Taitz pays up

by Dr. Conspiracy on 28. Aug, 2010 in Lawsuits, Orly Taitz

Despite what you may have heard, erstwhile attorney Orly Taitz, her appeals exhausted, has paid the $20,000 in sanctions imposed by federal judge Clay D. Land in Georgia, for her misconduct in the Rhodes v. MacDonald case.

Taitz still hopes to get her money back, having asked the District Court to reconsider (again) in a filing last Wednesday (Aug 26, 2010). I must say that she does a much better job redacting her bank account number than she does Barack Obama’s Social Security number.

On the back of the check she wrote:

paid under protest as illegal extortion to cover obama’s fraud

Hamrick v United States et al

by Dr. Conspiracy on 28. Aug, 2010 in Lawsuits

US Merchant Seaman Don Hamrick of Arkansas has sued the United States, all 9 justices of the Supreme Court, and “putative President” Barack Obama for $14.4 million in a 395-page complaint filed in the US District Court for the District of Columbia.

Judge John D. Bates was seen with a dazed expression leaving the court after issuing his order dismissing the suit sua sponte, mumbling something about the rules requiring complaints to be short and to the point. [Just kidding]

Is this an Obama eligibility case? You think I read that thing? I think not, though. It’s mostly a Second Amendment case. There was something about machine guns in there. It does talk about standing and RICO and stuff you seen in some eligibility lawsuits.

H/t to Phil and the McClatchy Blog, Suits and Sentences.

Phil Berg asks for reconsideration in False Claims Act appeal

by Dr. Conspiracy on 10. Aug, 2010 in Lawsuits, Philip Berg

Philip Berg

Crusading birther attorney (if Phil Berg isn’t a “birther”, who is?) has petitioned the 3rd Circuit Circuit Court of Appeals to have his appeal decided by a majority of the entire court after being rebuffed by a three-judge panel. This is the False Claims Act (FCA) suit, Berg as Relator vs. Obama (the the famous “sealed case” that was filed unsealed, downloaded by lots of folks, and then hastily sealed).

Under the FCA, a private citizen can claim that someone is defrauding the government, in this case Obama accepting a government salary while an “illegal alien,” and take them to court if they cannot get the government to prosecute.

Berg plays the race card in explaining why Attorney General Eric Holder wouldn’t have any of Berg’s conspiracy theories:

The Policy of United States Attorney General Eric Holder not to prosecute “blacks” in voting rights cases should be no surprise as A.G. Holder has refused to prosecute Barack Hussein Obama in the False Claims Act [Qui Tam] case of Berg as Relator vs. Obama.

Hmmm. I thought Berg was a life-long member of the NAACP.

You can read the press release at Berg’s Obamacrimes.com web site, and get a tutorial there on the term “en banc”.

Mario’s Masterful Missive (Updated)

by Dr. Conspiracy on 22. Jul, 2010 in Lawsuits, Lounge, Mario Apuzzo

Dr. Conspiracy

Editorial

I’ve seen some disparaging remarks from the attorneys that post here and elsewhere about the response to the Order to Show Cause in the case of Kerchner v Obama filed by Mario Apuzzo. With all due respect to these learned persons, I think Apuzzo’s response was masterfully done and I think that these critical attorneys just say what they do because they think like lawyers. To fully appreciate what Mr. Apuzzo has accomplished with his argument and his cases, it’s necessary do a little thinking outside of the box (or perhaps beyond the bar).

Appreciation of the response requires review of the background in the Kerchner case which is hardly an ordinary lawsuit. I wrote about Apuzzo’s second amended complaint in a series of articles, Kerchner v. Obama and the WHOLE COUNTRY and Kerchner v. Obama and the WHOLE COUNTRY, Part 2. (more…)

Apuzzo strikes back

by Dr. Conspiracy on 20. Jul, 2010 in Lawsuits, Mario Apuzzo

The choice that I face is between reading Apuzzo’s response to the appeals court’s order to show cause why he shouldn’t be punished for filing a frivolous lawsuit, and getting a haircut.

I choose the haircut. You make your own choice. (more…)

69-0

by Dr. Conspiracy on 18. Jul, 2010 in Lawsuits

The score in the battle of lawsuits between Obama eligibility denialists and the normals is counted in various ways, depending on which lawsuits you include. There are any number of federal prisoners suing Obama in his official capacity for all sorts of things, and these are typically not counted. There is some debate over the exact number of wins, whether it is 69 or some other number, and of course the number changes over time.

What doesn’t change over time (at least so far) and what has remained unaffected by exactly which cases are counted is the big fat goose egg for the denialist side. This brings us to what is being claimed to be the first birther win.

Blogger Sharon Ann Meroni (aka Chalice Jackson) claims a win for her column in the article: ELIGIBILITY VICTORY # 1 – Meroni V Wiggins – Birth Certificate Received!. Meroni has challenged dozens of candidates in the upcoming Illinois election because they haven’t shown birth certificates. In a hearing before the McHenry County Officers’ Electoral Board one candidate, Ms. Sally Wiggings, through her attorney moved to dismiss the challenge accompanied by an affidavit and a birth certificate. I don’t know if this bit of expedient acquiescence to a crank could be called a victory. Obama is still president, so I think the score must remain 0 for the denialists.
