Real Pitchforks in Richmond



UPDATE: Real pitchforks in Richmond

Washington Examiner:
02/10/09 4:18 PM EST
The letter below was delivered to members of the Virginia General Assembly by an ad hoc group that calls itself The Pitchfork Rebellion - which is opposed to the reappointment of two Circuit Court judges. The group stormed down to Richmond today with real pitchforks.
To Whom It May Concern:This letter is to convey our serious concerns about the process by which judges are selected in the Commonwealth of Virginia and the condition of our judiciary.We are a group of citizens from across the Commonwealth of Virginia. We have come together to oppose the re-appointment of Judge Finch to the Fairfax County Circuit Court and Judge Hauler to the Chesterfield Country Circuit Court.As dutiful citizens, we have attempted to follow this process as closely as possible as well as actively and meaningfully participate in the process. However, we have been, for the most part, shut out of the process and deliberately silenced. We decry Judge Hauler’s attempt to quell public opposition to his re-appointment by means of a $5.35M lawsuit against his former clerk and his recent written threat to sue his neighbor Brenda Stewart, who has also spoken out publically against him. We are gravely concerned that Judge Finch apparently lied to the Courts of Justice Committee during his second judicial interview on January 10, 2009 when asked about the landmark school re-districting case Pascale et al vs. Fairfax County School Board.When questioned about this important case by Senator Cuccinelli, Judge Finch said he was unprepared to hear the case at trial. However, Judge Finch told the legislators the reason was that he had been assigned to the case only ten minutes before trial as an excuse. However, the official record of action in this case clearly shows Judge Finch was assigned the case three full weeks before trial and had ample opportunity to review the case before trial.We’ve enclosed an audio CD of Judge Finch’s second judicial interview in which you will hear judge Finch make that assertion as well as the official record of action. We applaud Senator Martin, Senator Cuccinelli and Senator Marsden for taking the citizen complaints against these judges seriously and acting responsibly.We denounce Delegate Vivian Watts, who chaired the second judicial interview of Judge Finch, for refusing to allow a private citizen to read the one page statement of an indigent man named Wesley Smith, who alleged that Judge Finch violated his Constitutional rights and deprived him of all the elements of a fair trial. When the private citizen persisted and again asked to speak, Delegate Watts only allowed her 30 seconds to read the statement, interrupted her several times and did not let her finish.We are very disappointed the local Chesterfield delegation completely ignored Judge Hauler’s serious problems on and off the bench and decided in favor of politics as usual and endorsed Judge Hauler. This is an abject dereliction of duty and a serious breach of the public trust. We hope that when additional information about Judge Hauler’s record becomes available this week, that the Chesterfield delegation will re-examine their position and vote responsibly in the full committee vote.We believe a strong and independent judiciary is indispensible to the rule of law. We are governed by the principle that all should be treated fairly in the courtroom. We adhere to the great philosopher Plato’s dictum that justice is giving every man his due. The absence of justice is the unenlightened darkness of a cave. We are contacting you today to petition that you not re-reappoint Judge Finch and Judge Hauler to judicial office.
While the Pitchfork Rebellion of 1685 was unsuccessful, we are better organized and have a very powerful weapon: the truth. Ours is a peaceful struggle to ensure that our jurists obey the laws of the Commonwealth, uphold and defend the Constitution and firmly adhere to the Rules of the Virginia Supreme Court. And if our judges fail to do so, our elected officials ought to hold them accountable.The pitchfork in the famous 1930 American painting “American Gothic” represents hard work. We represent hardworking ordinary Virginians from across the state who rely on our judiciary and who, frankly, deserve better than Judge Finch and Judge Hauler. The pitchfork itself is often used to remove manure from the barns, turn over the soil and uproot weeds from the earth. Today, we call upon you, our elected officials, to clean up the judiciary and weed out bad judges: exercise your legislative mandate by pitching Judge Finch and Judge Hauler.

This process in Virginia is so inherently flawed. We let the local legislators pretty much decide on each judge. Yet for the most part the local legislators are attorneys who practice before this particular judge and have a conflict of interests. In almost all cases, the local delegates vote in favor of a judge because they are afraid of the fallout to their legal careers if they oppose a judge.

Keep up the good work, Pitchfork Rebellion. Judges James Almand and Esther Wiggins-Lyles in Arlington, VA have arguaably participated in a lot of dubious decisions, some people would even call their behavior on the bench arrogant and skirting the letter and intent of the law itself. May all the citizens of Virginia be vigilant and bring bad Judges to account for their poor performance. Don't be bashful about demanding they be jettisoned from their benches. Expose their misdeeds. Make them accountable.

Feb 11, 2009
Hurray for the Pitchfork Rebellion! The judiciary system in Northern Virginia is corrupt to the core. Judges make rulings according to who has the most money, not who has the strongest case. Their decisions from the bench can have devestating ruselts, especially where they involve the custody of children.

Feb 12, 2009
Thank you CWES for pointing out Judge Almand and Judge Wiggins-Lyles. We are aware of a pattern of very bad decisions with both of them. Judge Joe Ellis and Judge Avelina Jacob also need to be pitched off the bench. This is only the beginning...

Feb 12, 2009
Thank you, Pitchfork Rebellion. I would be happy to go to Richmond with you, especailly when Wiggins-Lyle and Almand are up for reappointment.

Feb 15, 2009
The sad part is Finch and Hauler are not the exception. There are bad judges all over the commonwealth, but instead of trying to fix the problem, Chief Justice Hassell blocked the General Assembly from seeing their performance evaluations. What is he hiding? VA is one of only 2 states that appoints judges by the legislature. Because judges aren’t elected, they’re not accountable to the citizens. Complaints against judges—just like Finch--have been ignored for years. VA citizens have no voice except http://vacriminaljustice.webs.com/.

Separation of Powers and the Rise of the Judiciary

Separation of Powers and the Rise of the Judiciary
By Elizabeth Haring • Jul 28th, 2009 • Category: Law and Justice

Only one Federal judge has been impeached in the last twenty years.Although Virginia’s Judicial Inquiry and Review Commission receives over 1,400 complaints about judges annually, The Virginia Supreme Court has only removed two judges since 1971.
While the Virginia Constitution grants the legislature the power to impeach a judge, it has never been done.

The first hundred years of colonial American government gave rise to a dominant legislative branch. Legislatures evolved to the point where they routinely interfered in judicial matters. For example, colonial legislatures would issue edicts requiring the courts to re-hear cases that had been adjudicated, overturn creditor’s judgments, stay executions and reverse settled decisions. Historian Gordon Wood described the assemblies of the 18th century as, “a kind of medieval court making private judgments as well as public law.”
Legislative dominance troubled the founding fathers, particularly James Madison who described the legislature in The Federalist 48 as a department which is, “everywhere extending the sphere of its activity and drawing all power into its impetuous vortex.” Virginia’s Constitution demarcated the separation of powers, but in reality the legislature often usurped judicial power. Thomas Jefferson complained that the Virginia legislature had, “in many instances, decided rights which should have been left to judiciary controversy…”
The founding fathers’ concerns translated into many of the Constitution’s enumerations and limitations on power. The doctrine of separation of powers is summed up in the Federalist 47, “the preservation of liberty requires that the three great departments of power should be separate and distinct.”
Not long after the Constitution was ratified, Congress encroached on the judiciary’s power. In 1791, Congress passed a law providing that disabled Revolutionary War veterans apply to Federal Circuit Courts for pension determinations. However, this law granted the Secretary of War the power to deny pensions that had been approved by the courts. The US Supreme Court unanimously declined to review the pension applications, reasoning that for the courts to render judgments subject to review by Congress violated the separation of powers. This marked the first time the high court struck down an act of Congress. The Hayburn decision, the underlying case, is considered by the modern Supreme Court to reflect a proper understanding of the role of the Judiciary under the Constitution.
Over time, the judiciary has evolved to become very powerful. One indication of the immense power of the modern judiciary is the tenure of judges. Only one Federal judge has been impeached in the last twenty years.
Although Virginia’s Judicial Inquiry and Review Commission receives over 1,400 complaints about judges annually, The Virginia Supreme Court has only removed two judges since 1971.
While the Virginia Constitution grants the legislature the power to impeach a judge, it has never been done.
During the 2009 legislative session, Del. Carrico introduced a bill providing that if a sitting district court judge is convicted of a felony or class 1 misdemeanor during his term of office and all rights of appeal have been exhausted, his term will expire 30 days after the commencement of the next General Assembly regular session. Del. Carrico’s bill was defeated.
Last year, Virginia Supreme Court chief justice Leroy Hassell, Sr. issued two court orders to the Chairman of the Courts of Justice Committees commanding them to restrict access to the Judicial Performance Evaluations. Members of the legislature questioned whether the chief justice had any authority over them. A power struggle ensued between the two branches of government, causing some judicial candidacies to remain in abeyance for weeks. Representatives of the Virginia Supreme Court and the General Assembly got together and ultimately agreed to the chief justice’ demand to keep judicial performance evaluations confidential.
Del. Janis and Sen. Cuccinelli introduced companion bills limiting the Chief Justice of the Virginia Supreme Court to two consecutive terms. Their attempt to check the power of Virginia’s chief jurist also failed. Another noteworthy piece of legislation this session was Del. Loupassi’s bill HB1804 requiring the General Assembly to approve retired judges for temporary recall by the Chief Justice of the Virginia Supreme Court. HB1804 was also defeated.
Two bills were introduced that would transfer authority over the judicial performance evaluation program to the legislature and require the Survey, Evaluation and Research Lab to provide the evaluations directly to the legislature. Both failed. Unable to gain control over the Judicial Performance Evaluation program through legislative means, the Virginia General Assembly essentially killed the program by cutting its funding.
Resolution of the dispute between the judicial and legislative branches over authority of the Judicial Performance Evaluation program has important public policy considerations and the conflict surrounding it underscores the need for separation of powers. Not only is involving two branches of government in the Judicial Performance Evaluation program impractical, the great political philosopher Montesquieu warned that when the judicial and legislative powers are joined, the life and liberty of citizens is exposed to arbitrary control because judges become the legislators.
The recent struggles between Virginia’s judicial and legislative branches, the many failed legislative attempts to check the judiciary’s power, and the seeming impossibility of removing judges is indicative of how powerful Virginia’s judiciary has become over the past two hundred years.
It’s a far cry from the days of old when Virginia’s legislature interfered in judicial matters and was the dominant branch of government. The Virginia General Assembly’s recent moves indicate the legislature now recognizes how power has shifted toward the judicial branch and how critical it is to the proper functioning of government to have a balance of powers not only in theory but in practice.

Virginia Judges to be impeached by the House of Delegates

Constitution of Virginia
ARTICLE I
Bill of Rights


A DECLARATION OF RIGHTS made by the good people of Virginia in the exercise of their sovereign powers, which rights do pertain to them and their posterity, as the basis and foundation of government.

Section 17. Impeachment.The Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General, judges, members of the State Corporation Commission, and all officers appointed by the Governor or elected by the General Assembly, offending against the Commonwealth by malfeasance in office, corruption, neglect of duty, or other high crime or misdemeanor may be impeached by the House of Delegates and prosecuted before the Senate, which shall have the sole power to try impeachments.

How Corrupted Virginia Judicial system picks judges



Richmond times - Dispatch


Virginia is one of only two states in which the legislature elects judges. Legislators say the system works well, despite the potential for political favoritism.
But there is a groundswell of discontent among Virginia residents who find the system mysterious and impenetrable. They have appealed to legislators, but they're now broadening their crusade for a wholesale evaluation of the judicial-selection process.
"I'm inflamed by what I've seen, over what's happened the last six months," said Bruce Bennett, a Fairfax County resident who traveled to Richmond to oppose a Fairfax County judge's re-election.


The residents -- who call themselves the "Pitchfork Rebellion" -- started as litigants who were displeased with the way a judge handled their case. But as they tried to work their complaints through the proper channels, they grew increasingly frustrated by what they perceive as a closed, often secretive system.
Recently, others have raised questions about the process -- people who have watched it closely for years, including the former delegate who is now the Republican nominee for governor.


University of Richmond law professor Carl Tobias wrote in the University of Richmond Law Review last December that the legislative infighting has become so severe that the General Assembly might consider another method of electing judges.
Full story is here

How Virginia picks judges
Input:
The legislature's House and Senate Courts of Justice committees interview candidates in public meetings and make recommendations to the full House and Senate.
Election: If the committees agree, the names go to the full assembly of 40 senators and 100 delegates for a vote.


Impasse: If the full assembly cannot agree on a candidate, a judgeship can go unfilled and the governor may appoint a judge.
Re-election: Lawmakers on the courts committees take into consideration evaluation forms filled out by lawyers who practice before the judges.

How states pick judgesThe 50 states use a variety of methods. • Commission-based appointments • Partisan elections • Nonpartisan elections • A combination of commission-based appointments and partisan or nonpartisan elections • Gubernatorial appointments • Legislative appointments or elections SOURCE: American Judicature Society

Let the People Judge the Judges

Let the People Judge the Judges: Reforming Virginia's Judicial Selection Proces.
by: Donald D. Litten
For Virginia Business
The writer is a Harrisonburg attorney in practice since 1957.

Judicial selection in the States is an important, diverse, and controversial process. State judges impact every arena of life with their decisions, from traffic to criminal court. And through this century, the debate has persisted over what is the best way to select these judges. In Virginia, the state constitution gives the General Assembly the right to choose judges, one of very few states to use this method. Most of the other states use some form of popular election or gubernatorial appointment. "To outsiders, Virginia's system of lawmakers electing judges looks quirky and even unfair, a cloistered system of good ol' boys looking out for each other." Perhaps there is a reason that Virginia is in by far the minority on the judicial selection issue. There are too many flaws in a system that gives the legislature exclusive power to appoint and remove judges at its pleasure. Virginia's system as it is now is "a highly partisan process that Democrats had lorded over while they were in power, and one that state Republicans seem to be relishing now that they're in the majority." Virginia needs to rethink the way it chooses its judges. more

Two Pennsylvania county judges stand accused of sending thousands of teenagers to juvenile prison in exchange for $2.6 million in bribes from the privately run detention facilities. If convicted, the judges could face up to seven years behind bars. But what happens to everyone the allegedly corrupt judges have sentenced over the years? Do they get their convictions overturned? more..........

Why Does Dave Albo hate Women???????




When another legislator's wife complained that she was being discriminated against due to her gender. What was Delegate Albo's response?
"There's no such thing as workplace harassment." "Complaint Targets State Senator," Richmond Times-Dispatch, 7/19/06.


Over the years, Delegate Dave Albo has not been hospitable to women's issues. For example, last year, when a female judicial applicant complained when now former Sen. Nick Rerras cross-examined her about her views on (a) abortion, (b) requiring arrests for domestic violence, and (c) her views on "feminazi's," Del. Dave Albo's response:

"He didn't do anything illegal," Albo said. "He asked questions about things that are important to him." . . . "Review Sought on Judicial Selection Process," The Virginia-Pilot, Feb. 15, 2007.So long as legislators don't don't grope judicial candidates, what's the big deal right? AMG, Albo to Rerras: Just Don't Grope the Applicant (Apr. 15, 2007).When another legislator's wife complained that she was being discriminated against due to her gender. What was Delegate Albo's response? "There's no such thing as workplace harassment." "Complaint Targets State Senator," Richmond Times-Dispatch, 7/19/06. Such sympathy.When Fairfax County requested $22M for subsidized childcare what did he do? He killed it. See AMG, Is Dave Albo Offering to Babysit 1900 Children? (Aug. 7, 2006).When PTA moms wanted to sell cookies at polling places what he do? He tried to ban them. AMG, Dave Albo v. the PTA (Apr. 25, 2006).In 2001, what did Del. Dave Albo say were his constituents top three issues?
Del. David B. Albo, R-Fairfax, said phone bills, particularly various taxes tacked onto bills, trail only abortion and gun control as a top issue for his constituents.' Richmond Times-Dispatch 9.7.2000
You get the idea? So, after getting a 25% rating in 2007, what is Del. Dave Albo's 2008 rating from Virginia NARAL:
0%Shocker.....

We have previously covered Delegate Dave Albo's questionable record on issues important to women:
On Electing Women's JudgesAMG, Why Does Albo Hate Women? (Apr. 17, 2008)AMG: Albo to Rerras, Just Don't Grope the Applicant (Feb. 15, 2007)On Childcare
AMG: Is Dave Albo Offering to Babysit 1,900 Children (Aug. 7, 2006)
On Employment DiscriminationAMG: Albo on Employment Law, "No Such Thing As Workplace Harassment" (July 21, 2006)Delegate Dave Albo also likes to argue that he is "moderate" or "bipartisan" and that he has a "moderate" record on social issues like abortion. We also have this lovely gem from 2001:
Del. David B. Albo, R-Fairfax, said phone bills, particularly various taxes tacked onto bills, trail only abortion and gun control as a top issue for his constituents.' Richmond Times-Dispatch 9.7.2000It appears that his business partner, Majority Leader Morgan Griffith has finally gotten to him (See AMG, Announcing Albo & Griffith). First, Delegate Dave Albo had the following record:
0% pro-choice record in 2008 0% record in 20060% record in 2004Have things improved? Well.... this session, Delegate Dave Albo has voted on HB 2634 which requires doctors to anesthetize a fetus before an abortion (click here for vote).Next, Delegate Dave Albo he voted on HB 2579 to require doctors to offer women a ultrasound before they may proceed with an abortion. (click here for vote).One more thing.... Women have been regularly getting into law schools now since 1965. Delegate Dave Albo has been on the Court's of Justice Committee for 14 years. So, how many women judges are there in Virginia sitting on Circuit Courts?

13 out of 157 (8.2%)
Source: American Judicature SocietyHow many new women Circuit Court Judges have been appointed since Delegate Dave Albo was elected Chairman of the Courts of Justice Committee in 2006?
3 Source
: (2008 - HR 5, 2007 - HR52, HR65, 2006 - HR7, HR34)(At least one of these replaced an existing woman judge, so that's a net gain of 2)So where does Delegate Dave Albo stand on women and women's issues? You decide.

You would think he is a political corpse, but nobody even ran against him in November and he ran unopposed even at the height of his unpopularity. It was so strange, given that many people would have voted anyone with a pulse. He would surely have been defeated.What did he do to prevent any challengers? Was there some kind of nefarious goings on? More info would be great. I loathe this person. Thanks.

Judicial Inbreeding Impedes


Judicial Inbreeding Impedes

By: " Veronique Wyvell, RNMember, Fairfax County Network Against Family

AbuseFounder, Mothers Against Unjust Law

Founder of Mommy Go Bye Bye


Justice For ChildrenProhibiting no-fault divorce for Virginia couples with minor children might increase post-separation litigation.

I have noticed that Virginia's family courts are already experts at creating and endorsing high-conflict cases.
Parental conflict, we know, hurts children. All of the best solutions for managing child custody ("parent-time") disputes share a common theme: miniminzing conflict. Now, minimizing conflict is not exactly in the best interest of most trial lawyers who earn good livings from going to court to litigate cases. Albo knows this. I truly believe that practicing trial lawyer and chief of judicial "hiring and firing" (as Courts of Justice Chair)
Delegate David Albo is Virginia's biggest enemy of children caught in the middle of highly conflicted parent-time disputes. Think about this quote: "To outsiders, Virginia's system of lawmakers electing judges looks quirky and even unfair, a cloistered system of good ol' boys looking out for each other" (--Judge's reappointment a picture of politics at its ugliest, R. H. Melton, Washington Post, 23 January 2003). I think about this quote a lot. And I thought about it a lot on 27 September 2006 and then on 1 December 2006 as I observed JUDICIAL INTERVIEWS/SELECTIONS (House Room C, General Assembly Building, House Committee for Courts of Justice & Senate Committee for Courts of Justice), led by practicing trial lawyer and chief of judicial "hiring and firing" (as Courts of Justice Chair) Delegate David Albo.
Will Albo really prefer a judge who efficiently resolves difficult family cases by getting those cases out of court, for good, as quickly as possible over a judge who exploits by, for example, turning every little motion into a full-blown trial? How does a judge who wants to keep his job keep Albo happy? Think about it.I wish I could wake up the people of Virginia to our deplorable judicial selection process. It is the basis for 40 or so pieces (http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?000+sbj+020+SB016720061) of some of the messiest, most poorly written, "beating around the bush," proposed domestic relations legislation I have ever seen, to the detriment of about 7000 children who each year join the thousands upon thousands already caught in the middle of ongoing parent-time disputes. Much attention, after all, is dedicated to the 7000 or so caught in foster care. Is this not true?Do you know that many of Mr. Albo's cronies are now working both sides of the bench? He likes to call them "substitute judges." What next?Please watch for more Wyvell mail, for "the rest of the story.

Judge Bruce D. White Violates VA Canons of Judicial Conduct



Judge Bruce D. White

How do you feel if you have to leave your little grand child unsupervised, in the hands of a Convicted Criminal, who has no Identity but a chain of criminal activities, who just happened to be the Father ?
Let alone giving him the child's Passport.If they don’t come back home, how do you report a missing person to the police? If you don’t know where he lives, or work, what name he is using today? If he always caries loads of cash money to conduct his unlawful business & using his little kids to enhance his ugly Business.
Do you still justify your ruling on this case as “Best Interest of the Children”?

When a Deceitful GAL,
the Bias Judge and the disgraceful counsel of the scandalous Father Gang up & set you up in the Court..............

In regards of delivering the Twin Girls (age 7) passports to the convicted Document-fraud- addicted/ criminal Father.
Judge Bruce D. White of Fairfax County was not appointed to hear the case, but Judge Kline was. Judge Bruce D. White got selected by the well recognized ostracized & professional Judge shopper GAL in Fairfax County Courts, Ms. Deborah S. Olin.
“In the matter of 10 to 15 minutes, we all found ourselves in Judge Bruce White’s Court room!” Said Ms.…….

Here are the Highlights of the Trail based on the attached Court transcript:

& From Page 122 to the end.
Page 12 to 15 of Transcript

-Opening argument By Mr Fred Rejali – Mother’s attorney in regards of Father’s (Bruce Nowzari) long history of Criminal charges, including his arrest in BWI Air port, forging ID cards, using different Social Security numbers and many more.

-Fairfax County Detective – Criminal Investigation Bureau Testifies – (page 37 of attached transcript):
“I am actively investigating an alleged (Father) Criminal offense.”

-Olin & Bauserman made it look like “False Allegations” against Father!
That means Government original copies of the Father’s Criminal Charges, The Detective testifying of ongoing Criminal investigation against him, or the Forged Driver’s license that was presented by father in the court room, with Holiday Inn Hotel address should be called “False Allegations”! Or may be giving the Department of child support fake Social Security number should also be called “False Allegations”!

Olin, Fabricates again, “These documents were presented to the Court several times & back in 2006 & the Judge didn’t give any weigh to these.” she said.

Fred Rejali: “We did not have his arrest documents, until very recent time, and Ms. Olin these documents was never sent to you.”

- Judge Bruce D. White: (page 33&34)
Lets just assume that he was about to be charged with murder…Are you suggesting the Court would suspend visitation under those circumstances?
(Well…everybody think the answer is YES. Mr. Judge)

Mr Fred Rejali: (page 34&35)
- He is being investigated for Criminal activities pertaining to documents
…would the court provide him with documents pertaining to his own children (passports)?.......We are dealing with the issues that has to do with his Identity. If you don’t know who he is………would you……?

- Judge Bruce D. White to Mr. Rejali (Mother’s Attorney) while he was defending his client:
Why are you throwing yourself under the Sword for “HER”? (in the demeaning tone of voice) –
Mr Rejali: Your honor, because she is my client and………

When Deborah S. Olin 55 years old (GAL) who does not have a child of her own and has a long history of demolishing so many innocent children’s lives (Class Action, also find here in mgbb) talking about “BIOC” or Best Interest of the Child, making you sick into your stomach.

Judge White & Ms. Olin stated: “Father’s Criminal activities carries no harm to his children”

Judge White,
How do you feel if you have to leave your little grand child unsupervised, in the hands of a Convicted Criminal, who has no Identity but a chain of criminal activities, who just happened to be the Father ?
Let alone giving him the child's Passport. If they don’t come back home, how do you report a missing person to the police? If you don’t know where he lives, or work, what name he is using today? If he always caries loads of cash money to conduct his unlawful business & using his little kids to enhance his ugly Business.
Do you still justify your ruling on this case as
“Best Interest of the Children”?

Just a reminder Mr. Judge, Father is a millionaire who is engaged with money laundering & Mother is a hard working single Mom, who is trying so hard to make a decent living for her children. There were no properties under his name to be splitted among them as he untruly stated in your Court room, yet you ruled that Mother has to pay for Father’s attorney fees and expenses. Do you think justice was served?

The little Girls were Left alone by themselves in the car, in the Movie Theatre, behind the mall after closed & found by Security Guard, in his apartment, so they got scared and ran into the street to find him, Left alone & terrified in the car, while Daddy goes to the Restaurant for a long time to take care of his business.
How the Mother should report if she has no information to give out to the police?

I would suggest that you all read attached transcript, specially Direct Examination of Mr. Rejali with the Father (Bruce Nowzari) – all his apparent lies are entertaining & the fact that every time he was short on fabrication, Guess who is coming to his rescue by objecting?
No, not his Lawyer John Bauserman, but The GAL – Deborah Olin, and Guess who keep saying “Sustain” nobody but Judge White!
Can Guardian Ad-Litem act as a one party lawyer in the presence of both sides attorneys?

Violation of Canons of Judicial Conduct for the Commonwealth of Virginia By Judge Bruce D. White
Administrative Responsibilities.
Canon 3 / C-4:
A judge shall not make unnecessary appointments. A judge shall exercise the power of appointment impartially and on the basis of merit. A judge shall avoid nepotism and favoritism. A judge shall not approve compensation of appointees beyond the fair value of services rendered.
Grounds:
A judge shall not approve compensation of appointees beyond the fair value of services rendered.
1- Guardian Ad-Litem Deborah Olin was
reappointed to the case on October 2008, she presented her charges from March of 2008, which Judge White granted Olin with her fraudulent invoice despite Mother’s attorney Objection. There was no report geared up for the hearing by the GAL and She never meet or spoke with Mother, yet Judge White ruled that Mother should pay for half of it.

2 - Judge White Ruled that Mother has to pay $1,600 of Father’s attorney fee for not delivering the children's passports earlier to the convicted Document-fraud- addicted/ criminal Father.

3 - On the review of matter 15 minutes Motion, Mother provided Judge White with all the documentation showing that she applied for the passports on the timely manner pending receipt of it by mail, for the period of 45 minutes, Judge White was flaming with Mother and discussing with the Father’s attorney of how to send her to Jail, not even for the weekend, but for at least 2 weeks. Mother’s Attorney asked Judge, since Mother paid for all passports expenses, to rule & give the Father authority to follow up. Judge Denied. His main focus??? How to send the Mother to Jail. (Remember that Fairfax County Detective testified that they are actively pursuing Father’s Criminal activities? But Judge White thinks, Mother should be sent to Jail….Her Crime? Trying to Protect her Children)

CANON 3 - C
A judge shall perform judicial duties without bias or prejudice. A judge shall not, in the performance of judicial duties, by words or conduct manifest bias or prejudice, including but not limited to bias or prejudice based upon race, sex, religion, national origin, disability, age, sexual orientation or socioeconomic status, and shall not permit staff, court officials and others subject to the judge's direction and control to do so. This Section 3B(5) does not preclude proper judicial consideration when race, sex, religion, national origin, disability, age, sexual orientation or socioeconomic status, or similar factors, are issues in the proceeding.
A judge shall not make unnecessary appointments. A judge shall exercise the power of appointment impartially and on the basis of merit. A judge shall avoid nepotism and favoritism. A judge shall not approve compensation of appointees beyond the fair value of services rendered.

4 – When Mother went to the Dept. of State to follow up on the Status of the passports, She was told that “Dept. of Children Issue” is holding on the passports for the protection of the children. Mother who knew, if she goes back to Judge White’s Court room without Children’s passports will definitely get sentenced , had left with no choice but begging them to release the passports to Mother who has the Sole custody of the Children. – (Remember that Judge White Ruled that Mother should pay $1,600 for Father’s Attorney fee because of delay on delivering the passports? Delay on mailing the Passports was because “Dept. of Children Issue” investigating Father’s Criminal issues.

5- Passports were delivered to the convicted Document-fraud- addicted/ criminal Father’s attorney office on 02/18/09. Judge White didn’t sign the Court order for 3 months nor wanted to deal with it on March 13th Motion. Mother’s attorney had to go through calendar control to set up another hearing in May of 2009 in order to get the order signed. John Bauserman & his Client (Father) didn’t show up & Judge White never ruled on who should legally be in the possession of the children’s passports!. Instead he was concerned about whether Mother should pay more of Father’s legal expenses or not.
So, the convicted Document-fraud- addicted/ criminal Father who recently was granted unsupervised visitation remains as a possessor of the children’s passports with no boundaries.
Judge White left Mother & 2 little girls in the most daunting position.
Do you call this : “ Best Interest of the Children?”
Canon 3 – D - 1:
D. Disciplinary Responsibilities.
1. A judge who receives reliable information indicating a substantial likelihood that another judge has committed a violation of these Canons should take appropriate action. A judge having knowledge that another judge has committed a violation of these Canons that raises a substantial question as to the other judge's fitness for office should inform the Judicial Inquiry and Review Commission.

Judging Judges

JUDJING JUDGES

Can You Afford "Justice?"
What makes the biggest difference to how your day in court will go? The facts? Your lawyer? The jury?
None of the above.
The single biggest factor on whether you receive justice is simply the judge presiding over your case. The news is full of stories of justice delayed or denied because of the whims of the judge. Although sometimes as in the case of one Court in Nevada........more

Judicial hot potato: Is Judge Finch fried?


Judicial hot potato: Is Judge Finch fried?
By: Barbara Hollingsworth
Examiner Columnist
February 2, 2009

A rare pitchfork rebellion has derailed the reappointment of longtime Fairfax Circuit Court Judge Gaylord Finch, one of just two judges among 60 incumbents who were not reappointed to new terms by the Virginia General Assembly.

Finch supporters say that complaints lodged against him are just sour grapes by bitter people who lost in court. Of course, the corollary is that beneficiaries of a rigged process seldom complain.

It takes a pretty powerful sense of grievance to drive down to Richmond and face public ostracism for criticizing a veteran judge. The inherent difficulties tend to weed out most of the frivolous accusations.

And the accusations made by litigants who stepped up to condemn the former Domestic and Juvenile Relations Court judge at two recent public hearings were anything but frivolous.

They told members of the Courts of Justice Committee that Judge Finch did not follow basic legal procedures or consider their cases with due diligence, violated their constitutional rights on occasion and even failed to obey state statutes.

Taken as a whole, the accusations go far beyond individual angst over adverse rulings and speak directly to arrogant and injudicious behavior on the bench.

Elected legislators appoint judges in Virginia and can block reappointment of those who don’t measure up. However, this legislative check on the judiciary is seldom exercised. Most part-time legislators are full-time attorneys who have little incentive to anger judges they may someday have to appear before.

For a veteran judge like Finch, the General Assembly holds hearings – described by one observer as a “five-minute lovefest” - before certifying the incumbent as qualified. After a simultaneous majority vote in both houses, the judge is approved for another term. But the Northern Virginia delegation held back Judge Finch’s certification after hearing from angry citizens on December 11 and January 10:

* Judge Finch was recorded telling committee members that he was assigned to Pascale v. Fairfax County School Board - a controversial school redistricting case – just “ten minutes” before trial although court records show that he was assigned the landmark case on June 12, 2008 – a full three weeks earlier.

Angry parents claim that Judge Finch “rubber-stamped the decision of the School Board...without providing any reasoning or analysis for his decision” – as required by state law.

* An Arlington man says Judge Finch denied him due process by not allowing him to present evidence to the jury during his trial on trespassing charges, which were later dropped on appeal, for attending a 2005 party at his disabled son’s Fairfax County school. All of the defendant’s motions were mysteriously missing from the official record of action, even though they appear in a list sent to the appellate court.

* A Herndon man says Judge Finch ordered him to hand over more than $60,000 to a former Fairfax Bar Association president acting as a guardian-ad-litem and refused to issue a final ruling in his case for more than three years, instead of the required 21 days, forcing him to pay more than $200,000 in legal fees. After complaining to the chief judge, his case was finally settled on January 8.

* Court records also show that in 2007, Judge Finch took a six-year-old girl away from her single working mother and four siblings and awarded custody to the first grader’s father - "contingent" on his live-in girlfriend, who had previous drug and DUI convictions, passing random drug testing.

When another former litigant requested a copy of Finch’s Judicial Performance Evaluation, the state’s Division of Legislative Services told her via email: “Judge Finch is not one of the judges for whom the legislature received a JPE this year.” So on what basis are committee members considering his reappointment?

Citizens deserve to know before they’re subjected to Judge Finch’s questionable judgment for another eight years.

Rate Judges



Virginia's Criminal Justice
Rate Judges - va.justlaw@live.com

JUDGE ALFRED SWERSKYRetired Judge
Did not follow Virginia statues nor provide required rationale for his decision.
Judge Frank Somerville
Culpeper County
The military needs to train/rehabilitate their boy, his actions have shown he needs help and has let our government down. Judge Somerville's moral compass is far beyond off course and is affecting every ones lives, the ripple affect is huge and is permanently damaging the society and economy in Culpeper VA. Judge Somerville is negatively using the court room and the small court room on upper floor to commit crimes against individuals that he and his peers have targeted. Judge Somerville commits and allows others to commit domestic violence in and out of the court room, and this judge is not for the best interests of your children. Judge Somerville benefits financially, favors to allow these bad things to happen. A few of Judge Frank Somerville's organized crime members are GAL Michael Sharman, Gwen Corley Therapist, Janet Lynn Ours Esq., Judge Dudley Payne/Mediator. Huge negative outcomes, and drastically affecting all children and every ones future.
Please add this judge to your list.

JUDGE CHRISTOPHER HUTTON8th Judicial Circuit
I’ve been gravely disappointed with the quality of Judge Hutton’s opinions, his appearance of impropriety, and in his undue delay (16 months) in providing an opinion in a contempt of court charge I filed against my opposing counsel.

JUDGE PAUL GLUCKOWSKIManassas
This judge just out right refused to recognize and take into consideration the realities surrounding the case. I was totally in the wrong and what ever the Mother said was taken as the word of God. He had a total and complete disregard for what was really in the best interests of my son and my son has suffered for it. What is really disturbing is I was only looking for joint custody and equal time.

JUDGE RANDY SMIT
Chesapeake Circuit
Smith ignored every bit of evidence that the defendant was innocent. He looked at him when he first stood up and got this look on his face like, " I know this guy is guilty." He even lied about the evidence in his ruling. This "judge" needs to be locked up.

JUDGE WILLIAM SHARPWarren County
Sharp has repeatedly denied me due process for political reasons and has caused my children unspeakable harm for the benefit of his friends despite overwhelming evidence presented over and over again.

JUDGE PHILIP TROMPETERRoanoke County J&D
This corrupt judge along with his "cohort" child guardian (Diana M. Perkinson) work well together in perfect unison, to destroy innocent families in the Roanoke County, Virginia area. God only knows the overwhelming statistics of innocent lives suffering at their evil hands.
JUDGE GARY A. HICKS
Henrico Circuit Court, Richmond, VA
This judge flat out denied me due process of the law & gave my house away & had me evicted as a tenant after I paid $200K to build the house & lived there alone for almost 5 years paying the mortgage, taxes and HOA fees. I was never allowed to show my proof or call on y own witnesses. He totally discriminated against me for being a Hispanic gay woman from NY, just because he is the President of the Christian Family Values Assoc, in Richmond, VA.

JUDGE GARY A. HICKS
Richmond, VA
This judge flat out denied me due process of the law and gave my house away to a crazy diabolical ex who paid nothing for my house & who is not even on the deed. I paid over $200K for my house up front & lived there for almost 5 years alone & he allowed a sheriff to evict me as a tenant. I was denied my rights because I am a gay woman from NY, who was never allowed to show my proof of payments and to have my witnesses testify on behalf. This Judge has acted like he is under the table with the shyster lawyer who represented my ex.

JUDGE LARRY WILLIS
Chesapeake, VA
don’t know if he’s pissed at being repeatedly passed over for Circuit Court or if he’s been passed over because he’s just an idiot. I’ve actually seen this man asleep during a trial. He doesn’t listen to the testimony and makes up his decisions as he goes along. Let’s hope that when he leaves the JDR, he doesn't go any higher.


JUDGE WILLIAM SHARPCity of Winchester, Virginia
Judge Sharp doesn't even know the LAW and can't seem to read it even when you provide him a COPY of it. Same with Beth Kellas - her last order VIOLATED state and Federal US Code!!They continue to write orders without ANY JURISDICTION - which is cool on the flip side cuz Judges get NO Judicial Immunity from a Federal Judge when Civil Rights lawsuits against them personally are filed.

JUDGE ELIZABETH KELLASCity of Winchester, Virginia
At a "private" Bar Associate meeting I snuck into- she AND Judge Sharp stated "I do not look at any pleadings filed until the actual hearing" - Maybe THAT’S why there's no such thing as getting a DCSE Show Cause filed ILLEGALLY by a NON ATTORNEY working for the state, or NOT PERSONALLY SERVED as required by the LAW to be Dismissed?

JUDGE CHARLES LINCONJuvenile & Domestic Marion, VA
This judge used to be the attorney for dept of corrections in Marion, VA. the father of my child is employed with Dept of Corrections in Marion, VA. However when we went to court over custody of my son there were no conflicts of interest declared. Oh and by the way the father got custody of my son how ironic is that?

JUDGE NELSON DURDENJ&DR Hampton, VA
Judge Durden was supposed to have retired in 2007 however supposedly because of the case load he has been kept on. Judge Durden does not care about the Non Custodial parents rights at all in my opinion. He actually has empowered the criminal activity of the noncustodial parent in my case. Four times he has found her guilty of Failure to Comply with visitation orders, resulting in 4 suspended sentences. He "forgot" things that were said during testimony. I had to correct him on more than one occasion, he does not maintain order in the court allowing my testimony to be disturbed by the custodial parents outburst and actually ACKNOWLEDGING her comments without giving her a warning for being disorderly. I am sure he has destroyed more child - parent relationships than he has helped.

JUDGE GAYLORD FINCHFairfax County, VA 19th Circuit
He should have been removed from the bench long ago.

JUDGE WESTBROOK J. PARKERChief Judge Suffolk, Virginia
He is not a believer in citizens constitutional rights. Participated in a set up between the Gloucester Board of Supervisors, their lawyer Antony Troy to penalize citizens who petitioned to remove four corrupt supervisors.

JUDGE THOMAS J. WOODAugusta Co. Circuit Court
Extremely corrupt judge who should be in jail himself for corruption! He is now retired but still sits in on cases periodically

JUDGE VICTOR LUDWIG
Waynesboro J&D Court
This judge ignored an attempted murder on my life by the father of my five year old little boy, who witnessed the incident. He did not see this to be a concern when giving him custody.

JUDGE CALESPORTSMOUTH
This judge fell asleep 4 times during a trial and he lets the prosecutors run his court room. On this same day and same trail Judge Cales did not deliberate the case at all as if his mind was already made up before trail. Judge Cales never even considered the defendant evidence and made his ruling of one persons testimony. This is a very bad state and court to have trouble in. I felt very bad for that guy his whole life was in a sleeping judges had and he was convicted for something that seemed so clear that he was innocence.


JUDGE JEFFERY PARKERCircuit, Warrenton, VA
He used contempt of court, summary, to stop a protest outside of the court. He lied from the bench. This is going to the court of appeals. When he is overruled he must be impeached. Parker should not be on the Bench, he is not truthful. We the people must not stand for this type of people in his position.

JUDGE FINCH
Fairfax, VA

Judge Finch is a bad excuse for a judge. He needs to go!

JUDGE GEORGE (JEFF) FAIRBANKS
J&DR Williamsburg/James City County, VA
Not one of these laws in the Code of Virginia was adhered to in a cases I know of. I witnessed some of it. I gave him a fair on communications because he is good at twisting a witnesses words and getting them out of the witness box quickly when their testimony is damaging to the person he wants to win. He controls the local police (Virginia Gazette article in October 2008) who fail to report crimes against a parent by the other or write false reports to make one parent look badly. I have heard him violate every statute in this list. I know one woman who has the proof of false reports.

JUDGE RANDALL SMITH
Chesapeake Circuit
This guy never belonged on the bench. He bought his way in with contributions to legislators' campaigns. Was responsible for at least 1 wrongful convictions as Commonwealth's Attorney. Has already been overruled on appeal at least twice. Even ruled against his own clerk of court.

JUDGE SAUEL T POWELLWilliamsburg/James City County Circuit Court, VA
Refuses to recuse himself from a case I know of even though legal action has been taken against him in Federal Court by one of the people in the case. Threatens sanctions from bench for any action against him. Uses friends for his dirty work. Friends profit by his decisions. Appointed Tommy Norment to $350,000 per year post only days before re-appointment to bench. Norment abstained from vote, but worked behind the scenes to help Powell.

CHIEF JUSTICE HASSELL
Va. Supreme Court
Chief Justice Hassell has violated the Constitution of Virginia and Va. Code § 17.1-913. Confidentiality of papers and proceedings...A. All papers filed ...including the identification of the subject judge as well as all testimony and other evidence and any transcript thereof ...or (iv) participates in any proceeding of the Commission or in the official recording or transcription thereof, except that the record of any proceeding filed with the Supreme Court shall lose its confidential characterAll records of proceedings before the Commission which are NOT filed with the Supreme Court in connection with a formal complaint filed with that tribunal, shall be kept in the confidential files of the Commission.

SUPREME COURT JUSTICE DOUG ROBELENVA Supreme Court
As a new "judge" of the Va. Supreme Court (not really, he's the clerk) I'm curious why the high Court cannot cite the LAW permitting people other than Judges the authority to sign COURT ORDERS - ??? Even my FOIA was denied - citing that would be the unauthorized practice of law to cite which law grants that authority - I think they meant - there is NO LAW.
JUDGE EILEEN ANITA OLDSChesapeake JDR
Judge Olds doesn't listen, doesn't even follow her own orders, try to make new law from the bench, In one breath she made an order then with another breath she counter the order. She is the first female judge in Chesapeake, and it has gone to her head. Also note that if she order you to do something which she doesn't have the power to enforce that order will get lost from your court file, so get a copy asap Do not go into her courtroom with an lawyer, and if you really want her to do her job also hired a court Stenographer to record your hearing, you have this right in VA, However JDR will not give you any names of these people
JUDGE R. POTTERCircuit Court, Prince William Co, Manassas, VA
He is a complete clown that have people suffer for decisions made by him without taking into consideration the financial and other livelihood of other people that he affect on its decisions that create lots of problems for families of victims of his Circus court mainly by a Clown judge and corrupt court like his.
JUDGE STUART L. WILLIAMS, JR
J&DR Court Henrico VA
Had not read the past case history, and ordered father to pay child support on 3 children of mother, when one is his. Had no idea what happened before, and laughed at grandmother when asked for visitation. Motion after motion are being ignored to lower the child support, is basically a clueless rubber stamper counting the days until Friday golf with all their friends the lawyers.
JUDGE SHARON B. WILL
J&DR Court Henrico VA
Refused to hear testimony, had no proof, only the say so of a women who on numerous occasions had been caught lying in court, which there is no record for because Henrico court do not keep records, as law demands, this way there is no record of their lack of evidential due process, and disregard of testimony of others, and her actions reflect her bias towards men, and power trip that gives her the means to be as nasty as she wants, no proof necessary. And NO ONE IS WATCHING SO THEY GET AWAY WITH IT 100 times a day, five days a week.
JUDGE DENIS F. SODENJ&DR Court Henrico VA
As clueless of the law as Williams and Will, with evidence to the contrary, and the DA stating that this "abuse" could have happened earlier in the day, when there were no witnesses. With three people stating otherwise, the women was still the "victim" and the guy was the abuser, oh wait, because the testimony was only 2, Will refused to hear the 3rd witness?
