Lippman Whines On, But Still Mum on Rampant Corruption

The judge whines on
The New York Post - EDITORIAL - April 9, 2011

New York Chief Judge Jonathan Lippman still doesn’t get it: The state continues to face difficult economic times. Sure, he says he understands the “extraordinary fiscal challenges” confronting Albany. But he apparently believes that he and his court system are exempt from having to do their part by sacrificing. Or should be exempt, anyway. Lippman last week told court employees via webcast that many of their jobs are in peril because of the $170 million that was cut from his proposed $2.7 billion budget by Gov. Cuomo and the Legislature. “Let there be no mistake,” he said. “The impact of our reduced budget will hurt our ability to serve all New Yorkers, and in particular those who come to our courts seeking justice.” Now, pretty much every agency is singing the same tune. But only Lippman dared to draw a line in the sand, having threatened earlier that the $100 million he’d already offered was “the maximum we can do without fatally wounding my branch of government.” The odd possessive pronoun aside (his branch of government?), that $100 million offer was Lippman’s grudging concession to the governor’s insistence on a 10% across-the-board cut in all agencies. At first, Lippman actually demanded a 5% increase over last year’s spending. And even the final figure of $170 million amounts to a 6.3% reduction — far less than executive-branch agencies. The cut in court funding, he whined, is “dramatically larger” than any seen over the past 15 years. That’s for sure: In just the five years before this one, court budgets were up a staggering 28.8% — versus an inflation rate of just 11.4%. And since Lippman took office in 2009, the figure is 12.7% — against just 1.2% inflation. Lippman, in other words, is used to treating the public fisc as his and agency’s personal ATM — with an unlimited line of credit. Which no doubt explains why the Court of Appeals is spending more than $23 million to convert an old office building into a set of subsidized luxury suites for the justices — who spend barely 60 days a year in Albany. Time for Judge Lippman to man up and make do with less — like everyone else.

    Lippman can't 'man up' because he's wearing a dress.
    Lippman's gotta go. Period.

  4. I worked for OCA almost as long as Lipppman...and his assessment is an absolute lie!
    OCA could terminate 30-40% of it's politically positioned staff and function very well....I know because I never needed any of them to function at a very high level.
    I saw OCA up the salaries yearly of exempt politically connected employees and create top paying positions filling them with their ineptness and spiraling laziness. The public needs to know the truth and visit the courthouses that OCA/NYC has locked down in the rest of the state over the past 10 yrs...UNLOCK THOSE COURTHOUSES... ESP THE OFFICES... and see for yourself NY'ERS.
    There are crimes going on behind closed doors.

  5. How many other judges besides Judge Chrles Ramos did JUstice Lippman give special permission to become executors of Estates while they are sitting New York City Judges being paid by the tax payer of New York? Judge Ramos and his attorneys managed to take Millions of dollars in fees that Herbert Weissberg bequest to heirs of the Weissberg family. It was never Herbert's intention to make Judge Ramos and his cronnies rich form his Estate. Justice Lippman sold the Weissbergs down the river. How many other innocent heirs become Victims of the New York Court Systme? Where is the investigagion called for over and over again on this blog? The NY Arbitartion Sysmtem should be investigaed as well. One thing you can never get when a powerful sitting New York Judge like Ramos becomes your executive, is a fair and just hearing any where in the NY Court Systme or what is rightfully yours. There should be an ivestigation and those in power who abuse their power to enrich themselves should be investigated and exposed so this doesn't keep happening to other innoncent victims of the New York Court System. Shame, shame on all of them.

  6. Aren't the NY Post and its editors and reporters tough and knowledgeable? They'll slap Lippman on the wrist and ignore the tidal wave of NY Court corruption drowning its victims. Do the NY Post's reporters know how to use the internet to conduct a search using Judge Lippman NY? Which title do the Post's editors prefer "enablers of Lippman's corruption" or "accessories to Lippman's crimes"?

  7. The following is an interesting Comment by Lippman:

    “Let there be no mistake,” he said. “The impact of our reduced budget will hurt our ability to serve all New Yorkers, and in particular those who come to our courts seeking justice.”

    Query: Are not all of the Judicial processes supposed to be about "Justice"?

    Is Lippman tacitly admitting or implying that:

    Those who come to Court the old style way to get a Crooked Deal will still be fine but those "who come to our courts seeking justice" will be further harmed?

    Anyone seen the Video of Lippman posted by the Albany Times Union?

    Interesting the way he refers to the "Judicial Family" is this the 6th Family that NYers need to be worried about?

  8. Why does Charles Ramos live in Conn. and Lippman knows it and does nothing? The 1st Dept. PJ is more than $400,000 over budget, they spent money like a bunch of drunks. Cut all the Judges pay by 50% and bar them from outside gigs. Lippman will scream like the pigs that he and his wife are. They all milk the system for all they can get including their pensions.

  9. The Center for Judicial Conduct ("SCJC") should start their investigation and probe of Judges and Court Corruption by scrutinizing the Family Court Judges in Brooklyn at Jay Street and Manhattan at 60 Lafayette Street.

    Each and every one of these Family Court Judges are bought and paid for, or are beholden to, any one of the following monied lobbies in New York City, and these New York Family Court Judges know very well which side "their bread is buttered."

    If they ever have a lawyer or client in front of them being represented or supported by these lobbying entities, they will literally bend over backwards to rule in their favor or accomodate them, even if it means violating Ethics Rules, endangering the welfare of children, breaking the law, accepting bribes in the form of awards/ dinners/ judgeships/ promotions, thereby alienating/ bankrupting/ jailing good parents who are not fortunate enough to be in the "right club," or worse.

    These corrupted Family Court Judges will ignore psychologist reports that say the "unfavored" parents is mentally healthy and sound, and will encourage Forensic Psychologists to write bad things about the "unfavored" parent.

    They will use their position on the Bench to intimidate, threaten, harass, and destroy anyone that stands in their path to awarding child custody to the "favored" parent, regardless if that "favored" parent is drug-addicted, alcoholic, abusive, violent, or mentally unstable, thus endangering the safety and welfare of the kids.

    All one has to do, to find these corrupting monied lobbying agency culprits, is to read closely the biographies of these "whore-like Family Court Judges" to find out just who is corrupting the Family Court System in New York City, resulting in hurt, impoverished, and murdered children in the City of New York.

    Even the Administration for Childrens Services ("ACS") in New York is terrified of these corrupting agencies for precisely this same reason - ie, their absolute and total power over the Bench in the New York Family Court System.

  10. The New York FBI, the New York Attorney Generals Office, the New York U.S. Attorneys Office, and the New York Center for Judicial Conduct ("SCJC") should start their investigation and probe of Judges and Court Corruption by scrutinizing the New York Family Court Judges in Brooklyn at 330 Jay Street and Manhattan at 60 Lafayette Street.

  11. Recruiting new children into the Global Child Sex Trafficking/Pornography Industry, worth trillions of dollars worldwide, works this way in the United States (especially in the corrupt New York City Family Courts):

    A Prostitute, usually coming from this same industry, entraps and has a child with a wealthy but naive father who she then divorces and makes him pay a fortune in mandatory Child Support, about 21% of his income a year for 21 years.

    All the while, she provokes and instigates him repeatedly until he reacts and she can then obtain Orders of Protection against him, so he can never even see his own kids, but still pays a fortune in support.

    Usually some type of Domestic Violence Women's group will represent that con-artist woman/prostitute for free, said group routinely staffed with Pedophiles and Sexual Deviants who also support and actively partake in the Global Child Sex Trafficking Industry. Some of these "agencies" even are so bold as to have a "wing" of their organization devoted to "stopping or preventing child sex trafficking." (The Lady Doth Protest Too Much - William Shakespeare) to further obfuscate and cover their tracks and true intentions.

    This is all the while the poor SOB Father has to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for lawyers who always lose, owing to the above, and the following:

    The Family Court Judges in New York City and the Law Guardian chosen in these child custody cases (and the Court Appointed Forensic Psychologists) are also Perverts, Pedophiles, and they support and participate in the Global Child Sex Trafficking/Pornography Industry, and may even be willing and active participants.

    The Family Court Judge and Law Guardian are literally hand picked by the "Domestic Violence Women's Lobbying Group" to ensure that those kids never ever see their Fathers (who can protect them) again, by repeatedly and consistently disallowing those Fathers to see their children, with less and less time, until finally the Father's Parental Rights are terminated for good, leaving those poor defenseless children in the sole custody of that vile, drug addicted, alcoholic, violent, deranged, descendent of the child porn industry prostitute mother, who now, free to do so without any prevention by the estranged and removed Biological Father - SURPRISE! sells those kids off to the highest bidder in the Global Child Sex Trafficking/Pornography Industry, again, worth trillions of dollars a year.

    And then the cycle repeats itself a generation later with those "sold off children" doing it to their own kids, their souls having been lost forever.

    Meanwhile the FBI, ICE, DHS, and other Federal and State Law Enforcement Agencies do absolutely nothing (many of them may be pedophiles, partaking of this child sex industry as well).

    These "law enforcement agencies" will tell you "it's not in their Mandate" or "there's nothing we can do," and will tell you to refer it to the Administration for Childrens Services ("ACS") which is equally if not more corrupt, also staffed with incompetents and corrupt caseworkers, and at the higher levels perverts and pedophiles, and also just as beholden and owned by the Global Child Sex Trafficking/Pornography Industry as the specially selected Family Court Judges and Law Guardians.

    All ACS ever does is sweep legitimate allegations and complaints about the above under the rug, while attacking and vilifying the Complainant.

    In other words, there is a Grand Conspiracy of Global Child Sex Trafficking, completely fool proof and airtight, and no one can (or will) do a goddamned thing about it.

    If you try and complain about it, or try and launch an investigation into it, both you and your world will be crushed by the awesome money, power, political connections, lobbying groups, and "professionals" in charge of maintaining and preserving this "industry."

    Count on it.

  13. THE NATIONAL SECURITY PROBLEM OF CORRUPTION

    The United States was founded as a Constitutional Republican Democracy. It only works when people are free to do business with one another, speak their minds freely, and when there is accountability for one's actions.

    Unfortunately, America as a free constitutional republican democratic form of government has been corrupted, subverted and dragged down by special interest groups, lobbying agencies, the balkanization of its people into opposing and militant groups, and its instruments and agents of administration have been perverted by money and bureaucratic red tape.

    Being honest, hardworking, and truthful no longer will guarantee you success in business or in relationships.

    You must now also become a politician and professional ass-kisser to survive in the United States, by allying yourselves with, and essentially selling your soul to, the powers that be in this country, ie.whoever has the most money and influence over the Courts, the Government, and the different governmental and private agencies regulating our daily life, etc.

    If you are unfortunate enough to live in any of the major cities of the United States this has now become an unfortunate but essential component of life - people in rural areas still know what freedom feels like.

    The true enemies of today's society are anyone who falls into BOTH of the following categories: (1) they dominate or head a militant or balkanized "group" within the United States of America, such as feminists, racists, bigots, sexists, fundamentalists; and (2) belong to another entity, far larger and greater than the first "group," but with interests that are often at odds with the aims, goals, aspirations, and directions of the United States of America.

    If you are unfortunate enough to clash with one of these "enemies," then your world is over unless you immediately bend over, suck in your pride, become a political whore, stifle your freedom of speech and own opinions, and take it up the proverbial ass.

    Then you may have a chance of not losing your freedom, your business, your job, your children, your family, and your life.

    I will let you all figure out who these enemies are.

    The FBI, CIA, DOJ, local Police Departments, and all other law enforcement and protective agencies, which are charged with safeguarding and protecting all Americans in their Constitutional rights to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness," have all been subverted and hamstrung by the enemies listed above, and although these agencies are mostly populated and staffed by well-meaning, initially idealistic, educated Americans, who took an Oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution, they are also, absolutely and totally powerless to do anything about it.

    For many of them, it feels like they are stuck behind a thick unbreakable pane of glass, while watching a slow gruesome violent murder that is taking place - the murder of the United States of America.

    And even they know that their bosses, in order to even get that job in the first place, are all bought and paid for and owned, lock stock and barrel, by the better funded sects of these "enemies" within the United States.

    God help America.

  14. The New York FBI is well aware that the New York Family Courts, the only court that remains anonymous and non-public, remains this way precisely because it is actively used by foreign and domestic espionage, terrorist, activist, and other criminal organized crime elements for the purpose of entrapment, extortion, blackmail, covering up child pornography/sexual abuse/exploitation, and other criminal acts directed against certain targeted people for political, ideological, financial, or other nasty reasons, and most if not all of the Family Court Judges and Personnel are either aware of this, know about it, or actually take active part in it.

    Again - it is the ONLY court in the nation which does not operate publicly and operates in the shadows as a proverbial Star Chamber - much the like the Disciplinary Committees - but even the Criminal Courts are part of the public record - so why not the Family Courts?

    Now you know why.
