Confidentiality provisions of New York Judiciary Law 90(10) - a shield for prosecuted attorneys or a sword for disciplinary prosecutors

To many people it is quite straight-forward that in any disciplinary proceedings involving occupational licensing secrecy protects the prosecuted licensee.

The reason for privacy laws is that in the event the disciplinary proceeding turns out in the licensee's favor, the licensee's business and reputation can by that time suffer irreparable harm simply because of public exposure of proceedings.

So.

Privacy and confidentiality laws in disciplinary proceedings against occupational licensees are to protect the licensees.

Right?

I have a law license.  Practicing law is my occupation.  I am an occupational licensee.

The court tells me that I may not waive my own privacy without my protection.

The disciplinary prosecutor wants to have the court put me in jail because I allegedly waived my privacy in those proceedings without the court's protection.

We will put you in jail to protect your own privacy, damn you....

Thank you, the State of New York.  Your concern about my privacy is beyond endearing.

You must call it perfume, even if you are choking on the stink

Once one dons a black robe, one loses his or her brain, knowledge, competence, morality and integrity (if they had it in the first place).  

And one can do wonders.  

And one does.  

Wonderful wonders. 

Crazy wonders.  

And one has the power to hide one's wonderful wonders, like a dog who pooped on the carpet. 

Only, unlike the dog who pooped and hid his poop, one also gets a right to punish anybody who finds his poop and shows it to others.

One gets to make everybody to acknowledge that one's poop is not poop at all, but it is perfume that smells like roses.

And ones has the power to put in jail those who insist that poop is poop and it stinks.

And how do those wonders happen?

Here is the scenario.

The nominee for the New York State Court of Appeals Judge Eugene Fahey sealed the following records - and sealed the very order sealing them.  Judge Fahey and his co-judges sealed:

• A case decided by the United Nations court for violation of the International Convention of Political and Human rights - Gryb v. Belarus;
• A case decided by the European Court of Human rights - Kabanov v. Russia
• List of countries - members of European Union
• Trial rules of New York Surrogate's Court
• Several court orders from several cases on file with Delaware County Supreme Court are now sealed
• A court order and a transcript on file in Delaware County Surrogate's Court are now sealed
• A court order on file in Otsego County Surrogate's court and Attorney General's office are now sealed
• A court order from the New York County Supreme court is now sealed
• Multiple orders and records on file with the NYS Appellate Division Third Judicial Department
• Multiple records filed with federal courts and accessible on Pacer.gov
• Multiple articles from Albany Times Union (which are still on the Internet), all about public corruption, are now sealed
• Multiple articles from New York Times and other news sources, all about public corruption, are now sealed
• My own attorney registration is now sealed
• Biography of judge Carl F. Becker on the website of NY Court administration is now sealed for me (while remaining in public access on the Internet to the whole wide world)
• Biographies and attorney registration information of judges of NYS Appellate Division Third Judicial Department are sealed 
• Information web pages of Onondaga County Family and Supreme Courts are now sealed
• A deed where Judge Becker sold his law office to the local prosecutor John Hubbard is now sealed
• The list of members of the New York State Commission for Judicial Conduct is sealed
• A decision of NYS Commission of Judicial Conduct removing from the bench a judge for fixing a traffic ticket for another judge's wife is sealed
• Printouts from the website of a law firm where that former and disgraced judge was embraced (in a law firm employing close relatives of a state and a federal judge) are now sealed.

The list of this insanity goes on and on and on (see the table I of the "sealed" exhibits I started to put together in my previous post).

It looks like a prank.

A sane judge cannot do that.

Yet, this is not a prank.

This is damn serious.

This is my life, my livelihood and my liberty, for God's sake!

In fact the order sealing all of the above, is in and of itself also sealed and is secret.

Yesterday I received by regular mail criminal charges for violating THAT order, which ordered me not to talk about public records available to the entire world on the Internet.  

In those criminal charges, prosecutor Mary Gasparini had the insanity and audacity to claim that THAT crazy order is actually "a lawful mandate of the court" - and to ask the court to put me in jail for violating it.

Which will mean, naturally, loss of business, clients, health, dignity.  For allegedly breaking a crazy and crazily unlawful order.

For allegedly violating the gag order not to talk about RAMPANT CORRUPTION OF PUBLIC OFFICIALS as reflected in multiple PUBLIC documents.

And all of that is done in proceedings that are allegedly held in the name of protecting the public from me, a civil rights attorney who BEGGED, ASKED, DEMANDED the court - all in vain - to let THAT SAME PUBLIC simply be present at the hearing and see how and for what reasons that same public is allegedly being protected from me.

If the public does not have a right to know how and why the government is protecting the public from me - isn't such a proceeding unlawful?

A Star Chamber?  Yes? No?

Please, read the above list of "sealed" documents.  

Please, read my previous post with the table of documents sealed by the judges of the 4th Department.

If you think it is only about me, think again.

This is a pattern.

This is a policy.

This is how judges "do their business".

They consider it their right to NOT read the record before they decide cases.  Had they read the record they wouldn't have been able to seal what they sealed - because it is CRAZY.

Does a judge exist in the New York State judiciary to end this mess, who would have a shred of integrity and competence left and who would acknoweldge the insanity of what is going on in my disciplinary case, which, while continuing to be my personal tragedy, becomes more and more an accusation against the corrupt judiciary in the State of New York and proof of its corruption.

People of the state of New York!  

THINK about it.

If judges SEALED THAT (see list above and the table in my previous post), that means only that they DO NOT READ THE RECORD before MAKING DECISIONS ON PEOPLE'S LIVES!  In your lives.

They will and do decide your custody of children without thinking or reading the record.  

They will and do make decisions about your own and your loved one's liberty without reading the record.

They will take away your property without reading the record.

Did you agree to such actions by these judges when you elected them?

It's enough.

We need laws in the State of New York making the judiciary truly accountable to the people, which would prevent people in black robes from turning court proceedings into a circus.

The price Judge Eugene Fahey paid for his nomination to the New York State Court of Appeals

I wrote on this blog that the disciplinary prosecutor out of the Appellate Division 4th Department Mary Gasparini filed a "motion" for CRIMINAL contempt of court within my CIVIL disciplinary action for allegedly revealing records sealed by order of the New York State Appellate Division 4th Judicial Department.

Even though the order was sealed - until Mary Gasparini filed criminal charges against me and made that order an exhibit in those charges - now it is a matter of public record as a matter of law, because, ladies and gentlemen, one thing we definitely do not have in New York is secret criminal proceedings.

So, here is the order.

Note the names of judges.  One of them, Eugene Fahey, was recently nominated by Governor Cuomo to the highest court of this state, the New York State Court of Appeals.

Below please see the table of exhibits from two motions - my cross-motion to dismiss my disciplinary proceedings, raising constitutional questions, denied without reasoning or explanation by the 4th Department, including Judge Fahey, and the motion to vacate, renew and reargue that denial without reasoning, a motion made as of right.

Please, note the following issues in the December 17, 2014 order, unsealed thanks to Ms. Gasparini's unlawful efforts to start criminal proceedings against me within a civil action and to put me into the Monroe County jail in retaliation for pointing out Ms. Gasparini stipudity, incompetence and moral degradation:

(1) the order once again denies my motion without a reasoning - a good answer to a motion to actually give a reasoned decision for the denial of the previous motion, with over 100 exhibits;

(2) the order seals itself, and the motions and papers upon which it was made, based exclusively on Judiciary Law 90(10), a confidentiality statute enacted exclusively to protect the privacy of attorneys who are subject of the disciplinary proceedings, and nothing and nobody else - since the same records are immediately unsealed once an attorney is publicly disciplined;

(3) the order imposes and anti-filing injunction upon me, without a notice, an opportunity to be heard on that issue of access to court, and, once again, without any explanation.

So - a secret proceeding where the law does not apply and the court does not owe you any explanation as to why it is denying you relief guaranteed by the U.S. and State Constitution.  There is a definition for such a court.  A Star Chamber.

This particular Star Chamber, though, has a judge who is heading towards the highest court in this state.

Below is the table of only those exhibits from my cross-motion and motion to vacate, renew and reargue (which remain sealed) that are STILL IN PUBLIC ACCESS.

Think about the rage, stupidity, incompetence and moral degradation of judges - who rule your lives, ladies and gentlemen of the State of New York - who purported to "seal" public records from federal courts, from other state courts in pending and closed proceedings, information from the court's own website, information from other courts' websites, attorney advertisements on attorneys' own webpages, stories published by various journalists and sources on the Internet.

It is apparent that a SANE individual, moreover, a judge with any scintilla of competence and integrity, will not be able to say that he or she is SEALING a document which is IN OPEN ACCESS and remains in open access, and to do that without notifying custodians of the now sealed open-access document. 

Such an INSANE order can mean only one thing - the Appellate Division 4th Department, entrusted to make a decision about my reputation and livelihood, DID NOT READ my cross-motion and exhibits because - well - there were simply too many of them, and judges did not have time for this silliness, to review somebody's arguments protecting a livelihood of a civil rights attorney, a criminal defense attorney and a mother of a minor child.

If the court (Judge Eugene Fahey included) did not read my motions and exhibits which is obvious from the sheer STIPUDITY of the December 17, 2014 decision sealing documents that continue to be in open access in various places all over the web and in different state and federal courts, and the 4th Department definitely has no authority to seal documents within the Appellate Division 3rd Department or federal courts - but WHO CARES, right?

Since it can readily be established that the 4th Department panel of judges including the nominee to the New York State Court of Appeals Eugene Fahey did not read my motions and exhibits, what is the basis of their decision denying my motion?   What is the basis of their decision imposing upon me an anti-filing injunction?  My blog criticizing judicial misconduct?

Think about it: how much should a judge

• drink;
• snort;
• forget his oath of office;
• forget every law in the book;
• be lazy and not read the motion he is deciding;
• be stupid;
• be crazy;
• be bribed;
• hope for a career advancement as a quid pro quo from a person with power;
• all of the above;
• any combination above;

in order to seal OPEN records that are still available - and majority of the "sealed" records were about corruption of the government in New York the following (see the table below up to Exhibit 65, I will keep working on it - I have 112 exhibits to analyze, it's a lot of work, so, please, stay tuned and bear with me):
