From Ken Ditkowsky — More dirty tricks from Esformes and taking advantage of the poor and elderly

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

The following is a copy of an Article that was in today’s Chicago Tribune.
When Coupled with the Seth Gillman plea of guilty and the episodes with Omnicare the future for Philip Esformes is not bright.   From the sidelines we all have observed the fact that Seth Gillman is now co-operating with the Fed along with some of Philip’s other associates.   The obvious attempt to encourage Gillman not to co-operate by Jerome Larkin et al I am such was noticed by the Fed.   Nevertheless, I understand that he and others are forming a choirs and are scheduling a concert very soon at 219 South Dearborn Street, Chicago, Illinois.
It appears to me that the choir needs a tenor, and as Morris/Philip is aware of the activities of most of the other actors he could be a real help in ending the elder cleansing scandal.   It has…

From Texas Tech School of Law–Interesting article on Probate Exception

Too many times Federal Court dismiss human and civil rights Complaints with a broad brush. Use this article to reign their protection of other judges and crony lawyers

This may help many of you when preparing Responses to the dreaded Motions to Dismiss in Federal Court when you file your 42 USC 1983/85 claims; 18 USC 241/242 claims and ADA claims:

Smith5Allison Elvert Graves (J.D., University of Alabama, licensed in Missouri) has recently published her comment entitled Marshall v. Marshall: The Past, Present, and Future of the Probate Exception to Federal Jurisdiction, 59 Ala. L. Rev. 1643 (2008).

Here is the introduction to her article:

The probate exception is one of the most mysterious and esoteric branches of the law of federal jurisdiction.” This often cited quote describes the uncertainty surrounding the scope of the probate exception to federal jurisdiction. It has long been held that “a federal court has no jurisdiction to probate a will or administer an estate.” This prohibition on “matters of strict probate” is generally assumed to…

From Ken Ditkowsky–NY Lawyer steals $5 million from clients, gets 6.5 years in prison

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

From Ken Ditkowsky–

Had this occurred in Illinois – assuming that the lawyer was part of the miscreant co-operative, Jerome Larkin would have covered this up and it would be ethically challenged to point it out!

 It is interesting to not e that when Lawyer Seth Gillman stole  over $100 million as part of his fraudulent hospice activity, there was no ARDC action when this was announced by an indictment–or when members of the public complained before the indictment.   When he pleaded guilty, Larkin and the IARDC were silent; however, when Gillman started to co-operate with the Federal Authorities – bingo! – the IARDC (Larkin) were before the Supreme Court of Illinois to get an interium suspension of Gillman’s license.    The miscreants in the Sykes case are still practicing law, even though about $3 million dollars has been stolen and the judge at page 91 of her…

From the NYT–BOA ordered to pay millions to blacks due to discrimination

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

is anyone surprised?

As an employer, it wasn’t exactly the bank for all of America.

Bank of America was ordered Monday to pay 1,147 African American job applicants $2,181,593 in back wages and interest after a judge found that the company’s Charlotte office had racially discriminated against them.

Judge Linda S. Chapman ruled that the bank used “unfair and inconsistent selection criteria” when it routinely chose white applicants over black job-seekers in 1993 and again between 2002 and 2005.

In 1993, the Labor Department’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs launched a review of the bank that turned up evidence of “systemic hiring discrimination” against African Americans, denying them entry-level clerical and administrative positions.

A judge ordered Bank of America to pay $2.2 million to more than 1,000 African Americans who were denied work at the company's Charlotte offices.

From Ken Ditkowsky–Gangbanging in the Cook County Court System

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

From Ken–
With political correctness the meaning of words has changed dramatically; however, the acts depicted by the words are much more vivid.   For instance, on the MaryGSykes blog the word “gangbanging” is used to describe the atrocity that is now common place in the Circuit Court of Cook County and a number of other courts across the country.    Indeed, when I saw the word used in context with the elderly victims of elder cleansing I was a bit shocked as I envisioned that the people protected by Jerome Larkin, and the Illinois Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission had engaged in a new sport – now that the Illinois Supreme Court by dismissing the Rule to Show Cause  directed to Jerome Larkin had clearly indicated that Rule of Law did not apply to those who were the elite.    It was thus perfectly fine for Larkin to misuse public funds, breach…

From CNN–keeping the rich richer and the poor poorer via the Fed Reserve and the top banks

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

http://money.cnn.com/2016/01/14/investing/atm-overdraft-fees/

I have no idea why there aren’t mass protests and outrages over how we bail out the banks and they continue to steal and the Fed Reserve, our nations tyrannical oversight committee on ensuring theft via computer, has not been drummed out of town with tar and feathers on a rail. They do not protect consumers.  The courts always rule in favor of big banking, when these banksters should be in prison for theft, conversion and tresspass upon our hard earned money.

ATM and overdraft fees top $6 billion at the big 3 banks

Ever taken out cash from an ATM machine and gotten socked with a $3 fee (or worse)? You probably weren’t thrilled about that.

Nobody likes those fees. Except banks.

American needs a infusion of Honesty and Honor!    The Elder Cleansing miscreants have declared war on the elderly and the disabled – and our society remains silent.   Some of our political elite have declared war on the First Amendment and seek to intimidate lawyers in particular and the citizens in general from speaking out freely.    Here in Illinois we had an attorney who lost his license to practice law for pointing out a conflict of interest.    A Judge refused to recuse herself even though she was on the Board of Directors of the defendant and her brother was an attorney in the law firm representing the defendant.   A respected business newspaper (Crains Chicago Business Daily)…

From Roseanne Miller in Ohio–Her THIRD false arrest by Bellfonatine Police Dept

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

When will this every end?

Subject: Status of Roseanne Miller–she has been falsely arrested again PLUS her 3 email accounts have been hacked!
Roseanne has been very, very upset.  When she called me today she had been crying and is very distraught over her THIRD false arrest.
This time, she had apparently asked a fire fighter friend what some sort of contraption was that she found in the house.  He told her it was a home made bomb trap (which her evil brother likely set), and her friend called the bomb squad.  In the confusion, the police ran a background check on HER and claim that they found an outstanding warrant for non payment of a contempt fee, which is of course illegal because under the Ohio constitution imprisonment for debts are specifically prohibited.
She was arrested on Thursday and I understand it was fairly harrowing because the police don’t…

From Huffington Post–Is Elder Guardianship a new form of Human Trafficking? YES!

Joanne M Denison's avatarMaryGSykes.com

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-terri-kennedy/is-elder-guardianship-a-n_b_11970144.html

Of course it is. These people have no choice, they are stripped of all their rights and miscreant attorneys from the bar associations and disciplinary boards cover it all up–hence Jerome Larkin, Head Administrator of the ARDC has covered up a dozen cases in Illionis of murder, neglect, torture and death and put many, many seniors and disableds at risk together with James Grogin, lead counsel of the Illinois ARDC, and Melissa Smart and Sharon Opryszek and Steven Split (who is supposed to be an “ethics professor” imagine that) and Leah Guiterrez Black. All of these attorneys think that taking massive amounts of attorneys fees from estates, the life, limb and property of seniors and disableds is “okay.”  Ken Ditkowsky, Lanre Amu, Candice Schwager and other attorneys find this type  of “guardianship” in the nation’s probate courts to be immoral, unethical and repugnant directly to the Core Values of…

Everywhere you turn, there is a war on the elderly and the disabled, and corrupt judges aided by organizations charged with disciplining lawyers (such as in Illinois the Attorney Registration of Disciplinary Commission, in Florida the Florida Bar ***). 
The law is very clear — the Court appointed guardians are fiduciaries and thus owe the highest standard of conduct to the ‘wards.’   The highest standard of conduct does not include such activities as isolating the ward, stealing from the ward, incarceration of the ward in nursing home facilities or other facilities wherein the ward is systematically dehumanized so as to efficiency strip the estate of the ward of assets etc.   Law enforcement has a duty to protect the elderly.   ADA gives the Justice Department Jurisdiction as certainly…
