Tembeckjian's Latest Goon Squad Stunt

SHEL JUDGE AND PANEL 'SLUG' IT OUT
The New York Post by DAN MANGAN - July 28, 2009

An upstate judge is in hot water for calling Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver a "slug" in The Post's pages. The state Commission on Judicial Conduct last week hauled Cattaraugus County Judge Larry Himelein, 60, before a referee on undisclosed charges. Himelein admits he used the epithet to describe the Lower East Side Democrat over long-stalled pay raises for New York judges -- but insists he did so in a leaked e-mail to fellow judges, not in an April 2008 phone interview with The Post in which he confirmed he was refusing to hear cases involving Weitz & Luxenberg, Silver's employer. The commission is also probing whether he said, "I think the speaker is a slug." Subpoenaed Post reporter Bruce Golding testified his report was accurate. A lawyer not involved in the case said Himelein was likely to get just a private warning if convicted of detracting "from the dignity of judicial office." But if found to have misled the panel, he faces tougher sanctions, including possible removal, the source said. dan.mangan@nypost.com

Judge revolt vs. me pointless, Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver sez
The New York Daily News bY ELIZABETH BENJAMIN - May 5, 2008

Judges trying tomake Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver pay - literally - by targeting his law firm in their ongoing war over judicial salary hikes are missing the mark, the speaker said Sunday. "They don't realize I have no interest in the firm, so they're not hurting me personally," Silver said. "I have no interest in litigation. The only interest I have is in what I bring in [through case referrals], which is very minimal." Silver's comments came on the heels of reports that upstate judges are either slowing down or recusing themselves from cases brought by his Manhattan law firm, Weitz & Luxenberg, or trying to get the firm disqualified outright from at least one lucrative Medicaid fraud case. The speaker, who is of counsel at the firm, continued to insist yesterday that he actually supports a judicial pay raise, adding, "I would like to see that they, along with other people, get what is due them."

Judicial salary increases have traditionally been linked in Albany to pay raises for state lawmakers - a political hot-button issue, particularly at a time when the state is facing a fiscal crisis. Neither legislators nor judges have seen a raise since January 1999. The stalled pay raise is the subject of three lawsuits against state leaders, including one filed by Chief Judge Judith Kaye. The  judicial revolt largely has been led by upstate judges. Cattaraugus County Judge Larry Himelein, a Democrat like Silver, reportedly went so far as to call the speaker "a slug." The speaker refused to respond in kind to the name-calling, saying only: "I don't know who the guy is. I question if that's the way he speaks in public whether he belongs on the bench. But that's his problem, not mine." ebenjamin@nydailynews.com

Oh, so Shelly Silver picks up the phone and gets a judge attacked by the CJC. Who else tells you what to do, Bob? Surely, you're not guided by the law, decency or what you're supposed to do.... Resign, Bob,- before you get indicted!

Tembeckjian is a wimp. Won't latest long in prison.

Now we know why Tembeckjian's band of fools ignore judges who commit real crimes. They are out picking on judges who exercise their first amendment right of free speach. REMOVE TEMBECKJIAN TODAY !!!

The CJC files charges about the truth...Silver is a SLUG...absolutely and postively...but the CJC REFUSES to file EVEN a complaint against a female administrative judge with documented criminal behavior.

Disband the CJC...it is a major part of our judicial criminal problem... and give me a break....John Postel of Rochester...being a jerk was not attractive on you! You always did want to be desired...clean up your act...you are an embarrassment!

Slug Silver's slime trail can seen going into Tembeckjian's office and coming out.

the CJC should have filed on the administrative judge and the walls would have come tumbling down....
instead they continue this insanity

Please realize that Tembeckjian is only doing what he's told and paid to do. Like a toilet cleaner. The law has nothing to do with the likes of Robert Tembeckjian , Alan Friedberg or Sherry (it's 8am, give me another drink) Cohen.

As everyone knows, Bob Tembeckjian's wife, Barbara Ross, is a New York Daily News Reporter who covers the court system. (Am I the only one who sees a conflict here?!?)
Anyway, I got the following background article from an upstate court employee. Tembeckjian's wife, Barbara Ross, did NOT write it, but it's good history:

Very interesting that the crap Tembeckjian's been doing for a long time is coming out in the open. When is this worm going to be removed and disbarred.

Sheldon Silver,

You are not a slug. You are a disgusting, Nazi, power mad, soulless lump of maggot covered shit.

You should fire the judge for understating your depravity.

Let me get this straight, a Judge gets diciplined for name calling of a public official, but I have to go before the likes of Scarpino and the rest of the corrupt 9th JD who wouldn't know a Constitutional or Legal right if it bit them on the butt, and nothing at all happens to them.
I love NY. (not in the least)

ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST said...

This sums it all up..

1) You have Judges and Lawyers Chairman's, Chief Counsel's, ADA'S committing crimes, and victimizing the victim's, DA's turning a blind eye to criminal complaints, Police Officer's ignoring sexual assaults!!!!

2) You have the DDC allowing Lawyers to get away with it all, and further victimizing the witnesses and complainants !!!!

3) You have the CJC allowing Judges the same privileges as the Lawyers!!!!!!

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?

IS IT ME, OR ARE THESE PEOPLE TOTALLY OUT OF THEIR MINDS!!!!!!!!!!! LOCK THESE BASTARDS UP AND DON'T FORGET TO THROW AWAY THE KEY!!!!!!!

Although I don't agree with Judge Himelein with the pay issue, I do agree with him on the fact that Shelly is a SLUG! Well spoken Judge Himelein and you showed amazing restrain with your words in my opinion.

To those behind this site and the many who post appropriate comments, I wish you the best in your efforts.

our FEDS have to start it, they must be tired of the calls,
our CJC must be taken over by the FEDS, one state at a time, until the corrupt realize they will be accountable!

Lippman has been a fixture at OCA for over 30 yrs...so he has been privy to , participated in and advised the panel of judges and administrators in their behaviors that skirt and violate the laws of NY to benefit judicial greed and power propensities...mostly from his own non-judicial private door position, that isolated his complicity!

Do you think Slick Slug Silver gave this judicially inexperienced butt whine this chief judge job because he was qualified?

It was done quickly and corruptly to ensure the protection of crimes that OCA and the politicians assumed would never come out....because they never counted on the power that the information on this site invoked, as well as alerted the regular... unaware of all the loose and criminal court activities.... population of this state.... to the real courthouse environment.... that exists throughout ALL COURTS in NY state.

This population is now becoming uncontrollably disgusted due to the lack of obligation on the part of the FBI and media to inform, report and investigate this spiralling court corruption!

Lippman is the captain of a sinking ship...and he cannot swim~

Anonymous said...

then the FEDS should take over the CJC and the Administrative Judges should be FEDS, not appoint the corrupt by other corrupt people

this is ridiculous all these agencies to report to, that is why nothing happens!

Anonymous said...

attorney grievance needs to only handle the complaints if our lawyers are lying to us for ongoing cases & refer us out to the appropriate counsel.....
why would the admin judge be in charge of the Bar's referral program, the pro bono and the court
so they can protect the corrupt!

Just a suggestion.

All you honest, retired officers of the court who are disgusted with what is happening, would it be possible for you to get togther, maybe through the moderator of this blog, to create a plan or strategy to get this state on the straight and narrow path of justice and accountability?

Just a thought. But, Please help.

for that to happen we would have to expose this site, literally,

including those who have taken part in all of this only because it was their job to be corrupt
