Judge Land Fines Orly Taitz $20K, File Copy of Order with State Bar of CA
United States District Court (Georgia) ^ | 10/13/2009 | Judge Clay Land

Posted on 10/13/2009 7:45:31 AM PDT by BuckeyeTexan

When a lawyer files complaints and motions without a reasonable basis for believing that they are supported by existing law or a modification or extension of existing law, that lawyer abuses her privilege to practice law. When a lawyer uses the courts as a platform for a political agenda disconnected from any legitimate legal cause of action, that lawyer abuses her privilege to practice law. When a lawyer personally attacks opposing parties and disrespects the integrity of the judiciary, that lawyer abuses her privilege to practice law. When a lawyer recklessly accuses a judge of violating the Judicial Code of Conduct with no supporting evidence beyond her dissatisfaction with the judge’s rulings, that lawyer abuses her privilege to practice law. When a lawyer abuses her privilege to practice law, that lawyer ceases to advance her cause or the ends of justice.

-snip-

Regrettably, the conduct of counsel Orly Taitz has crossed these lines, and Ms. Taitz must be sanctioned for her misconduct. After a full review of the sanctionable conduct, counsel’s conduct leading up to that conduct, and counsel’s response to the Court’s show cause order, the Court finds that a monetary penalty of $20,000.00 shall be imposed upon counsel Orly Taitz as punishment for her misconduct, as a deterrent to prevent future misconduct, and to protect the integrity of the Court. Payment shall be made to the United States, through the Middle District of Georgia Clerk’s Office, within thirty days of today’s Order. If counsel fails to pay the sanction due, the U.S. Attorney will be authorized to commence collection proceedings.

"I cited these to non-seq and you in the past two weeks on other threads. I am not doing it again."

That's fine, no need to. None of those cites compelled anyone to check a birth certificate.

He is a Kenyan. By birth he inherited Kenyan citizenship from his Dad

That doesn't matter. Kenya could have laws making anyone with more than 1 part in 13 Kenyan heritage(whatever that might have been before the British Colony was established) a Kenyan citizen at birth. Or they could have no laws affecting those born of it's nationals outside the country. What does matter is that BHO Sr was not a US citizen at the time of Jr's birth. That means, that if Jr was born in Hawaii, he's a citizen, but not a natural born one. If born anywhere outside the US, and born before his mother was 19 (she was several months short on the date claimed) he's not a citizen at all, unless later naturalized. But either way, not natural born.

Hey, coincidence, Obama did not show his BC for vetting either.

Bob Campbell's era, he is 60 now? With terrorism anyone near offshore rigs or refineries have verified ID.

5. Proof of Citizenship or USCIS Status: You must provide the applicable documents requested in Question 20. THESE DOCUMENTS BECOME PART OF THE BOARD’S PERMANENT FILE AND WILL NOT BE RETURNED TO YOU. Photocopies of birth certificates will not be accepted.

Incorrect. She has the responsibility for all statewide elections and candidates. The code is very specifis about that. You are confusing the Nov presidential election with the primary elections in each state.

"Your stating that he can be qualified and not prove it, is opening the highest office in the land to fraud."

You are misunderstanding. I'm expressing a point of logic, not policy. Logically, he can BE qualifed and yet not produce any documentation that proves it. You understand that distinction, right?

That's incorrect. See below from Donofrio.

While raising it as an ancillary issue, Plaintiff in this case didn't rely upon questioning Obama‘s birth certificate as the core Constitutional dilemma. Rather, he alleges that even if Obama was born in Hawaii, he was born to a Kenyan national father and is therefore not eligible to be President due to having dual loyalties at birth and split jurisdiction at the time of his birth.

The cause of action first accrued on September 22, 2008, when Secretary Wells certified to county clerks, for ballot preparation, a written "statement", prepared under her seal of office, that was required by statute to contain names of only those candidates who were "by law entitled" to be listed on ballots in New Jersey. The statement is demanded by N.J.S.A. 19:13-22.

Exactly. In the flood of 83 and 86 They told that Arkansas would crest and went to great as to why.

Basically all the damns from Chicago on down were full and they were spilling over.

There was no avoiding it.

Sure enough it flooded like they said as did all the tributaries.

I was on high ground in the Tulsa Mountains so I was safe but helped some friends who live right on the water. One lost here home but we got every piece of furniture, clothing you name it.

Insurance paid for a new home and I helped pour the foundation.

You jump 3 steps too fast. We are only at step one..holding the sec of state accountable. Once that is cleared up, step two would be....

Vice president stepping in? Haven’t got that far yet. Can’t solve it all in one day. Your turn!

Not all birthers, but most. The Supreme Law of the Land, that is the Constitution, and the FRCP. My comment was not intended as a reference to Donofrio. It’s my own opinion based on personal experience with some whack jobs in the birther community. They’d have the defendant be responsible for disproving the plaintiff’s allegations, no matter how absurd and unsubstantiated. That is twisted logic by any definition.

You are not "qualifed" in the sense of the constitution or any other job, unless you have proven it. The status of being qualified is non-sensical and has no application until evidence is presented; as is, how he got in office without doing so.

A liar can say he is 51 years old and be 49. And a 51 year old can be 51, but not be hired without the evidence. And if a foreign power could run a candidate; peopole like you will believe there is no authority to reject the candidacy, because the constitution won't allow you to see their BC.

You are the one taking an illogical and dangerous position. Something no one except the guilty or those who shill for them would do.

Hey Bubba Ho-Tep pay no attendtion to this:

If your parents were citizens, then yes you are

We have only two flavors of citizens in the country: natural born, and naturalized. There is no semi-quasi-almost-kindabutnotquite citizenship held by those who are born here, but one or both of whose parents were not citizens. (With an exception for diplomats, and territory held by the enemy during war.)

This was litigated after the Civil War, when the Democrats objected that former slaves could not be on the ballot a seat in for Congress, because they had been citizens only since the passage of the 14th Amendment, and did not meet the residency requirement. The Supreme Court held that the 14th Amendment made everyone born here ('cept diplomats kids) a citizen at birth.

BS. More twisted birther logic. The SCOTUS is responsible for interpreting the law. Since there is no definition in the law of natural born citizen, the SCOTUS must look outside of the law for an answer. While I believe that there is plenty of information to support my allegation that Obama is not a natural born citizen, others claim to have enough information to support their claim that any child born on U.S. soil is a natural born citizen. I’ve pinged the two whom I am most familiar with that hold the latter opinion.

So my statements are not contradictory in any way. If the SCOTUS interprets the definition of natural born citizen to include Obama, then I will accept it and not only that, I’ll support it from then forward. I respect the law. You don’t, obviously, since you wouldn’t accept such a decision no matter what and would accuse the honorable justices of treason or legislating from the bench or some other such ridiculous birther nonsense.

While I believe that Obama isn’t eligible based on his dual citizenship status at birth, I would accept and support a ruling from the SCOTUS that declared him eligible.

It's unlikely you'll ever get such a ruling. The USSC doesn't appear very interested in hearing it by virtue of the fact that Obama was sworn into office by the highest court in the land despite the public record of his father's foreign citizenship.

IMHO, Leo Donofrio is just as nutty as Orly and his argument even more offensive since he maintains there is a two-tiered definition of Americans born in this country with one class of Americans born here to hold a higher level of citizenship than other Americans born here.

Leo's "two U.S. citizen parents" definition was invented specifically to be a definition that Obama couldn't possibly meet. It is found nowhere in the Constitution or established legal precedent and to think that the courts will suddenly create two separate classes of American citizens, essentially Dred Scott II, in this day and age is pure, ugly fantasy. I'll laugh at Orly. Leo's argument just disgusts me.

You seem to have missed the fact that the marxist quisling has not shown anyone of authority, anything, at anytime that verifies his NBC status that we are aware of.

So yes, suing to get the worthless ball gargler to PROVE he is actually an NBC is appropriate, since it can be amply demonstrated that no one has vetted the POS.

No, they’ll never understand that distinction because even though Obama has been sworn into office as the POTUS they don’t recognize him as such and therefore believe that Congress can’t impeach him because he isn’t the POTUS.

Get it? I know it’s difficult to process such logic.

Just a hunch, but I believe you graduated at the top of your class. Thanks for your informative posts and pointing out the biased that I found hard to believe - that a judge would be so blatantly obvious.
