How dare a citizen or soldier ask for proof. The judiciary is totally corrupt like the legislative and executive branch.

Orly´s wierd.

“borders on delusional” Does everything have to be overstated nowadays. If it is delusional, tell us Judge, if not then keep your yapper shut. Seems like teenagers have taken over every aspect of the American life. It’s funny, when I was a teen in the early ‘90’s there seemed to be adults in control. Now it seems as if everyone has arrested development these days.

Can a court imposed fine like this be appealed?

From an AJC article by Jay Bookman on May 29th:

According to Judge Sonia Sotomayor, biography matters. President Obama’s nominee for the Supreme Court believes a person’s gender, ethnic background and upbringing will inevitably affect how he or she interprets the law.

She is absolutely correct.

The Court finds that counsel’s conduct was willful and not merely negligent. It demonstrates bad faith on her part. As an attorney, she is deemed to have known better.

Ouch! Holy Tort Reform, Batman!

Attorney Orly Taitz sanctioned $20,000 by U.S. District Court Judge Clay Land

"..“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,” Land writes. “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..."

I can recall some time ago being excoriated on these threads for recommending that conservatives distance themselves from this woman who was clearly unstable and bent on making everyone associated with her look as ridiculous as she is.

Whatever, like an outbreak of herpes another eruption occurred, I noticed the support for Dr. Orly Taitz to be less and less vehement. Hopefully those of us who believe that the issue should be investigated and properly aired, will not be blackened as "trolls" because we tell the truth about this eccentric woman.

I’ll wait and see how this plays out. It is written like a personal attack and the judge does have a conflicts of interest. Of all the frivolous law suits I have heard of over the years I have never seen a judge take this kind of action. Sometimes it darkest just before the dawn.

[SvenMagnussen]

The Judge ordered the 20k to be paid to the United States and then the United States will pay the 20k to the Judge’s favorite charity.

This will be definitely be overturned on appeal.

I suggest you all read the Court’s order in full

From the judge’s order:
“As a national leader in the so-called “birther movement,”
Plaintiff’s counsel has attempted to use litigation to provide the “legal foundation” for her political agenda. She seeks to use the Court’s power to compel discovery in her efforts to force the President to produce a “birth certificate” that is satisfactory to
herself and her followers.”
