"This call may be recorded (for quality and training purposes)" -- what happens when it's not Ann Ravel's legacy? If not, then whose? Who supervises County Counsel? -- *Is* there any supervision? "Probably 3 years .. could be longer .. depending on how it was done" (Marc Buller) Dateline: July 1, 2009 The clock was timing out on me. I knew Ann Ravel would be leaving imminently (if not already) for Washington and from past experience that it was pointless to leave any further voice mails for her or to try to reach her through their receptionist's phone number: 408.299.5500. So I thought I'd try for her supervisor (which from my limited knowledge appeared to be, but wasn't entirely sure on this one, the County Executive, then Gary Graves who was replaced the following month). On page 13 of my complaint was my deposition under penalty of perjury of the framing of an innocent officer with an assault and battery and I asked Mark Bernal (in "Risk Management") to make sure the DA (then Dolores Carr) saw it. But never seemed to get an acknowledgment out of him that this would happen (in fact, all I seemed to get was him trying to desperately convince me the complaint no longer existed). The only copy the county had after I served them with it publicly on February 10, 2009 was the one I gave to Lori Pegg who Mark Bernal told me went to John Winchester and then himself. The question I'm left with is if Ann Ravel ever saw it (or anyone else in the line of supervision -- which is why you need the org-chart). Lori Pegg could have kept it hidden from her. I needed to know, in essence, what County Counsel knew and when they knew it. If at all. And who knew it. And would only be able to find the answers from them personally (never trust a subordinate, it's hearsay anyway and prone to all sorts of error, intentional or not). The answer I got was, in essence, to stop asking these questions and that if I persisted I'd be cited under section 653m of the Penal Code. "I'm out of my league" I thought to myself after hearing this. A county counsel's office with sergeants from the Sheriff's office at their disposal to intimidate plaintiffs (and undoubtedly any of the plaintiff's lawyers as well) if they get out of line. "Who do you call?" The whole thing would make anyone ill. And illness is excusable delay. |
I will never abandon this case
Everyone knows it broken, it only lacks for someone to effectively file the complaint and get it in front of a jury. "Your're not going to get anywhere" Anthony Lewis told me, until I finish my filing and serving. Sorry I'm late, I know you've been waiting awhile now to see it across your desk there. You will. Next: the "todo" list itself .. 11-15-2011, 11-16-2011 |

Exceptional circumstances have as yet to be absent. The whole
thing would make anyone ill. You can't even file a complex
case1 without the designation, let alone appeal it.
"Ultimately, on the issue of unrepresented litigants, a half million2" I told Judge Elfving who then recused himself.
As did Judges Emerson, Levinger and Kleinberg. Presiding Judge
Jacobs-May then had to order it (7-30-09), "for all further pre-trial
proceedings, except discovery", into Judge Cabrinha's court. "We
need more judges" I told the court bluntly (10-30-09). After
seeing how overwhelmed it was. Indeed, one of my first questions
(8-26-09) to the court was to ask it how much time it had. "Not much" I
heard bluntly. The court was right (12-4-09): I have an issue with the
state on this one. I might as well have asked how much justice
I could expect. 1: |

"Our beats are too long to be walked anymore.." Nevertheless, they ALL must be told. And for whom does the bell toll? "When are you going to do that?" Judge Cabrinha demanded. It tolls for me. |
But can it be tolled? Can it ever be told? |
The American Bar Association The State Bar of California Santa Clara County Bar Association Just a few crumbs of their time is all I ask. Telephone support. Who will defend them all from my suit on behalf of all those who can't afford it? "I don't work for free" (former DA George Kennedy) .. at least he was honest about it. |

11-3-09: A week later. Half hour late for the City Council meeting ("the story of my life"). So I dropped off more papers at the City Clerk's office and went up to the 16th floor to find out from the City Attorney's office if Chris Bielecki would be willing to join me as a plaintiff. Looking for an answer. "It means you'll have to leave". Richard Doyle was smiling the week before. I know it will be painful for him to read it. |

March 19, 2006 -- the clock starts ticking. "Probably three years .. could be longer .." depending on how it was done
I visited the DA's office again (10/2/09) and left the evidence with John
Savala. And I filed it verbally with the court Aug 26, 2009.
Witnessed by Judge Cabrinha, Mark Bernal Esq., Barry Marsh Esq., Melody Dickinson
(court reporter), Deputy M.
Wyllie (bailiff). Were the words I left with them. And it matters not one whit as to whether it was a false alarm. It's still the same. Everyone disappeared. Save the bailiff. Standing. And did not look at me. Waiting.. "We're all waiting on Dolores" (Lee Sturtevant, just after the DA took office). "We take my Oath of Office seriously" -- why isn't it "our" and why don't I see this quote from Dolores on their website anymore? 8-28-09, 11-4-09, 11-08-09, 11-20-09 |
