Los Angeles CA The Full Disclosure Network® received a 911 call from prominent Anti-Trust Attorney Richard I Fine who has been confined in the L A County Men's Central Jail, in isolation, since March 4, 2009 following a Superior Court contempt hearing in Department 86. Judge David Yaffe ordered Fine to turn over all of his personal financial records and until he did so would be incarcerated without bail, without at release date and without a scheduled hearing, making the term of his sentence, indefinite.
The contempt sentence imposed by Superior Court Judge David Yaffe followed a request made by Richard Fine, representing him self "in pro per" that Judge Yaffe disqualify himself from hearing the case due to the fact the Judge had received unconstitutional payments from the County of Los Angeles that was party to the case (Marina Strand Colony II Homeowners Association vs County of Los Angeles).
IN PRO PER RIGHTS: In the telephone recorded conversation, Fine describes to Full Disclosure the conditions where he was being held and that he was being denied his Constitutional right to represent himself and even access to paper and pencil, thus preventing him from filing an “IN PRO PER” writ of Habeas Corpus in Federal Court that could possibly free him and provide him an opportunity to fight what he calls "Judicial Corruption".
Details of the contempt hearing and arrest of Richard I. Fine can be found here on this webpage.
A one hour exclusive Full Disclosure® videotaped interview featuring Attorney Fine prior to his incarceration along with government opposition supporting his incarceration and disbarment is to be released to 40 cable systems and on the Internet.

This kind of story scares me, indeed. I having been growing more untrustful of our legal system in recent years, starting with the police. I wonder how high this corruption goes, as well as how wide spread. It doesn't offer us, poor folk, much confidence.

I've faced non stop jaw dropping corruption in Santa Monica and in the Los Angeles Criminal courts. It's a nightmare.

My license to practice law was suspended and I, like Richard, am dealing with corruption of a public official, employed by the Michigan Supreme Court. (He retaliated because I eposed him). See my webstie: Cheryltalks.com

I am absolutely amazed and appalled what is happening to this poor man. Doesn't anyone care? Why the hell is this man still in jail? Why the hell isn't someone doing something to expose these rogue judges? Why the hell isn't there a court in the land that will listen? What the hell happened to "justice"? These are scary times we're living, people!

I lived in El Segundo, Cal. 1968 to 1989.
We created a unique program, Truly Reforming Law Enforcement
The program should reduce the police brutality to a very small fraction of todays numbers.
Google: USA Today "Rise of Police Brutality Dec. 18, 2007

Unbelievable.
But, in light of more recent revelations, now believable.

The California Judiciary is corrupt because it has been bought by big business. While one could look at the writings of George CS Benson about the extensive nature of corruption in American business and government in order to obtain a historical perspective on corruption, the best place to start understanding the corruption of California judiciary is when the right wing GOP decided to take over the Calif Supreme Court in the mid 1980's. Appealing to the blood lust of Californians to execute more death row inmates, the right wing stirred the passions of the voters who changed the complexion of the Calif Supreme Court which immediately set out to eradicate consumer rights and corrupt all the judges.
One means to corrupt the judiciary on a state wide basis was to set up arbitrations in lieu of court trials. Then Chief Justice Lucas authored an opinion, Moncharsh v Heilly Blaze (1992), which required courts to enforce arbitration decisions that were wrong on their face and worked a substantial injustice. Judges who had a clean record of always ruling in favor of insurance companies and big businesses could retire from the bench at full salary and then earn $650.00/hr to make arbitration decisions were wrong on their face and worked a substantial injustice. Judges who were not on the right side to the political spectrum wouldn't be hired as arbitrations. (I've been the meetings were judges are vetoed solely because they did not always rule in favor of big business.) Monchrash is the lynch pin case institutionalizing judicial corruption.
As federal judge John C. Davies explained to me in the 1980's, there are other ways that big business controls the courts. Judge Davies was new to the bench when he certified a class action case I had against an insurance company that was systematically cheating is insureds. About a month later, Judge Davies called us into chambers and explained that he did not know that presiding judge Manny Real had a deal with insurance companies to never allow a class action to be certified. Judge Davies related that unless he de-certified our class action, Real had threatened to make his tenure a living hell. Judge Davies then decertified the case.
Judges in both the federal and the state system are still subject to this same type of illegal coercion and enticement to make pro-business decisions.
Some judges also run a little bribery scam on the side. As was related to me by a litigator at Jones, Day, Pogue etc, certain judges would call senior attorneys at his firm wherever a sensitive case appeared before them, e.g. class actions, Bus Prof 17200 Unfair Competition, and then the judges and senior partner would decide how to handle the case. About the same time, I had this litigator's information confirmed by a lawyer from Gibson, Dunn and Crutcher. One thing which many judges wanted in return for their corrupt rulings was elevator to a higher court.
I had one case with Judge Cooper when she was in superior Court and the insurance company was cutting off the signatures on medical authorizations and affixing them to other authorizations such as social security and tax returns. That way the insurance company was obtaining confidential information which they then sued to blackmail the plaintiffs. When this illegal practice came out during discovery, Judge Cooper threatened to report my client to the IRS unless the entire case against the insurance company was dropped. No matter how clean a person's tax returns may be, no one can withstand a biased IRS audit instutituted by a sitting judge. Judge Cooper is now a district court judge.

Looks like a case for the Federal District Court, filing a Civil Racketeering [RICO]lawsuit, being awarded "Tebble Damages" as the "mandate" of the RICO Statutes. I'd hire Rudy "The G Man" Guiliani and local Counsel for the purposes of Pro Hac Vice. You simply can't legislate an immunity clause as a shield to protect corrupt judges taking public to throw cases. If that were the case, then abolish the appeals courts. The Judge[s] could the affirm their own rulings without worry of review or being overturned. This should head all the way to the US Supreme Court based upon its recent ruling last week in an east coast case pertaining to disqualification/recusal of Judges recieving political contributions. Alot of support for this proposition on behalf of the Petitioner for Writ Of Cert. as many "Friend Of The Court" briefs were filed. Just thought you would like to know. Also the criminal and civil divisions of the US Justice Department and Fox News Cable to get media coverage and necessary public attention. RICO is the magic answer.Trust me, they'll have wet socks after the U.S. Marshall's office seves the formal complaint. I'd also contact the FBI and the Justice Department organized crime "Strike Force" as well as the State's Disiplinary Agency for attorneys and/or judicial conduct board for judges. Pump-up the heat and volume on these judicial pimps & whores. They're a blite on Justice. They spell it Just-Us.

The Demand for Habeas Corpus is a sacred right. As I understand it, anybody can demand the Habeas Corpus, on behalf of Mr. Fine. "I set forth this demand for Habeas Corpus, on behalf of Mr. Richard I. Fine, who is being held without jurisdiction. I demand that the Court direct the Sheriff to bring forth the injured party with a sworn affidavit as to the injury. If this is civil rather than criminal, I demand that this Court direct the Sheriff to bring forth the injured party and the original contract to which Mr. Fine is alleged to be party to and in violation of. I demand that this Court order the release of Mr. Fine if the injured party is not produced, forthwith."
