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.

ALL STAY AWAY ORDERS AND RESTRICTIONS,
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…

Now from Michigan a Probate court is going to decide Blogger’s rights in Probate

see:

http://learnfromtom.com/index.php/convoluted-case-how-a-contentious-michigan-guardianship-devolved-into-a-probate-court-battle-that-could-impact-bloggers-rights/

In this case, one blogger following a probate case became the victim of the court appointed lawyers demanding that she cease and desist from posting, from saying things about certain attorneys involved in the case–and incredulously, the judge is listening and the attorney is billing for suppressing First Amendment Rights.

The blog in question is http://www.learnfromtom.com and I believe our stories are similar.

Within hours of the site launching March 19, emails from the family’s former attorney show Siporin demanded the site be shut down, threatening to send cease-and-desist letters to get the site shuttered.
Siporin then sent the family legal documents demanding to know who essentially gave Tom freedom of speech and the ability to talk about how he feels when not at Rainbow. Siporin – who claims to have several degrees and to have worked as an auditor for 30+ years in the corporate setting at…

Allegations of Alleged Corruption and Abuse at the Probate Court Level in Cook County, IL

nancyjthorner's avatarNancy J. Thorner


The end of life has many challenges for the elderly.  It can be a fast or a long goodbye and might involve a transition to assisted living, a nursing home, or a live-in caretaker.

There will always be opportunists who like vultures circle to claim flesh whether the person is dead or alive.  Large sums of money are not always pre-requisites to the exploitation of the most vulnerable in our society, the elderly and disabled children.   Abuse also bi-passes color, race or creed.

It is up to each one of us to expose elder abuse when it happens around us to a loved one or to a friend or acquaintance.  Because Elder Abuse has in many ways become a national industry, the following website has been set up nationally To GUARD incompetent people from harming themselves, To CONSERVE  their assets and property; and To PREVENT them from becoming a “public charge:  www.nasga.com

Spotting Mortgage Fraud–the atty liars, cheats and thugs from Eliot Bernstein

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

From Florida and ground zero for many, many fradulent practices by mega banksters comes the following slide show which makes it clear how mortgage fraud is perpetrated on the public.

Now that mortgages are sold over and over under MERS (Mortgage Electronic Recording System), this means that Mortgages are sold as commodities, like pork bellies, and no one often knows who truly owns the mortgage and note dozens of transactions later.

Fees can amass as mortgages are transferred, escrows escalate and late fees become phenomenal.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6FbJzwtHocwRE1nYXpRWHdMNXc/view?usp=sharing

this is an excellent example of how to spot mortgage and note fraud and defeat proceedings for foreclosure.

Declared incompetent at age 91, former Opera Singer sings her way out!

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

How wonderful is that? Age 91 and amassing rent due because her building is a slum and she was withholding rent, the Landlord allegedly put in a call to Adult “(anti) Protective Services” and was swiftly guardianized against her will and put in a Nursing Home.

Able to escape one day and get to court (try THAT in Illinois, strangely no one ever want to come and there are never any voice recordings of those agreements), she woos the judge back to the judge’s own sanity by signing Sumertime and another selection.

She then goes free and is able to go live at home.

Another success story this month.
