Tammany Hall II, Public Corruption Scandal Grows – by $1.5 Billion
A federal court-ordered hearing in the New York State Ethics Scandal Case (Anderson v. State of New York 07cv 9599) was held in Courtroom 15C of the United States Courthouse at 500 Pearl Street in Manhattan on Wednesday, December 12, 2007 before U.S. District Court Judge Shira A. Scheindlin.
Numerous reports confirm the hearing quickly turned extraordinary.
Federal Judge Scheindlin first read into the record a list of 8 different people from around the world who had copied the court on various correspondence concerning the New York Ethics Scandal and their support for the appointment of a federal monitor.
An author of one of the letters, P. Stephen Lamont of Iviewit, immediately advised the court that he was withdrawing his copying of his letter to the court in light of an associated federal complaint filed shortly before the hearing.
A court law clerk then handed Judge Scheindlin a copy of the just-filed complaint, Bernstein v. 1st Dept. Disciplinary Committee, et al. (S.D.N.Y 07cv 11196, filed December 12, 2007)
The $1.5 Billion Dollar Bernstein complaint alleges widespread public corruption in the handling of ethics complaints involving fraud and stolen U.S Patents by various New York law firms and attorneys. The action by Bernstein has been marked as an associated case to the Anderson lawsuit since both matters concern allegations of Ethics Committee Public Corruption and, additionally, both cases seek the appointment of a federal monitor over New York State ethics committees.
Bernstein’s allegations, and known as "Patentgate" are currently under review by numerous U.S. Senators, the U.S. Congress, the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the FBI’s watchdog unit, the Office of Professional Responsibility in Washington, D.C.
The defense counsel in the Anderson matter, a Lee Alan Adlerstein from the New York State Attorney General’s office, attempted to categorize the Anderson case as a simple wrongful termination action, but the Judge did not see it that way-- and said so.
“This case is not a garden variety…it’s a whistleblower…there is that aspect to it…," said Judge Scheindlin.
Informed sources reveal that at least one more associated federal complaint will be filed soon, along with other various filings that will pull together serious allegations of ethics related public corruption from every corner of New York State.
Stay tuned to this story: Tammany Hall II – this is history, albeit ugly, in the making…
And we’ll be posting the One and one-half Billion dollar Patentgate lawsuit soon!
This is a good start! I'll be watching.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the Iviewit filing.
ReplyDeleteExcellent news! Let the lawsuits fly in! Overhere, in the Netherlands, I am still working on a amended ethics grievance -- against Melvyn Weiss and associates at Milberg Weiss -- which will reveal, in most obvious terms, that the Disciplinary Committee whitewashed the ethics grievance against Mel Weiss. My case is not a billion dollar issue, though I will hold the Disciplinary Committee responsible for their severe negligence [tort] in my case. Secondly: I have a surprise due for judge Greenaway in the Genta litigation:-)) Stay tuned!
ReplyDeleteI was present for part of the Anderson v. State matter, then it was annouced that Mr. S. Lamont/Iviewit had just filed this case - WOW! Even the Judge took note! From what I could see there were some other folks that additionally wanted to join in. Good Luck it looks to be interesting.
ReplyDeleteHere is hoping NYC gives a big push to cases filed in areas outside of it! It should be more impactful if federal court sees cases filed against OCA AGENCIES ALL OVER THE STATE! Good luck to all of what is going on in NYC!
ReplyDeletejust take a look at the list of employees over thier. Just look at
ReplyDeleteat the racial diversity of Manhattan and then look at how few minoritys that work thier.
Look at how they hire people not by qualifications by who they know to get in.
IF any private company had such a small percentage of minoritys they probably would be sued and forced to become equal opertunity employers.
That's the way the big law firms especially the "white Shoe" ones get to control the system and get away with all their criminal doings - they don't want any n*****s in the wood pile!
ReplyDeleteIs the State of New YOrk standing up for the crooks now? Is part of a coverup?
ReplyDeleteI've seen the website on "Iviewit" the ones that filed this federal suit, man it's wild! There are pictures of this guy Bernstein's car that the lawyers/thugs blew-up! This is serious dude!
ReplyDeleteLuisa Esposito said...I was there and I think Honorable Scheindlin was great. Hopefully they'll assign federal monitoring and Justice will PREVAIL....
ReplyDeleteThank God for CorruptCourts..how else would we know what these shysters were up to.
ReplyDeleteLord only knows what else these creeps got away with... people were too afraid to go against these monsters and bullies, therefore, never reporting it..or reported it and it was swept under the rug.
ReplyDeletei want to see Cahill and Cohen in handcuffs for all the damage that they have done to good people!
ReplyDeleteoops, I meant exposecorruptcourts..typo
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the complaint against the woman that was sexually abused by her attorney Allen H. Isaac and how they are protecting him..He should be behind bars and disbarred..but yet he continues to practice law..go figure..he's got the DDC in his pocket also...I hope she exposes their corruption in her lawsuit, so that all could see how the DDC even protects sexual predators.
ReplyDeleteWhile surfing I came across this blog which is very good. It is even more important because approximately 6 years ago I filed several complaints against attorneys in the 1st Dept. that just died. I kept calling speaking with various people including Mr. Thomas Cahill and all I was told was to resend the complaints because they could not find them, they had been lost. After the 5th time I gave up! Reading all this I now have a pretty good handle on what happened.
ReplyDeleteOCA cannot get away with anything more. Shortly, some DISCOVERY will be expressed, exposed and manifested...much to the stupidity and arrogance of their legal dept and ATTY JOHN J. SULLIVAN, ESQ. What is included in this document is going to be A ball buster and shock for these losers! OCA never knew what went on upstate for years! The type of people, the events and finally the judicial actions taken without any knowledge of all of this ( only an attempt by NYC employees and judiciary to protect the ethnicity and political status of these hacks), will be a JOY to present! MARK YOUR CALENDAR FOR jan 2, 2008!
ReplyDeleteWhen is the NY TImes going to FULLy run a story on the corruption.
