Pushed to Shove

Oral Argument Hearing Scheduled

The oral argument portion of the appeal in The State of Washington v. Kaiser, et al, has been scheduled for September 9th, 2010.

Appellants’ Reply Brief

Once we filed our "Opening Brief," the State of Washington had 30 days to file a "Rebuttal Brief," and they did. Assuming it would be the same nonsense as always (with the State desperately trying to twist and distort the facts to make a case where they themselves know none exists), I never bothered to look at it . . . at first. And sure enough, I was right.

Update in Outlook

I've made two posts about the family we rescued in Outlook, WA. If you followed along back then, you'll recall the story of how the wife called the AG's Office and pleaded with them to get out of the way so I could help. You'll also remember how the Assistant Attorney General in charge at that time laughed in her face. It was incredibly cruel and left the wife and I in tears.

Appeal Filed Today

Dear Readers, My attorney, David Corbett, filed our appeal today. He did a wonderful job drafting the brief and I am delighted to have found a really great attorney to help me from here on out. Here's the brief: (1) Opening Brief, (2) Appendix to Brief Fascinating stuff, for sure. In the arena, Joe Kaiser

Appellate Court Weighs In

Dear Rob, For the last few years you've been calling me a scam artist, saying the overage funds we claimed actually belong to former owners who sold us their properties because the law, RCW 84.64.080, says so. You even sued me over it and won, obtaining a judgment that included nearly $650k in restitution to these same owners in repayment of the overage funds we collected.

A Warning to Everyone

Former Senator Ted Stevens

Like my case, the Stevens investigation is a story of government corruption and attorneys providing false evidence. I found this part of particular interest . . .

Letter to AAG John Hillman

Dear Mr. Hillman, I read with great interest your comments in the Yakima Herald regarding the waste of public funds and the overzealous attorneys engaged in a "win at all cost" strategy. Here are your comments . . .
