on a claim that the

From Candice Schwager and Barbara Stone–Orders without Jurisdiction are Void

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

Judge Michael Genden in Florida has persecuted and prosecuted Atty Barbara Stone to no end.  She has only tried to protect her mother from severe harm and her mother is still in grave danger at the hands of the probate court and judges in Florida.  Barbara has not seen her mother in long months.  Reading from the transcript the other day, Lustig’s excuse is “it was a legal matter”.  No, it is not.  What the Lustig/Genden team is doing is seriously violating Helen and Barbara’s Constitutional rights to association and to love one another.

Read on.

AND ANY AND ALL ORDERS ISSUED BY MICHAEL GENDEN ARE DECLARED VOID
Michael Genden has endangered the life and safety of Helen Stone.  Michael Genden has engaged in criminal elder abuse, aggrevated abuse and financial exploitation.  Michael Genden has abetted criminal elder abuse, aggravated elder abuse and financial…

From Eliotbernstein–Favorite quotes from Barbara Stone’s transcript

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

Thanks, Eliot for sending this along.

It’s interesting how the judge can’t figure out this guardianship, why Helen Stone bounces back and forth between hospital and nursing home.

It’s also interesting how Lustig says Barbara’s visiting her mother is a “legal issue”–no it’s not.  Also, who gives a hockey puck about the attorneys fees.   On Barbara and her brother stand to inherit from mom, and brother already forged $600k in checks out of mom’s account, so what is that even relevant?

Barbara is fighting to see her mother and report abuse.  Lustig and Lapides are running a cover up operation.

This judge is visibly concerned and Barbara should amend and go back.

From Miami Florida again-study shows guardianships have little oversight and a lot of problems

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

http://www.miaminewtimes.com/news/floridas-guardians-often-exploit-the-vulnerable-residents-theyre-supposed-to-protect-6395605

A telling and chilling quote from the article, where one woman contracted brain tape worms from eating tainted meat served by her employer, she received a multi million dollar settlement, but lives in a dilapidated apartment with a “professional guardian” in charge of all her money.

“Deep inside me, I knew something wasn’t right with what they did,” Waters says. “But they have neckties and license to do what they did… I didn’t know how to handle the system.”

This is just another case where the attorneys, their case managers and supervisors, tied in nurses, etc. get paid hundreds of dollars per hour, while leaving the “ward” in dilapidated housing, no access to their funds, often isolated from friends and family, and then it’s drain, drain, drain the estate.

In hindsight, there were conflicts of interest from the beginning. For Royal Caribbean, placing a stranger in charge of her…

To Collect Debts, Nursing Homes seize control over patients in New York

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

Looks like some probate court abuse is seeping into the mainstream media.

I believe a year ago, this story would have been quashed.  The first thing that happens in probate court when miscreants want to seize control of assets and granny is they make sure the POA and Successor Trustee have no assets to fight them (Reichert, Sykes, etc.) and then they isolate, medicate, drain the estate and eliminate.  Many states keep probate court records sealed–claiming personal information is divulged–but in reality it seems to hide gross civil and human rights violations and cover up elder abuse by probate connected lawyers and their “caretakers” who only abuse, neglect, starve, isolate and play body guard to the ward to ensure he or she does not speak to anyone the truth.

Next thing they do, if there are any media stories, they threaten to sue.

In mine and Ken Ditkowsky’s case, one…
