Posted on Reno's myspace blog yesterday.

I just received a letter from my son, Cirino (RENO) Gonzalez.
He reports being placed in Administrative Detention.
His words: "Think of it as the hole but worst ... SHU..."
He is allowed only one telephone call per month and mentioned wondering if anyone has received any of several letters he has written/sent.
Until further notice, Please, write to my son at the corrected address below:

Cirino Gonzalez 76342-179
Metropolitan Detention Center
P.O. Box 329002
Brooklyn, NY 11232

STAND FOR FREEDOM

Slapped silly at the Dover Jail:

Three Stooges Act committed at Strafford County Jail, by:

"Eisenberg Says Dodds Slapped Him In Jail; Officials Investigating."

http://www.wmur.com/news/17990906/detail.html#- of this Friday incident.

that I just saw on WMTW TV Channel 8, 11:00 p.m. news with the Ch. 9 microphone in the picture:

Eisenberg of holding Clinton's office hostage v.s. Dodd's faking in his run for Congress.

Never a dull moment there, this Capt. Joseph DiGregorio, to investigate from the Sheriff's Office on Monday, him the one I told of these illegal trips to Maine against 18USC3232 and who said in effect: I don't give a shit, I'm looking for to get my name into "The National Enquirer"!  :o

Danny's still there as of my 3:30 p.m. call to a possible visit today at 5:00 p.m. that I could have made to get some inside scoop, preferring to do a number on some officials in Concord on Monday and then see both the Commissioners and Danny on Thursday.

Cumberland County ...................................... Superior Court
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -  Docket #2008-cv-00592

...................  APPEAL TO MAINE SUPREME COURT ....................
....



Update: I did just call the Maine Supreme Court at 207: 822-4146 http://www.courts.state.me.us/maine_courts/supreme/index.shtml in Portland, Maine (the ONLY state to have its Supremes in a building other than at the capitol), and spoke with the Clerk, Matthew Pollack, who said that my case #2008-cv-00592 entered on Nov. 3rd from my October 21st filing, should have already been sent up there, the entire file within two (2) weeks of Tuesday, October 2st, and so by Election Day, November 4th but wasn't done as the usual time for which to have been done, and so me asking the Clerk if he could pull it up there, and he said no, that I'd have to call the Cumberland County Superior Court at 207: 822-4113 main # extension #____ to Civil to have them PUSH it up there, so me going to call them to please do that right now! and did add in verbally to the Clerk of this 40 USC 255 of there maybe being no acceptance paper to the state from the Feds too, since there has been no Revised Statutes of the State of Maine Chapter 1, Section 2 "const. grant" in the form of an Amendment to the Maine Const. from 1-8-17 U.S. Const., re: pages 152-153 of Larry Becraft's http://www.constitution.org/juris/fjur/1fj-ba.htm website. My Brief with that exact case of where the state can question the legality of the Feds unlawfully and illegally holding an individual against the law! and for my Art. 19 "complete" justice in a "hear"ing if the judge can't understand or is corrupt to say that there is no issue of fact or law!

Yours truly, - Joe

Modification: not -4113, according to Darsey but -4109 to Diane, who said that they have 21 days to get it "down"stairs to the Supremes, and that ended last Tuesday, Veteran's Day, saying: sorry, that it will not get down there today, but on tomorrow or Wednesday, November 19th at the latest.

Here's a re-type of my e-mail letter of exactly 1:59 PM earlier this afternoon, Friday, February 1st, 2008.

"From: Joseph S. Haas ( JosephSHaas at hotmail dot com ) ...
To: mailbox at sununu dot senate dot gov
Cc: ... heather dot macneill at mail dot house dot gov
...
Re: Oversight Hearing(s) reviews please for:
(1) George Singal, Federal Court Judge in Portland, Maine
(2) Tom Colantuono, U.S. Attorney, Concord, N.H.
(3) Stephen Monier, Y.S. Marshal,        "         "
who were appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate.

...the judge #(1) above noted,... having been assigned this duty by McAuliffe, refuses to hold the proceedings in the district of jurisdiction by Title __ Section 3232, ...

cc:... C. Rep. Carol Shea-Porter http://shea-porter.house.gov/ attention: heather.macneill at mail.house.gov ....



Here's the letter that started this 18 USC 3232, and my subsequent call to the subcommittee of the House Judiciary for where I sent my written complaint against Jeffrey R. Howard, our former N.H. A.G./ now 1st Circuit judge getting $xxx,xxx from Congress legally, but spending it illegally!  The woman at the sub-committee telling me on the telephone of to get at least one of my Senators and Reps to endorse this complaint.

Now I see WHY Shea-Porter for one REFUSES to endorse, since her husband works for the Treasury Department, but so what?  You'd think that he would want to make sure that the money sent from the Legislative to the Judicial Branch is spent legally, but my guess is that he does NOT care about an oversight, and neither does Carol, especially since these Treasury Agents are NOT concerned with the money going OUT of the gov't coffers, but only that money flowing INto the gov't by way of the I.R.S., and that when some people like the Browns REFUSE to pay until jurisdiction can be proven, then now you KNOW the WHY Shea-Porter stone-walled on getting me the name of that GSA Agent who is supposed to be doing this N.H. RSA Ch. 123:1 filing from 1-8-17 U.S. Const., see also 40 USC 255. In other words: "One-Way Streeters" is what I call them! Violators of their oaths of office to the Const. & Laws of the United States.  Only concerned with getting $money no matter how extracted, and no matter how spent! This crap has got to stop!

For proof of her husband working for the Treasury, see today's http://www.unionleader.com/ top and front page story over at http://www.unionleader.com/article.aspx?headline=NH's+Sen.+Gregg+not+immune+to+market+ills&articleId=aa436432-9187-46e9-9d42-7e5607b74cd1 to be exact.

   I always find it interesting when you dig and find people in public office literally in bed with the people who are stomping on freedom
like a trick birthday candle that wont go out, although I'll give her husband the benefit of a doubt that they might sleep in seperate beds.

    This country is on the verge of revolt I think, and a judge in New Hampshire is busy putting a guy in jail for not sitting down quickly enough for
his liking.  Next the judges will start wearing powdered wigs, dressing as fops, and taxing tea at a premium. This out of touch ignorance will probably be their downfall.

Thanks Les, but that I get two conflicting reports here.  On one hand, the Clerk told me just a few minutes ago that he "went" (past tense I guess, not informing me he/Ian, the defendant by present tense, is now out), to [AND I guess now too from] the "House of Correction", and David's Ridley Report summary notice, yet to get the video on the youtube internet, of him only having served those 3 days for the $100 fine + 20% penalty assessment.  Moral of the story: check Ridley BEFORE Google so as not to waste any time, hopefully NOT wasted as maybe somebody in the future can refer to this information. So Judge Burke by your sentence you HAVE cost me time in writing this! HAVE a seat!  ;)  http://nhunderground.com/forum/index.php?topic=16070.0

What I held back for the surprise attack that I alert all attorneys of that I can who seek to be judges at the G&C being that they're on alert of my monitoring of them to their RSA Ch. 92:2 oaths of office to the N.H. Const. and that includes a maximum of ten (10) days for contempt in each of all three branches, since the judiciary was under the Legislature years ago, and claims to be a co-equal branch, but really the lowest of them according to Caroline (Mrs. Chuck) Douglas who told the House Judiciary Committee with John Pratt present of to read what ___________ (Hamilton, Madison or Jay) wrote about this in Chapter #__ of The Federalist Papers.

Me having been to jail for contempt numerous times, the last time for 100 days, or 90 days MORE than what the law allows by Articles 22+23, Pt. 2, N.H. Const., and so a credit I can sell or give away to others not even wanting to spend that 10 days, or portion thereof, like maybe needed to attend some Board of Directors meeting, the judge maybe an investor in a rival company (like all of Judd Gregg's stocks, see related Reply above).  :icon_pirat: and needing to be there for a crucial vote.

Yours truly, - Joe

P.S. There's also the Religious Rights as supposed to be guaranteed by Article 5 of the N.H. Const. Part First & Bill of Rights, but that I won't* get into the details of that warning right now of not to sit in such a seat, and to actually walk in wisdom TOward  them that are without. KJV: http://bible.cc/colossians/4-5.htm * Oh why not?  Re: the Golden Emerods Reply #__ above of these federal goons and their brothers down that filthy chain into the state, county and districts! http://ccel.org/bible/brenton/Leviticus/15.html Lev. 15:4 "and every seat on which he that has the issue may happen to sit, shall be unclean."

Les,

Here's another example of what you did write about:

just the allegations that some judge lobbied a prosecutor to take a certain case, landed the two defense attorneys into having to write an apology to the judge...

...but was it ever proven by the prosecutor saying it was never so?  >:D

if anyone can possibly help.... (there were several offers before)....
  after several months of trying without success, coffee seven has finally been approved to visit ed on monday (he is 6 hours away from ed, so 12 hours round trip)  he is traveling alone (as Shaun kranish backed out) and unfortunately he has to put some money into repairing his vehicle before he goes. if anyone can help out with the cost of fuel getting him there it would be greatly appreciated.  he has figured the round trip will cost approximately 80 dollars. i will cover half of that amount and would cover it all but on short notice i cant get the full amount to coffee in time for mondays trip. i have told him i would put a notice up here asking for donations to get him to marion. he didnt want to ask people for money because he knows we are all in the same boat financially.....  but i told the browns that i would be shameless in trying to get them help. and if coffee is succesfull getting to visit ed, this will be the first visitor that ed has had since he was arrested...almost 14 months and counting.... i think that is worth my asking everyone for help.
   the only issue is that he needs this money by Monday morning so basically Saturday. today being Thursday i know it is cutting it close. if there is anyone out there who has an extra forty dollars they could spare could you please send it to coffee seven at the address at the end of this message? i think it would have to be done either today or overnighted tommorow as he lives in illinois. actually i would even be willing to consider it a loan to me personally which i could send you back this week coming if that would help? including overnight fees if any....

oh and while i'm at it i might as well ask if people can remember the browns on their christmas card mailing lists.... a letter/postcard or donation to their commissary accounts and those of jason bob and reno would be greatly appreciated as well.....

and i apologize in advance if these request for funds are upsetting to some.....

What about credit card(s)? I "pledge" to send $20.00 IF he makes it there, and sends me a picture postcard from Marion / The Prison (Commissary?)  8) Souvenir Shop as proof that he at least tried to see Ed. But if no "official" Penal Colony postcard exists, then ANY picture postcard from the filling station he fills up at. I GUARANTEE it!  ;D  When Ed gets out, I'd like to use this as a bookmark in J.J.'s book, that is while I'm reading it before it, the book that is, gets donated to the local library with some bookplate attached thereto for the reader being referred over there from fiction to the non-fiction book by Ed & Elaine Brown, co-authors of the best seller of 2009: How we got out of Federal Prison. Me still working on that Writ of Formedon dealing with both a Petition to Quiet Title "and" possession, or re-possession of its caretakers!! The State Board of Claims hearing my case against the governor for his failure to act by his RSA Ch. 92:2 oath to Articles 41+ 51, N.H. Const., Part 2 from 1-8-17 U.S. Const., and as it applies to 40 USC 255 also on Friday, December 12th. Per RSA Ch. 541-B:11 at their next quarterly meeting when they "shall" meet on my October 15th Petition  Yours truly, - Joe.

Mod: N.H. RSA Ch. 123:1 of course.

Update: As already updated in my Reply #_____ of Sept. 3 '08 @ 2:28 PM Jason did receive a letter from Assistant Bar Counsel, Ellen M. Meager dated Aug. 26th of that no form is needed to file a complaint, so just to spell it out, BUT did Jason put in the "magic number" Rule 1.16 beyond those "should" words in the "comment" sections to the shall or "will" word here as I did just ask Eileen, at the 617: 728-9750 telephone number for The Attorney & Consumer Assistance Program, who said that Ellen was not in right now at 11:57 a.m. but will return my call later, to maybe get an actual copy of Jason's complaint.  A re-type copy of Ellen's letter to Jason of October 27th to follow.  Notice where she centers in on the ineffective assistance of counsel to the client, when the complaint was, or ought to have been beyond the ineffective assistance to the paymaster: us, who pay his/ their salaries, in that he/they took $money for illegal spending AGAINST the law! 18 USC 3232 where by the Rule they SHALL (or must as a mandatory duty) withdraw from the case already commenced since their continued representation withOUT a "Special" Appearance form filed in Portland, Maine will result in violation of the law! and so a violation of this Rule too, me adding this "magic number" into Jason's complaint to have Ellen please proceed onto the requested hearing for "complete"ness by both reading and hearing this testimony AND evidence in a hearing room there at their office, but if not, then an appeal to THE Bar Counsel, not Assistant Ellen, herself: "CONSTANCE V. VECCHIONE" as on the letterhead, top left corner of the page.  THEN to get to somewhere! BUT, if not withIN the system of what is supposed to be an OVERSEER, or supervisor to inspect to see if: yes, or no, they are in violation of this Rule or not, NOT to evade the question, THEN to go withOUT the system of internal corruption to the external way of me then to file an action of THEFT in the local District Court down there in MAss. for to criminally sue this/these attorneys for stealing $money from the federal source that I pay into indirectly by my boss at work paying directly, and I will not put up with any more of this bullshit! The judge there to follow through with this "inspect"ion being his/her "To review or examine officially"! Yours truly, - - Joe Haas

Jason: I did receive your letter of 8/29,Fri. postmarked 8/30, Sat. in yesterday's mail: Tue., Sept. 2nd along with the BAR COUNSEL letter, and so write it plain and simple as in this K.I.S.S. (Keep it Simple Stupid), for the: Who, What, When, Where, Why and How*, leaving out the P.S. Reference to the N.H. governor below, and the $amounts in the vouchers paid to Scully but not (yet) Norkunas, by what your complaint can read in that:

I thank my two attorneys for doing a good, but not great job, me claiming perfection by excellence and obedience to the Rules of this Bar and the law, by requesting a hearing to bring in evidence and testimony to the fact that both of my attorneys, being Rule 1.3 "charged with upholding the law" have NOT done so.  They have violated the law! I know that this quote is from the "comment" section to the actual Rule of the "should" word, but that doesn't have to be, but see the "shall" word in Rule 1.16 for BEFORE there was even ANY hearings in Portland, Maine on Jan. 22, March 3 + 14, plus June 26th that both attended, they "shall withdraw from the representation of a client": me! for "if: (1) the representation will result in violation of the rules of professional conduct or other law", to wit: 18USC3232 which waiver to hold hearings outside the District of New Hampshire was NEVER signed by me! And so a decision of reprimand is sought please for you to find, so that I may enter this into a Motion for a New Trial since the end does NOT justify the means.  I claim my right to PROCEDURAL "and" substantive "due process of law" as is supposed to be guaranteed to me by the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Const. to which the judges take an oath to honor failing which they may be impeached for dereliction of duty! These two attorneys, in effect, by their consent to an Order above that of the law, are "sociopaths" in an extreme denial of what they "shall" or must have done, of to TELL the judge that he was wrong, or at LEAST put in such an objection for appeal to the First Circuit that was NEVER done!  and then to NEVER have attended any of those hearings but to have put in a Withdrawal Notice to the court that they were dis-appearing from the case for violation of the law by the judge! Shame on them, and seconded by your decision too. Thank you "very" much. Signed: Jason Gerhard, inmate.

* Who: Scully and Norkunas, what: did violate Rule 1.16, how: by NOT withdrawing when an 18USC3232 meeting OUTside the District of N.H. was scheduled, furthermore attending such, when: in January, March and June where: in Portland, Maine why: for to collect the pay plus mileage reference the vouchers for Scully, and for "to be" paid in similar fashion or indirectly for Norkunas.

Best wishes, - - Joe
