Page # 1 2 16. My children have lost enough time with their parents, along with the childhood memories and lessons, as a result of what our family has been forced to endure.     As you can tell, those involved with the fraudulent efforts underlying this conspiratorial effort, are closely watching this site. With regard to comments provided by 'Username Withheld' from Marietta, Susanna Treadway from Marietta, Susanna Say from Powder Springs, or JE Hoover, I pray God will speak to the ears of all, laying witness to the extensive and horrendous fraud the aforementioned having willingly become a party to, which is being perpetrated upon Georgia property owners via false case precedence, ultimately to be imposed upon other states and property owners across this country. In an effort to silence and finalize the erroneous writings and assertions presented on this site, I have attached a sworn affidavit from Mr. Rob Hosack. Mr. Hosack is the sole individual in charge of Code Compliance matters for Cobb County Georgia, where my property is located and the Treadway [Say] couple built next door to. As the LMTA Covenants used against us, though our property has NO covenants or restrictions, defines any issue relating to fences to be based ONLY upon county code compliance, Mr. Hosack is the only authority, empowered by any government authority to make a lawful determination on the subject fence. While the Treadway [Say] couple threatened Mr. Hosack, engineers, Commissioners, neighbors, etc., despite exhausting the county appeal process, were repeatedly informed there was no violation by the Rices, but they were in fact in violation of Cobb County Ordinances. After this unequivocal determination, this couple along with Ronald L. Cannon and Attorney Richard Calhoun of Brock Clay Calhoun (BCC) repeatedly perjured themselves, asserting known and fraudulent information. And shockingly, Judge Adele Grubbs, a British trained lawyer, with common ties to the Treadway [Say] Couple (England), ruled in opposition to evidence, direct testimony, covenants, Secretary of State Documentation, Georgia Law, the Georgia Constitution, Federal Law, the United States Constitution, and prevailing case precedence. And despite ALL of those facts, crimes, and the associated as well as complicit accomplices, the Courts of Georgia did nothing to uphold the 'rule of law'. In addition, when I spoke to friends, they were shocked, incredulous, and unable to comprehend the magnitude. But particularly frightening is when those connected to the Republican Party like my Representative Earl Ehrhart, told me to be quiet and STOP TALKING ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY! I thank God, that there is a public forum for property rights, such as the AHRC and their sister sites. Until 2000, when my husband found AHRC, we knew nothing of CAI or even the BAR. And clearly as a private, young family raising our children in a quiet suburb, we could have never understood the impetus and underlying goal of lobbyists such as the CAI along with the connected web of law firms, CIA interests, and their related judicial enablers, seeking to create law from case precedence, beyond the financially controlled politicians, who owed their allegiance, income, or political livelihood to same. With that I offer evidence and clear proof via a number of documents to follow, and pray the relentless deception and stalking might cease. And I pray those who suffer from their own self professed mental issues, would obtain the necessary treatment and/or medication. My children have lost enough time with their parents, along with the childhood memories and lessons, as a result of what our family has been forced to endure.

Let me say, we have never even attempted to break a law.     Thank you for your comments and questions. First and foremost let me say, we have never even attempted to break a law. The issue of incarceration was threatened multiples times. In the first instance, Judge Grubbs threatened incarceration, if we asserted our ACC or corporate interests, which we solely and privately possess. The influence and extreme corruption this situation entails has to do in my opinion, with the power and influence of the Brock Clay & Calhoun (BCC) law firm,it's self professed connections to the 'White House and the Halls of Congress'(Chuck Clay's grandfather is Lucius Clay of Crusade Freedom), Chuck's positions as the former Head of the Republican Party, and former State Senaor, along with the muscle behind the GA Bar Association, and its related 'Board of Governors', of which Judge Grubbs was a member at the time of this action. Does it additionally involve parties such as CAI, ALEC, various oil as well as banking interests, and countless officials? You bet! Judge Grubbs herself, was appointed to a Council Position by Speaker Hastert, along with a Board of Governors title at the GA Bar, when this situation began. There are the obvious and unequivocal connections at their most minute and highest level. Did we do anything to cause this situation? My husband and 3 others spoke up in 6/99, regarding the illegal sale of common property proposed by Ronald L. Cannon. As a result, each one of those people denouncing violations of law and fraud, were retaliated against, despite the lack of standing any person or group possessed to file even threaten such a cause of action or action on behalf of. The specific comment asserted was, "We can do anything, we can get a judge to say is OK!" The file created according to billing records on our family was first dated 9/99. Funny thing, we never made known we had an interest in a fence, until 10/15/99. And we put up a fence seeking neighbors, county, and countless approvals, verbal and in writing, to protect our children and property, both of which were and have been damaged to date. After putting up the $25,000 PVC fence, we were sued, and told to take it down. Judge Grubbs issued her void order (April 2003) to alter or take down our approved fence, though the issue upon which she predicated the alteration was county code, a compliance that has been attested to, sworn to, and repeatedly reaffirmed, regarding our unwavering compliance, and the lack of compliance by the Says and the Odoms, on both sides of our property. By the way, in the LMTA Covenants, the only requirement for fences is, they comply with county code; of which a sworn affidavit by the county code enforcement attesting to our compliance, along with the Says and Odoms lack thereof) is available on the website, www.ricegang.com. Strangely enough, Judge Grubbs seeks to impose on our family alone, a different standard than any other owner or citizen. Via her order, she has sought to rewrite law and case precedence, let alone violate the Constitution. And the charge of contempt, is based upon another fraudulent order and refusal to honor a conflict and objection properly filed. Succintly, Grubbs wants to incarcerate us for not altering the height of our fence in conjunction with a clearly VOID and fraudulent Order, to whatever dissolved corporation or entity with no interest in our property, might command. To summarize the situation, there are 6 relevant points that are critical in understanding the key significance of this action, as they relate to all GA and ultimately, every American homeowner, based minimally on the application and adoption of case precedence. 1. We have NO covenants and restrictions on our deed, and never have, since closing in 1991. But a British judge, Adele Grubbs imposed covenants and restrictions on an unencumbered deed in violation of the Constitution of GA, codified law, and case precedence. 2. We were sued and prevailed upon, by a dissolved corporation (LMHA, Inc.), not involved in the winding down of business, but an injunctive relief action,in violation of the Constitution of GA, codified law, and case precedence. Following Grubbs Order of April 2003, we pointed out this impossibility to our neighbors in a letter sent out during 12/03. However in 2004, the GA Secretary of State's Office, headed by Cathy Cox now a Gubnatorial Candidate for GA, allowed BCC to reinstate the company, without refiling or updating the original corporate documents, in violation of the Constitution of GA, codified law, and case precedence. 3. The second Plaintiff added by Brock Clay Calhoun (BCC - (specifically Attorney Richard Calhoun), before the initial Judge retired, ordered BCC to 'substitute' a Plaintiff or he would throw it out. Instead Calhoun 'added'the ACC (Architectural Control Committee) of LMTHA (a corporation which did not exist, until we created it, after being sued by the non existent entity), in violation of the Constitution of GA, codified law, and case precedence. Additionally, according to the LMTA Covenants, no ACC had ever been filed or legitimized at the time the suit was filed against us (2000). So, working with developers, I filed the first legitimate ACC. Mr. Calhoun must have thought it to be a sound decision, as he replicated the idea 1 year later, using the name of a person never an officer to any corporation associated with the neighborhood, to effectuate his filing! Not to worry, Judge Grubbs found in favor of both LMHA, Inc. and the ACC of LMTHA. In follow-up, Attorney Calhoun filed a fraudulent document in court, alleging we were asserting our ACC in opposition to his within our neighborhood...sounds like a childish and ridiculous notion, wouldn't you say? Well Judge Grubbs threatened us with contempt, if we asserted our rights. And the letter Calhoun used to insight her, it was never received nor sent to the neighbor noted. It was simply a fraudulent prop to negate our rights. 4. In reality, we were actually sued in retaliation for objecting to the sale of common property owned by 76 owners, which was sold by Mr. Ronald L. Cannon. Cannon swore he was the President of LMHA, Inc. (a non profit corp - dissolved at the time Judge Grubbs ruled on behalf of it!), in court before Judge Grubbs, but with the help of BCC, signed away 10 acres and 2 tennis courts to a foreign diplomat (Consulate of the Netherlands - Erik Vonk), via a quit claim deed, posing as the President of LMTA, Inc., (a profit corporation). The common area was sold by the way for approximately 1/10 of the market value at the time, and without any appraisal! Great way to buy or sell, aye?! 5. The Court of Appeals allegedly "upheld the Trial Court's decision", but allowed the Plaintiff to change their name on Appeal, and ruled in favor of a Plaintiff never before plead in any proceeding, even though they plead multiple Plaintiffs throughout both the Trial and Appellate Courts! That's legal, right?!!!!! When we filed a 'Motion to Strike and Overturn', Clerk Bill Martin "misfiled" that Motion for 4 months, until the pleading was denied at the same time as the ultimate decision in the overall appeal. In addition to the change of Plaintiff, the Appeals Court also rewrote Grubbs Order relating to damages. Former Judge Eldridge (now retired) wrote, Judge Grubbs did not mean to state we were "stubbornly litigious" (siting occurrences that took place after we were sued - like notifying our neighbors we were being sued!), but instead Eldridge wrote Grubbs really meant we acted in "bad faith". That change and violation of law to the underlying Trial Court decision, prompted $40,000 in legal fees erroneously against us, in violation of the rules of the Appeals Court, the Constitution of GA, codified law, and case precedence. 6. To add insult to injury, you (any owner) can now be sued for restrictions on your home that are not in your chain of title. You can even be sued by a dissolved corporation (LMHA, Inc. - non profit corp). The covenants of a separate corporation (LMTA, Inc. - profit corp), can be applied to your property, but enforced by a separate non profit corporation, not mentioned or related to the covenants of another separate profit corporation! This is not only a violation of both property and contract law, but an abomination to logic, reason, and good sense. But Attorney Calhoun along with Judge Kreeger says, "it's the law". There were approximately 20+ neighbors, who provided affidavits, sworn testimony, or some type of support. Each was horrified, when the court, in addition to BCC, Cannon, Say et al violated the law. Literally, they were scared to death, and a good number have taken losses on their homes and left. But most telling were the billing records for BCC. In them, noted in black and white, are the countless calls to the County, the Says effort, Cannon's vengeful attacks, and former US Attorney William Duffey...now Federal Court Judge Duffey's most interesting note, a criminal stalking investigation begun on me personally, while my children and I were being watched and/or videotaped in our own backyard. One notation in the billing records of BCC states, "Created a file for Detective Holland". Funny thing, Detective Holland's superior knew nothing about it, and there is no record in the Cobb County Police Department. Did I mention, State Rep Sharon Cooper (East Cobb) claimed to be a "dear friend" of Ms. Say, who at the time was not an American citizen, and had resided in GA for a brief period? Specifically, Detective Holland said, I was investigated for 3 weeks, but (surprise!), they found no incidence of criminal stalking. Let me also mention, Holland and Cooper wrote the stalking statute for the state of GA! At that time, Rep. Cooper was one of the highest ranking Republicans in the House. Recently there have been several submissions in which the name has been withheld or different names were alleged. Susanna Say and Sue Treadway for the record are one in the same, as I have been made aware. So as to be clear, this person is the wife of my British neighbor, who claims to be on an HOA 'board member', who has never had even a quorum at a meeting, much less a majority of any vote. LMHA,Inc. along with the Says co conspirator Ron Cannon, filed suit against us for alleged violations of LMTA Covenants and County Code. The issue of county compliance was dropped, when the lawsuit was dismissed by the Plaintiff and renewed in 2002, noted in the billing records as a dismissal "to avoid corporate legal issues". But leave it to Judge Grubbs to rule on a matter not before her, and in violation of the highest and best evidence. Despite the assertions on behalf of LMHA, Terence Treadway Say and associates, have billed my family for HOA dues under the titles, LMHA, LMTA, LM HOA, and LMTHA. I won't further any other antics or anthrocities, but will reference documents and information available on www.ricegang.com for the more heinous details of the abominations emanating, perpetrated by, or associated with the instigating parties. As to the Governor, AG, DA, or any other elected official, the complicit nature of the entire cabal has been horrendous. In fact, the connections and associations are far more deep, than currently noted. But in closing let me say, I visited the Governor's Office again last week. I reminded them of my earlier 2004 meeting with the Governor and his assurance these atrocities would not stand. But my follow-up was at that time directed to Chief Legal Counsel Harold Melton. Mr. Melton definitively stated the situation to be 'a separation of powers issue'. While Article I Section I Paragraph II of the GA Constitution is in direct conflict with this statement, Harold Melton refused to review the provided documentation. Since 2004, Mr. Melton has been named to the GA Supreme Court by Governor Perdue. And Chief of Staff for the Governor in our most recent meeting, seemed surprised by the information he was provided. In fact, a follow-up with Justice Melton, was his indicated action item. Now there's some separation of powers! I hope this information addresses your issues, but if not, don't hesitate. The 'miniseries' comment is humorous. But in all honesty, this ordeal has felt more to use like one bad dream, that not even JR could be revived from. May God grant mercy, peace, and love! See ya!

Posted Sep 23 2005 12:51PM PDT     Susanna Say (View Profile) Marietta, Georgia   12. Please explain but not with all the legal garbage, just so us readers can understand.     Andy and Taffy, You say in your last posting that judges, the District Attorney, the Attorney General, are all involved in this conspiracy, along with some foreign diplomat and lawyer. Why are you saying you are about to be arrested? What have you done wrong? Your website and all these letters are not explaining this. You mention contempt- what were you supposed to do that made you go into contempt? Please explain but not with all the legal garbage, just so us readers can understand. Posted Sep 22 2005 3:18PM PDT     Richard Grimes (View Profile) , Tennessee   11. Why haven't you sued the Homeowners Association?     Hey there Andy, I've read your site ricegang and all the Ahrc stuff. Why haven't you sued the Homeowners Association? If they have seized your land it is a crime, what did they do with the money they got from the sale of your land? If they have put it in the general fund it is co mingling, if not where is it? Have the officers been "paid with the money? You should have been compensated. If I were you I'd go and camp on the land and refuse to move and get the newspapers on your side. This is plain theft. If it were my land I'd have moved in on it. Did other homeowners also own some land or was it just yours? Like the other guy wrote if you have a deeded interest in it, the courts have got to see your ownership. Even the government compenstates when they seize land by eminant domain. Posted Sep 20 2005 3:28AM PDT     Richard Grimes (View Profile) , Tennessee   10. I can't believe this is going on to this level in our county.     Who has threatened the Rices with Violence? What is he suggesting in his (quote) 'terroristic ordeal?" This is scary. For what are they being held in contempt of court? I am not following this too well. Looking at their synopsis of the case it appears that the case was initially about a fence. Is there a counter suit from the Rices concerning the seizing of their land? How big a piece of land was seized and was it owned by just by them or the homeowners in the subdivision? Have they a deeded interest on this land- that is, is it on their deed when they purchased the home or did it belong to the subdivision homeowners as part of the Covenants. Was it owned by them originally prior to being siezed and sold, or was it mentioned as part of the covenants of the Lost Mountain Homeowners? Didn't Mr.Rice say his home was not part of the subdivision and not covered by the Covenants. Please help me on this? Please Mr. Rice could you clear this up for us. This case seems as you say "too fantastic" I can't believe this is going on to this level in our county. Posted Sep 18 2005 4:58PM PDT     Username withheld Marietta, Georgia   9. Georgia judges involved have repeatedly violated the Constitution, their oaths of office, U.S. Code, and Georgia Code.     I welcome any comments from "honest upright citizens." However, I challenge you to justify your calling me and my wife liars. We have absolutely nothing to fear from the "truth." In fact, we try to inform of the truth every day, in all we do. I am always open to honest discussions of the facts. If you would identify yourself, I would be glad to consider your comments. In our case, the facts and law are on our side. Unfortunately, the judges and other elected officials are not following the law. There has been a continual denial of the facts and law in our 5 plus year terroristic ordeal, which have included threats of violence, as well as tremendous costs. The judges involved have repeatedly violated the Constitution, their oaths of office, U.S. Code, and Georgia Code. Unfortunately, in the entire history of Georgia, NO JUDGE has ever been impeached. I can see it will not happen now, as well. For now, I pray for you and your cohorts. As for my house, we will serve the Lord. We openly (not anomynously) stand by our actions and stand up for our rights. Posted Sep 16 2005 8:23PM PDT     Andy Rice (View Profile) White, Georgia   8. Why do my comments never get to be published     Why do my comments never get to be published on your web, they are ignored and wiped out. When the truth is hidden it gives power to the liars and exaggerations that perpetrate and malign honest upright citizens.
