With the two new judges on the New York State Court of Appeals with such "stellar" credentials as Leslie Stein's and Eugene Fahey's people of the State of New York will now be royally screwed
Oh, the law of coincidences.
In October of 2014 Governor Cuomo recommended to the NYS Court of Appeals Judge Leslie Stein of the Appellate Division 3rd Judicial Department, under circumstances presenting an appearance of corruption, see here, here, here, here, here, here, here and here.
Now Governor Cuomo nominated to the NYS Court of Appeals judge Eugene Fahey of the Appellate Division 4th Department who (1) denies constitutional motions without arguments; (2) imposes, without notice or opportunity to be heard, anti-filing injunctions on litigants who ask for reasoned court decisions; and (3) refuses to open court proceedings pertaining to litigants' fundamental constitutional rights, even when litigants waive their right to privacy, see here and here.
Two judges who, coincidentally or not, engaged in misconduct in my appellate cases and are trying hard to have me disbarred without looking at the record or law in front of them, for public criticism of rampant judicial misconduct in New York State court system in general, and in their courts in particular. Two judges who were rewarded, immediately after they ruled against me, with the highest judgships in the State of New York. A coincidence? It remains to be seen...
Eugene Fahey called the nomination "humbling". It would be more humbling for me if Eugene Fahey is taken off the bench for his incompetence and misconduct. Such arrogance in dealing with constitutional arguments and civil rights as Judge Fahey demonstrated in my case comes only with years of practice, so there must be many more cases that Judge Fahey decided in a similar fashion, with complete and total disregard of the record and the law, including constitutional law, with the only eye at political benefits that his decision will bring him in favoring a politically connected party or the government. It paid off, as we all now see.
Please, note that New York State Court of Appeals has an extremely restricted jurisdiction, and the only "as of right" appeals that New York state litigants can file there are appeals for violations of constitutional rights.
This particular judge, who rejected constitutional arguments at the previous level without an explanation and punished a litigant for as much as asking for a reasoned explanation with an anti-filing injunction is, certainly, a perfect choice for the job to deflect those pesky litigants from EVER being able to get through the judicial system and to have their constitutional arguments heard anywhere in New York courts.
People of the State of New York!
Remember my prediction. If these two judges are appointed to the NYS Court of Appeals, you and your civil rights will be truly, completely and royally screwed.
