09-09-09 SEC v Bank of America Corporation (1:09-cv-06829) Dr Joseph


Zernik’s Affidavit and Appendices in opposition to settlement then
pending before the court.
On August 3, 2009, Complaint (Dkt #1) in SEC v Bank of America Corporation (1:09-cv-06829) was filed,
pursuant to cause of action of Securities Fraud – 15 USC §77. Litigation in this matter continues to this date.

Concomitantly with the filing of the complaint, the parties noticed the court of their intent to file a proposed
Consent Judgment in the case – in the sum of ~$30 millions.

The August 25, 2009 Order (Dkt #13) stated:


This Court has the obligation, within carefully prescribed
limits, to determine whether the proposed Consent Judgment settling
this case is fair, reasonable, adequate, and in the public interest.

Both parties filed papers in support of their proposed Consent Judgment.

On September 9, 2009, Dr Zernik submitted, as an affidavit letter to chambers, copied to the parties,
objection to the proposed settlement. Such affidavit was submitted following instructions from
chambers regarding the procedure permitted for such affidavit.

The September 15, 2009 Memorandum Opinion (Dkt #22) rejected the proposed settlement, then
pending, and ordered the parties to set schedules for trial in February 2010.

The core arguments in the September 9, 2009 Affidavit by Dr Zernik in opposition to the then proposed
settlement can be summed as follows:
• Conduct of Bank of America Corporation following the takeover of Countrywide Financial
Corporation demonstrated adamant refusal to comply with the law.
• Conduct of SEC and other US banking regulators in recent years demonstrated adamant refusal
to enforce the law, and cover up of the alleged and opined criminality in banking operations.
• SEC and Bank of America Corporation never arrived in court as adversarial parties, and therefore,
neither the settlement, nor an attempt to litigate the complaint were likely to be effectual.

The Committee should be interested in being informed regarding the state of integrity, or lack

at a time of crisis such as we witness now.
The Committee is asked to consider sending a delegation to the U.S. including banking, human rights,
and court administration experts. There is a need for all involved inside the U.S. to hear the
perspective of an objective, friendly, outside body regarding events now taking place in the U.S.,
which are of historic proportions. In addition, conditions in the U.S. are rapidly shifting, and the
international community, needs to better understand such facts, in order to conduct its business in an
informed and effective way.

Please take notice:

A. Proposed schedule for exchange of comments prior to submitting letter to court.


Dr Zernik proposes the schedule listed below for exchange of comments with the
parties on his planned letter to the Court of the Honorable Judge Rakoff. The reason
Dr Zernik is soliciting such comments is that the claims made in such letter are of
high public policy significance, and he would like to ensure that the parties
mentioned had a chance to correct him, in case of errors:
1) Zernik will fax to parties his DRAFT letter to the Hon Jed Rakoff no later than
9:00am EST of business on Monday, August 31, 2009.
2) Parties will fax to Zernik (801-998-0917) comments or objections, if any, no
later than 5:00pm EST, on Friday, September 4, 2009.
3) Zernik will fax parties and the court his FINAL letter no later than 9:00am
Tuesday, September 8, 2009.
Please respond by Friday, August 28, 2009, 5:00 pm, if you would be interested in
engaging in the proposed exchange.

B. Requests were forwarded on August 25, 2009 to BAC to take action in re:
Putting an end to material violations of the law
On August 25, 2009 Requests were forwarded (attached) to Officers and
Directors, the Audit Committee, and the Independent Auditor of BAC – in re: “Doing
the right thing…” 6
The note concerned alleged criminality perpetrated against Dr Zernik by
Countrywide, which was initiated in 2004, and which continued to this date – under
BAC control - as deceitful court proceedings7 at the Los Angeles Superior Court.
Bryan Cave, LLP, a large international law-firm continued to appear at the LA
Superior Court, claiming to be counsel of record for BoA, which it was not. It also
falsely self-designated as “Non Party” for the past 2 years – while the court
interchangeably designated it “Plaintiff”, “Defendant”, “Intervenor”, “Real Party in
Interest” and other designations, with no legal foundation at all. Such alleged
criminality directly involved Angelo Mozilo – CEO and also Sandor Samuels –
5
The People’s Bank of China is standing to be the single biggest loser from the recklessness of U.S.
Financial institutions such as Countrywide, due to the size of deposits in dollar denominations.
Therefore, the People’s Republic of China has direct interest in the integrity of the U.S. banking
system, and in effective enforcement of the law. On the other hand, the People’s Republic of China is
the partner whose cooperation the U.S. government needs more than any other, in shoring the current
crisis –through adjustment of exchange rates. According to media, the Chinese government
expressed its concerns during the visit in May 2009 of Treasury Secretary Geithner, regarding banking
regulation in the U.S., its efficacy, and reliability of U.S. government data and control systems. All
parties to the case must realize that it is being watched and would be assessed as indicative of the
U.S. government resolve to assert its authority in the current financial crisis.

z Page 3/6 August 27, 2009

formerly Chief Legal Officer of Countrywide, who today serves as Associate General
Counsel of BAC. Dr Zernik himself never even had any business with Countrywide.
The August 25, 2009 Requests included the following:
1. That BAC would prohibit any further appearances by Bryan Cave, LLP, at the
LA Superior Court purporting to be Counsel of Record for BAC, since such
conduct contradicted BAC’s published Code of Ethics, and BAC’s published
Outside Counsel Procedures. The next such appearance was listed online
as scheduled for September 23, 2009. Accordingly Dr Zernik requested an
early notice by September 8, 2009, regarding BAC action in this regard.
2. That BAC would notice Dr Zernik in writing,8 who was authorized and
assigned to represent BAC in matters pertaining to Dr Zernik.
3. That BAC would have the Audit Committee review the CFC involvement in
the matter, claimed to have been material violation of the law: It directly
involved Mozilo and Samuels and the CFC Legal Department. It is alleged to
have involved the production of hundreds of pages of false banking records,
a full set of false declarations and the fabrication of loan underwriting
histories. Such efforts were all for the cause of perpetrating real estate fraud
on Dr Joseph Zernik, who had no business with CFC whatsoever.
In previous complaints filed with the BAC Audit Committee pursuant to
Sarbanes Oxley Act (2002), it was proposed that such review by focused on
review of a list of six (6) records that were repeatedly filed in court in Los
Angeles, even after the July 1, 2008 take over by BAC. Such records are
considered the core of the fraud by Countrywide/BAC against Dr Zernik.
That list is again attached to this notice.

C. The Court of the Hon Jed Rakoff permitted Dr Zernik to provide input in re: the
SEC/BAC proposed settlement agreement.
Yesterday, August 26, 2009, the court of the Hon Jed Rakoff, permitted Dr Zernik to
submit comments in re: Proposed settlement agreement in SEC v BAC (1:09-cv-
06829 ), in a letter form.
Dr Zernik believes that he would be able to provide the court with substantial
insights into the history of enforcement, or lack thereof, by U.S. agencies such as
SEC, FBI, US DOJ, and other, when complaints were filed with such agencies
providing detailed evidence of criminality at Countrywide. Furthermore, such
agencies refused to provide any protection to Dr Zernik against such ongoing
criminality either.
Following the take over of Countrywide by BAC, there was no indication of an
attempt by BAC to bring its Countrywide subsidiary into compliance with the law.
Instead, patterns of alleged criminal conduct that were typical of Countrywide, are
now observed at BAC.

8
In over a year since BAC took over Countrywide, several senior staff at the office of BAC General
Counsel informed Dr Zernik that Bryan Cave, LLP was NOT authorized to appear, but BAC failed to
respond to numerous requests to provide written notice who its Counsel of Record was.
28 / 545
z Page 4/6 August 27, 2009

The Honorable Jed Rakoff expressed his concern regarding the lack of
transparency in the settlement agreement. Dr Zernik would like to focus attention on
another presumed agreement that remains entirely concealed:
BAC agreed to acquire Countrywide on January 11, 2008, in the context of markets
turmoil, after the publication of the fact that Countrywide attorneys filed in a
Pittsburgh Pennsylvania Court three (3) “recreated letters” as evidence. 9 And while
media elaborated on the financial aspects of the transaction, there was no mention
of the evident – that BAC had to be concerned about assuming criminal liabilities in
the process of acquiring Countrywide.
Already in February 2009, Dr Zernik provided his opinion to a former Commissioner
of the SEC, that in their short-sighted conduct, U.S. officials most likely made
promises or representations to senior BAC Officers that amounted to indemnity for
future criminality. The former Commissioner dismissed such notion as unreal.
However, Dr Zernik believes that the April 23, 2009 New York Attorney General
Andrew Cuomo letter to U.S. Senate provides support to such notion. Regardless
if such provisions are within or without the realm of the law, it appears that U.S.
agencies such as SEC, FBI, and US DOJ conduct their business with BAC under
such terms.
It is only under such understanding that one can rationalize the conduct of BAC in
allowing itself to be found liable of Securities Fraud on December 6, 2008 in a New
York Court. Media then expressed astonishment. It is also only under such
understanding that one can rationalize the conduct of BAC in allowing Bryan Cave,
LLP to continue its conduct of an enterprise through a pattern of activity that
included since July 1,2008 alone numerous alleged predicated acts.10
It is only under such understanding that one can rationalize the alleged fraud
perpetrated by FBI Assistant Director – Kenneth Kaiser, and US DOJ Director –
Kenneth Melson, in September 8, 2009 responses to inquiries by the
Honorable Dianne Feinstein, Senator and Honorable Diane Watson,
Congresswoman, on behalf of Dr Zernik.
Finally, It is only in the context of such understanding that one may comprehend the
proposed settlement now before the Court.
It is proposed that the existence of such confidential agreements regarding
indemnity from future criminality cannot be allowed to remain a mystery. The nature
of the relationship between the two parties cannot be defined, and the settlement
cannot be approved absent full and complete disclosure on such matters.
Needless to say, such presumed understanding may have entirely undermined
enforcement by SEC at BAC, and also provided permission to BAC to abuse the

9
It is estimated that in Samaan v Zernik (SC087400), Countrywide, and separately BAC in the period
since July 1, 2008, each filed in court at least 100 fold more false records than in the case of S D Hill
(01-22574), in U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Pittsburgh, PA.
10
Comments to be submitted to the Honorable Jed Rakoff will provide detailed evidence of a false
OSC Contempt filed by Bryan Cave, where the purported contempt by Dr Zernik consisted of – calling
the office of General Counsel of BAC, and obtaining evidence that Bryan Cave, LLP, and Judge Terry
Friedman were engaged in alleged perversion of justice – since Bryan Cave, LLP was not authorized
to appear in court in the first place. Such perversion must also be deemed retaliation, harassment, and
intimidation, obstruction, and it also included the production of numerous false court records.
29 / 545

civil rights of Los Angeles resident Joseph Zernik under the color of law, in collusion
with the local court.
It is in the context of such agreements that one should also read the August 21,
2008 email notice received by Dr Zernik from decorated veteran FBI agent James
Wedick, explaining the refusal of FBI to provide Dr Zernik equal protection under the
law.

D. The presumed conduct of U.S. officials relative to BAC – as seen in the Merrill
Lynch and the Countrywide mergers, should be reviewed – since it is likely to be in
violation of the law, and contrary to the public policy interests of the U.S.
The conduct of such U.S. Officials in the context of the Merrill Lynch and
Countrywide mergers with BAC must be reviewed by the courts. Such presumed
conduct would likely be found in violation of the law. Moreover, it would undermine
the rule of law.
Moreover, the combination of the waiver on deposits at BAC, combined with such
presumed understanding that resulted in conduct by BAC that is likely to be found
as amounting to criminality, generated intolerable risk to the U.S. financial systems.
The spectacle of the largest U.S. banking institution found twice in the course of one
year as participating in Securities Fraud, which is believed to stem from such
understanding, is not likely to instill confidence in U.S. financial markets among
investors at home or abroad.

E, Background
SEC v BAC (1:09-cv-06829 ) the August 3, 2009 Complaint was filed under
Cause of action 15 USC §77 Securities Fraud. According the WSJ August 11,
2009, Bank of America agreed to pay the sum of $33 m to settle charges that it
failed to disclose that Merrill Lynch & Co. had agreed to pay up to $5.8 billion in
bonuses just before its merger with Bank of America. As part of the settlement,
Bank of America didn't admit or deny wrongdoing.
"I would be less than candid if I didn't express my continued misgivings about
this settlement at this stage," said Rakoff, according to the Journal.
Rakoff said the agreement lacked transparency, and "would leave uncertain the
truth of the very serious allegations made" by the SEC. Rakoff also wanted to find
out whether the settlement funds would come from money lent to the bank by the
government, added the paper.
In the August 25, 2009 Order Judge Rakoff stated:
This Court has the obligation, within carefully prescribed
limits, to determine whether the proposed Consent Judgment settling
this case is fair, reasonable, adequate, and in the public interest. To
that end, the Court heard argument on August 10, 2009 and, having
insufficient information to make an informed assessment, directed the
parties to make initial written submissions on August 24, 2009
responding to certain areas of the Court's concern, to be followed by
further written submissions on September 9, 2009.
30 / 545
z Page 6/6 August 27, 2009

E. Concerns regarding additional, ongoing, Securities Fraud that should be


considered at the time of settlement or sentencing
In his letter to the Honorable Jed Rakoff, Dr Zernik will point out that his first notice to
CEO Lewis and CFO Price of the alleged criminality by Countrywide, was in
February 4, 2008 certified notices, where Dr Zernik requested that they look into
the matter as part of their due diligence. A February 12, 2008 letter from the office
of CEO Lewis provides indisputable confirmation of that notice. Numerous other
notices followed. And yet, both CEO Lewis and CFO Price repeatedly signed
Certificates pursuant to Sarbanes Oxley Act (2002) in periodic reports to SEC, which
entirely ignored the fact that they themselves were involved in permitting at that time
the continued alleged racketeering in the Los Angeles Court.

Affidavit (Dkt #10)

Executive Summary
The collapse of Countrywide Financial Corporation (CFC) in January 2008, signaled a turning point in
the current financial crisis. It allowed the public world-wide first clue to allow any estimate of the
scope of the escalating financial disaster. On the other hand, it demonstrated the failure of U.S.
banking regulation, and also involved actions by senior Bush administration officials to usher, some
say to coerce, the merger of CFC with Bank of America Corporation (BAC). Similar events recurred
in the collapse of Merrill Lynch, which led to an April 2008 letter by NY Attorney General Andrew
Cuomo. 1 In response to that letter – some media called for criminal indictment of senior U.S. and
BAC Officers, including FRB Chair Henry Ben Bernanke, and BAC Chair Kenneth Lewis. Evidence
from various court actions and a year long study by the U.S. Trustee, documented conditions at CFC
in the years preceding its collapse, which included non-functional external and internal audit structure,
headed by Chair Mozilo, underwriting department that disregarded the law, large data processing
systems that were crippled, and a Legal Department, headed by Chief Legal Officer Samuels, which
was routinely engaged in undermining the integrity of court actions across the U.S.2 , 3 Disregarding
such mounting evidence of alleged racketeering at CFC, involving its most senior officers, including
those holding direct reporting duties to SEC, law enforcement and banking regulators, routinely
refused to investigate complaints. Given the nature of operations at CFC, the insistence of senior U.S.
officers on merging it into BAC, instead of letting it be liquidated, with no indication of any attempt at
enforcement before or after the merger, remains inexplicable, or worse. Concerns regarding
ineffective banking regulation in the U.S., which poses risks to financial markets at home and abroad,
were repeatedly raised, e.g. during the recent visit by U.S. Treasury Secretary Geithner to Beijing.
In proceedings of SEC v BAC (1:09-cv-06829), filed on August 3, 2009 at the U.S. District Court,
NY, SEC appeared to engage in enforcement action against BAC. The parties came before the Court
for approval of a proposed settlement. To assist the Court in reviewing whether the proposed
settlement was “fair, reasonable, adequate, and in the public interest”, Prof Joseph Grundfest,
Stanford Law School, former Commissioner of SEC, produced an Affidavit (Dkt #10), filed by BAC
August 24, 2009. The affidavit supported approval of the settlement. Dr Joseph Zernik, a Los
Angeles County, California resident, asked and received Court permission to provide his input as well.
Dr Zernik filed complaints with FBI, SEC, Thrift Supervision, and Federal Trade Commission,
starting January 2007, providing credible documenting of alleged large scale fraud by CFC against
U.S. Government, which in early 2007 he estimated at hundreds of billions, and which involved CFC
officers holding direct reporting duties. He filed further complaints with the Audit Committee of BAC
after the merger, regarding alleged violations of the law that involved Mr Kenneth Lewis, Mr Joe
Price, and Mr Timothy Mayopoulos – all holders of direct reporting duties. Furthermore, in February

2009 Dr Zernik and Prof Grundfest engaged in discussion of the refusal of SEC to engage in
enforcement in re: BAC and its subsidiary CFC, and records were forwarded to Prof Grundfest, as
credible evidence of material violations by officers holding reporting duties. Prof Grundfest later
stated that he forwarded the records to the Head of Enforcement at SEC. SEC again refused to
investigate complaints against CFC and BAC. 4
Dr Zernik forwarded instant letter to Prof Grundfest, BAC, and SEC, requesting that the Affidavit
(Dkt #10) either be rewritten or entirely withdrawn. Dr Zernik stated that the Affidavit in its current
form, in the docket as it appear online in Pacer, 5, 6 is false and deliberately misleading in itself, and
also provides legitimacy to proceedings which so far fail to demonstrate the essential elements of a
valid, effectual U.S. Court Action. Such Affidavit lends support to one in chain of events where
certain senior U.S. officers and some members of the U.S. and California judiciary, with CFC
and BAC officers, conduct U.S. banking in a manner that is contrary to public policy interest -
recklessly setting up the grounds for a new, bigger financial calamity, which may leave the U.S.
entirely crippled.
This letter was also forwarded as requests to:
1) Stanford Faculty – to assess the academic integrity of Prof Grundfest’s Affidavit, and its
potential harm to U.S. financial markets and law enforcement.
2) General Tommy Frank, and Admiral Joseph Frueher – to issue “Farewell Addresses” to the
public at large, in relationship with their departure from the Audit Committee of BAC.
3) Basel Committee and U.N. High Commissioner on Human Rights – to send a delegation,
including banking regulators, Human Rights experts, and court administrators, to observe
conduct of U.S. and State agencies in the current financial crisis. It is proposed that such
observation start in Los Angeles County, defined by FBI as “the epicenter of the epidemic”.

Timely response requested by Friday, September 4, 2009, 5:00 pm

Attorneys for SEC & BAC, and Prof Grundfest:7


I write to request that you let me know as soon as possible, but no later than
Friday, September 4, 2009, 5:00 pm, what your intent would be in regards to
requests in this letter. I would like to be able to complete my letter over the
Labor Day weekend, possibly still be able to forward to you drafts and get some
comments, and submit it to Court by Sept 9, 2009.
A. General:
1. The scholarship and professional experience of Prof Joseph Grundfest were
fully appreciated and recognized, not only from the writing in instant action,
but also from my personal acquaintance and discussion of related matters
with Prof Grundfest beforehand.
No objections were raised as to the opinion per se, provided by Prof Joseph
Grundfest (Dkt #10), neither was Dr Zernik qualified to challenge Prof
Grundfest’s opinion and scholarship on the specific technical issues of
settlement dynamics, motivations, and decision-making processes by parties
to settlements.
2. Prof Grundfest neglected to define the question he was addressing in his
affidavit opinion, or for that matter, to clearly state who posed such question
7

to him. Regardless, as a Stanford Law Professor, and as a Former


Commissioner of SEC, we must assume that he was readily familiar with
review standards applicable to such settlements, which were stated by the
Honorable Jed Rakoff – to establish whether the proposed settlement was
“fair, reasonable, adequate, and in the public interest”.
3. Therefore, Prof Grundfest’s affidavit is seen as inordinately narrow in it
construction, focusing on theoretical questions related to settlement
dynamics, while on the other hand claiming to have reviewed publicly
available records related to SEC enforcement in re: BAC.
4. I have first hand knowledge, based on my discussions with Prof Grundfest in
February 2009, that he was fully aware of a large volume of credible
evidence, derived from various court actions, 8 indicating material violations
of the law by officers of CFC and later BAC, holding direct reporting duties.
Some of the violations, particularly in the Legal Department of CFC, should
be deemed racketeering per RICO 18 USC §1961-8 upon review by court.
5. Prof Grundfest was fully aware of multiple complaints filed with SEC, which
SEC inexplicably failed to respond to at all.
6. Prof Grundfest was fully aware of repeat conduct in various California and
U.S. courts, where CFC, BAC, SEC, or FBI were named Defendants or Real
Parties in Interest, which fell outside the realm of normative court
proceedings.
7. Prof Grundfest was fully aware of my claims that following collusion with
certain members of the judiciary in alleged criminalities, CFC was effectively
vested in immunities, of “indemnities for future criminalities”, and that
following the merger, BAC started engaging in such alleged collusion as well,
and therefore, gained the same status. Prof Grundfest at the time
considered such interpretation as contrary to the law, and therefore unlikely.
However, the letter of NY Att General Andrew Cuomo two months later, fully
supported such interpretation of current events.
8. In view of the ongoing crisis, Prof Grundfest’s affidavit was construed on a
basis that was too narrow failing to educate the Court regarding the context
in which the proposed settlement emerged – evidence of non-compliance by
BAC, and deliberate refusal by SEC to engage in effective enforcement.
9. Prof Grundfest made the following representation in his affidavit (p3, ¶4):
“… significant public policy concerns [were] raised by this Court in
connection with its review of the pending settlement in this
proceeding…”.
The essence of my request was that Prof Grundfest clearly defined the intent
of his affidavit, so that his opinion address the significant public policy
concerns inherent in current matter.
10. Prof Grundfest also made the following representation (p19, ¶44):
“…Bank of America is a highly regulated entity.”

Such statement appeared of questionable validity. Prof Grundfest should


educate the Court regarding the foundation of such statement – including the
regulations, compliance - or lack thereof, and enforcement - or lack thereof.
5. Recent events in LA County, California, were of historic proportions,
including, but not limited to:
a. The ongoing false confinement of the estimated 10,000, Rampart-
FIPs (falsely imprisoned persons) 9 a full decade after they were
confirmed to be falsely convicted and falsely sentenced. They
were almost exclusively Black and Latinos – the case dwarfs
Guantanamo Bay by comparison.
b. The unprecedented alleged widespread corruption of government
and business in Los Angeles California, which was tolerated and
patronized by FBI and USDOJ for at least two decades.10
c. The losses to the U.S. treasury related to the collapse of LA –
based Countrywide Financial Corporation (CFC).
d. The alleged criminality at CFC, which was most noticed at the
conduct of the Legal Department and litigation practices of CFC.11
e. The close working relationships between CFC and the judiciary in
LA County in perpetrating alleged criminalities. 12
f. The frequent of alleged real-estate frauds by the LA Superior
Court, in a county which was defined by FBI as the “epicenter of
the epidemic”.
g. The central role of computerized case management systems, such
as “Sustain”, in enabling alleged criminality at the LA Superior
Court. Installation of such system was accompanied by: (1)
Elimination of public access to public records that were - the
Registers of Actions (California equivalents of dockets), the Book
of Judgments/Electronic Index of Judgments, and Calendars of the
Courts; 13 (2) Development of a “Local Custom” of “Waiving” the

9
of thousands of Rampart-FIPs (falsely imprisoned persons), a full decade after investigations
demonstrated that they were falsely convicted and falsely sentenced.

August-September 2008 Correspondence between U.S. Congress and FBI, USDOJ, related to my
request that a Special Counsel be appointed, pursuant to 28 CFR §600, under a short-term, limited
mandate – to establish public access to the electronic (computerized) public records of the
courts in LA, to inspect and to copy, pursuant to Nixon v Warner Communications (1978). In
parallel, I suggested that “Truth & Reconciliation Commissions” be established.

11
In that respect, Sandor Samuels, Chief Legal Officer of CFC was the “top figure”, and the fact that
he was not forced to retire, and instead was informed to be Associate General Counsel of BAC, must
be one of the most worrisome details in U.S. government sponsored merger of CFC and BAC.

k. The commonality of sham court actions in both U.S. and state


courts across the U.S. - where counsel, and often judges as well,
know that the proceedings failed to amount to valid, effectual court
action, and yet continue the show as if it were true litigation.18
l. The strange conduct of certain U.S. officers, who in the face of the
collapse of institution(s) that were allegedly engaged in various
criminalities, insisted on securing continuity of such alleged
criminalities by coercing their mergers into BAC, and the
subsequent changes in the conduct of BAC.

6. One key feature that was common as enabling alleged criminalities both in
banking institutions and in courts, was the alleged fraudulent use of large
computer systems. Prof Grundfest was not interested or considered himself
unqualified to review the data on such issue, but it was probably the single
most important finding in Dr Zernik’s records, involving EDGE – the
underwriting monitoring system at CFC, SUSTAIN - the case management
system at the LA Superior Court, and the duality of PACER vs CM/ECF in
the U.S. Courts.
7. Regarding PACER and CM/ECF: The U.S. Courts recently completed a
major project of dual (or triple if paper dockets are counted) dockets,
separate and unequal, where the court could segregate the parties at will.
The single most important difference between the systems was that in Pacer,
all digital signatures were deliberately stripped, and therefore, none of the
records was authenticated. 19 There was no reason that could be even
remotely related to the furtherance of justice that could justify such the
construction of such dual docketing systems at the courts. In parallel – U.S.
Courts seem to refuse to recognize Nixon v Warner Communications, Inc, as
part of the law of the land.20, 21, 22
8. I am the first to admit that I was unqualified for handling any of this.
However it became evident to me a while ago, that this was probably a

“karmic” event in my life, and that I fell into this trap, allegedly set up by
Judge Jacqueline Connor, the Legal Department of CFC and others for a
purpose – to document it, and to use my unusual mix of eclectic skills to
expose certain parts of it, which nobody else would.
A. Specifics:
11. Matters of Form:
a) The paper was adequately faced by Prof Grundfest. However, the
manner in which the paper was filed in court by BAC was inadequate.
The record as it appeared in the docket failed to clearly indicate on its
face who its filer was - Counsel for Defendant BAC.
b) Similarly, it was not readily apparent from the writing itself whether or
not it was solicited by Defendant BAC, by SEC, or by both, and the
exact nature of the solicitation, if any, was not disclosed.
The Affidavit (Dkt #10) stated in one place (p3 ¶4):
Bank of America Corporation (“Defendant” or “Bank of
America”) has agreed to reimburse expenses, if any,
incurred in conjunction with my participation in this
proceeding.
The same paragraph (p3 ¶4) started by stating:
Because of the significant public policy concerns raised by this Court in
connection with its review of the pending settlement in this proceeding,
and because of the implication of those concerns for the Commission’s
and respondents’ ability to settle disputes over alleged violations of
federal securities law, I am providing my services in this matter on a pro
bono basis.
9. The specific Intent of the Affidavit of Joseph A Grundfest was never defined,
and more importantly - who defined such Intent: Prof Grundfest, or Counsel
for BAC/SEC or both.
From the qualification section, one could conclude that Prof Grundfest relied
on the totality of his scholarship and experiences in law, business and
government, and provided a comprehensive opinion regarding the Court’s
quest, within the defined limits –
“…within carefully prescribed limits, to determine whether the
proposed Consent Judgment settling this case is fair, reasonable,
adequate, and in the public interest.”

Prof Grundfest, in the Affidavit stated (p3, ¶4):


The National Law Journal listed me as among the 100 most
influential attorneys in the United States in 1997, 2000 and 2006,
and Directorship Magazine has listed me as among the 100 most
influential leaders in the field of corporate governance for the
last two years.

And further in the Affidavit he stated (p2, ¶2):

39 / 545
z Page 9/18 September 2, 2009

I have personal knowledge of the procedures involved in settling


SEC enforcement actions. As a Commissioner, I participated in
the review and approval of hundreds of settled administrative
and injunctive enforcement proceedings.
Prof Grundfest was no doubt uniquely qualified to provide the court with
opinion on the issues at hand.
10. The “Summary Opinion” provided overview of the procedures and dynamics
of settlements between SEC and corporations under its regulatory
jurisdiction. In addition, it provided a statement that indicated that Prof
Grundfest researched publicly available information pertaining to
enforcement by SEC in re: BAC.
Prof Grundfest, in the Affidavit stated (p3,¶6):

Publicly available information, including filings with the


Commission, establishes that there is substantial risk to the
Commission that it would not prevail if this matter were
litigated to judgment because a court or a fact-finder could
readily conclude that Bank of America did not violate the federal
securities laws. More precisely, as explained in Part IV,
Defendant has a powerful claim that it engaged in no
misrepresentation or omission. Defendant has a further powerful
claim that any misrepresentation or omission, even if one was
found to exist, was immaterial and hence not actionable.
11. Such affidavit would have perfectly fitted the bill under normal
circumstances, where the Settlement was reached as part of standard
business practices of SEC, and where BAC was “highly regulated” (see
below). However, such were not at all the circumstances in the case at
hand.
12. Some of the fundamental questions that were not addressed at all, but
should not be ignored in such case:
a. Did Plaintiff and Defendant, separately and together, convey an intent to
fulfill their legal obligations relative to regulations of the SEC and their
enforcement?
b. Did they come with clean hands?
c. Was the SEC regulatory system considered as functional at all at this time?
d. Were there any reasons to believe that the court action by SEC, as well as
the Proposed Settlement did not represent good faith enforcement actions,
but instead were merely a show piece?
The litigation addressed the issue of bonuses, which surely was a public
pleaser and a headline grabber, but the evidence as a whole indicated that
SEC routinely failed and refused to enforce the fundamentals of the law at
CFC, and now at BAC.
e. Was instant litigation in and of itself a valid effectual litigation?
Dr Zernik identified sham court actions as a frequent occurrence in U.S. and
State Courts. Prof Grundfest, was uniquely qualified to assess such
questions as well. Even with limited access to court records, Dr Zernik
40 / 545
z Page 10/18 September 2, 2009

claimed that at present, the proceedings in the court under caption SEC v
BAC (1:09-cv-06829) were not deemed part of an effectual legal action.
13. The same agencies and the same U.S. officers have already run a U.S.
financial institution outside the realm of the law once before – at CFC, with
well-documented results. The U.S. officers and agencies which by now set
the grounds for a repeat of such circumstances at BAC were likely to cause
colossal harm to the U.S.
14. Prof Grundfest stated (p19, ¶44):
“First, Bank of America is a highly regulated entity.”
Assessment of that statement had to be an important part of the opinion, but
was missing in the current affidavit. It was also where the current opinion
was deficient, due to its deliberately narrow approach.
Furthermore, the proposed Settlement itself, was inseparable from the
current financial crisis, since it pertained to circumstances that would not
have come into being unless for the current crisis.
A. Prof Grundfest and Dr Zernik discussed the matters in February 2009 23
15. Around February 2009, Dr Zernik discussed with Prof Grundfest credible
evidence regarding material violations of the law at CFC prior t July 1, 2008,
by officers holding direct reporting duties, and refusal of SEC to enforce the
law. Such officers included first and foremost SANDOR SAMUELS – then-
CFC Chief Legal Officer, now- associate General Counsel of BAC, and
ANGELO MOZILO- CEO President of CFC. 24

16. Around February 2009, Dr Zernik discussed with Prof Grundfest credible
evidence regarding material violations of the law at BAC after July 1, 2008,
by officers holding direct reporting duties, and refusal of SEC to enforce the
law. Such officers included KENNETH LEWIS – CEO/President, JOE PRICE
- CFO, and TIMOTHY MAYOPOULOS – former General Counsel. 25
A. Examples of alleged violations of the law that were the basis for complaints
that CFC and BAC would not respond to, and SEC would not investigate.

firm to stop conduct that it had engaged in since July 2007. For all practical
purposes it was a repeat of the dishonest conduct by CFC relative to
employment of outside counsel, which was rebuked in the Texas court in
March 2008, 29 and which CFC promised not to repeat. The dishonest
conduct by Bryan Cave, LLP, was procured by CFC only days after Dr Zernik
sent several communications to Sandor Samuels and Angelo Mozilo,
regarding alleged criminalities that were perpetrated by the Legal
Department, under the guidance of Sandor Samuels. 30, 31 With that, Dr
Zernik established the direct involvement of such senior officers who held
direct reporting duty to SEC, and plausible deniability was lost.
19. Direct involvement of Sandor Samuels in alleged criminalities was further
established in January 2008, when he filed Notice of Interested Person in
Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) at the LA Superior Court. 32
20. The essence of the scheme, as Dr Zernik understood it limited access to
records was and is as follows:
a. Bryan Cave was procured in a roundabout way, and NOT as
counsel of record. Its mission was to engage in obstruction and
perversion of justice – the kind of conduct that is explicitly listed as
prohibited by the BAC Outside Counsel Procedures, 33 and BAC
Code of Ethics 34– “doing the right thing…”
b. Most likely, procurement of Bryan Cave, LLP services also
included, as was the case in Texas, 35 a “no communications
clause”, which prohibited it from ever communicating with CFC or
BAC.
c. Under such terms, Bryan Cave, LLP, then started appearing in
court, purporting to be authorized by CFC, and later, by BAC.
d. When Dr Zernik called the Legal Department of BAC after the July
1, 2008 merger, he was repeatedly informed by senior staff of the
BAC Legal Department that Bryan Cave, LLP, was NOT
authorized to appear on BAC’s behalf in court, or represent them
in any matter pertaining to Dr Zernik.

e. However, BAC never made any effort to stop such appearances,


even after multiple notices to officers of BAC, such as Lewis, Price,
Mayopoulos, and the Audit Committee.
f. Given that Bryan Cave, LLP, was NOT counsel of record, Mr
Samuels, Mr Mozilo, Mr Lewis, Mr Mayopoulos, Mr Price, and the
Audit Committee, probably decided that there was no reporting
requirement pursuant to Sarbanes Oxley Act (2002) regarding any
of the actions of Bryan Cave, LLP in violation of the law.
g. Bryan Cave, LLP, listed CFC, and BAC as “Non-Party”, in
appearances for over 2 years at the LA Superior Court. The Court
designated CFC and BAC interchangeably as “Plaintiff”,
“Defendant”, “Real Party in Interest”, “Intervenor”, and more, all
with no legal foundation. Such conduct of court proceedings in
and of itself is alleged as evidence of various criminalities.
h. Given their self-designation as “Non-Party”, CFC, and later BAC -
with the import of Sandor Samuels as Associate General Counsel,
probably determined that there was no reporting requirement
regarding such court action as litigation either.
i. Bryan Cave, LLP, was left free to engage in alleged obstruction
and perversion of justice, as long as it was not directly traceable to
Mr Sandor Samuels and Mr Angelo Mozilo.
21. Superimposed on this basic generic CFC scheme, was a secondary scheme
related to a fictitious “Protective Order” in the case of Dr Zernik:
a. Bryan Cave claimed that Dr Zernik was subject to an effectual
Protective Order from 2007 by Judge Jacqueline Connor.36
b. Such purported Protective Order was falsely claimed to prohibit Dr
Zernik from communicating with anybody except Bryan Cave, LLP,
regarding CFC, and BAC.
c. In the two year that Bryan Cave, LLP and CFC repeatedly made
such false claims in court, Bryan Cave, LLP, never produced such
mysterious Protective Order that directed all communications to
Bryan Cave, LLP.
d. Moreover, the prohibition on communications with BAC, was a ex
post facto construction by Bryan Cave, LLP and Judge Terry
Friedman, based on the argument that BAC was an affiliate of
36
Judge Jacqueline Connor was best remembered for derailing the First Rampart Trial (2000). Dr
Zernik claimed that investigation of his allegations regarding conduct of Judge Jacqueline Connor in
Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) carried particular public policy significance, because it documented in
great detail alleged racketeering by Judge Connor. Judge Connor’s conduct in the First Rampart Trial
could be claimed as the direct cause for the continued false confinement in Los Angeles of thousands
of Rampart-FIPs (falsely imprisoned persons), a full decade after investigations demonstrated that
they were falsely convicted and falsely sentenced. Therefore, clarifying the nature of Judge Connor
conduct would facilitate resolution in the case of the Rampar-FIPs.

CFC, and that therefore, the provisions of the non-existent


Protective Order from 2007, applied to BAC, following the
acquisition of CFC by BAC in July 2008.
e. Based on the two schemes described above, Bryan Cave, LLP,
engaged in various acts of obstruction, perversion, intimidation,
harassment, and retaliation against Dr Zernik in the past 2 years,
including, but not limited to two void, not voidable, judgments by
Judge Terry Friedman for Contempt, a quasi-criminal record.
f. The second of the two contempt charges stemmed from Dr
Zernik’s conduct that consisted of calling the office of BAC General
Counsel, and establishing repeatedly that Bryan Cave, LLP, was
NOT authorized to appear in court on behalf of BAC.
22. Regarding the law-firm of BRYAN CAVE, LLP, one must note that Dr Zernik
repeatedly notified the St Louis headquarter and Don Lent, Chair of the Firm,
of conduct of Att Amberg and Att Moldawsky in Los Angeles offices. In one
such instance Dr Zernik was notified that the risk assessment committee of
Bryan Cave, LLP, was fully informed of the case. 37
23. One must also note that Bryan Cave, LLP, was considered as close to the
“establishment” as you could get. Wikipedia stated the following:
Its partners include former US Senators Jack Danforth and Alan Dixon,
former New York Mayor Ed Koch, former Indiana Attorney General Jeff
Modisett, and former Tennessee Attorney General Charles Burson, who also
served as former Counsel to Vice-President Al Gore. 38
It was noted with special concern that Mr Jeff Modisett, former Indiana
Attorney General, was the Managing Partner of the Los Angeles Office, and
was fully aware of the conduct of Att Amberg and Moldawsky.
24. The other large law firm that was directly involved in various types of alleged
criminality with the judges of the LA Superior Court was SHEPPARD,
MULLIN, RICHTER & HAMPTON LLP. Attorney MOHAMMAD
KESHAVARZI, an Associate, operated under the supervision of Partner
PHILIP DAVIS. Involvement of Sheppard Mullin raised special concerns
since Judge CHARLES “TIM” MCCOY, former partner at Sheppard Mullin,
was Presiding Judge of the LA Superior Court during part of the period. He
was personally informed of alleged criminalities by Judge Jacqueline
Connor, but refused to take any action.
25. Att Keshavarzi and Judge Connor together perpetrated various frauds such
as described below:

Mullin, LLP, and Judge Jacqueline Connor: November 2006: Ex Parte Sur
Reply in Motion to expunge lis pendens,
In such proceeding, two days before a noticed hearing, Att Mohammad
Keshavarzi, of the law firm of Sheppard Mullin, with ruling in his favor by
Judge Jacqueline Connor, entered for the first time new evidence for such
motion – false and deliberately misleading banking records procured from
Countrywide’s Branch Manager Maria McLaurin. Dr Zernik’s counsel entered
an evidentiary objection. Not only was the admission of evidence untimely,
the record itself had no valid authentication, and was also an unsigned bank
letter. Judge Connor overruled, but never issued evidentiary rulings, as
usual.
The CFC invalid October 26, 2004 Underwriting Letter,39 was
misrepresented as an October 14, 2004 underwriting letter, and a whole set
of false claims was fabricated around such banking document false
representation. It was repeatedly entered in court as evidence after that
date.
The false representation was since then confirmed by a fraud expert. 40
Angelo Mozilo and Sandor Samuels, were repeatedly asked to either
authenticate or repudiate the false representations, starting June 2007, but
refused to respond at all, to this very day. Similarly - the BAC Audit
Committee, Kenneth Lewis, Joe Price, and Timothy Mayopoulos, were asked
to either authenticate or repudiate the false representation by Maria
McLaurin. So far BAC refused to respond either.
27. EXAMPLE #3: September 15, 2004 Real Estate Purchasing Agreement,41
a. Copy produced by CFC in legal subpoena –
Purportedly faxed from Washington State by Victor Parks to CFC
San Rafael on October 25, 2004, 5:03 pm.
Truly faxed from Nivie Samaan in LA to her husband Jae Arre
Lloyd in LA on October 25, 2005, 5:03 pm (per fax log). CFC loan
file included no evidence to authenticate the record. However, it
was speculated that it was transmitted at some later time by Jae
Arre Lloyd, a convicted felon and “Loan Originator” for CFC to
Maria McLaurin, Branch Manager, as a PDF attachment.
b. Copy produced by Mara Escrow –
Was designated by Mara Escrow counsel – “the clean copy”. All
fax header imprints were stripped away from the record, and in
addition some hand signatures were moved around. Most likely
was a scanner + Photoshop type job. No authentication was
provided for such record either.
39
October 26, 2004 Underwriting Letter was falsely represented as an October 14, 2004 or mid-
October, 2004 Underwriting Letter. It came with no signature and no valid authentication:

none of them an authenticated record, and almost all misrepresented.

Based on Dr Zernik’s experience in LA County – none of the financial


institutions involved complied with UETA 42 regarding electronic
transactions and transmission of banking records. Moreover, it is alleged
the ALL of them engaged in various schemes of falsifying the
authentication of fax communications, even when they had available to
them the most sophisticated devices to ensure automatic authentication.
a. CFC – engaged in the most elaborate scheme – where anonymous
fax header imprints, listing date and time, but not sender, were
imprinted in an entirely different time and place, while the
transmission of the records was most likely as PDF attachments to
emails. The email cover sheet, was then eliminated from the loan file.
Such practice was also contrary to the stated policy of CFC. 43
b. Mara Escrow – a subsidiary of Old Republic Title Insurance. The
escrow officer, Gail Hershkowitz, eventually provided Sheppard Mullin
a declaration that inferred that the contract record, which she kept on
escrow file, was false (which was a true statement), and the false
contract record produced by CFC was authentic (which was a false
statement).
c. Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage –
Produced the same ”clean”, unauthenticated copy as Mara Escrow,
and it was likely that such “clean” copy originated from Coldwell-
Banker.
Financial institutions that were not publicly traded and engaged in
alleged falsification of fax transmissions:
d. USC Credit Union – only a few months after the consummation of the
fraud by Att David Pasternak, Dr Zernik realized that the Credit Union,
where he held a mortgage, had to collude in the fraud as well.
When Dr Zernik demanded records to establish the authorization to
execute transactions in his account without his knowledge, it was
claimed that transactions were initially executed based on a phone
call, with no written documentation at all. Later, some papers were
produced, but none with fax header imprints. Various versions were
recounted regarding the authentication of the records. Regardless, no
record of a valid Judgment or a Writ of Execution was ever produced,
since none existed.
28. An opinion by Prof Grundfest, which would address the refusal of SEC to
investigate alleged material violations of the law, as seen in the employment
of false outside counsel in the case of Borrower Parsley and in the case of
Dr Zernik, and also as seen in the production of false banking records as
seen in the case of Borrower Parsley, the case of Borrower Hill, in the case
of Dr Zernik, and as evidenced in a study by the United States trustee, would
provide essential services relative to public policy concerns.

29. An opinion by Prof Grundfest which would address the refusal of CFC, and
later BAC, to respond in any way to complaints of alleged production fraud
banking records in the case of Dr Zernik would also provide essential service
relative to public policy concerns.
A. The Mergers – secret agreements – and current Proposed Settlement
30. BAC is unique in its significance among U.S. financial institutions, not only by
size, but also relative to its role in the current crisis. BAC acquired as part of
the unfolding of the crisis both Merrill Lynch and Countrywide (CFC). Both of
these acquisitions were transacted under unusual circumstances, involved
conduct by U.S. officer that possibly amounted to coercing officers of BAC to
act contrary to their better judgment, and to engage in violations of the law.
31. Concerns were raised regarding compliance with the law by both U.S. and
BAC senior officers relative to at least the former acquisition. A letter by NY
Attorney General Andrew Cuomo to U.S. Senate earlier this year,44 led some
media to call for indictment of the Chairman of the Federal Reserve! 45 In
conjunction with the latter transaction, BAC was awarded a waiver on the
deposits limit - a key provision for limiting the risks to U.S. markets as a
whole by default of any single institution. Combined with the other indicators
of what took place at BAC since the merger, it appeared as a deliberate
attempt to set up the grounds for another catastrophic financial institution
failure.
32. It was safe to bet that in conjunction with both acquisitions, agreements or
understandings were reached between senior corporate officers and senior
U.S. officers under the Bush administration in its final days, which were not
in publicly accessible then, and are not publicly accessible now. Such
agreements or understandings were never duly reviewed in compliance with
corporate governance, were never reviewed by U.S. Congress, and were
likely to have included provisions that were not within the authority of such
U.S. officers to offer, or within the authority of BAC officers to accept in
compliance with the law.
33. For example, as described below, it is likely that in the course of acquisition
of CFC, BAC and its officers acquired not only substantial financial liabilities,
but also legal liabilities of both civil and criminal nature. It was unreasonable
to assume that officers of BAC that agreed to the transaction, even under
duress, did not demand, and were not provided some assurances in this
regard.
34. It were such agreements that were believed to be the reason for entire
refusal of all law enforcement agencies, such as SEC, and also the Audit
Committee of BAC to respond to complaints regarding violations of the law in
any way. Such agreement were also likely to be the perceived permission
for Sandor Samuels, now at BAC, and Bryan Cave, LLP, to continue to this
date the deception regarding outside counsel engagement. Needless to say-

with that – alleged corruption was introduced by U.S. officers into BAC
operations.
35. It were such agreements that were believed to be the reason for the lack of
evidence that BAC engaged in any attempt to enforce the law at CFC
following the merger.
A. The proposed settlement now before the court was most likely merely a
distraction, relative to the refusal of SEC to enforce the law at BAC
36. Therefore, conduct of Plaintiff and Defendant, which resulted in the
settlement now before the court, cannot be understood or assessed without
discovery of such confidential agreements. The potential existence of such
confidential agreements was discussed with Prof Grundfest in February
2009, as the only plausible explanation of a range of fact in the matter, which
otherwise remain inexplicable. An opinion by Prof Grundfest that would
address such concerns and lead to discovery of such agreements would also
provide a uniquely valued service to public policy concerns, and also for
stability of U.S. financial markets.
A. Alternative view – refusal to investigate was the result of collusion with the
judiciary in alleged criminalities
37. An alternative, but similar explanation, was offered by decorated veteran FBI
agent James Wedick, in an email note, in August 2008, soon after he
finished discussion of the matter with FBI Los Angeles Special Agent
Connolly. 46 The explanation that was provided there, was that investigation
of the case would have inevitably resulted in addressing alleged judicial
corruption, and therefore, FBI would not investigate crime, which both James
Wedick and Special Agent Connolly, per that email, agreed had taken place.
38. In practice, the two explanations converge into the same effect: Following
the merger of CFC and BAC, BAC engaged in alleged criminalities in
collusion with the judges of the LA Superior Court, therefore, BAC attain the
status of immunity.
A. Immunities, or indemnities for future criminalities – as practiced in California
today.
39. In the discussion in February 2009, Dr Zernik suggested to Prof Grundfest
that there was no way to comprehend the conduct of officers of BAC, unless
as based on assurances that had been obtained that amounted to what Dr
Zernik designated: Pardons for past criminalities and indemnities for future
criminalities.
40. Prof Grundfest was disturbed by the concept, and dismissed it as impossible
– since it was on its face in violation of the law. Dr Zernik was in no position
to challenge Prof Grundfest’s analysis of the legalities involved. However, Dr
Zernik pointed out to Prof Grundfest already in February 2009 the legal
practices in the U.S. today among corporations and government, as seen in
example (a) below. Dr Zernik was not aware of Example (b), which took
place around the same time.

a. December 7, 2007 – Indemnity agreement for Mara Escrow, a


subsidiary of Old Republic Title Insurance.
On December 7, 2007, Dr Zernik participated, in order to record his
protest, in two ex parte appearances noticed by Att DAVID
PASTERNAK, a close friend of Sandor Samuels – then Chief Legal
Officer of CFC. Att Pasternak acted as a purported Court Officer in a
purported action of the LA Superior Court, where Dr Zernik was
named Defendant. On December 7, 2007 Att Pasternak, filed an
application for an indemnity agreement for Mara Escrow, for alleged
future criminality – to collude with him in the fraudulent conveyance of
title. Judge Patricia Collins never found any problem with that (but she
secretly voided her actions later, with no notice to parties). 47,48, 49,

Samaan v Zernik (SC087400), complaint filed October 25, 2005, at the LA Superior Court, but

third years now, most times represented by a large international law firm – Bryan Cave, LLP, albeit –
such appearances, at least part of the time were without any authorization, but with full agreement of
the clients.[1] The Court designated CFC, and now BAC “Plaintiff”, “Defendant”, “Intervenor”, “Cross
Defendant”, “Real parties in Interest”, all with no foundation at all.[2] The court made representation
that were deliberately deceptive regarding entry of Judgment on August 9, 2007, for “specific
performance of real estate purchase agreement”, but court file to this date marks the judgment as
“pending”. [3], [4] The Court forced me to displace under the threat of force based on an order, which
on its face is of questionable nature at best. [5]. Att Pasternak purported to conduct conveyance of title
on my home on behalf of the Court, which was opined by decorated FBI veteran, James Wedick as

The California Constitution prohibited ex post facto laws. California


Code prohibited indemnity agreements for future violations of the law.
Neither stopped the Governor from signing on February 20, 2009 into
law the Sbx-2-11 which provided pardons for LA Superior Court
judges for any criminalities related to the past taking of “not permitted”
payments, moreover, it included indemnities for any future taking of
“not permitted” payments. 53 It was included in the much larger budget
bill through the efforts of a lobbyist retained by the judges, with no
referral to committee, and in violation of the rules of the California
legislature. Moreover, it was intended to undo a ruling of the California
Court of Appeals, 4th District, which ruled on October 10. 2008 54 that
determined that payments of ~$45,000 per judge per year, taken
secretly for over a decade by all ~450 judges of the LA Superior Court
were “not permitted” on Constitutional grounds. Media called them
“Bribes”.

41. Dr Zernik’s experiences– where regulatory agencies refuse to perform their


duties and investigate CFC or BAC
In February 2009, Prof Grundfest was intrigued by my ability to file with FBI
office in LA in mid January 2007 a complaint backed up by credible
evidence, which claimed that CFC was involved in various types of
criminalities, including large scale mortgage frauds against the U.S.
government. Furthermore, by March 2007, I filed an Addendum with FBI in
LA, with rough estimates that the scope of liabilities to U.S. government from
the fraud in lending by CFC would be in the range of hundreds of billions. At
that point, Special Agent Vallese, from the White Collar Crime Squad,
headed by Steven Goldman, told me that there was no interest in my
complaint, and please not to file anymore papers.
42. Dr Zernik also informed Prof Grundfest in February 2009 how he had filed
written complains in the previous 2 years with other U.S. regulatory and law
enforcement agencies as well, but all without exception refused to even
investigate the matter. In contrast, banking and corporate regulators,
including in particular SEC – failed to prevent the current crisis from
happening, failed to detect It ahead of time, and saw no reason for
indictments even today.
43. Dr Zernik also informed Prof Grundfest of his experience regarding FOIA
requests to bank regulators – he could never retrieve even his own written
complaints from such agencies, and Dr Zernik suspected that such
complaints regarding CFC, and now BAC, are routinely destroyed.
44. In that context, Dr Zernik also informed Prof Grundfest that his impression
from a phone conversation with Att Samuels Bezek at SEC, was the same –
that none of Dr Zernik’s complaints were ever logged, and that such

complaints were possibly eliminated. Att Bezek objected to Dr Zernik’s


interpretation of the conversation. However, Att Bezek never explicitly denied
that none of Dr Zernik’s complaints were ever logged, and that such
complaints were eliminated. 55
45. FBI refuses to perform its duties, while making public statements about
investigations that must be deemed deliberately aimless.
The contrast is especially stark when it comes to performance of the FBI. I
filed with FBI initial complaints in January to March 2007, with evidence and
claims of criminality by officers of CFC. By June/July 2007, I had solid
credible evidence of criminality by both Sandor Samuels – then Chief Legal
Officer, and Angelo Mozilo – then CEO/Chair. The claims of wrongful
conduct focused on the one hand on alleged corruption of underwriting in the
San Rafael Branch of Countrywide Home Loans, Inc, with special focus on
operation of data processing and underwriting monitoring systems - EDGE,
and on the other hand on the conduct of the Legal Department of CFC, in
particular relative to conduct of the Chief Legal Officer – Sandor Samuels.
As such, he also held direct reporting duties to SEC.
In the two and a half years that passed, Dr Zernik’s assessment were
supported, at least in part, by events that unfolded. However, Dr Zernik was
not aware of any corrective action taken by either U.S. agencies, CFC, or
BAC to address such material deficiencies.
As part of the dialog, Dr Zernik also forwarded to Prof Grundfest some
papers, which should mostly deemed as public records, or at least were
based on and quoted public records- court records from California state and
U.S. District Courts.
46. The crisis was directly related to CFC litigation practices.
The claim that a key to understanding the current financial crisis was in law
and litigation practices (compared to the focus on accountancy in the Enron
crisis), could be claimed to be born out by market behavior.
a. December 27, 2007 – Recreated Letters filed by CFC as evidence in PA
court.
The final collapse of CFC was not related to, or attributed to, performance of
some loan portfolio. It was the direct result of the publication 56 of the fact
that CFC attorneys filed in a PA Court evidence including three (3)
“recreated letters”.57 The news was published January 8, 2008, led to
tremors in markets, and led U.S. officers to chaperon the negotiations that
led to the January 11, 2008 joint announcement of the acquisition of CFC by
BAC.

b. March 5, 2008 – Memorandum Opinion rebuking CFC legal practices,


and U.S. Trustee study documenting abuse across the U.S.
Deficiencies and non-compliance related to the Legal Department of CFC
were also highlighted two months later in a 72-page memorandum opinion
entered by the Honorable Jeff Bohm. 58 Such opinion was described by
media as “rebuke”, and was based in part of a year long study by the United
States Trustee across the U.S., which showed a pattern of abuse of the legal
process by CFC legal department, which led Judge Bohm to state that CFC
and its outside counsel
'have shown a disregard for the professional and ethical obligations of the legal
profession and judicial system'. (p8),
Hearings were also held in U.S. Congress59 regarding questions and
concerns that the current crisis was fueled at least in part through
wrongdoing in the courts.
47. The current crisis is likely to transform U.S. social fabric
A separate claim, supporting the need to carefully examine instant Proposed
Settlement- Some of the most conspicuous misrepresentations in the current
crisis were by Mr Samuels, to the effect that conduct of CFC was aimed to
widen the base of home-owning middle-class in U.S. 60 I believe that some of
the data may already be publicly available, and projections must also have
been generated regarding the expected outcome of the current crisis on U.S.
social structure – in significant changes in asset distribution and undermining
of the home-owning middle-class that evolved over many decades.
48. The current crisis undermined confidence in the U.S. currency, and therefore
– shackles the U.S. government
The current crisis also undermined confidence in the U.S. financial
institutions and in the U.S. currency. Based on concerns of that kind, the
President of the People’s Bank of China floated earlier this year a proposal
for the creation of a new international currency, aimed to replace the dollar.
In addition, the current crisis undermined the U.S. government ability to
control its currency, which some would claim amounted to loss of
sovereignty. A number of high level U.S. delegations visited Beijing in the
past few years, the latest, in May 2009, was led by Treasury Secretary
Geithner. In all instances the Chinese government declined to cooperate
with U.S. requests to devalue the dollar. Media reported that in the May visit,
questions related to U.S. financial institution stability, and the competency of
U.S. banking regulatory agencies were at the center of Chinese concerns.
49. Recent changes in the Board at BAC fell short of instilling confidence.
A look at changes in the corporate Board at BAC in recent months, shows
fast turnover of members of the Board. The Audit Committee, for example,
was considerably shrunk. Public figures like General TOMMY FRANK and
Admiral JOSEPH FRUEHER departed. The latter is particularly noted, since

he was former ambassador to China, and therefore was probably an asset in


increasing Chinese confidence in the U.S. financial systems. The addition to
the Audit Committee to replace those who departed was Don Powell.
50. Concerns abound regarding the credibility of financial data at BAC following
the acquisitions, and recent periodic reports by BAC resorted to the use of
“Taxonomies” in accounting, in sharp departure from previously established
accounting practices. President Obama’s administration, on its part, soon
after inauguration floated the idea of resorting to “Stress Tests” in assessing
the stability of U.S. financial institutions. The proposal, in and of itself had to
be seen as an admission of inadequacy of financial data available to the
President which may be derived in part from periodic reports by corporations.
With that – again – there was departure from established practices, and
credibility was undermined. Obviously, the credibility of U.S. banking
regulators is constantly doubted.
51. In addition – Dr Zernik’s experience demonstrated denial of access to the
courts, in matters pertaining to violations of the law by judges and by CFC or
BAC.
In addition, in papers and discussions with Prof Grundfest, Dr Zernik
described his personal experience, related to claims of wrongdoing by CFC
and BAC, which could be summed up as a alleged denial of access to the
courts. As part of the context of any banking regulatory system one must
consider the judicial system in which it was embedded. Conditions in the
U.S. at present are such that one was denied access to the courts when
attempting to address grievances related to alleged criminalities by CFC and
BAC, which regulators and law enforcement refused to investigate. 61
Prof Grundfest was uniquely qualified to assess current conditions relative to
the ability of an individual wrong by BAC or CFC to address such grievances
in U.S. courts.

52. A Dark Image – hypothetical narrative for events described above:


Following was a hypothetical narrative, aimed at clarifying where one had to
follow the money…
An alleged “cult of criminality” or the alleged LA judiciary racket (“LA-JR”) is
well established in the LA Superior Court. In its current manifestation is
dated back to 1985 – and installation of the first computerized case
management system “Sustain”, which was alleged as the enabling tool of the
racket.
The alleged “cult of criminality” among the judiciary engaged in various
criminalities in the courts, including alleged real estate frauds, and also false
imprisonments on a large scale.
Using FBI to their advantage, the LA-JR gained control of Countrywide.

z Page 24/18 September 2, 2009

Such large banking institutions from then on was able to engage in various
alleged criminalities under immunity, but had to pay protection fees on a
regular basis to a large group of patrons. Such allocations were in part the
reason for the collapse of the institution, but also the reason that accounting
was deliberately made incomprehensible.
With the pending collapse of their protégé in January 2008, the LA-JR was
not willing to lose such asset. Therefore – the merger with BAC.
Directors and Officers of BAC, who could not tolerate the new circumstances
simply left. Elimination of the deposit limit was undertaken in order to ensure
that the LA-JR never had to go through this one again… Next time around,
BAC would be too big to fail… and the LA-JR would then own the U.S.
Treasury itself…
What was Prof Grundfest’s role going to be in such narrative? Potential new
Chair of the SEC?
Please notify me by Monday, August 31, 2009 5:00 pm, of your intent in this regard.

BEYOND VOTING MACHINES – CASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS


Public-policy concerns based on review of a court’s central computer system
Joseph Zernik, Los Angeles

Voting machines focused the computing community’s attention on its critical duty in the
safeguard of democratic institutions in the transition to a digital society. Here we review,
possibly for the first time ever, a Case Management System (CMS), which is the
cornerstone of any court today. Sustain, the Los Angeles Superior Court’s CMS, introduced
in the early 1980’s, and based on dBase or one of its derivatives, today reveals a system that
combined with human neglect and abuse, contributes to the production of contradictory,
false and misleading records, that are deliberately hidden from the public, under the claim of
“privileged” status 1. Circumstantial evidence also strongly suggests that such records from
Sustain are directly available to the California Court of Appeal without the knowledge or
notice to the parties involved 2. Our analysis is based on limited records since Sustain
records are typically not accessible to the public (in what appears as defiance of CRC 2.500
et seq), and mostly explored internal inconsistencies and incompleteness of the records
among various paper and electronic sources:
1) Minute Orders - are written by the judge after each proceeding – in open court or
chamber, and the clerk is required to have them mailed to each party and entered into the
court file; with Clerk’s Certificate of Mailing and Entry, bearing his/her hand signature, all
on same day as the proceeding.
2) Case History - a report, which in Los Angeles Superior Court also serves as Register of
Actions - the definitive formal concise record of all transactions in a given court case, and
together with Indexes of All Cases – one of the two primary documents that allow oversight
of the integrity of the courts.
Our findings can be summarized as follows:
a. Inherently Invalid Data Entries - Case History report listed documents as filed on dates
that were at times years prior to the date of filing of the claims - the start point of the
case (Fig 1). Such obviously invalid data entirely undermined the validity and
reliability of the record as a whole. Additional data provided conclusive evidence that

-1-
57 / 545
entries in this record were critically modified later than the date which appeared as
intended to convey the date of entry of such data.
b. Routine back-dating of minute orders to date of the proceedings - Minute orders that
were retrieved from memory, invariably showed different dates as the “Date Minutes
Entered” compared to copies of respective records that were retrieved from paper file.
The copies from the paper file were back-dated and without exception were precisely
dated on the date of the proceedings, as required (Fig 4a). The records from electronic
memory, showed that the true entry date was at times months later (Fig 4b). Such
findings undermine the validity of any dates recorded in this system, and the validity and
reliability of the system as central depository of the court’s litigation records.
c. Reversing orders with no notice to parties in a case - Certain minute orders that in paper
court file carried valid values for entry (Fig 2a), carried invalid dates , such as
“00/00/00” or “33/33/33”, in the copies retrieved from memory (Fig 2b), which were
otherwise identical in their text. Such invalid entry date invalidates a legal record, and
indeed, it appears that such invalidation was intentional, since 00/00/00 is listed as the
day the records are to be disposed (Fig 1), indeed - the common feature of the
invalidated records was that they were unusual, and if valid, would have likely raised
concerns upon review. But the paper file does not include any evidence that such
invalidation, if indeed intentional, was ever noticed to the parties in the case. Possibly,
this specific field was programmed to accept dates as data, and also as an invalidation
command, the latter – formulated in a date format, in order to reduce memory
requirements.
d. Contradictory recordings of critical data - In one extreme case, the electronic record
alone includes recording of a Demurrer - a decisive action, which can nip a litigation in
the bud - as both “Granted”, “Overruled” (Denied), and vacated (Fig 3). Again, there is
room for concern that such ambiguity was introduced to camouflage a decision (here –
overruling of the demurrer) that if clearly recorded, would have raised concerns
regarding integrity of the proceedings.
e. Partial recordings, discriminating against the paper/public record - Certain minute orders
that appeared in copies retrieved from memory were altogether missing from
counterparts retrieved from paper files. The opposite appears to never happen. Such
discrimination against paper – which in this case is also the only public record – was
apparently intentional – beyond the one sidedness of the omissions, certain court

-2-
58 / 545
proceedings were marked in electronic records as “Proceedings not recorded” and then
indeed were missing from the paper file.
f. Critical legal records that fail to comply with any standard at all - In one extreme case, a
judge who was requested to disqualify for a cause (- served with a Statement of
Prejudice) responded with a combination of a Strike and Answer (a combination that is
not allowed per Judge’s Bench Guide of the California Judicial Council), later than the
10 days allowed by law (CCP §170.3), back-dated it 11 days - to day 1, then added an
improvised judge’s certificate of mailing for self (not allowed), addressed to one party
only (not allowed), unsigned (unverified), never mailed out at all, and yet entered into
the electronic record, but not the paper/public record.
The operation of such CMS’s as Sustain puts at peril any notion of Due Process - a basic
right, presumably guaranteed by the 1st, 5th and 14th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
The next generation of such systems must distill and mimic the essence of some older court
traditions. On his own, neither a Clerk, nor a Judge, could mail the minutes out. The Judge
could rule, order, adjudicate, but had to rely on the Clerk, who had the sole authority to
incorporate such pronouncements into the formal records and thus make them actions. 3 No
such segregation of authorities appears to have been implemented in Sustain. A new
generation of such systems, introduced under public comment and challenge (pursuant to the
Rule-Making Enabling Act, which was entirely defied in setting up Sustain, on more aspect
than one) must help enforce the safeguard of court records that are coherent, consistent and
transparent, in all respects, including exact timing of "birth" (at the bench or in chambers)
true time and form at “entry” (by the Clerk), with adequate due notice and service to parties,
after which further read/write actions by any party must not be allowed. This is not the case
with Sustain.--and other systems currently in use 4. Contemporary encryption, protection,
transaction–handling, and security methods, can provably implement such procedures at
very low cost [at least if 99.9999 ...% security is acceptable]. Supported by re-indoctrination
of court personnel regarding their duties to the public at large – a CMS could be a guardian
of Due Process. Yet, full transparency of Public Records is possibly the most cost/effective
long-term security measure. Sustain must be an extreme – a data entry and a legal deposit
system with what appears like effectively no quality assurance measures whatsoever.
Sustain, the CMS reviewed in here, allows the generation and propagation of court records
of quality that is far removed from any standard that would reasonably support Due Process
of the Law.

This short communication is not intended as a legal review. ‘The basis for open
court records is a common law right “to inspect and copy public records and

The result could be an absurd where Appellant/Petitioner’s brief is based on one
record, and the review is based on another, materially different record, that the
appellant/petitioner was never even privy to, and 100% of trial court decisions are
upheld.

CCP § 167 provides: "Any act required or permitted to be performed by the clerk of a court may
be performed by a judge thereof." A judge can perform all acts performed by a clerk, but
neither a clerk nor a judge is allowed to execute proof of service for self.

Some exposure to C|C – the California Court of Appeal CMS, and Pacer – the
Federal CMS. Pacer is by far superior, albeit, they all reflect a combination where
the operators are equally important. As a rule of thumb, any CMS which presents
a Register of Actions to the public that is different than that used by the court
should be held suspect, and same for any CMS that presents a “Docket”, or
Register of Actions where entries are not enumerated. Pacer’s transparency is
admirable, e.g. operators are required to enter initials with their comments. The
open record and visible and identifiable signature are critical for instilling
recognition of accountability. Notice and Service are largely automated through
email, an example how technology improved Due Process, but Pacer at present
harshly discriminates against the Pro Se party, exposing him/her to multiple levels
of human bias in filing and entry that the licensed attorney, much better equipped
for such encounters is entirely spared.

Cal Code Jud Ethics 3B(2)
“The rule of law must never be confused with tyranny of the courts”
Anonymous

125. How do we know that 00/00/00 means voiding/disposing of minute


order?
This question is critical for understanding the records in Sustain, since the Dates Minutes Entered appears as 00/00/00 on
the last page of specific minute orders in Sustain, but does not appear on the counterparts in paper court file. The conclusion
that such notation in Sustain means 00/00/00 that the respective minute order was disposed, or voided, although no notice or
service was provided to parties, was based on the reasons listed below.

In a visit to the Santa Monica Courthouse on Nov 14, 2008, I met with H. James McGlynn, Administrator II, assistant to Mr
James Manczarek, the top administrator of the Santa Monica Courthouse. I asked him regarding the meaning of the
00/00/00 as the date minutes entered on specific minute orders. He answered that I should just ignore such notations, since
the are just “computer glitch”. When I asked him if I may see a Sustain manual to verify that his answer was correct. His
answer was “Mr Zernik, you asked that question before, and you know that you are not allowed to see that”.

The fact that the Los Angeles Superior Court allows itself to run a register of actions and minute orders with secret notations
that would not bee understandable by most readers, and that officials of the court try to mislead litigants in the reading of the
records, in and of itself makes such records fraudulent.

1) Review of the electronic copies of the minute order, we see numerous minute orders that were aborted or deleted
(and it begs questions why). But almost all of them show 00/00/00 either as the date of the event or the date minutes
entered. And it is obvious that these were not meant to be valid minute orders.

2) The minute orders that appear in paper court file, but were voided by changing the date minutes entered to 00/00/00
are not any kind of minute orders. They are divided into two groups, with some overlap:

a. Minute Order where a judge ruled in blatant violation of the law: For example:

i. On Nov 5, 2007 , Judge Segal granted Samaan a 4-day notice hearing on motion to appoint a
receiver. What kind of receiver? Not any kind that is allowed by law. Therefore, he secretly
voided that decision.

ii. On Dec 26, 2007, Judge Rosenberg denied any and all my Due Process requests, but he
immediately voided his own decision, secretly.

iii. On Jan 30, 2008, Judge Friedman denied my request for the $750,000 that were purportedly the
proceeds from the sale of my home. And he denied it with prejudice, and threatened sanctions if I
ask for it again. But then he immediately voided his decision. Secretly.

b. Minute Orders where the case would be pegged to the Master Calendar:

i. Judge Goodman’s Oct 3, 2007 Recusal – voided.

ii. Judge Lisa Hart-Cole, Dec 7, 2007 Recusal per CCP §170.6 – voided.

iii. Judge Friedman March 19, 2008 response to disqualification – voided.

c. On page 1 of Case History, upper right corner – until there is a judgment in the case, the Date of Disposal is
00/00/00.

d. On Feb 5, 2007, Judge Connor was going to issue Att Cummings a minute order continuing the hearing,
since I was late for the hearing. But once I arrived she writes – since defendant arrives, I am vacating the
minute order and writing a new one. And indeed we find a 2/05/07 Minute Order with 00/00/00 for date.

CASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS (CMS’S) AND THE COURTS:


LONG-TERM CALIFORNIA PUBLIC POLICY CONCERNS, AND ACUTE
PROBLEMS IN THE LOS ANGELES SUPERIOR COURT.
Part II – Registers of Actions and Indexes of All Cases – Critical
Safeguards that are Public Records

Joseph Zernik

This report presents findings, based on limited access to “Sustain”- Los Angeles
County’s Superior Court Case Management System (CMS), the California Court of
Appeals Case Management System, and the U.S. Circuit Courts Case Management
System (Pacer). Such systems are the governing system in the courts today, since the
key documents in court administration, in court review, and in safeguard of the conduct
of the courts – Registers of Actions, and Indexes of All Cases, are nowhere on paper any
longer.
We hold that these instruments are critical for the integrity of our democratic system,
and that traditions that were developed over hundreds of years to ensure the safeguard
of the system were hastily discarded in the transition to digital court management,
with no public scrutiny.
Our study is based on limited access to these system. Moreover, it is compromised by
the bias introduced by one of the authors, who is an interested party. However, he
obtained unusual insights into these systems that are still of critical significance in
drawing attention to systems that have so far escaped public scrutiny. We could not
find a single reference in the computers/public policy area to this question.

63 / 545
When it comes to the Federal Court, Pacer clearly holds a Docket – or Register of
Actions each case. The system can be seen as a model – it is transparent – easily
accessible, and provides additional valuable reports such as the Related Transactions.
Pacer allows the litigants who are counsels to post their papers directly online. That
feature alone, is held by this writer as a unique guarantee of justice, and the
establishing of new rights and freedoms in conjunction with the transition to digital
technology, when other courts acted otherwise. The significance of Pacer in
establishing Federal Courts as a standard will surely will be appreciated with the
passage of time.
The key

Sustain is the governing system in that court today, since its introduction was
associated with the elimination of the paper Registers of Actions and Indexes of All
Cases. CMS’s in most counties and most states of the U.S.A. today assume similar
central position in the Court House, but CMS’s somehow managed to largely escape
public scrutiny and public awareness. In the case of Sustain, the public at large, as well
as litigants and counsels have minimal, if any access to the system. Therefore, the
current report presents unique collection of records. The current report focuses on
Sustain’s recording of dates and signatures, particularly – dates and signatures as
pertaining to Minute Orders and to the Certificate of Mailing by the Clerk/Notice of
Entry of Order, which is a part of the Minute Order which carries authentication. The
processing of Minute Orders is seemingly one of the most routine and mundane court
procedures.

Our results indicate that the records of Minute Orders found in the paper Court File are
routinely back-dated, misstating the date that the orders were in fact issued. It may
also be deemed, upon legal review, as misidentification and misrepresentation of legal
records. Neither the paper Court File, nor Sustain, the computerized records, retain

-2-

64 / 545
adequate records of Minute Orders and Certificates of their Mailing. It appears that the
widest variation from standard procedures appear in proceedings of unusual nature,
but that correlation needs to be better documented. It appears that many of these
deficiencies could not exist if features supporting them were not provided in the
software. The availability of such features or routine use of such features in a Case
Management System is unreasonable, and it may require action for the safeguard of
Due Process. It remains to be found if such features were originally built into the
system, or system integrity deteriorated over the years in the absence of safeguards for
its integrity.

New technological instruments and new respective legal procedures should be


developed and implemented in order to restore public confidence in large computer
systems that are pervasive in large corporation or in the public service today.

1) Records Analyzed
a. “Minute Orders” – written by a Judge, Processed by a Clerk (Fig 2a,
2b), are an integral part of “Trial Court Litigation Records”, and are
issued through Sustain.
Minute Orders must by law be issued after each proceeding, whether in open court or
in chambers, on the very same day (i.e. post stamped at most one business day later).
Minute Orders are an integral part of the permanent records of the litigation – “Trial
Court Litigation Records”.

Any action by the Court, and any paper added to Court File must be noticed to the
parties. In the case of Minute Orders, the mailing of the Minute Orders to parties
satisfies the requirement of “Service of Notice” – a key concept in Due Process. Absent
mailing of the Minute Orders or comparable notice judges could act secretly in

-3-

65 / 545
chambers, without the knowledge of the parties. Certificate of mailing is also part of
the permanent record.

The court is required to keep such in permanent record for a specific number of years as
“Public Records” that are available for viewing by the public at large. That requirement
is critical for transparency of the justice system - a critical safeguard for its integrity,
and is one of the United States Constitutional rights established in the Amendments to
the Constitution (5th and 14th).

b. Notice must be served on parties when Minute Orders are issued, and
Proof of Service must be added to the permanent record – both
executed by the Clerk, and implemented in Sustain.

Whether Notice is served on parties by a judge, or by one party filing papers in court on
the other parties, the service (typically by mail) must be certified by a person other than
the party, or in the case of the court – other than the judge. Such certification satisfies
the requirement for “Proof of Service”.

Proof of Service, or certifying the mailing in case of service of notice of a Minute Order
or any other order by a Judge, is done by the Clerk. The requirement for Clerk’s
certification of mailing, and similarly the requirement for Clerk’s certification on any
paper by a judge or by a party that is entered into the Court File, is an integral part of
the safeguards of the integrity of the Court Files and the justice system. It also
generated a system of checks and balances between the judicial and the ministerial
(clerical) arms of the courts.

c. Minute Orders are Part of Litigation Records – in paper Court File


and also in Sustain – electronic Court File (Fig 2a, 2b).

Minute Orders become part of Litigation Records in LASC – both the paper Court File
and the electronic Court File – i.e., Sustain. A copy of the Minute Order, signed by the

-4-

66 / 545
Clerk (see below) is entered into the paper court file, and the Minute Order itself is also
stored with other litigation records in Sustain, and copies can be printed by the clerk’s
office upon demand.

2) Analysis Methods
a. This study is biased
The secondary author is personally involved in this case, and therefore it was evident
from the start that it would not be reasonable if he conducted the analysis of the system
alone. However, the unique combination of records and finding of facts was also the
outcome of the coincidental combination of skills and events that came together in this
case, presenting this unusual opportunity to present evidence to the computer science
community and the public at large. Therefore, we felt that it was our responsibility to
try to present the data for peer-reviewed publication, albeit, with minimal claims
relative to the findings.

b. Identification of Data Variations among the Sources


The comparison of the data from the different sources reveals numerous instances
where data varied in a meaningful way between the Minute Orders from the various
sources. Even in the few examples shown below, one can see data variations that
would clearly be sufficient to define the system as inappropriate for the purpose it was
presumably intended – easily accessible by the Court, long term, secure and accurate
record of litigation data.

c. No Legal Analysis for Compliance was Undertaken


No attempt was made to perform legal analysis and formulate opinions regarding
compliance with the law. However, some of the results strongly indicate that there is a
need for legal analysis of compliance in this system.

-5-

67 / 545
3) Results

a. Minute Orders as part of the records in Sustain – No Authenticated


Records Stored (Fig 2b, 3b, 4b, 7b).
In LASC, Minute Orders are issued through Sustain. The text that was entered by the
Judge into the Minute Order is stored in memory as part of the final copy of the Minute
Order. A permanent record of the Minute Orders that were mailed out to parties in the
case is held in Sustain, and can be printed by the Clerk’s office upon demand.

Separately, the text that was entered by the judge is typically also entered as part of the
description of the proceeding (“Events”) of the day - in another Sustain record - “Case
History” (Fig 1 a). At times, the Clerk’s Office in LASC provided copies of “Case
History” report from Sustain is response to requests for the “Register of Actions” – the
permanent record that is the concise formal definitive representation of a court action
(at times also named “Docket”).

All such records are “Trial Court Litigation Records”. The clerks of the court are
charged with their safeguard. They are also “Public Records”, and they must be readily
available for inspection and copying by the public at large.

b. Implementation of Clerk’s Certificate of Mailing in Sustain.


In order to complete the Minute Order mailing procedure in Sustain, a Clerk has to log
in as well, and issue a Certificate of Mailing by Clerk (the Proof of Service). The text of
the standard mailing certificate is added at the end of the text of the Minute Order that
was already entered by the judge. Copies are printed mail-ready for window envelopes
- parties’ names, counsels of record, and mailing addresses are already stored in the
system.

-6-

68 / 545
c. Authentication of the Clerk’s Certificate of Mailing and the Record in
Sustain
On the paper copies that are printed, space is provided for a “wet” signature of the
clerk. Paper copies of Minute Orders from paper Court File, or such that were received
by mail by a party, bear the hand-signature of the Clerk.

However, when copies of Minute Orders are printed out from Sustain by the Clerk’s
Office at a later time, they would still include no hand signature or image of the hand
signature of the Clerk. Therefore, it is concluded that there is no permanent, complete
record of the authenticated Minute Orders in Sustain.

d. Minute Orders – as part of the records in paper Court File (Fig 2a)
After mailing, the Clerk also enters a copy of the Minute Order printed by Sustain –
bearing his/her “wet” signature on the Certificate of Mailing - into the paper Court File.
Therefore, one could conclude that the system was designed with the notion that the
paper Court File would be the definitive record of the litigation. However, the “Register
of Action” that used to be a paper record prior to the introduction of Sustain was
eliminated. One may then conclude that the intention was that the definitive records
would include the paper Court File and the electronic Register of Actions – i.e. Case
History report in Sustain.

All papers entered into in the paper Court File bear a stamp certifying the filing and
entry, and a hand signature by a Clerk:

FILED
LOS ANGELES SUPERIOR COURT
MAR 28, 2007
JOHN CLARKE, CLERK
<Signature>
BY VIVIAN JAIME, DEPUTY

-7-

69 / 545
The date in the stamp above is an impression of a pre-set stamp, and the signature is a
“wet” hand-signature of the clerk named under the signature line..

However, none of the copies of the Minute Orders derived from the paper Court File
shown here (Fig 2a, 3a, 4a, 7a), or any of the others that were inspected bears the
FILED stamp like the rest of the records in the paper Court File. The reason may be
that the Clerk’s Certificate of Mailing by Clerk includes language that may substitute for
the “FILED” stamp and Clerk’s signature. In fact even the title states: “Notice of
Entry of Order.”

CLERK’S CERTIFICATE OF MAILING/


NOTICE OF ENTRY OF ORDER

I, the below named Executive Officer/Clerk of the


above-entitled court, do hereby certify that I am not
a party to the cause herein, and that this date I
served Notice of Entry of the above minute order of
11-1-05 upon each party or counsel named below by
depositing in the United States mail at the courthouse
in Santa Monica, California, one copy of the original
entered herein in a separate sealed envelope
for each, addressed as shown below, with the postage
fully prepaid.

However, whereas the language used above may be sufficient for a truthful certificate of
mailing, it is not adequate or truthful for a Notice of Entry of Order. This certificate
states:

“I served Notice of Entry of the above minute order of 11-1-


05 upon each party or counsel named below…”

-8-

70 / 545
Named below in this case was only one party, out of two. This is not an unusual finding
in this case. While one party never got notice, other parties did receive notice from the
court. There were exceptions – for example the July 12, 2007 Minute Order, where a
judge certified mailing of own order, and mailed it only to one party again, but the one
party that was normally excluded from notice (Fig 6).

California Rules of Court state:

Chapter 3. Service and Filing


Rule 1.21. Service
a) Service on a party or attorney
Whenever a document is required to be served on a party, the service must
be made on the party’s attorney if the party is represented.
(Subd (a) amended effective January 1, 2007.)
(b) “Serve and file”
As used in these rules, unless a statute or rule provides for a different
method for filing or service, a requirement to “serve and file” a document
means that a copy of the document must be served on the attorney for each
party separately represented, on each self-represented party, and on any
other person or entity when required by statute, rule, or court order, and that
the document and a proof of service of the document must be filed with the
court.
(Subd (b) amended effective January 1, 2007.)
(c) “Proof of service”
As used in these rules, “proof of service” means a declaration stating that
service has been made as provided in (a) and (b). If the proof of service
names attorneys for separately represented parties, it must also state which
party or parties each of the attorneys served is representing.
(Subd (c) adopted effective January 1, 2007.)
Rule 1.21 amended effective January 1, 2007; adopted effective January 1,
2007.

The Rule is clear – “each party” - not each party in an exclusive list made up at will.
And it is explicit in the requirement to file the Proof s of Service with the court as well.

Therefore, the Minute Orders produced through Sustain are inadequate. The system
deliberately had the Defendant not entered, and therefore, his name typically never
appeared in the mailing list. Fig 1a – opening pages of Case History in Sustain, was
printed out on Aug 1, 2007, as noted in the footer. At the top of page 1, the header
provides space for Plaintiff(s) and Defendant(s) names, counsels’ names, address and

-9-

71 / 545
phone number. Of four parties listed in this case by Aug 1, 2007, only one is listed. The
three unlisted parties are still unlisted in a printout date April 30, 2008. Therefore,
Sustain, a system that was presumably designed to implement the law and assist in the
administration of justice, has become and instrument for abuse of Due Process rights of
litigants.

Recording in Sustain of documents that are incorporated into the Court File is through
a “Document Filed” notation. For each paper document filed in Court File, there is
matching data entry in Sustain, e.g.:

08/09/07 Document Filed MEMO


Order
Court
GRANTING SUMMARY JUDGMENT IN
FAVOR OF PLAINTIFF NIVIE SAMAAN

However, none of the Minute Orders, generated through Sustain, then entered into the
paper Court File, is recorded in Sustain as a paper document that was incorporated into
the paper court file.

Therefore, if “Case History” report in Sustain is serving as the “Register of Actions”, it is


missing any adequate record of any of the Minute Orders - significant part of Litigation
Records, and the Minute Orders are never stamped as “FILED” into the paper Court
File either.

e. Minute Orders - time stamps


i) Paper Court File (Fig 2a, 3a, 4a, 7a): Two notations of date appear on
each and every page of a Minute Order. The first is at the top left corner, and is marked
as in the following example:
DATE: 10/03/07

The second date notation appears in a box at the lower right corner, for example:
MINUTES ENTERED
09/10/07
-10-

72 / 545
COUNTY CLERK

The latter date notation, associated with the words “entered”, and “county clerk”
resembles to a degree the stamp “FILED”, described above, which also includes the
date. However, the box in the lower right corner of each page of the Minute Order
includes no signature. Therefore, it could neither serve for authentication of the filing
or entering of the record into the Court File, nor for the date of such action.

ii. Electronic Court File (Fig 2b, 3b, 4b, 7b)


The same format of double date notation at upper left and lower right corners of each
page is also found in all copies of the Minute Orders derived from the permanent record
in Sustain.
The text of the Minute Order is most times also recorded under “Event” in the Case
History report in Sustain, but it does not appear there as an explicit order, and there is
no authenticated recording there of the date of mailing or entry into the Court File
either.(Fig 1 a, p 3-4).

f. Electronic Court File - Case History Report in Sustain


The first few page of the report are copied in Fig 1a. This report was provided by the
Clerk’s Office in response to a request for “Register of Action”. The Court at times
also described this report as the “Docket”. But other times, the Court claimed that the
“Case Summary” report (Fig 1c), which is part of the online, freely accessible
Courtnet system is the “Docket”. However, disclaimers (Fig 1d) that are posted by the
Court itself on the web warn against the use of that document, and declare that it is not
an official court document.

We analyzed the printout of a Case History report of about 200 pages, which was
made available from one single case (SC087400), since the LASC severely limits public
access to Sustain data, held by the court as – “privileged – for the Court only”.

-11-

73 / 545
Data in the report were compared with photocopies of the Minute Orders:
i. As entered and retained in the paper Court File of the litigation, and/or
ii. As seen in batch printout at purchased from the Clerk’s office, and
iii. Minute Orders received by a party by mail. Only few Minute Orders were
indeed receive by mail in this case. In many of the Minute Orders there is a
note: “Notice waived”, no Certificate of Mailing by the Clerk appears in
such Minute Orders, and no copies were received by mail by a party.
Anecdotal information from other cases indicates that such situation is not
uncommon at the LASC.

g. Variations in Date notations between Minute Orders from paper


Court File and as printed from Sustain.

i. The Date Minute Orders were Entered is almost without exception


later in copies originating from Sustain compared to date noted in
copies incorporated into the paper Court File (Fig 2a vs 2b, 7a vs
7b, 8a vs 8b).
Examination of the dates notations in copies of Minute Orders originating from the
paper Court File, reveals that in all cases with no exceptions, the date listed as date
minutes entered in the box at the lower right corner of the Minute Order is identical
with the date of the proceedings listed at top left. And the same date appears again, a
third time in the Clerk’s Certification of Mailing by the Clerk, as the date of mailing, and
a fourth time, as part of the authentication of the Clerk’s Certification of Mailing. Such
records may generate the impression of perfect compliance with the law – all Minute
Orders are produced on same date as the hearing, mailed out on the same date, and
filed in the paper Court File on the same date.

-12-

74 / 545
However, the picture is entirely different upon examination of Minute Orders derived
from batch printouts from Sustain. In such Minute Orders, there is hardly ever
unanimity between the date listed at top left and the date listed at bottom right- the
date listed as date minutes were entered is always a later date, and it can be as much as
almost 3 months later than the date listed as date minutes entered in the copy of the
Minute Order that is incorporated into the paper Court File.

The most plausible explanation for this variance is that the date in the batch printouts
is the date of the Audit File – or true date of entry, whereas the date on the printout of
the Minute Order that is incorporated into the court file is simply user-defined. This
explanation also explains the great reluctance of the Court to mail out any Minute
Orders, since the postal stamp will provide evidence for the variance.

Indeed, in one of the cases when the Minute Order was mailed out (Fig 8, a, b, c), the
records show the following:

• Minute Order from paper Court File (Fig 8a)


Copy of the Minute Order derived from the paper Court File lists Date of Proceeding:
08/21/07, minutes entered 08/21/07, date of service by mail: 08/21/07, and date of
Clerk’s Certificate of mailing: 08/21/07, with “wet” hand signature of the Clerk.

• Minute Order mailed to Party (Fig 8b)


Copy of the Minute Order received by mail by party lists exactly the same data for dates:
date of proceeding: 08/21/07, minutes entered 08/21/07, date of service by mail:
08/21/07, and date of clerk’s certificate of mailing: 08/21/07, with “wet” hand
signature of the Clerk.

-13-

75 / 545
• Postal Stamp on Envelope in which Minute Order was mailed (Fig 8c)
The postal stamp on the Minute Order shows a date of 08/28/07.

• Minute Order printed later from Sustain (Fig 8d)


Date of proceeding: 08/21/07, date of service by mail: 08/21/07, and date of clerk’s
certificate of mailing: 08/21/07. This copy bears no “wet” hand signature of the Clerk,
and on page 3, the date in the box for Minutes Entered is 8/28/07.

Therefore, one may reasonably conclude that already at the time of data entry, the user
is establishing double records with two very different values under the field of Minutes
Entered.

Needless to say, dates of filing and entry of documents are critical in any litigation, and
therefore deliberately generating incorrect records should not be allowed, and should
not be acceptable in programming for the Court. Lack of Notice, or delayed notice is
always detrimental to party in litigation. However, in some of the instances listed in
the figures, the harm is greater, since the number of days allowed to elapse between the
date the notice is given and the date of appeal is only 10 days, therefore, failure to issue
the Minute Order on time could cause irreparable harm to a party.

ii. “Minutes Entered” date in Sustain, but not in paper Court File may
assume invalid values of 00/00/00 or 33/33/33, therefore
invalidating the record. (Fig 3a vs 3b, Fig 4a vs 4b)
We believe that any Minute Order that shows a date of entry such as 00/00/00 or
33/33/33 is an invalid court record, for the simple reason that it has an invalid date of
entry. In addition, one may notice that on page 1 of Case History (Fig 1a) at the upper
right corner, it states clearly regarding the case as a whole –

# Children :
Filed : 10/25/05

-14-

76 / 545
Age : 645
Disposed : 00/00/00

It is not clear if it must be entered at the time of issuing the Minute Order, or at a later
time. But the data shows that the time between entry and invalidations was as short as
less than a week in one case.

Obviously, parties in a litigation must be informed if the records were changed in such
drastic way. There is no evidence of notice of the invalidations, neither is there any
evidence of an attempt to notice the invalidation.

iii. Back-dating of visible records, and invisible to the public recording


of the true dates, are common throughout the System (Fig 1a vs
1b)
Fig 1a shows the opening pages of Case History in Sustain. That page include some
unusual notes entered as “Document Filed” listings. For example, in litigation in
Trial Court, the term or party designation “Real Party in Interest” is hardly ever
used. But the note on page 1 (Box added) states:

07/24/04 Document Filed


Opposition
Real Parties in Interest
( BY COUNTRYWIDE HOME LOANS)

As noted above, the same page, at the upper right corner provides the date complaint
was filed in this case – 10/25/05. Therefore, this note is listed at a date that is prior to
the creation of this file in Sustain. As such, this listing shows a failure in the logic of
the programming.

Moreover, for each and every entry in this program there is a matching “Audit File”
including the login time stamp and User ID respective to that data entry. Such data is

-15-

77 / 545
never shared with the public. Fig 1b is the Audit File data associated with this peculiar
listing:
On page 1 – at the bottom of the page the listing appears of the note copied above.
On page 2 – at the top of the page – the end line of that note.
On page 3 – in the middle of the page – Audit File data:

AUDIT
Date Time Function User ID User Name
7/24/07 8:36am Add 6815 Jaime, Vivian

Obviously, the date when the note was entered was 7/24/07, and the date of 7/24/04
was a user defined date. It is likely that the same is true for the dates as seen on the
Minute Orders, that the date shown in printouts that were incorporated into the paper
file was the user defined date, and the date that was recorded always on the last page of
the Minute Order, in the Minutes Entered box, is the Audit File data for that entry.

iv. Back-dating allowed entering of Minute Order at a Time that the


User should have been without Authority to Enter Data in that File
(Fig 7 a, b).

Fig 7a, b show Minute Order of Sept 10, 2007. That Minute Order in Court File notes
Minutes Entered 09/10/07. The Minute Order from Sustain notes: Minutes Entered
09/11/07. However, the judge in this case was disqualified on Sept 10, 2007.
Therefore, the judge had no authority to enter that data file on Sept 11, 2007.
Unfortunately, that failure of the CMS to establish authorities properly allowed entering
of a false and deliberately misleading data in this case. The hearing that is recorded
never took place, as demonstrated by transcript of the same date.
It is not clear to what degree the system defines authorities clearly enough, since there
are several other instances of posting that would have been blocked had authorities
been defined adequately.

-16-

78 / 545
v. Variations in the Wording among Records of Same Order (Fig 5 a,
b, c)
The July 6, 2007 Minute Order includes some variations in wording that may initially
look like an innocent error to the naïve reader. In Sustain’s “Case History” report,
which is hardly ever seen by litigants or counsels, the following note was added at the
end of that Minute Order (2nd page in the figure, page 58 of Case History):
“Proceedings not recorded”
We take this note at face value – that the proceeding was “off the record”. There are
additional findings relative to this proceeding that support that reading of the text. That
proceeding was conducted in a manner that was extremely unlikely for any “on the
record” proceeding. The writings left from this proceeding, as well as the proceeding of
July 23, 2007, which was its sequel, appear to have been intentionally ambiguated.

There is no evidence that any party was notified in advance of the intention to conduct
proceedings off the record on that date. There is no evidence that parties were notified
after the fact that proceedings were off the record either. Moreover, there is no
evidence that any attempt was made to notify parties of the unusual nature of the
proceedings either. Needless to say, most reasonable parties would avoid participation
in any proceedings that are “off the record”.

vi. Variations in the Wording of the Standard Certification of Mailing


(Fig 9a,b)
The Minute Order of July 12, 2007 is unusual, since it presents an improvised
Certificate of Mailing by a Judge, albeit, unauthenticated. In contrast with other errors,
which could be ascribed to lower level staff errors, it is unlikely that this record was
generated by staff, albeit – it needs to be examined in more detail. In addition – this
record is not the kind that could be generated through omission or simple neglect. First
the normal Clerk’s Certificate of Mailing had to be eliminated, and then, a new
certificate had to be composed. Furthermore, there had to be a reason to go through
such effort.
-17-

79 / 545
Fig 9b presents the Minute Order as seen in the permanent record in Sustain, where it
is dated July 23, 2007, or 11 days after the date of the proceeding, which in this case
was disqualification of a judge – therefore – the time of mailing was critical. A judge
who does not serve a response within 10 days is disqualified.

The unusual nature of the proceeding may also be related to the fact that the Clerk did
not sign this particular record, since the law ascribes to the Clerk a particular function
in cases like this (California Code of Civil Procedure §170.3). It is possible that the clerk
refused to sign this particular certificate.
The paper file fails to present any copy of this particular minute Order, and Party’s
records show no Minute Order like this particular one was received by mail either.

vii. Records missing Clerk’s Certificate of Mailing by present in paper


Court File

Many of the Minute Orders present in the paper court file in this case are missing the
Clerk’s Certificate of Mailing. Indeed they are missing altogether from the party’s
record. Therefore, a reasonable conclusion is that indeed they were never mailed out in
the first place.

When asking attorneys practicing in Los Angeles, it turns out that this is indeed the
local custom. The Los Angeles Superior Court does not mail out the Minute Orders to
the counsels. Instead, the requirement is waived on a regular basis. Why would any
counsel in his right mind waive such right? And why would a court of law establish it as
a local custom not to mail out its minute orders?

viii. Records missing altogether from the paper Court File

80 / 545
h. Correlations between the Nature of the Proceedings and Variations
in Data Among Sources
The data shown above are not sufficient to demonstrate conclusively the assertion that the
more unusual the nature of the proceeding, the more likely it was that the records would
show variations in dates or in wording among sources. Most of the examples listed in the
figures, are associated with procedures that are not the most common in litigation. For
example – the July 6, 2007 record, where there is a variation in wording between the Minute
Order and Case History, and the note: “Proceedings not Recorded” added in Case History.
That proceeding was an ex parte procedure, scheduled at an irregular time, for the purpose
of setting a gag order on an individual at the request of a large corporation.
Ascribing motivations would require a much more thorough study of the system.

We may add, that the findings presented here are just a very small selection that is focusing
almost entirely on the issue of determination of dates, since it was believed to be the easiest
finding to present, and for readers to understand. Most people have a sense that back-dating
documents is inherently wrong, and back-dating court documents is not something that
sounds like a sound practice in a court of Justice.

But the findings of the analysis of the data as a whole strongly suggests that many more
proceedings in this case were of the type that the judiciary considered “off the record”, but
never notified the parties of that fact. Again, this type of data is more complex in nature,
and it was excluded from this report.

3. Conclusion and Recommendations

a. Any change in CMS should be deemed change in Rules of Court,


and accordingly approached.

-19-

81 / 545
The Rule Enabling Act (part of U.S. Code) demands publication of any new rules and
reasonable opportunity for public challenge. The introduction of Sustain was
unquestionably a major departure from prior Rules of Court, but there is no indication
that the Rules of Court were accordingly updated. Sustain is for example never
mentioned in the Rules of Court of LA County. Not even once.

No new case management system should be allowed before giving public notice and an
opportunity for comment.

However, when it comes to computer systems, public comment is incapacitated absent


detailed information regarding system specifications. Therefore, rules must be
developed regarding the method of presentation of such systems for public comment
(similar to rules that evolved in the past regarding presentation of building plans for
public comment). In such posting for public comment, the logic of the programming
code may need to be reduced to a set of assertions in natural language. Moreover, in
consultation with experts from the field of mathematics and logic, standardized
presentations may be developed, and methods of certification, to ensure that such
presentations in natural language are true and correct reflection of the code. Such
certification is comparable to a certification on a building plan by an engineer or an
architect, stating that the drawing indeed represents a true and correct representation
of the detailed plans that may be not be fully included in the item presented for public
view. In addition, it may be necessary to certify that the logic of the system is consistent
with the legal code that is implemented in it. Mathematical and logical methods such as
“formal verification” and “simulation verification” are in existence that may be utilized
for this purpose. But none of it has been done in the past, when large computer
systems were introduced in public agencies, and at present, when such systems are
being replaced with second or third generation, there is no indication that there is any
intention to do so either.

-20-

82 / 545
b. State of the Art Security and Signage Measures Must be
Implemented.

Based on the little that Plaintiff has learnt about Sustain, it is reasonable to assume that
it was modified over the years, and that such modifications were not uniform in all
locations of the Court. Any ad hoc changes in a CMS are a major risk to its integrity,
and rules must be developed to safeguard the systems against such changes in the code.

The system as it is operated now implements User ID’s and passwords. But such are
hidden from public view in the Audit Files. That is out of compliance with the of the law
relative to implementation of electronic and digital signatures. Such laws as the U.S. E-
sign Act of 2002 and the California regulations regarding electronic signatures
mandate that wherever such signatures were traditionally open to public view – and
they definitely were open to public view in traditional Books of Court - they must be
made accessible for public inspection also in their digital permutation.

c. New methods and procedures should be developed for


public review and comment on logic machines.

The problem inherent in CMS’s is to a degree similar to that of Electronic Voting


Machines – extremely high value is placed from public-policy perspective on
verification of such processes, which are some of the foundations of democratic society,
and long-term safeguard of their integrity. The two systems differ however, in that
CMS’s reflect a more complex logic, and require networked implementation and
ongoing data input by various users with different authorities, more comparable to a
production monitoring system.

Beyond that – the major difference is that introduction of Electronic Voting Machines
was to a large degree interrupted, due to public awareness and public protest of the lack
of verification. CMS’s were introduced at a time when such awareness was hardly

-21-

83 / 545
existent. Therefore, they provide in a way a reflection of a branch of government (the
Judiciary in this case) operating based on its own rules, with minimum oversight, if
any.

d. Lessons must be distilled from the traditional paper-based


systems

It appears that with the computerized revolution, the traditional systems were
discarded without giving them a second thought. Primary consideration should be
given to strengthening the ministerial arm of the court, as a counter balance to the
judicial, with highly educated and skilled clerks in key positions. The authorities of the
judicial and the ministerial arms should be carefully prescribed and segregated, to
generate appropriate checks and balances.

e. CMS’s Must be Utilized to Safeguard Due Process and to Monitor


the Quality and Integrity of the Courts

The significance of correct docketing must be emphasized, and the systems must not
allow easy ways to bypass the menu-driven, rule-based docketing. Without accurate
docketing, the system is useless. With accurate docketing the system can become a
valuable instrument in safeguarding Due Process. The contribution of the ministerial
staff in this process needs to be emphasized, and their personal accountability for each
act of docketing, which must bear a personal digital signature that is easily visible, and
easily associated with an individual.

f. The best safeguard for integrity in operations of CMS’s is in


transparency through public access to electronic Court File
records.

The single factor that may contribute more than anything else to safeguard of the
integrity of the operation of CMS’s is public scrutiny through public access. Therefore,

-22-

84 / 545
the fact that Sustain gained a “privileged” status in Los Angeles Count, is alarming in
and of itself, probably at the source of the problem. CMS must be treated like Court
Files that they are – the public has the right to view these public records.

LIST OF FIGURES:

1. OPENING PAGES OF CASE HISTORY REPORT/SUSTAIN


This is the formal record of litigations, but it is hardly ever seen by
attorneys practicing in LA County, since the Court holds that “Sustain
data are privileged – for the Court only”. Instead, most rely on
records such as “Case Summary” described in 1c.
Note that the all three entries on page 1, are back-dated prior to the time of
initiation of litigation. The bottom note on Page 1 of Case History is back-
dated July 24, 2004 – prior to filing of claims and prior to relevant
events ever taking place. In fact it was entered on 7/24/04, as seen in 1b.

a. Copy from printout of the visible data in the electronic Court File (Sustain)
Case History report.
Filing Date – 07/24/07

b. The electronic Court File (Sustain) Audit File of same note. The audit data
is normally invisible, and is never provided to the public -
Filing Date – 07/24/07
Note on page 3-4 the typical sequence of opening and closing an “Event”
typically starting with “Document Filed”, proceeding through an
“Event” where the Minute Order is recorded, and ending with “Event
Complete”.

c. Copy of opening sequence of the “Case Summary” report in Courtnet,


which is easily accessible to the public on the web, but is disclaimed on the
same web pages, as not a formal document of the Court.

Table I. Minute Orders, Other Orders & Notices in Paper and Electronic Court Files.
Start (*) in column 7 indicates a minute order or other record that is particularly dishonest of fraudulent.

The main claim in this table is about a fact that is simple to prove – that the court routinely engages in back-dating its own records, by days,
weeks, months, and sometimes years.

Another claim is that the judges, without exception engaged in the habit of secretly voiding/invalidating/disposing orders from
chambers, which in paper court file appeared as valid orders, such records appear with a “Date Minutes Entered” of 00/00/00 or 33/33/33.

Otherwise, Judge Connor routinely produced false and deliberately misleading records by invalid piggy-back registration of proceedings,
where only one is truly registered court action, the other ones- off the record.

Questioned Siguature of Victor Parks - Case 2
Date: August 19, 2008
I have examined three (3) submitted signatures. One signature, the questioned signature of
Victor Parks, found on the PRE-QUALIFICATION LETTER dated September 7, 2004
identified herein as "Ql." Two (2) ,signatures were presented as "known signatures" of Victor
Parks. The first "known signature" found on the SUPPLEMENTAL DECLARATION OF
VICTOR PARKS executed on November 6, 2006 is identified herein as "Kl." The second
"known signature" found on the DECLARATION OF VICTOR PARKS executed on October 27,
2006 is identified herein as "K2." These "known signatures" were used to determine the
authenticity with the "Ql" signature. For the purpose of this examination, a comparison was
made between "Ql" and the aforementioned "known signatures."
Today I have compared the "known signatures" of Victor Parks to the questioned signature of
Victor Parks "Q 1," to determine the authenticity of the questioned signature.
The signatures provided for this examination were viewed side-by-side and enlarged at multiple
scales by the use of a computer to aid the examination and comparison process. Common
features of the "known signatures" were compared to the questioned signature. Additionally,
unusual features of "Q 1" were compared to the "known signatures."
Based upon thorough analysis of these items, and from an application of accepted forensic
document examination tools, principles and techniques, it is my professional expert opinion that
a different person authored the name of Victor Parks on "Ql." The author of the known Victor
Parks signatures is not the author of the Victor Parks signature on the questioned document,
"Q I."
I am willing to testify to this fact in a court of law.
Respectfully submitted,

Robert A. Meister .'

Questioned Signature of Victor Parks - Case 3
Date: August 19, 2008
I have examined four (4) submitted signatures. Two signatures, questioned signatures of Victor
Parks, found on the UNIFORM RESIDENTIAL LOAN APPLICATION (for the amount of
1,374,400) dated September 7, 2004 identified herein as "Ql" and on the UNIFORM
RESIDENTIAL LOAN APPLICATION (for the amount of 171,800) dated September 7, 2004
identified herein as "Q2." Two (2) signatures were presented as "known signatures" of Victor
Parks. The first "known signature" found on the SUPPLEMENTAL DECLARATION OF
VICTOR PARKS executed on November 6, 2006 is identified herein as "Kl." The second
"known signature" found on the DECLARATION OF VICTOR PARKS executed on October 27,
2006 is identified herein as "K2." These "known signatures" were used to determine the
authenticity with the "Ql" and "Q2" signatures. For the purpose of this examination, a
comparison was made between "Ql" and "Q2" and the aforementioned "known signatures."
Today I have compared the "known signatures" of Victor Parks to the questioned signatures of
Victor Parks "Q 1" and "Q2," to determine the authenticity of the questioned signatures
The signatures provided for this examination were viewed side-by-side and enlarged at multiple
scales by the use of a computer to aid the examination and comparison process. Common
features of the "known signatures" were compared to the questioned signatures. Additionally,
unusual features of "Q 1" and "Q2" were compared to the "known signatures."
Based upon thorough analysis of these items, and from an application of accepted forensic
document examination tools, principles and techniques, it is my professional expert opinion that
a different person authored the name of Victor Parks on "Ql" and "Q2." The author of the
known Victor Parks signatures is not the author of the Victor Parks signatures on the questioned
documents, "Q 1" and "Q2."
I am willing to testify to this fact in a court of law.

6 substantiating extensive fraud in the litigation of Sarnaan v Zemik (SC087400) at the Los
7 Angeles Superior Court.
8

2 2. Extensive fraud by Countrywide Legal Department - Todd Boock & Sanford Shatz,
3 Countrywide Custodian of Records - Mariela Garcia, Countrywide Branch Manager _
4 Maria McLaurin, Countrywide Chief Legal Counsel - Sandor Samuels, Countrywide
5 President and CEO - Angelo Mozilo, Nivie Samaan, Mohammad Keshavarzi
6 (Sheppard Mullin), and others against Zernik, against the Court, and the People of
7 California and the United States in Samaan v Zernik.
8
9 II. BRIEF HISTORY OF SAMAAN'S LOAN APPLICATIONS AND THEIR
10 UNDERWRITING BY COUNTRYWIDE, AND FALSE CLAIMS MADE IN
THIS REGARD BY SAMAAN & COUNTRYWIDE.
11
12 The main elements of such frauds were as follows:

13 I. Nivie Samaan, with full support through fraudulent verified statements by Maria

14 McLaurin (Countrywide Wholesale Branch Manager, San Rafael, California), Victor


Parks (Loan Broker, PMC), and Att. Mohammad Keshavarzi (Sheppard Mullin et at)
15
made fraudulent claims based on false representation of the underwriting history of
16
17 such loan applications at Countrywide San Rafael.

18 2. The Legal Department of Countrywide, (Att Sanford Shatz and Att. Todd Boock -

19 who claimed religious observance of the Jewish holiday of Passover to avoid being

20 called for a motion to compel regarding their fraudulent subpoena productions) re-

21 engineered the underwriting history of Samaan's loan applications at Countrywide in

22 their fraudulent subpoena productions from August 2006 through April 2007,
included in the subpoena's numerous fraudulent documents, refused to provide email
23
24 correspondence related to the applications and various reports related to the

25 applications, claiming that such did not exist.

26 3. Two Countrywide top officers were fully aware of the fraud since early 2007:

27 a. Sandor Samuels, Board Chair of "House of Justice" - Bet Tzedek - a prominent

28 Jewish Charity, and member of the board of numerous other Jewish organizations in

Los Angeles, old friend of Judge Allan Goodman, and old acquaintance of Judge
2 Terry Friedman, and Chief Legal Counsel of Countrywide,
3 and
4 b. Angelo Mozilo, President and CEO of Countrywide
5 Both failed to stop the ongoing fraud in the courtroom, and refused to authenticate or
6 repudiate key fraudulent Countrywide documents in Samaan v Zernik for about a
7 year.
8

9 Fraudulent claims relative to Samaan's loan applications include, but were not limited
10 to the following:
11 1. That the fraudulent Sept 27,2004 Samaan's Unifonn Residential Loan Applications
12 (l003) (Exh A, B) were the outcome of a phone interview by licensed loan broker
13 Victor Parks, and Victor Parks signed the statement to that effect on the Unifonn
14 Residential Loan Applications (1003) on Sept 27, 2004 (both 1sl and 2nd Lien Loan
15 Application, Exh A and B, respectively).
16 • In fact, Samaan stated in her deposition in 2006 (Exh L) that Parks had never been
17 involved in the preparation of her loan applications, and that she had never even
18 talked with him abont the loan applications at that time, that the loan applications
19 had been prepared by her and her husband, JR Lloyd (Parks first cousin and
20 business associate).
21 • In fact, Parks signature on the loan applications bears no resemblance to Parks
22 signatures in court declarations (Exh R).
23 2. That the fraudulent Sept 27,2004 Samaan's Uniform Residential Loan Applications
24 (l003) (Exh A, B) were valid performance of the contractual duty of Samaan to "act
25 honestly and diligently to obtain designated loan".
26 • In fact, the loan applications were replete with false and deliberately misleading
27 data regarding Samaan's employment, income, residence, and place of employment.
28 • In fact Samaan refused to list proper loan fees in the 1st lien oan application (0.75%

1 amounting to more than $10,000), and would therefore never sign loan disclosures
2 either.
3 • In fact, after suspension on October 14, 2007 Samaan failed to notice Zeruik of the
4 suspension.
5 • In fact, after the suspension on October 14, 2007 Samaan failed to address the

2 exactly what documents were received and in which order.

3 11. In Meet and Confer telephone conference in early 2007 with Att Shatz and Att Boock
4 of the Legal Department of Countrywide, they claimed that there simply was no
5 explanation for the double "Date Received" stamps on Samaan's loan applications. They
6 also denied that there was any report in Countrywide that could shed light on this
7 mystery. For example, I asked for any Internal Audit report on these documents,
8 establishing the identity of the person who created these stamps, the time it was done, the
9 authority by which it was done, and the reason for it. I also asked for any Imaging Report
10 that would show if these loan applications were scanned twice, once in early October and
11 once on Oct 12,2004. I also asked if there was any evidence in Edge, the underwriting
12 monitoring system, for another receipt and underwriting prior to Oct 12,2004. I also
13 asked for a Pipeline Report - to see if any applications by Samaan were noted prior to
14 Oct 12, 2004. On all of these questions Att Shatz and Boock answered that I am asking
15 for non-existent reports.
16 12. Prior to the Meet and Confer phone call, I wrote a detailed letter, signed and sent
17 under the name of my then Counsel Zachary Schorr. In it, I specifically again asked for
18 the various types of reports that Countrywide surely had to have regarding Smaan'sloan
19 applications, especially that the Legal Department had now twice reviewed in detail the
20 documents. They denied any existed. In the Meet and Confer Letter I also listed one by
21 one all the Underwriting Letters provided in the Subpoena production. It was clear to
22 me:
23 a. That they omitted at least one Underwriting Letter from the period prior to Oct
24 12,2004, and
25 b. That the unsigned, invalid Oct 26, 2004 Underwriting Letter, which was
26 entered by Att Keshavarzi in Sur Reply to Defendant's Motion to Expunge Lis

my claims that Samaan and McLaurin were in cahoots in this fraud as


2 "conspiracy theory". After I received this correspondence, he back off that
3 dismissive argument.
4 o that on Nov 3, 2006, Lloyd is suggesting that maybe this letter could be used to
5 substantiate a claim that missing initials of Zernik caused delay in the final
6 approval ofSamaan's loans in 2004. But by Nov 6, 2006, 3 days later, a set of
7 coordinated fraudulent declarations were produced in court, claiming that the

8 missing initials caused the immediate suspension of Samaan loan applications

9 on Oct 14,2004, two days after their purported first receipt in San Rafael.

10 o That in Nov 2006 Maria McLaurin was still hesitant to become a full pledged
participant in the fraud against Zemik. She refused to sign the verified
11
statement offered by Keshavarzi, and instead supplied a letterwhich should not
12
have been admissible in court. Later, she changed her position, and submitted

blatantly fraudulent verified statements.

FCC regulations. The fact that such an anonymous document was received in
2 Countrywide as part of a loan file applications is in violation of both "sound
3 banking principles" as required by Regulations B of the FRB, and also in
4 violation of Countrywide's own Policy and Procedure manual regarding the
5 use of fax machines. The fax header on this document perfectly matches the
6 fax header on documents such as the Oct 25,2004 fax transmission of the Sept
7 15, 2004 Purchase Contract, which is part of the convoluted fax/wire scheme

8 of Samaan, Parks, Lloyd, and Countrywide (see Notice ofDocument: Sept 15,

9 2004 Purchase Contract) against a financial institution, and across state lines.

10 b. This document provides Samaan's certification of the documents, but fails to


provide Parks' Broker's Certification. Such Broker's Certification was in fact
11
never provided, therefore entirely invalidating the two loan applications.

c. This document is missing Parks' signature on the Broker's Certification, p 12,


13
but bears a purported Parks' signature on Origination Agreement, p 13, albeit,
14
the signature on p13 bears no resemblance to Parks' signature on either the
15
Loan applications (Exh A, p 38; B, P 42), or the Court Declarations (Exh S, p
16
149).
17
d. If one is to accept this document as a fax transmission from Parks to
18
Countrywide on Oct 4,2004, then it contradicts the claim that Samaan's loan
19
applications were first received in Countrywide only on Oct 12,2004. In fact,

2 the duly assigned Senior Underwriter Frazier - that such be done only after Samaan filed
3 valid Loan Applications (l003) listing the 0.75% loan fees. In addition, McLaurin failed
4 to submit to Gadi a Clues report, instead making up fraudulent fictitious complimentary
5 credit determinations for Samaan, and in the process also hiking her income to $4m per
6 year. Gadi unfazed, added specific restrictive conditions to Samaan's loan applications in

7 his Oct 29, 2004 Exception Report (Exh N, p 104), which did not reflect confidence in

8 the integrity of McLaurin or data she provided regarding Samaan's loan applications:

9. - He re-affirmed the requirement for valid Loan Applications (l003) listing the loan
fees of 0.75%
10

Good Morning Michael. Regarding the loan contingency, you'll need to speak to Ms. Samaan about it. I've
informed her that although the loan is approved, it's not over until the appraisal review is back. As you know, if
for some reason the appraisal is cut, we don't have a deal. That being said, countrywide is very good with
appraisals and it's been a long-time since I've had an appraisal cut, I've reviewed the cornps and the value is we'll
supported, but there's always the possibility.

I should have the review by Friday which still gives everyone ten days until the dose of escrow. Please feel free
to call me should you have any further questions.

Respectfully,

CONTINGENCIES REMOVED SUBJECT "1:0 CERTAIN CONDITIONS. , .LET'S FACE IT... THE LENDER
COULD GO BANKRUPT PRIOR TO ESCROW CLOSE, .THERE HAS TO BE SOME RISK ASSUMED BY THE
BUYER IN THIS CASE, , .SHE HAS AN EXTREMELY LOW DEPOSIT IN ESCROW (LESS THAN 2PERCENT)
AND I WOULD FIND ',T HARD TO BELIEVE THAT WITH YOUR TRACK RECORD AND ASSURANCES THAT
SHE WOULD NOT BE COMFORTABLE, , .BY THE WAY, . ,YOU NEVER RESPONDED TO MY QUERY
ABOUT YOUR FAX NUMBER FORWARDING TO NIVIE'S,

Questioned Document Examiner Letter
Questioned Date on Underwriting Letter
Date: August 12, 2008
I have examined four (4) submitted documents. One set of documents titled, "America's
Wholesale Lender" contains two pages labeled JZ1-A and JZ1-B. Another set of documents was
also submitted titled, "America's Wpolesale Lender", containing two pages labeled JZ2-A and
JZ2-B. These two sets of documents were used to determine the date that the document was
printed and then faxed.
Today I have compared the information on the documents referenced above to determine the date
of origination and the date of faxing.
The origination date and time stamps on the JZ1-A and JZ2-A documents shows that the date is
"10/26/2004 10:44:51" for page 1. Using JZ-1B and JZ2-B documents the date for page 2 is
"10/26/2004 10:44:52".

The time imprint at the top of JZ2-A is "(TUE) OCT 26 2004 10:54" for page 1 and using JZ2-B
the time imprint at the top is "(TUE) OCT 26 2004 10:54" for page 2. It is customary for fax
machines to print the date and time received at this location, using the date and time set on the
fax machine of the receiver.
Based upon thorough analysis of these items, and from an application of accepted forensic
document examination tools, principles and techniques, it is my professional expert opinion that
October 26, 2004 was the date that the underwriting document was originated and faxed.
I am willing to testify to this opinion in a court of law.
Respectfully submitted,

RE: BEYOND FINANCIAL – COUNTRYWIDE AND CORRUPTION OF THE COURTS IN LA.

Sir/Madam:

I called last night and reported to a female agent, on duty answering the phones, my allegations of corruption of the Courts
in LA, as evidenced in Samaan V Zernik, SC087400, LA Superior Court, West District.

Please accept this as notice for request to have the government join this litigation under Qui Tam laws. My estimate is
that Maria McLaurin, using a specific procedure involving Countrywide Edge Computerized Underwriting Monitoring
System, was defrauding the US Government to the tune of $0.5 billion a year in non credit worthy mortgage loans, in
violation of Regulation B of the Federal Reserve. This is just a small fraction of the fraud in the San Rafael branch under
her management. I included this claim in my opposition to Countrywide’s motion for Protective Order under the Corrupt
Judge Connor. In their reply, Countrywide did not refute this claim, only stated that my estimate may not be accurate.
I also request that Special Agent Vallese, who was assigned to this case since January 2007, but showed no interest, be
replaced.

Countrywide employees involved:


Angelo Mozilo – Chairman
Sandor Samuels – Chief Legal Counsel
Todd Boock – Attorney, Legal Department
Sandy Shatz - Attorney, Legal Department
Maria McLaurin – Branch Manager, San Rafael

Outside Countrywide:
Jae Arre Lloyd, formerly Timothy Lloyd Morrow -
Samaan’s Husband, Parks first cousin and business associate, McLaurin’s friend, the brains behind the fraud
Vitor Parks – Samaan’s Loan Broker

Judges involved:
Richard Neidorf - was not involved, but was recused to allow assignment of Connor
Jacqueline Connor – the brains behind corruption of the court
Allan Goodman – close personal friend of Sandor Samuels, continued the corrupt conduct
Biderman – marginally involved
John Segal – in cooperatain with Connor, continued the corrupt conduct
Rosenberg – Supervising Judge – West District – oversaw my physical harassment by two armed sheriffs, when I filed
complaint that he wanted withdrawn.
Stephen Czueleger – Presiding Judge

Attorneys involved:
At Bryan Cave, LLP: John Amberg, Jenna Moldawsky – attorneys for Countrywide
Ar Sheppard Mullin: Mohammad Keshavarzi, Paul Malingagio – attorneys for Samaan
At Sullivan Workman and Dee: Charles Cummings, attorney for Zernik
At Brown and White: Thomas Brown – attorney for Zernik
Zachary Schorr: attorney for Zernik

a) The December 7, 2007 Grant Deed


This record was copied from L Superior Court paper court file,
where Mr Pasternak entered a copy of an order purportedly
approved by Judge Patricia Collins on December 7, 2007. No
notice was served by Pasternak of this order, and no notice was
given of its entry.

b) The December 7, 2007 Grant Deed


This record was found upon search in the Office of Registrar
Recorder of La County, and a certified copy was obtained from
that office. No notice was served by Pasternak of this record,
and no notice was given of its entry in the office of the
Registrar/Recorder.

2. WHAT IS SAMAAN V ZERNIK?

It is entirely unclear what Samaan v Zernik was, and is. In part, it


defies definition, since the offices of the Presiding Judge of the
Court, Stephen Czuleger, as well as the in-house Counsel of the
Court, Mr D. Bret Bianco, and also the external counsel retained
by the Court for this matter, all refuse to answer even the most
basic questions regarding this matter:
a) Is Samaan v Zernik a true case duly registered and indexed, as required by
law for a case heard by the Superior Court of California?
b) Is Samaan v Zernik a case listed in the Calendar of the Courts, as required by
law for a case heard by the Superior Court of California?
c) Is there a judge duly assigned to this case, as required by law for a case heard
by the Superior Court of California?
d) Is there a valid, entered judgment in this case, alternatively – is there no valid,
entered judgment in this case?
In recent letter to Mr Kenneth Melson, Director, U.S. Department of
Justice, it was referred to as an “Enterprise Track” case. In his
response Mr Melson doubted that I had sufficient evidence to
prove the existence of such track in the court.
Here, Samaan v Zernik is referred to as “sham litigation”. Some
of the characteristics are: None of the judges had an assignment
order, as required by law. Therefore, none had any authority in
this case either. I appeared before the Supervising Judge of the
Court several times during litigation, with request that he issue
due assignment orders, but he refused to do so.

FBI INVESTIGATIONS; WHITE COLLAR CRIME; FRAUD

Early FBI Career


Receiving an undergraduate degree at Fordham University—majoring in Accounting—in 1973, Mr. Wedick was appointed
an FBI Special Agent where as an undercover agent he pursued international white-collar-crime and organized-crime
figures. Code named OPFOPEN the investigation launched the FBI’s effort to proactively pursue notorious con-men and
globe-trotting financiers whose criminal strategies included crossing international borders to evade prosecution. Early
notable assignments included undercover roles in the ABSCAM probe where members of Congress were found guilty taking
bribes; indicting the sons of New York mobster JOE BONANNO with wire fraud; and convicting a pension fund executive
with taking $1 million bribe for orchestrating a $50 million loan.

Undercover Probe Concerning California Lawmakers


In 1985, Mr. Wedick initiated the FBI’s historic 3 year undercover probe concerning California lawmakers soliciting/taking
bribes that included introducing bogus legislation and executing search warrants inside capitol lawmakers' offices. Called
CAPSCAM the investigation convicted 5 California legislators and a member of the Coastal Commission seeking to extort
various Hollywood celebrities. Aside from being featured in ABC's Prime Time Live—and guilty verdicts being declared in 6
RICO trials—editorials across the state praised the FBI for its efforts in pursuing corrupt public officials. Because of the
undercover operation’s success, in 1994, Mr.Wedick received the FBI Director’s Award with his performance cited in the U.S.
Congressional record. Using bogus legislation to catch corrupt officials, in December 1994, Mr. Wedick’s unique approach
was featured in the Los Angeles Times Sunday Magazine and he was also nominated by the U.S. Attorney for the Attorney
General’s Award.

Local Municipal Corruption


In 1994 with corruption allegations suggesting Fresno area council members were soliciting bribes in exchange for
making zoning changes, Mr. Wedick launched the REZONE investigation—again using the undercover approach to record
conversations and collect evidence—convicting 17 defendants, with 14 pleading guilty to federal RICO and corruption
violations. In the Sacramento Bee and Fresno Bee Editorials—the last titled Operation REZONE’s Painful Lessons—the FBI
was credited with exposing corrupt practices where it was "clear that the local political system…(had been) manipulated for
extraordinary personal gain at the cost of public trust."

CBS and 60 MINUTES


With allegations suggesting Medicaid Fraud had become the crime de jour for sophisticated thieves, Mr. Wedick also
launched 3 Health Care Fraud Initiatives prosecuting 324 medical providers with defrauding funds totaling in excess of $228
million. The successful FBI Initiatives attracted the attention of both broadcast and print journalists alike, including 60
Minutes’ Mike Wallace, CNN's Wolf Blitzer, and the Los Angeles Times who did a nine-part series detailing the systemic
fraudulent abuse. In the 60 Minutes piece, Wallace credited Mr. Wedick with marshaling the resources needed to combat
the crime.

Terrorism
After several officials recommended he receive an appointment to head California’s terrorism effort, in 2004, Mr. Wedick
started his own agency and in 2005 he joined the legal team representing two Lodi, California men charged with making
false statements and supporting terrorism. Because Mr. Wedick was convinced the Lodi men were innocent—commenting
the prosecution was based on a poorly done FBI interrogation, lack of corroboration, and a mishandled informant—he
“battled” the government concerning his expected testimony as an expert that was reported as a “cover” story in the LA
Times Sunday Magazine, in May 2006, and featured in a PBS FRONTLINE documentary titled, “ENEMY WITHIN,” that aired
October 2006. He also secured juror affidavits supporting a misconduct motion and, in 2007—in case dubbed LIBERTY
CITY SEVEN by the Miami media—charged the government’s use of an FBI informant who “failed” a polygraph was a
violation of the Attorney General’s Guidelines on the Use of Informants.

Distinguished Service/Professional Organizations


Lastly, in April 2004, Attorney General JOHN ASHCROFT personally praised Mr. Wedick commenting his successes
represented the finest traditions in the Department of Justice. With almost 35 years experience in the FBI, Mr. Wedick was
frequently rated an exceptional employee who routinely handled the Bureau’s most complicated and sensitive investigations,
including writing/supervising both long/short term undercover proposals/operations, used/supervised criminal informants,
monitored/recorded authorized personal/telephone conversations, was long-term undercover agent, and managed a squad
FBI agents. Currently, Mr. Wedick is a licensed California Private Investigator [PI] and Certified Fraud Specialist [CFS], and
member in good standing with the Association of Certified Fraud Specialists [ACFS], Association of Certified Fraud
Examiners [ACFE], California Association of Licensed Investigators [CALI], Sacramento County Bar Association, FBI Agents
Association [FBIAA], and Society of Former Special Agents of the FBI.

4. OPINION LETTER OF MR WEDICK

Mr Wedick, an FBI veteran, commended by


the U.S. Congress, the FBI Chief, and the
U.S. Attorney General, is a fraud specialist.

He examined the Grant Deeds for fraud


concerns, in response to request by the
property owner, Mr Joseph Zernik.

In addition to records copied here, Mr


Wedick was also provided, at his own
request, with a volume of over 500 pages of
records - a comprehensive review of Mr
Pasternak's appointment procedure and
subsequent conduct in Samaan v Zernik.

WWW.FRAUDSPECIALIS.l.S.COM

To: Dr. Joseph Zernik

Date: January 29, 2009

From: Investigator/E

Subject: Grant Deed file Attorney DAVID J. PASTERNAK,


Los Angeles Superior Court;
SAMAAN Vs. Zernik [SC087400);

In accordance with reference litigation currently ongoing in Los Angeles


Superior Court, Dr. JOSEPH ZERNIK retained the professional services of former FBI
agent JAMES J. WEDICK as an expert in white-collar-crime [Wcq, fraud and
corruption. Specifically, Mr. WEDICK was asked to examine two [2] GRANT DEEDS
purportedly prepared by Attorney DAVID J. PASTERNAK for the purposes of executing
a judgment for Specific Performance entered August 9,2007 in Los Angeles Superior
Court-requiring ZERNIK to sell his property for almost $2 million to NNIE
SAMAAN.

As background information concerning his FBI career, it should be noted


Mr. WEDICK received the FBI Director's Award for a much publicized investigation in
California that concerned several members of the California State Legislature prosecuted
for taking "bribes" with his accomplishments later cited in the U.S. Congressional
Record. Mr. WEDICK is a 34-year Bureau veteran whose performance has been praised
by U.S. Attorney General [AG] JOHN ASHCROFT as being in the "highest traditions"
of both the FBI and the U.S. Department of Justice. Commenting on his many successful
investigations, AG ASHCROFT described Mr. WEDICK's pursuits as literally "models"
for other agents to "emulate."

378 / 545
And because Mr. WEDICK was responsible for the FBI's Sacramento
based white-collar-crime corruption squad, his credentials include handling some of the
Bureau's most complicated and sensitive investigations, including prosecuting the sons
of New York mobster JOSEPH CHARLES BONANNO for conducting an illicit wire
fraud scheme; convicting GILBERT W. CHILTON for orchestrating a $50 million loan
from the California State Teachers Retirement System [STRS] to a Denver con-man-all
in return for a $1 million bribe; and prosecuting Beverly Hills resident MARK L.
NATHANSON for extorting Hollywood celebrities actor/director SYLVESTER
STALLONE, music composer BURT BACHARACH, lyricist CAROL BAYER SAGER,
entertainment moguls JEFFREY KATZENBERG, BARRY DILLER, and DAVID
GEFFEN, movie producers BLAKE EDWARDS and his wife JULIE ANDREWS,
IRWIN WINKLER and MICHAEL JACKSON's business manager SANDY GALLIN.

Mr. WEDICK also is responsible for prosecuting seventeen [17] local city
council members, land owners, and developers [in the ClovislFresno area] suspected
soliciting/receiving "bribes" in exchange for favorable zoning requests-all in violation
of the federal RICO and mail fraud statutes-and designed three [3] Health Care Fraud
Initiatives responsible for prosecuting three-twenty-four [324] Los Angeles based
medical providers suspected defrauding funds totaling in excess of $228 million from
California's Medicaid Program.

Reviewing the two [2] Grant Deeds, the first reportedly dated December 7,
2007 and the second December 17,2007, Mr. WEDICK opines the very fact two [2]
Grant Deeds exist for one transaction-each containing different information-suggests
on on-going fraud requiring immediate investigation-particularly before any documents
are allowed to be filed with a court and/or funds are disbursed.

With respect to Grant Deed #1 dated December 7,2007, Mr. WEDICK


opines reviewing the document he found DAVID J. PASTERNAK scribbled his name in
the wrong location, i.e. where the notary is required to witness the document and further
failed to sign in his capacity as receiver/grantor. Additionally, and most importantly the
Notary Public did not witness and attach a court document identifying/appointing
Attorney DAVID J. PASTERNAK as an authorized court receiver for JOSEPH
ZERNIK.

With respect Grant Deed #2 dated December 17, 2007, Mr. WEDICK
opines reviewing the document the Notary Public did not witness and failed to attach a
document identifying/appointing Attorney DAVID J. PASTERNAK as an authorized
court receiver for JOSEPH ZERNIK. Additionally, the notation, "DAVID
PASTERNAK for JOSEPH V. ZERNIK pursuant to case number SC087400," is not a
valid substitute for an authorized court order.

Accordingly, based on above observations MR. WEDICK opines an


immediate investigation should be instituted in an effort to ascertain the circumstances
behind any fraud being committed so that appropriate local, state, and federal authorities
can be notified, including the appropriate court.

Mr Steven Goldman
WCCS, FBI

RE: FIRST AMENDED COMPLAINT - UNSEALED PART, FRAUD BY COUNTRYWIDE, SAMAAN AND
OTHERS IN SAMAAN V ZERNIK (SC087400)

Mr Goldman:
Enclosed is the unsealed portion of my First Amended Complaint. I am forwarding it to you in parallel to filing it in court,
per your request. Although I am working on it as my only occupation in the last two weeks, progress was much slower
than anticipated.

Enclosed also are sealed documents filed with the Honorable C Woehrle:
a. Request for Notice of Lis Pendens
b. Evidence of adulteration of records in transfer of title on my property by Receiver Pasternak and the LA Superior
Court.

I hope to complete the main sealed portion of the complaint in the next few days, but I believe that there is plenty of data in
the unsealed portion that is worthy of your review. Please let me know if you need any additional documentation on any
particular point in this document.

In the last couple of weeks I have obtained some additional significant information in this case. I am not sure who to report
it to. Your secretary, Ann Marie, informed me that I need to file a complaint. I did file a complaint over a year ago, in January
2007, and I also submitted several hundred pages of evidence regarding Countrywide, Samaan, and others in this case at that
time. Already then I made estimates that even in a small branch, in San Rafael, California, Countrywide was funding
government-backed loans to entirely unworthy applicants to the tune of $5-10 billions a year. That was before the national interest
in Countrywide and the sub-prime industry. Agent Vallese was assigned to the case. A couple of months later, he clearly stated
that he was not interested in getting any additional information from me.
I assume that now, with the announcement in Washington DC FBI headquarters of investigation against companies in the
mortgage industry, there is interest in the subject.

Information obtained in recent weeks includes:

1) Jae Arre Lloyd – Samaan’s husband, was obviously the mind behind the all the convoluted schemes. His name
prior to 2003 was Timothy Lloyd Morrow. He has been in the finance industry for years, but never held his own
license, instead working for others, that seem not as sharp at all (here – Victor Parks). I believed all along that
there was some issue with criminal record. It now seems based on a reliable source, that the issue involved the
medical insurance and benefit funds of Skyline Funding, a real estate company based in the Valley. I could not
get additional information to confirm this detail.

My sources tell me that he amassed some fortune in the process, but it is all outside the U.S. (probably in
Europe). For that reason and others (child support delinquency) he could not show income or assets. Therefore,
the purchase was in Nivie Samaan’s name. Nivie herself probably does not own much on her own.

Also – I could not get the information regarding the litigation relative to the Skyline Funding. I believe that he
made concerted efforts to expunge records, etc. It appears that he managed to get away with a lot in that
litigation, and figuring out the parties and counsels may provide very important in formation.

2) Nivie Samaan claims that Victor Parks is Lloyd’s first cousin, but I cannot get that confirmed, on the contrary, I got
suggestions that it was not true. What is the advantage of being considered cousins? Is Victor Parks related to
Bernard Parks? Could not confirm any of it.

3) Jae Arre Llyod – started recently carrying a gun openly during his work day. He explains the need for it –
protection against Joseph Zernik. For the record, although I served in a combat unit in the Israeli army, and I am
very well trained in arms, I never held a gun at home as a matter or principle, and I am not going to change that
anytime soon.

394 / 545
 Page 2/2 May 15, 2008

4) Sustain - I believe that you do not have any authority to investigate conduct of the LA Superior Court, etc.
Regardless, I am providing you with the data, so that you have the complete picture. I believe that it was written
over 20 years ago in dBase, a data bases management package by Ashton-Tate. Ashton-Tate had a major
development center in LA County at the time, and if you get hold of anybody who worked there, you would be
able to figure things out very fast. I believe that Sustain, the way it is operated in the West District was
compromised after the initial launch, and that the initial launch was a legitimate software package, but that is just
my guess.

5) How did Judge Connor get on this case? – I suspect that her assignment order is a document that was tampered
with. I present in the complaint evidence that since day one (Jan 30, 2006) she was engaging in dishonest
conduct in this case . Who was the party who got her on? Initially I assumed it had to be Countrywide, since I
assumed Samaan and Lloyd did not have the required funds. I now re-assess that estimate, and I tend to believe
that it was Jae Arre who was directing the LA Superior Court scheme from the beginning, and Countrywide got
involved only once I filed a subpoena for documents from them in early 2006. I tend to believe that Jae Arre had
the necessary connection in the LA Superior Court from his Skyline Funding trial, but I did not have the time or
resources to figure out much more than that.

Dear Congresswoman Watson:

I am writing in response to your June 4, 2008, letter to the Department of Justice


which was forwarded to the FBI for response.

In order for the FBI to initiate an investigation of any complaint we receive,


specific facts must be set forth to indicate that a violation of federal law within our investigative
jurisdiction has occurred. Altl10ugh Mr. Zernik has made numerous allegations, there are
insufficient facts to demonstrate a violation of federal law wit11in our investigative jurisdiction or
to support the initiation of an FBI investigation.

If Mr. Zernik has further details to support his allegations, he should provide them
directly to the FBI's Los Angeles Office located at 11000 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 1700,
Los Angeles, California 90024, telephone number (310) 477-6565.

I hope this information will be helpful in responding to Mr. Zernik.

Sincerely yours,

Dear Congresswoman Feinstein:

I am writing in response to your July 25, 2008 letter to the FBI on behalf of your
constituent, Mr. Joseph Zemick, who alleges corruption in the Los Angeles Superior Courts.

Although Mr. Zemick has made numerous allegations, there are insuHicicnt facts to
demonstrate a violation of federal law within our investigative jurisdiction or to support the initiation
of an FBI investigation. In order for the FBI to initiate an investigation of any complaint we receive,
specific facts must be set forth to indicate that a violation of federal law within our investigative
jurisdiction has occurred.

In the past, Mr. Zemick has been in contact with the FBI's Los Angeles Office and
the Central District of Califomi a United States Attomey's Office regarding these same allegations. In
addition, Mr. Zernick has requested various other elected representatives to contact the FBI and the
Department of JuSlice on his behalf regarding these same allegations.

If Mr. Zernick has further details to support his allegations, he should provide them
directly to the FBI's Los Angeles Office located at 11000 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 1700, Federal
Office Building, Los Angeles, California 90024-3672, telephone number (310) 477-6565.

I hope this information will be heloful in responding to Mr. Zernick.

Attn: Mirella Nieto

Dear Senator Feinstein:

This responds to your letter dated July 25, 2008, to the Office of Legislative Affairs,
regarding your constituent, Joseph Zernik. Mr. Zernik asserts that the "Enterprise Track"
procedures for real estate foreclosure cases in the Los Angeles Superior Court violate his civil
rights and have resulted in his being improperly fined. He also complains that he has been
prevented from inspecting and copying records of the Los Angeles Superior Court.

Mr. Zernik's claims are currently pending before the United States District Court for the
Central District of California in civil action 2008cv01550. The action names Superior Court
judges and clerks as defendants. Because the issues are pending before that court, it would be
improper for us to comment on those issues.

Mr. Zernik states that he has already been in contact with the Federal Bureau of
Investigation (FBI) and the United States Attorney's Office (USAO) for the Central District of
California. Legal and ethical constraints prevent us from discussing the status of any matter
under consideration by a USAO, other than facts of public record. Please be assured, however,
that United States Attorneys' Offices take all allegations of criminal conduct very seriously and
carefully review any investigative evidence presented to suppoI1 such allegations. We encourage
Mr. Zernik to continue to provide information that evidences criminal conduct to the FBI.

We hope this information is helpful in responding to your constituent. Please do not


hesitate to contact the Department of Justice if we can be of assistance in other matters.

Sincerely,

Kenneth E. Melson

TIMELY RESPONSE REQUESTED BY 5:00 pm, MONDAY, AUGUST 3, 2009

RE: Marina v LA County (BS109420) – LA Superior Court;


Fine v Sheriff (2:09cv01914) – U.S. District Court, LA;
Fine v US Dist Ct, LA (09-71692) – U.S. Court of Appeal, 9th circuit
Meet and Confer in RE: Motion for Relief & and Immediate Release of Falsely
Jailed Att Richard Fine - Request for copies of any record of March 4, 2009
Judgment, and/or Register of Actions that were the legal foundation for the
actions of the Sheriff Department in this case.

Attorneys McCormick:

Please accept this letter as part of my Meet & Confer efforts. Your timely response is
requested so that we may avoid burdening the courts again with this matter. Please let me
know if you intend to respond by Monday, August 3, 2009, 5:00pm.

Initial Meet & Confer letter was sent after I discovered the defect in the purported Judge
David Yaffe March 4, 2009 Judgment for Contempt1,2,3 against Att Richard Fine. You were
informed of one of the inherent defects in both copies of the purported Judge David Yaffe
March 4, 2009 Judgment viewed by me to date (Copies #1, #2 - Footnotes #1, #2,
respectively). Such Judgment bears a FILED stamp of the LA Superior Court dated March 4,
2009. Copy #1 of the Judge David Yaffe March 4, 2009 Judgment was incorporated as an

Party in Interest Dr Joseph Zernik, and likewise Att Richard Fine are yet to gain access to

exhibit in the Habeas Corpus Petition of Att Richard Fine, bearing a FILED stamp of the U.S.
Dist Crt, LA, dated through hand-alteration March 20, 2009. However, both Copy #1 and
Copy #2 of the Judgment are dated Mach 24, 2009 by hand-writing pertaining to and
adjacent to the verification attributed to Judge David Yaffe.

In the course of Habeas Corpus litigation, Fine v Sheriff Department of LA County


(2:09cv01914), the Sheriff Department named by jailed Att Richard Fine as Respondent,
effectively refused to respond, and never filed in court any record that could have allowed the
Magistrate in that case “to inquire into the legality of the prisoner's detention”,
and for the imprisonment to “be shown to conform with the fundamental
requirements of law” pursuant to Fay v Noia (1963) pp. 401–402.

The Court and Judge David Yaffe, as well, failed to respond, filing an insufficient
pleading, based on declaration by counsel alone, and including the defective judgment
record described above.

Therefore, please accept this letter as a request that you inform me as soon as possible
whether the parties represented by you had in their possession on March 4, 2009, or any
time after that, the essential legal records to establish that the imprisonment of Att
Richard Fine conformed with the fundamental requirements of the law:

1) A valid March 4, 2009 Judgment for the jailing of Att Richard Fine, and

2) A Register of Actions of underlying case - Marina v LA County (BS109420)

If parties represented by you indeed holds such records, please provide me with copies as
soon as possible.

Timed response requested by Wed, August 5, 2009, 5:00pm.


Clerk Nafisi:
Please accept this letter as my request for investigation in re: Concerns regarding docketing,
maintenance of Court records, and conduct of clerical staff at the U.S. District Court, Los
Angeles in the following cases:
1) Fine v Sheriff Department of LA County (2:09-cv-01914), and
2) Zernik v Connor et al (2:08-cv-01550)
The two cases are jointly reported, since in both cases, the key persons involved included:
1) Magistrate Carla Woehrle
2) Courtroom Assistant Donna Thomas
3) Pro Se Clerk Chris Sawyer.
For both cases request was also filed for access to NEFs to inspect and to copy, and
additional concerns may be raised following review of the NEFs.
Time is of the essence, preliminary response is requested by Wed, Aug 5, 2009, 5:00 pm:
a) Whether the Clerk of the Court intends to take any action relative to instant
complaint?
b) If so – what is the estimated time for completion of such review?
c) If the complaint is reviewed – would complainant Joseph Zernik be notified
of the results of such review?
d) Is there any other specific procedure at the Court for filing complaints on
such matters?
e) Request is herein filed for access pursuant to Nixon v Warner
Communications, Inc (1978) to the Docket Activity Reports and to the
Calendar of the Courts, relative to both actions, to inspect and to copy.
1) Fine v Sheriff Department of LA County (2:09-cv-01914)
Dr Zernik got interested in the case only when it was close to the end of the legal review
process. Accordingly, Dr Zernik uncovered the issues of concern listed below, only very
recently – after the legal review process was completed. Given the central significance of the
408 / 545
z Page 2/6 August 1, 2009

record in (a) below, concern is that any untowardly event related to such record could have
resulted in perversion of justice, and the ongoing jailing of a person which should have been
released from jailing.
a)Purported Judge David Yaffe March 4, 2009 Judgment for Contempt1,2,3
appearing as part of the record (Dkt #1, Dkt #16).
Such judgment for contempt against Att Richard Fine is the central document in
the entire case. Concerns are raised regarding the validity of both copies of the
record, which appear in the docket. However, primary concern in this letter rests
with Cope #1, and the possibility that it was adulterated after being filed as a
record at the U.S. District Court, LA.
Inherent defect is apparent in both copies of the purported Judge David Yaffe
March 4, 2009 Judgment included in litigation records in this case (Copies #1, #2
- Footnotes #1, #2, respectively). Such Judgment bears a FILED stamp of the LA
Superior Court dated March 4, 2009. Copy #1 of the Judge David Yaffe March
4, 2009 Judgment was later incorporated as an exhibit in the Habeas Corpus
Petition of Att Richard Fine, bearing a FILED stamp of the U.S. Dist Crt, LA,
dated through hand-alteration March 20, 2009. Copy #2 was filed as an exhibit
on May 1, 2009. However, both Copy #1 and Copy #2 of the Judgment are dated
Mach 24, 2009 by hand-writing pertaining to and adjacent to the verification
attributed to Judge David Yaffe on the last pages of the respective Copy #1 and
Copy #2 of the purported judgment records.
Att Fine reports that the copy that he provided for submission with Dkt #1, had
no date entered in it.
The docketing text of Dkt #1 refers to changes or modifications in the records
that took place on March 24, 2009, albeit, the exact nature of the modification is
not spelled out.
On July 20, 2009 I raised such concerns regarding the purported March 4, 2009
record with Ms Sharon McGee, Supervisor of Operations in the Clerk’s Office.
She promised me to look into the matter.
On July 27, 2009 I discussed the matter with Ms McGee again. At that time she
informed me that she concurred with my opinion that there was reason for
concern in this regard, and she informed me that she raised the issue with the
court of Magistrate Woehrle.

z Page 3/6 August 1, 2009

The titles of 4 exhibits: #4,5,6,7 are missing in the record that is today seen in
Pacer, and no Exhibit Numbers are shown. Due to very limited communications
opportunity with jailed Att Richard Fine, I did not have the opportunity to review
the issue with him prior to this date. However, I am forwarding to him a copy of
this letter, hoping that he respond and state what was the nature of the respective
page in the document that he provided for filing in court.
c) Letter dated March 20, 2009 included as part of the record (Dkt #1) 5
Letter dated March 20, 2009 from Deputy Clerk Chris Sawyer to Att Richard
Fine could not possibly be part of the filing by Att Richard Fine, and it is unclear
why it is represented as such.
d) Notice of Reference to a Magistrate Judge (Dkt #2)
The assignment to a judge is listed per GO 07-02.
Concern is that no such General Order could be found.
e) Notice of Clerical Error in re: Stamp FILED on Dkt #1 (Dkt #3)
The docketing text states:
03/24/2009 3 NOTICE OF CLERICAL ERROR: On the petition the date was March
19, 2009, which is incorrect. The correct date is March 20, 2009. (rn) (Entered:
03/24/2009)
Concern is regarding confluence of unusual events relative to Dkt #1 on March
24, 2009.
f) Notice of Clerical Error in re: Assignment to judge (Dkt #4)
The docketing text states:
03/25/2009 4 NOTICE OF CLERICAL ERROR: Due to clerical error the Case has
been reassigned from Judge Dean D. Pregerson to Judge George H Wu for all
further proceedings. The case will now reflect the initials of the transferee Judge CV
09-01914 GW (CW). (rn) (Entered: 03/27/2009)
Concern is that in fact recusal of a judge, or undoing of invalid assignment, which
were not Clerical Errors were incorrectly recorded.
2) Zernik v Connor et al (2:08-cv-01550)
a) Case numbering – unusual clustering with unrelated cases, which on its

Letter dated March 20, 2009 from Deputy Clerk Chris Sawyer to Att Richard Fine.
410 / 545
z Page 4/6 August 1, 2009

On the day of filing the complaint, Plaintiff presented Pro Se Clerk, Chris
Sawyer, with valid Summons. Mr Sawyer refused to verify and issue such
summons, and insisted on generating on his own, out of compliance with Rules
of Court, false and deliberately misleading summons, which he then proceeded to
docket under the complaint in Dkt #1. Such conduct should be deemed upon
review obstruction of justice, denial of access to the court and to fair trial.
c) Notice of Reference to United States Magistrate Judge (Dkt #4)
The assignment to a judge is listed per GO 07-02.
Concern is that no such General Order could be found.
d) Order Returning Case For Reassignment Upon Recusal (Dkt
#6, #7,#8, #9, #10)
The re-assignment to a magistrate judge is listed per GO 07-02.
Concern is that no such General Order could be found.
e) Long delays I docketing of Plaintiff’s papers, and other irregularities,
resulting in substantial divergence of the records from ordinal sequence.
As a result of various delays imposed only on Plaintiff’s papers, at times over a
month, the docket shows records that diverge substantially from ordinal
sequence.
f) Docketing of unrelated papers under the same record number and the
same docketing text (Docket #52, #56, #58)
Concern is that such conduct resulted in the concealment of critical records.
g) Failure to docket records with Pacer header security blue imprint
A number of records were docketed with no blue header imprint, at times, such
inadequate docketing was corrected after complaints were filed with FBI.
h) Proofs of Service of Summons and Complaint (Dkt #43)
False records were docketed.
i) Proofs of Service of Summons and Complaint (Dkt #43)
False recording under Related Transactions.
j) Judgment (Dkt #107)
False registration as seen in Related transactions – unrelated to Complaint (Dkt
#1), which was left unterminated.
3) Concerns applicable to both cases
a) Allowing filing of papers by attorneys with no Notices of Appearances by
Counsel
At least in one case – filing of papers by Bryan Cave, LLP for Countrywide, the
evidence is rather conclusive that Bryan Cave, LLP, was never authorized to
appear as counsel of record in court for either Countrywide or Bank of America.
Instead, Bryan Cave, LLP and Countrywide and/or Bank of America Corporation
engaged in what must be deemed upon review repeat of conduct that was
rebuked by the Hon Jeff Bohm, U.S. Judge, Texas, and which Countrywide
411 / 545
z Page 5/6 August 1, 2009

promised that Court not to repeat (case of Borrower Parsley, No 05-90374,


Memorandum Opinion (Dkt #248).
b) Failure to provided adequate Corporate Disclosures in a timely manner,
and/or inclusion of Corporate data from unknown sources.
The court failed to enforce the law in re: Corporate Disclosures, and included
corporate data from unknown sources.
c) Use of manual stamps versus electronic stamps “FILED”.
In both cases certain records were stamped “FILED” using a manual stamps
instead the elecronic stamps most commonly used at the court. Concern is that
such stamps on such records represented retroactive stamping of the records.
d) Delegation of the Clerk’s authority to Courtroom Assistant.
In both cases certain clerical functions were carried out by Ms Donna Thomas,
who is upon information and belief Courtroom Assistant. Concern is whether
such functions are indeed delegated to Courtroom Assistants by the Clerk of the
Court.
e) Participation of Deputy Clerks, knowingly, in docketing records that
may not be authentic court records
Concern is regarding conduct of deputy clerks or courtroom assistants, which
may constitute docketing of records, which on their face were not authentic court
records, e.g. – summons in Zernik v Connor et al. Such conduct that may have
taken place, may be deemed upon review production of false and deliberately
misleading litigation records, and obstruction of justice and/or perversion of
justice.

f) Participation of Deputy Clerks, knowingly, in Court conduct that may


not be legitimate court procedure, and that may be deemed upon review
as abusive on its face.
Concern is regarding conduct of deputy clerks or courtroom assistants, which
may have involved participation in court conduct that out of compliance with
authentic, valid, court procedures, and may be deemed upon review as abusive in
nature, e.g. – Discrepancy procedures in Zernik v Connor et al, which were never
recorded by the court, but were recorded by plaintiff as “Perverted Discrepancy
Procedures” (Dkt #105).
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

09-08-22 Request for an opinion letter by fraud expert, decorated, veteran FBI agent James
Wedick
Hi Jim:

First – the good news is that a public non-profit organization, committed to Civil
Rights (not ACLU), informed me that they will provide me with legal assistance
starting September 2009. As you know, I have been on my own for a couple of
years now, with no qualifications in the law at all. I hope that such assistance would
allow me to gain some level of normalcy in my life. It also encouraged me, since it
meant that review of my claims and my positions by professionals found them to be
of high public policy significance, and hopefully also – a strategy and choice of
subjects that present an opportunity to prevail.

Recently, I consulted with you in re: my plans to provide evidence in one of the
international courts in re: severe, long-term Human Rights abuses by the Justice
System in LA County, and failure of the U.S. Government to comply with
International Law.

You suggested that I try to convince federal authorities to take action instead. I was
not inclined to take that route, since I have already taken the case up to Washington
DC last year, which you may have not been aware of. However, in recent days, I
reconsidered my position.

1) New circumstances have recently emerged.

A unique situation emerged I believe in LA: FBI Office Head retired, and the
Office of U.S. Attorney, Central District of California is vacant. Therefore, it may
be easier for U.S. Attorney General to take action, if he chooses to do so.

On the other hand, last year, two senior U.S. Officers in Washington DC,
Kenneth Kaiser and Kenneth Melson engaged, I alleged, in fraud on U.S.
Congress, in their responses to inquiries by Senator Feinstein and
Congresswoman Watson on my behalf.

However – a new Attorney General was appointed since then, after election of
President Obama. We hope and we trust that all U.S. Attorneys General have
the rule of law, and the U.S. Constitution as their guiding principles, and that the
staff of the office of Attorney General, and leadership of FBI act accordingly.

2) Attempt is to create a noteworthy precedent – overturning of an alleged corrupt


court judgment.

I selected what appeared to be the best case to allow U.S. Attorney General to
reverse an allegedly corrupt court judgment - the false imprisonment of Att
Richard Fine. The fraud in the judgment, in my opinion, is a kid’s play to figure
out, but as was the case in the past, nobody except you, would dare issue such
an opinion.

414 / 545
z Page 2/9 August 23, 2009

However, you too fell under undue pressure last year after issuing an opinion
letter that found fraud in operation of the LA Superior Court. Therefore, instant
letter is also forwarded as a certified, personal & confidential, restricted delivery
letter, to Att General Eric Holder, and the Chairs of the House and Senate
Judiciary Committees, John Conyers, Jr, and Patrick Leahy. They are requested
to ensure that you are not subjected to undue pressure by FBI or any other U.S.
or California State agency if you agree to engage in review of the matter at hand.

Overturning even one such allegedly corrupt case, like the false jailing of Att
Fine, can be critical in demonstrating that U.S. Attorney General, Eric Holder, is
ready, willing, and able to enforce the law and the U.S. Constitution in LA
County, California. There were too many examples to the contrary in the past
two decades, which may have led local branches of federal government, or state
and local government, to assume that they are outside the sphere where the
U.S. Constitution is applicable.

I also believe that the case of falsely jailed Att Richard Fine is one where
enforcement is relatively easy – an order to release Att Richard Fine from false
jailing by the Sheriff of LA County. Furthermore, if such release is accomplished
it would have substantial impact on the underlying issue, which led to the jailing
in the first place – the “not permitted” payments, about $45,000 per judge per
year, secretly taken for over a decade by ALL ~450 LA County judges. Att Fine
was vocal in his efforts to stop such payments, and his treatment by the court is
largely seen as retaliation for his opposition to what was called by media
“bribes”.

Moreover, the March 4, 2009 Judgment for jailing of Att Richard Fine, where
your opinion is requested, in and of itself, is not under review by any court at this
time. Most recently, the 9th circuit Court of Appeals permitted Att Richard Fine to
appeal the case of Fine v Sheriff Dept of LA County (2:09-Cv-01914) – but only
on the limited question of disqualification of “trial court judge”. In my opinion,
that transaction, under caption of Fine v Sheriff Dept of LA County, which took
place in the court of Magistrate Carla Woehrle was not at all, an authentic case
of the U.S. District Court (see below). Therefore, I perceive the deliberately
ambiguous order,1 permitting such limited appeal, as further abuse of Att Richard
Fine by the justice system.

If you decide to review the question at hand, and then issue the requested
opinion letter, I intend to forward that letter to the same parties – U.S. Attorney
General, and the Chairs of the Judiciary Committees, and request that they
finally take immediate action to stop the false jailing of Att Richard Fine.

If Att Fine is released thanks to such opinion letter that you may agree to issue
upon review of the matter, it would be a historic day for justice in California.
Rumor had it that Chief Justice of California Supreme Court, Ronald George,
was determined to have Att Fine remain jailed. Therefore, there was no chance

ONLY on a limited question.

that any attorney or any judge in California would now dare to act upon this
matter to the contrary.

3) Dynamics of corruption in the courts – cases are deceitfully conducted that are
not part of the California Superior court system, where the judges deem
themselves free to rule in violation of the law. Furthermore, such corrupt rulings,
orders, and judgments are immutable.

The basic fraud in the case is a judgment fraud, of the type that were common in
medieval times… and are now frequent in LA County. In that respect the case,
Marina v LA County (BS109420) resembles Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) and
Galdjie v Darwish (SC052737), and other cases – Enterprise Track cases of
the court, which were never cases of the Superior Court of California. In all
of these cases, there never was a valid effectual judgment, but the judges
tried to enforce execution of such ineffectual judgments on the parties.

The reason for the frequent Judgment Frauds in LA County, is that there is
no Judgment Book, neither on paper, nor digital, and therefore, no valid entry
of judgment. Initially it appears absurd – why would a judge issue an invalid
judgment in a case where he/she is biased and wants the judgment to
represent his/her bias?

However, under conditions now prevailing in the justice system in California,


and possibly throughout the U.S., such false judgments are ideal for that
purpose:

a) Trial court judges consider themselves not bound by U.S. law, or for
instant matter – by California law - when ruling in such cases that they
conduct and are NOT at all cases of the California Superior Court (or U.S.
District Court, respectively). Furthermore, the review courts concur with
such position, which on its face is of criminal nature and severe abuse of
Human Rights per International Law.

Such conclusions may sound unbelievable. However, suffice is to review


the seven petitions filed at the California Court of Appeals, 2nd District, by
Zernik in Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) on each and every step in the
alleged criminal conduct of judges in that case. All such petitions were
summarily denied. Finally, the last petition only claimed that the Justices
of the California Court of Appeal, 2nd District, were reliably informed of
conduct of other judges that was in violation of the law, and should
therefore initiate corrective action. That petition seemed to be difficult for
the justices to deny, but they denied that one as well, after some delays,
nevertheless.
Similarly, the U.S. District Court, LA, went out of its way to defend alleged
criminality in both Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) and Marina v County
(BS109420). The respective cases in U.S. Court being Zernik v Connor
et al (2:08-cv-01550), and Fine v Sheriff Dept of LA County (2:09-Cv-
01914), both show recusals by a number of judges, with no clear
explanations, and both were eventually referred to Magistrate Carla
Woehrle.
416 / 545
z Page 4/9 August 23, 2009

Furthermore, the U.S. Court of Appeals, 9th Circuit, similarly, created


allegedly perverted, invalid, unauthenticated proceedings originating from
both of U.S. District Court, LA, cases. Using such invalid proceedings, the
U.S. Court of Appeals, 9th Circuit upheld and defended the allegedly
perverted judgments issued by the U.S. District Court, LA, which in turn
upheld and defended the alleged criminality inherent in the judgments of the
LA Superior Court in the two underlying cases. The respective cases at the
U.S. Court of Appeals, 9th Circuit were Zernik v LA Superior court, LA (08-
72714), and Fine v U.s. District Court LA (2:09-Cv-01914).
Such alleged perverted proceedings at the LA Superior Court and the
U.S. Courts are made possible through case management systems that
must be deemed fraudulent upon review, and which were installed in the
courts without due public oversight (Rule Making Enabling Act and Nixon
v Warner Communication, Inc)
A theme that recurred in both Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) and Galdjie
v Darwish (SC052737), and could possibly serve as the perverted legal
logic for such position by trial court judges, was that such litigations were
conducted pursuant to the historical “Equity Rights” rather than Statutory
Law.
b) Trial court judges consider such rulings and orders and judgments, which
are alleged as criminal in nature, in cases that are deceitfully conducted
in courthouses, but are NOT part of the California Superior Court system,
or the U.S. Court system, as irreversible. Furthermore, the review courts
concur with such position, which on its face is of criminal nature.
The same examples listed above apply to this conclusion as well. The
misguided legal thinking that presumably drives such conclusion, is that
the review courts have no authority to review such rulings, orders, and
judgments, since they are not issued in true court cases. However, the
review courts should have initiated corrective actions in such cases,
pursuant to the U.S. and/or California Judicial Codes of Conduct/Ethics.
Instead, review courts issue denials, albeit – reasoned through
ambiguous or at time plainly ludicrous legal rationale.
For example, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, uses a standard reasoning
in such cases, seen both in Zernik v U.S. District Court, LA ( ) and in
Fine v U.S. District Court, LA (2:09-Cv-01914). Similar language was
used in other cases as well, e.g. Haddick v U.S. District Court, LA (97-
50090): Such cases never amounted to the level that would justify
intervention by the extreme measure of a mandate…and therefore
denials were issued in a reasoned, unsigned, unpublished court orders…
Combined, the two allegedly corrupt notions listed above, which may be
seen as false consensus among at least some of judiciary, give rise to one of
the basic, unpublished Rules of Court:
An honest court ruling, order, or judgment may be overturned. A
corrupt court ruling, order, or judgment – shall not be overturned.
Supervising Judge Gerald Rosenberg explained that rule, also in writing, to
Zernik, when Zernik applied for an order to set aside the orders and rulings
417 / 545
z Page 5/9 August 23, 2009

of Judge Connor, after disqualifying her for a cause, for conduct that upon
review must be deemed as criminal.
Supervising Judge Rosenberg reasoned his refusal to hear an ex parte
application to set aside Judge Jacqueline Connor’s rulings, orders, and
judgments as follows:
We are all independently elected constitutional officers…
And also:
No judge in West District will overturn another.
Needless to say, the California law2 states the opposite -Good cause apparent –
the rulings, orders, and judgments of a judge that was disqualified for a cause
should be set aside upon review by his/her peers.
4) Records for your review and consideration

The following records are presented for your review as part of the requested
opinion letter.

a) March 4, 2009 Judgment for jailing of Att Richard Fine by Judge David Yaffe,
in Marina v County (BS109420), LA Superior Court. Such judgment was
purportedly the foundation for the indefinite jailing, for contempt, ever since
March 4, 2009, of Attorney Richard Fine. Five (5) variants of the records
were retrieved from sources as follows:

i. Copy filed May 1, 2009 by Att McCormick on behalf of Judge David


Yaffe and the LA Superior Court as exhibit in the response to habeas
corpus petition in Fine v Sheriff Dept of LA County. Of note – he did not
use a certified copy from the court file itself. Instead, it appeared that he
obtained a copy from the Sheriff Department. Such conduct would
indicate further attempt on behalf of the LA Superior Court and Judge
David Yaffe, as well as Clerk John Clarke, to distance themselves from
the alleged fraudulent Judgment record. It also is likely to be seen as
distancing themselves from any claims made by Att McCormick on their
behalf, therefore generating plausible deniability.

Please notice the fax header imprints on the record, which may show
that the Sheriff Department had no such record during the hearing on
the morning of March 4, 2009. I am reliably informed that Att Fine never
had a copy of the judgment on March 4, 2009 either.

Also please notice that the judgment record came with no


documentation of Service and Notice of Entry by a Clerk.

ii. Copy filed March 19, or 20, 2009 (the stamp is a manual stamp in lieu
of the standard electronic clock used in U.S. District Court LA, and the
date was hand altered) with the habeas corpus petition in Fine v
Sheriff Dept of LA County. The docketing text of the petition includes
an cryptic note that exhibits were modified on March 24, 2009, with no
explanation at all.

us-dist-ct-habeas-corpus-petition-filed-march-20-2009.pdf

iii. Copy received by Zernik on July 20, 2009 by fax from Att Naftalin.
Conditions surrounding the filing of the habeas corpus petition were
strange and abusive. Att Fine was held for a long period in solitary
confinement, with no access to pen and paper, hardly any visitors,
and hardly any communication with the outside world. He was denied
even the right to visit the jail library, under claim that he had no proper
registration as a pro-se litigant… Major efforts were made to force him
to take representation by an attorney. Att Fine refused, and I fully
agree with his position, given my experience with LA Attorneys, under
pressure by judges. At the end, the petition was compromised – he
gave instructions by phone to a former client John Rizzo, and John
got some assistance from Att Naftalin, and that was how the petition
was filed, but without an original signature of Att Fine.

When I approached Att Naftalin and John Rizzo with questions about
the source of the record that they filed in court as judgment, John
would not answer at all. Att Naftalin eventually faxed me the record
shown here. However, by phone he took the position that appeared
to try to convince me that this is all minor “procedural details”, and that
I had no clue what I was talking about.

c) Entry of Judgment in LA County, California:

A short summary of current California Code sections and local Rules of Court
of LA County that pertain to the Entry of Judgment, to make it effectual
pursuant to California Code. Also - my observations regarding the practice of
the court relative to Entry of Judgments, which I hold is contrary to the Code
and local Rules of Court in the past 25 years – since computers were
introduced in the court, without ever updating the Local Rules of Court, and
without implementing a computerized system that complies with the law. My
opinion is that such discrepancy made the entry of judgment, a critical part of
the administration of justice vague and ambiguous, and deliberately so.

was received. Prior to sending the written request I also spoke with Rizzo
once or twice by phone and asked for explanation. He gave none.

U.S. Court records in Fine v Sheriff Department of LA County (2:09-Cv-

Fine v Sheriff of LA County (2:09-Cv-01914), and Zernik v Connor et al
(2:08-cv-01550) at the U.S. District Court, LA, where concerns is that
litigations were entirely based on invalid, unauthenticated records, but such
facts were concealed from Plaintiffs Fine and Zernik through segregation of

420 / 545
z Page 8/9 August 23, 2009

parties to one of dual docketing systems at the U.S. Courts – Pacer and
CM/ECF. Access is so far denied.
http://inproperinla.com/09-08-19-denial-of-accessto-court-records-at-us-district-court-s.pdf

5) Notes regarding records that were missing, or where access is denied, and
could be critical for the case.

a) Nowhere to be found is any Certificate of Mailing/Service and Notice of Entry


by a Clerk, pertaining to the March 4, 2009 Judgment by Judge David Yaffe
in Marina v County (BS109420) for Jailing of Att Richard Fine.

b) Likewise, the March 4, 2009 Minute Order by Judge David Yaffe, In Marina v
County (BS109420) came with no Certificate of Mailing and Notice of Entry
by Clerk.

c) The LA Superior Court would not allow me access to essential litigation


record - the Register of Actions (equivalent to Docket in the U.S. courts) in
Marina v County (BS109420) to inspect and to copy per Nixon v Warner
Communications, Inc (1978).

d) The Sheriff, which was named respondent, refused to respond to the habeas
corpus petition, and Magistrate Woehrle allowed it to stay that way.

e) The LA Superior Court, which eventually produced a response in lieu of the


Sheriff, failed to ever produce the Register of Actions, and also failed to
produce a declaration under penalty of perjury by Judge David Yaffe, or by
any other Officer of the Court, to provide sufficient foundation for the
pleading in response to the habeas corpus petition. And therefore, again, the
judgment record may be deemed lacking in foundation. Magistrate Woehrle
accepted such insufficient pleading, supported by declaration by counsel
only, and based her recommendation on it.

6) Notes regarding records that were excluded, but would be provided upon
request.

As was the case in the past, I believe that the smaller the number of papers that
are required to reach an opinion of fraud, the strongest the opinion is. Listed and
described below are records which I excluded, but would provide upon request.

a) May 1, 2009 Response by LA Superior Court and Judge David Yaffe to


habeas corpus petition of Att Richard Fine in Fine v Sheriff Dept of LA
County (2:09-Cv-01914), based on declaration by Counsel McCormick, who
had not participated in Marina v County (BS109420) at the LA Superior
Court at all.

b) Papers related to review by Magistrate Woehrle a year earlier, of an almost


identical situation – invalid judgment in Samaan v Zernik (SC087400), which
she reviewed in Zernik v Connor et al (2:08-cv-01550). Review of the latter
case could possibly be instructive, since it could help in assessing what part
of her writing could possibly be oversight, and what part was possibly
deliberate perversion of justice. However, I am concerned that it would
421 / 545
z Page 9/9 August 23, 2009

require a large volume of records, and it pertains to a question that should be


excluded from the opinion letter, I believe.

7) Question defined, where your review and a Fraud Expert opinion letter are
requested

The only question that you are asked to consider and issue a Fraud Expert
opinion on, is the following:

a) Was there ever any possibility, based on the records provided, that a valid,
effectual judgment for the jailing of Att Richard Fine was entered, as required
by California law, by Judge David Yaffe on March 4, 2009, which was the
foundation for the legality of the jailing by the Sheriff Department of LA
County since then to this date?3

Self-evident questions, such as the ones listed below, would better be left for
review by others, or by you, at a different time, under a different mandate:

b) What was the nature of the various records of the March 4, 2009 Judgment?

c) What was the nature of the conduct of parties such as Judge David Yaffe,
Magistrate Carla Woehrle, LA County Sheriff, Counsel for the Sheriff,
Counsel for Yaffe, Att Naftalin, and others?

Conclusion:

I have no doubt that you realize the true significance of this request in the larger
picture of the integrity of the Justice System of the United States of America, and the
safeguard of Civil Rights pursuant to the Amendments to the U.S. Constitution and
Human Rights pursuant to ratified International Law. I am the first to admit that I am
entirely unqualified for the job that fell in my lap, and I also am lacking in perspective.

Regardless, based on studying of the underlying issues, I believe that the U.S.
justice system was severely undermined in the process of introduction of computers
into the court.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Joseph Zernik.

The basic review standards for a habeas corpus petition were defined by the U.S. Supreme
Court in Fay v Noia (1963), written by the late Justice Brennan: In a writ of habeas corpus, a
U.S. Judge is petitioned to: “to inquire into the legality of the prisoner's detention”, and that the
standard of review in such inquiry is:
…if the imprisonment cannot be shown to conform with the fundamental
requirements of law, the individual is entitled to his immediate release.

09-08-29 Request for access to court records, to inspect and to copy in SEC v BAC (1:09-cv-
06829), and related questions about Rules of the Court at U.S. District Court,
Southern District of NY

August 29, 2009

J. Michael McMahon, Clerk of Court


MANHATTAN FOLEY SQUARE COURTHOUSE
Daniel Patrick Moynihan
United States Courthouse
500 Pearl St.
New York, NY 10007-1312
(by certified mail USPS,
return Receipt, restricted delivery)

Mr McMahon:

I am a resident of Los Angeles County, California. I had interest in SEC v BAC


(1:09-cv-06829), and I got permission by the Honorable Jed Rakoff, presiding in
the case, to submit a letter regarding the settlement proposal by parties to the
case, now before the Court.

Therefore, I am for first time accessing records in your District, and I apologize
for my ignorance. I made efforts to access court records of the U.S. Court for the
Southern District of NY, to inspect and to copy, pursuant to Nixon v Warner
Communications, Inc (1978), and I was only partially successful. In that
decision, the U.S. Supreme Court re-affirmed the fundamental right to access
court records, to inspect and to copy. The Supreme Court found it to be
grounded in Common Law rights, older than the U.S. Constitution, and also in
the First, Sixth, and Fifth/Fourteenth Amendments.

I am also writing this letter as part of my efforts to document the state of such
rights in the various courts today, at the end of the dynamic period of transition
from paper to digital records. Today I believe that the last of the U.S. Courts,
including the U.S. Courts of Appeals, have installed Pacer and CM/ECF.
However, I have by now found out that the various Districts and the various
Courts of Appeals vary in their implementation of Pacer and CM/ECF platforms.

In part, I am trying to document to what extent the new customs, whatever they
are in the various Districts, are based in published Law and published Rules of
Court. My findings so far indicate that in the transition from paper administration
to digital administration, many rules were added, removed, or changed, but
many were never published in their new form – as practiced in reality, based on
the configuration of Pacer CM/ECF. The Rule Making Enabling Act 28 USC
§2071-7, clearly prescribed the procedures for updating the Rules of Court, and
the Clerk of the Court typically holds a central position in this function.
424 / 545
z Page 2/10 August 29, 2009

In the case at hand, I noticed with great appreciation the care to detail by the
Court of the Honorable Rakoff, relative to the entry of Orders by the Court. It
reflected an effort to make the certification and authentication of such orders
clear and unambiguous, and visibly accessible to all. Not all share such
practices.

I spoke with three different offices of the court, the last of which was Mr Wolfson.
All persons were kind and tried to be helpful. However, I was unable to exercise
my rights. Furthermore, some of my questions, which fall on the “theoretical
side” were not the kind that staff is routinely used to answer. Therefore, Mr
Wolfson suggested that I address them in writing to you. I included here many
more questions than I ever asked by phone.

The questions below, and your answers to them, are directly relevant to the
letter I am to compose in re: Settlement now before the Court in SEC v BAC
(1:09-cv-06829). I would therefore be grateful if you could initially at least
provide an estimate when you would be able to complete the answers, or some
general view of the types of answers that may be generated in a phone call.

I will try to contact your office later this week in this regard.

1) Civil Docket:
My understanding is that the U.S. Court, Southern District of NY, like most
other U.S. courts, now keeps at least three separate and unequal dockets,
and various persons are assigned different access privileges:

a. Docket in the paper file


b. Docket in CM/ECF
c. Docket in Pacer

FRCP, Rule 79, says:

Rule 79. Records Kept by the Clerk


(a) Civil Docket.
(1) In General.
The clerk must keep a record known as the “civil docket” in the
form and manner prescribed by the Director of the Administrative
Office of the United States Courts with the approval of the
Judicial Conference of the United States. The clerk must enter
each civil action in the docket. Actions must be assigned
consecutive file numbers, which must be noted in the docket
where the first entry of the action is made.

a) Which of the three dockets 1) a) – c) listed above is/are the “civil docket”
referred to in the Rule 79?
b) I request access to inspect and to copy the writings that are the “form and
manner prescribed by the Director of the Administrative Office of the
United States Courts”. Is it available online somewhere?

425 / 545
z Page 3/10 August 29, 2009

c) Is there any other basis in the law or in Rules of Court for the custom of
keeping such multiple different dockets with different access privileges for
different persons?

2) Action type and numbering


a) Action numbers in your District, like other Districts, are of the general
syntax <o:yy-tt-11111>, where-

O: is Office, here designated “1”


yy: is Year, here designated “09”
tt: is Type, here designated “cv”
11111: is Number, here designated “06829”
However, the practices relative to application of this general syntax vary
among the Districts:
i. What are the rules for designation of each of these parameters in your
District? Are they based in Law or Rules of Court?
ii. How many Office designations are used in the District, and subject to
which rules?
iii. What are the rules relative to year designation?
iv. How many types are used in your District, which are they by name,
and what the are the rules for their application I a given action.
v. What are the rules for assignment of the Number to a given action?
b) Case association – numbering of the actions, and implied rules relative to
assignment, shared records, evidence, calendars, etc

Question pertains to actions that have shared parties, shared subject


matter, shared evidence, or other features that require some coordination
that normally is not required between independent actions in the court.

i. How are such associations among cases implemented, if ever, in


case numbering in your District?
ii. What are the implications of designation of association between cases
in your District? E.g. rules in re: Assignment, reference, or other rules.
iii. What is the basis for such practices in the Law or Rules of Court?

3) Summons in general and in SEC v BAC (1:09-cv-06829) in particular:


FCRP, Rule 79 says:
(2) Items to be Entered.
The following items must be marked with the file
number and entered chronologically in the docket:
(A) papers filed with the clerk;
(B) process issued, and proofs of service or other returns
showing execution; and records required by the Director of the
Administrative Office of the United States Courts with the
approval of the Judicial Conference of the United States.
(C) appearances, orders, verdicts, and judgments.
426 / 545
z Page 4/10 August 29, 2009

(3) Contents of Entries; Jury Trial Demanded.


Each entry must briefly show the nature of the paper filed or writ
issued, the substance of each proof of service or other return,
and the substance and date of entry of each order and judgment.
….
(b) Civil Judgments and Orders.
The clerk must keep a copy of every final judgment and
appealable order; of every order affecting title to or a lien on real
or personal property; and of any other order that the court directs
to be kept. The clerk must keep these in the form and manner
prescribed by the Director of the Administrative Office of the
United States Courts with the approval of the Judicial
Conference of the United States.

(d) Other Records.


The clerk must keep any other records required by the Director
of the Administrative Office of the United States Courts with the
approval of the Judicial Conference of the United States.

a) Summons as issued by the Clerk of the Court: I request the that the Clerk
of the Court provide the basis for the respective custom in the law, or in
the Rules of Court.

Summons as issued were not docketed in the case at hand in Pacer, and
I was told that the U.S. Court, Southern District of NY does not docket the
summons as issued in the two other dockets as well. I will have to ask
Plaintiff for a copy.

b) Summons as executed: I request that the Clerk of the Court provide the
basis for the respective custom in the law, or in the Rules of Court.

I was told that summons as executed are not docketed in any of the
dockets as well, only the service is noted as docketing text, but the
records themselves are not posted in any of the docket.

4) Stamps and NEFs for papers that are filed on paper by parties
I assume that all papers by parties that arrive at the desk of the clerk in
person or by mail are stamped with date.
a) Are any papers that arrive by parties in actions of the court not stamped
at all?
b) I assume you use “FILED” and “RECEIVED”, are they both electronic?
i. What are the Rules of Court relative to the use of FILED vs
RECEIVED?
ii. Is the use of non-electronic stamps allowed in the court?
iii. Is the alteration by hand of dates on the stamps allowed in the court?
iv. Who is authorized to stamp papers in the court?
v. Who is authorized to make entries in docketing sheets I the courts?

427 / 545
z Page 5/10 August 29, 2009

vi. Are NEF or any other notices issued in CM/ECF when a paper that
was filed on paper in court was entered in the docketing sheet by the
Clerk?

5) NEFs for papers that are electronically filed by parties, in general and in
SEC v BAC (1:09-cv-06829) in particular:
NEFs for electronically filed papers include the Proof of Service, which FRCP
Rule 79, (2)(b), quoted above, required to be docketed. However, NEFs are
not accessible in Pacer, and I was unsuccessful in my attempts to gain
access to inspect and to copy.
I requested to obtain the printouts of NEFs of papers filed by parties. It appeared
that several of the Deputies, and even law clerks were not clear about the
location and significance of the NEFs. Possibly – they are also used to the
current state of affairs that they are not accustomed to Proofs of Service
practice. However, when I directed them to the NEFs in CM/ECF they seemed
to be clear that I was NOT allowed to obtain copies of such records.

Mr Wolfson stated that the parties file paper copies of the NEFs with a paper
copy of the papers that they filed electronically. However, he was not aware of
the fact that those who are not you specific district CM/ECF authorized users
cannot see the NEFs, since such records were stripped from the original
electronic filings in Pacer.

a) Request to obtain paper copies of the NEFs (no need to copy the papers
themselves, I have them downloaded from Pacer) of all paper electronically
filed by parties in the case at hand.

There are less than a dozen papers in total, and I will contact the office of the
Clerk of the Court with cc details by phone. I am asking if I am allowed to
obtain the copies of the NEFs from paper court file in the first place.

b) Request to obtain digital copies of the NEFs of all papers electronically filed
by parties in the case at hand.

I am asking if I am allowed to obtain digital copies of the NEFs, e.g. in the


form that such NEFs were emailed in the first place, since such records in
their true original form are digital records. If I am allowed, I prefer to get
digital copies rather than paper copies. Payment arrangements will be cc by
phone.

c) Request to inspect the NEFs of all papers electronically filed by parties in the
case at hand, as separate right from the right to copy.

I am asking whether I would be allowed to inspect the NEFs in their true


original form (e.g. – the way that such NEFs are displayed on CM/ECF for
your district authorized users) from a terminal at the court site, if I come to the
Office of the Clerk of the Court during business hours.

428 / 545
z Page 6/10 August 29, 2009

d) Request for references to Law or Rules of Court that are the foundation for
whatever the practice is in your district relative to 3) a) - c) above.

6) Rejection of papers filed by parties/striking papers off the record


I am readily familiar with Discrepancy procedures.
Question pertains to any practices at the District Court that would result in
papers, after being conveyed into possession of the Clerk of the Court, not
being stamped, not being docketed, directives issued verbally by a judge or
a magistrate to the Clerk of the Court, pursuant to which such papers are
denied any mention in the docket, and no record is generated in the court file
in Pacer or CM/ECF of the disappearance of such papers from the action.
If such procedures exist in your District, are they based on published Law or
Rules of Court?
7) NEFs for Orders entered by Court
The U.S. Constitution, Art. IV §I declares:
Full faith and credit shall be given in each state to the public
acts, records and judicial proceedings of every other state. And
congress may by general laws prescribe the manner in which
such acts, records and proceedings shall be proved, and the
effect thereof.

By the U.S. Congress Act of May 26, 1790, it is provided:

That the act of the legislatures of the several states shall be


authenticated by having the seal of their respective states affixed
thereto: That the records and judicial proceedings of the courts
of any state shall be proved or admitted, in any other court within
the United States, by the attestation of the clerk, and the seal of
the court annexed, if there be a seal, together with a certificate of
the judge, chief justice or presiding magistrate, as the case may
be, that the said attestation is in due form. And the said records
and judicial proceedings, authenticated as aforesaid, shall have
such faith and credit given to them, in every court within the
United States, as they have, by law or usage, in the courts of the
state from whence the said records are, or shall be taken.

NEFs include the attestations by Clerk of the Court in digital court file, and
therefore are critical part of Court records. NEFs also include the Proof of
Service or Certificate of Mailing by Clerk respective to such orders. Therefore,
such NEFs are critical part of Court File.

It was not clear to me at the end what the practice was relative to the NEFs for
Orders filed by Court, and whether paper copies of the NEFs are docketed in the
paper file of the court. It appeared that such was not the practice. It was clear
that I was unable to obtain any copies of such NEFs in any form.

a) I request to know what the practice is relative to docketing of NEFs of Orders


by the court in the three dockets a) – c) listed above, and what the foundation
is for the practice of your District in the Law or Rules off Court.
429 / 545
z Page 7/10 August 29, 2009

b) I request to exercise my right to inspect the NEFs for Orders filed by the
Court, and for the foundation of whatever the practice is in your District in
Law or Rules of Court.

The question is whether I would be allowed to inspect the NEFs in their true
original digital form, e.g. – from a terminal in the Office of the Clerk of the
Court – the way they are displayed in CM/ECF for users of your own District,
if I come to the Office of the Clerk of the Court during business hours.

c) I request to exercise my right to copy the NEFs for the Orders filed by the
Court, on paper and/or in digital form, and for the foundation of whatever the
practice is in Law or Rules of Court.

The question is whether I would be allowed to copy the NEFs for the Orders,
either on paper, and/or in their true original digital form, e.g. – from a terminal
in the Office of the Clerk of the Court – the way they are displayed in
CM/ECF for users of your own District, if I come to the Office of the Clerk of
the Court during business hours.

8) Filing and entering by the Clerk of the Court of unsigned Orders and
Judgments
Is there such practice in your District of filing and/or entering orders and
judgments by the Clerk of the Court that are not signed by a judge, and are
posted online in Pacer and/or CM/ECF, and are stated in the docketing sheet
as “unsigned, unpublished” orders or judgments, and the final outcome of a
court action?
Is so, are such practices based in Law or Rules of Court?
9) Removal of papers and orders from public view in Pacer and/or
CM/ECF
I am readily familiar with sealing procedures for paper records, that are
stipulated by Law and Rules of Court. The question pertains to removal of
papers or orders from public view on Pacer or CM/ECF, outside of cases
where papers were sealed by court procedure.
a) What is the practice in your District regarding removal of papers or orders
from public view on Pacer?
b) Is there such practice of never filing papers or orders for public view in
the first place?
c) Are such practices founded in Law or Rules of Court?
10) Digital signatures in docketing sheet of electronic dockets in Pacer and
CM/ECF, and hand signatures in docketing sheet of paper court file.
a) Request to inspect and to copy hand signatures that are the attestations
in the paper court file of papers and Orders by the Court.

The question is whether or not you keep a docketing sheet with the paper
court file, and whether the docketing sheet includes hand signatures of
the clerk who entered the notes.
430 / 545
z Page 8/10 August 29, 2009

Also- Are the same docketing notes, by the same clerk, and same
signature as the one who entered digital docketing notes?

Also- Is there a hand signature of the Clerk attesting on the face of the
record in the paper court file.

b) Request to inspect and to copy digital signatures that are the attestation
in the electronic court file in the docketing sheet.

The docketing sheet in Pacer shows the initials of the clerks, and I am
informed that these initials correspond to full digital signatures in the
docketing sheet in CM/ECF. However, any tags that would have allowed
to ascertain the authenticity of such digital signatures were stripped from
the Pacer system.

The question is whether I would be allowed to inspect and to copy the


docketing sheet in CM/ECF if I show up in the Office of the Clerk of the
Court during business hours.

Additional question is for the basis of the custom in your district, whatever
it is in the Law or Rules of Court.

11) Other reports in Pacer or in CM/ECF


Your District provides public access in Pacer to reports such as Calendars,
Docket Activity Report, and Related Transaction Report. The various districts
vary in which reports they allow public access to in Pacer.
Question is –
a) Which reports are accessible in CM/ECF in your District?
b) Would I be allowed to access such reports as are accessible in CM/ECF if I
come to the Clerk’s Office during working hours?
c) What is the basis in the Law or Rules of Court for the practices as they are,
for which reports are allowed public access and which are not in either Pacer
or CM/ECF.
12) Other reports and access privileges to such reports in your District
a) What other reports are available in CM/ECF, in Pacer, or in any equivalent
system, that are accessible only in the Judicial level in your District.
Request is for: (i) The list of the names of such reports, (ii) Short description
of the substance of the report, such as would appear in an overview manual,
and (iii) The name of the system or access portal, (iv) The general
description of class of persons allowed access to such reports.
b) What is the basis in Law or Rules of Court for the practice as described in 7)
a).
13) Access to U.S. District Court records by the respective U.S. Court of
Appeals
a) Request is for information which level access is permitted to the Justices of
the respective U.S. Court of Appeals from either Court of Appeals location or
431 / 545
z Page 9/10 August 29, 2009

otherwise, and the foundation for the practice of your District, whichever it is,
in the Law or Rules of Court.
The question pertains to which level access is provided through terminals in
the respective U.S. Court of Appeals: Pacer, CM/ECF, Judicial level access?
14) Pacer Dictionary and rules pertaining to docketing, Docketing Activity
Report, Related Transactions Report, and related issues.
a) Dictionaries
Various functions in Pacer provide variables where the input are words that
are commonly used in natural language, but in Pacer or CM/ECF, such use
is restricted as valid values that may be entered in given variables. For
example, in Docketing Activity Report, a paper can be designated as
“Motion”, but it can also be designated as “Misc”, however, I assume that if
you tried to designate it “Green”, the system would reject that value as invalid
for the variable.
Request is for access to inspect and to cop the Pacer and CM/ECF
Dictionaries of words that are permitted by the programs as valid values to be
entered in the various variables, and their specific rules of use.
b) Accountability and quality assurance for true and correct use of Dictionaries
in docketing.
i. What are the practices in your district regarding accountability for true
and correct use of Dictionaries in docketing?
ii. Are there any conditions where values can be entered for a given
variable, which are meaningless, and are accepted by the programs?
For example, if “Motion” may be an acceptable paper type, “motion”
may not. If the program allowed “motion” to be entered, it would have
no meaning for the program.
iii. What is the basis in Law or Rules of Court for such practice?
iv. Is the public allowed comments on errors in the use of such
Dictionaries in docketing?
c) Rules of court in re: assignment of terminations, and missing adjudications
i. What are the rules in your District regarding assignment of Related
Transactions and Terminations?
ii. What are the rules in re: missing adjudications?
d) Reports that list adjudications
The reports that are publicly accessible in Pacer conspicuously fail to list the
adjudication of the motion themselves – Granted, Denied, Moot, etc.
Request is regarding other reports that may list the adjudications, and the
basis for their constructions and denial of public access privileges, and the
basis for such practices in Law or Rules of Court.

432 / 545
z Page 10/10 August 29, 2009

I apologize for the lengthy requests, surely you realize the significance of the
questions. In fact, not being a lawyer, I was astonished by the fact that in most
courts I was the first one ever who made such requests. I believe that the Common
Law right to access court records, to inspect and to copy, is not only a right, but also
a duty. A public that does not perform his duties is to blame for any deficiencies in
the system as we see it.

Attorneys for SEC & BAC:


In my letter to the Clerk of U.S. Court, Southern District of New York, J Michael
McMahon, dated August 29, 2009, 1 I stated that my efforts this past week to
access records in litigation referenced above, to inspect and to copy, were so far
unsuccessful.
Therefore, I request that you provide me copies of litigation records, listed
below, and take additional actions that would allow me, and the public at large,
at least minimal transparency into the nature of the court action, as required by
law pursuant to Common Law as well as First, Fifth, and Sixth Amendment
Rights re-affirmed by the U.S. Supreme Court in Nixon v Warner
Communications, Inc (1983).
Such records and actions are also requested so that I may proceed to complete
my letter to the Hon Jed Rakoff, in re: settlement proposal, with minimal delays
relative to the previously proposed schedule. 2

Please fax and/or email to me no later than 5:00 pm on Monday, August 31,
2009, copies of the following records, together with a declaration by a Custodian
of Records in this regard:
1. NEFs (Notices of Electronic Filing) of all papers filed by parties and of all
orders filed by the Court in this action so far (each NEF is about 1-2
pages long, for a total of about a dozen records), both as PDFs and as
digital files such as they are displayed in CM/ECF. Copies of the records
themselves are not requested.
2. Summons, as issued by clerk.
3. Summons, as an executed record.
The litigation records in SEC v BAC, as they were so far published, must be
deemed uninformative and confusing, vague and ambiguous U.S. government
records relative to integrity of operations and integrity of conduct of senior
officers at Bank of America Corporation (BAC). Such U.S. government records
were doubly offensive since they were published by initiative of SEC, a U.S.
government agency, whose mission was and is to protect investors and
safeguard the integrity of markets. Furthermore, such initiative was taken by
SEC in the midst of the worse crisis in the operation of U.S. financial institutions
and markets in almost a century.
The current crisis inflicted harm on investors and workers world-wide, and such
persons, from Basel to Beijing share the Common Law rights of access to U.S.
Court litigation records.

09-09-02 In re: Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) demands for Clerk John Clarke’s compliance with
the law:
1) Demand to remove any reference to Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) from LA
Superior Court “Case Summaries” online;
2) Demand to ensure that no Deputy Clerk is present in purported Case Conference
on September 23, 2009, and
3) Demand that no Deputy Clerk enter any additional Minute Orders in John
Clarke’s name in Sustain under such caption.

September 2, 2009

John A Clarke
Executive Officer/Clerk of the Court
Superior Court of California for the County of Los Angeles
< jclarke@lasuperiorcourt.org >
< 12136217952@efaxsend.com >
(by fax and by email)

Timely compliance with the law is demanded, no later than Friday, September 4, 2009, 5:00 pm

Mr Clarke:

I recently noticed that the “Case Summaries”1 of the LA Superior Court still carries
reference to matter of Samaan v Zernik (SC087400), moreover, a “Case
Conference” is listed there as a “Future Proceeding” on September 23, 2009. 2,3

You have continuously refused to certify the case as an Action of the Superior Court
of California, refused to certify Judge Terry Friedman as duly assigned Presiding
Judge (and there never was an Assignment Order on file either), and refused to
certify the August 9, 2007 Judgment as a Judgment of the Superior Court of
California.

Additional credible evidence demonstrated that such matter was never a valid
effectual action of the Superior Court of California. The Grant Deeds issued by Att
David Pasternak on behalf of the court, likewise, were opined by decorated FBI
veteran, fraud expert James Wedick as “fraud”. 4 Likewise, period reports issued by

1
“Case Summaries” are published by the LA Superior Court with a disclaimer (see Footnote #2) stating that such are not court
records, and should not be relied upon. In parallel, the LA Superior Court denies for the past quarter century public access to the
Registers of Actions – which are public records by law (see Footnote #3). Therefore, the “Case Summaries”, which should not be
relied upon, are the only non-record available to the public.

Copy of the case summary of Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) can be viewed at:

439 / 545
z Page 2/2 September 2, 2009

Att David Pasternak are primary evidence of the alleged racketeering predicated
acts of monetary transactions in property derived from specified unlawful activity. 5
There simply is no explanation within the realm of the law for the ongoing conduct of
the court and Att David Pasternak.

For lack of better term, I refer to Samaan v Zernik (SC087400), and other similar
cases, such as Galdjie v Darwish (SC052737), 6 as the “Enterprise Track” of the
LA Superior Court. Upon review by a competent court of jurisdiction, such cases
surely would be deemed racketeering pursuant to RICO - Racketeer Influenced
and Corrupt Organizations Act 18 USC §1961-8.

Additional cases, which carry substantial public policy interest, and are likely be
designated “Enterprise Track”, where I could not make final determination as a
result of denial of access to records, 7 included:

a) Sturgeon v LA County (BC351286)

Under such caption the court purported to review the question of payments to
judges that were ruled “not permitted” by the California Court of Appeals, and
were labeled by media “bribes”.

Although it remains unclear whether the case as a whole is “Enterprise Track”


case, surely what is represented as judgments by Justice Richman were false
and deliberately misleading records, as detailed in the motion for Mistrial which I
filed in court.8

b) Marina v LA County (BS109420)

Under such caption, the court purported to review the question of land development
in the Marina area. Although it remains unclear whether the case as a whole is
“Enterprise Track” case, surely what was represented as March 4, 2009 Judgment
for the jailing of Att Richard Fine was false and deliberately misleading record, as
detailed in letter of meet and confer sent to attorneys for the court and for the
sheriff.9

As you know, I am pressing for investigation of Samaan v Zernik, given the


extraordinary public policy interests inherent in it:

a) Relative to alleged racketeering by Sandor Samuels and Countrywide


Financial Corporation (CFC), as the underlying context for the current
financial crisis, still never addressed after the merger with Bank of America
Corporation (BAC).

Imprisoned Persons), as a result. It calls for new assessment of the reasons
for their false convictions and false sentencing by judges like Jacqueline
Connor, an aspect of the scandal that was entirely ignored in the official
investigation (1998-2000), which placed the blame entirely on the LAPD.

d) Relative to the position of LA County, as described by FBI: “The epicenter of


the epidemic of real estate and mortgage fraud”.

e) Relative to the roles of national and international law firms such as Bryan

1) Demand to remove any reference to Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) from LA


Superior Court’s “Case Summaries” online;
2) Demand to ensure that no Deputy Clerk is present in purported Case

Request for protection from the racketeering Countrywide and LA
Superior Court

Date: Mon, 09 Feb 2009 16:28:17 -0800


To: grundfest@stanford.edu
From: joseph zernik <jz12345@earthlink.net>
Subject: Request for protection from the racketeering Countrywide and LA Superior
Court

Prof Grundfest:

We talked briefly by phone at the end of last week. I am following up with an email
per your request.
I was victim of fraud by Countrywide, the first time I heard the name was December
2006. But by January 2007 I submitted a complaint of about 100 page to the LA FBI
regarding fraud by Countrywide against US gov.
By March 2007 I produced a rough estimate of hundreds of billions of liability. The
FBI told me not to send anything anymore. I also filed at that time complaints with
Thrift and Trade Commission, and my experience can tell a lot about what happened
in Countrywide. But the FBI refuses to investigate, since it would inevitably lead to
the corrupt judges.

In parallel, a campaign of unstoppable harassment started. No agency local or


federal would defend me, and Countrywide and the court go on with their
racketeering as if there was no sub prime crisis at all. It included the taking of my
home with no compensation (NOT A FORECLOSURE as the FBI falsely stated, I
never missed a payment, it was simply racketeering), gag orders, and just plain
harassment. All done openly, in complete violation of the law.

Strangest of all is the conduct of BOA Tim Mayopoulos. As I mentioned to you by


phone - the only explanation I find for it is some guarantees that are outside that
which is allowed by law. But that would not be surprising either.

In the meanwhile in abusive and retaliatory court actions, CFC refers to BOA as its
"new affiliate".

444 / 545
I would try to call you, and hope you could help.

Part of the problem is that I also figured out the fraud on a massive scale in the
computers of the court here.
The FBI knows it all, but wont do a thing. Senator Feinstein and Congresswoman
Watson issued an inquiry for me last year. The response of FBI and USDOJ was
fraudulent.

Request for protection from the racketeering Countrywide and LA

To: grundfest@stanford.edu
From: joseph zernik <jz12345@earthlink.net>
Subject: Request for protection from the racketeering Countrywide and LA Superior
Court

Prof Grundfest:

I realize that you may be one of the few who can read and comment on my proposal
last year to the judiciary committees -urgently needed regulation of computers at the
courts. They asked me for a one page proposal, so it is a bit skimpy, but the idea is
clear, in believe.
http://inproperinla.com/.0Heading-140-conclusions-concerns-proposal-computers-&-
courts.pdf

Otherwise, I am sure you can easily figure out the massive fraud in the Register of
actions. They created a system where some proceedings that in open court appear
real, are actually off the record, and not adjudicated in the register.
The whole system that they elaborately built here, is distinctly medieval in intent and
outcome.

And the result is the abundance of medieval style frauds by the court on the litigants -
summons frauds, judgement frauds, etc.
It is fully coordinated with the court of appeal 2nd district, and I have substantial data
on them too. And the LA District court is fed y judges from the LA Sup Ct, so no
wonder they are similar.
I can eve show the frauds perpetrated on Pacer in the USDCLA.

But pacer overall is ok, it has some deficiencies.

The minute orders of the LA SUP Ct are another major area of fraud. They
developed a system that t a judge may make a ruling or order in open court ,
outrageous as it may be. Then if the judge secretly voids it on the computer, with no
notice to the parties, it is ok. I know it sound so infantile that it cannot be true. But if
you look at the record that I sent you, all the minute orders with 00/00/00 for date of
445 / 545
entry are voided.

But no attorney or litigant ever sees these records.

Evidence for Enterprise Track at the LA Superior Court

Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2009 10:46:27 -0800


To: grundfest@stanford.edu
From: joseph zernik <jz12345@earthlink.net>
Subject: Evidence for Enterprise Track vs True Court Track for procession cases in
LA Superior Court.

Prof Grundfest:

I initiated a web-based petition for the appointment of a Special Counsel to


investigate and prosecute the denial of access to the public records of the LA
Superior Court in the last quarter century. That was the essence of my request to the
USDOJ last summer, denied by false claims that I was complaining about
"foreclosure procedures".

I believe that the USDOJ cannot rely in this matter on the FBI, but a unit from Dept of
Treasury or the department that was involved in seizing computers in failed banks
could accomplish the basic task overnight.

It is a cheap, short-term, cost effective action, with minimal intervention, relative to


the impact it can have.

Separately - I finally managed to located the defendant in another court case that
appears like a cookie cutter copy of my case. With that I confirmed I believe that
particular type of "Enterprise Track". Although I originally discussed only two tracks, it
is obvious now that it is in reality multiples tracks... for example - cases of LA
COUNTY are a track on its own.

The Enterprise Track are cases that are not at all appearing on the Index of All
Cases, and are considered by the Judiciary as not bound by U.S. of Ca law, and are
basically looted.

Admission to the Track is tricky, requires compliance with ALL requirements below:
1) Must not have any valid record of a pleading
2) Must not have any valid record of any dispositive action
3) Must not have any valid record of an effectual entered judgment
4) Must not have any valid record of an effectual entered appealable order
5) Must not have any valid record of an assignment order
6) Must not have any valid record of dispositive action on assignment and jurisdiction
(Peremptory Challenge, disqualifications for a cause)
7) Must not have any valid record of required conferences (initial, trial setting, pretrial,
446 / 545
post-trial)
8) Must not have any valid record of monetary transactions that establish a contract
for court services between the parties and the court.

And yet, I have 2-3 cases that qualify!

I would be grateful if you would agree to discuss such matters by phone or meet.
There are hardly any people qualified to discuss these issues, and practicing
attorneys stay away from any such issue. Furthermore, I find that most practicing
attorneys are not inclined to understand or find any significance to issues related to
administration of the courts.

I am confident of my findings, since all my findings on non-computerized records


were confirmed. Furthermore, the death threats I received were the best confirmation
of all. One was directly related to Countrywide, the other one to the court.

Joseph Zernik.

NOW, THAT DETENTIONS AT GUANTANAMO BAY ARE COMING TO AN


447 / 545
END, it is time to apply the same standards at home - here - in L.A., where the
number of those who are falsely imprisoned is estimated at 10,000 - those who were
never released in the past decade in disregard of the Rampart scandal investigations
(98-00) and successive review panel reports that followed. The blight of government
in L.A. County, California, the most populous in the U.S., is visible also in large scale
abuses of the civil rights of all the 10 millions who live here; in an ineffective U.S.-
appointed Overseer for civil rights, and well documented corruption of the justice
system. Such lawlessness was tolerated by the U.S. Government and its Justice
Department for decades -- with a price - since the sub-prime crisis - was brewed at
L.A.-based Countrywide. And yet, in the past year the FBI is engaged, again, in a
deliberately investigation, while the evidence is clear that regardless of the enormous
bailout, Countrywide is as far from compliance as ever before. And in the meanwhile
- the wave of foreclosures has turned into looting of homeowners in court across the
U.S., where the role of Countrywide was again, fully documented. In LA County it is
coupled with widespread corruption of the courts on a scale unheard of elsewhere in
the U.S.
.
These are problems that must be addressed by the U.S. government. We call upon
President Obama to appoint a SPECIAL COUNSEL TO RESTORE THE PUBLIC'S
RIGHT OF ACCESS TO THE PUBLIC'S RECORDS AT THE COURTS. It is a
minimal gesture, demonstrating his administration's stand on "equal protection", and
civil rights at home.
.
We call upon human rights organizations everywhere to study conditions prevailing
in L.A. and to send observers here to examine the conduct of both local and U.S.
agencies during the ongoing crisis. Such organizations ought to do so -- for their own
benefit. Because the impact of the failure of government to govern, here, is now felt
world-wide. Here such observers will also be able to study forms of corruption and
abuse that are yet to be conceived in most other places.
.
The restoration of public access to the public's records at the courts will empower the
public at large and also civil rights organizations, it is a key measure for restoration of
the integrity of the courts. It will allow the public to review the track records of the
judges, and it will also allow effective use of large scale writs of habeas corpus to
release those who are falsely imprisoned. The office of Overseer appeared to be
handicapped by lack of access, and will therefore benefit from such measure as well.
And FBI in LA may become more focused, free of distraction by the preoccupation of
how to conduct an investigation against Countrywide, without finding any wrongs at
the court.
.
In Nixon v. Warner Communications, Inc., 435 U.S. 589 (1978), the U.S. Supreme
Court affirmed "the common-law right of access to judicial records" otherwise
referred to as "the common-law right to inspect and copy judicial records". And
yet, for the past quarter century, the LA Courts have declared (but never published) a
rule that their quintessential records were "privileged - for the Courts only", in
entire disregard of the law.
.
Where did the courts find the authority to impose such a "privileged" state on the
public's records held by the court for safekeeping? It was never spelled out, because
there wasn't, there isn't, and there never will be a just reason for an honest court to
conceal the public's records from the public.
.
IT IS THE WISDOM OF GENERATIONS - JUSTICE SEEN IS JUSTICE DONE -
AND IT IS ALSO THE LAW!

1) In doubt and need to review some original records to support the claims
listed above?
448 / 545
a) View - May 1, 2001, PBS Transcript with estimates of the number of falsely
imprisoned people in LA.
.
b) View - The 2006 Blue Ribbon Review report.
The report details the refusal of police, prosecutors, and judges, to allow
the FIPs to be released.
.
c) View - Sustain - a Corrupt Case Management System at the LA Superior Court-
. routinely generates false and deliberately misleading litigation records.
.
d) View - August 2008, email note from James Wedick - a veteran FBI agent, to
Zernik.
Wedick, decorated by U.S. Congress, FBI Director, and U.S. Attorney General,
explains that the FBI, which for two years is refusing to investigate complaints of real
estate fraud by Countrywide and judges of the LA Superior Court, would not assist
Zernik in recovering his possession, unless Zernik can come up with a complaint that
avoids mention of the judge involved in the matter...
First complaint regarding fraud by Countrywide, in particular the CFC Legal
Department, against Zernik and against the U.S. government, were filed in January
2007. By March 2007, FBI was advised that rough calculations show that the liability
to U.S. government by Countrywide may end up in the hundreds of billions. At that
time, FBI instructed Zernik not to submit any more papers.
e) View - July Sept 2008, Correspondence between senior officers of the U.S.
Dept of Justice and congress.
Correspondence between the Honorable Senator Diane Feinstein, the Honorable
Congresswoman Diane Watson, Director of the U.S. Department of Justice, and
Assistant Director of the FBI, explaining their refusal to investigate. Upon review,
such responses may be deemed false and deliberately misleading, since the claim of
lack of "federal investigational jurisdiction" contradicts statements to the press by
the FBI at the same period. And Mr Melson's claim of "foreclosure" and "improper
fines" is an entirely made up, groundless, derogatory statement.
Such statements were made to explain the denial over two-year period to initiate an
investigation against Countrywide, in a case that most likely, upon review, has
sufficient evidence for indictments on claims of racketeering, involving top officers of
Countrywide such as Sandor Samuels - former Chief Legal Officer.
At the same time, FBI intensive investigation, for over a year now, seems to be
without any results that are news worthy. The chances of any major discovery by the
FBI from such investigation are most likely getting slimmer by the day.
f) View- Oct 11, 2008, ruling of California Court of Appeal regarding payments
that were "not permissible".
Oct 15,2008, broadcast by KNBC, stating that the "not permissible" payment
generated bias in the courts.
Mr Melson, Director of the U.S. Department of Justice, also seems to doubt Zernik's
claims that the LA Superior Court runs an Enterprise Track in parallel to the Court
Track. However, since then, Zernik identified additional cases that support his claims,
and the California Court of Appeal issued a ruling that in fact indicated the existence
of yet another track - The LA County Track.

Log Of FOIA Responses From Federal Trade Commission
Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2009 14:31:54 -0800
To: grundfest@stanford.edu
From: joseph zernik <jz12345@earthlink.net>
Subject: Record that you may find of interest- LOG OF FOIA FROM FEDERAL
TRADE COMMISSION 2007

Feb 12, 2009

Prof Grundfest:

I thought you would be interested in the following record:

A. FALSE AND MISLEADING FTC-FOIA- response log


In itself it is very simple - log of Federal Trade Commission FOIA responses, listing
my name as someone who made a request for a countrywide home loan record, and
whose request was granted in full.
http://inproperinla.com/.0Heading-146-otc-foia-s.pdf

However, I consider it of interest because it is a false and deliberately misleading


record, the last piece in a series of frauds by the Federal Trade Commission, where
the agency was colluding with Countywide in frauds against me, instead of protecting
me, which is their mission.

There was some of it also n Thrift, but my impression with Thrift was that they
conduct a bona fide investigation. What was corrupt in Thrift is the information they
released from the investigation. and also that several months later somebody in thrift
adulterated the investigation results.

But in Trade Commission it was much worse:


Outline of the conduct of Trade Commission:
a) Impossible to get through by phone.
b) When I figured out the phone number of the Director, secretary tried for a while to mislead
me that it
was the wrong agency.
c) Then they tried to mislead me that they lost the complaint that was generated by Thrift
Supervision,
but Federal Reserve told me it was a laughable story.
d) Then they tried to claim that they did not have jurisdiction
e) Then they simply claimed that they did not have the duty to investigate every case, and they
decided
not to investigate this one.
f) Then I filed FOIA
g) Then they would not give me anything in a timely manner.
h) Then I filed complaint with Inspector General.
i) Then I got a few pages, but they were marked as edited, not redacted.
j) I could not even get a copy of my own complaint, to established that they really logged it.
450 / 545
The record here states that my request was Granted in Full.

B. SHAM LITIGATION BY COUNTRYWIDE AND BOA GOES ON AT LA SUPCT


The reason I would like to talk with you, is that I am still where I was at that time,
trying to hide, while being persecuted by Countryside and now BOA. On February
17, 2009 they will have again a hearing for sanctions and OSC against me, and for
all I know may decide to jail me. But the whole thing is racketeering:
o The judge does not have an assignment order,.

o The attorneys are not authorized by BOA, and

o The case, is not recognized by the LA Superior Court as a True


Case

o Countrywide is not a real party- but a Non-Party, but the court will
decide on the day what to call them.

o The order that I purportedly violated is a protective order by Judge


Connor from July 23, 2007, I never saw it, since it does not exist.
But that is no problem'

o The hearing on Feb 17,2009, is based on the notion that BOA is a


new affiliate of CFC, and therefore the non-existent order by Judge
Connor of July 23, 2007, which was created off the record , off the
calendar is in effect and prohibits me from any communication with
any BOA employee - while I hold BOA deposit accounts. Just as a
reference I am also providing the outside counsel manual of
BOA that is now valid;
http://inproperinla.com/08-12-11-boa-outside-counsel-procedures-s.pdf
That was my problem with Judge Connor too--- you cannot even call it fraud,
because there is never any reliance, I never believe a word any of them said, it is just
that the judges act like thugs, and have the ability to take my home issue fraudulent
grant deed on it, and nobody in California, or maybe the whole united states would
dare say anything - because they are judges.
That false deference to corrupt judges is mind boggling. And it goes all the way to the
judiciary committees.
Any suggestion would be appreciated. I hope I do not have to find shelter in a foreign
embassy in the U.S. from violations of my civil rights under the color of law of
California, after the FBI assistant Director and Director of USDOJ refused to provide
me protection, and provided congress with fraudulent responses why they do so.
My true sin is that I figured it all out about Countrywide in January 2007, as an
orthodontist with no background in nothing. And worse yet - that I exposed the Play
Pretend legal theory that is the basis of the whole State of California Court system -
since the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, Ronald George, is most likely the
inventor of this infantile legal system, which came into being around 1985.
My prediction is that many of the judges, possibly even Ronald George will escape
when the records are opened. And after that there would be a need for truth and
reconciliation committees, such as was done in South Africa.

C. Organized Crime:
My case shows the whole structure of the organized crime in Southern California in a
nut shell:

a, In the criminal courts - bribes go routinely.


I believe Samaan's husband, Jae Arre - who is the "Brains" bribed a judge, most
likely Connor, after he stole the benefits of Skyline Funding.

b. The police racketeer in drug trading, but the judges get out of the way
anybody who knows anything or is a problem,
451 / 545
with long term sentence. That is why they cannot let them out. The real reason they
are in prison is that they were in the way of the police and the judge. I myself believe
I was target for framing a couple of times in recent months... that is the way to get rid
of me.

b, Civil Courts- Play Pretend Galdjie v Darwish


Most likely it was Connor herself who at that time explained to him how to bring a
real estate fraud case to make it most beneficial. Specific performance. The reason I
say that is that last week I finally found the defendants in the other case of specific
performance that I was looking for a long time. A not very intelligent couple of 65,
they lost a 6-unit rental property. several of the same people were involved, and it
included a chain of judges, like in my case, and none with an assignment order, like
in my case, and strange judgment like in my case, by court.
Here are the registers of actions and the minute orders. and you see that there is o
assignment whatsoever.
These are also cases of Statute of frauds fraud, and the demurrer was secretly
voided. You can see it in the file # 2 electronic minute order, d-v-d sustain. page #4,
which is page #2 (last) of the demurrer: Minutes Entered 00/00/00 County Clerk. In
my case there are many more of these. But in paper court file they have a valid date.

1) http://inproperinla.com/00-00-00-la-sup-ct-register-of-actions-case-history-g-v-d-
sustain-ocr.pdf
2) http://inproperinla.com/00-00-00-la-sup-ct-register-of-actions-case-history-d-v-d-
sustain-ocr.pdf

complete-ocr.pdf
4) http://inproperinla.com/00-00-00-la-sup-ct-minute-orders-electronic-g-v-d-
complete-ocr.pdf

I asked them why they had no jury trial. Because the secret record of the court is
really strange on that point. The jury trial was continued again and again for two
years. Then they all showed up for jury trial, and then the attorneys went to
chambers, and then there was no jury trial, and they ended up going in the afternoon
to the muni judge in Culver city, whose name is missing from the record, and none of
the attorneys in that procedure is listed, but they are the same as were before and
after, and they lost their property. And it started exactly like my case:
A convicted felon who did not qualify made an offer. Then could not get the loan,
then did not say anything, finally, after they gave him an extra 3 months! they
canceled escrow. A year later he sued, and they lost the property and more.

c. Court of Appeal- giving the blessing to the frauds


The outrageous issue in their case is that an appeal attorney fraudulently took them
through h an appeal - there was no valid judgment - how could they appeal ? And
the Appeal court made them lose,and made it into a published opinion!!!!
Galdjie v Darwish. They tried to do it to me too... they do not even have anymore on
the online docket a place to list the date of entry of judgment. But I realized that, and
also filed a series of motion that made it clear that the court of appeal was trying to
perpetrate a fraud on me. At the end I claimed it was a premature notice of appeal,
since it was never entered yet, but they claimed it was and entered judgement, and
dismissed the appeal for my refusal to file opening brief. But at the same time they
refused to allow me to see the records of the lower court.
The only major significance of the appeal was that the clerk of the lower court tried to
file a fraudulent record as Register of Actions, and I objected, and they in fact
accepted my objection. It means that nobody in LA county ever sees the true
register, and that the record with all the Play Pretend system is the TRUE
REGISTER PER COURT OF APPEAL.
d. Courts of Equity - and real etate frauds - the specialty of the courts

452 / 545
when I called this couple last Friday, a few years after the fact, they still did not have
a clue that they were victims of fraud by the court. They believed that the buyer, the
felon just lied in court, and was a good liar, and that their attorney had a surgery a
week or two before the trial so that she was not in good shape, and that maybe the
judge was a bit too young.... but they never even dreamed that all these people
ganged up on them to steal the equity they had in the property.
They really did not know much. But when I asked why they did not have a jury trial,
the lady knew the answer right away - that it was an equity court, and based on
English tradition of the equity court there is no right for a jury trial...
They was exactly the story that i got from my real estate attorney on the first time we
met after I retained him.
This cannot be something the convicted felons tell each other in jail. it is something
they learn when they bribe the judge in the criminal trial.
Even this fraud is medieval in nature.. And because of that in fact equity courts had
no jurisdiction on property, they could not change the title... it was only in personam
jurisdiction.

e. Countrywide and sub-prime perfect game- generating high volume real


estate litigations
No wonder that countrywide and the court are in mutual happiness.

f, The large law firms - Sheppard Mullin and Bryan Cave, LLP
The sent relatively young attorneys, but they were supervised by senior partner. The
attorney from Bryan Cave was 2 years out of UCLA when she started, and right
away they engage in racketeering as if that is what they learnt in law school. I
conclude that the senior partners in the big law firm are the "institutional memory" of
the specific procedures of the various corrupt judges.

g. The Officer of the Court. the Registrar. and the notary


After visiting the Registrar, it was much clearer to me the fraud Att Pasternak, friend
of Samuels did with his Notary, and I called and asked to see the journal. He called
back that he instructed security to apprehend me and escort me out if I try to enter
the building.

h. FBI and USDOJ


They are really the ones who decided to permit it in the last couple of decades. How
do they rationalize it?
I was told by a guy who should know that I am defined as "bad" guy, and the FBI is
doing its best to protect the corrupt judges.

i. Seeking a way to stop the disgrace of the U.S. legal system


If not for me as fellow citizen abused to the extreme by the corrupt california and U.S.
legal systems, then for saving any dignity of the system that may be salvaged. My
daughter is in Yale law school. I was teaching her growing up that the events that
coincided to generate the drafting of the U.S. Constitution are so statistically unreal -
a collection of enlightened and non-corrupt leaders, that it can be considered divine
intervention... At the end, Jefferson could not help himself when he saw a good deal
with the Louisiana Purchase, but other than that...
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, especially a phone call to Mr Mayopoulos.

Fax 704-602-5785
Phil Wortz

I also figured out the personal extension of Mr Mayopoulos, but I do not think it is
appropriate for you to do that.
453 / 545
But because of that, it is endless, it can go on for ever. And they already drove me
out of my own home - no security in my own residence, and took my property with no
compensation for private use, and issued on me 3 gag orders, and violated any
semblance of due process, it is really a disgrace...... And the U.S. sent experts to Iraq
to teach them court administration...
You may realize now why I consider the hiding of the books the key to the whole
corruption in LA County.. Without the books you can run fake litigations, you can
imprison fake prisoners, all medieval style.

I am urgently seeking help. And the fact that my petition is primarily targeting the
world outside the U.S. to help me get my basic civil rights protected inside the U.S.,
where I am a citizen, surely is making Jefferson, Madison and the rest of the Framer
roll in the graves.
Any suggestion would be helpful... I believe that one phone call from the SEC to MR
TIM MAYOPOLOUS COULD MAKE ME AN "EQUAL PROTECTION" CITIZEN
AGAIN. THE LAST TIME I TALKED BY PHONE WITH SEC ABOUT THIS WAS

09-02-13. Zernik to Grundsfest Request for an Opinion Memo


Feb 13 ,2009

Professor Joseph Grundsfest


William A. Franke Professor of Law and Business
Stanford Law School
Former Chairman
United States Stock Exchange Commission

Dear Prof. Grundsfest:

Thank you for taking the time to talk with me by phone last week. I am grateful for any help
that you would be willing to provide. Obviously, you have heard and read by now more than
enough to allow a person of your stature to figure out what is going on, or at least what is
sufficiently plausible to require follow up.
The issue is urgent, since the LA Superior Court set a date for a “hearing” on OSC Contempt
for February 17, 2009, based on false charges, and already in a previous such case Judge
Friedman threatened to jail me.
I enclosed a set of six independently written opinions for your consideration in both short and
long format, with references. At the end, as always, I am pressed in time and could not put in
place all the references, all of which are online at http://inproperinla.com/. The allegations
in #2-6 are of serious violations of my rights in a sham litigation by two large corporations
engaging in perversion of justice with no inhibitions. But review of that would be time
consuming. For the allegations in #1, relative to false response to legal subpoena, it is
sufficient to provide one or two references. Therefore it is the least time demanding for you to
review.
Regardless of your decision, I would be grateful for any speedy notice of your intentions in
this regard.
I also prepared a compilation of my previous complaints the SEC and failure to act upon them,
similar to what took place in FTC and Thrift, but I see review of that as a waste of your time.
I would be glad to provide it to Congressoinal committee of oversight jurisdiction in that
matter.
I am grateful for any help. Surely you recognize that I deliberately try to conduct this case in a
manner that provides public service, albeit neither by choice nor by design, so that the years
spent on seeking remedy to such abuse will not have been spent in vane.

Thanks again,

Joseph Zernik

Proposed Recommendations

1) Samaan v Zernik (SC087400): The February 8, 2007 Countrywide Subpoena


Production records2, combined with the records provided by Zernik, analyzing
Samaan’s loan applications of September 27, 20043,4 clearly amount to material
violations of the law, and raise the question of compliance with Sarbanes –Oxley Act
(2002) §307 by both CFC and BOA. The Chairman of the SEC will be orally notified by
this licensed member of the California State bar association pursuant to the code of
professional conduct, with a recommendation that BOA immediately stop any actions by
Bryan Cave, LLP, in Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) purportedly unauthorized by BOA to
begin with, pending filing of reasonable explanations by both former Chief Legal Officer
of CFC, Sandor Samuels, and current General Counsel of BOA Timothy Mayopoulos and
acceptance of such explanations by the Chairman of the SEC.

2) Samaan v Zernik (SC087400): The use of party designation ”Non Party” by


Countrywide for all the period from July 6, 20075 and to the February 17,2009
moving papers,6 is inconsistent with either the law or the practice of good counsel,
and support concerns raised regarding the overall nature of this matter, amounting
to obstruction of justice and material violations of the law. July 6, 2007 papers include
various issues of concern7 regarding attempts by a corporation to restrict speech by an
individual, but more than anything else, is the missing minute order in paper court file8,
the missing date for submission of moving papers for July 23, 2007 in the electronic court
file minute order9, and the notation “proceedings not recorded” in the register of
actions10. The hearing on July 23, 2007, followed a disqualification for a cause on July
12, 2007, which appears as if handled in a manner that was inconsistent with the law,
raising further questions regarding the proceedings. The outcome of the July 23, 2007 –
the Protective Order is nowhere to be found in the records, not even in moving papers by
Countrywide that were the basis for serious sanctions or finding of contempt for purported
violations of such order. Countrywide’s moving papers for January 13. 200911, and for
February 17, 200912, with no judge assignment listed on their face, and the failure to ever
present a valid Protective Order that Defendant Zernik is allegedly in violating of, and
numerous other obvious defects, surely are not reflection of the professional standards that
Bryan Cave , LLP would like to claim their own, Failure to identify an Assignment Order
for Judge Friedman in certified copies dated November 14, 2008 of either Register of
Actions13, or Minute Orders14, are matter for serious concerns and material wrong doing.
December 26, 2007 Minute Order by Judge Rosenberg15, denying Zernik’s request for and
Assignment Order, combined with its invalidation in the Electronic copy but not the paper
copy, make the matter inadequate for participation by a public corporation. Judge
Friedman’s refusal to file a statement on the records regarding his relationship with
Samuels and Countrywide, as well as his refusal to release any funds to Zernik from the
alleged sale of the property, with prejudice and a threat of sanctions, while the very same
order was again is invalidated, and numerous “waiver of notice” in court records, which
must never be part of corporate practice, and the failure of BOA’s General Counsel to
authorize Bryan Cave, LLP for more than half a year, even after demands by Dr Zernik,
retaliation against Dr Zernik for communication with General Counsel on this matter to
protect his rights, and what appears as an attempt to obstruct throughout this dispute,

456 / 545
z Page 3/4 February 13, 2009

clearly contradicts the stated standards in the Outside Counsel Procedures manual of
BOA16, combined make the conduct by Bryan Cave, LLP on behalf of BOA.
Unauthorized as it may be, but obviously done with a nod from the General Counsel, it is
a material violation of the law, and raises the question of compliance with Sarbanes –
Oxley (2002) §307. The Chairman of the SEC will be orally notified by this licensed
member of the California State bar association pursuant to the code of professional
conduct.

3) Samaan v Zernik (SC087400): The records related to the appointment of a Court


Officer who is the “Receiver”, starting with Missing Assignment Order of Judge Segal,
denial of Zernik’s ex parte application on October 10,2 007 to be noticed of such order,
November 5, 2007 minute order that has been invalidated, and motion that included false
record for a judgment, combined with repeat inclusion of a false record for a judgment on
November 9, and transcript of November 9, where Att Keshavarzi stated in open court
rejection of the judgment may these motion and order dubious. The appointment order
17
itself, showing no section of the code ahs the legal foundation for the appointment,
shooing no judgment, and no contract, make the case Minute order , Appointment of
Receiver, culminating in dubious grant deeds require immediate investigation by the
Section on Public Integrity of the Justice Department in Washington DC, ebdubg wutg the
refusal to allow Zernik to inspect the journal of the Notary Public..

4) Zernik v Connor (2:2008cv01550) The failure to adjudicate pending matters in the


past half year, combined with issues raised by plaintiff in litigation records as well as the
extensive set of rejected filings18, are worthy of review by the Section on Public Integrity
of the Justice Department in Washington, DC.

5) General: The proposed appointment of a Special Counsel per 28 CFR §600 to


enforce public access to the public records is inadequate as presented by Zernik an
in pro se litigant in the petition,. However, the facts and the claims presented are
compelling, and present a request that is a moderate measure relative to the scope of
the violations some merely allegations19, but others very substantially supported by
the evidence.20,2122

6) General: Zernik’s proposal pursuant to the Rule Making Enabling Act 28 USC
§2071–207723 - in its current format is useless, but the core issue is of interest not
only for the courts, but in a range of other public and private organization. We may
be able to put together a team here at the Stanford Center for Law and Business that
would be able to advance a range of proposals including such that would be submitted
to the Chairmen of the House and Senate Judiciary Committees, and Chairs of
Subcommittees on Administration of the Courts.

Thanks, and defining key issues.

To: Joe Grundfest <joelaw@law.stanford.edu>


From: joseph zernik <jz12345@earthlink.net>
Subject: Re: Request for an opinion memo and proposed opinion memos

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!


I appreciate your generosity!

I would be grateful if you could give me her name and address, I would like to mail
her some evidence of criminal conduct at countrywide, under the guidance of the
Legal Department. But only if you think that there is really interest in enforcement
there. I have seen enough agencies that are not interested in any enforcement. I
assume you noticed the loan applications. The data was all false, but that you can
say is the applicant , but the double date received? and in Meet and Confer they
claimed that they have no clue how it happened.

Well the way it happened is like this:

In case you are interested in my insights, as someone who was totally new to the
field two years ago and had to learn fast:

1) Digital signatures:
Some say that Japan loses every year some fraction of its potential growth as a
result of lack of leadership to move its banking industry out of the use of the carved
seals for account identification. Similarly, I suggest, that the U.S. loses every year
some of its potential growth as a result of lack of leadership in moving at least certain
sectors into routine use of digital signatures. It requires long term planning, realistic
targets, and education. It is my understanding that to a degree the problem is with
the E-sign law of 2002. If that is indeed the case, then California should possibly take
a leadership position.

2) The practice of law


If Enron was primarily about accounting, then Countrywide is primarily about the
practice of law. At the end nobody even knows the name of countrywide CFO. In
Enron, nobody knew the name of the General Counsel. If in Enron the key concept
was deregulation, in Countrywide the key concept was: Streamlining. Samuels can
streamline the LA Superior court, Thrift regulator, FTC, anybody.

3) Why LA is the Capital of Fraud (per FBI)


The court in LA created an environment that is not only fraud permissive, but fraud
coercive. If you are in the real estate business, as an attorney, realtor, broker, etc.
460 / 545
you must never be caught on the wrong side of a dispute, or you may lose you
license. The clearest example was and is Att Richard Fine. He was the first who
antagonized the court on taking money from the county that is not permitted
($46,000 per judge per year for the last 10 years, and some years the county never
lost a case in trial by court). He lost his license on claims of "moral turpitude" (he is
about 70 yo, and a former special prosecutor), where the Moral Turpitude was filing
claims against judges. Since then, the Cal Court of Appeal ruled the same way - that
the judges of LA are not allowed to take supplements for their pay from the county..
But Att Fine is still debarred.
In my case: MY realtor started out relatively honest. Oct 18,19,20,2004 he
reported to me that he caught Samaan in wire fraud - she was impersonating
her loan broker all along. But by Oct 21, 2004, he was already on the other
side. Probably threatened. And in litigation, was not willing to provide any
declaration on the simplest facts.

4) UETA enforcement
None of the professionals kept any reasonable authentication of transmission, which
is done I believe deliberately to allow room for manipulation later on. The end result
was that there were 6 different variants of the contract in the subpoena productions,
and I consider none of them authentic. In particular not the one that came from
Countrywide. It was clearly the product of fax/wire fraud. For two years
Countrywide, and now BOA refuse to answer regarding the two records that are the
crux of the fraud and came from them. But if you look at Samaan’s loan file, you
realize that much of the loan file was also the product of the same type of wire/fax
fraud. it showed records with dates that had no bearing on when they really arrived in
countrywide.

1) CFC, BAC fail to report pursuant to Sarbanes Oxley Act (2002).

Date: Thu, 19 Feb 2009 06:29:01 -0800


To: "Joseph Grundfest" <grundfest@stanford.edu>, "Erwin Chemerinsky"

From: joseph zernik <jz12345@earthlink.net>
Subject: An open letter to Prof Erwin Chemerinsky, Dean of Irvine Law School,
University of California: A few questions for your acquaintance - Judge TERRY
FRIEDMAN

Feb 19, 2009

Professor Joseph Grundfest


William A. Franke Professor of Law and Business
Stanford Law School
Former Chairman
United States Stock Exchange Commission

Dear Prof Grundfest:

I am grateful for your expedient help. I request that you add this email note to the
request for investigation by the SEC.

I allege that evidence, a fraction of which you have already seen, demonstrates
failure to report to SEC, by both SANDOR SAMUELS, former chief legal officer at
Countrywide Financial Corporation (CFC) and by TIMOTHY MAYOPOULOS,
General Counsel of Bank of America (BOA) pursuant to Sarbanes Oxley 307.

I allege that evidence, a fraction of which you have already seen, demonstrates
conduct by CFC, BOA and others, against its own share holders, against the U.S.
government, against me - JOSEPH ZERNIK, an individual, and against the People
that amounts to violations of various designated federal laws, enumerated in 18 USC
1961, see also Giulliano v. Fulton, 399 F.3d 381, 388 (1st Cir. 2005).

I allege that the case encompasses evidence that meets all four elements: (1)
conduct (2) of an enterprise (3) through a pattern (4) of racketeering activity, per 18
462 / 545
USC 1962, see also Kenda Corp. v. Pot OGold Money Leagues, Inc., 329 F.3d
216, 233 (1st Cir. 2003). Furthermore, I claim that the evidence would also be
deemed upon review to meet additional analysis: an enterprise that is marked by
association and control; a pattern that requires a showing of continuity --continuous
and related behavior that amounts to, or poses a threat of, continued criminal
violations; and racketeering activity that involves the violation of designated federal
laws as noted above.

Therefore, I allege that the case holds sufficient evidence for indictment per
Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act 18 USC 19618.

I allege that CFC, a racketeer-influenced and corrupt organization, was led by


ANGELO MOZILO and SANDOR SAMUELS, engaged in financial crimes and
willfully defrauded its own share holders, in a scheme that at the end led to a loss in
capitalization value amounting to ~$100 billions, and also led to much larger liabilities
to the U.S. Government - amounting to hundreds of billions of dollars. The outcome
of such conduct by ANGELO MOZILO and SANDOR SAMUELS led tens of
thousands of American families to lose their homes, it will shackle this nation both at
home and abroad in the foreseeable future.

Again, I am grateful for your generosity and willingness to look at the matters of an
individual. Your actions are justified, because what is at stake is any semblance of
integrity of U.S. financial institutions, financial markets, and the courts. In particular -
any semblance of integrity in investigation of the Sub-Prime Lending Crisis and the
Bailout. All of these are critical at a time when the dollar is at a precarious
predicament, and after such conduct inflicted substantial damages on both investors
and working people world-wide.

In addition, your actions are also critical for securing the release of some 10,000
people who are falsely imprisoned in Los Angeles, by the same Court, since they
were never released in the aftermath of the Rampart scandal. What is at stake there
- is any semblance of compliance by the U.S. government with International Law
such as the Human Rights Conventions (1967), which incorporated the Universal
Declaration of Human Rights (1948). All of these are critical at a time when U.S.
respect for Dignity of Man is questioned world-wide, even after the prudent decision
by President Barack Obama to stop the detentions at Guantanamo Bay.

Indeed, one cannot expect the a U.S. government to act with Integrity or to respect
Human Dignity at home, when it acts otherwise off shore. And likewise, one cannot
expect U.S. government to act with Integrity on some parts of the Law, while it
willfully disregards others.

While I understand that SEC policy is to keep its investigations confidential, I request
that the SEC notify me as soon as possible, whether, and when I would be notified
regarding response to my personal request entered herein:
My request, as an individual, to the SEC is to instruct CFC and BOA to
immediately stop all actions in Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) at the Los
Angeles Superior Court, alleged as racketeering, pending review by the SEC of
their conduct in this matter.
Sincerely,

Joseph Zernik

P.S. Beyond the email note to Prof. E. Chemerinsky, below, I request that the SEC
also incorporate into my complaint the following three attempts to describe the affair
in its entirety:

2) An open letter to Prof Chemerinsky, Founding Dean, Irvine Law


School, University of California, in re: Alleged Racketeering by
Judge Terry Friedman.

Feb 19, 2009

Prof Erwin Chemerinsky


Dean, Irvine Law School
University of California

Dear Erwin:

I am grateful for your prompt responses, and for taking the time to correspond with
me. I would like to make one final request: Since Judge TERRY FRIEDMAN is your
acquaintance, as a personal favor, please ask him to explain to you how exactly he
perceives his conduct in Samaan v Zernik (SC087400), which he holds for over a
year, and whether he shares my opinion that his conduct, upon review by a
competent court, would be found in violation of U.S. Penal Code, per RICO 18 USC
1961-8.

In Samaan v Zernik (SC087400):

a) The Clerk of the Court, Mr JOHN CLARKE, would not certify Samaan v Zernik
(SC087400) as a case of the superior court, neither as non-case
b) Judge TERRY FRIEDMAN like some other 10 judges that acted in the case
holds no assignment order
c) The Clerk of the Court, Mr JOHN CLARKE, would not certify Judge TERRY
FRIEDMAN as the duly assigned judge, holding jurisdiction in this case, neither as
not assigned, and holding no jurisdiction in this case.
d) Plaintiff NIVIE SAMAAN never paid filing fees for the original complaint
(October 25. 2005), but the complaint was never dismissed as required law.
e) All payments in the case instead of being registered in court records as "Filing
Fees", "Motion Setting Fees", etc. are listed as "Journal Entries".
f) All pleading and dispositive motions are listed in a manner that is invalid.
g) Judge JACQUELINE CONNOR (best remembered for her performance in
derailing the first Rampart trial) who instigated the case, allowed neither me nor my
counsel any access to court file, and also denied any notice or service of court
orders, ruling, judgments
h) Even today I am denied by Clerk of the Court, Mr JOHN CLARKE, my rights to
access court records to inspect and to copy per Common Law Rights affirmed in
Nixon v Warner Communications, Inc.
g) Where the Clerk of the Court, Mr JOHN CLARKE, refuses to certify a
Judgment by Court per Cal Code Civ Proc 437c, rendered by Judge Connor, as
464 / 545
either entered and effectual, alternatively - as not entered and ineffectual.
h) My home was taken with no judgment for private use with no compensation
j) Att DAVID PASTERNAK was purportedly appointed as "Receiver" for
execution of judgment for specific performance, in an order where no mention is
made of any section of the code, where no judgement is referenced or incorporated,
neither is any real property purchase contract
k) Where att DAVID PASTERNAK issued on behalf of the court two grant deeds
on my residence, both of which were opined by decorated veteran FBI agent JAMES
WEDICK as "frauds being committed...".
l) I appeared before Judge TERRY FRIEDMAN on January 30, 2008, later than
30 days from the date of the purported sale and asked for distribution of my
purported proceeds from the purported sale. Judge TERRY FRIEDMAN denied my
request with no explanation at all, with prejudice and with an explicit threat of
sanctions if I ever bring such request again. Then he went ahead and secretly listed
the proceedings as "Disposed" in court file, with no notice to parties.
m) Where SANDOR SAMUELS, former chief legal officer of Countrywide is listed
as a person of interest, and filed a verified statement describing his personal
relationship with Judge TERRY FRIEDMAN, but the latter denied any such
relationship and continues to refuse to disqualify,and also continues to refuse to file a
statement on the record per Cal Code Jud Eth Canon 3E(2) regarding such
relationship and any financial benefits to him or his family.
n) Where Judge TERRY FRIEDMAN failed to respond to disqualification for a
cause (March 12, 2008 - the 3rd such disqualification) per Cal Code Civ Proc 170.3
in an adequate manner, and then secretly registered his response to disqualification
as "Disposed".
m) Countrywide (with whom I had no business at all, but plaintiff's husband - a
felon - was a "loan originator") issued subpoena records of hundreds of false and
deliberately misleading banking records.
n) Where a key records by countrywide, an Underwriting Letter was opined by
nationally acclaimed fraud expert Robert Meister as false.
o) Where countrywide is allowed to appear for almost two years, represented by
BRYAN CAVE, LLP, and designates itself "Non Party".
p) Where the court designates Countrywide "Defendant", "Plaintiff", "Cross
Defendant", "Intervenor", "Real Party in Interest"... interchangeably, depending
on the date...
q) Where BRYAN CAVE, LLP, continued appearing for countrywide after the
July1,2008 takeover by BANK OF AMERICA, but to this date has failed to file
adequate corporate disclosure.
r) Where office of TIM MAYOPOULOS, General Counsel of BANK OF AMERICA
CORPORATION repeatedly informed me that BRYAN CAVE, LLP, is not authorized
to appear in their name in court.
s) Where the office of TIM MAYOPOULOS, routinely collaborate with BRYAN
CAVE, LLP, in support of their appearances in court as representing Countrywide.
u) Where neither BANK OF AMERICAN, nor COUNTRYWIDE never reported the
litigation in Samaan v Zernik, including any reporting per Sarbanes Oxley 307,
v) Where the BEVERLY HILLS POLICE DEPARTMENT has refused to even
accept a report of a crime, needless to say investigate.
w) Where the office of California Attorney General JERRY BROWN, now running
for governor, after extensive review issued an opinion that such is a "private
matter", where the office of the Attorney General should not get involved.
w) Where the FBI is refusing to investigate for over two years, a complaint
claiming violations per RICO 18 USC 1961-8 and ANGELO MOZILO and SANDOR
SAMUELS are directly involved, while publicly stating that they are engaging in an
intensive investigation of the sub-prime lenders
y) Where FBI refuses to investigate the case for over two years claims of RICO 18
USC 1961-8 against judges of the LA Superior Court, while publicly stating, as
recently as December 10, 2008, in New York:

465 / 545
"FBI will pursue all allegations of judicial corruption vigorously, as public
corruption violations are among the most serious of all criminal conduct and
can tear at the fabric of a democratic society,"
z) Where assistant director of FBI, KENNETH KAISER, in response to
congressional inquiries by the Honorable DIANNE WATSON and the Honorable
DIANNE FEINSTEIN, explained the FBI refusal to investigate as based on lack of
"federal investigational jurisdiction".
aa) Where director general of U.S. Department of Justice, KENNETH MELSON, in
response to congressional inquiries by the Honorable Diane Watson and the
Honorable Dianne Feinstein, explained the refusal to investigate by falsely claiming
that ZERNIK was complaining about "foreclosure procedures", in a case that
involved no foreclosure and no default at all.
bb) Where counsel for the Judiciary Committee and the Housing Committee of the
U.S. House of Representatives, ROBERT REED issued recommendation not to
review the case, citing concerns about "politization of the courts"
bb) Where Thrift Supervision provided false and deliberately misleading responses
as the purported outcome of official investigation, but in fact was parroting what was
fed to it by the presidential suit of Countrywide.
cc) Where Federal Trade Commission refused to investigate at all.
dd) Where three protagonists hold substantial honors due to their association with
the "House of Justice", "Bet Tzedek", possibly the most prominent Jewish charity in
Los Angeles: SANDOR SAMUELS - former President, DAVID PASTERNAK -
former president, and TERRY FRIEDMAN - former executive director.

1) Denial of access to court records at the LA Superior Court

Prof Grundfest:

FYI, I am also forwarding this to SEC as part of my complaint against BOA/CFC.

I would like to call you to hear your opinion about a central issue here - the denial of
467 / 545
access to court records that are "electronic court files". The LA Superior Court
adopted an unpublished Rule of Court around 1985, when it introduced the computer
system, Sustain, which I hold fraudulent. That rule says: "Sustain is privileged - for
the court only."
Sustain pertains to civil courts, but exactly the same takes place in the criminal courts
as well.

I am not sure if you noticed it in other writings, but at the same time, the court also
abandoned its published Rules of Court relative to judgment, notice of judgment,
entry of judgment, etc, and started relying on unpublished rules instead. The
published rules have not been updated on these critical issues ever since, and i hold
that to be the key to establishment of the "Enterprise Track" of the court.

I believe that such conditions are severe violation of International Law.

Joseph Zernik

RE: Message to the members of BOA Audit Committee;

Timely response requested by March 10, 2009, 5:00pm

Mr Barnet III, Mr Collins, General Franks, Mr Massey, Mr May, Admiral


Frueher:

I, victim of alleged frauds by CFC and BOA, am writing to each of you as an


individual member of the AUDIT COMMITTEE of CFC/BOA. Below I
describe only a small fraction of such frauds in simple lay-person terms. I
have notified BOA General Counsel Mr TIMOTHY MAYOPOULOS of such
468 / 545
alleged frauds against me several times in the past. I also notified Mr
KENNETH LEWIS and others at BOA/CFC. None responded, and the
frauds are allowed to continue, even today.

I request that you immediately take corrective actions. Please personally


respond, either at my home address: 2415 Saint George, LA CA 90027, or
my email address <jz12345@earthlink.net> no later than Monday, March 9,
2009, 5:00pm. At minimum I request acknowledgement of receipt of this
communications. Please also include a statement of your intended actions
in this regard, specifically regarding the six items below that I identify as
keys in CFC now CFC/BOA alleged collusion in fraud in ongoing litigation of
Samaan v Zernik at the LA Superior Court.

As described below, I first heard the name COUNTRYWIDE in December


2006. I had no business with the company whatsoever, but I found out that
at that time, the company was already involved in alleged fraud against me
for over two years! I fast grew to realize, still in December 2006, that what
happened to me was not the work of one employee, a bad apple, but a
reflection of the Legal Department at Countrywide, headed by SANDOR
SAMUELS, that I concluded already then was operating as a corrupt
organization. Such allegations appeared radical in January 2007, when I
submitted my first complaint to the FBI, but by January 2008 became
commonplace, when "recreated letters" were found in Pennsylvania, and in
March 2009, when U.S. Judge Jeff Bohm published his opinion on
Countrywide's legal practices. He found routine engagement in what must
amount upon review by a competent court to frauds against homeowners all
across the U.S. - based on a year long study by the United States Trustee,
Regardless of his decision no indictments were filed to this date, to the best
of my knowledge, against SANDOR SAMUELS, ANGELO MOZILO, or
anybody else at the Legal Department of Countrywide.

Instead, in an urgent attempt to stabilize collapsing financial markets, the


Bush administration chaperoned the take over of the CFC by BOA, which
was effective July 1, 2008. Obviously, such merger was undertaken by BOA
only with substantial inducements by the Bush administration, the scope of
which we will never know for sure, simply because much of it was not in
enumerated cash, but in provisions that may transform the framework of the
U.S. financial world as we know it today. After all, BOA took upon itself the
responsibility for a large entity that had large negative financial value,
tremendously negative goodwill, and very substantial criminal liabilities.

The tax payer, who will pay for all of this, could expect at least that BOA
would ensure that alleged criminal conduct at CFC would cease the moment
it became part of BOA. But at least in Los Angeles, California, such conduct
is continuing in full force today, in public, without even an attempt to conceal
it, under your watch. And the responses I received from the office of the
BOA General Counsel appeared not at all as the responses of a concerned
corporate citizen, who is now charged with responsibility for a major public
hazard. Instead, it appeared as the response of a corporation that holds
itself immune to any criminal charges, regardless of the conduct of CFC, its
own subsidiary. I would like to believe that such conduct is limited to Los
Angeles, where the local compounding factor is the LA Superior Court itself.
Listed below are key records of the alleged fraud by CFC/BOA against
JOSEPH ZERNIK in litigation of Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) at the LA
Superior Court:

1) Underwriting Letter misrepresented as a fax transmission of mid-


October 2004, from Countrywide, San Rafael to VICTOR PARKS, State

469 / 545
of Washington. [1] Introduced repeatedly in court. Most recently for a
motion noticed for November 2008. Alleged key fraud record.

2) Real Property Purchase Contract misrepresented as a fax


transmission of October 25, 2004, 5:03pm from VICTOR PARKS, State
of Washington, to Countrywide, San Rafael. [2] Introduced repeatedly in
court. Most recently for a motion noticed for November 2008. Alleged key
fraud record.

3) Set of a letter and declarations by CFC/ MARIA MCLAURIN, Branch


Manager, San Rafael, California. [3] Introduced repeatedly in court. Key
fraud record.

4) Subpoena Production of Countrywide in Samaan v Zernik. [4] About


400 pages, produced by the Legal Department a total of 5 times from
August 2006 to April 2007. Deemed fraud in its entirety - since it included
loan files that were recreated after the fact, and records that are the product
of wire/fax fraud and bear false and deliberately misleading fax header
imprints, when in fact there is nothing in this production that allows to
determine where and when such records appeared from. It was part of a
concerted effort by SAMAAN, McLAURIN and the Legal Department of CFC
to fabricate false history for SAMAAN's loan applications in 2004,

5) Records showing CFC and even more recently CFC/BOA appearing


in court for almost two years under the party designation of "NON-
PARTY", while the court interchangeably designates it "DEFENDANT",
"PLAINTIFF", "INTERVENOR","ROSS-DEFENDANT","REAL PARTY IN
INTEREST", etc. [5] Such appearances are deemed false and deliberately
misleading and have no basis in the law of the U.S. or California, Therefore
they place the entire litigation in a real that is outside the law.

6) July 23, 2007 Protective/Gag Order by Judge JACQUELINE


CONNOR [6]. Such purported order led to two judgment of quasi-criminal
nature being entered by Judge Terry Friedman against me, both at the
request of CFC, The second one - in February 2009, at the requests of
CFC/BOA. I have no valid court record of that nature, and the court and
CFC/ BOA so far have failed to produce this record either.

____
Below I attached a short review of part of Samaan v Zernik that allows you
to place the records above in their context.

You must realize that you have much greater influence in this case than
correcting the wrongdoing against me in Samaan v Zernik, because this
case happened to travel in time and space that were prior to it, and
afterwards as well, the scene of other much bigger events. Insignificant as
the case itself was and is, it provides unique insights into the bigger events
that are reflected in it.

a) Rampart scandal, and continued false imprisonment of 10,000, mostly


black and latinos in LA, 10 years after confirmation of their innocence.

The most notorious example of the malfunction of the LA Superior Court are
of course the estimated 10,000 people who are still falsely imprisoned in LA
County, mostly black and latinos, victims of wrongdoing by police of the
Rampart station. Such wrongdoing was exposed and investigated in detail
as part of the Rampart scandal of 1998-2000. In my efforts to understand
470 / 545
what was happening in the courtroom in Samaan v Zernik I eventually got
involved in studying the Rampart scandal, since Judge JACQUELINE
CONNOR was and is the central figure in both, in more ways than officially
acknowledged.

In fact, I claim that the two cases are mirror images of each other, one in the
criminal courts, the other in the civil courts. In both cases false evidence was
routinely entered. In one case - police purportedly "duped" judges like
CONNOR, in the other - corporations like CFC. In fact, combined review of
the two cases would lead a reasonable person to the inevitable conclusion,
that Judge JACQUELINE CONNOR was never "duped" at all. Similarly I
claim that what was stated by Judge CONNOR in her December 22, 2000
ruling that reversed jury verdicts of the four police that were first to be
prosecuted for their conduct revealed in the scandal, as her own "errors" in
jury instructions, and "errors" she routinely allegedly made in Samaan v
Zernik, resulting in invalid litigation records, were no errors at all. Instead, I
claim that she herself was the central figure, not only as a judge, but also as
the one who initiated or coordinated the wrongdoing in both Samaan v
Zernik, and on a much bigger scale - in the cases that underlie the Rampart
scandal and later in derailing the first Rampart trial, Therefore, she herself is
the central figure who is accountable for what we see today - the continued
false imprisonments of at least 10,000 people - mostly black and latinos -
who were confirmed innocent in the investigations of the Rampart scandal.
Such conditions were capably described in the Blue Ribbon Review Panel
report of 2006 [7].

My request for an immediate review by the Audit Committee of which you


are a member, of the conduct of CFC/BOA in Samaan v Zernik bears
directly on the conduct of Judge CONNOR in Samaan v Zernik, and
indirectly - on her conduct in the Rampart scandal and the demands for
restoring my rights per International Law, and also the rights of the Rampart-
FIPs (Falsely Imprisoned Persons).

b) Sub-prime crisis and bailout

I am of the opinion that the conduct of the office of the General Counsel of
BOA in Samaan v Zernik call for immediate scrutiny by the Audit Committee
of the CFC/BOA merger agreement. In particular - any provisions that were
explicitly made by the Bush administration, or even insinuated by such
officials relative to criminal liabilities related to the conduct of Countrywide
prior and also after the merger with BOA. There is no doubt in my mind that
true review of the conduct of CFC would lead to the conclusion that it was
and is a corrupt organization. You may read small fraction of the evidence
below. BOA officers must have recognized that fact as well, and must have
taken steps to protect themselves from being drawn into such affair. But as
part of the merger-bailout, BOA at minimum must take responsibility to stop
any such criminal conduct that is alleged to be ongoing.

I believe that this AUDIT COMMITTEE, listing respectable names, who


served this country for many years, would not have tolerated anything less
than an honest General Counsel at BOA. And yet, following the merger the
office of Mr MAYOPOULOS has engaged in conduct relative to Samaan v
Zernik that has been far from honest. The only explanation for such conduct
at BOA that I could come up with, is that U.S. administration officials, in their
desperation to avoid total melt-down of financial markets before they leave
office, made representations to that office that were taken to mean that
conduct of CFC in general, or in LA County, or just in LA Superior Court, or
just in Samaan v Zernik were extra-constitutional zones, similar in nature to
471 / 545
Guantanamo Bay. Such discrimination is unacceptable. We who live in Los
Angeles County are entitled per the International Bill of Human Rights
(1976) to Equal Protection under the law, with no regionally-based
discrimination by government in the application of the law.

Likewise, when you read the pages below, surely you will find some points
where you would contemplate whether ANGELO MOZILO, SANDOR
SAMUELS, MARIA McLAURIN, TODD BOOCK, OR SANFORD SHATZ, all
CFC people, were engaging in criminal conduct. Most of them are still
CFC/BOA employees, and are still engaging in the same conduct through
Samaan v Zernik - now - under the BOA name and under your oversight
duties.

Obviously, I hold the FBI investigation, running now for a year, as


deliberately aimless. And statements made by the FBI and law enforcement
regarding investigation of the causes of the sub-prime crisis as deliberate
attempts to mislead the public. But all of that does not permit you, as a
member of the Audit Committee of BOA/CFC to ignore your duties.

Some officers of the U.S. may consider that they have successfully fooled
the public, for example, in responses by Mr KAISER (FBI) and Mr MELSON
(USDOJ) to Congressional inquiries by Senator FEINSTEIN and
Congresswoman WATSON concerning Samaan v Zernik in August -
September 2008. But the true answer to such conduct is coming roaring
from financial markets at home and abroad - nobody is fooled! We are yet to
see the end of it. Absent renewed confidence in the integrity of U.S. financial
institutions and financial markets, and underlying that - the rule of law and
integrity of the courts, there will be no way to sustain the interests of your
share holders. That is where you have enormous responsibility these days,
when others fail their duties.

As described below, one feature that is common to the two affairs - the
alleged frauds at the LA Superior Court and the alleged frauds at CFC, - is
the misuse of large computer systems: SUSTAIN at the court and EDGE at
CFC. It is my opinion that until BOA undertakes review of the operation of
EDGE by CFC, one must assume that the frauds are permitted to continue.
With the LA Superior Court and SUSTAIN the wrongdoing is compounded -
since in order to enable the alleged frauds in SUSTAIN, the court has been
concealing for the past quarter century public records, and denying public
access to such records. I hold that it is the denial of public access to public
records that is at present the stumbling block in the release of the Rampart-
FIPs.

I therefore also started a petition online for the restoration of fair tribunals in
LA County, pursuant to International Law, and the Right for Liberty of the
estimated 10,000 Rampart-FIPs. Their innocence was established 10 years
ago, and after it was confirmed and re-affirmed by several review panels
since then. The essence of the petition is a call for reestablishing public
access to the public records of the LA Superior Court. That would be
necessary and sufficient to bring about speedy release of the FIPs. I would
be grateful if you sign the petition, to show your support. Their continued
false imprisonment is inexcusable, it is a disgrace of historic proportions as
well - and more than 10 times the scope of the Guantanamo Bay detentions.
Petition: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/restore-justice-in-l-a
Blue Ribbon 2006 Report: http://inproperinla.com/00-00-00-rampart-blue-ribbon-
review-panel-2006-report.pdf
Front line, PBS, one source of estimates: http://inproperinla.com/01-05-01-pbs-
frontline_rampart-false-imprisonments-s.pdf
I similarly demand restoration of my own full rights pursuant to the
International Bill of Human Rights (1976) which incorporated the Universal
472 / 545
Deceleration of Human Rights (1948). I hold that it would be sufficient to
allow me full access to my litigation records of Samaan v Zernik in the
SUSTAIN file, to demonstrate unequivocally, and in great detail, that which
is already evident - that the litigation as a whole is based on false and
deliberately misleading conduct by the court. But the court would not allow
me access to the file even in the fourth year of litigation, in disregard of the
U.S. Constitution, U.S. Law, California Constitution, California Law,
California Rules of Court, etc.

All of this is meant to convey the concept - CFC is alleged to have been
involved in crimes that were beyond financial recklessness, it was a major
participant in the corruption of the courts in LA, and the victims were all 10
millions who live in LA County. We ask that you take corrective actions, and
we believe that BOA has the power to effect correction that is far beyond
Samaan v Zernik, for example - by making the court allow me access to my
own litigation file in SUSTAIN, in compliance with the International Law, and
access to the comparable records of the criminal courts, which would allow
the speedy release of the Rampart-FIPs. The effect of the restoration of
such simple basic civil rights would be tremendous.

REVIEW OF ALLEGED FRAUDS DIRECTLY RELATED TO CFC IN


SAMAAN V ZERNIK

In Samaan v Zernik (SC087400), starting with the filing of the complaint in


October 2005, or even earlier, judge(s) of the Los Angeles Superior Court
are alleged to have colluded with CFC and NIVIE SAMAAN in fraud in the
courtroom against me and against the people. However, prior to that,
starting September 2004, Countrywide colluded with SAMAAN in fraud that
was related to her attempt to purchase my residence, but where in fact the
U.S. government and CFC Share Holders were the primary targets. Had
that fraud succeeded, I would have never even known about the whole
affair, since I had no business with CFC. Only after the fraud against the
U.S. Government and CFC Share Holders failed, did CFC and SAMAAN
target the fraud against me.

1. Fraud in 2004 against U.S. Government and CFC Share Holders in a


failed real estate transaction

In September 2004 I had my Beverly Hills Residence listed for sale.


SAMAAN made an offer, representing herself as a realtor "closing a few
properties a year". I refused to review the offer prior to receipt of a third
party, arm's length prequalificaion. A few days later, she indeed produced a
Prequalification letter. In 2007 I realized it was fraud, and later it was
examined and found the same by a fraud expert. Under such fraud and
others I was induced to assent to contract in 2004.

In the contract, SAMAAN was required "to act diligently and honestly to
obtain designated loans". However, she never removed the loan
contingencies on time. Neither did she remove the appraisal contingency,
albeit she had an appraisal that came at sales price in her possession. She
did not explain why she never obtained loan approval, and I did not even
know that she was dealing with CFC. She did not ask for extension either,
although it was getting close to escrow closing day. At the advice of my
realtor I then gave her a notice to buyer to perform. She refused to complete
the removal of contingencies, and also refused to cancel escrow, and
claimed that my realtor and she, also a realtor, had some verbal
understandings that she was not bound by the time frames stipulated in the
contract.

On October 18, 2004, at the time that my realtor faxed the Notice to
Perform, he realized that the fax machine was automatically forwarding his
fax, and instead of going to SAMAAN's loan broker, as dialed, it was going
to SAMAAN. To make a long story short - SAMAAN was impersonating her
loan broker in communications with me and in communications with CFC all
474 / 545
along. As far a CFC is concerned, it is likely or almost certain that such
arrangement was in full agreement with the Branch Manager, MARIA
MCLAURIN, who the records show was involved in the frauds all along. My
realtor then sent a request for explanation to SAMAAN and to loan broker
PARKS. Neither would answer regarding what must be deemed upon
review as wire/fax fraud - a serious federal offense and also a predicated act
for RICO.

I then issue instruction to cancel escrow.

A few days later, Samaan sent notice to my realtor that she had removed
the contingencies, and that the loans were fully approved by October 25,
2004. She demanded to close escrow. I refused to deal with her.

2. Frauds from 2005 to the present - under the guise of litigation at the LA
Superior Court

a. October 2005: Initiation of an invalid litigation

A year later, in October 2005, Samaan filed complaint against me in the Los
Angeles Superior court. In January 2009 I realized that she never paid her
filing fees, her check were NSF, just like her checks for the escrow deposit.
By law, the complaint must be dismissed at the end of 30 days. Not this one.
I also wrote to the clerk of the court, but as usual, received no response.
Similarly, in late 2008, I realized that all payments in Samaan v Zernik
similar to all payments in anther "Enterprise Track" case - Galdjie v Darwish,
are listed as "Journal Entries", whereas payments in "True Court Track"
cases are listed as "Filing Fees", "Motion Setting Fees", "Stipulations Fees",
etc.

The original complaint was based on the claim of "oral modification" of a real
estate contract, and the complaint did not include any contract at all, and did
not provide a good explanation why. My attorney filed a Demurrer per
statute of frauds. In her first appearance in proceedings in this case, Judge
JACQUELINE CONNOR, in open court Overruled the Demurrer, without
asking SAMAAN even to amend the complaint by including a contract. In
late 2007, when I deciphered slowly the frauds in Sustain -the court's
computer systems, I realized that she deliberately left invalid records of the
Demurrer - it was simultaneously "Overruled", "Granted", and "Disposed".
The Initial Case Conference that was purportedly conducted on that day,
had no true record at all. Likewise - I later found out - all key proceedings in
Samaan v Zernik were invalid - a key feature of the Enterprise Track of the
Court.

b. November 2006: SAMAAN's original claims seemed to evaporate - new


false claims were fabricated - in collusion with CFC

In July 2006 SAMAAN provided deposition which was very damaging to her.
She admitted that PARKS, the loan broker never had anything to do with the
loan application to CFC, that she and her husband, JAE ARRE LLOYD, who
then we learnt, was a "Business Partner" of CFC as a "Loan Originator"
produced all the records. Eventually I also found out that he was a convicted
felon, on financial crime against SKYLINE FUNDING, but had his identity
change (formerly - TIMOTHY LLOYD MORROW). Indeed, fraud expert
examination of the CFC loan applications, confirmed fraud, on account of
false verification. Separately the loan applications must also be deemed
fraud on false employment data, income, marital status, and other data.

In November 2006, I asked my attorney to run a motion to expunge lis


475 / 545
pendens. In fact, my main interest was "to test the armies", since the whole
litigation was baseless from the start, and it was incomprehensible why it
was not yet dismissed. The motion to expunge lis pendens was expected to
work like a general rehearsal for a trial - forcing the parties to show their
cards. Then , SAMAAN switched attorneys, to SHEPPARD MULLIN, the
new attorney, MOHAMMAD KESHAVARZI asked to continue the hearing.
Evidence I obtained much later showed a last minute, rush, three-way
correspondence between KESHAVARZI, LLOYD, and McLAURIN, in which
entirely new false claims were fabricated on November 3-6, 2006. The
litigation was no longer based on the "oral modification" claims, but instead,
on the fabulous claims that I prevented SAMAAN from obtaining her loans in
a timely fashion from CFC. Accordingly, a letter was produced by CFC -
through McLAURIN to authenticate a fraudulent entirely new Underwriting
Letter[1], which was never produced in discovery before. McLAURIN's letter
also fraudulently misrepresented SAMAAN's loan underwriting history.

Such letter was far less that a declaration, as requested by KESHAVARZI.


In fact, the letter was inadequate for either authenticating the Underwriting
Letter or to introduce new statements of facts. Therefore, the fraudulent
CFC Underwriting Letter should never have been admitted as evidence in a
competent court, since it was not verified, and also since it had inadequate
authentication. My attorney did file his objections, but Judge JACQUELINE
CONNOR nevertheless allowed such inadmissible evidence to be admitted
in an ex parte sur reply proceeding - an entirely unreasonable due process
practice. But as was her habit throughout the litigation - she did not leave
explicit evidentiary rulings. She later based her ruling on such fraud, and
denied the Motion to Expunge Lis Pendens.

Therefore, the Motion to Expunge Lis Pendens in November 2006 indeed


forced SAMAAN to show her cards- unlimited source of false records and
declarations in CFC, and a similarly unlimited source of deliberately false
rulings by Judge CONNOR. A reasonable person upon review of the case
would conclude that such understandings were set up prior to the filing of
the complaint. Much later, i figured out that both the Motion to Expunge Lis
Pendens, and also the Trial Setting Conference that was purportedly
conducted that day were never registered in a valid way.

c. December 2006: Already in my initial review of discovery records I


realized that fraud by CFC was involved

About a month later, in mid-December 2006, I started reviewing the


discovery records of the litigation for the first time. Within 15 minutes so, it
was clear to me that discovery records included many that were fraudulent,
that my counsel never advised me of. In particular, I then saw for the first
time the subpoena production from CFC [2]. Although I had no background
in law, in banking, in baking regulation, or in real estate, it was obviously
fraud. But again - my attorney never advised me of that, and never filed a
cross complaint for fraud and deceit against CFC or SAMAAN. When he
asked me for my opinion of the records, I told him that I thought that there
were numerous frauds in them. He claimed that I was "clueless" (which I
was). I then took some key records, and went to FBI and California DEPT of
REAL ESTATE. I was then lucky (neither I, nor my counterparts knew then
that judges were involved) and I got honest advise - that I was right, and that
my attorney was negligent for not filing counterclaims. particularly I was
advised that the Fraudulent Inducement was sufficient to make the contract
void, and with it , also the litigation in its entirety.

My attorney then offered me $25,000 in fee waiver to leave his office


(without signing any release).
476 / 545
In January 2007 I started searching for a counsel who would file counter
claims for fraud and deceit. I could find none.

In January 2007 I also filed with CFC a new subpoena for documents, and
in the instructions I explicitly wrote that the previous production was deemed
to include fraudulent records, and I requested that the new one would be
free of such records.

In January 2007 I also filed my first complaint with FBI against CFC and
others, noting the fraud against U.S. Gov, against me,. against share
holders, and against the people.

d. December 2006- February 2007: Attempts to obtain from CFC authentic


records through repeated subpoena failed - CFC repeatedly produced false
records.

By February 2007 CFC repeated the Subpoena 3 more time, with all the
same fraudulent records as before. I believe that the production of such
records in itself includes more than sufficient predicated acts to indict the two
attorneys involved in the Legal Department - TODD BOOCK, and
SANFORD SHATZ, and well as ANGELO MOZILO and SANDOR
SAMUELS. SAMUELS - was directly in charge of the Legal Department,
and both of these officers received from me direct requests, similar to the
one you are receiving here - to authenticate or repudiate specific fraudulent
records, on a number of occasions. They routinely refused to respond, and
initiated a campaign of harassment against me, that continues even today.

The fraud in the subpoena production was clear, but the Legal Department
insisted on repeating it again and again, including in Meet and Confer in
March 2007:

i) The double date received stamps on the loan applications,


and insistence on denial of the true date of receipt of the
loan applications.
Such adulterations are also in complete disregard for Regulation B and Fair
Housing Fair Credit laws, which are all based on pipe line reports, which in
turn are based on date of filing of the loan application. Even in meet and
confer, Att SHATZ and BOOCK insisted that the applications arrived only
once, and that the date of receipt was October 12, 2004. They had no
explanation at all for the defaced stamps. They denied any imaging report,
any pipeline report, any security report, any integral audit report, any
external audit report existed regarding such "ugly" banking records.
There is a group of records in the subpoena file with fax header imprint of
October 6 or 7, 2004. If we are to accept the fax header as indicative of date
of arrival - these records contradict the date of arrival of October 14,2004.
These records, like others that are part of the fax/wire fraud come from an
anonymous machine, in obvious violation of UETA, of "sound banking
principles", and also in contradiction of CFC's own policy and procedure
manual on fax machines operations.
In fact - the application were received the first time on or about October 4,
2004. By October 6, 2007, DIANE FRAZIER - the senior underwriter in San
Rafael detected the fraud in employment data, and noted it, as can be seen
in evidence in the subpoenas themselves . FRAZIER was also unable to
complete the disclosures, which are by law required within 3 days, since
SAMAAN falsely listed $0.00 as loan fees, where 0.75% was due (over
$10,000). . Finally - there was no contract at all with the application, and
most other support documentation was missing. It was not a reasonable
application.
477 / 545
FRAZIER then issued the first underwriting letter, which was omitted from
the subpoena production, although CFC denied that all along. It demanded,
just like the one from October 14, 2004, that Samaan provide new loan
applications (1003), and correct the employment data, or provide a
reasonable explanation. It also demanded listing of correct loan fees of
0.75%, and also a copy of the signed contract, since no contract at all was
included with the application.
McLAURIN insisted that there was no need for new applications, and that
there was no need for the 0.75% loan fees in this case. At the end, to spite
FRAZIER, she defaced the date received stamps on the old applications,
stamped them again, on October 12, 2004, as if they were new, and passed
them through imaging, then presented them to FRAZIER as new
applications. FRAZIER in response issued the underwriting letter of October
14, 2004, which repeated the previous conditions, but now also listed a 10
day suspension, within which SAMAAN was required to provide the new
records, or else the applications would be terminated. She included also
condition of corporate underwriting approval (Mr DEMETERIO GADI)

ii) Loan application records are missing authentication data,


and in fact represent retroactive fabrication of the loan file.
As mentioned above - the records include many that carry fax header that
does not match the official time frames, and also came from an anonymous
machine. I claims that such records came from SAMAAN's HP fax/printer
which she operated in two modes. One - "Spellbound" ID -as seen in a
defective copy of the contract that she faxed on Friday, October 22, 2004.
That record had the fax cover sheet omitted - probably to hide the fact that
SAMAAN was faxing directly to CFC, which she was prohibited from doing,
and CFC was prohibited from receiving records from her either. Two =
"Anonymous" which was used when she was impersonating PARKS. This
ID had no name and no phone numbers. Accepting such records by CFC
was obviously in violation of law and regulations. But from time to time,
SAMAAN mixed them up, and also in litigation she filed the fax log itself,
assuming that nobody would figure it out, and the HP laser jet lists in one log
the transmissions of the two IDs.
In fact, as SAMAAN admitted in her deposition -- PARKS had nothing to do
with the loan applications. That is in fact evident, since of all the hand
signatures of PARKS in this loan file - all are forged. Not a single one is an
authentic PARKS signature, although they can be divided into two
categories - the Southern California forgery (probably by LLOYD) and the
Northern California forgery (probably by Becky Cusera). The single
signature, that is essential for the validity of the loan file as a whole, is
missing - the signature on the record titled "Broker's Certification of
Records".
Most of the record arrived most likely by email attachments to McLAURIN.
When - we have no way of knowing from the loan application file. But as far
as I can tell, they were inserted into the loan file after October 24, 2004,
regardless of the dates in the fax header imprint. CFC never produced the
emails. In fact, that is how I knew already in December 2006 that the Legal
Department was a corrupt organization. When I first reviewed the subpoena,
it included "Conversation Logs", which were clearly some blank forms from
an entirely different era than the rest of the records. There were various
places where it was obvious that all communications were by then by email -
with GADI, with ORTON, etc. I then simply called MARIA McLAURIN, and
she picked up the phone, and I asked her why the emails were not included.
She was possibly confused, and to defend herself explained that subpoenas
were prepared through joint work by her and the Legal Department, and that
the legal Department determined the subpoenas do not pertain to email, and
therefore they included the blank conversation logs instead.

478 / 545
In short - the false records were not the product of negligence by a
custodian of records and lack of attention by any more senior manager. On
the contrary, a group of senior employees - MARIA was probably even an
officer, decided to get CFC in this litigation, which it was not party to, and do
so in order to obstruct and pervert justice, thought the staff of the Legal
Department. Obviously, it would not be the first time ever - I never thought I
was that special. Similar results were confirmed by March 2008 by the
Decision of U.S. Judge JEFF BOHM in Texas, based on a year long study
of the practices of CFC in courts around the country, and the fraud in a
Pennsylvania Court in January 2008 is what caused the final decision on
take over by BOA. Furthermore, as I later found out, the coordination of
such frauds continued all the way to the Presidential Suit - when Office of
Thrift Supervision is sending an email and receiving back a false statement,
intended to obstruct and pervert justice. And then the Office of Thrift
Supervision parrots it in an official letter of the agency, as if it were the
outcome of an "investigation".

iii) The loan applications were never approved on October 25,


2004, as claimed by Samaan and CFC, neither were they
approved at any other time.
Neither by October 25. 2004. nor by Jan 27, 2005, the date of denial by
Countrywide Bank, did Samaan ever complete even the most basic
condition - providing loan application with correct loan fees on her loan
applications, and signing the disclosures as required by law.
Furthermore, even the representation of the loan applications as live and
well after October 25,2004 is entirely fraudulent. By that day they were
officially dead. But McLAURIN operated, and for all we know still operates
today a special "Zombie-applications/ Regulation B-Exempt Track" in
parallel to the official "Regulation B-nonexempt Track".
On October 25, 2004, when the 10 day suspension was over, and the
applications officially were dead, "EDGE" CFC's underwriting monitoring
system was supposed to kill the applications. Moreover, any reasonable
system like that must not allow a non underwriter access to underwriting of
loan applications. Obviously all security and auditing controls were
dismantled in San Rafael, and for all we know the branch is still managed
the same way today. Because the final outcome was and still is that the
underwriter was terminated, and is living in fear, monitored at home years
after dismissal, and the Branch Manger, who engaged in multiple frauds, is
still in the same position.
McLAURIN inserted herself as underwriter, in violation of law and
regulations, and started efforts to fund the applications in disregard of
conditions set by FRAZIER, the duly assigned underwriter, and also in
disregard of conditions set by Mr GADI in his Oct 29, 2004 response to the
October 25, 2004 Exception Request filed by McLAURIN. On October 25,
2004, McLAURIN filed a fraudulent Exception Request with Mr GADI, she
inflated SAMAAN's fraudulent income from $400,000 to $4,000,000. She
also omitted the required "CLUES" report from the request - since it would
have been derogatory. Neither would she file a contract, since the contact
would cause SAMAAN's applications to be denied immediately.
Beyond that, the fact that the system allowed a loan application that was
purportedly filed on October 12, 2004 to be presented for funding in January
27, 2005, with no underwriting decision along the way, indicates complete
breakdown of compliance with time frames and Regulation-B at San Rafael,
and any pipeline report - the key report in regulation of such government-
backed operation from that branch should be considered suspect.
Otherwise stated - without being a bank regulator, I cannot believe that any
internal or external audit was in place in San Rafael, or for that matter is now
in place in the San Rafael branch of Countrywide Home Loans, Inc, and for

479 / 545
that matter in any of the wholesale branches. The overall nature of the
conduct points out to total disregard for the law.

iv) The true reason that SAMAAN never filed a contract with
her applications was that it included a fatal violation
SAMAAN was never qualified for the purchase contract she signed, and she
never had sufficient cash for the down payment, even in the conditions that
prevailed then. Therefore, she wrote into the contract that her commission
as broker for self would be counted as part as the down payment. Such
transaction is explicitly prohibited. Had SAMAAN filed the contract anytime
during the period that FRAZIER was in charge of underwriting, the
applications would have been immediately denied. Therefore, the contract
was faxed only AFTER FRAZIER was no longer involved - i.e. after the
applications were purportedly terminated on October 25, 2004.
Therefore, after October 25, 2004, the applications were both fatally flawed,
and also dead on account of failure to correct the conditions of suspension
prior to October 25, 2004. Regardless, McLAURIN continued her efforts,
operating a fraud on the U.S. government and on share holders, and tried to
get the applications funded only to be denied by Countrywide Bank at the
end.
Some questions linger: wasn't Mr GADI supposed to be online on EDGE?
Couldn't he see that these were Zombie-Regulation-B Exempt Track
applications? I believe that he had to be online on the system, and that top
management knew of the Zombie/Regulation-B Exempt Track, but it was
just one more way to "streamline" underwriting. It does not make sense any
other way to have corporate underwriting support if that orifice is not live on
the system.

e. March 2007: Locating FRAZIER, establishing an estimate of U.S.


liabilities, and a death threat

In March 2007, I also located DIANE FRAZIER. It was clear that she had a
conflict with McLAURIN, and that she would know the true details. We
discussed the subject in great detail by phone. She was obviously
intimidated, even 2 years after her termination, and she remembered any of
the smallest details of SAMAAN's applications, the one that cost her the job
after 19 years with CFC. She repeatedly warned me "You don't know who
you are dealing with", and also "Nobody can touch MARIA McLAURIN".

That conversation was also sufficient for me to produce estimates of the


liabilities anticipated to U.S. government and the U.S. tax payer that now
seems to surprise some observers. It was not that difficult at all. I consider
the significance in the formulating of the question. I by then had already had
discussions with research analysts in Federal Reserve regarding the state of
calculating the Savings and Loans losses, which I figured out was the only
reasonable precedent. The take home lesson from that discussion was that
we will never know the true cost of such losses, since it is a moving target
with currently fluctuations etc. Therefore, I figured out that a very rough
estimate was all that was needed. Based on several figures from San
Rafael, and the number of branches in COUNTRYWIDE HOME LOANS,
INC, I estimated the total loss. With that there is the implied assumption that
the WHOLESALE DIVISION was the hot bed of frauds, and that the other
parts of CFC were negligible in comparison relative to fraudulent loans. The
whole business model appeared unreasonable.

The next time I tried to call DIANE FRAZIER, I got a man by phone, and he
explained to me angrily that FRAZIER was not allowed to talk with me in the
first place, because CFC did not allow it, and "If you call this number again, I
will come down to LA and gun you down". When I tried to have her served
480 / 545
for subpoena deposition, a man answered the door, and claimed she no
longer lived there, and my service people observed the house 24 hours a
day for a few days, she was never seen.

During these months of January - June, 2007 I also sent several messages
to SANDOR Samuels and ANGELO MOZILO directly, since they advertised
that they were personally fighting frauds. I asked them to authenticate or
repudiate the key records. They never responded.

f) July 2007: Harassment, retaliation, and intimidation against a witness,


victim, and informant started in full force

In late June I then left a sealed envelope for SANDOR SAMUELS at BET
TZEDEK, HOUSE OF JUSTICE, where he served as president, and where
he advertised on the web his personal campaign against fraud. It was a
copy of the usual request. The next day, the whole web site of HOUSE OF
JUSTICE was down, and it remained down for about a week. When it came
back up, it was a two year older version, with no mention of SAMUELS or
his campaign against frauds.

A week later, on July 6, 2007 CFC appeared in court as "NON PARTY" at a


time that the court was "dark", for an ex parte application for what they call
"Protective Order" - while such discovery motions were no longer allowed.
By its nature and timing, I consider it "Gag Order" it sought to prohibit me
from talking to almost anybody who Countrywide wanted me not to talk with.
I was to be prohibited from talking with FRAZIER, RABBI BERNHARDT,
retired JUDGE SCHOETTLER.

CFC's moving papers are now missing from court file, although my paper in
opposition did appear there last time I checked. Likewise, there is no minute
order for that proceeding. And yet, CFC used a fictitious order that
persuadably was the progeny of this hearing, as the basis for fraudulent
sanctions and Contempt hearing against me, under Judge TERRY
FRIEDMAN in both February March 2008, and February 2009.

g) Searching for attorney, and leave to file compulsory counterclaims for


fraud and deceit is denied

Only in July 2007 I found the reason why I could not find an attorney to file
for me the fraud and deceit counterclaims. It came from Att LARRY
ROTHSTEIN - that attorneys in LA were intimidated by Judge
JACQUELINE CONNOR. Any experienced real estate attorney would know
that she would not rule in favor of a fraud and deceit argument. Yet worse -
she would retaliate against the counsel who filed it.

Eventually I filed the motion for leave to amend answer for the counterclaims
in pro per. Judge JACQUELINE CONNOR then without any reason
continued the hearing by several weeks, then denied the right to file such
counterclaims, which are considered "compulsory".

h) August 2007: Summary Judgment in August 2007 and the second key
record from CFC - real property purchase contract

In motion for summary judgment in August 2007, Judge CONNOR allowed


SAMAAN's counsel, KESHAVARZI to enter the contract that was the
subject of the litigation, in Reply brief, in violation of due process.[3] That
was a fraudulent record from countrywide. With that , the statute of frauds
fraud, which defined the first 2 years of the litigation was concluded, and on
the same day the second overarching fraud was initiated - the entry of
481 / 545
judgment fraud, which would define the remainder of the litigation. At the
summary judgment hearing, I spent the whole time allowed for me in oral
arguments on demonstrating the various frauds evident in that CFC record.
The main fraud in it was the Fax/Wire Fraud. It came with a fax cover sheet
that purported to be of PARKS, and the fax transmission was purported to
have arrived at San Rafael on October 25, 2004, 5:03 pm, by fax from
Washington State, from PARKS - SAMAAN's loan broker. Based on such
fax, it was purported that SAMAAN's loan applications were approved -
albeit - much earlier in the day. And VICTOR PARKS in fact dated such fax
in his declaration of November 2006 to Friday, October 22, 2004 - since the
fraudulent claims were fabricated as you go, there were such inherent fatal
inconsistencies. Moreover, already in the hearing in August 2007 I showed
that the imprint of October 25,2004, 5:03 pm was from a transmission from
SAMAAN to LLOYD, as part of the wire/fax fraud, and not at all a
transmission from PARKS to SAN RAFAEL.

We have no knowledge when and how the record arrived at CFC, like most
other records in the fraudulent subpoena production, since they arrived as
part the fax/wire fraud. Most likely - as attachments to email from LLOYD TO
McLAURIN, at a time that was later than the time of the transmission from
SAMAAN to LLOYD, but is otherwise undefined.

Again, although the record was inadequately entered as evidence, and


never adequately authenticated, and overruling objections, but refusing to
issue explicit evidentiary rulings, Judge JACQUELINE CONNOR admitted it
as evidence , and based the "judgment" on it. Furthermore, the fraudulent
Inducement, which was clearly evidenced, was simply ruled by her "RED
HERRING".

A new attorney I hired then, EDWARD HOFFMAN, agreed to help me write


a motion for reconsideration. On August 21, 2007, after working overnight
with Att HOFFMAN to complete the motion in time, I filed the motion for
reconsideration signed by him, at his insistence, while he appeared for me in
a short hearing with Judge JACQUELINE CONNOR. When we met, shortly
afterwards, he was visibly shaken. He eventfully admitted that Judge
JACQUELINE CONNOR intimidated him with threats of action against his
license. He insisted on withdrawing any paper bearing his name, and with
that his representation came to an end. I also missed the deadline for that
critical motion.

i) >July 1, 2008: Fraud by CFC/BOA continues

In the period after August 2007 and until January 2008, I was subjected to
some of the worst abuse. But that part did not directly involve CFC. It had
already done its share. Suffice is to say that I was forced to abandon my
home under pure threat of force, with no legal foundation. Att. DAVID
PASTERNAK a friend of both SANDOR SAMUELS and Judge FRIEDMAN
forcibly entered the property, "took possession", purported to sell it to
SAMAAN, kept the funds to himself, and filed a fraudulent grant deed on the
property, as opined by veteran decorated FBI agent, JAMES WEDICK:
Accordingly, based on above observations MR. .WEDICK opines an
immediate investigation should be instituted in an effort to ascertain the
circumstances behind any fraud being committed so that appropriate local,
state, and federal authorities can be notified, including the appropriate court.
[8]
I never received a penny from the purported sale of the property. By law, if
any of the matter was conducted under the law, I was to receive the
proceeds within 30 days.

482 / 545
In January 2008 CFC renewed its harassment campaign, and in
proceedings by Judge FRIEDMAN, who like all judges before him never
held an Assignment Order, and was acting with no valid authority at all,
sanctions were set on me for over $22,000, at the request of CFC, based on
proceedings and evidence that were all false and deliberately misleading.

After July 1, 2008 when CFC became a subsidiary of BOA, I expected that
all such actions will cease. I have sent notifications to officers of BOA
starting February 2008, and I even received a response from the office of Mr
Kenneth Lewis in February 2008, indicating receipt of my notice. When
BRYAN CAVE, LLP, continued the purported representation of CFC after
the merger, I asked for information about corporate disclosure and nature of
their engagement. They never provided adequate responses.

I therefore contacted in November-December the Offices of Mr TIMOTHY


MAYOPOULOS, and spoke with several senior staff members there, and
also left a couple of messages on Mr MAYOPOULOS' extension. All those I
spoke with , without exception, were unanimous: BRYAN CAVE, LLP was
NOT authorized to appear in court for CFC/BOA. However, although a
couple of those I spoke with promised to follow up with a written statement
to the same effect, I could never obtain such statement, and in fact, the
records show that the office of Mr MAYOPOULOS colludes with BRYAN
CAVE, LLP in their alleged fraudulent appearances in court in LA.

Such conduct is surely in contradiction with the principles guiding the


conduct of the General Counsel, as detailed BOA manual: External Counsel
Procedures. The most plausible explanation for such deceitful conduct is
that it is intended to bypass compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Section
307.

In proceedings on January 13, 2009, and February 17, 2009 Judge


FRIEDMAN again found me in contempt and again set sanctions for
thousands of dollars. This time the claim by BRYAN CAVE, LLP was that
my phone calls to the office of General Counsel of BOA, where I uncovered
their fraud in court - appearing for BOA without authorization, constituted
violation of a court order from July 23, 2007. Not only is that court order yet
to be discovered, it could not possibly refer to anything related to BOA. No
need to get into all the additional ways in which the whole spectacle is an
insult to any notion of justice system under a regime that represents itself as
compliant with International Law.

j) Computer systems: Represent compliance, but underlie alleged frauds


at both CFC and LA Superior Court

Upon review of the case as a whole, one fact of interest is that the basic
tools enabling the frauds at San Rafael and in Los Angeles are the same -
Computer system that were installed to convey the impression of better
compliance and scrutiny, but in fact are used for the opposite purpose - for
circumventing the law. At San Rafael it is the mode of operation in EDGE, at
the court it is the mode of operation of SUSTAIN.

k) Denial of access to public records: Conditions of justice in LA County


are medieval in nature.

In reviewing the case as a whole, one cannot avoid noticing that the case
was defined by courtroom frauds that were typical of much older eras - as
far back as the medieval era - the statute of frauds fraud, and the entry of
judgment fraud. I would add to that the opinion that the continued
imprisonment of the estimated 10,000 Rampart victims is also of the same
483 / 545
nature - a medieval fraud of the court. And the reason that in the early 21st
century we find in Los Angeles County medieval frauds of the court is that
conditions in Los Angeles County Superior Court are in some respects of
late medieval nature. The right to access judicial records to inspect and to
copy, which was affirmed by the U.S. Supreme Court as part of Nixon v.
Warner Communications, Inc., 435 U.S. 589 (1978) is denied in LA County
since 1985 - the time computers were introduced in that court in what must
be deemed fraud on the people.

I hold that it is the lack of access to Books of Court that is preventing us from
engaging in Habeas Corpus writs to free the Rampart victims... Since
although the Habeas Corpus was granted in the earlier middle ages, I am
confident that there studies out there showing its ineffectiveness until a later
period, when the concept of Books of Court and public records became
common place.

For example, to this date I am not permitted by this court to inspect and to
copy my own litigation records in Samaan v Zernik. It is exactly that - the
denial of public access to public records that are the records of the court that
enables this range of medieval frauds - from Statute of Frauds Fraud, to
Entry of Judgment Fraud, to the continued False Imprisonment of the
Rampart victims - thousands of innocent citizens.

l) Los Angeles Superior Court is in violation of International Law

The Los Angeles County Superior Court of California has operated in the
past quarter century in a manner that upon review by a competent
international court of jurisdiction, is likely to be deemed as an ongoing
violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. I hold that in my
case, the following articles were violated:

Article 2 says:
"Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this
Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, color, sex,
language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin,
property, birth or other status. Furthermore, no distinction shall be made on
the basis of the political, jurisdictional or international status of the country or
territory to which a person belongs, whether it be independent, trust, non-
self-governing or under any other limitation of sovereignty. "
Article 7 says:
"All are equal before the law and are entitled without any discrimination to
equal protection of the law."
Article 8 says:
Everyone has the right to an effective remedy by the competent national
tribunals for acts violating the fundamental rights granted him by the
constitution or by law.
Article 10 says:
Everyone is entitled in full equality to a fair and public hearing by an
independent and impartial tribunal, in the determination of his rights and
obligations and of any criminal charge against him.
Article 11 says:
Everyone charged with a penal offence has the right to be presumed
innocent until proved guilty according to law in a public trial at which he has
had all the guarantees necessary for his defence.
No one shall be held guilty of any penal offence on account of any act or
omission which did not constitute a penal offence, under national or
international law, at the time when it was committed. Nor shall a heavier
penalty be imposed than the one that was applicable at the time the penal
offence was committed.
484 / 545
Article 12 says:
No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family,
home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honor and reputation.
Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference
or attacks.
And Judge JACQUELINE CONNOR is intimately involved in all of these
frauds, in more ways than one.
I fully support the opinion that came to me in an anonymous letter from a
person who credibly described himself as an experienced criminal defense
attorney:
"The troubles that you have with Jacqueline Connor, however, sound very
familiar.....a former deputy prosecutor from the L.A. County District Attorney
Office, is a "Rampart Judge" from way back....while on criminal court bench,
Connor would confer with the D.A. behind the backs of defense attorneys in
order to find out ways to convict Defendants. She would intimidate
witnesses in her courtroom ... in order to convict people she disliked. Thus, I
imagine that she coordinated her activities with opposing counsel in your
case.
Connor was inappropriately assigned to hear the first case against the
Ramparts officers.,, It does not take an Einstein to see that Connor was
protecting herself and the other Rampart judges from disclosure."
And:
" My opinion is that she belongs in prison and not on the bench."

m) Requested: Support by the Audit Committee of BOA for efforts to


restore the access to public records of LA Superior Court.

Beyond corrective actions involving conduct of BOA itself, I hope that the
Audit Committee would find ways, as a committee or as individuals, to exert
influence and support efforts to restore human rights in Los Angeles, in
compliance with International Law. My goal is to effect the minimal
correction of conditions at the LA Superior Court that involve the operation of
fraudulent computer systems and hiding the records of such systems from
the public, where by law they are public records. Under current conditions,
the Audit Committee of Bank of America Corporation has the potential to
effect such changes. I hope that you would make decisions that would
reflect your concern for the rule of the law across the U.S. and the
preservation of civil rights that were achieve after many generations and are
on decline or gone in LA.

News Release by Joseph Zernik - 02-Mar-2009


Re: Bank of America Corporation (ticker: BAC, exchange: New York Stock Exchange)

DEMANDS FOR AUDIT COMMITTEE REVIEW & TIMED RESPONSE RE: ALLEGATIONS
OF SUB-PRIME BAILOUT ABUSE AT BANK OF AMERICA 2-Mar-09 12:02pm

Requests for review/ enforcement also pending before SEC

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LOS ANGELES, CA, Mar 02/ /-- In a letter to individual members of Bank of America Audit Committee,
Joseph Zernik, claiming to be victim of ongoing frauds by Countrywide*, now subsidiary of Bank of America,
and failure of corporate officers to respond to his previous requests for assistance. Zernik demands response of
either the committee as a whole, or the individual members, by March 10, 2009. Underlying matter is a real
estate dispute – in 2004 Zernik listed his Beverly Hills residence for sale. Buyer Nivie Samaan made an offer
and obtained Zernik’s assent to contract in September 2004 under false pretenses including, but not limited to,
the use of a fraudulent prequalification letter - as determined by fraud expert examination. Zernik canceled
escrow in October 2004 after Samaan failed to perform per contract relative to obtaining mortgage loans, would
not remove contingencies, and was caught engaging in alleged wire/fax fraud, where she impersonated
throughout the transaction her loan broker in fax communications with both Zernik and Countrywide, allegedly
– with the latter’s collusion.
In October 2005 Samaan filed complaint in LA Superior Court, and Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) was heard by
Judge Jacqueline Connor, best remembered for her performance in the First Rampart Trial (2000), where she
reversed jury verdict convicting corrupt LAPD police involved in large-scale framing resulting in the false
imprisonment of thousands of innocent people in Los Angeles, California. Zernik alleges that severe violations
of due process and multiple instances of fraud by Connor in collusion with Samaan’s counsel and Countrywide
as part of the litigation, are credibly evidenced through records of the court itself. Connor rendered Summary
Judgment for Specific Performance of the 2004 real property purchase contract based on fraudulent
Countrywide records, as opined by fraud expert. Such records were admitted by Connor as evidence in alleged
deliberate violation of due process and the evidence code. Multiple requests to stop the fraud, filed directly with
Angelo Mozilo, then President, and Sandor Samuels, then Chief Legal Officer of Countrywide in the months
preceding the summary judgment hearing, led only to alleged retaliation through collusion of Countrywide and
the Court, coordinated by Bryan Cave, LLP. The law firm has been appearing in court for almost two years
under the false self designation of Non-Party, while the Court interchangeably designates Countrywide
Defendant, Plaintiff, Cross-Defendant, Intervenor, all without adequate legal foundation.
After repeat disqualifications for a cause of Connor, the case changed hands, and in November-December
2007, Zernik’s property was taken for private use, under the threat of force, through coordinated actions of
judges including, but not limited to John Segal and Terry Friedman, with no compensation at all. Such actions
were perpetrated under the guise of execution of judgment, but without ever relying on the actual August 9,
2007 Judgment - rendered, but not entered by Judge Connor, without ever issuing a Writ of Execution, and
through reliance on fraudulent Grant Deeds, issued for the court by Att David Pasternak, as opined by expert
fraud examiner.
487 / 545
z Page 2/4 September 10, 2009
Zernik claims that Connor, Segal, Friedman and other judges involved in this case colluded with Countrywide,
including, but not limited to Angelo Mozilo, Sandor Samuels, and the Legal Department, and engaged in
racketeering under the guise of litigation. Zernik further claims that the preponderance of the evidence in his
case and in several other cases he has identified demonstrate a well- established Enterprise Track at the LA
Superior Court, where today, the Clerk of the Court, John A Clarke, and Presiding Judges, formerly Stephen
Czuleger and today Charles McCoy, refuse to certify the case as litigation in the Superior Court of California,
refuse to certify Judge Friedman, who still holds the file, as duly assigned to the case (none of the judges held an
Assignment Order), and refuse to certify the August 9, 2007 Judgment by Connor as a valid effectual judgment
of the Superior Court.
In December 2006, Zernik, who had no business with Countrywide, first realized that Countrywide had already
been involved in various frauds against him - by then for over two years. He initially attempted for a few
months to address the frauds through the Legal Department of Countrywide, only to realize that the Department
was the one who had coordinated the frauds in the first place. He then addressed both Angelo Mozilo, then
president, and Sandor Samuels, then chief legal officer, directly, with requests to stop the frauds being
perpetrated by Countrywide against him. Both officers then advertised their personal commitment to fight
frauds, and invited victims or informants to approach them. The response was a campaign of harassment/
intimidation/ retaliation against a victim/ witness/ informant, still ongoing today. Such conduct was coordinated
by Bryan Cave, LLP, appearing for almost two years in LA Superior Court as counsel for Countrywide, under
the false self-designation “Non-Party”. The Court interchangeably uses for Countrywide false designations of
“Defendant”, “Plaintiff”, “Cross-Defendant”, “Real Party in Interest”, etc – all with no legal foundation.
In anticipation of the Sub-Prime Bailout merger, Zernik gave notice to officers of Bank of America already in
February 2008. However, in the nine months since the July 1, 2008 merger of Countrywide with Bank of
America, such retaliation did not cease, on the contrary, it has been escalated. However, Bryan Cave, LLP
would no longer clearly identify its clients in the case, and so far has failed to file adequate corporate disclosure.
Office of Bank of America Timothy Mayopoulos, General Counsel, claims that Bryan Cave, LLP is not
authorized to appear in its name, yet no attempt has been made to stop such appearances, on the contrary – court
records evidence support by Bank of America of Bryan Cave, LLP actions. Neither Countrywide, nor Bank of
America filed any disclosure in this matter per Sarbanes-Oxley, section 307. Appeals to Bank of America’s
Ken Lewis, president, Timothy Mayopoulos, General Counsel, members of the board, and members of the
Audit Committee to this date remain unanswered.
Similarly, there is no indication that Bank of America has taken any corrective action so far regarding massive
fraud against the U.S. government, identified by Zernik already in a complaint filed with FBI in January 2007,
particularly at the wholesale branches of Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. Zernik alleges fraudulent use of large
systems such as EDGE for underwriting monitoring, which deceptively convey appearance of compliance with
Regulation B of the FRB, Fair Housing and Fair Credit laws, but allow underwriting in disregard of the law.
Starting December 2006, Zernik approached various local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies,
uniformly, all refused to even review the evidence. Credible evidence from FBI shows that the reason for such
refusal was the need to address allegations of widespread public corruption and racketeering – particularly in
real estate litigations – by a large group of judges, including the leadership of the LA Superior Court. Zernik
alleges that the court’s large computer systems, e.g., SUSTAIN, are the enabling tools of the racket in its current
manifestation, and that credible evidence is found in court records generated by the system. Such frauds are
facilitated by the combined abandonment of published rules of court and denial of access to digital litigation
records since the introduction of SUSTAIN around 1985 - in defiance of universally recognized basic human
rights. In August September 2008, Kenneth Melson, director, US Department of Justice, and Kenneth Kaiser,
assistant director, FBI, provided responses to inquiries by Senator Dianne Feinstein and Congresswoman Diane
Watson regarding failure of agencies to respond in this case. Such responses are deemed by Zernik false and
misleading. For example, Melson explained the conduct of U.S. Justice Department by making a false,
misleading, and derogatory statement that Zernik was complaining about foreclosure procedures.
488 / 545
z Page 3/4 September 10, 2009

Support of Zernik’s position in this case has come so far from retired Judge R William Schoettler, who in May
2007 reviewed the evidence in the case as Mediator and determined that Samaan had “no case at all”, fraud
experts Robert Meister and James Wedick, who reviewed key records in this case, and Prof Joseph Grundfest,
SEC former Chair, who after brief review of some records forwarded the case to SEC Enforcement. American
Homeowners Resource Center, an advocacy group supports Zernik’s cause, pointing out that the case, which
involved no foreclosure and no default at all, is a poster-child for the role of the courts in the current looting of
homeowners throughout the U.S. in collusion with lenders and lawyers as part of the Sub-Prime Crisis.
Zernik himself points out that his case provides the clearest evidence for the widespread corruption of the LA
Superior Court, and requires reevaluation of the Rampart scandal, where judge were claimed to have been
“duped” by corrupt police to enter false evidence. However, in Samaan v Zernik Judge Connor, who was the
central figure in the Rampart scandal, and also Judges Segal and Friedman, are alleged to have presided with no
Assignment Orders and no authority at all, to have entered false evidence in violation of the evidence code and
due process procedures, to have made rulings that were contrary to the law deliberately and without any
explanation, and to have generated false and deliberately misleading court records routinely. Zernik claims that
such allegations are credibly evidenced through the court records themselves.
Moreover, Zernik claims that the bigger looming disgrace is the ongoing incarceration of estimated (based on
PBS Frontline, 2001) 10,000 Falsely Imprisoned People (FIPs) in Los Angeles, mostly black and latinos, over
10 years after they were confirmed innocent in Rampart Scandal investigations. Such false imprisonments were
confirmed and re-affirmed in a series of official reviews, latest of which was the Blue Ribbon Review Panel
Report (2006), commissioned by the LAPD itself. The Rampart scandal (1998-2000) was described at the time
as the worst abuse of civil rights by police in the history of the U.S. But following Connor’s derailing of the
First Rampart Trial (2000) – all prosecutions of culprit police ceased, and the victims remained imprisoned. A
U.S. judge was appointed Overseer of civil rights in LA pursuant to the Consent Decree (2001), but his office is
deemed ineffective- it was scheduled to meet prescribed goals and close in 2006.
At present, Zernik has requests for review/corrective-action/enforcement pending before the audit committee
and individual members of Bank of America - William Barnet, III, John T Collins, General Tommy R
Franks, Walter E Massey, Thomas J May (Chair), Admiral Joseph W Frueher. Requests for
investigation/enforcement are also pending before congressional committees and SEC.
In summer 2008, Zernik filed with Judge Friedman, who is still holding the file today, “Notice to Cease and
Desist Racketeering” and ceased participation in any LA Superior Court proceedings of Samaan v Zernik
(SC087400). Regardless, Judge Friedman and Countrywide continued their proceedings, most recently entering
against Zernik on February 17, 2009 Judgment of Contempt, for the second time in two years, and again setting
sanctions, by now in excess of $30,000. The most recent charge was that by contacting the office of Bank of
America General Counsel, Timothy Mayopoulos, and obtaining information that Bryan Cave, LLP, was not
authorized to appear in court for Countrywide/Bank of America, Zernik violated a July 23, 2007 Order by Judge
Connor, yet to be discovered, which purportedly directed him to communicate only with Att Todd Boock , of
Countrywide’s Legal Department. The office of Mr Mayopoulos likewise instructed Zernik that the counsel
authorized to represent Bank of America/Countrywide in this case was only Book. But Boock claims that
Zernik is prohibited from communicating with him by court orders.
Complaint filed in March 2008 in U.S. District Court, LA, against LA Superior Court, its judges, Countrywide,
Mozilo, and Samuels – Zernik v Connor et al (2:2008cv01550) - was abandoned over half a year ago. Zernik
holds that the docket of the case, as seen on Pacer, both before and after the case was abandoned, is inexplicable
as litigation pursuant to either U.S. or International Law.
Requests were filed with international agencies to monitor the conduct of the courts in LA, California, in light of
severe, large-scale, long-term abuse of human rights of all 10 million residents of the most populous county in
the U.S., with inexplicable indifference by U.S. government agencies such as FBI.

09-09-02 In re: Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) demands for Clerk John Clarke’s compliance with
the law:
1) Demand to remove any reference to Samaan v Zernik (SC087400) from LA
Superior Court “Case Summaries” online;
2) Demand to ensure that no Deputy Clerk is present in purported Case Conference
on September 23, 2009, and
3) Demand that no Deputy Clerk enter any additional Minute Orders in John
Clarke’s name in Sustain under such caption.

Superior Court of California for the County of Los Angeles
< jclarke@lasuperiorcourt.org >
< 12136217952@efaxsend.com >
(by fax and by email)

Timely compliance with the law is demanded, no later than Friday, September 4, 2009, 5:00 pm

Mr Clarke:

I recently noticed that the “Case Summaries”1 of the LA Superior Court still carries
reference to matter of Samaan v Zernik (SC087400), moreover, a “Case
Conference” is listed there as a “Future Proceeding” on September 23, 2009. 2,3

You have continuously refused to certify the case as an Action of the Superior Court
of California, refused to certify Judge Terry Friedman as duly assigned Presiding
Judge (and there never was an Assignment Order on file either), and refused to
certify the August 9, 2007 Judgment as a Judgment of the Superior Court of
California.

Additional credible evidence demonstrated that such matter was never a valid
effectual action of the Superior Court of California. The Grant Deeds issued by Att
David Pasternak on behalf of the court, likewise, were opined by decorated FBI
veteran, fraud expert James Wedick as “fraud”. 4 Likewise, period reports issued by

1
“Case Summaries” are published by the LA Superior Court with a disclaimer (see Footnote #2) stating that such are not court
records, and should not be relied upon. In parallel, the LA Superior Court denies for the past quarter century public access to the
Registers of Actions – which are public records by law (see Footnote #3). Therefore, the “Case Summaries”, which should not be
relied upon, are the only non-record available to the public.

493 / 545
z Page 2/2 September 2, 2009

Att David Pasternak are primary evidence of the alleged racketeering predicated
acts of monetary transactions in property derived from specified unlawful activity. 5
There simply is no explanation within the realm of the law for the ongoing conduct of
the court and Att David Pasternak.

For lack of better term, I refer to Samaan v Zernik (SC087400), and other similar
cases, such as Galdjie v Darwish (SC052737), 6 as the “Enterprise Track” of the
LA Superior Court. Upon review by a competent court of jurisdiction, such cases
surely would be deemed racketeering pursuant to RICO - Racketeer Influenced
and Corrupt Organizations Act 18 USC §1961-8.

Additional cases, which carry substantial public policy interest, and are likely be
designated “Enterprise Track”, where I could not make final determination as a
result of denial of access to records, 7 included:

a) Sturgeon v LA County (BC351286)

Under such caption the court purported to review the question of payments to
judges that were ruled “not permitted” by the California Court of Appeals, and
were labeled by media “bribes”.

Although it remains unclear whether the case as a whole is “Enterprise Track”


case, surely what is represented as judgments by Justice Richman were false
and deliberately misleading records, as detailed in the motion for Mistrial which I
filed in court.8

b) Marina v LA County (BS109420)

Under such caption, the court purported to review the question of land development
in the Marina area. Although it remains unclear whether the case as a whole is
“Enterprise Track” case, surely what was represented as March 4, 2009 Judgment
for the jailing of Att Richard Fine was false and deliberately misleading record, as
detailed in letter of meet and confer sent to attorneys for the court and for the
sheriff.9

As you know, I am pressing for investigation of Samaan v Zernik, given the


extraordinary public policy interests inherent in it:

a) Relative to alleged racketeering by Sandor Samuels and Countrywide


Financial Corporation (CFC), as the underlying context for the current
financial crisis, still never addressed after the merger with Bank of America
Corporation (BAC).

Imprisoned Persons), as a result. It calls for new assessment of the reasons
for their false convictions and false sentencing by judges like Jacqueline
Connor, an aspect of the scandal that was entirely ignored in the official
investigation (1998-2000), which placed the blame entirely on the LAPD.

RE: Request for a public written statement, as a "Farewell Address" by Admiral Joseph W Frueher, upon departure from the BAC Audit Committee

Copied below is my request, addressed to Stanford Law faculty, for peer-review of an Affidavit (Dkt #10) provided by Prof Joseph Grundfest in proceedings of SEC v BAC
cv-06829), at the U.S. District Court, Manhattan. Links, provided at the footnotes of that message, are to the Affidavit record itself, and separately - to a September 2, 2
letter addressed to Prof Grundfest and counsel for SEC and BAC in the proceedings in question, requesting that the Affidavit be either re-written or altogether withdrawn.

I likewise request that you, and a separate request is forwarded to Admiral Joseph Frueher, provide a public written statement - a "Farewell Address" - as culmination of yo
duties, upon departure from the BAC Audit Committee. [1]

The recent changes in the roster of the BAC Audit Committee, were only one indicator of the transformation of BAC during the period that the two of you served on the Au
Committee, with the mergers with Countrywide Financial Corporation ( CFC) and with Merrill Lynch as the hallmarks. Regarding the former merger - BAC was granted a wai
deposit limits, and your input is requested as to the prudence of such waiver from national security perspective. Regarding the latter merger, NY Attorney General Andrew
Cuomo wrote the April 23, 2009 letter to the U.S. Senate, [2] which led to calls in media for criminal indictments of both BAC and U.S. officers, including Ben Bernanke - Cha
the FRB, and Kenneth Lewis - Chair of BAC. Matters were described in such letter that would have required review by the BAC Audit Committee, and separately - by U.S.
regulatory agencies.

There is no public evidence of any such review by regulatory agencies. Likewise, in my September 2, 2009 letter, I reference complaints filed with SEC, FBI, and other regu
agencies, starting January 2007 - of credibly evidenced material violations of the law by officers holding direct reporting duties at Countrywide Financial Corporation (CFC),
subsidiary of BAC. All such agencies refused to investigate the complaints. There is no evidence that BAC attempted to enforce compliance at its CFC subsidiary. On the
contrary, the evidence shows that BAC after the merger knowingly allowed conduct that would be deemed in violation of the law to proceed.

In contrast, the Affidavit (Dkt #10) stated that BAC was a "highly regulated" financial institution.

Concerns are that such affidavit, and the approval of a Proposed Settlement before the Court in the proceedings of SEC v BAC, would convey the impression of effective
regulation of BAC, that could be relied upon by the U.S. and world financial markets to avoid unreasonable risks.

I would be grateful for your response in this matter, no later than Tuesday, September 8, 2009, 5:00 pm, so that I may incorporate it in my letter to the Honorable Jed Rak
U.S. Judge.

No doubt, you realize that the matter pertains to the long-term peace and welfare of the U.S. no less than any military or naval endeavor.

09-09-04 Request to access court records to Inspect and to copy


Terry Nafisi
District Court Executive and Clerk of Court
(by email and by priority certified mail, restricted delivery)
312 N. Spring Street, Room G-8
Los Angeles, California 90012
terry_nafisi@cacd.uscourts.gov

Timed response requested by September 17, 2009, 5:00pm.

Clerk Nafisi:

Please accept this letter as my request to access court records to inspect and to copy pursuant
to Nixon v Warner Communication, Inc (1978), where the U.S. Supreme Court re-affirmed
the Common Law and First Amendment rights to access judicial records to inspect and to
copy.

This request pertains specifically to NEFs (Notices of Electronic Filings) including any
digital stamps, or digital signatures, encrypted as series of numbers and characters, which
may be embedded in such NEFs of various records in the following cases:

1) Zernik v Connor et al (2:08-cv-01550), and

2) Fine v Sheriff Department of LA County (2:09-cv-01914).

I have previously requested access to ECF/CM, where such NEFs are viewable, in a motion
in Zernik v Connor et al. Such request was denied. Instead I was referred by the court to
Pacer as a way to access court records to inspect and to copy. However, my access through
Pacer does not provide any way to view the NEFs of any of the records in the two cases listed
above.

Please let me know ASAP when and where I will be allowed access to court records, listed
above, to inspect and to copy.

Enclosed is also the record of our communications in the past two months. We are yet to
cross the line where you allow those who communicate on your behalf to:

a) Identify their professional qualifications as Clerk Deputy – or not, and

b) State that they were communicating on your behalf.

Regardless of what you consider a dialogue of two months that can’t get any further than that
– a reasonable person is likely to consider it simply as denial of access to court records.

Therefore, please be noticed - Ongoing posting of false and deliberately misleading records is
harmful. Please either have such records marked clearly as invalid, so that a layperson would

500 / 545
z Page 2/2 September 4, 2009

not mistake them for anything else. Alternatively – entirely remove them from the online
docket.

I am also yet to hear your response in re: the various abuses noted in my request for
investigation.
Time is of the essence, response - alternatively action to mitigate damages is requested by ,
September 17, 2009, 5:00 pm. My fax and email information are provided below.

Clerk Nafisi:

May I ask again - Please - if you do not wish to respond yourself, the person responding in
your name should state that they are assigned, or were requested to respond in your name.
Otherwise, I request that the person identify themselves also by the legal authority. The way I
know it, there are only two types of authorities for this matter: 1) Executive/Clerk, and 2)
Deputy Clerk. The other titles are administrative ranks, etc, and irrelevant to my questions. I
need to know that the person I am talking with is: a) assigned by you to respond, and b) is
duly authorized by law to engage in clerk issues.

Thanks for your understanding, I do not like to be difficult, but there is no way that I can tell
what the other titles mean, and as stated previously, we are dealing with a situation where
there were breaches of authority relative to clerk's functions, by Donna Thomas, to the best of
my knowledge.

09-08-20 U.S. District Court –Los Angeles, follows the example of LA Superior Court – denying
access to records
August 20, 2009

RE: U.S. District Court, Los Angeles, followed the example of LA


Superior Court - and repeatedly denied Party's right to access court
records - to inspect and to copy.
Calling upon U.S. Congress to carefully monitor the appointment of
new head of FBI office, Los Angeles, in view of alleged widespread
corruption of the courts in Los Angeles, California.
Executive Summary
Correspondence copied below documents ongoing denial of access to court records in the
past month by the office of the Clerk/Executive of the U.S. District Court, LA, Terry Nafisi. The
records that are the subject of the requests for access are the digital signatures that are the
attestation/authentication of court records in CM/ECF - one of the dual docketing systems
(the other one being Pacer) by now practically fully implemented at the U.S District Courts
and U.S. Courts of Appeals. Such dual docketing systems are separate and unequal, and are
used by the U.S. courts to segregate parties in violation of Human Rights pursuant to ratified
International Law. it is incomprehensible what justification that is even remotely related to
furtherance of justice could be found for the expenditure of precious resources to establish
such travesty of due process. As discussed below, it is suspected that such dual docketing
systems enabled additional alleged criminality and abuse relative to the conduct of captions
Zernik v Connor et al (2:08-cv-01550) and Fine v Sheriff Dept of LA County (2:09-Cv-01914),
which were suspected to have been invalidated most likely from day one, yet involved the
enlargement of parties alleging severe abuse of Civil Rights under the Color of Law by State
of California judges in Los Angeles, in sham court actions at the U.S. District Court- LA -
additional severe violation of Human Rights. Both captions were most likely invalidated as
court cases from day one. The denial of access to records of attestation/ authentication is
most likely an attempt by the Clerk of the U.S District Court, LA, Terry Nafisi, to cover-up such
suspected criminality by Magistrate Carla Woehrle and various staff members of the Clerk's
office. Of note, complaints were filed with FBI Los Angeles office regarding the conduct of
Zernik v Connor et al in mid 2008, but there was no indication of any follow up by FBI on the
matter.
Almost identical alleged criminality was noted in recent weeks by the Court of Judge Richard
J Leon and Clerk of the Court Mr David Scott, U.S Court, Washington DC, in relationship to
caption of Zernik v Melson et al (1:09-cv-00805).
The common features of all three captions listed above - they all stem from what is alleged to
be widespread criminality that amounts to alleged racketeering by judges of the LA Superior
Court. Furthermore, the conduct of such captions represents the alleged collusion and cover-
up of such criminality by U.S. Courts and senior officers of U.S Department of Justice and
FBI.
U.S. Congress is called upon to carefully monitor the appointment of the new head of FBI
Office, Los Angeles. The remarkable turnaround at CIA should be the guiding example. FBI
must become part of the solution, not part of the problem.
U.S. Congress is called upon to press for enforcement of Rule Making Enabling Act on all
case management systems of the U.S. Courts - since such systems are large aggregates of
Rules of Courts in programming languages, yet Rules of Courts they are nevertheless.
U.S Congress is called upon to press for enforcement of Nixon v Warner Communications,
Inc (1978) - the right to access court records to inspect and to copy - on court records in such
computerized systems.

504 / 545
z Page 2/2 August 25, 2009

U.S. Congress is called upon to immediately secure public access to court records in LA
County, California, through the appointment of a Special Counsel, as proposed below, or
through any other feasible method within the law.
Conditions in Los Angeles County, California, amount to severe violations of Human
Rights by the U.S. Government, of historic proportions, in violation of ratified
International Law.

The U.S. Constitution, Art. IV §I declares,


Full faith and credit shall be given in each state to the public acts, records and judicial
proceedings of every other state. And congress may by general laws prescribe the manner in
which such acts, records and proceedings shall be proved, and the effect thereof.
By the U.S. Act of May 26, 1790, it is provided,
That the act of the legislatures of the several states shall be authenticated by having the seal
of their respective states affixed thereto: That the records and judicial proceedings of the
courts of any state shall be proved or admitted, in any other court within the United States, by
the attestation of the clerk, and the seal of the court annexed, if there be a seal, together with
a certificate of the judge, chief justice or presiding magistrate, as the case may be, that the
said attestation is in due form. And the said records and judicial proceedings, authenticated
as aforesaid, shall have such faith and credit given to them, in every court within the United
States, as they have, by law or usage, in the courts of the state from whence the said records
are, or shall be taken.
It looks more and more likely by the hour, that the U.S. District Court LA engaged in alleged criminality
in both Zernik v Connor et al and Fine v Sheriff Department of LA County, and that the essence of
such alleged criminality was in the issuance of ineffectual court records, but concealing the fact that
such records were ineffectual by: First -- during litigations - through failure to notice and serve the
attestations on Pro Se Plaintiffs, Joseph Zernik and Richard Fine, respectively, who were excluded
from access to CM/ECF. Second, now- through denial of access to the attestations, as a lame attempt
to cover up such alleged criminality.

Such alleged criminality had to involve a large group of judges, clerks, and attorneys, and it was
enabled by the dual docketing systems created by the U.S. Courts - Pacer, and CM/ECF, separate
and unequal, and the segregation of parties into such systems by the U.S. Courts.

Conditions reflected in the denial of access to court records to party in litigation, first demonstrated in
recent weeks in LA Superior Court, and now at the U.S. District Court, LA, evidence the regression of
LA County Courts (at a time that the LAPD has shown substantial progress in compliance) to what
may be comparable to early post-medieval period as far as court integrity and compliance with Due
Process. In parallel, it widespread criminality at the courts is alleged. The Common Law right to
access such records, the public record status of court records, as well as the segregation of authorities
of the judicial and ministerial arms of the court - all of which were basic safeguards for the integrity of
the courts, found their origin at that historic period. And such basic safeguards are now directly
undermined by the courts.

Such regression of the courts was enabled by the introduction of computerized case management
systems in the courts, with no public oversight, and the deliberate failure by the courts to recognize
that such systems had to be treated as Rules of Court, and their installation had to involve compliance
with the Rule Making Enabling law, State, or Federal, respectively. Likewise, the courts had to
recognize that court records in such systems were subject to Nixon v Warner Communications, Inc
(1978), where the U.S Supreme Court re-affirmed the right to access court records to inspect and to
copy, as anchored in Common Law right that is older than the U.S. Constitution, in First, Sixth, and
Fifth/Fourteenth Amendments rights.

One should also note that such conditions were allowed to evolve with the full knowledge of senior
U.S. Department of Justice officers under the Bush administration. Request was filed over a year ago -
for the appointment of a Special Counsel, pursuant to 28 CFR §600, with a short-term, limited and well
circumscribed mandate - to secure public access to public court records at the LA County Courts, to
investigate and if necessary prosecute those who abuse the Civil and Human Rights of the 10 million
residents of LA County by denying such access to court records. It was recommended that FBI NOT
be relied upon in any such actions, and that units from Dept of Treasury, which captured the
505 / 545
z Page 3/2 August 25, 2009

computers of failing banks, be relied upon instead. It was estimated that the critical phase of such
operation could last overnight, or at most over a weekend, and that public access could be secured,
from court locations terminals only, within 1-2 weeks, and with that - bringing to fruition the core
mandate of such Special Counsel. It was also recommended that in parallel - "Truth and
Reconciliation Commissions" be instituted, since such records are likely to expose widespread
criminality of the judiciary in LA County.

U.S. Department of Justice failed to respond.

When inquiries were issued by U.S. Congress - the Honorable Diane Feinstein and Dianne Watson
on my behalf, senior U.S. Officers of the U.S Department of Justice, who are Kenneth Kaiser and
Kenneth Melson, issued responses that must be deemed upon review fraud and criminality by senior
U.S. Officers of the Justice Department.

Therefore on May 1, 2009, complaint was filed in U.S. Court, Washington DC "to compel U.S. Officers
to perform their duties". Zernik v Melson et al (1:09-cv-00805) was initially assigned to Judge Richard
J Leon, but request for disqualification was immediately filed, based on service of the judge as minority
counsel on related issue that is discussed in the complaint.. The handling of Zernik v Melson et al by
Judge Richard J Leon and Clerk of U.S Court DC, Mr David Scott, was almost exact repeat of the
conduct of Magistrate Carla Woehrle at the U.S. District Court , Los Angeles - severe abuse and
alleged perversion of justice and denial of access to the court, to fair trial, and denial of the right to file
papers in court.
Most recently - request was filed for access to authentication records of the U.S. Court, Washington
DC. No response was received so far. The handling of caption Zernik v Melson et al at the U.S. Court,
Washington DC deserves its own negotiation by the Public Integrity Unit of the Justice Department.

Notice must be taken of the fact that the appointment of Mr Leon Panetta led to what appeared as
expedient turn around at CIA in re: compliance and truthfulness in reporting to U.S. Congress.
Implementing similar measures at FBI and U.S. Department of Justice is long overdue. Yesterday,
August 19, 2009, news was released that Salvador Hernandez, who headed the FBI's Los Angeles
office, was retiring to take a job in the private sector.

o U.S. Congress is called upon to carefully monitor the appointment of the new head of
FBI Office, Los Angeles. The remarkable turnaround at CIA should be the guiding
example. FBI must become part of the solution, not part of the problem.

o U.S. Congress is called upon to press for enforcement of Rule Making Enabling Act
on all case management systems of the U.S. Courts - since such systems are large
aggregates of Rules of Courts in programming languages, yet Rules of Courts they
are nevertheless.

o U.S Congress is called upon to press for enforcement of Nixon v Warner


Communications, Inc (1978) - the right to access court records to inspect and to copy
- on court records in such computerized systems.

o U.S. Congress is called upon to immediately secure public access to court records in
LA County, California, through the appointment of a Special Counsel, as proposed
below, or through any other feasible method within the law.
Conditions in Los Angeles County, California, amount to severe violations of Human Rights by
the U.S. Government, of historic proportions, in violation of ratified International Law.

Terry Nafisi
Clerk of the Court/Executive
U.S. District Court, Los Angeles

Dear Clerk Nafisi:

It is now close to a month since my first phone inquiries with the office of the Clerk/Executive, U.S.
District Court, Los Angeles, as part of my ongoing efforts to access my own litigation records, to
inspect and to copy. It is now 20 days since my first recorded written request was forwarded to you in
the same matter. As shown below, you so far failed to respond to my requests, and staff of the U.S.
District Court, Los Angeles, attempted to deny my rights to access such records to inspect and to
copy, on various false grounds.

The writer of the most recent response from U.S. Courts, California Central District, Dawn Bullock, like
Ms Danlyn Castellanos before her, responded to messages addressed to you, but failed to state that
she did so with your authorization. Moreover, Ms Bullock's position title failed to include the ministerial
"Clerk" in it, and she also failed to visibly copy you on her response.

Needless to say, I find such combination of facts of concern, particularly on the background of
complaint I filed recently with you, regarding conduct of Ms Donna Thomas at the Chamber of
Magistrate Carla Woehrle. I believe that Ms Thomas was not a Deputy Clerk, and that she engaged in
various transactions on U.S. District Court records that she was not authorized to engage in, and that
such transactions were likely upon review to be deemed as part of efforts to obstruct and pervert
justice in Zernik v Connor et al and Fine v Sheriff Department of LA County.

Both cases involved allegations of widespread corruption of LA Superior Court judges, both involved
allegations of severe abuse of civil and human rights by the judges of the LA Superior Court, and both
were allegedly perverted at the court of Magistrate Carla Woehrle.

Therefore, I would not directly address the message below, dated August 19, 2009, from Ms Bullock,
unless I am re-assured that such communication and the ones from Danalyn Castellanos before it,
were forwarded to me with your authorization and reflected your positions on the matters at hand.

In case the opinions which were expressed by Ms Dawn Bullock indeed reflected your position on my
request to access U.S. District Court records - to inspect and to copy, I request that you provide
authorities, since the opinions expressed in Ms Bullock's note on their face were false, legally invalid,
and defied reason.

Furthermore, if communications below were authorized by you, I request that you also provide a brief,
simple language explanation for the following three questions:

1) Why was I denied service of such court records in Zernik v Connor et al, during litigation, when all
other parties were served such records?

2) What reason(s) could lead the Executive/Clerk of U.S. District Court to deny today my right to
access - to inspect and to copy - the digital authentication/endorsement by the Clerk of the Court of
records of Zernik v Connor et al (2:08-cv-015550), purportedly a court litigation where I was named
Plaintiff? Could any such reason(s) be even remotely related to administration justice in compliance
with the law? Could any such reason(s) be even remotely related the furtherance of justice?
507 / 545
z Page 5/2 August 25, 2009

3) In case the responses from Ms Bullocks and Ms Castellanos, copied below, were indeed
authorized by you:
Please provide a reasonable explanation why I would have been allowed access to the requested
records, had I agreed to skip my right to inspect, and agreed instead to rely on your good offices to
produce copies, but my right to access the records would be denied if I insist on my right to inspect the
records before accepting copies produced by the court, but now am told I would be denied access to
the same records, after I insisted on my right to inspect, prior to accepting copies produced by your
good offices.

I expect a response by 5:00 pm today, Thursday, that would allow me to access the records
tomorrow, Friday, August 21, 2009. As stated before, the denial of access to the requested court
records may be deemed abuse of Common Law right to access such records, as well as abuse of the
right to access such records as part of First, Fifth, and Sixth Amendment rights, as re-affirmed by the
U.S. Supreme Court in Nixon v Warner Communications, Inc (1978),

Thanks for your timely care of the matter.

Joseph Zernik

Both of the below cases were filed electronically so there are no paper
documents and you can use the public terminals located in the Records
Department to view these files. All documents filed in the case are
available. You do not need to make an appointment and you do not need to
inform anyone of when you are coming in. Anyone may come to the Records
Department and use the public terminal to view a case file. There is no
fee to view these Records. If you would like copies of anything you may
either purchase regular copies from our copy service or certified copies
from the Records Department.

What needs to be researched is the NEF because the NEF is not part of the
case file itself. Also, in your letters you raise more issues than just
viewing the record.

Subject Request by party to access his own


litigation records, which the
court failed to ever notice him of
508 / 545
z Page 6/2 August 25, 2009

- to inspect and to copy.

August 19, 2009

Terry Nafisi
Clerk of the Court/Executive
U.S. District Court, Los Angeles

Dear Clerk Nafisi:

Let me try to simplify the request. I am not asking your office to


research anything at all.

I am asking the office of the Clerk of the Court to allow me access to


public records that are my own litigation records. Our correspondence
shows that on July 31, 2009 I made my first request to access my own
litigation records at the U.S. District Court, LA in Zernik v Connor et al
(2:08-cv-01550), where I am named Plaintiff, as they appear in CM/ECF
docket. By law, I am permitted to appear anytime during business hours at
the Office of the Clerk, and request to see such records, and the Office of
the Clerk is required to allow me such access.

I would like to believe that my right to inspect such records is not


doubted by your office. Please advise me if I am wrong in such belief.

Once I see the records, I will decide if I would like to obtain copies, and
I will pay accordingly.

Do I have to pay to exercise my right to inspect my own court records which


the court failed to notice or serve me, while noticing and serving all
other parties? Please cite authorities for fees for such inspection by
party of his own litigation records.

If I came to the clerk's office during business hours, and asked to see the
paper court file of Zernik v Connor et al (2:08-cv-01550), would I have to
pay $26.00 first as well?

Similarly, in Fine v Sheriff Department of LA County (2:09-Cv-01914) the


U.S. Court of Appeals, 9th Circuit accepted my request for being designated
party in interest. Therefore, the same logic applies.

Please be advised that I intend to appear on Friday, August 21, 2009 during
business hours, and request to access the records listed above and in
previous communications, to inspect and to copy. Please let me know if
there is any particular preferred time for addressing such request by your
office.

Any further delays in allowing me access to my own litigation records would


likely be deemed as violation of my rights.

Joseph Zernik

You are yet to utter a word regarding integrity of operations at BAC. But then

4) Attorneys for SEC:


In case BAC Attorneys fail to produce such valid effectual order, I demand that
SEC immediately initiate an investigation into alleged perversion of justice, and
other predicated acts, allegedly sufficient for indictment on RICO charges,
related only to this one fabrication -- now in its 3rd year, of the following
individuals:
1) ATT SANDOR SAMUELS, BAC
2) ATT TODD BOOCK, BAC
3) ATT SANFORD SHATZ, BAC
4) ATT JENNA MOLDAWSKY, BRYAN CAVE, LLP
5) ATT JOHN AMBERG, BRYAN CAVE, LLP
It is alleged that the five attorneys above conspired with others to use such
fabrications to obstruct and pervert justice, including, but not limited to two false
OSC contempts filed by Bryan Cave, LLP, and resulting transfers of moneys that
amounted to money laundering, and were transacted in relationship to such
fabricated OSC contempts with ATT DAVID PASTERNAK.
In case SEC refuses to take any regulatory action, I demand an explanation.

5) Prof Joseph Grundfest:


This exchange of messages provided good perspective on the strength of the
BAC Audit Committee's strongest presumable former independent members,
who have left by now - Tommy Franks, who, as we see was easily duped by the
BAC legal team, and Admiral Frueher, who remains silent.

This message exchange also demonstrated that in the U.S. 2009, there was and
there is no recourse for an individual against an allegedly racketeering
corporation like BAC or CFC at the Courts. Therefore, it must be deemed
essential for Equal Protection, and also for integrity of operations of the
corporations that Government Regulatory Agencies like SEC demonstrate
consistent and effective efforts to stop any racketeering by senior management
at the legal department, such as Sandor Samuels, to enforce the law, and to
protect individuals from criminality by corporations. Until the merger, Mr Samuels
was engaging in the alleged racketeering while holding direct reporting duty to
SEC.
513 / 545
z Page 3/13 September 5, 2009

The idea that a corporation could be engaging in honest accounting, while


engaging in criminality in the area of Human Rights, is entirely deluded.
Provisions of Sarbanes Oxley Act, (2002) were stipulated specifically to
eradicate such crooked logic. And there was nothing more demonstrative of the
fallacy of such logic, than the history of LA County in the past 2 decades.
Accordingly, the Basel Accords, as well, requires that a financial institution
comply with the law in all parts of the law, not only in accounting.

Based on this whole exchange, I also request that Prof Grundfest please provide
by Monday, 5:00 pm a brief opinion, by bullets only, if time does not permit more
than that, for public review by his peers:

a) Is BAC indeed a "highly regulated" entity?

b) Should SEC engage in enforcement when it becomes aware of credible


evidence of alleged perversion and obstruction of justice, over a period of two
years, including numerous predicated acts per RICO, by the legal department of
a large financial institution?
I am offering preliminary evidence in the records below under 5.b)

c) Same as b) with the added condition that the Legal Department in question
has a track record of some years, previously noted by the courts, of similar
conduct.
I am offering the evidence in the records below under 5, c):

d) How would he explain SEC's failure and refusal to enforce the law at the
Legal Department of BAC up to this date?

General Tommy Franks:

Getting back to your last statement: Whether it was you, or an employee


on your behalf, let me repeat my demand that you produce a copy of a
valid, effectual Restraining Order within 48 hours, or retract your false
statement. And let me add to it also the demand that you produce a valid
Dismissal Order of a Complaint, or retract that statement as well.

Otherwise, it appeared that you entirely forgot that the focus of the Audit
Committee was on the integrity of operations. Could you please make
any statement whatsoever, on that aspect of Bank of America
Corporation operations?

Could you, for example explain who provided you with the false
information that you repeated yesterday?

Finally - could you provide any reason why the Audit Committee failed to
review complaints?
Sarbanes Oxley Act (2002) says that the Audit Committee had to do so
pursuant to set procedures.
Did you ever have any such procedures?
Did you ever review any complaints?
What was the reason you never reviewed my complaints?

Even without my complaints, there was sufficient public evidence of


routine alleged wrongdoing of the Legal Department of Countrywide in
the courtrooms across the U.S. [1] [2] It lead the Honorable Jeff Bohm,
Houston Texas to state in March 2008, that Countrywide Legal
Department and their outside counsel:"have shown a disregard for the
professional and ethical obligations of the legal profession and
judicial system." [2]

Did BAC ever try to enforce compliance at the Legal Department headed by Sandor
Samuels?

I hope that you could make some statement regarding Integrity of Operations at
Countrywide and Bank of America Corporation under your watch, that would regenerate
some credibility.

Joseph Zernik

CC:
1) Admiral Joseph Frueher - Hoping that he could make any statement regarding
integrity of operations at BAC and CFC under his watch, to assist the General.
2) Attorneys for BAC - Hoping that they could explain the fabrication of the Restraining
Order, and who originated it.
3) Attorney for SEC - Hoping that they could shed some light on any enforcement efforts
in view of public information of wrongdoing by the Legal Department of Countrywide.
4) Basel Committee - As support for a request for observers delegation.
5) Chinese Embassy to the U.S. - As evidence of non-effective U.S. Banking
Regulation, that still has not changed a bit.

Your statement below is false and deliberately misleading. And to

Subject: Re: request

Sir/Madam:

Thank you again for the quick response. Your statement is


somewhat lacking. You are not identified by name, or for that matter
by position, or by authority to make a statement such as the one
below on behalf of General Franks. If General Tommy Franks could
just date and sign the statement that you wrote below, which would
take no more than a few seconds of his time, that would be perfectly
fine. However, as you stated yourself in a previous message, so far,
he was not inclined to state anything in writing.

Otherwise, regarding the statement below: I wonder specifically if it


could extended to include something along the lines of "...including
the conduct described in NY Attorney General Andrew Cuomo's
April 23, 2009 letter to U.S. Senate". For your convenience, I again
linked the letter below.

As a U.S. resident, a tax payer, and a Bank of America Corporation


share-holder, and a citizen, I hope that General Tommy Franks
would not duck down on this one.

Subject: Request for a public written statement, as a "Farewell Address" by General Tommy Franks,
upon departure from the BAC Audit Committee
September 3, 2009

Sir/Madam:

Thank you for your quick response. Your response demonstrated the exact reason for my request. I
am a member of the public at large, in addition, I am also a share holder at Bank of America
Corporation. I am no attorney to define the exact extant of General Franks' duties. However, it seems
to me that events took place under his watch, which should have been reviewed by the Audit
Committee and publicly reported to both investors and the public at large. Refusing to make any
statement at all, in a matter the holds substantial risks to both share-holders and the public at large, is
inconsistent with his duties.

However, I was approaching General Franks not from a legal perspective, but as a retired general,
who served this country for many years. The case bears substantial risk to the U.S. economy and to
stability of world financial markets. I was calling upon him, and also upon Admiral Joseph Frueher to
make such statements in the spirit of Dwight D Eisenhower - as an important service to their country.

I hope that you would be able to reach General Tommy Frank, and that he would be able to make
even the shortest statement on the record relative to what his perspective is relative to compliance,
effective regulatory actions, and integrity of operations, as he saw them during his tenure on the Bank
of America Audit Committee. Refusal to make any statement at all may be seen by the public at large
as "taking the Fifth" - as used in lay person's language.

The timing is critical, given the pending court proceedings.

Joseph Zernik

RE: Request for a public written statement, as a "Farewell Address" by Admiral Joseph
W Frueher, upon departure from the BAC Audit Committee

Copied below is my request, addressed to Stanford Law faculty, for peer-review of an


Affidavit (Dkt #10) provided by Prof Joseph Grundfest in proceedings of SEC v BAC
(1:09-cv-06829), at the U.S. District Court, Manhattan. Links, provided at the footnotes of
that message, are to the Affidavit record itself, and separately - to a September 2, 2009
letter addressed to Prof Grundfest and counsel for SEC and BAC in the proceedings in
question, requesting that the Affidavit be either re-written or altogether withdrawn.

I likewise request that you, and a separate request is forwarded to Admiral Joseph
Frueher, provide a public written statement - a "Farewell Address" - as culmination of
your duties, upon departure from the BAC Audit Committee. [1]

The recent changes in the roster of the BAC Audit Committee, were only one indicator of
the transformation of BAC during the period that the two of you served on the Audit
Committee, with the mergers with Countrywide Financial Corporation ( CFC) and with
Merrill Lynch as the hallmarks. Regarding the former merger - BAC was granted a waiver
on deposit limits, and your input is requested as to the prudence of such waiver from
national security perspective. Regarding the latter merger, NY Attorney General Andrew
Cuomo wrote the April 23, 2009 letter to the U.S. Senate, [2] which led to calls in media
for criminal indictments of both BAC and U.S. officers, including Ben Bernanke - Chair of
the FRB, and Kenneth Lewis - Chair of BAC. Matters were described in such letter that
would have required review by the BAC Audit Committee, and separately - by U.S.
regulatory agencies.

There is no public evidence of any such review by regulatory agencies. Likewise, in my


September 2, 2009 letter, I reference complaints filed with SEC, FBI, and other regulatory
agencies, starting January 2007 - of credibly evidenced material violations of the law by
officers holding direct reporting duties at Countrywide Financial Corporation (CFC), now a
subsidiary of BAC. All such agencies refused to investigate the complaints. There is no
evidence that BAC attempted to enforce compliance at its CFC subsidiary. On the
contrary, the evidence shows that BAC after the merger knowingly allowed conduct that
would be deemed in violation of the law to proceed.
In contrast, the Affidavit (Dkt #10) stated that BAC was a "highly regulated" financial
institution.

Concerns are that such affidavit, and the approval of a Proposed Settlement before the
Court in the proceedings of SEC v BAC, would convey the impression of effective
regulation of BAC, that could be relied upon by the U.S. and world financial markets to
avoid unreasonable risks.

I would be grateful for your response in this matter, no later than Tuesday, September 8,
2009, 5:00 pm, so that I may incorporate it in my letter to the Honorable Jed Rakoff, U.S.
Judge.

No doubt, you realize that the matter pertains to the long-term peace and welfare of the
U.S. no less than any military or naval endeavor.

Links are provided below for the Affidavit referenced above [1], and for a letter I

filing such paper in proceedings where there is no publicly visible summons and
no publicly visible Assignment to a Judge, and with no party filer appearing on the

09-09-04 In re: Zernik v Melson et al (1:2009cv00805) – Demand to mitigate damages:


1) Mark invalid court records as such, or 3) Remove a false docket from public
view, no later than September 17, 2009
September 4, 2009
Ms Nancy Mayer-Whittington
Clerk of the Court
Fax: 202-354-3067
Fax: 202-354-3067

Your timely response or action is requested no later than September 17, 2009

Ms Mayer Whittington:
The Court mailed me about a month ago a “conformed” copy of my ex parte
application (Dkt #9). 1 Combined, the copy, and the docketing of that record,
again evidenced the invalidity of the records that the Clerk of the Court
docketed online under such caption. Details were provided in the footnote.
The handling of such papers was doubly offensive, since the application itself
was for an order to allow me access to NEFs, after access was denied.
Inspection of the NEFs would be the only way to conclusively establish if any
of the papers under this caption was ever a valid court record at all.
In Nixon v Warner Communications, Inc (1978) the U.S. Supreme Court re-
affirmed the Common Law and First Amendment rights to access court
records, to inspect and to copy. Therefore, I should have been allowed to
come during working hours and request access to inspect (that means here –
to inspect the original digital records of the NEFs in CM/ECF online from a
courthouse terminal), and to copy (obtain either digital and/or paper copies).
So far that was denied. Upon review an international court of Human Rights
may conclude that the conditions of the justice system established in the U.S.
Courts with the completion of the installation of the Pacer versus CM/ECF
dual, segregated access systems, are classic “shell game fraud”, on the
largest scale ever.
Your handling of my case caused me great harm so far: Yesterday, I
received a note from a person who self-represented as a speaking for
General Tommy Franks, or could be General Franks himself - former member
of the Audit Committee of Bank of America Corporation. I demanded an
explanation why the BAC Audit Committee never reviewed my complaints
regarding the conduct of the Legal Department of CFC.
Details of such conduct were included in papers that were filed in Court, but
were abused and subjected to an unrecognizable procedure, that was never

1
“Conformed” copy of Plaintiff’s ex parte application for access to court records (Dkt #9), as
received by mail from the court:

evidenced in the docket. 2 It was your responsibility to ensure that my papers


would be handled in accordance with the law, and not by some ad-hoc made-
up procedure-of-the-day.
Did you approve the procedures that my papers were subjected to?
To start out, it was your duty to ensure that each paper be stamped one way
or another on its face when it comes into the Clerk’s possession. The
disregard for such basic duty of the Clerk is evidenced in my “conformed”
copies of the ex parte applications (Dkt #9), which were stamped “Received” on the
back of the last page.3
Was such practice, of stamping records on their backs, authorized by
you?
The online copy, on the other hand, bears no stamp at all.
Was the docketing of record #9 approved by you?

General Tommy Franks, responded (it appeared after consultation with BAC
Legal Department) that my “complaints were dismissed by court…”
My complaint was never dismissed, I am yet to view an NEF that would attest
that any of the records on the docket in Melson v Zernik et al had any validity
as court records to start out. A paper that was never a valid court paper in
the first place, could not be dismissed. Moreover, as far as the specific record
of the July 29, 2009 “Order” (Dkt #8) 4-- I consider it an invalid court record on
its face.
Did you approve its docketing the way it appear now?
To a large part – I consider it invalid, because no clerk colluded in what
would likely be deemed an attempt to mislead – the way it was received by
me by mail. 5
However, a layperson, who may view the online docket in Pacer, even an
intelligent one, like General Tommy Franks, would likely be mistaking it for a
valid Order.6
Of note, that docket entry was done by KC, and not by JF, the docketing staff.
If I remember KC correctly, he was involved in some dishonesty early on, as
well, and he was a Law Clerk, not a Deputy Clerk.
Was KC authorized by you as to make such docket entries in the first
place?

Face pages of the records that were eliminated from the docket with no foundation in the law,

As Clerk of the Court it is your personal responsibility that none of this would
happen.
Please let me know within 10 days, no later than September 17, 2009, how
you would like to address such alleged corruption of trial court litigation
records.
Reasonable resolutions could be:
a) Marking the docket of Melson v Zernik as invalid as a whole, in a way
that would be visible in Pacer by a layperson with no effort, or
b) Removing it from Pacer and CM/ECF altogether.
Regardless, continued posting of false and deliberately misleading records by
the Clerk of the U.S. Court, particularly one in Washington DC, is likely to be
deemed as severe violation of Human Rights per ratified International Law.
Likewise, you may be deemed the offender.

Subject: Demand for the "Legal Team of BAC' to produce by Monday, September 7, 2009, 5:00pm,
the "Restraining Order" that they informed General Tommy Frank about. Request for Prof Grundfest to
propose remedial action .
Bcc:

1) General Tommy Frank:


It was you who made that false statement, not the Legal Team of BAC. Please
retract your statement if you cannot produce the document.
You are yet to utter a word regarding integrity of operations at BAC. But then
again, you gave us a show and tell.

2) Attorneys for BAC:


I am forwarding this note to Attorneys for SEC and BAC, with a demand that
BAC Attorneys produce for General Franks, who was duped by them, the
"Restraining Order" by Monday, September 7, 2009, 5;00 pm.

4) Attorneys for SEC:


In case BAC Attorneys fail to produce such valid effectual order, I demand that
SEC immediately initiate an investigation into alleged perversion of justice, and
other predicated acts, allegedly sufficient for indictment on RICO charges,
related only to this one fabrication -- now in its 3rd year, of the following
individuals:
1) ATT SANDOR SAMUELS, BAC
2) ATT TODD BOOCK, BAC
3) ATT SANFORD SHATZ, BAC
4) ATT JENNA MOLDAWSKY, BRYAN CAVE, LLP
5) ATT JOHN AMBERG, BRYAN CAVE, LLP
It is alleged that the five attorneys above conspired with others to use such
fabrications to obstruct and pervert justice, including, but not limited to two false
OSC contempts filed by Bryan Cave, LLP, and resulting transfers of moneys that
amounted to money laundering, and were transacted in relationship to such
fabricated OSC contempts with ATT DAVID PASTERNAK.
In case SEC refuses to take any regulatory action, I demand an explanation.

5) Prof Joseph Grundfest:


This exchange of messages provided good perspective on the strength of the
BAC Audit Committee's strongest presumable former independent members,
who have left by now - Tommy Franks, who, as we see was easily duped by the
BAC legal team, and Admiral Frueher, who remains silent.

This message exchange also demonstrated that in the U.S. 2009, there was and
there is no recourse for an individual against an allegedly racketeering
corporation like BAC or CFC at the Courts. Therefore, it must be deemed
essential for Equal Protection, and also for integrity of operations of the
corporations that Government Regulatory Agencies like SEC demonstrate
consistent and effective efforts to stop any racketeering by senior management
at the legal department, such as Sandor Samuels, to enforce the law, and to
protect individuals from criminality by corporations. Until the merger, Mr Samuels
was engaging in the alleged racketeering while holding direct reporting duty to
SEC.

The idea that a corporation could be engaging in honest accounting, while


engaging in criminality in the area of Human Rights, is entirely deluded.
Provisions of Sarbanes Oxley Act, (2002) were stipulated specifically to
eradicate such crooked logic. And there was nothing more demonstrative of the
fallacy of such logic, than the history of LA County in the past 2 decades.
Accordingly, the Basel Accords, as well, requires that a financial institution
comply with the law in all parts of the law, not only in accounting.

529 / 545
z Page 6/13 September 5, 2009

Based on this whole exchange, I also request that Prof Grundfest please provide
by Monday, 5:00 pm a brief opinion, by bullets only, if time does not permit more
than that, for public review by his peers:

a) Is BAC indeed a "highly regulated" entity?

b) Should SEC engage in enforcement when it becomes aware of credible


evidence of alleged perversion and obstruction of justice, over a period of two
years, including numerous predicated acts per RICO, by the legal department of
a large financial institution?
I am offering preliminary evidence in the records below under 5.b)

c) Same as b) with the added condition that the Legal Department in question
has a track record of some years, previously noted by the courts, of similar
conduct.
I am offering the evidence in the records below under 5, c):

d) How would he explain SEC's failure and refusal to enforce the law at the
Legal Department of BAC up to this date?

Subject: Demand that General Tommy Franks provide the
documentation within 48 hours for his statement about a Restraining
Order, or retract it as false.
September 4, 2009

General Tommy Franks:

Getting back to your last statement: Whether it was you, or an employee


on your behalf, let me repeat my demand that you produce a copy of a
valid, effectual Restraining Order within 48 hours, or retract your false
statement. And let me add to it also the demand that you produce a valid
Dismissal Order of a Complaint, or retract that statement as well.

Otherwise, it appeared that you entirely forgot that the focus of the Audit
Committee was on the integrity of operations. Could you please make
any statement whatsoever, on that aspect of Bank of America
Corporation operations?

Could you, for example explain who provided you with the false
information that you repeated yesterday?

Finally - could you provide any reason why the Audit Committee failed to
531 / 545
z Page 8/13 September 5, 2009

review complaints?
Sarbanes Oxley Act (2002) says that the Audit Committee had to do so
pursuant to set procedures.
Did you ever have any such procedures?
Did you ever review any complaints?
What was the reason you never reviewed my complaints?

Even without my complaints, there was sufficient public evidence of


routine alleged wrongdoing of the Legal Department of Countrywide in
the courtrooms across the U.S. [1] [2] It lead the Honorable Jeff Bohm,
Houston Texas to state in March 2008, that Countrywide Legal
Department and their outside counsel:"have shown a disregard for the
professional and ethical obligations of the legal profession and
judicial system." [2]

Did BAC ever try to enforce compliance at the Legal Department headed by Sandor
Samuels?

I hope that you could make some statement regarding Integrity of Operations at
Countrywide and Bank of America Corporation under your watch, that would regenerate
some credibility.

Joseph Zernik

CC:
1) Admiral Joseph Frueher - Hoping that he could make any statement regarding
integrity of operations at BAC and CFC under his watch, to assist the General.
2) Attorneys for BAC - Hoping that they could explain the fabrication of the Restraining
Order, and who originated it.
3) Attorney for SEC - Hoping that they could shed some light on any enforcement efforts
in view of public information of wrongdoing by the Legal Department of Countrywide.
4) Basel Committee - As support for a request for observers delegation.
5) Chinese Embassy to the U.S. - As evidence of non-effective U.S. Banking
Regulation, that still has not changed a bit.

Sir/Madam:

Thank you again for the quick response. Your statement is


somewhat lacking. You are not identified by name, or for that matter
by position, or by authority to make a statement such as the one
below on behalf of General Franks. If General Tommy Franks could
just date and sign the statement that you wrote below, which would
take no more than a few seconds of his time, that would be perfectly
fine. However, as you stated yourself in a previous message, so far,
he was not inclined to state anything in writing.

Otherwise, regarding the statement below: I wonder specifically if it


could extended to include something along the lines of "...including
the conduct described in NY Attorney General Andrew Cuomo's
April 23, 2009 letter to U.S. Senate". For your convenience, I again
linked the letter below.

As a U.S. resident, a tax payer, and a Bank of America Corporation


share-holder, and a citizen, I hope that General Tommy Franks
would not duck down on this one.

September 3, 2009

Sir/Madam:

Thank you for your quick response. Your response demonstrated the exact reason for my request. I
am a member of the public at large, in addition, I am also a share holder at Bank of America
Corporation. I am no attorney to define the exact extant of General Franks' duties. However, it seems
to me that events took place under his watch, which should have been reviewed by the Audit
Committee and publicly reported to both investors and the public at large. Refusing to make any
statement at all, in a matter the holds substantial risks to both share-holders and the public at large, is
inconsistent with his duties.

However, I was approaching General Franks not from a legal perspective, but as a retired general,
who served this country for many years. The case bears substantial risk to the U.S. economy and to
stability of world financial markets. I was calling upon him, and also upon Admiral Joseph Frueher to
make such statements in the spirit of Dwight D Eisenhower - as an important service to their country.

I hope that you would be able to reach General Tommy Frank, and that he would be able to make
even the shortest statement on the record relative to what his perspective is relative to compliance,
effective regulatory actions, and integrity of operations, as he saw them during his tenure on the Bank
of America Audit Committee. Refusal to make any statement at all may be seen by the public at large
as "taking the Fifth" - as used in lay person's language.

The timing is critical, given the pending court proceedings.

Joseph Zernik

RE: Request for a public written statement, as a "Farewell Address" by Admiral Joseph
W Frueher, upon departure from the BAC Audit Committee

Copied below is my request, addressed to Stanford Law faculty, for peer-review of an


Affidavit (Dkt #10) provided by Prof Joseph Grundfest in proceedings of SEC v BAC
(1:09-cv-06829), at the U.S. District Court, Manhattan. Links, provided at the footnotes of
that message, are to the Affidavit record itself, and separately - to a September 2, 2009
letter addressed to Prof Grundfest and counsel for SEC and BAC in the proceedings in
question, requesting that the Affidavit be either re-written or altogether withdrawn.

I likewise request that you, and a separate request is forwarded to Admiral Joseph
Frueher, provide a public written statement - a "Farewell Address" - as culmination of
your duties, upon departure from the BAC Audit Committee. [1]

The recent changes in the roster of the BAC Audit Committee, were only one indicator of
the transformation of BAC during the period that the two of you served on the Audit
Committee, with the mergers with Countrywide Financial Corporation ( CFC) and with
Merrill Lynch as the hallmarks. Regarding the former merger - BAC was granted a waiver
on deposit limits, and your input is requested as to the prudence of such waiver from
national security perspective. Regarding the latter merger, NY Attorney General Andrew
Cuomo wrote the April 23, 2009 letter to the U.S. Senate, [2] which led to calls in media
for criminal indictments of both BAC and U.S. officers, including Ben Bernanke - Chair of
the FRB, and Kenneth Lewis - Chair of BAC. Matters were described in such letter that
would have required review by the BAC Audit Committee, and separately - by U.S.
regulatory agencies.

There is no public evidence of any such review by regulatory agencies. Likewise, in my


September 2, 2009 letter, I reference complaints filed with SEC, FBI, and other regulatory
agencies, starting January 2007 - of credibly evidenced material violations of the law by
officers holding direct reporting duties at Countrywide Financial Corporation (CFC), now a
subsidiary of BAC. All such agencies refused to investigate the complaints. There is no
evidence that BAC attempted to enforce compliance at its CFC subsidiary. On the
contrary, the evidence shows that BAC after the merger knowingly allowed conduct that
would be deemed in violation of the law to proceed.
In contrast, the Affidavit (Dkt #10) stated that BAC was a "highly regulated" financial
institution.

Concerns are that such affidavit, and the approval of a Proposed Settlement before the
Court in the proceedings of SEC v BAC, would convey the impression of effective
regulation of BAC, that could be relied upon by the U.S. and world financial markets to
avoid unreasonable risks.

I would be grateful for your response in this matter, no later than Tuesday, September 8,
2009, 5:00 pm, so that I may incorporate it in my letter to the Honorable Jed Rakoff, U.S.
Judge.

No doubt, you realize that the matter pertains to the long-term peace and welfare of the
U.S. no less than any military or naval endeavor.

Subject: Time is of the essence! Peer review of Prof Grundfest Affidavit (Dkt #10) in
SEC v BAC (1:09-cv-06829) and related questions.
Bcc:

September 7, 2009

To: Stanford Law Faculty

From: Joseph Zernik

RE: Peer review of Prof Grundfest Affidavit (Dkt #10) in SEC v BAC (1:09-cv-
06829) and related questions. Time is of the essence, since letter to the
Honorable Jed Rakoff is due by the deadline of September 9, 2009.

Your response or comments are requested in re: the following matters:

1) Peer review of Prof Grundfest Affidavit (Dkt #10) in SEC v BAC (1:09-cv-06829) in
support of Proposed Settlement, in particular the statement that Bank of America
Corporation was a "highly regulated" entity.

2) Public records that both Prof Grundfest and SEC were fully aware of, e.g under
Borrower William Parsley Houston, TX (4-05-bk-90374) , Dkt# 256-260, provided
credible evidence of various alleged criminalities by Countrywide Financial
Corporation, and later - by Bank of America Corporation, and of refusal by SEC to
enforce the law.

538 / 545
z Page 2/2 September 7, 2009

3) The U.S. Courts have installed a dual docketing system, Pacer, and CM/ECF,
separate and unequal, where the courts can segregate parties at will. Those
segregated into Pacer are unable to distinguish the valid and effectual court records
from the large volume of invalid and ineffectual records posted online, since they are
denied access to the NEFs (Notices of Electronic Filings). Conducting litigations
under such conditions may be found by International Human Rights Courts to be
extreme violation of Human Rights by the U.S. Government and U.S. Courts, and the
largest ever "shell game" fraud.

I would be grateful for a timely response by individuals faculty members, or group(s),


regarding the matters above.

09-09-08 Demand for Clerk Clark to stop alleged collusion in the fabrication in re: A fictitious
“Protective Order” and in its use for alleged obstruction and perversion of justice.

September 8, 2009

John A Clarke
Executive Officer/Clerk of the Court
Superior Court of California for the County of Los Angeles
< jclarke@lasuperiorcourt.org >
< 12136217952@efaxsend.com >
(by fax and by email)

Timely response demanded, no later than Friday, September 11, 2009, 5:00 pm

Clerk Clarke:

Please accept this letter as a demand that you provide notice, no later than Friday,
September 11, 2009, 5:00 pm: Whether or not the file of Samaan v Zernik
(SC087400) included a valid and effectual “Protective Order”, or “Restraining Order”
by Judge Jacqueline Connor dated on or about July 23, 2007.

If such order existed, demand is that you produce a copy, and certify it as a valid,
effectual order of the Superior Court of California, for the County of Los Angeles.1

As explained in adjoining letter, so far you have refused to certify the case as a
whole - as a case of the Superior Court of California, you have refused to certify
Judge Terry Friedman – as a duly assigned Presiding Judge (he holds no
Assignment Order), and you have continuously refused to certify any order or
judgment in the case as such. In short – your conduct was consistent with the rest
of the evidence – that the case was never a true case of the Superior Court of
California.

The purported “Protective Order”, or “Restraining Order” would have been by law a
public record. Yet it was never noticed, it was never found in copies of court file, and
it was never produced in response to specific requests delivered to your office (see
below). In short – there was and there is no evidence of its existence.

And yet, Countrywide Financial Corporation (CFC) and Bank of America


Corporation (BAC) in Samaan v Zernik, engaged in various alleged violations of the
law based on the fabrication that such fictitious, order existed, including, but not
limited to, the purported issuance of two (2) judgments of Contempt.

1
Upon notice that the order existed, I would contact your office and provide CC information for the
certificate.
540 / 545
z Page 2/6 September 8, 2009

Such alleged violations of the law under CFC directly involved Sandor Samuels,
who noticed himself as “Person in Interest” in instant case. 2 Moreover, he was then
Chief Legal Counsel, holder of direct reporting duty.

Such violations of the law under BAC directly involved Officers such as Kenneth
Lewis - CEO/Chair, Joe Price – CFO, and Timothy Mayopoulos – General Counsel,
all holders of reporting duties, who were repeatedly noticed of the alleged perversion
and obstruction of the law taking place in their name at the LA Superior Court, but
refused to take action to stop such alleged perversion.

Ongoing refusal of your office to respond in any way at all in this matter, would likely
to be deemed upon review as alleged collusion by omission in various violations of
the law by CFC and BAC. Yet such omission must eventually be taken for what it
really is – reflection of the non-existence of the fiction of a “Protective Order” or
”Restraining Order”.

Needless to say – it could not exist, since the case a whole was ineffectual, it could
nto exist, since the party appearing in motions to ask for it were illegitimate “Non
Parties” represented by Counsel who was not authorized to appear. But beyond it
all – Judge Connor clearly marked in the Register of Actions their appearances as
invalid “off the record” appearances, both on July 6, 2007, and also on July 23,
2007. 3Therefore, she would not have issued an effectual order. The fact that such
events took place, required investigation in and of itself.

I have written to you or to the Office of the Clerk a number of times in the past two
years, in requests of the same nature. Your office has failed to respond at all.

The reason I am writing to you again, is that in the past week, the issue of the
fictitious “Restraining Order” or “Protective Order” gained entirely new significance,
in undermining the credibility of General Tommy Franks, and with it – the Audit
Committee of BAC. 4

Register of Actions, copy of November 14, 2008:
a) Appearance of CFC on July 6, 2007 was marked “Proceedings not Recorded”, on page 58,
twice.
b) Appearance of CFC on July 23, 2007 was listed as part of the text of an altogether different
“Event”- “Motion to Expunge Lis Pendens”. pp 72-74. Accordingly, on p 74 there was no
adjudication at all for the purported Motion for Protective Order. Under “Event Complete”, the
only adjudication listed is for Motion to Expunge Lis Pendens.
c) In between, on July 9, 2007, p 59, Judge Connor recorded a hearing that purportedly took
place “telephonically”, but in fact never took place in reality… There is no transcript of the sort.
d) In between, on July 12, 2007, p 65-69, Judge Connor recorded a back-dated, invalid Answer
of a Judge to Disqualification for a Cause, which was entered on July 23, 2007, later than the
10 days allowed by law. It was also invalidly entered – through Certificate of Mailing and
Notice of Entry by a judge for herself… to one party only, who never received it by mail
either…the Deputy Clerk for some reason refused to cooperate.

September 2009 - General Tommy Franks correspondence in re: Integrity of Operations at BAC, or
lack thereof:
http://inproperinla.com/09-09-04-general-tommy-franks-correspondence-in-re-integrity-of-operations-
at-bac-s.pdf
541 / 545
z Page 3/6 September 8, 2009

General Franks was presumed to be one of the stronger independent former


members of the BAC Audit Committee. In email correspondence, he first refused to
provide any statement on the record, whatsoever, regarding Integrity of Operations
at BAC. Later, he excused his refusal with a claims of “Restraining Order” against
me, purportedly in Samaan v Zernik. Finally, when face with demand to either
produced such order or retract his statement, he did neither.

Clerk Clark, you have allowed the fabrication of a “Restraining Order” or a


“Protective Order” to proceed now into its third year:

For over two years, you allowed CFC and BAC to file papers under an invalid party
designation of “Non Party”, including, but not limited to “Motions for OSC Contempt”.
Such extreme measures were entirely based on the fabricated, fictitious “Protective
Order” or “Restraining Order”.

For over two years, you also allowed Terry Friedman to continue conducting
“proceedings”, with no Assignment Order, in a case that you refused to certify as a
case of he Superior Court of California, based such “Motions”5, 6 which were invalid
on their face. 7 None of these “proceedings” could have taken place absent
participation of Deputy Clerks.

For over two years, the Office of the Clerk of the Court also continuously refused to
produce a certified copy of the purported “Protective Order”/ “Restraining Order”
when requested to do so, by me directly, or through legal services providers. 8,9, 10

Such conduct is likely to be deemed extreme abuse of Human Rights, upon review
by a competent court of jurisdiction. You, as an individual, are likely to be deemed
one of the major offenders.

In sum, the case of the so far never documented “Protective Order” was an extreme
that demonstrated the nature of the “case” as a whole – alleged abuse of Human
Rights under the guise of court action.

“Protective Order”:
