FELLOW AMERICANS, WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Dear Fellow (Fed-Up) American,
Below is a 28 U.S.C. § 372(c)(1) Complaint for Judicial Misconduct against federal district court judge Robert J. Cindrich.
28 U.S.C. § 372(c)(1) permits any person (there is no standing requirement) to complain that a federal judge is unable to discharge all the duties of office by reason of mental or physical disability. See In re Complaints of Judicial Misconduct, 9 F. 3d 1562, 1567 (U.S. Jud. Conf. 1993).
You don’t have to have "standing" nor must you pay a fee—just mail the requisite number of copies (read the instructions carefully) to the address indicated. These complaints are recorded by the Administrative Office of the United States Courts, an agency monitored by Congress.
Each complaint is supposed to be given a docket number and supposed to become a permanent part of the judge’s personnel file. What usually happens, after the first few complaints are filed, is that the court clerk returns the other, identical complaints "unfiled" at the order of the Chief Judge of the Circuit, though such an action is a felony, removal of records, 18 U.S.C. § 2071.
If you don’t have the time, energy, or patience to fill out the form and copy five of them, just send a single copy to your Congressman and ask him to look into the matter.
Every federal judge in the United States goes to bed at night dreaming of singing with the Supremes in the Imperial City. No federal judge has a prayer of being nominated or appointed to the U. S. Supreme Court if he or she has a dossier containing hundreds of judicial misconduct complaints.
Ask five of your friends to do exactly what we’re doing, then ask each of those five to do the same thing in turn. In five levels we will have turned forty complaints into twenty-five thousand (25,000).
Congress will pay attention when they get hit with enough of these.
Congress never got more than 304 of these judicial misconduct complaints prior to 1997. The Chief Judge of the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, Joseph Hatchett, resigned after receiving 5,200 of these. This is known as the “mosquito bite theory” of judicial discipline. One bite is an annoyance, hundreds or thousands can be deadly.
Do not modify this progression by asking other people to do anything illegal, such as making threats, etc.

I don't disagree with anything you wrote. Keep in mind that the prisoners are guarding the cellblock and that all the guards have fled the area. Good luck getting the inmates (er, I mean congress) to act honestly or rationally. What form of attention they pay may be a worse "remedy". At least that is what their past-performance/track-record indicates.
