New York State Commission of Judicial Conduct dismissed complaints against judges Janet DiFiore, Christina Ryba, Michael Coccoma and Karen Peters without an investigation

I wrote earlier on this blog that I filed 3 separate complaints against judges:

1.  Janet DiFiore - Chief Judge of New York State Court of Appeals;

2.  Richard Northrup - Delaware County Judge

and, as a group:

3.  Christina Ryba, Supreme Court, Albany County;
     Karen Peters, Chief Judge, Appellate Division, 3rd Judicial Department;
     Michael Coccoma, Chief Administrative Judge, Upstate New York  

All three complaints were made by e-mail on January 28, 2016.

Here they are:

Against Mr. Northrup - please, note that I requested in this complaint, at the end, to preclude relatives, friends and colleagues of members of the Commission from investigating and prosecuting the complaint (as is the tradition in the Commission).  I do not know whether my request was honored, the letter of dismissal does not show it one way or another.

On the other hand, a perfect solution is to dismiss without ANY investigation - which is what appears to have happened.

Here is the complaint against Janet DiFiore

Here is the complaint against Judges Christina Ryba, Karen Peters and Michael Coccoma:

The letter from the Commission dated March 29, 2016 that I just received claims that my "complaint" (singular) dated January 28, 2016 was dismissed.   

Here is the letter.

Note that all three complaints allege serious judicial misconduct warranting to take judges off their respective benches, if allegations are proven true.

Note that the letter of dismissal mentions "careful consideration", not "investigation" of complaints.

In other words, complaints alleging serious misconduct against high-ranking judges were dismissed without any investigation, whether because of the Commission's policy, lack of funds, outside political influence or inside conflicts of interest, since many members of the Commission are appointees of Governor Cuomo (and, thus, possibly, his friends or connected with his friends, otherwise they wouldn't get the appointment - that is the reality in New York).

As appointees of Cuomo, they wouldn't hurt another appointee of Cuomo, Janet DiFiore, even if she did commit everything described in my complaint against her.

Since the Commission mentions one out of three complaints in one letter, and complaints are identifiable only by dates when I filed them (that's why I am doing it by e-mail, to help identify which dismissed complaint is meant), the Commission may have not even read the complaint, but waited a particular period of time before sending out a form letter of dismissal.

As I stated above, three were three complaints filed by e-mail on that date.

All of complaints were supported by documentary evidence.

All of complaints were about egregious violations of high-ranking judges.

I was never contacted by the Commission with even an attempt to investigate the complaints.

Once again, the complaints were dismissed on March 29, 2016, here is the letter of dismissal.

During the pendency of the complaints,

on March 3, 2016, Karen Peter's court retaliated against me by affirming severe sanctions against me imposed, in retaliation, by Judge James Tormey (twice sued by female employees so far for egregious retaliation) for suing a private attorney for defamation, fraud and fraud upon the court - based on underlying court records in two cases that Judge Tormey did not read (I have sign-out sheets from Delaware County Clerk's office to prove it, and provided it as part of the record to the appellate court), and that the 3rd Department appeared not to have read either;

on March 24, 2016, Janet DiFiore retaliated against me by dismissing ON HER OWN MOTION my constitutional appeal "as of right" in my disciplinary case as if it was discretionary appeal, thus leaving undisturbed the facially invalid disciplinary decision against me where (1) I was punished for not "expressing remorse" before the decision on liability was made; and (2) I was punished for criticizing a judge in motions to recuse, in violation of clearly established U.S. Supreme Court precedent on content-based regulation of speech.

Once again, complaints against these judges were dismissed without ANY investigation.

Nobody contacted me, nobody contacted, upon my information, any other witnesses.

I guess, tossing meritorious complaints against high-ranking judges involved in egregious misconduct is part of the "excellence" plan to "improve" the corrupt New York Unified Court system:

After all, if everything is dismissed, everything is excellent, isn't it?

I wonder whether the New York State Commission experiences political pressure, similar to the same Commission in Georgia where its Chairman recently resigned saying that he is unable to do his job because of political influence by judges' high-ranking friends.

Or, whether NYS Commission is so rotten from inside from its own connections to those same friends.

I didn't see anybody resigning from that Commission lately - or ever.
