SANTA ANA, Calif. – On Sept. 8, U.S. District Court Judge David O. Carter ordered a scheduling conference for Oct. 5, 2009, allowing the Obama eligibility case filed by Dr. Orly Taitz, Esq. on behalf Captain Pamela Barnett, Alan Keyes and others to proceed.
Carter wrote, “The responsibility for the progress of litigation in the federal courts falls not only upon attorneys in the action, but upon the court as well. Accordingly, the court issues this order.”
Taitz filed a declaration of Lucas Daniel Smith with an exhibit on Friday.
Smith, a 29-year-old American citizen from Iowa, signed an affidavit, under penalty of perjury, stating he “traveled to Kenya and Mombasa, in particular, with the intent to obtain the original birth certificate of Barack Hussein Obama,” as he was told previously it was on file in the hospital and under seal, due to the fact the Kenyan Prime Minister is Obama’s cousin.
Smith states he visited Coast General Hospital in Mombasa, Kenya on Feb. 19, 2009, accompanied by a citizen of the Democratic Republic of Congo, and said he had to pay a cash “consideration” to a Kenyan military officer on duty to look the other way while he obtained the copy of the birth certificate.
According to Smith, the copy was signed by the hospital administrator and contains the embossed seal. As an exhibit, Smith provided the “true and correct photocopy of the birth certificate obtained.”
Meanwhile, defendants filed a motion to dismiss stating, “Plaintiffs ask this Court to entertain a challenge to the 2008 election of President Barack Obama by requiring the President to disprove, in this Court, their innuendo alleging that he is not a ‘natural born citizen’ within the meaning of the United States Constitution. Plaintiffs cannot use this Court to investigate and decide the President’s fitness for office or their related claims …
“Plaintiffs also seek to litigate in this court a variety of vaguely-defined claims purportedly related to a hodgepodge of constitutional provisions, civil and criminal statutes, and the Freedom of Information Act. These claims are equally flawed ...”
Jeff Schwilk, founder, San Diego Minutemen, attended the Sept. 8 hearing and reported back, “Judge David Carter refused to hear Obama's request for dismissal today, instead setting a hearing date for Oct. 5. He indicated there was almost no chance that this case would be dismissed. Assuming Judge Carter denies Obama's motion for dismissal, he will likely then order expedited discovery which will force Obama to release his birth certificate in a timely manner.
According to Schwilk, Carter, a former U.S. Marine, repeated several times that this case is very serious and must be resolved quickly so that the troops know their Commander in Chief is eligible to hold that position and issue lawful orders to our military in this time of war.
“Plaintiffs’ Attorney Dr. Orly Taitz did a great job, winning some huge victories today,” said Schwilk, adding, “She was fearless!”
Carter requested all counsel familiarize themselves with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Local Rules of the Central District of California in order “to secure the just, speedy and inexpensive determination of every action.”
Carter admonished counsel that a continuance of a scheduling conference is rarely granted and a continuance will only be granted only for good cause.

Anyone who cares about their country would be very concerned that a POTUS had hidden every scrap of information of his life that he possibly could.
So the hearing to decide on the dismissal is to be held at a later date, so the motion to dismiss brought by Obama’s attorneys has not yet been ruled upon, correct?
Don't make me post your name on the "Renege List" LOL
You KNOW who you are...come out...come out whereever you are...
I like my steak “Medium Rare!” BIG SMILE
Ping
If the case goes forward, I’m betting that Obama will simply ignore the court’s order to produce the birth certificate.
YEA!
SOUNDS good. Will see how far it goes.
Bless em Lord.
Maybe this is what Glenn Becks’ “big surprise” is....
_______________________________
I missed that. When is Glenn going to announce it?
We must all pray for Glenn’s safety...and for that of his family and staff.
Birther bump.
Go, Orly!
They can’t afford the steak so they are eating crow.
Judge Carter stated it would darn near take an act of GOD to dismiss this case.
That ain’t exactly what he said, but that’s exactly what he meant. The Motion to Dismiss will be heard on October 5.
Step by step
Would Obama have any say in the matter? Wouldn't the judge order Hawaii, the passport agency, and schools to had over the documents?
But...Could Obama appeal?
What are their screen names?
Glenn is going to have some HUGE announcement tomorrow...er...today, Septemeber 10. he hasn’t said what it is, only that no one will be talking about healthcare after whatever it is.
I had to show mine to get my job...time for him to show his!!
