Judge Land Fines Orly Taitz $20K, File Copy of Order with State Bar of CA
United States District Court (Georgia) ^ | 10/13/2009 | Judge Clay Land

Posted on 10/13/2009 7:45:31 AM PDT by BuckeyeTexan

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. 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.

-snip-

Regrettably, the conduct of counsel Orly Taitz has crossed these lines, and Ms. Taitz must be sanctioned for her misconduct. After a full review of the sanctionable conduct, counsel’s conduct leading up to that conduct, and counsel’s response to the Court’s show cause order, the Court finds that a monetary penalty of $20,000.00 shall be imposed upon counsel Orly Taitz as punishment for her misconduct, as a deterrent to prevent future misconduct, and to protect the integrity of the Court. Payment shall be made to the United States, through the Middle District of Georgia Clerk’s Office, within thirty days of today’s Order. If counsel fails to pay the sanction due, the U.S. Attorney will be authorized to commence collection proceedings.

Not until the judge displayed the same belligerence towards her.

Maybe not, but in Virginia the new standard is a true copy of a short form BC with the raised seal(No Photocopies). Good luck getting a driver’s license or passport without one. They have really locked things down here after 9/11.

Yes, well we'll see where that gets her.

That could be a problem for her, if she doesn’t pay that fine, she is going to get 30 days in jail for Contempt.

He was also quite displeased at her specuation that that he had a financial interest in the outcome because he owned stock in Comcast and Microsoft, and she claimed the profits of those companies would suffer if Obama was removed.

There hasn't been any proof offered that a constitutional violation has occured.

That's why we are working on this. We already know he was not vetted. We are after the proof, one way or another.

The constitution doesn't require production of a birth certificate.

Did they even have "birth certificates" back in the time of our founding? Mostly not. But today we do, so let's see it.

The constitutional provisions regarding election of a president have been followed.

Except for the part of requiring NBC status, it went off without a hitch (other than ACORN fraud)

"I asked because you wrote it was too late for vetting."

Right. So how could "the vetting process shows him or her ineligible?"

Whatever the fine, it’s obviously worth it to her.

'While I can find many appeals of Rule 11 decisions through a Google search (including Phil Berg's appeal in 3rd District, which the Appellate Court ruled on earlier this year), I haven't yet found a case specifically addressing when Rule 11 Sanctions may be appealed. However, the very fact that there are so many - decided after Cunningham was issued, leads me to believe that an appeal is permissible in this situation. "

Yep, you're right.

So be it. Once Obama’s records are finally pried open, she will be a hero. Her book contract will pay more than her pro-bono work on these lawsuits.

NS uses the Constitution like toilet paper.

That would be you. Your contempt for the Constitution is as complete as your ignorance of it is.

That, is a lie. It’s a LIE. You can say you don’t believe Holder was there, the rest is a LIE. He had from 5 PM PST to 3PM PST the following day.

I don't need to; I'm personally satisfied with the evidence I have.

LOL!! And you claim to be a lawyer? Now I'm understanding better why lawyer jokes are so popular.
