Yup,we've heard that too.And let me assure my fellow Freepers that having seen "Coupe Deval" up close and personal here in the Gay State I can assure you that after 6 months of US Attorney Corporal Deval "Coupe Deval" Patrick we'll be longing for the days of his immediate predecessor.
One quick example of what he's about...in a press conference a few days after the Boston jihadi bombers were identified he referred to them several times as "those fellows".
It was a "Top Secret" notification. They weren't allowed to tell Fox about it.
I think this same Judge was involved with the Clinton emails from long ago. Orders to provide and then everything disappeared.
I believe the situation at the time was to show various email accounts being used to avoid official notice. It has now come full circle with BO’s admin.
Royce Lamberth knows the DOJ is full of crooks. See http://emptywheel.firedoglake.com/2010/03/30/royce-lamberth-lets-make-a-deal/
At http://articles.washingtonpost.com/2013-05-22/world/39440575_1_federal-court-documents-search-and-arrest-warrants it’s reported that he blames his staff for the warrants not being reported - 3 warrants in 2010 involving Rosen.
At http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/newsdesk/2013/05/how-justice-fought-to-keep-rosens-warrant-secret.html it says that 2 judges ruled that Rosen had to be notified, and then Machen appealed to Royce Lamberth, who overturned the other 2 judges in September of 2010.
On July 25, 2011, Lamberth blasted Orly Taitz for claiming that Lamberth’s staff was sabotaging her filings. See http://www.abajournal.com/news/article/scolded_by_another_federal_judge_birther_attorney_orly_taitz_blames_court/ . He called her claims “hysterical” and accusatory and used the clerical errors - that Taitz said were inserted by Lamberth’s own clerks - as a reason to throw out her case. It’s bitter irony that he is now very publicly having to claim the same thing about his own clerks (although he is claiming it is accident or incompetence rather than deliberate sabotage... (according to link below, the error included filing Lamberth’s order under a number that doesn’t fit any PACER search parameter and failing to link to the order as being related to any of the related cases). Lamberth had ruled that Rosen didn’t have to be notified of the warrant, but it seems that Lamberth’s clerks made sure that even after it was unsealed the warrant would not show up in a search regarding any of the players in the Rosen/Jin-Woo Kim case. Main Justice only stumbled across it using the search term “Jonathan Malis” (Assistant US Attorney in Washington DC) while investigating a different issue.
Nov 7, 2011 the affidavit was ordered unsealed (at http://www.mainjustice.com/2013/05/21/james-rosen-criminal-leak-investigation-was-disclosed-18-months-ago-hidden-in-court-records/ but it doesn’t say who ordered it unsealed. Maybe the judge who originally approved the warrant under seal? Magistrate Judge Alan Kay? Maybe that was the condition for approval - that it be unsealed at that time? I don’t know how this stuff works).
The same kind of “filing error” was made in Justia regarding the Minor v Happersett case (deleting cross-references so people searching for the related cases would not be able to find it) but this appears to be the same kind of thing done with the GOVERNMENTAL court listings (PACER).
I don’t have time to research this now (probably took more time than I should have, just trying to understand it to the point I do now) but it seems to me that Lamberth owes Orly Taitz an apology - and somebody needs to be finding out who these clerks in Lamberth’s office are, who make mistakes that always seem to benefit Obama and his regime... (I wonder if they are related to the clerks who screwed up the appeal of Malihi’s decision in GA, so that the appeal was decided before the clerks had allowed a case to even be FILED... And of course we all remember Donofrio’s troubles with SCOTUS stay clerk, Bickel -I can’t remember his first name)
Maybe somebody can do some research on this. It was 4 months after Lamberth ridiculed Taitz (for what she said was his own clerks’ sabotage) that Lamberth’s clerks filed Holder’s affidavit in such a way that it could not be located through PACER.
Also - does somebody know if PACER includes state court records? Or does it only include federal cases? A letter I got from them says “The login and password listed above allow read-only access to all courts running nationally supported PACER products including CM/ECF.” I know they’ve got states listed in their search parameters; I wonder if the state courts use the products referenced above so that those records are searchable through PACER.
Anybody know if tax liens (in a state which is listed as searchable in PACER) should be viewable through PACER?
Interesting thing about PACER; they just changed the account security so that it requires birthdate.
Watch..Holder will say they put it in the mail..and blame the USPS..
Thanks for the links. I did some checking of my own before I saw your links but I’ll check your links for more info when I have time. This is a ping to my posting of what I found. I think there’s definitely fodder for more research on this one...
Well it’s come to the point where our Federal judges and their offices engage in near criminal activities. And the judges use their staffs to conduct the activity (what a concept—plausible deniability for federal judges). When they are caught they claim staff ineptness (funny, those staffers never seem to be fired but end up being promoted and given pay raises) and issue a phony “apology”.
Royce Lambert is corrupt and takes extralegal actions to promote and protect the progressives’ agenda.
Seems like maybe something happened to Lamberth sometime between March 2010 (when Lamberth was going to insist that both DOJ and CIA wrong-doing be reported to Congress) and Nov 2010 (when Lamberth overruled 2 other judges and allowed the warrant to be kept hidden from Rosen).
April 14, 2010 was when Lamberth dismissed Orly Taitz’ petition for Quo Warranto, saying “”The Court is not willing to go tilting at windmills with her.”. This was after Taitz was advised by Judge David Carter - after he abruptly did a 180 on her case before him shortly after hiring a clerk from the same law firm that was defending Obama at the time - that the proper venue for her issues was Quo Warranto. And then Lamberth blew it off by mocking the whole idea of a “conspiracy”.
In 2011 Lamberth dismissed Taitz’ FOIA appeal for a redacted application for the SS# that Obama is using. In August and October of 2011 Lamberth ruled against Orly in 2 other cases, saying “”As her numerous filings with the Court demonstrate, plaintiff will stop at nothing to get to the bottom of this alleged conspiracy. Unfortunately for plaintiff, today is not her lucky day.” and noted her “Sisyphean quest”. (See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orly_Taitz )
Probably not a lot of love lost there, because Taitz accused Lamberth of having an ex parte meeting with Eric Holder, IIRC. But his decisions in 2011 seem to be unprofessional - more like the language we expect from the threatened media.
Somebody mentioned Lamberth as covering for Bill Clinton earlier. I’m wondering if the dems know some good dirt on him, that gets brought up at critical times...
Oops. Correction: It was not Lamberth that Taitz accused of meeting with Eric Holer; it was Judge Land. So there is no personal reason for Lamberth to be hostile to Taitz, that I am aware of.
My feelings of the last 5 years of the Muslim Community Organizer.
But, God will not be mocked - as a man sows, so shall he reap. That includes Barry.
Un-named sources means bs on the legitimacy of the story. Just causing confusion. Therefore without proof that means it wasnt sent
Rosen’s emails were seized, with a judge’s approval, as part of the prosecution of Kim. In addition to a delay unsealing the documents for warrants, there was also a delay unsealing chief judge of the U.S. District Court in Washington Royce Lamberth’s 2010 order that the government wasn’t required to notify Rosen that his emails had been the subject of a warrant. Although that order was posted on the court’s website, it was not available on the public docket until now.
Lamberth apologized for these delays Wednesday this week saying a ”series of administrative errors by the court’s staff” caused them.
The documents reveal that two judges had said the Justice Department was required to notify Rosen of the warrants, the New Yorker reported. But U.S. Attorney Ronald C. Machen, Jr., requested in 2010 that the court exercise its power to keep sealed the warrants and related documents in this case as there “exists an extraordinary situation and compelling government interest, which justify such a sealing.”
Machen also requested the court order Google not to notify Rosen of the warrant either.
Lambert overturned the two judges who declared the Rosen was to be notified of the warrants, granting Machen’s request that the documents remain sealed.
Congress NEEDS to call in Machen and under oath.
Agreed.
Maybe they were only notified of the emails and not the phone taps? Who knows with these jokers. Rosen’s parents should have filed a law suit the minute ths came out because you know they weren’t notified. “Heil, Hitler” and “hey, Big Brother” all rolled up into one.
Just like the Birth Certificate that is supposed to be there but isn’t. Give them a few days to call in the Czar of Forgeries and they’ll have a couple of big shot FOX signatures complete with smilie faces to wave in front of the tv cameras.
There ya go.
Oh, that Lamberth. Amazing they'd use him. Just another Obama happy coinky-dink cover up.
I would like to see them sue the Democrat party and their leadership, also.
What was done to them and others for politics is criminal.
Recall that it was the same Holder who was one of the key figures in the Clinton DOJ masterminding the wee hours snatch of Elian Gonzalez for a trip back to Cuba.
