[600+ lines of Ken's usual BS.]

Ken, I simply don't have the time to deal with your nonsense right now. I
need to come to the aid of someone who knows too well what real abuse of the
judicial system by the authorities is all about, and what kind of injustice it
can result in. Your problems are puny in comparison.

For your information, Cameron Brown is my brother-in-law. Now that name might
perhaps not mean much to you, but it will be familiar to some of our readers
in Southern California.

Also, the way that things have shaped up, it seems that I will be unable to go
to Australia this January as planned.

    To close this one up, I'd like you to actually state your position.
    I already have.
    Then if you have, it won't hurt you to do it again, will it?

    Why should I bother? You didn't listen the first time, why should I think
    tbat you would listen now?
    Are you saying that our courts are too corrupt to be relied upon to do their job
    You tell me.
    Uh, I'm asking *YOU* to tell me what *YOU* are saying! Why should I be expected to read your mind?

    You've had experience with courts, and you've already told us that you think
    they are corrupt. Regardless of what I think, it seems that your mind is
    made up.
    -- applying the law to the facts of a case, in accordance with the principle of stare decisis -- or that a state court of general jurisdiction does not have the legal authority to decide a claim based on federal law and as such, doesn't have the power to order a superior state court to follow federal law?
    Come on, Ken. You've been around the block a few times. You know how things work in the real world.
    Then come right out and say it, Ted! It won't hurt you to say that "Ken will not get what he is entitled to as a matter of law, because the courts are too corrupt to follow the law."

    Based on all that I have seen, I'm not so sure that Ken got a raw deal.
    [It may hurt your pride a bit, though.]

    Ken, I'm not so sure that you were denied justice here. Based on your
    conduct subsequent to being denied a law licence, it just might be that the
    Examiners' Board came to the right decision for the wrong reasons. You've
    played this all wrong. Asking a state court to order the State Supreme Court
    to do one thing or another? Even IF you have a valid claim, you're going to
    see the state judge do a tap dance better than Gene Kelly or Fred Astaire.
    And the whole top legal establishment of the state will have a good laugh at
    your expense. Get your head screwed on, this is NOT the way to do it.
    Try to be real here, and give me a rule of law.
    Which do you want? These two can be mutually exclusive.
    So, you are saying that the *real* rule of law is that there is no rule of law? A yes or no answer will do here, Ted.

    A "yes" or "no" answer will NOT do. My recent experiences tell me that even
    under the best of circumstances, a rough approximation is the best that we
    can hope for. All the major players have staked their positions, and now
    they have to play their hand through, if even for no other reason, just to
    save face.

    Interesting admission, Ted. You've said that you can't do your

    and family in Mel'bun, the cost should be relatively modest. And
    now, you admit that your baggage-handler brother-in-law had to
    bail you out?!?

    It's not like this one would have been too far in the past, as Cam
    was obviously spending his time with a woman other than your sis-
    ter back in the mid-'90s (unless, of course, he was having an affair
    behind your sister's back). And iirc, you were this bigshot telecom

    you in a very big way and quite recently, Cam shouldn't have had
    to have rendered financial assistance.

    I'd like you to actually state your position for the record, as you

    You're ducking the issue again, Ted. A simple yes or no answer will do.

It won't hurt you to say that "Kenwill not get what he is entitled to as a matter of law, because the courtsare too corrupt to follow the law." Based on all that I have seen, I'm not so sure that Ken got a raw deal.

    Stop being so intentionally vague, Ted! Answer the question, or
    admit that you don't *have* an answer which is logically consistent with
    your outcome-based position.

    [It may hurt your pride a bit, though.] Ken, I'm not so sure that you were denied justice here.

    What is "justice?" What I was entitled to as a matter of law, or
    what the Ku Klux Klan was going to dish out? We know "what happened" in
    the Reconstruction South, as opposed to what was supposed to happen, and
    we call that "injustice."

    When you proclaim that I was not denied justice, you have to speak in
    theoretical terms, as opposed to real-world ones. "Niggers" didn't stand
    a chance in the Reconstruction South, but we knew how the cases would be
    decided. This "******" may well be in the same boat, but let's not call
    it "justice."

    Based on your conduct subsequent to being denied a law licence, it just might be that the Examiners' Board came to the right decision for the wrong reasons. You've played this all wrong. Asking a state court to order the State Supreme Court to do one thing or another? Even IF you have a valid claim, you're going to see the state judge do a tap dance better than Gene Kelly or Fred Astaire.

    Because he won't *follow* the law? If the judge decides that I have
    a valid claim, why shouldn't he ensure that I get the relief I am
    entitled to as a matter of law?

    Either a state district court has inherent authority to act on
    federal claims -- thereby acting as a surrogate federal court -- or it
    does not. (And if you had read even a few cases, you would know that it
    does. And yes, when acting in that capacity, it can order ANY state
    body around.)

    Think about it carefully, Ted. The judges in Stalin's law courts
    knew what the law required them to do, but they also realized that their
    mas- ters in the Party would do to them if they followed that law. So,
    they convicted people who would not have otherwise been convicted. Did
    those people get "justice?" A yes or no answer will do here.
    And the whole top legal establishment of the state will have a good laugh at your expense. Get your head screwed on, this is NOT the way to do it.

    "Don't fight City Hall -- because the Bill of Rights isn't worth the
    paper it's printed on." Thank you for your "advice," Komrade Kaldis.

    >Try to be real here, and give me a rule of law.Which do you want? These two can be mutually exclusive.So, you are saying that the *real* rule of law is that there is no rule oflaw?

    Including you. You can't admit that I have been wronged, because you
    would lose face. Now, we can only hope that Cam gets the death sentence
    you implicitly concede he deserves -- for otherwise, someone would "lose
    face," and we can count on the courts to avoid that at any cost.

    Interesting admission, Ted.

    Don't try to make more of it than it is, Ken. As usual, you know squat.
    You've said that you can't do your annual jaunt to Aus this year -- since you have frequent flier miles and family in Mel'bun, the cost should be relatively modest.

    It's not the expense that's holding me back -- that's the least of my
    worries. But how can I run off and enjoy myself when my brother-in-law sits
    in jail charged with a crime he didn't commit -- and capital murder at that?
    I'm not an uncaring boor (presumably) like you.
    And now, you admit that your baggage-handler brother-in-law had to bail you out?!?

    That's not what I mean Ken. But when I've shown up at their door unannounced
    and there's only dinner enough for two, he's insisted that I stay and they'll
    set a place for me. (And truth be told, I'd rather that he didn't -- Stuart
    Anderson's Black Angus is just a little ways down the road, and I'd just as
    soon have a nice steak dinner. But he won't take "no" for an answer.)
    It's not like this one would have been too far in the past, as Cam was obviously spending his time with a woman other than your sister back in the mid-'90s (unless, of course, he was having an affair behind your sister's back).

    This was before my sister met him. You lowlife.
    And iirc, you were this bigshot telecom engineer, travelling the world. Unless things have "gone south" for you in a very big way and quite recently, Cam shouldn't have had to have rendered financial assistance.

    No one said it was financial (except for you, and mendacity seems to be a
    habit of yours). For the record, I have never asked, needed, or accepted
    financial assistance from him.
    Reckon it sucks to be one of the victims of the George W. Bush economy ...

    Telecom has indeed taken a BIG hit in recent years, but I've weathered it
    pretty well. And George W. Bush had nothing to do with it -- it was the
    result of the dot.com bust (a phenomenon of the phony Clinton "boom").

    The Times got it right, which is all that matters But that's beside
    the point. One I think I made.

    Most folks would say I'm a pretty nice guy. But when you try to
    injure me and my reputation as you have over the past few years,
    you shouldn't expect that your malice will not have consequences.
    And, if I were as flat-out vindictive as you, I'm creative enough to
    find ways to make Cam's situation more precarious.

    That having been said, I'd say that Cam is facing the fight of his
    life, and, quite likely, a fight for his life. If I were the prosecuting
    attorney, I would have filed lesser charges in addition to the mur-
    der charge. If they haven't, it means that they really believe that
    it's murder, and they have experts who can testify that she would
    not have landed where she did if she had merely slipped. That's
    enough to get them through the preliminary hearing stage.
    If they can prove that, it's all over for Cam. All this crap about
    his "reputation" goes out the window; they have motive, method,
    and opportunity, and aggravating factors almost certain to bring
    on the death penalty. Remember, we're talking about a 4-year-
    old girl here, and as Father Geoghan learned the hard way, even
    if society doesn't kill him, his fellow inmates probably would.

    Similarly, your claim that Cam is the victim of some sort of
    official abuse of office is almost as silly as your claim that you
    didn't know they were going to use that tyre-iron to commit a
    felony. It don't wash. You've admitted yourself that everyone
    has only been doing their job, and you can't point to anything
    that suggests that they have been violating rules, laws, or even
    ethical canons. I can't find any independently, and will point
    to Hurlbert's disclosures in the Kobe case as a case for com-
    parison.
    It sucks for Cam that he can't afford a P.R. firm like Kobe
    or the Ramsays (they haven't even been charged, but every-
    one seems to believe they did it) -- but in America, you get
    about as much justice as you can afford. It didn't seem to
    bother you when my ox was getting gored, but now that the
    tables are turned, you're whining like a stuck pig. What a--
    er, um, surprise.

    Really, Ted. I don't have a horse in this race, other than to
    show you how it feels. And I gather that you don't like it too
    much. I didn't think you would....

    Joint CUSTODY is something other than visitation.
    The Times got it right, which is all that matters But that's beside the point. One I think I made.

    Yes, the Times, unlike you, got this particular point correct. He asked for
    JOINT CUSTODY after he had had VISITATION RIGHTS for fully a year. You must
    have been busy chasing Bob Larson when they taught this in law school, since
    you seem to be so confused about it. So it's time for a little refresher:

    VISITATION RIGHT - The right granted to a parent or other relative to
    visit a child on a specified basis.

    LEGAL CUSTODY - One of two types of child custody. A parent who has
    legal custody has the right to be involved in all the decision making
    typically involved with being a parent, such as religious upbringing,
    education and medical decisions. Legal custody can be either sole or
    joint.

    PHYSICAL CUSTODY - One of two types of child custody. A child lives
    mosr of the time with the parent who has physical custody of that
    child.

    So apparently what he was asking for was LEGAL CUSTODY.
    Most folks would say I'm a pretty nice guy.

    I would say that you're a pretty nice guy. Certainly an affable chap (at
    least in person).
    But when you try to injure me and my reputation as you have over the past few years,

    Ken, I have NOT tried to "injure" you. You've brought all that upon
    yourself.
    you shouldn't expect that your malice will not have consequences. And, if I were as flat-out vindictive as you,

    I'm anything BUT vindictive. I'm a very easy-going, forgiving person.
    I'm creative enough to find ways to make Cam's situation more precarious.

    Why? Because you know him and know what kind of person he is? (A word to
    the wise [which might very well exclude Ken Smith]: it would be advantageous
    for you to keep your mouth shut here.)
    That having been said, I'd say that Cam is facing the fight of his life, [...]

    This is true. However, I am going to say nothing more about his case here,
    because this is not the proper forum in which to try it.

    As for you, the only criticisms that I have had about you are about how you
    have gone about trying to remedy your problem. You have repeatedly shown
    poor judgement -- as you have about how you have responded to this case. You
    don't really know how this is going to finally shake out. And all the
    information that you have to work with is what was said in the media. Do
    you really think that you can make an informed judgement solely on this,
    especially given that you haven't heard the other side? Would you stake your
    reputation (such as it is) on it? If so, then this suggests that the
    Colorado Board of Law Examiners were correct when they asked you to submit to
    a psychological examination.

    Okay, so you think that this "request" really represents a "demand", and that
    they don't have a right to make such a demand. But who supports you in this
    assessment? Larry Smith? Too bad that Larry Smith has no influence with the
    Colorado Board of Law Examiners, or with Judge Nottingham in Denver Federal
    District Court.

    And you filed a very angry complaint in Denver Federal District Court naming
    virtually everyone in sight as defendants -- so who does that leave for you
    to have on your side to support you? Is it any surprise that you didn't get
    anywhere here? (And don't tell me about the law -- I have heard judges say
    in open court, "I don't care what you think the law says, if you don't like
    my decision, take it up on appeal".) And you didn't fare any better in the
    10th Circuit -- in fact the justices gave you quite a hiding in their
    published finding.

    You were told that the ONLY proper place for your appeal was to the Supreme
    Court of the U.S., but instead you have filed some sort of action in lower
    state court. You mentioned "mandamus" in a previous message, so presumably
    you are asking for a writ of mandamus for the lower court to direct the state
    Supreme Court to do one thing or another. But let's be real here. (I know
    that for you, this must be very hard, but do please try.) What lower state
    court judge in his right mind is going to order the state Supreme Court
    around? Short answer: it ain't gonna happen, bucko.

    Now, you're already a laughingstock here, so please, go seek some serious
    help. And don't try to tell me what kind of man my brother-in-law is -- I
    already know him quite well. He's the sort of guy who not only would, but
    for me already has [figuratively AND literally] given me the shirt off his
    back and food off his plate. You may try to besmirch him here, but in the
    end you will find that you have only (further) besmirched yourself.
