In the news, not guilty, that's the verdict handed down on [00:57.020 --> 01:01.740] the fourth and final day in the Austin, Texas trial of Antonio Beeler, charged with misdemeanor [01:01.740 --> 01:06.120] failure to obey the order of an officer. I'm very fortunate. I think that there's so many [01:06.120 --> 01:10.320] innocent people who've been convicted for crimes they didn't commit. They didn't have [01:10.320 --> 01:14.040] the community that I have. I just feel very fortunate. I'm just so grateful that all the [01:14.040 --> 01:18.220] witnesses stepped forward, a lot of witnesses who had no idea who I was that night. Just [01:18.220 --> 01:22.680] so grateful that an officer crossed the thin blue line to speak the truth, and I'm grateful [01:22.680 --> 01:27.400] that the jury members had the courage to stand up for the truth as opposed to being bullied [01:27.400 --> 01:31.240] by the prosecutor. The Austin police officer who crossed the thin blue line to provide [01:31.240 --> 01:35.320] testimony on behalf of Beeler is Jermaine Hopkins, and his willingness to do what he [01:35.320 --> 01:41.400] calls the right thing has cost him his job. I believe APD is an agency that cannot police [01:41.400 --> 01:45.240] itself. Unfortunately, it's at the higher levels. Beeler was arrested in the early morning [01:45.240 --> 01:49.440] hours of New Year's Day 2012 when he came to the defense of a woman being detained by [01:49.440 --> 01:54.360] Austin police officers, Patrick Oborski and Robert Snyder. That act is what led to his [01:54.360 --> 01:59.360] arrest and ultimately to the trial, which involved 25 hours of proceedings and six hours [01:59.360 --> 02:03.920] of deliberations for the five-person jury to reach its not guilty verdict. Beeler was [02:03.920 --> 02:08.280] represented by attorney Millie Thompson. If we flood the courthouse with cases like this, [02:08.280 --> 02:12.820] they will stop doing it. I was very blessed to be on the right side. The trial was one [02:12.820 --> 02:18.000] of twists and turns, including the loss of the sixth juror who stepped down, informing [02:18.000 --> 02:21.960] the judge he would not be able to reach a verdict, as he feared there was a group who [02:21.960 --> 02:26.920] would retaliate with physical violence if he did so. The group has not been publicly [02:26.920 --> 02:32.040] identified.

[04:24.840 --> 04:32.560] So tomorrow is our favorite, my favorite day of the year, my grandson's birthday. [04:32.560 --> 04:36.480] Anyway, thank you all for being here. [04:36.480 --> 04:41.720] We do have a guest that will be coming on shortly. [04:41.720 --> 04:49.960] We had a win this week, big time, major win. [04:49.960 --> 04:58.360] Anybody who's ever been in the family courts is well aware of the problems in the family [04:58.360 --> 04:59.360] courts. [04:59.360 --> 05:06.880] Everywhere I go, I get more complaints about corruption in the family courts than anywhere [05:06.880 --> 05:07.880] else. [05:07.880 --> 05:16.280] And in a civilized society, there's just something terribly, terribly wrong with that. [05:16.280 --> 05:22.180] And when I look at the family courts, you have people in crisis. [05:22.180 --> 05:24.280] Their lives are coming apart on them. [05:24.280 --> 05:27.120] For the most part, they're not lawyers. [05:27.120 --> 05:35.320] And even if they are lawyers, they seem to be just as vulnerable and get screwed around [05:35.320 --> 05:36.640] just as bad as non-lawyers. [05:36.640 --> 05:43.620] I believe outside of Fort Worth, if you go to Fort Worth, they have metal detectors going [05:43.620 --> 05:45.840] into the courthouse. [05:45.840 --> 05:52.920] The reason they put the metal detectors in was that a lawyer in a contentious divorce [05:52.920 --> 06:03.560] in Tarrant County, the lawyers on the other side did what is almost standard procedure [06:03.560 --> 06:09.040] is they have the wife accuse the husband of molesting the children. [06:09.040 --> 06:12.560] This is just standard procedure. [06:12.560 --> 06:17.400] If you're a man and you have children, especially girl children, and you get a divorce, they're [06:17.400 --> 06:23.120] going to accuse you of molesting the children, you can count on it. [06:23.120 --> 06:25.960] Makes no difference what the facts are. [06:25.960 --> 06:27.640] Nobody cares. [06:27.640 --> 06:31.000] You've got a lawyer on each side. [06:31.000 --> 06:34.440] They're both in business to make money. [06:34.440 --> 06:40.560] And when you get into one of these situations and you hire a lawyer, you think the lawyer [06:40.560 --> 06:43.100] is on your team. [06:43.100 --> 06:45.120] He is no such thing. [06:45.120 --> 06:48.440] He's on his team. [06:48.440 --> 06:56.260] It's like you're playing a four-sided chess board and everyone's represented on that board [06:56.260 --> 07:00.680] except your estranged spouse. [07:00.680 --> 07:02.760] You think it's you and the spouse. [07:02.760 --> 07:05.440] It's not you and the spouse. [07:05.440 --> 07:13.960] It's you on one corner, your lawyer on another corner, opposing counsel on another corner [07:13.960 --> 07:16.880] and the judge on the third corner. [07:16.880 --> 07:21.280] That's who you're dealing with when you get into a family law situation. [07:21.280 --> 07:32.280] And these two lawyers, they have relationships because they represent one client after another. [07:32.280 --> 07:34.960] Sometimes they'll be representing the female. [07:34.960 --> 07:35.960] Sometimes the male. [07:35.960 --> 07:39.320] They just switch back and forth. [07:39.320 --> 07:45.600] And there seems to be an unwritten rule that the lawyers will get together and look at [07:45.600 --> 07:53.800] the client's estate and then they determine how much of that estate they can swallow before [07:53.800 --> 07:59.160] they allow these two to get a conclusion to their divorce. [07:59.160 --> 08:06.040] And if you're trying to get an amicable divorce and you hire lawyers, you can forget about [08:06.040 --> 08:07.040] that. [08:07.040 --> 08:13.200] They'll take care of that nonsense and they'll get you at one another's throats so that [08:13.200 --> 08:21.880] they can churn the case and swallow as much of your estate as they possibly can. [08:21.880 --> 08:26.200] Then they'll let this thing come to some kind of fruition. [08:26.200 --> 08:33.280] And the judge, having risen up to his position from being a lawyer in amongst this same pool [08:33.280 --> 08:36.680] of sharks, helps them in the process. [08:36.680 --> 08:43.600] Now, whether or not they're paying the judges in the background, that's a question we're [08:43.600 --> 08:56.960] still trying to answer because nothing else seems to explain this outrageous corruption. [08:56.960 --> 09:01.000] And I have someone on that I want to speak to that issue. [09:01.000 --> 09:07.720] His name is Ken Magnussen, you've already had him on here before, and he has had some [09:07.720 --> 09:09.440] major wins here lately. [09:09.440 --> 09:10.440] Ken? [09:10.440 --> 09:15.880] Oh, I guess Ken sounds a lot better when he's muted. [09:15.880 --> 09:18.120] Okay, there you go, Ken. [09:18.120 --> 09:19.120] Now we should be... [09:19.120 --> 09:20.120] Can you hear me now? [09:20.120 --> 09:21.600] Yeah, I can hear you. [09:21.600 --> 09:28.560] Yeah, I heard your lead-in to this and the issue that seems to be happening in the family [09:28.560 --> 09:33.600] courts and this seems to be happening all over the United States, it's not just Texas. [09:33.600 --> 09:39.720] These people all go to various types of judicial and attorney conferences and apparently there's [09:39.720 --> 09:44.560] some backroom courses on how best to manipulate the process. [09:44.560 --> 09:49.660] Now, one thing I'm going to say though is that not just because they can doesn't mean [09:49.660 --> 09:52.400] they do manipulate every single one. [09:52.400 --> 09:57.080] It's just a question of whether or not the facts and the process lends itself to that [09:57.080 --> 09:58.080] procedure. [09:58.080 --> 10:03.720] And one of the things we're seeing is there was an advanced education course that was [10:03.720 --> 10:11.960] done in 2013 by the State Bar of Texas in San Antonio and they had a guest speaker on [10:11.960 --> 10:18.000] that did a presentation about what they call high conflict personality types. [10:18.000 --> 10:23.600] And essentially these were people that they have identified by psychologists as being [10:23.600 --> 10:26.640] people who create a problem. [10:26.640 --> 10:32.240] They want it all their way and they really resent the fact that somebody wants to divorce [10:32.240 --> 10:38.440] them or even questions what they're doing and they will foment additional litigation. [10:38.440 --> 10:44.840] Well, this is right to the order for the attorneys that want to run the bills up for the case [10:44.840 --> 10:47.440] and to manipulate the case. [10:47.440 --> 10:52.820] So there's a whole slew of allegations that are filed. [10:52.820 --> 10:55.880] No facts are found, just allegations. [10:55.880 --> 11:04.380] And apparently the family law judges, apparently innuendo is as good as actual fact. [11:04.380 --> 11:12.300] So they'll suddenly foment a whole change in custody and they'll change who pays child [11:12.300 --> 11:13.300] support. [11:13.300 --> 11:18.720] They'll order all of these additional lawyers and social studies people onto the case. [11:18.720 --> 11:25.040] And just so people realize this, they have potential amicus attorneys, amicus attorneys [11:25.040 --> 11:29.720] in Texas, as in most states, actually work for the courts. [11:29.720 --> 11:36.880] Now we're still at a loss as to what they actually do for the courts, but they bring [11:36.880 --> 11:41.920] them in and both parties end up paying their fees. [11:41.920 --> 11:46.880] Then there's an ad litem attorney that can be brought in, which is brought in for the [11:46.880 --> 11:48.760] interest of the child. [11:48.760 --> 11:56.400] In some cases where maybe you have a situation where you've got a father that's maybe convicted [11:56.400 --> 12:05.760] on drug possession or whatever, and the mother's an alcoholic or maybe she has mental problems [12:05.760 --> 12:12.280] or something, you could see where there may be a legitimate necessity to have the child [12:12.280 --> 12:18.800] represented by somebody that's supposed to have an independent representation there and [12:18.800 --> 12:20.480] preserve the interest of the child. [12:20.480 --> 12:26.840] However, in the cases where the parents are perfectly able to function and the only thing [12:26.840 --> 12:34.640] that created this entire process is the divorce, this is just a fomenting of more process in [12:34.640 --> 12:36.320] order to run up the bill. [12:36.320 --> 12:41.840] Usually it's designed to put one of the parties in trouble monetarily. [12:41.840 --> 12:48.160] It's a battle of economic attrition and that's part of what they do. [12:48.160 --> 12:51.960] Now, one of the things before we get into some of the stories that I've been collecting [12:51.960 --> 12:57.880] over the past two years in Texas as well as elsewhere, and this isn't limited to the United [12:57.880 --> 12:58.880] States. [12:58.880 --> 13:02.880] I also have a contact in Canada and they're doing the same thing in Canada in the family [13:02.880 --> 13:06.960] courts there too, so this is an equal opportunity. [13:06.960 --> 13:18.760] When I went to Australia, that was the reason they brought me to Australia, so it's everywhere. [13:18.760 --> 13:24.880] What it is, is when they find a good process to steal money from people or, well, we call [13:24.880 --> 13:31.200] it stealing, they call it legal work, it's propagated around the planet. [13:31.200 --> 13:35.840] It's like, ching, ching, I can now put my kids through graduate school, I can buy that [13:35.840 --> 13:40.920] new Jaguar, and that kind of thing. [13:40.920 --> 13:45.000] There doesn't seem to be any thought process to whether it's fair or equitable or even [13:45.000 --> 13:51.420] legal what they're doing, but in any event, one of the biggest things that you see in [13:51.420 --> 13:57.200] these cases is the fact that there doesn't seem to be any real legal judicial process [13:57.200 --> 13:58.340] occurring. [13:58.340 --> 14:04.600] It's hearings without court reporters, it's hearings where the attorneys go and meet in [14:04.600 --> 14:11.240] the judge's chamber, suddenly witnesses that were going to come out and testify on your [14:11.240 --> 14:18.400] side are excluded, only one side's witnesses testify, there's no actual physical evidence [14:18.400 --> 14:23.440] introduced such as photographs or documents. [14:23.440 --> 14:29.200] This is the hallmark of exactly what they need to do if they don't have it on the record [14:29.200 --> 14:31.880] to essentially waive your rights. [14:31.880 --> 14:38.000] If your attorney is not putting everything on the record, you waive your rights and that's [14:38.000 --> 14:41.400] come out of the appellate courts in every state of the union. [14:41.400 --> 14:46.160] The issue here is the only reason you go to trial and to make sure that everybody dots [14:46.160 --> 14:52.120] the I's and crosses the D's is to preserve the error for appeal. [14:52.120 --> 14:55.440] If you're sitting there in a case or about to go in a case, oh, I don't want to go to [14:55.440 --> 15:01.240] the appellate court, well, setting the stage to go to the appellate court may be the deterrent [15:01.240 --> 15:06.440] necessary to get the attorneys to do the right thing and the judge not to step over the line, [15:06.440 --> 15:10.820] well, maybe not as far over the line as they had in the past. [15:10.820 --> 15:15.140] The issue at this point is that for people who are listening about any kind of court [15:15.140 --> 15:18.160] action, you always want to have a court reporter. [15:18.160 --> 15:24.480] Recently, we've been doing some research out on Lexis and finding some new case law and [15:24.480 --> 15:31.320] provisions for court reporters and there's some political discussion now, as has been [15:31.320 --> 15:37.240] in the couple of states, have implemented essentially recording, video and audio recording [15:37.240 --> 15:43.800] in the courts and it's maintained by a separate organization, not the courts themselves. [15:43.800 --> 15:49.200] That's a great deterrent to abuse of power and there has been some movement in Texas [15:49.200 --> 15:53.800] by a number of legislators to implement that in Texas. [15:53.800 --> 15:59.280] That's going to be the end of the gravy train form because if they can't control the transcripts [15:59.280 --> 16:06.500] and they can't control editing out the salty comments by the judge, just FYI, the issue [16:06.500 --> 16:12.840] here in Texas that we've come across is that the requirement of the court reporter is what [16:12.840 --> 16:14.820] they call verbatim. [16:14.820 --> 16:20.160] That means when the judge says strike that from the record, he doesn't mean strike that [16:20.160 --> 16:26.040] from the record, he means that he's indicating put strike that from the record on the record. [16:26.040 --> 16:29.280] They're not supposed to omit those comments from the record. [16:29.280 --> 16:30.700] They're not supposed to omit anything. [16:30.700 --> 16:37.640] The court reporter's requirement, clearly by statute, is to record every single utterance. [16:37.640 --> 16:41.760] Okay, hang on, we are about to go to break. [16:41.760 --> 16:45.160] I do have the phone lines open.

[19:54.040 --> 19:58.480] We are back with Randy Kelton, Deborah Stevens, Rule of Law Radio, here with our special guest [19:58.480 --> 20:04.360] Ken Magnussen and we're talking about family law, go ahead Ken. [20:04.360 --> 20:09.080] Well we were talking about the court reporters, so the issue that's come up about court reporters [20:09.080 --> 20:13.880] though is the idea of whether or not, this is a theory and in Texas we've been doing [20:13.880 --> 20:17.820] some research on it and haven't found anything definitive, but there doesn't seem to be any [20:17.820 --> 20:21.920] statute that prohibits you bringing in your own court reporter. [20:21.920 --> 20:28.040] So we've got a couple of cases we've been following here in Tarrant County, Texas where [20:28.040 --> 20:33.560] apparently the judges are getting their court coordinator to run interference and send the [20:33.560 --> 20:37.720] private court reporters home instead of allowing them in the courtroom. [20:37.720 --> 20:43.840] So there was one case that I followed where the pro se litigants essentially filed a motion [20:43.840 --> 20:50.960] to, which hasn't been heard yet, in order to allow them to have for economic efficiency [20:50.960 --> 20:55.920] to have their own private court reporter in there to record the events because a private [20:55.920 --> 21:00.480] court reporter for most people in the state of Texas will only cost you somewhere between [21:00.480 --> 21:05.240] two and four hundred dollars for an entire day and you get the transcript. [21:05.240 --> 21:10.780] For a court reporter, the official court reporter, they get paid a salary by either the county [21:10.780 --> 21:15.320] or the state depending on what kind of court they're in and then they get to charge so [21:15.320 --> 21:17.300] many dollars per page. [21:17.300 --> 21:23.280] So a standard afternoon, four hours of testimony in a court proceeding may cost you six to [21:23.280 --> 21:31.920] eight hundred dollars, which seems ridiculous as compared with four hundred dollars to get [21:31.920 --> 21:33.760] the entire day. [21:33.760 --> 21:37.680] The other thing court reporters are required to do in Texas is they keep a list of what [21:37.680 --> 21:42.000] the motions are, I mean objections, that are followed in open court. [21:42.000 --> 21:48.960] If somebody files an objection, they're supposed to keep who made the objection, what the judge [21:48.960 --> 21:52.600] ruled on the objection and all of that and that's independent of the court record. [21:52.600 --> 21:59.520] So you could ask for that list of objections and rulings by the court and then there's [21:59.520 --> 22:02.840] another thing that they keep track of which is the exhibit. [22:02.840 --> 22:07.440] All of the exhibits that are submitted to a court are supposed to be presented to the [22:07.440 --> 22:12.360] court reporter for marking into the court record and that's when they mark them. [22:12.360 --> 22:16.360] We have cases where we've been following where there was no evidence admitted and yet the [22:16.360 --> 22:24.480] court judges made a ruling in the case based on what they saw but what was not admitted. [22:24.480 --> 22:30.120] Now this sounds like, I mean, this almost comes down to the idea of witchcraft. [22:30.120 --> 22:35.000] I mean it has nothing to do with law, it's just incantations. [22:35.000 --> 22:40.080] I actually heard an attorney out of Dallas one time explain that, that it's almost like [22:40.080 --> 22:49.680] ranting some sort of incantation before the court and whoever has the best incantation [22:49.680 --> 22:55.760] essentially wins the motion and to a stranger it may sound like witchcraft. [22:55.760 --> 23:01.640] But in any event, just for those that are listening, that's a metaphor, I'm not really [23:01.640 --> 23:04.960] meaning it's witchcraft. [23:04.960 --> 23:07.200] Sometimes you have to be pedantic about these things. [23:07.200 --> 23:18.520] Now wait a minute, it could be, the psychology as far as the court is concerned is voodoo [23:18.520 --> 23:22.200] science so maybe the courts are doing witchcraft. [23:22.200 --> 23:27.040] It's certainly not following the rule of law. [23:27.040 --> 23:33.520] Right well I just call that plain old vanilla corruption so in any event back to the courtroom [23:33.520 --> 23:36.920] so you need to make sure you have a court reporter every time and some of the things [23:36.920 --> 23:42.120] you need to watch is we're noticing in some courts and I've observed this too where there's [23:42.120 --> 23:46.680] kind of a secret sign language between the judge and the court reporter and all of a [23:46.680 --> 23:51.240] sudden the judge might give a signal and the people litigants in the courtroom that aren't [23:51.240 --> 23:55.880] privy to this, they have no idea, including if you're a pro se litigant you're in there [23:55.880 --> 24:00.520] and you don't see it being done, all of a sudden you're off the record. [24:00.520 --> 24:05.280] All of a sudden the court reporter's not taking down the record and nobody told you. [24:05.280 --> 24:11.720] So one of the things that I suggest that people should consider doing is to ask when are we [24:11.720 --> 24:16.460] on the record and when are we off the record, please your honor I'd like to be notified [24:16.460 --> 24:22.200] of when we're going off the record so I can enter an objection or I can concur and agree [24:22.200 --> 24:26.200] with going off the record. [24:26.200 --> 24:30.120] And this is going to create a problem for the judges because they can't necessarily [24:30.120 --> 24:34.360] control an independent court reporter as well if you bring an independent court reporter [24:34.360 --> 24:35.360] in. [24:35.360 --> 24:40.320] So we're trying that, we're testing that idea right now. [24:40.320 --> 24:45.880] But I think having a government code which gives you the statutory right to bring in [24:45.880 --> 24:49.520] your own court reporter is absolutely essential. [24:49.520 --> 24:55.140] The idea of an independent court reporter, I've seen it done by attorneys where they [24:55.140 --> 24:58.760] bring their own court reporter in for exactly the same reason I mentioned. [24:58.760 --> 25:03.800] Your court reporter that you pay a salary to can come in and take a transcript for the [25:03.800 --> 25:07.800] entire afternoon and only cost you a few hundred dollars whereas a transcript for the entire [25:07.800 --> 25:12.280] afternoon is going to cost you twelve hundred dollars with the official court reporter. [25:12.280 --> 25:16.760] So the issue and the issue is is both are registered in the state and licensed and have [25:16.760 --> 25:23.920] all of the appropriate you know official testing that they did so they're they're bona fide [25:23.920 --> 25:28.840] and the issue here is that you know why do we have official court reporters you know [25:28.840 --> 25:29.840] taking precedence? [25:29.840 --> 25:30.840] Well we don't know. [25:30.840 --> 25:34.920] We don't see any reason why other than the government code makes it required for the [25:34.920 --> 25:37.040] court to have an official court reporter. [25:37.040 --> 25:41.800] But the one story I'll tell you about was a case involving an attorney out of Dallas [25:41.800 --> 25:45.500] who had a case in a district court in Sherman, Texas. [25:45.500 --> 25:51.400] I was called in to be a court watcher that day and I and she knew that I was also writing [25:51.400 --> 25:57.960] a white paper for the state senate one of the committees on the issue of how the judicial [25:57.960 --> 26:02.640] conduct commission operated and how the issue of recusals operated. [26:02.640 --> 26:09.440] Well anyway this the the background of the case was the judge in Sherman, Texas was closely [26:09.440 --> 26:14.760] associated with a an attorney in town and that attorney in town had his office caddied [26:14.760 --> 26:21.920] corner to the courthouse in Sherman and essentially walked over and filed a motion to have money [26:21.920 --> 26:29.160] taken from the escrow account of the attorneys the attorney that I knew from her client's [26:29.160 --> 26:34.640] escrow account for the ex-wife to pay for a new truck for the son who just reached the [26:34.640 --> 26:35.960] age of 17. [26:35.960 --> 26:42.280] Well there's no provision in the family code anywhere where the court has discretion to [26:42.280 --> 26:47.960] give money to one party or the other in order to pay for the son's truck. [26:47.960 --> 26:48.960] No provision anywhere. [26:48.960 --> 26:50.800] This is clearly abuse of power. [26:50.800 --> 26:54.880] This isn't abuse of discretion let me let me let me be pedantic about that abuse of [26:54.880 --> 27:00.760] power is where you violated the statute where you have no discretion abuse of discretion [27:00.760 --> 27:04.200] is where the rules allow you to have some discretion. [27:04.200 --> 27:09.000] Most of what the judges that are doing corruption in the courts are abusing their power not [27:09.000 --> 27:11.000] their discretion. [27:11.000 --> 27:15.360] Well the attorney didn't even file a motion he just walked over there with an order and [27:15.360 --> 27:20.080] ex parte had a meeting with the judge the judge signed the order. [27:20.080 --> 27:25.800] Next thing he finds as she finds out the attorney that I knew she finds out that there's been [27:25.800 --> 27:31.200] a debit from the accountant contacts the court looks at the court docket sheet where this [27:31.200 --> 27:35.600] is this order has been entered and there's no motion so she files a motion to essentially [27:35.600 --> 27:40.200] vacate this order indicating there was no motion nor hearing scheduled for it nor any [27:40.200 --> 27:44.400] notice of the motion or the hearing or the order. [27:44.400 --> 27:49.560] So the judge essentially denies the motion without even having a hearing so she files [27:49.560 --> 27:51.880] a motion to recuse the judge. [27:51.880 --> 27:57.360] So the judge on his own decides no I'm not going to hear that and denies that so she [27:57.360 --> 28:04.560] files a motion to rehear and essentially indicates that there has to be a hearing on this issue [28:04.560 --> 28:09.720] based on the fact that this was an ex parte hearing and it rises to the level of misconduct. [28:09.720 --> 28:13.960] Well that got the judge's attention enough for him to at least schedule a hearing. [28:13.960 --> 28:24.000] So my being there was to create a little bit of intrigue for the judge as to what was going [28:24.000 --> 28:25.120] on. [28:25.120 --> 28:33.080] So we walked in separate like I didn't even know her and had a briefcase and a notepad [28:33.080 --> 28:36.400] and of course the bailiff immediately comes up and says you have business with the court [28:36.400 --> 28:38.400] and I said I'm just observing. [28:38.400 --> 28:42.840] Well he says who are you and I said well frankly does that really matter it's a public court [28:42.840 --> 28:48.760] room and he says well why are you here and I said if you must know I'm writing a white [28:48.760 --> 28:55.200] paper for the state legislature can I have your name now for interfering with that process? [28:55.200 --> 29:00.160] Zoom right back to the judge's chamber goes the bailiff. [29:00.160 --> 29:06.480] So a few seconds later the judge peeks his head around the corner and looks out and I [29:06.480 --> 29:12.320] don't even look up he catches I catch him out of the peripheral vision and the attorney [29:12.320 --> 29:17.400] I knew brought her own court reporter with her and they start setting up and the judge [29:17.400 --> 29:22.280] comes out and announces the case and says you know well counsel who's this? [29:22.280 --> 29:25.020] She says that's my court reporter. [29:25.020 --> 29:26.760] Well counsel we have our court reporter. [29:26.760 --> 29:29.240] No you have your court reporter I have my court reporter. [29:29.240 --> 29:33.680] We all have our own court reporter and at that point in time the judge turned around [29:33.680 --> 29:39.920] and looked at me looks back at the court reporter and decides maybe we ought to have a hearing [29:39.920 --> 29:45.560] and I ought to notify the administrative judge and essentially adjourns the hearing. [29:45.560 --> 29:54.400] Okay hang on Randy Kelton, Deborah Stevens, Rule of Law Radio, I called in number 512-646-1984 [29:54.400 --> 29:56.840] we'll be right back.

[33:40.120 --> 33:41.120] Okay, we are back. [33:41.120 --> 33:48.800] Randy Kelton, Deborah Stevens here with our special guest Ken Magnussen and we were talking [33:48.800 --> 33:52.680] about you finished your story. [33:52.680 --> 33:58.120] Well, you know, I finished the story about what happened on that one day. [33:58.120 --> 34:04.120] As it turns out, there was an actual recusal hearing that they had and I saw a couple days [34:04.120 --> 34:08.560] of testimony and they pretty much proved their case but the administrative judge that had [34:08.560 --> 34:12.200] been called in essentially didn't find enough to recuse him. [34:12.200 --> 34:18.840] Now, the standard of review for recusal is about the appearance of bias. [34:18.840 --> 34:23.540] You don't have to prove the bias, you just have to prove the appearance of bias and essentially [34:23.540 --> 34:26.480] that's not what's being heard in the courts. [34:26.480 --> 34:31.720] And essentially the appellate courts are turning a blind eye to selective cases in which they [34:31.720 --> 34:33.880] don't really care. [34:33.880 --> 34:38.320] There's a case out of Collin County that I've been following for a couple of years, a friend [34:38.320 --> 34:44.480] of a friend was telling me about and essentially there's been criminal charges filed so the [34:44.480 --> 34:50.840] district attorney is involved in covering up crimes by one of his former assistant district [34:50.840 --> 34:57.680] attorneys, Ben Smith, who is now a district judge and from another judge that I know in [34:57.680 --> 35:01.600] that county has been voted the worst judge in the county. [35:01.600 --> 35:06.920] So the issue is he doesn't seem to care to follow the law. [35:06.920 --> 35:12.500] He thinks this is a fascist state in which he is one of the czars. [35:12.500 --> 35:18.320] But the issue of all of this is still if they're going to go to that extent, the only way you're [35:18.320 --> 35:22.260] going to ever win is you've got to fight it and you've got to make sure you preserve the [35:22.260 --> 35:27.640] error for appeal and you've got to not, you know, if you go into court and they get you [35:27.640 --> 35:34.320] to make the deal, you sign the deal instead of getting a judicial decision in an open [35:34.320 --> 35:39.160] trial in open court on the record, you waive all your rights. [35:39.160 --> 35:44.920] So the one thing that I do advise that I would never ever do is ever take a mediated settlement [35:44.920 --> 35:45.920] agreement. [35:45.920 --> 35:50.880] The issue is you can still go to the mediation, you can still discuss what you want to do [35:50.880 --> 35:57.340] and see if you're close to a meeting and an agreement, but never sign it on that day because [35:57.340 --> 36:05.280] almost nobody can sign a contract that has all of the details necessary to make it comprehensive [36:05.280 --> 36:10.720] for a divorce decree and visitation in one day. [36:10.720 --> 36:16.360] But the attorneys, if any attorney ever tries to rush you to do something, it's never in [36:16.360 --> 36:17.360] your best interest. [36:17.360 --> 36:20.800] I have never seen a case where an attorney says, no, no, this is really in your best [36:20.800 --> 36:23.280] interest, where it turns out it's in your best interest. [36:23.280 --> 36:24.720] I haven't found one yet. [36:24.720 --> 36:31.080] I've been watching the system for 30 years now and I've never seen a case where rushing [36:31.080 --> 36:36.680] to judgment or rushing to agreement gets you a better deal than sitting down and negotiating [36:36.680 --> 36:41.200] it in a calm, collective, meticulous manner. [36:41.200 --> 36:42.600] And you should always sleep on it. [36:42.600 --> 36:47.640] You put together the agreement, the divorce decree and visitation, and you think of all [36:47.640 --> 36:51.960] the ways it can go wrong and you don't want the contract to blow up so you all have to [36:51.960 --> 36:53.600] end up back in court. [36:53.600 --> 37:00.240] You want the contract to go into some sort of enforcement and penalty process where there [37:00.240 --> 37:08.160] are specific requirements that were agreed upon that have to be paid to the prevailing [37:08.160 --> 37:14.080] party based on overt actions taken by the other party in violation of the agreement. [37:14.080 --> 37:17.560] If there's enough of these, they don't have to be draconian, they just have to be, every [37:17.560 --> 37:23.600] time the child is brought back to the party late, that's a late notice. [37:23.600 --> 37:29.400] The other party gets a late notice and essentially you could have something like three of those [37:29.400 --> 37:35.240] before it counts and then there's a penalty and the penalty might be $150 or $50, whatever [37:35.240 --> 37:36.720] the party thinks is reasonable. [37:36.720 --> 37:44.520] It's not draconian, it's not so expensive as to make everybody go bankrupt or whatever [37:44.520 --> 37:45.520] overnight. [37:45.520 --> 37:50.240] But the idea is to put all these little penalties in there so every time something happens with [37:50.240 --> 37:53.640] regards to visitation, also equity in visitation. [37:53.640 --> 38:02.400] I saw a draft divorce decree with visitation from an attorney out of Houston and basically [38:02.400 --> 38:09.400] he talked about if visitation is not done one time because the child isn't brought to [38:09.400 --> 38:14.360] the visitation site or exchange between the parents, that visitation just doesn't go away [38:14.360 --> 38:18.480] like it was lost, it goes into the column as you owe one. [38:18.480 --> 38:23.600] If you don't make it up in a period of reasonable period of time, like in two weeks or a month, [38:23.600 --> 38:29.440] it then becomes time and a half visitation, the idea being a penalty now of extra time [38:29.440 --> 38:35.920] with the child based on the fact that the one party didn't provide notice or a special [38:35.920 --> 38:38.460] exception for visitation. [38:38.460 --> 38:43.680] So the idea here is that there ought to be some sort, and I'm not saying that the parties [38:43.680 --> 38:48.400] can't agree to say, oh, okay, you're going on a special trip, so we'll go ahead and I'll [38:48.400 --> 38:53.260] waive my rights for visitation this week, but I'll get them back on another week when [38:53.260 --> 38:57.680] you're supposed to have the child, I'll get the child, but we're going to switch days [38:57.680 --> 39:02.280] now in order for you to go bring the child to visit with their grandparents or something [39:02.280 --> 39:03.440] like that. [39:03.440 --> 39:08.380] There's no reason that that can't be included into a divorce settlement or agreement and [39:08.380 --> 39:13.120] allow that to occur, but the only way that that's going to occur and parties are going [39:13.120 --> 39:20.640] to be reasonable about discussing these possibilities is if and only if there are significant consequences [39:20.640 --> 39:22.440] if you don't, if you're not cooperative. [39:22.440 --> 39:28.160] If you're not cooperative and the one party goes to the court in the contract, the judge [39:28.160 --> 39:33.840] shall award attorney's fees and court costs and penalties to the party that prevails based [39:33.840 --> 39:38.000] on the failure of the other party to meet the requirements for the contract. [39:38.000 --> 39:43.680] You just got to make sure that the contract is absolutely bulletproof from the standpoint [39:43.680 --> 39:49.100] of it's almost like computer programming where you look at every possible situation that [39:49.100 --> 39:52.760] could occur and if it occurs, there's got to be something in the contract that addresses [39:52.760 --> 39:54.880] that situation. [39:54.880 --> 40:02.680] It sounds more ethereal discussing it like this in generalities, but the idea of notifying [40:02.680 --> 40:11.320] the parent about medical treatment or notifying the parent about a dental appointment or notifying [40:11.320 --> 40:14.720] the other parent about a potential school outing or whatever. [40:14.720 --> 40:18.400] The idea is the notice needs to be the process. [40:18.400 --> 40:26.080] You don't do the notice in time and I've seen the allowances of saying, look, you get three [40:26.080 --> 40:32.240] oopses where you ran into problems and you had an emergency and those don't count and [40:32.240 --> 40:36.920] you get to use that chip and you get three emergencies a year where you don't have to [40:36.920 --> 40:41.640] call the other party, but after the three emergencies are up, if you don't call the [40:41.640 --> 40:44.940] other party, bingo, now the penalty clause goes into effect. [40:44.940 --> 40:48.920] So you didn't call me and tell me you were going to be late bringing the child or that [40:48.920 --> 40:50.800] you weren't going to bring the child at all. [40:50.800 --> 40:55.520] Not only now do you have to make up the time, but because you didn't call me to tell me [40:55.520 --> 41:00.040] in advance, you now have to make up the time with time and a half. [41:00.040 --> 41:04.820] I get to visit and just because I'm saying time and a half, there's no statutory requirement. [41:04.820 --> 41:05.820] This is all negotiable. [41:05.820 --> 41:08.160] You could make it double time. [41:08.160 --> 41:13.960] Whatever works, but the biggest issue is any of these things that are written in the contract, [41:13.960 --> 41:19.120] a divorce decree, an agreement would be what's good for the goose is good for the gander, [41:19.120 --> 41:22.600] which means if you can't meet your obligations and you're late all the time and you have [41:22.600 --> 41:31.920] a proclivity not to follow the rules per the letter of the contract, then you might think [41:31.920 --> 41:37.880] twice about making that provision of the contract absolute because it's going to come down on [41:37.880 --> 41:38.960] you then. [41:38.960 --> 41:40.120] So it's got to be equal. [41:40.120 --> 41:43.120] It's got to be fair, and that's one of the reasons why the judges really can't interfere [41:43.120 --> 41:50.860] with it because long as both parties agree to it and it's not unilateral, the judge really [41:50.860 --> 41:51.860] can't do anything about it. [41:51.860 --> 41:56.520] It's a contract between two individuals and you have the constitutional right to do that [41:56.520 --> 42:01.200] and the courts can't interfere with that. [42:01.200 --> 42:07.280] What we were talking about, what I was talking about in the lead in is this is what the lawyers [42:07.280 --> 42:16.800] will allow to happen once they've extracted all of your estate that they can, so two reasonable [42:16.800 --> 42:24.880] people going into a divorce situation should always be ready to come to a mediated settlement [42:24.880 --> 42:30.560] rather than take all their money and put them both in debt to lawyers who have no other [42:30.560 --> 42:34.080] purpose than to turn the case. [42:34.080 --> 42:37.280] So, reasonable people will do that. [42:37.280 --> 42:43.160] The problem is the cases that only seem to be in the courts that cause all of the problems [42:43.160 --> 42:51.220] are the 10 to 20 percent that are essentially those high conflict personality disorder individuals [42:51.220 --> 42:53.400] who are in one side of the marriage or the other. [42:53.400 --> 42:59.600] Now, we're not even talking about this necessarily rising to the level of spousal abuse or anything, [42:59.600 --> 43:02.520] but it can. [43:02.520 --> 43:07.160] The issue here is that they'll file false charges and everything and it's almost impossible [43:07.160 --> 43:11.120] to negotiate with a maniac. [43:11.120 --> 43:16.120] Basically if the other party is not reasonable and they're already making lies and innuendos [43:16.120 --> 43:20.040] and pointing the finger, this is what the attorneys like and the attorneys get together [43:20.040 --> 43:28.560] and actually they'll pour gasoline on that fire to create more conflict in order to just [43:28.560 --> 43:31.040] run up the bills. [43:31.040 --> 43:33.680] That's exactly what I was saying earlier. [43:33.680 --> 43:34.680] Right. [43:34.680 --> 43:35.680] Okay. [43:35.680 --> 43:36.680] We are about to go to break. [43:36.680 --> 43:38.920] Jeff, I see you there. [43:38.920 --> 43:41.080] We will get to you very shortly. [43:41.080 --> 43:42.080] So hang on.

[46:53.400 --> 46:56.720] Jeff, what happened with your trial? [46:56.720 --> 47:03.660] All right, well, thanks guys for having me on and what happened is real swift and easy, [47:03.660 --> 47:08.340] so I shouldn't be on the air for more than just a couple of minutes. [47:08.340 --> 47:10.200] It got postponed. [47:10.200 --> 47:15.080] Oh, I can't believe they postponed it. [47:15.080 --> 47:19.920] Did they have your motion hearings? [47:19.920 --> 47:23.160] Absolutely not. [47:23.160 --> 47:25.320] Why did they postpone it? [47:25.320 --> 47:31.000] Well, on the continuance, they claimed that they're having a murder trial, so that that's [47:31.000 --> 47:32.560] more important. [47:32.560 --> 47:34.120] Bill them for your time. [47:34.120 --> 47:36.600] Oh, I could, yeah. [47:36.600 --> 47:39.760] Bill them for your time. [47:39.760 --> 47:46.280] They didn't schedule that murder trial the day before they forced you to come down there [47:46.280 --> 47:48.880] and sit in Mississippi for a week. [47:48.880 --> 47:52.340] No, the murder happened four years ago. [47:52.340 --> 47:55.000] So bill them for your time. [47:55.000 --> 47:56.480] Okay. [47:56.480 --> 48:00.360] They deliberately brought you down there knowing they weren't going to have a trial. [48:00.360 --> 48:04.080] Well, and then they arrested me, if you remember last week. [48:04.080 --> 48:05.080] Yes. [48:05.080 --> 48:09.440] They arrested me for me in jail and they extended my bond without a bond hearing and you said [48:09.440 --> 48:13.360] that they have to have a bond hearing. [48:13.360 --> 48:14.360] Explain that to Ken. [48:14.360 --> 48:15.360] Okay. [48:15.360 --> 48:16.360] Hi, Ken. [48:16.360 --> 48:19.840] My name is Jeff from Mississippi. [48:19.840 --> 48:22.880] I think we've talked to you before. [48:22.880 --> 48:29.120] The courts here in Mississippi, since the population is so small and the towns are so [48:29.120 --> 48:33.280] small, they don't have an ongoing court term. [48:33.280 --> 48:36.120] So what they do is they're like a traveling circus. [48:36.120 --> 48:42.520] They'll come through a district and they'll open up for two weeks and have their courts [48:42.520 --> 48:47.320] and then they'll pack up their tents and leave and go off to another county. [48:47.320 --> 48:51.860] And so what they're doing to me and what they're doing to everybody, they've got this strategy [48:51.860 --> 48:57.180] that they will force you to come down to the courthouse and sit there for two weeks. [48:57.180 --> 48:59.520] So you have to miss work. [48:59.520 --> 49:04.640] And then if you're fighting your case, they'll just simply continue it. [49:04.640 --> 49:08.440] And then they'll force you to come back again and again and again. [49:08.440 --> 49:14.200] And if you don't put a stop to it, you'll be doing it for 20 or 30 years. [49:14.200 --> 49:18.120] And so they beat you into submission by forcing you. [49:18.120 --> 49:20.720] And that's what happened this time. [49:20.720 --> 49:25.540] My attorney wrote me an email saying that I had to be here on the 20th. [49:25.540 --> 49:32.240] There's no court order that's summoned me to court or to the courthouse, just her private [49:32.240 --> 49:35.120] email, and she threatened me with arrest. [49:35.120 --> 49:39.040] And so when I got there on the 20th, she had me arrested. [49:39.040 --> 49:46.040] And sure enough, I went to jail and had to re-extend my bond, where they called the bail [49:46.040 --> 49:49.680] bondsman to re-extend it. [49:49.680 --> 49:50.680] And so that's what we did. [49:50.680 --> 49:52.320] And that's where we're at now. [49:52.320 --> 49:59.560] I got out and then I had a motions hearing set for the next Monday, the Monday that just [49:59.560 --> 50:00.560] passed. [50:00.560 --> 50:06.400] And lo and behold, they came in and continued that. [50:06.400 --> 50:07.680] And that's where we're at. [50:07.680 --> 50:14.040] Now I've got a couple of questions. [50:14.040 --> 50:16.880] Go ahead. [50:16.880 --> 50:19.280] Okay. [50:19.280 --> 50:25.760] When I set my motions hearing, I did not have an attorney at the time because it took the [50:25.760 --> 50:30.460] courts two months to get me an attorney. [50:30.460 --> 50:34.320] So for two months, I figured, well, I knew what they were going to do. [50:34.320 --> 50:37.400] They were going to get me an attorney at the last minute and then play stupid and then [50:37.400 --> 50:41.460] continue it because that's, you know, obviously that's what we're doing. [50:41.460 --> 50:47.680] So I filed my own motion and I filed all those motions that you told me to file. [50:47.680 --> 50:53.440] Well, then my attorney comes in and claims that she is not going to adjudicate those [50:53.440 --> 51:02.840] motions, that I will have to argue those myself and she will set a pro se hearing motion hearing. [51:02.840 --> 51:03.920] And so she did. [51:03.920 --> 51:10.720] I have an order that says order setting pro se motion for hearing. [51:10.720 --> 51:13.440] That is what got continued. [51:13.440 --> 51:21.080] It's my pro se motion, however, I wasn't at any kind of hearing to argue that. [51:21.080 --> 51:27.040] I was sitting in a courtroom when the clerk came in and handed me this continuance. [51:27.040 --> 51:31.480] So my question is, is, is I've got a pro se motion hearing. [51:31.480 --> 51:37.600] Why is my attorney getting a continuance for me when she's not even supposed to be there? [51:37.600 --> 51:38.600] Okay. [51:38.600 --> 51:45.800] First, this, and first question I have is, was there a motion for continuance filed and [51:45.800 --> 51:47.520] who filed it? [51:47.520 --> 51:52.760] No, there is no motion for continuance filed. [51:52.760 --> 51:55.640] You need to look at all the rules in Mississippi and Texas. [51:55.640 --> 51:58.240] You can't have a continuance unless there's good cause. [51:58.240 --> 52:04.160] The court can do one if they've got good cause, but they have to put it on the record. [52:04.160 --> 52:13.200] If they've done this multiple times, Randy, I'm thinking basically a writ of habeas corpus. [52:13.200 --> 52:14.520] It's time to stop this. [52:14.520 --> 52:20.120] They're doing this as a deliberate abusive process in order to punish him for bringing [52:20.120 --> 52:21.880] motions before the court. [52:21.880 --> 52:27.480] They're denying him his due process deliberately and that this is part of their pattern of [52:27.480 --> 52:39.640] conduct and that these motions, these continuances are being done ex parte by the prosecutor. [52:39.640 --> 52:42.920] And that's what I think is happening, but they're just not filing them. [52:42.920 --> 52:46.720] They come in and walk in and talk to the judge and said, well, we really ought to just push [52:46.720 --> 52:48.000] this off the next time. [52:48.000 --> 52:53.400] And everybody knows wink, wink, nod, nod what the deal is and why they're doing it. [52:53.400 --> 53:00.260] But why there isn't any actual document in the court record is a problem because I don't [53:00.260 --> 53:03.720] think they can grant a continuance, an actual continuous. [53:03.720 --> 53:06.600] The court can say, we have an emergency, we have to reschedule this. [53:06.600 --> 53:11.660] The question is, when did the court know they had an emergency and for what purpose did [53:11.660 --> 53:13.600] they have that emergency? [53:13.600 --> 53:21.760] And did they have reasonable opportunity to notice the parties prior to having them appear? [53:21.760 --> 53:25.280] And the issue is, if the answer is, yeah. [53:25.280 --> 53:30.040] You were sitting in the courthouse all week, right? [53:30.040 --> 53:34.880] Yes, I was allowed to go home for a couple of days. [53:34.880 --> 53:35.960] Okay. [53:35.960 --> 53:39.800] Did you notice that a hearing was taking place? [53:39.800 --> 53:46.520] Well, that's funny you ask because the date that my continuance is signed is the date [53:46.520 --> 53:50.160] that they let me have the day off from the courthouse. [53:50.160 --> 53:57.680] Well, I mean, while you were at the courthouse, were they holding a murder trial? [53:57.680 --> 53:59.080] Oh, yeah. [53:59.080 --> 54:00.080] Yeah. [54:00.080 --> 54:05.640] In fact, it was my judge that was in there presiding and then my DA was in the other [54:05.640 --> 54:09.320] courtroom holding plea negotiations. [54:09.320 --> 54:10.320] Yeah. [54:10.320 --> 54:17.640] Then you need to look at that murder trial case and- [54:17.640 --> 54:19.280] See when it was scheduled. [54:19.280 --> 54:20.280] Yeah. [54:20.280 --> 54:27.680] And how long the lawyers notified the court it would take to present their case. [54:27.680 --> 54:29.720] Okay. [54:29.720 --> 54:38.960] If it's in there and the court had been notified that this would take long enough [54:38.960 --> 54:45.040] that they wouldn't be able to get to your case, this is abuse of process. [54:45.040 --> 54:49.720] It is anyway. [54:49.720 --> 54:53.480] To have you come and sit in the courthouse, were you the only person there? [54:53.480 --> 54:56.560] No, the courthouse was full. [54:56.560 --> 54:59.320] I mean of people sitting waiting for their hearings. [54:59.320 --> 55:00.520] Oh, no. [55:00.520 --> 55:03.320] Hundreds of us. [55:03.320 --> 55:05.320] Get their names. [55:05.320 --> 55:07.160] Okay. [55:07.160 --> 55:13.040] So they had hundreds of you all sitting there waiting for a hearing. [55:13.040 --> 55:16.600] How many judges are there? [55:16.600 --> 55:19.960] Three. [55:19.960 --> 55:28.360] You need to get all of those names and this would go to a great RICO and absolutely a [55:28.360 --> 55:29.360] habeas. [55:29.360 --> 55:31.720] Go ahead, Kim. [55:31.720 --> 55:40.680] Back to my pro se, I have an order for a pro se hearing, so if they're going to continue [55:40.680 --> 55:48.160] my pro se motion hearing, don't they have to talk to me? [55:48.160 --> 55:54.160] I would think so, but if I were you, I would object to a pro se hearing. [55:54.160 --> 55:56.160] Okay. [55:56.160 --> 56:02.360] That lawyer is your lawyer and she has a duty to adjudicate these issues. [56:02.360 --> 56:03.360] Okay. [56:03.360 --> 56:08.960] Which raises, this is Ken again, which raises the other issue, which is why did she have [56:08.960 --> 56:13.400] you arrested? [56:13.400 --> 56:18.960] She didn't tell me at first, but after I was released, it was to re-extend my bond. [56:18.960 --> 56:22.080] She can do that in a motion. [56:22.080 --> 56:26.060] Why was an arrest necessary? [56:26.060 --> 56:27.360] About that? [56:27.360 --> 56:31.160] Why was an arrest necessary? [56:31.160 --> 56:32.160] That I have no idea. [56:32.160 --> 56:37.280] That's, I called in and asked that last time because you explained that I needed to go [56:37.280 --> 56:40.800] to a bond hearing and I never did. [56:40.800 --> 56:47.400] The police just took me off to jail from the lobby of the courthouse and I sat there and [56:47.400 --> 56:53.340] had to call a bail bondsman. [56:53.340 --> 56:56.240] Did you check to see if there was a warrant for your arrest? [56:56.240 --> 57:00.880] Yes, I did check for, if there's a warrant for my arrest, there is no warrant for my [57:00.880 --> 57:02.280] arrest. [57:02.280 --> 57:08.840] Oh, so the bailiff arrested you without a warrant? [57:08.840 --> 57:10.520] Exactly. [57:10.520 --> 57:11.880] Wonderful. [57:11.880 --> 57:13.340] Okay. [57:13.340 --> 57:19.320] That should get, you should do a false imprisonment suit for that one. [57:19.320 --> 57:20.760] Okay. [57:20.760 --> 57:21.760] Against the bailiff. [57:21.760 --> 57:22.760] All right. [57:22.760 --> 57:33.040] Send the county commissioners a tort letter notifying them of the false arrest and of [57:33.040 --> 57:38.400] your intent to sue, notifying them of how, that you were harmed and the amount to which [57:38.400 --> 57:47.800] you were harmed, that you were arrested without a warrant for a, in order to reinstate bail [57:47.800 --> 57:53.680] for something for which you shouldn't, there was no reason to arrest you in the first place. [57:53.680 --> 57:54.680] Okay. [57:54.680 --> 57:55.680] Got it. [57:55.680 --> 57:56.680] That'll get your attention. [57:56.680 --> 57:59.880] I've got one more question. [57:59.880 --> 58:00.880] Okay. [58:00.880 --> 58:01.880] Hold on. [58:01.880 --> 58:03.760] Let's pick this up on the other side. [58:03.760 --> 58:10.480] This is Randy Kelton, Denver Stevens here with Ken Magnussen, blue of our radio. [58:10.480 --> 58:15.720] I called in number 512-646-1984. [58:15.720 --> 58:19.560] We'll keep the phone lines open all night, so if you have a question or a comment, give [58:19.560 --> 58:20.560] us a call. [58:20.560 --> 58:25.520] We're going to our top of the hour break, so we'll be gone for about three minutes, [58:25.520 --> 58:27.800] but when we come back, we'll finish up with Jeff. [58:27.800 --> 58:33.680] And then if we don't have any more callers, we're going to talk about a certain district [58:33.680 --> 58:36.600] judge in Tarrant County getting clobbered. [58:36.600 --> 58:37.600] Okay. [58:37.600 --> 58:50.200] We'll be right back. [58:50.200 --> 58:55.640] The Bible remains the most popular book in the world, yet countless readers are frustrated [58:55.640 --> 58:58.440] because they struggle to understand it. [58:58.440 --> 59:03.840] Some new translations try to help by simplifying the text, but in the process can compromise [59:03.840 --> 59:07.080] the profound meaning of the scripture. [59:07.080 --> 59:08.880] Consider the recovery version. [59:08.880 --> 59:14.780] First, this new translation is extremely faithful and accurate, but the real story is the more [59:14.780 --> 59:18.520] than 9,000 explanatory footnotes. [59:18.520 --> 59:23.520] Difficult and profound passages are opened up in a marvelous way, providing an entrance [59:23.520 --> 59:28.160] into the riches of the word beyond which you've ever experienced before. [59:28.160 --> 59:33.360] Bibles for America would like to give you a free recovery version simply for the asking.

[01:00:53.880 --> 01:00:58.320] In the news, not guilty, that's the verdict handed down on the fourth and final day in [01:00:58.320 --> 01:01:02.880] the Austin, Texas trial of Antonio Beeler, charged with misdemeanor failure to obey the [01:01:02.880 --> 01:01:04.000] order of an officer. [01:01:04.000 --> 01:01:05.000] I'm very fortunate. [01:01:05.000 --> 01:01:09.760] I think that there's so many innocent people who've been convicted for crimes they didn't [01:01:09.760 --> 01:01:10.760] commit. [01:01:10.760 --> 01:01:11.760] They didn't have the community that I have. [01:01:11.760 --> 01:01:12.760] I just feel very fortunate. [01:01:12.760 --> 01:01:16.640] I'm just so grateful that all the witnesses stepped forward, a lot of witnesses who had [01:01:16.640 --> 01:01:18.280] no idea who I was that night. [01:01:18.280 --> 01:01:22.400] Just so grateful that an officer crossed a thin blue line to speak the truth, and I'm [01:01:22.400 --> 01:01:27.160] grateful that the jury members had the courage to stand up for the truth as opposed to being [01:01:27.160 --> 01:01:28.480] bullied by the prosecutor. [01:01:28.480 --> 01:01:32.320] The Austin police officer who crossed the thin blue line to provide testimony on behalf [01:01:32.320 --> 01:01:37.320] of Beeler is Jermaine Hopkins, and his willingness to do what he calls the right thing has cost [01:01:37.320 --> 01:01:38.320] him his job. [01:01:38.320 --> 01:01:41.920] I believe APD is an agency that cannot police itself. [01:01:41.920 --> 01:01:43.880] Unfortunately it's at the higher levels. [01:01:43.880 --> 01:01:47.720] Beeler was arrested in the early morning hours of New Year's Day 2012 when he came to the [01:01:47.720 --> 01:01:52.320] defense of a woman being detained by Austin police officers Patrick Oborski and Robert [01:01:52.320 --> 01:01:53.320] Snyder. [01:01:53.320 --> 01:01:58.600] This act is what led to his arrest, and ultimately to the trial, which involved 25 hours of proceedings [01:01:58.600 --> 01:02:03.640] and six hours of deliberations for the five-person jury to reach its not guilty verdict. [01:02:03.640 --> 01:02:05.720] Beeler was represented by attorney Millie Thompson. [01:02:05.720 --> 01:02:10.160] If we flood the courthouse with cases like this, they will stop doing it. [01:02:10.160 --> 01:02:12.200] I was very blessed to be on the right side. [01:02:12.200 --> 01:02:17.720] The trial was one of twists and turns, including the loss of the sixth juror who stepped down, [01:02:17.720 --> 01:02:21.360] informing the judge he would not be able to reach a verdict, as he feared there was a [01:02:21.360 --> 01:02:25.360] group who would retaliate with physical violence if he did so. [01:02:25.360 --> 01:02:28.520] The group has not been publicly identified.

[01:03:21.200 --> 01:03:49.200] We'll be right back. [01:03:49.200 --> 01:04:16.160] Okay, we are back with Brandi Kelton Davis-Stevens from U of Law Radio, here with our special [01:04:16.160 --> 01:04:19.440] guest, Ken Magnussen, and we're talking to Jeff in Mississippi. [01:04:19.440 --> 01:04:21.280] Jeff, you had another question. [01:04:21.280 --> 01:04:24.000] Yeah, actually, I've got two. [01:04:24.000 --> 01:04:30.560] My order setting pro se motions for hearing actually only has a judge's signature. [01:04:30.560 --> 01:04:33.000] My attorney's signature is not there. [01:04:33.000 --> 01:04:37.360] And of course, mine's not there because I didn't know she was making it. [01:04:37.360 --> 01:04:38.360] I just received it. [01:04:38.360 --> 01:04:39.860] Well, wait a minute. [01:04:39.860 --> 01:04:40.980] She may not have. [01:04:40.980 --> 01:04:47.640] She may not have had anything to do with it as they reset the hearing date. [01:04:47.640 --> 01:04:53.040] And the judge most likely did that sui sponte claiming that he had a murder trial going [01:04:53.040 --> 01:04:55.440] on that preempted your case. [01:04:55.440 --> 01:04:56.440] Okay. [01:04:56.440 --> 01:05:04.160] So, there probably wasn't a motion for continuance filed. [01:05:04.160 --> 01:05:08.200] This was most likely sui sponte by the court. [01:05:08.200 --> 01:05:09.200] Does there have to be? [01:05:09.200 --> 01:05:15.120] I mean, y'all were just saying that there needs to be a court reporter doing this stuff [01:05:15.120 --> 01:05:16.680] on transcripts. [01:05:16.680 --> 01:05:22.880] Well, you have the judge signed an order and that may be all there is. [01:05:22.880 --> 01:05:25.320] He may not have done it in court. [01:05:25.320 --> 01:05:32.000] And this, Ken, correct me if I'm wrong, but this the court has discretion to do. [01:05:32.000 --> 01:05:34.680] Yeah, they do. [01:05:34.680 --> 01:05:40.320] But the issue is that if this murder trial was brought to them to set for hearing or [01:05:40.320 --> 01:05:43.160] whatever, it was brought by the district attorney's office. [01:05:43.160 --> 01:05:47.760] They clearly either knew that they had the time to do it or not and they had a requirement [01:05:47.760 --> 01:05:51.400] not to have you waste your time and come down there. [01:05:51.400 --> 01:05:56.160] And I'm convinced that you're right and that they're abusing their power by constantly [01:05:56.160 --> 01:06:01.500] resetting these things and they have no consideration for your schedule whatsoever. [01:06:01.500 --> 01:06:06.920] And I'm sorry, the speedy trial act from the United States constitutional perspective still [01:06:06.920 --> 01:06:08.920] applies. [01:06:08.920 --> 01:06:13.400] Whether or not they're retrying you or not, they can't just keep creating this court machination [01:06:13.400 --> 01:06:20.760] over and over and over again, month in, month out and depriving you of the ability to live [01:06:20.760 --> 01:06:27.980] your life based on their inability or incompetence to hold a trial. [01:06:27.980 --> 01:06:35.180] This is neither – this is deliberate retaliation to prevent you from adjudicating the case. [01:06:35.180 --> 01:06:41.480] And the point about the judge being able to do that was about making the right argument. [01:06:41.480 --> 01:06:46.640] You can't argue – it would be fruitless to argue that they didn't have the right [01:06:46.640 --> 01:06:49.360] to do that because the judge can. [01:06:49.360 --> 01:06:56.400] The argument is that the act was intentionally malicious and intended to … [01:06:56.400 --> 01:07:04.400] Okay, well mine – they postponed my hearing until tomorrow, so I have my motion hearing [01:07:04.400 --> 01:07:06.400] tomorrow at 1.30. [01:07:06.400 --> 01:07:09.480] Now what's going to happen is I'm going to walk into the courtroom and people are [01:07:09.480 --> 01:07:12.080] going to look at me like, who are you? [01:07:12.080 --> 01:07:15.160] And it's going to be a bunch of strange people and then the clerk is going to come [01:07:15.160 --> 01:07:25.120] leaving a continuance and she's going to have this real stupid look on her face. [01:07:25.120 --> 01:07:31.320] And you need to ask the question, who requested the continuance? [01:07:31.320 --> 01:07:36.280] Who told you to do this? [01:07:36.280 --> 01:07:37.280] You need to know – [01:07:37.280 --> 01:07:44.040] Wait a minute, I'm missing something here. [01:07:44.040 --> 01:07:47.800] Okay, the judge won't be here and my attorney won't be there. [01:07:47.800 --> 01:07:49.600] Hold on, stop, stop, stop. [01:07:49.600 --> 01:07:54.900] They continued your motion hearing until tomorrow. [01:07:54.900 --> 01:07:59.480] Does that mean that the murder trial is over? [01:07:59.480 --> 01:08:01.480] No. [01:08:01.480 --> 01:08:08.160] Okay, it was your trial that was put off. [01:08:08.160 --> 01:08:12.920] Wasn't your trial scheduled for Monday? [01:08:12.920 --> 01:08:20.040] Yes, the trial was put off until January the 27th, I'm sorry, and I had a motion hearing [01:08:20.040 --> 01:08:25.000] set for the same day. [01:08:25.000 --> 01:08:35.040] Okay, and now January 27th, now you're having a hearing set tomorrow. [01:08:35.040 --> 01:08:39.480] Why is that set for tomorrow if you have another one set? [01:08:39.480 --> 01:08:43.280] I'm not sure what's going on here. [01:08:43.280 --> 01:08:47.040] Probably because they want to keep me for the whole term and maybe it's part of their [01:08:47.040 --> 01:08:50.160] torture technique. [01:08:50.160 --> 01:08:57.320] Okay, since they're keeping you there, you need to go down and get a list of everybody [01:08:57.320 --> 01:09:06.720] who was waiting for trial at the courthouse and then go spend some time going through [01:09:06.720 --> 01:09:09.640] their records, taking notes. [01:09:09.640 --> 01:09:17.120] It doesn't necessarily matter what you're taking, but start taking notes. [01:09:17.120 --> 01:09:21.640] And don't tell them what you're doing, just research. [01:09:21.640 --> 01:09:24.440] Don't tell them anything. [01:09:24.440 --> 01:09:30.380] They will imagine something much worse than anything you would tell them. [01:09:30.380 --> 01:09:33.240] So it makes them crazy when they don't know what you're doing. [01:09:33.240 --> 01:09:39.800] But start going through these, finding out who these people are, and going through their [01:09:39.800 --> 01:09:43.600] cases and see if you can find some patterns here. [01:09:43.600 --> 01:09:48.760] You want to know how many times these people are being brought down and forced to sit here [01:09:48.760 --> 01:09:55.920] in the court for a week and then sent home, and these are obviously people who didn't [01:09:55.920 --> 01:09:59.760] take the deal and plead guilty. [01:09:59.760 --> 01:10:08.800] You also want to see if the clerk produces any reports to any state agency concerning [01:10:08.800 --> 01:10:12.920] statistics on criminal prosecutions. [01:10:12.920 --> 01:10:24.780] You want to know how many people are arrested, tried, how many make a deal, how many are [01:10:24.780 --> 01:10:28.080] actually tried. [01:10:28.080 --> 01:10:37.800] Order up some statistics and get prepared for your RICO suit. [01:10:37.800 --> 01:10:42.040] But don't tell them you're getting prepared for a RICO suit, it's none of their business [01:10:42.040 --> 01:10:46.200] what you're doing. [01:10:46.200 --> 01:10:51.080] So start doing, since you're still there, get you a lot of research done, make the time [01:10:51.080 --> 01:10:53.300] useful. [01:10:53.300 --> 01:10:58.600] So get a court calendar and just find a name on the court calendar and then just go and [01:10:58.600 --> 01:11:00.680] ask for that person's file. [01:11:00.680 --> 01:11:06.040] Well, are these people necessarily on the court calendar? [01:11:06.040 --> 01:11:09.680] Okay. [01:11:09.680 --> 01:11:10.680] Find out. [01:11:10.680 --> 01:11:20.000] Say, if I look at the court calendar, everybody who has been required to come here and wait [01:11:20.000 --> 01:11:24.920] for trial, be on the calendar. [01:11:24.920 --> 01:11:33.280] If not, ask them, how do you find everyone who has been ordered to come here for trial? [01:11:33.280 --> 01:11:37.440] They'll figure out what you're doing, but if they have to figure it out, if you say [01:11:37.440 --> 01:11:40.520] it, you can just be huffing and puffing. [01:11:40.520 --> 01:11:44.320] But if they think it, then it's true and it makes it more compelling. [01:11:44.320 --> 01:11:50.760] And more likely, if you're going to gain any political leverage, you'll gain it better [01:11:50.760 --> 01:11:57.200] by getting them to think what you want rather than having to tell them. [01:11:57.200 --> 01:12:03.040] The goal of the research is either these people are very corrupt or they're very incompetent [01:12:03.040 --> 01:12:05.000] at what they do. [01:12:05.000 --> 01:12:08.720] And either way, we want to find the answer definitively to that. [01:12:08.720 --> 01:12:11.040] What's the proof of the corruption? [01:12:11.040 --> 01:12:12.800] What's the proof of their incompetence? [01:12:12.800 --> 01:12:14.560] And either way, we don't really care. [01:12:14.560 --> 01:12:18.200] But the idea is to find out whether or not, don't assume just because they did something [01:12:18.200 --> 01:12:19.840] that it's a corrupt reason. [01:12:19.840 --> 01:12:25.280] The biggest thing I've seen in government is 90% of the people that are there are incompetent. [01:12:25.280 --> 01:12:29.680] The 10% that are competent may be gaming the system. [01:12:29.680 --> 01:12:34.440] But you want to find out exactly what the procedure and process is and why they can't [01:12:34.440 --> 01:12:37.920] seem to have a speedy trial. [01:12:37.920 --> 01:12:38.920] Why can't they do this? [01:12:38.920 --> 01:12:40.320] Is there an all career motive? [01:12:40.320 --> 01:12:44.840] We've got some hypothesis at this point, but by looking through all the case, the court [01:12:44.840 --> 01:12:50.360] records to look at who's there, who's required to be there, who's representing them, there's [01:12:50.360 --> 01:12:56.360] no telling what pattern you're going to see, but it should reveal the ulterior motive. [01:12:56.360 --> 01:12:57.360] Okay. [01:12:57.360 --> 01:12:58.760] All right. [01:12:58.760 --> 01:12:59.760] Okay. [01:12:59.760 --> 01:13:01.880] Well, thanks guys. [01:13:01.880 --> 01:13:07.280] And I will call you back when I'm done and report to you. [01:13:07.280 --> 01:13:09.000] Wonderful. [01:13:09.000 --> 01:13:10.760] Thank you, Jeff. [01:13:10.760 --> 01:13:11.760] Thank you guys. [01:13:11.760 --> 01:13:12.760] Thanks. [01:13:12.760 --> 01:13:13.760] Thank you. [01:13:13.760 --> 01:13:14.760] Okay. [01:13:14.760 --> 01:13:19.860] We have one more caller, Zhaozha from New York and Ken, you'll like this caller. [01:13:19.860 --> 01:13:22.920] She has been kicking behind in New York. [01:13:22.920 --> 01:13:23.920] Hello, Zhaozha. [01:13:23.920 --> 01:13:24.920] Hi, Randy. [01:13:24.920 --> 01:13:25.920] Hi, Ken. [01:13:25.920 --> 01:13:26.920] How are you tonight? [01:13:26.920 --> 01:13:27.920] You guys sound great. [01:13:27.920 --> 01:13:30.400] Thanks for taking the time. [01:13:30.400 --> 01:13:31.520] We're doing well. [01:13:31.520 --> 01:13:33.320] Kind of bring us up to speed. [01:13:33.320 --> 01:13:34.320] Okay. [01:13:34.320 --> 01:13:39.080] From the last time that we called, I wanted to say that I did file the bar grievance and [01:13:39.080 --> 01:13:43.160] I received a note from the New York Bar, but they are fairly backed up and I did a five [01:13:43.160 --> 01:13:46.840] page would be a 10 page double spaced grievance. [01:13:46.840 --> 01:13:48.120] I really gave them a hard time. [01:13:48.120 --> 01:13:52.080] So thank you for letting me know how to explain how to do that on air. [01:13:52.080 --> 01:13:56.480] And I know that that was, that put a damper on their Christmas for sure. [01:13:56.480 --> 01:13:58.680] This is Ken. [01:13:58.680 --> 01:14:00.720] Did you send us a copy? [01:14:00.720 --> 01:14:02.920] Yeah, I sent to anyone. [01:14:02.920 --> 01:14:04.280] I can send you one as well. [01:14:04.280 --> 01:14:05.280] Okay. [01:14:05.280 --> 01:14:07.520] No, I just want to make sure Randy's got a copy. [01:14:07.520 --> 01:14:08.520] I want to see it. [01:14:08.520 --> 01:14:09.520] Yeah. [01:14:09.520 --> 01:14:10.520] It was tight. [01:14:10.520 --> 01:14:14.280] I pulled them on and my brother went to law school and he even said a lot of the things [01:14:14.280 --> 01:14:17.840] that they did after I wrote it, I said, Oh, uh, what do you think? [01:14:17.840 --> 01:14:19.440] He said, Oh yeah, it was unethical. [01:14:19.440 --> 01:14:20.600] Everything you did was completely unethical. [01:14:20.600 --> 01:14:26.120] I was able to back it up with citations and yeah, they got in trouble for sure, but they [01:14:26.120 --> 01:14:27.120] still got brave. [01:14:27.120 --> 01:14:28.120] I guess. [01:14:28.120 --> 01:14:34.200] Um, I had filed it a little bit later than I wanted to, but I didn't, which is fine, [01:14:34.200 --> 01:14:38.740] but they were inspired to file their motion to dismiss. [01:14:38.740 --> 01:14:41.000] So they filed that on Monday. [01:14:41.000 --> 01:14:43.640] Randy was a little speculative whether they were actually going to go through with it [01:14:43.640 --> 01:14:49.600] because I also, they also try to sneak in, uh, some evidence that wasn't really that [01:14:49.600 --> 01:14:50.600] great. [01:14:50.600 --> 01:14:57.820] And they, we're not dealing with that evidence at this point because it was admitted improperly, [01:14:57.820 --> 01:15:02.000] but it's, but they went ahead and they did, they decide to file a motion to dismiss the [01:15:02.000 --> 01:15:03.000] case. [01:15:03.000 --> 01:15:09.120] Um, this copyright is a copyright infringement case, um, and it's on their grounds, ridiculous [01:15:09.120 --> 01:15:10.120] grounds. [01:15:10.120 --> 01:15:13.880] Again, they're trying to say that there was some jurisdiction, which is absolutely incorrect [01:15:13.880 --> 01:15:19.440] because it's a federal lawsuit and, um, in the, in the federal courts, copyright, uh, [01:15:19.440 --> 01:15:23.040] case can only be held in federal courts and they were trying to claim, claim some personal [01:15:23.040 --> 01:15:25.200] jurisdiction on, on one of the subjects. [01:15:25.200 --> 01:15:26.520] It was, it's just really weak. [01:15:26.520 --> 01:15:32.260] And then they did try to use, okay, my last case, my first case, which is in court, which [01:15:32.260 --> 01:15:39.480] I was already appealing the judge in a recusal because he admitted that he worked for the [01:15:39.480 --> 01:15:40.480] defendants. [01:15:40.480 --> 01:15:45.080] So these people, because it was also a copyright infringement case and the judge was prejudiced [01:15:45.080 --> 01:15:46.080] and biased. [01:15:46.080 --> 01:15:52.560] Um, first I'm wondering a few things first, should I, am I able to cite the fact that [01:15:52.560 --> 01:15:58.280] in my defense, in my dismissal, my opposing to their dismissal papers, do you think it's [01:15:58.280 --> 01:16:06.280] my advantage, your honor opposing counsel opened the door. [01:16:06.280 --> 01:16:12.040] I get to walk through it. [01:16:12.040 --> 01:16:19.960] They opened the door to that other trial if they brought it referenced to it in this trial [01:16:19.960 --> 01:16:25.500] in order to try to discredit you, they opened that door and you get to walk through it stomping [01:16:25.500 --> 01:16:27.040] your feet all the way. [01:16:27.040 --> 01:16:28.960] Oh, okay. [01:16:28.960 --> 01:16:32.640] Because they, they even submitted the decisions, but they, it was everything cherry picked [01:16:32.640 --> 01:16:37.960] on the decision, you know, but I wanted to ask you about how long I need to ask for discovery [01:16:37.960 --> 01:16:38.960] right now. [01:16:38.960 --> 01:16:39.960] Um, okay. [01:16:39.960 --> 01:16:40.960] Good, good. [01:16:40.960 --> 01:16:41.960] Hang on. [01:16:41.960 --> 01:16:42.960] We're about to go to break. [01:16:42.960 --> 01:16:47.720] Raina Kelton, Deborah Stevens, Rule of Law Radio here with special guest, Kim Magnussen. [01:16:47.720 --> 01:17:00.800] I call it number five one two six four six 1984 we'll be right back. [01:17:00.800 --> 01:17:03.920] Chances are you've heard of my magic mud, but have you used it?

[01:19:52.040 --> 01:19:53.040] We are back. [01:19:53.040 --> 01:19:57.640] Andy Kelton, Debra Steven is here with our special guest, Ken Magnussen, and Ken, you [01:19:57.640 --> 01:20:00.480] had some comments on the breaks. [01:20:00.480 --> 01:20:01.800] Go to those now. [01:20:01.800 --> 01:20:06.000] Jaja you're going to like this. [01:20:06.000 --> 01:20:12.680] One of the issues is when the other side files a frivolous motion to dismiss and cites frivolous [01:20:12.680 --> 01:20:17.460] case law or case material, or they cherry pick what they want. [01:20:17.460 --> 01:20:18.460] It's a frivolous motion. [01:20:18.460 --> 01:20:24.280] The problem is the pro se litigant that's in court can't get equity in court with regards [01:20:24.280 --> 01:20:27.880] to frivolous motions because you can't get attorney's fees. [01:20:27.880 --> 01:20:29.520] That's what they always tell you about. [01:20:29.520 --> 01:20:34.640] The court will sanction the other party $15,000, but they don't really care as long as they [01:20:34.640 --> 01:20:38.600] keep beating you down one motion at a time. [01:20:38.600 --> 01:20:44.680] What they fear is something that's going to lose the case for them. [01:20:44.680 --> 01:20:52.520] You ask for their pleadings to be stricken as part of the sanctions. [01:20:52.520 --> 01:20:56.760] We're talking all their pleadings, which means they didn't answer the case. [01:20:56.760 --> 01:20:58.780] That's what they call death penalty. [01:20:58.780 --> 01:21:04.400] The idea of a death penalty case, there was a case out of a wrongful death case with regards [01:21:04.400 --> 01:21:09.520] to a defective automobile. [01:21:09.520 --> 01:21:16.560] You can read about this case in a book called No Contest by Ralph Nader and John Wesley [01:21:16.560 --> 01:21:17.560] Smith. [01:21:17.560 --> 01:21:19.560] It was written back in the 1980s. [01:21:19.560 --> 01:21:25.240] It's an absolute treasure trove of stories about abuse of power by judges and attorneys [01:21:25.240 --> 01:21:27.160] and how to fight it. [01:21:27.160 --> 01:21:32.200] One of the things that they did is the attorneys for the plaintiffs came in and found out that [01:21:32.200 --> 01:21:35.680] essentially the car manufacturer, and I'm not going to mention which one because I don't [01:21:35.680 --> 01:21:37.360] remember which one it is. [01:21:37.360 --> 01:21:46.880] Anyway, it was about Ford Motor Company and the Pinto. [01:21:46.880 --> 01:21:53.180] I think it was Chevy and the trucks with the side gas tanks, but in any event, it was one [01:21:53.180 --> 01:22:00.440] of those cases where they had essentially said, we did no safety testing on any of this. [01:22:00.440 --> 01:22:03.520] We don't have any records in our safety lab. [01:22:03.520 --> 01:22:10.440] It turned out that all their safety reports are reduced to microfiche. [01:22:10.440 --> 01:22:11.440] This is back in the 1980s. [01:22:11.440 --> 01:22:12.900] It was microfiche. [01:22:12.900 --> 01:22:15.640] Nobody had desktop computers then. [01:22:15.640 --> 01:22:23.080] Anyway, the microfiche, after they kept them for a certain period of time, would be salvaged [01:22:23.080 --> 01:22:25.800] because they all contained silver. [01:22:25.800 --> 01:22:32.540] A salvage company bought on a lot of these things, and of course a car company produces [01:22:32.540 --> 01:22:36.040] tons of microfiche over the course of years. [01:22:36.040 --> 01:22:40.640] Well, it just so happened the guy had a microfiche reader, and he just reached in to see what [01:22:40.640 --> 01:22:41.640] he did. [01:22:41.640 --> 01:22:47.000] He found the report that they were talking about that they said they didn't have, which [01:22:47.000 --> 01:22:50.240] the car company lied about. [01:22:50.240 --> 01:22:56.680] He contacted the plaintiff's counsel, got him a copy of this, and they came in and said, [01:22:56.680 --> 01:23:01.420] the auto makers, as well as the attorneys, had committed fraud upon the court. [01:23:01.420 --> 01:23:06.760] They got sanctioned real money, but the other thing the attorney asked for was because they [01:23:06.760 --> 01:23:17.600] did this with the intention to eliminate their liability, that this went beyond normal fraud [01:23:17.600 --> 01:23:23.440] upon the court, and the judge should strike all of their pleadings and provide a default [01:23:23.440 --> 01:23:24.440] judgment. [01:23:24.440 --> 01:23:29.400] There had been a lot of activity in this case, and that's what the judge did, and it was [01:23:29.400 --> 01:23:31.400] sustained on appeal. [01:23:31.400 --> 01:23:36.480] So the idea of striking their pleadings and they lose, essentially, as if they never answered [01:23:36.480 --> 01:23:42.800] the suit, is a real fear of attorneys when it comes to sanctions. [01:23:42.800 --> 01:23:49.720] So that's one of the things you can work into your pleadings, is asking for that their pleadings [01:23:49.720 --> 01:23:50.720] be stricken. [01:23:50.720 --> 01:23:54.000] Oh, that's fantastic. [01:23:54.000 --> 01:23:59.800] That sounds like a really good punch, a lot of punches, actually. [01:23:59.800 --> 01:24:00.800] Because I can... [01:24:00.800 --> 01:24:04.320] I can't get their attention. [01:24:04.320 --> 01:24:09.080] But you're saying that, personally, I can't collect, I can't file, well, I guess I could [01:24:09.080 --> 01:24:14.720] file a mild practice suit separate from that, but not obtain them from the courts, as in [01:24:14.720 --> 01:24:19.720] with legal fees, because I'm not a counsel, I'm just a pro-state litigant. [01:24:19.720 --> 01:24:24.120] That's fine, though, at least it will cause them to have to pay the courts. [01:24:24.120 --> 01:24:28.800] So it will cost them out of pocket. [01:24:28.800 --> 01:24:30.320] But they don't care. [01:24:30.320 --> 01:24:34.400] They don't care about that out of pocket as long as they're winning the cases for their [01:24:34.400 --> 01:24:35.920] clients, okay? [01:24:35.920 --> 01:24:40.600] They don't mind paying hundreds of thousand dollars in sanctions as long as the overall [01:24:40.600 --> 01:24:44.500] lawsuit doesn't gain traction. [01:24:44.500 --> 01:24:51.620] What they worry about is if they file another frivolous pleading and you plead the same [01:24:51.620 --> 01:24:55.920] thing, saying, here we are, Your Honor, we're here again because they filed more frivolous [01:24:55.920 --> 01:25:00.720] pleadings, and the first time I asked for sanctions against them and you didn't do anything, [01:25:00.720 --> 01:25:04.880] now they're doing it again, and this is a pattern of conduct, you need to strike their [01:25:04.880 --> 01:25:05.880] pleadings. [01:25:05.880 --> 01:25:09.320] And if they, on the second occasion, the judge might do it. [01:25:09.320 --> 01:25:11.780] And they're really worried about that. [01:25:11.780 --> 01:25:15.120] So I'm going to tell you that I don't think they'll file it. [01:25:15.120 --> 01:25:20.140] If you bring that issue up and ask for that as an alternative to attorney's fees is strike [01:25:20.140 --> 01:25:22.140] their pleadings. [01:25:22.140 --> 01:25:23.720] Okay. [01:25:23.720 --> 01:25:30.120] I think the fact that it's in the pleadings will motivate them never to file any more [01:25:30.120 --> 01:25:32.120] frivolous pleadings. [01:25:32.120 --> 01:25:39.680] Well, they had to answer something, and they're attempting to file a motion to dismiss for [01:25:39.680 --> 01:25:44.640] failure to state a claim, which is they cited some very, you know, whatever, very frivolous [01:25:44.640 --> 01:25:45.640] case law. [01:25:45.640 --> 01:25:49.160] Most of it is because they're using advertising law and it's a fine art case. [01:25:49.160 --> 01:25:50.160] I know how to fight it. [01:25:50.160 --> 01:25:51.160] It's nothing. [01:25:51.160 --> 01:25:54.440] But, and they never denied looking at my work, which is amazing. [01:25:54.440 --> 01:25:57.040] So they never, you know, and so that leads me... [01:25:57.040 --> 01:25:58.040] Go ahead. [01:25:58.040 --> 01:26:04.040] Well, that gets you back to the fact that they shouldn't file a motion to dismiss unless [01:26:04.040 --> 01:26:06.840] they've got real law to support the motion to dismiss. [01:26:06.840 --> 01:26:08.560] You don't get to argue anything. [01:26:08.560 --> 01:26:12.400] They can't start saying, well, no, we didn't do it because she was on the grassy knoll [01:26:12.400 --> 01:26:15.880] in November 63. [01:26:15.880 --> 01:26:18.180] They don't get to just throw anything out there. [01:26:18.180 --> 01:26:23.000] They've got to argue law that's applicable to the case, and when they argue outside the [01:26:23.000 --> 01:26:28.480] boundaries of the case, they should get an appropriate sanction against them. [01:26:28.480 --> 01:26:30.600] There should be consequences for doing that. [01:26:30.600 --> 01:26:34.800] And one of the sanctions is the judge fines the money for the court, and if you had an [01:26:34.800 --> 01:26:39.360] attorney would award you attorney's fees for that, okay? [01:26:39.360 --> 01:26:42.360] And then they don't want to do it because they're putting money in your attorney's pocket, [01:26:42.360 --> 01:26:44.680] your pocket, every time they screw up. [01:26:44.680 --> 01:26:50.900] But when you're pro se, they're taking your time and not compensating you for it. [01:26:50.900 --> 01:26:54.880] So they're motivated to do this over and over and over again until you put something in [01:26:54.880 --> 01:26:56.280] there as a deterrent. [01:26:56.280 --> 01:27:02.640] And the striking of their pleadings is a significant...they call that the death penalty in a case. [01:27:02.640 --> 01:27:07.540] The judges won't do it until there's a point in time where you've shown a pattern of conduct [01:27:07.540 --> 01:27:11.320] that these attorneys are doing that, and they'll warn the attorneys over and over and over [01:27:11.320 --> 01:27:13.400] again, and when it gets to be too much, they'll do it. [01:27:13.400 --> 01:27:15.440] They'll strike their pleadings, and that'll be the end of it. [01:27:15.440 --> 01:27:20.760] They've already done a slew of things, and they've asked for a pre-motion conference, [01:27:20.760 --> 01:27:22.000] and the judge struck that down. [01:27:22.000 --> 01:27:27.800] He said, with emphasis, not with pro se cases, this is not...and I told them already by form [01:27:27.800 --> 01:27:35.080] of letter that you're not supposed to have pre-motion conferences with the pro se, and [01:27:35.080 --> 01:27:40.360] they just went ahead and did it to prolong litigation, just to try to hang it out. [01:27:40.360 --> 01:27:43.920] They've been doing all kinds of things like that. [01:27:43.920 --> 01:27:49.680] Put that in a section in your pleadings saying continued pattern of conduct and indicate [01:27:49.680 --> 01:27:54.080] that you want their pleadings stricken, that this is the only thing that they're going [01:27:54.080 --> 01:27:55.080] to recognize. [01:27:55.080 --> 01:28:01.640] They're going to keep filing frivolous pleadings in this case in order to waste your time until [01:28:01.640 --> 01:28:06.160] such time as you miss one of the motions because you can't, because your pro se and don't have [01:28:06.160 --> 01:28:08.720] a legal law firm behind you. [01:28:08.720 --> 01:28:13.480] So the issue is, is that there ought to be appropriate consequences for them not following [01:28:13.480 --> 01:28:17.480] the rules, and when they don't follow the rules, they ought to have their pleadings [01:28:17.480 --> 01:28:21.840] stricken or pay you appropriate compensation. [01:28:21.840 --> 01:28:23.160] Okay. [01:28:23.160 --> 01:28:29.680] So one case that I had where they filed a motion, this is where I came up with this. [01:28:29.680 --> 01:28:31.760] I read this process. [01:28:31.760 --> 01:28:37.080] So I did that, and I said, in the alternative, I'd be compensated for my time and my wasted [01:28:37.080 --> 01:28:39.840] time in having to fight this frivolous motion. [01:28:39.840 --> 01:28:42.400] Now, I'm not asking for attorney's fees. [01:28:42.400 --> 01:28:47.760] I'm asking for a compensation of my wasted time, and the other side agreed to it as opposed [01:28:47.760 --> 01:28:56.160] to letting the court strike their pleadings, and then they never filed a frivolous motion [01:28:56.160 --> 01:28:57.160] again. [01:28:57.160 --> 01:28:58.160] Never. [01:28:58.160 --> 01:29:02.200] Oh, so I can definitely ask for the wasted time because I already started speaking about [01:29:02.200 --> 01:29:07.920] that in my letter to dismiss their motion for their pre-motion conference. [01:29:07.920 --> 01:29:12.560] And I already suggested that, you know, I'm a full-time artist, and this is a hassle from, [01:29:12.560 --> 01:29:16.520] you know, a troubled symphony, but I'm trying to say that I'm not a litigator. [01:29:16.520 --> 01:29:21.600] They're going to argue that that's attorney's fees, that you can't get paid for your time. [01:29:21.600 --> 01:29:25.900] But if you make it a voluntary thing, the court can't order it, but they can volunteer [01:29:25.900 --> 01:29:28.640] it in the alternative to having their pleadings struck. [01:29:28.640 --> 01:29:33.920] But either way, if you ask for their pleadings to be stricken, you give them a, you know, [01:29:33.920 --> 01:29:36.760] it's the lady or the tiger. [01:29:36.760 --> 01:29:37.760] Yeah. [01:29:37.760 --> 01:29:41.760] So I spoke to the clerks today and they... [01:29:41.760 --> 01:29:42.760] Okay, hang on. [01:29:42.760 --> 01:29:43.760] Hang on. [01:29:43.760 --> 01:29:44.760] We're about to go to break. [01:29:44.760 --> 01:29:46.960] We will pick this back up on the other side. [01:29:46.960 --> 01:29:51.800] This is Randy Kelton, Debra Stevens with our radio. [01:29:51.800 --> 01:30:02.240] A call-in number, 512-646-1984, we'll be right back. [01:30:02.240 --> 01:30:06.600] Energy drinks are all the rage these days, but nowadays even young children are chugging [01:30:06.600 --> 01:30:09.920] beverages like Red Bull and Rockstar on the way to school. [01:30:09.920 --> 01:30:15.480] I'm Dr. Katherine Albrecht, and I'll be back in a moment with more on this dangerous trend. [01:30:15.480 --> 01:30:17.080] Privacy is under attack. [01:30:17.080 --> 01:30:20.680] When you give up data about yourself, you'll never get it back again. [01:30:20.680 --> 01:30:25.440] And once your privacy is gone, you'll find your freedoms will start to vanish too. [01:30:25.440 --> 01:30:30.520] So protect your rights, say no to surveillance, and keep your information to yourself. [01:30:30.520 --> 01:30:33.200] Privacy, it's worth hanging on to. [01:30:33.200 --> 01:30:37.500] This public service announcement is brought to you by StartPage.com, the private search [01:30:37.500 --> 01:30:41.040] engine alternative to Google, Yahoo, and Bing. [01:30:41.040 --> 01:30:44.280] Start over with StartPage. [01:30:44.280 --> 01:30:48.720] They say that waking up is hard to do. [01:30:48.720 --> 01:30:53.320] It's tough rolling out of bed in the morning, but now even young people are turning to caffeinated [01:30:53.320 --> 01:30:55.880] energy drinks to kickstart their days. [01:30:55.880 --> 01:31:00.520] According to the Journal of Pediatrics, up to 50% of American youth are consuming them, [01:31:00.520 --> 01:31:01.520] despite the risks. [01:31:01.520 --> 01:31:04.680] Many of these drinks contain large amounts of caffeine. [01:31:04.680 --> 01:31:09.400] Eight ounces of Red Bull, for example, contains about the same caffeine as a cup of coffee. [01:31:09.400 --> 01:31:13.480] Pediatricians caution that youngsters can have a difficult time handling the caffeine [01:31:13.480 --> 01:31:14.480] rush.

[01:31:36.000 --> 01:31:41.440] The government says that fire brought it down, however, 1,500 architects and engineers concluded [01:31:41.440 --> 01:31:43.060] it was a controlled demolition. [01:31:43.060 --> 01:31:47.040] Over 6,000 of my fellow service members have given their lives, but thousands of my fellow [01:31:47.040 --> 01:31:48.520] first responders are dying.

[01:31:52.360 --> 01:31:53.360] I'm an Air Force pilot. [01:31:53.360 --> 01:31:55.000] I'm a father who lost his son. [01:31:55.000 --> 01:31:57.600] We're Americans, and we deserve the truth.

[01:32:07.400 --> 01:32:11.440] I'm you years ago when you felt healthy and young and everything worked on your body. [01:32:11.440 --> 01:32:12.880] Do you remember that? [01:32:12.880 --> 01:32:13.880] Yes. [01:32:13.880 --> 01:32:14.880] I wish I felt like that now.

[01:32:59.760 --> 01:33:04.800] You are listening to the Logos Radio Network. [01:33:04.800 --> 01:33:11.800] Logos Radio Network.com. [01:33:34.800 --> 01:33:45.720] Okay, we are back. [01:33:45.720 --> 01:33:52.040] Brandi Kelton with our special guest, Ken Magnussen, and we're talking to Jaja in New [01:33:52.040 --> 01:33:53.040] York. [01:33:53.040 --> 01:33:56.480] Jaja, you had a question. [01:33:56.480 --> 01:34:00.320] The last question was that the clerk said that I could either write a letter or file [01:34:00.320 --> 01:34:04.140] a motion to the court for more time. [01:34:04.140 --> 01:34:09.320] But I also wanted to know if I need to file a second motion also to file a request for [01:34:09.320 --> 01:34:15.720] discovery, and how long do you think is enough time to request is a good estimate to ask [01:34:15.720 --> 01:34:16.720] for discovery. [01:34:16.720 --> 01:34:17.720] Okay. [01:34:17.720 --> 01:34:23.520] It's a little too soon for discovery because you have a motion to dismiss. [01:34:23.520 --> 01:34:29.760] When as soon as the motion to dismiss is disposed of, then you—because that's a dispositive [01:34:29.760 --> 01:34:30.760] motion. [01:34:30.760 --> 01:34:34.360] That would be a Rule 12b-6 motion. [01:34:34.360 --> 01:34:35.360] I see. [01:34:35.360 --> 01:34:37.760] It would have to have a ruling first before I could ask for— [01:34:37.760 --> 01:34:43.680] Yeah, the judge is not going to—unless you need the discovery in order to answer the [01:34:43.680 --> 01:34:46.960] 12b-6. [01:34:46.960 --> 01:34:52.080] If you can answer the 12b-6 without it, then the judge is not going to give it to you because [01:34:52.080 --> 01:34:57.880] if he rules in favor of dismissal, then the other party won't have to be put to the [01:34:57.880 --> 01:35:03.160] time, trouble, and cost of discovery since, of course, the case would be dismissed altogether. [01:35:03.160 --> 01:35:04.720] Does that make sense? [01:35:04.720 --> 01:35:05.720] Oh, yeah, totally. [01:35:05.720 --> 01:35:06.720] That makes sense. [01:35:06.720 --> 01:35:14.280] So right now, all I have to do is just respond to their—for their motion to dismiss, and [01:35:14.280 --> 01:35:20.960] they gave me 27 pages of a lot of stupid law and reuse, and I know how to challenge that, [01:35:20.960 --> 01:35:26.240] but so I can—I assume that I can—and I could look at the court's rules, but I think [01:35:26.240 --> 01:35:30.720] it was only 15 pages, but since they did 27, can I do equally as much? [01:35:30.720 --> 01:35:33.800] I mean, 30 pages in response to that? [01:35:33.800 --> 01:35:40.760] Oh, yeah, you can—as far as I know, in responding to a motion, I don't think there's a limit [01:35:40.760 --> 01:35:47.840] unless the court has it in their local rules, but that would kind of—that would be difficult [01:35:47.840 --> 01:35:53.200] to set a limit on how you can respond because you don't know how much is in—you know, [01:35:53.200 --> 01:35:59.640] you can't anticipate how much is going to be in a motion, so I wouldn't think there [01:35:59.640 --> 01:36:06.080] would be a limit on how many pages I've filed—50, 60, 70-page motions and responses. [01:36:06.080 --> 01:36:07.080] Okay. [01:36:07.080 --> 01:36:09.080] Do you think I need to have extra time? [01:36:09.080 --> 01:36:15.040] Do you think I should just ask for an extra time for the state to state a status for the [01:36:15.040 --> 01:36:18.960] argument's sake, you know, so I can work it out? [01:36:18.960 --> 01:36:26.320] Take a good look at it, and if you ask for extra time, you might want to give the judge [01:36:26.320 --> 01:36:34.000] a reason why you need the extra time, especially if they're making a lot of frivolous argument [01:36:34.000 --> 01:36:39.840] quoting irrelevant law, and it's going to take you time to go through all of this irrelevant [01:36:39.840 --> 01:36:42.360] law and show why it's not appropriate. [01:36:42.360 --> 01:36:43.360] Okay. [01:36:43.360 --> 01:36:49.160] So that's good, I mean, at least you— [01:36:49.160 --> 01:36:56.240] If you're going to go to the judge and ask the judge to sanction them for filing frivolous [01:36:56.240 --> 01:37:01.720] motions for the purpose of using up your time, this is a good way to document that they're [01:37:01.720 --> 01:37:08.640] using up a lot of your time over frivolous motions, so much that you have to get more [01:37:08.640 --> 01:37:10.360] time to be able to answer. [01:37:10.360 --> 01:37:17.920] You know, the judge hears and sees everything, so everything is a communication to the judge. [01:37:17.920 --> 01:37:20.280] So if you need it, by all means, ask for it. [01:37:20.280 --> 01:37:21.280] Oh, okay. [01:37:21.280 --> 01:37:22.840] I mean, I don't really need it. [01:37:22.840 --> 01:37:28.120] I just thought maybe I could just give them a hard time by extending it, but I could write [01:37:28.120 --> 01:37:31.720] 30 pages in five days, it's not a problem. [01:37:31.720 --> 01:37:35.640] But what I think is interesting, what you said was that since they brought up my last [01:37:35.640 --> 01:37:41.080] case, that you said they've opened the doors, they could stamp my feet around, are you saying [01:37:41.080 --> 01:37:47.080] that I could talk about how the case, how that particular judge worked for the defendants [01:37:47.080 --> 01:37:51.880] and he was prejudiced and biased, is that going to make me look—I mean, that's just [01:37:51.880 --> 01:37:54.600] like one of the parts that I can argue. [01:37:54.600 --> 01:37:56.280] I know that case because— [01:37:56.280 --> 01:37:57.280] Okay. [01:37:57.280 --> 01:38:03.840] I would be cautious, because now you're beginning to step on the judge's toes, you're getting [01:38:03.840 --> 01:38:13.680] up there pretty close, unless it is important to this case, I would avoid that altogether. [01:38:13.680 --> 01:38:23.040] You can talk about what scoundrels the lawyers have been, but if this judge seems to be relatively [01:38:23.040 --> 01:38:31.760] fair, I would not want to risk putting this judge in a position to protect another judge. [01:38:31.760 --> 01:38:37.800] That's what I had, that was my intuition, I kind of felt that also, like I don't want [01:38:37.800 --> 01:38:44.200] to bring up any, stir up any, whatever, any problems, you know, with the judges. [01:38:44.200 --> 01:38:54.720] Yeah, I had this guy come up with a book, and one of his rules were, everything is political. [01:38:54.720 --> 01:39:02.280] Ken, will you tell her about Ken's four rules? [01:39:02.280 --> 01:39:09.000] Four rules, first one is perception is everything, sometimes it's true, sometimes it's not, we've [01:39:09.000 --> 01:39:13.600] all experienced being blamed for something we didn't do, a few of us have gotten credit [01:39:13.600 --> 01:39:17.920] for something we didn't do, but that less likely happens, so. [01:39:17.920 --> 01:39:22.600] Number two is everything is negotiable, kids know that one, you know, can I have a cookie [01:39:22.600 --> 01:39:26.200] now, I'll eat two helpings of vegetables at dinner? [01:39:26.200 --> 01:39:29.880] Everything is negotiable, if you don't ask for negotiation, you don't get a better deal, [01:39:29.880 --> 01:39:32.680] you know, you can always ask. [01:39:32.680 --> 01:39:37.840] Number three is, it has to be in writing or it didn't happen. [01:39:37.840 --> 01:39:42.520] Number four is everything is political, and we don't mean Democrat, Republican, Whig, [01:39:42.520 --> 01:39:49.240] Tory, Communist, Fascist, we're talking the politics of small groups, lawyer, not a lawyer, [01:39:49.240 --> 01:39:51.560] judge, not a judge. [01:39:51.560 --> 01:39:58.760] That's the kind of thing that makes the difference between what happens in, you know, in a process. [01:39:58.760 --> 01:40:03.040] But one of the things I was gonna make a comment about the other case is only write about the [01:40:03.040 --> 01:40:09.700] other case if the argument is salient to what you're trying to prove. [01:40:09.700 --> 01:40:15.280] If it goes directly to an issue that this judge was biased, well, he had a conflict [01:40:15.280 --> 01:40:20.320] of interest, he was disqualified or should have been, and the issue is that, you know, [01:40:20.320 --> 01:40:25.660] that's an important case, and if that proves your point, and that they omitted that fact [01:40:25.660 --> 01:40:34.360] as a deliberate attempt to sway the court with regards to your, you know, the case, [01:40:34.360 --> 01:40:40.160] you know, the case's merit, then by all means you cite it, but only if it's necessary. [01:40:40.160 --> 01:40:45.120] That is the truth, that is the truth, that's what I also felt, it was also a deliberate [01:40:45.120 --> 01:40:48.720] attempt to sway the court as to the case's merit, I said, oh, because they're gonna [01:40:48.720 --> 01:40:56.680] use this last judge's decision, this judge particularly feels that he, you know, is gonna [01:40:56.680 --> 01:41:01.180] have to follow that judge's decision, even though there's been court rulings in the appellate [01:41:01.180 --> 01:41:06.840] decisions afterwards that can highly define it, highly define that particular ruling even [01:41:06.840 --> 01:41:07.840] more. [01:41:07.840 --> 01:41:08.840] I mean, I know... [01:41:08.840 --> 01:41:13.600] Sorry to interrupt you, but I would just refer to the appellate, I wouldn't write anything [01:41:13.600 --> 01:41:17.520] about what the judge said, I would just cite the appellate decisions. [01:41:17.520 --> 01:41:20.980] The appropriate sections out of the appeals court, the appeals court said this, the appeals [01:41:20.980 --> 01:41:23.880] court said that, the appeals court said this. [01:41:23.880 --> 01:41:28.520] Anything the appeals court said about the judge, which supports your position, you didn't [01:41:28.520 --> 01:41:30.600] do it, the appeals court did it. [01:41:30.600 --> 01:41:31.600] Exactly. [01:41:31.600 --> 01:41:37.320] Yeah, no, that's true, so they didn't wanna touch on that, I see, I mean... [01:41:37.320 --> 01:41:45.020] And the trial judge can't be cited anyway, you know, what he ruled or didn't rule doesn't [01:41:45.020 --> 01:41:51.800] carry much weight, but what the appellate court rules, that's law to this judge. [01:41:51.800 --> 01:41:57.280] Exactly, and there's been stronger case law that's been formulated within that particular [01:41:57.280 --> 01:42:04.220] fine, you know, fine art category of law that is now, you know, I could use because it wasn't [01:42:04.220 --> 01:42:08.080] available for me then, but it's been changed, so I even... [01:42:08.080 --> 01:42:11.880] You know, they just try to use everything, you know, they throw everything in the kitchen [01:42:11.880 --> 01:42:16.960] sink, and I have a lot of weapons, so I can fight it all, it's not a problem, you know, [01:42:16.960 --> 01:42:21.080] but I'm glad that I didn't have to do the discovery right now, because that's what was [01:42:21.080 --> 01:42:25.720] causing me a little bit of worry, I was like, oh, is it time now to do discovery and depositions [01:42:25.720 --> 01:42:27.600] and request for admissions? [01:42:27.600 --> 01:42:34.400] But no, I'll just see what happens after I file this filing, this opposition to their... [01:42:34.400 --> 01:42:41.320] Okay, if you get in a federal suit, if you file an action and it gets in the federal [01:42:41.320 --> 01:42:49.680] court, they are always going to file a Rule 12 motion to dismiss a failure state of claim. [01:42:49.680 --> 01:42:54.960] That's kind of like rolling the dice, you know, it's like chicken soup, it couldn't [01:42:54.960 --> 01:42:55.960] hurt. [01:42:55.960 --> 01:43:04.320] If they don't get the Rule 12, now they're going to sit down and look at their case. [01:43:04.320 --> 01:43:09.780] That's when they're likely to be more prepared to come to the table and make a deal. [01:43:09.780 --> 01:43:14.600] When you start getting to discovery, that's when it starts getting serious for them. [01:43:14.600 --> 01:43:18.800] But until they get past Rule 12, they kind of, Rule 12 has kind of become a free ride [01:43:18.800 --> 01:43:19.800] for the defendant. [01:43:19.800 --> 01:43:20.800] Unless it's frivolous. [01:43:20.800 --> 01:43:21.800] Unless it's frivolous, right. [01:43:21.800 --> 01:43:34.480] And then if the judge hadn't given some re-judgment, it's a frivolous summary judgment and he erred. [01:43:34.480 --> 01:43:38.800] Okay, hang on, we're about to go to break. [01:43:38.800 --> 01:43:49.360] Randy Kelton, Deborah Stevens, Root of Our Radio, I called in number 512-646-1984, hang [01:43:49.360 --> 01:44:00.040] on JoJo, and we'll be right back. [01:44:00.040 --> 01:44:04.120] You feel tired when talking about important topics like money and politics? [01:44:04.120 --> 01:44:07.960] Are you confused by words like the Constitution or the Federal Reserve? [01:44:07.960 --> 01:44:12.120] If so, you may be diagnosed with the deadliest disease known today, stupidity. [01:44:12.120 --> 01:44:17.720] Hi, my name is Steve Holt, and like millions of other Americans, I was diagnosed with stupidity [01:44:17.720 --> 01:44:18.920] at an early age. [01:44:18.920 --> 01:44:22.920] I had no idea that the number one cause of the disease is found in almost every home [01:44:22.920 --> 01:44:25.040] in America, the television. [01:44:25.040 --> 01:44:30.040] Unfortunately, that puts most Americans at risk of catching stupidity, but there is hope.

[01:46:42.480 --> 01:46:43.480] We are back. [01:46:43.480 --> 01:46:44.480] Randy Kelton. [01:46:44.480 --> 01:46:50.160] Randy Kelton and Deborah Stevens, Rule of Law Radio, here with Ken Magnusson, and we're [01:46:50.160 --> 01:46:53.200] talking to Jaja in New York. [01:46:53.200 --> 01:46:54.200] Okay. [01:46:54.200 --> 01:46:55.800] Where were we, Jaja? [01:46:55.800 --> 01:47:02.440] So, the last thing I wanted to just mention was that in their 27-page opposition—I mean, [01:47:02.440 --> 01:47:10.840] the motion to dismiss—they included a declaration from one of the defendants, who was a part [01:47:10.840 --> 01:47:15.720] of a corporation, who worked for the corporation—I just cited him as well—he was trying to [01:47:15.720 --> 01:47:20.520] claim—they're trying to claim that a personal jurisdiction out of the federal copyright [01:47:20.520 --> 01:47:26.000] lawsuit, which is on several counts—I already know the case law is absolutely frivolous—but [01:47:26.000 --> 01:47:32.480] they went out of their way to obtain a declaration from this particular defendant, saying that [01:47:32.480 --> 01:47:34.280] he never did business in my state. [01:47:34.280 --> 01:47:40.480] You know, for example, even though it's a worldwide company and they solicit an advertising [01:47:40.480 --> 01:47:46.480] in every major station, they did it on MTV, and I know the case law that's already going [01:47:46.480 --> 01:47:50.600] to throw it out, whatever that they say, you know, and they can't say that they've ever [01:47:50.600 --> 01:47:54.680] received any donations—he's just trying to say that he didn't receive profits because [01:47:54.680 --> 01:47:58.520] he's not for profit—but he can't claim personal jurisdiction, but they went out of [01:47:58.520 --> 01:48:03.100] their way to make a statement, but he never said that he never looked at my work for inspiration. [01:48:03.100 --> 01:48:06.280] He never said that he didn't make money from looking at the work. [01:48:06.280 --> 01:48:09.480] You know, they're just trying to use case law to say that, oh, it's not right or you [01:48:09.480 --> 01:48:12.400] can't say that, but they never actually denied. [01:48:12.400 --> 01:48:13.400] So that's an admission. [01:48:13.400 --> 01:48:14.400] Isn't that an admission as well? [01:48:14.400 --> 01:48:17.800] I mean, the fact that they never denied—I mean, they went out of their way to write [01:48:17.800 --> 01:48:22.960] a declaration, but they never denied looking at the work in that declaration for inspiration. [01:48:22.960 --> 01:48:27.240] Can I use that as part of— [01:48:27.240 --> 01:48:29.480] Could we take that as an admission? [01:48:29.480 --> 01:48:30.480] No. [01:48:30.480 --> 01:48:31.480] I didn't think so. [01:48:31.480 --> 01:48:32.480] No. [01:48:32.480 --> 01:48:33.480] Make an argument about it. [01:48:33.480 --> 01:48:41.520] Yeah, if you put it in—if you get to discovery and you put it in discovery or request for [01:48:41.520 --> 01:48:49.980] admissions and they give you a nonresponsive answer, then you can construe it as you need. [01:48:49.980 --> 01:48:54.600] You can make an argument that they omitted that because of his—he couldn't say that [01:48:54.600 --> 01:49:02.800] under oath in his—I take it he did this as an affidavit. [01:49:02.800 --> 01:49:09.160] But the issue is that since he didn't do that, he did that because he actually did do exactly [01:49:09.160 --> 01:49:10.720] what you said he did. [01:49:10.720 --> 01:49:18.360] So yeah, you can make the argument that he's doing everything short of saying, I did not [01:49:18.360 --> 01:49:21.000] do it. [01:49:21.000 --> 01:49:23.840] But you can't say that he made a judicial admission. [01:49:23.840 --> 01:49:24.840] Yeah. [01:49:24.840 --> 01:49:30.960] I have a friend who knows—that's great, I mean, I have a friend who knows this particular [01:49:30.960 --> 01:49:36.920] company or something, he said there's a lot of hoopla around their hoaxiness and their [01:49:36.920 --> 01:49:43.360] misspending of expenditures and funds, but he said that—he suggested that potentially [01:49:43.360 --> 01:49:47.000] they're doing everything they can not to settle with me because they don't want their books [01:49:47.000 --> 01:49:54.760] open, because they're so hoaxy, because they have so much misspenditure of their monies. [01:49:54.760 --> 01:50:00.280] So that's what I'm up against, a paranoid company, you know, who's just a— [01:50:00.280 --> 01:50:01.280] Yeah. [01:50:01.280 --> 01:50:05.800] You can turn around and even though this is—you can say that you have information that would [01:50:05.800 --> 01:50:10.400] lead you to believe that this company is essentially cooking the books, and that's why they're [01:50:10.400 --> 01:50:18.560] trying to avoid all of this, is because they don't want any oversight over exactly how [01:50:18.560 --> 01:50:20.680] they're operating the company. [01:50:20.680 --> 01:50:24.240] So yeah, and raise the eye. [01:50:24.240 --> 01:50:27.340] In the fact that you put it in there, now they're going to have to either come back [01:50:27.340 --> 01:50:33.440] and say, you know, oh yeah, we'll give you the books when you do discovery later, but [01:50:33.440 --> 01:50:38.520] you can always indicate that this is a potential—you know, that's an argument. [01:50:38.520 --> 01:50:40.040] You're not saying it's a fact. [01:50:40.040 --> 01:50:44.720] What you're saying is that it's believed that this is occurring. [01:50:44.720 --> 01:50:45.720] That's an allegation. [01:50:45.720 --> 01:50:48.360] You have reason to believe and do believe. [01:50:48.360 --> 01:50:49.360] That's enough. [01:50:49.360 --> 01:50:54.000] Yeah, there's actually tax records on that particular site, because they had already [01:50:54.000 --> 01:50:55.660] come into question before. [01:50:55.660 --> 01:50:59.080] They didn't get full clearance, but they already had come up against some questioning, [01:50:59.080 --> 01:51:01.840] and they tried to defend themselves in public all over the place. [01:51:01.840 --> 01:51:06.320] So it's not that this—and there's like hundreds and hundreds of articles regarding [01:51:06.320 --> 01:51:10.440] this particular organization and their misspenditure and hoaxiness. [01:51:10.440 --> 01:51:14.160] But don't be sidetracked. [01:51:14.160 --> 01:51:17.240] Oh, wait a minute. [01:51:17.240 --> 01:51:23.020] Their poor accounting is public knowledge. [01:51:23.020 --> 01:51:29.440] Well, it's questioned about how it's—yeah, it is public knowledge. [01:51:29.440 --> 01:51:34.100] You can bring public knowledge. [01:51:34.100 --> 01:51:37.400] But you don't want to bring it in the motion to dismiss, because it really has nothing [01:51:37.400 --> 01:51:38.940] to do with it. [01:51:38.940 --> 01:51:43.360] You can open the door to start discussing it, but you don't necessarily want to go [01:51:43.360 --> 01:51:46.080] to the argument, because now's not the time. [01:51:46.080 --> 01:51:47.080] Gotcha. [01:51:47.080 --> 01:51:54.280] I was going to say objection relevance— Yeah, each motion has a goal. [01:51:54.280 --> 01:51:57.600] Every objection to a motion they file, you have a goal. [01:51:57.600 --> 01:51:59.520] You always want to seek out that goal. [01:51:59.520 --> 01:52:05.200] Now a secondary goal might be to start to open the door to give them reasons to make [01:52:05.200 --> 01:52:16.780] a deal, but you don't want to necessarily, you know, start a, you know, large argument [01:52:16.780 --> 01:52:23.200] about an issue that you can't do anything about yet, because it's not time. [01:52:23.200 --> 01:52:25.040] It's premature to do that. [01:52:25.040 --> 01:52:26.040] Gotcha. [01:52:26.040 --> 01:52:28.280] Well, thank you so much, guys. [01:52:28.280 --> 01:52:32.040] I want to give you some more time to call from another caller, and I appreciate everything. [01:52:32.040 --> 01:52:36.200] And I'll give you guys a donation, and I'll send you that extra grievance again tonight. [01:52:36.200 --> 01:52:38.760] So thank you so much, Ken and Randy. [01:52:38.760 --> 01:52:39.760] You're welcome. [01:52:39.760 --> 01:52:40.960] Good, good. [01:52:40.960 --> 01:52:42.600] We need lots of grievances. [01:52:42.600 --> 01:52:46.920] So in order to make us happy, you may have to write a bunch more grievances. [01:52:46.920 --> 01:52:53.720] It looks like they're on their way for another one soon. [01:52:53.720 --> 01:52:54.720] Okay. [01:52:54.720 --> 01:52:56.600] Thank you, Zsa Zsa. [01:52:56.600 --> 01:52:57.600] Thank you. [01:52:57.600 --> 01:52:58.600] Okay. [01:52:58.600 --> 01:53:03.520] We have one more caller, Ramon in Texas. [01:53:03.520 --> 01:53:08.160] Ramon, you got about three minutes, because I'm going to want Ken to have time to close [01:53:08.160 --> 01:53:09.160] out. [01:53:09.160 --> 01:53:12.160] What do you got for us, Ramon? [01:53:12.160 --> 01:53:13.160] Oh. [01:53:13.160 --> 01:53:14.160] Hey, Randy. [01:53:14.160 --> 01:53:15.160] Quickly. [01:53:15.160 --> 01:53:16.160] Yeah. [01:53:16.160 --> 01:53:17.160] Yeah. [01:53:17.160 --> 01:53:18.160] I just wanted to... [01:53:18.160 --> 01:53:25.600] Well, I was really just wanting to say a comment on your caller, but I can wait if you want [01:53:25.600 --> 01:53:26.600] to just... [01:53:26.600 --> 01:53:27.600] No, no. [01:53:27.600 --> 01:53:32.000] We've got five minutes, and I wanted to give Ken a couple of minutes at the end to kind [01:53:32.000 --> 01:53:33.000] of close out. [01:53:33.000 --> 01:53:34.000] That's all. [01:53:34.000 --> 01:53:35.000] Oh, okay. [01:53:35.000 --> 01:53:41.640] Well, just wanted to touch base with you on that whole situation with the last statement [01:53:41.640 --> 01:53:42.640] that I received. [01:53:42.640 --> 01:53:43.640] It was basically... [01:53:43.640 --> 01:53:49.320] It had documented how long it's been as far as over the four-year statute of limitations. [01:53:49.320 --> 01:53:50.320] Okay. [01:53:50.320 --> 01:53:51.320] Yeah. [01:53:51.320 --> 01:53:52.320] Okay. [01:53:52.320 --> 01:53:54.720] So, have you written a motion to... [01:53:54.720 --> 01:53:55.720] Okay. [01:53:55.720 --> 01:54:00.480] They're not actually foreclosing. [01:54:00.480 --> 01:54:02.360] They're just threatening to. [01:54:02.360 --> 01:54:03.360] Well... [01:54:03.360 --> 01:54:05.160] Is that the... [01:54:05.160 --> 01:54:06.160] Yes, sir. [01:54:06.160 --> 01:54:07.160] Correct. [01:54:07.160 --> 01:54:08.160] Correct. [01:54:08.160 --> 01:54:09.160] Okay. [01:54:09.160 --> 01:54:15.760] It's time to go to them and say, look, guys, here is the problem that you have, and here's [01:54:15.760 --> 01:54:25.480] the issue I'm going to bring, and very good chance I'm going to win this. [01:54:25.480 --> 01:54:30.920] Make me a deal, because there's a very good chance you won't win it unless you have a [01:54:30.920 --> 01:54:31.920] lawyer. [01:54:31.920 --> 01:54:36.240] If you have a lawyer, then let the lawyer handle it, because there's a good chance you [01:54:36.240 --> 01:54:40.640] can win this with a lawyer. [01:54:40.640 --> 01:54:41.840] Can there... [01:54:41.840 --> 01:54:47.440] Over four years since they declared him in default. [01:54:47.440 --> 01:54:57.840] If there's a statutory prohibition, what they're doing is they're threatening a frivolous lawsuit. [01:54:57.840 --> 01:54:58.840] Yeah. [01:54:58.840 --> 01:54:59.840] No. [01:54:59.840 --> 01:55:01.840] What they were trying to do... [01:55:01.840 --> 01:55:06.320] What they were trying to do is con him into making a payment. [01:55:06.320 --> 01:55:07.320] Yeah. [01:55:07.320 --> 01:55:08.320] Don't do it. [01:55:08.320 --> 01:55:10.320] How much did they ask you to send them? [01:55:10.320 --> 01:55:19.160] Well, the balance has been brought down to $60,000 pay in full, or make a payment of [01:55:19.160 --> 01:55:21.600] like $1,100 on a certain... [01:55:21.600 --> 01:55:22.600] Yeah. [01:55:22.600 --> 01:55:23.600] It ain't... [01:55:23.600 --> 01:55:24.600] In a month... [01:55:24.600 --> 01:55:25.600] Yeah. [01:55:25.600 --> 01:55:30.120] If he makes that payment, the clock starts all over again. [01:55:30.120 --> 01:55:31.960] They were setting him up. [01:55:31.960 --> 01:55:32.960] Yeah. [01:55:32.960 --> 01:55:41.280] So it went from, let's just say, over $100,000 to $60,000 to $1,100, and we're all friends [01:55:41.280 --> 01:55:42.280] again. [01:55:42.280 --> 01:55:43.280] Yeah. [01:55:43.280 --> 01:55:46.800] So now you're in a good spot. [01:55:46.800 --> 01:55:52.240] I'd put a letter together and send him the fact that the statute of limitations is over [01:55:52.240 --> 01:55:57.560] on that issue, and that you're going to essentially file a bar grievance against him if he sends [01:55:57.560 --> 01:56:04.480] you another letter or attempts to essentially simulate a legal process. [01:56:04.480 --> 01:56:11.480] And with the Santiago Mackey case, you sue the crapola out of him if he files any documentation [01:56:11.480 --> 01:56:13.400] in the case. [01:56:13.400 --> 01:56:18.640] Now when you say here, you're referring or inferring to a lawyer for the other party [01:56:18.640 --> 01:56:19.640] because it's... [01:56:19.640 --> 01:56:20.640] Yes. [01:56:20.640 --> 01:56:21.640] It's not... [01:56:21.640 --> 01:56:22.640] You don't... [01:56:22.640 --> 01:56:23.640] You never talk to the other party. [01:56:23.640 --> 01:56:24.640] You talk to their lawyers. [01:56:24.640 --> 01:56:26.000] It's the lawyer. [01:56:26.000 --> 01:56:27.880] The lawyer sent you the letter. [01:56:27.880 --> 01:56:31.120] He shouldn't have ever sent you the letter because of the statute of limitations. [01:56:31.120 --> 01:56:37.560] Well, actually, it's just a statement from an alleged debt company. [01:56:37.560 --> 01:56:39.120] Oh, okay. [01:56:39.120 --> 01:56:43.240] Oh, file a complaint with the state on that, the attorney general. [01:56:43.240 --> 01:56:45.040] They're not allowed to send you those letters. [01:56:45.040 --> 01:56:46.040] Yeah. [01:56:46.040 --> 01:56:47.040] The FDCPA... [01:56:47.040 --> 01:56:51.040] That letter is decent at this. [01:56:51.040 --> 01:56:52.040] Okay. [01:56:52.040 --> 01:56:53.840] That makes sense. [01:56:53.840 --> 01:56:56.160] That could get an FDCPA suit. [01:56:56.160 --> 01:56:57.160] Yeah. [01:56:57.160 --> 01:57:02.600] But at least it begins a trial of paperwork for me to bill the case on. [01:57:02.600 --> 01:57:03.600] Yes. [01:57:03.600 --> 01:57:04.600] Right. [01:57:04.600 --> 01:57:07.160] You always want to lay a paper trail. [01:57:07.160 --> 01:57:08.160] Okay. [01:57:08.160 --> 01:57:09.160] Thank you, Ramon. [01:57:09.160 --> 01:57:10.160] Great. [01:57:10.160 --> 01:57:11.160] Thank you. [01:57:11.160 --> 01:57:12.160] Thank you. [01:57:12.160 --> 01:57:13.160] Thank you. [01:57:13.160 --> 01:57:18.140] You want to kind of close out, Ken, about basically what should people understand if [01:57:18.140 --> 01:57:20.920] they're looking at family court. [01:57:20.920 --> 01:57:27.000] Well, unfortunately, three minutes isn't going to do it, but there's a more important issue. [01:57:27.000 --> 01:57:28.320] Elections are ongoing right now. [01:57:28.320 --> 01:57:30.360] Actually, you only got a minute. [01:57:30.360 --> 01:57:31.360] Okay. [01:57:31.360 --> 01:57:34.320] We're going to talk about the elections then because there's no way I can address the other [01:57:34.320 --> 01:57:36.200] issue in that time. [01:57:36.200 --> 01:57:41.520] It's important for people to vote regardless of whether or not you like the candidates. [01:57:41.520 --> 01:57:42.520] You pick one. [01:57:42.520 --> 01:57:47.720] The idea is otherwise people get to go to office and spend your money without you having [01:57:47.720 --> 01:57:49.200] any say in it. [01:57:49.200 --> 01:57:52.400] So participate, that's the whole idea of this country. [01:57:52.400 --> 01:57:54.320] So go and vote. [01:57:54.320 --> 01:57:55.320] Absolutely. [01:57:55.320 --> 01:58:00.880] If you don't vote, you don't have a say. [01:58:00.880 --> 01:58:01.880] Right. [01:58:01.880 --> 01:58:05.480] I don't want to hear the bitching and moaning later. [01:58:05.480 --> 01:58:12.720] Frustrating when we hear that this country who essentially started this procedure gets [01:58:12.720 --> 01:58:16.280] 11 percent of the public to vote. [01:58:16.280 --> 01:58:18.280] That is absolutely shameful. [01:58:18.280 --> 01:58:20.280] So go vote. [01:58:20.280 --> 01:58:21.280] Okay. [01:58:21.280 --> 01:58:29.680] This is Randy Kelton and Deborah Stevens with our special guest, Ken Magnusson, and thank [01:58:29.680 --> 01:58:31.240] you, Ken, for being here. [01:58:31.240 --> 01:58:33.240] It's a great show. [01:58:33.240 --> 01:58:39.120] We won't be here tomorrow, we'll have to put in an archive. [01:58:39.120 --> 01:58:42.560] We're having a technical issue, so we won't be able to do a live broadcast tomorrow. [01:58:42.560 --> 01:58:45.240] But we'll be back next week with our live show. [01:58:45.240 --> 01:58:46.240] Thank you all for listening. [01:58:46.240 --> 01:58:48.240] We'll be back next week. [01:59:16.240 --> 01:59:20.760] or visit us online at BFA.org.
