Cobb County Fraud Continues

When learning firsthand of the Cobb "Courthouse Crowd," I had no clue how far and how willing professionals or those with sworn oaths were willing to go! But God wanted our family and the world to know the truth. So when Judge Adele Grubbs acted willfully and repetitively beyond her jurisdiction and the rule of law, fellow members of the bench 'circled the wagons' to protect their "Court" (really the people's!), by targeting relentlessly those, able to lay witness to the facts involving the replete 'fraud upon the court'.

Like Chief Judge James Bodiford and Judge George Kreeger, Judge Mary E. Staley, a former candidate for a federal judgeship, was ready to answer the call of support for her fellow members of the judiciary, caught in their own web of dishonor. As a result, we offer to you a view of 'justice gone Stale(y)'!

After being sued by a dissolved corporation (LMHA, Inc.), which Secretary of State (SOS) Head and former candidate for Governor Cathy Cox (D), allowed to be reinstated despite more than 2 years following dissolution, asserting the same antiquated Articles of Incorporation, LMHA overcame literal and legal necromancy! And thus, our understanding of the control being imposed upon varying levels of government took on a new depth crossing party lines.

But when now deceased Judge Flournoy ruled a dissolved company had no standing and the 17 visits by Cobb County Government yielded no violation against our property for Attorney Richard Calhoun, not even false assertions by Terence and Susanna Say, who prefer to be 'managing agents' over a neighborhood of unsuspecting owners via fraudulent legal actions, filings, and/or liens by various law firms, could be buried among the necromancy!

Originally Calhoun of Brock Clay Calhoun (BCC), filed his second SLAPP (Strategic Litigation Against Public Participation) lawsuit to willfully deny any accountability for fraud and theft by asserting an action brought by the Says (Say/Odom v. Rice CAN 00-1-9027-28).

The suit focused upon our exterior lights, forced installation of cameras to document damage to property, protection from clients entering our property/home, while making comments about their personal issues of manic depression and living under an assumed name, which they were the source of. But NOT to worry, political connections can ALWAYS overcome FACTS in the Cobb County Courts!

The issue of insurance and the lawyers involved must be another chapter, but the law firm of Downey and Cleveland along with the assistance of fellow BAR Member and Insurance Attorney Joe Parker, is where we must fast forward to. Although the insurance involvement and concurrence is a chapter only explainable by 'The Unseen Hand,' Attorney Parker has earned more than a few chapters of his own!

You see when depositions were taken documenting the ludicrous nature of the suit, it was revealed via the testimony of William and Jennifer Odom, that Attorney Parker had willfully withheld evidence, in direct opposition to the discovery answers filed. But for ole 'Joe' as Judge Mary preferred to address Attorney Parker, the rules don't matter, when you know the judge.

At present, Attorney Parker has even broadened his scope to submitting fraudulent Orders with a signature clearly NOT Judge Staleys. That is of course in the face of FOUR Recusals against Judge Staley, for everything from bias to false statements. But the latest ruse is a humdinger, which you property owner advocates might clearly recognize. Upon providing answers to Parker's repetitive demands for discovery material already provided or in his possession, it seems quite conveniently, there are NEVER enough. Thus he seeks to impose busy work on the opposing party, while asking his favorite judge to dismiss or find contempt, the favored finding for those speaking about misconduct or asserting their legal rights!

You see we filed a Motion regarding the withholding of evidence and false statements by Attorney Parker, and despite a Rule Nisi for a hearing, letters to Judge Staley and additional pleadings, the Motion was NOT ruled upon. However Attorney Parker decided he wanted to write a response to the Motion and receive attorney fees for the effort. And even though Judge Staley had NOT ruled on the underlying Motion, she did rule on Attorney Parker's Response Motion granting him approximately $6,902.00, WITHOUT regard to the original Motion.

Needless to say the reminders to the judge's action were NOT well received. But when she asserted having already ruled on the Motion via a backdated document, it was good to have a certified record of the court record docket sheet. You see Judge Staley alleged, she did NOT know of our Motion, though she granted Parker fees for answering it!
That little feat is followed by a hearing scheduled by Attorney Parker, which he notices a conflict for with Motions to Recuse pending against Judge Staley. Not a problem, Joe instead holds documents for 10 days, the time allowed for the Rices to respond, and then issues Orders that do NOT bear original signatures by Judge Staley. Nothing like a well orchestrated hit!

Just another day in the Cobb County Courts! So are we convinced the Courts of Georgia (GA) understand the 'rule of law?' And what is your bet, that "contempt" for Mr. Parker's effort will be the next step. So apparently, when it comes to Attorney Parker, "fraud upon the court," and a quick game of racketeering, always yields a heavy volley even at Christmas. But remember, Judge Grubbs is a Board of Governors Member on the GA Bar, and the Cobb County Judges are a closely bonded group. No worries mate, or is the public becoming aware, due process in Cobb County does NOT exist?
