Some Practical Advice for Support Contemnors in the State of Washington.
A Way to Walk a Mile in a Noncustodial Parent's Moccasins.
Please check out the litigation listed toward the bottom of the web page Knight v. State Writ of Prohibition Against Contempt Prosecution where I was forced to file a Motion to Modify Commissioner's Decision citing Antipeonage Act because the State of Washington imposed a court order that is a direct violation of the Antipeonage Act, requiring me to maintain at least 30 hours of work per week or make 3 job contacts. Therefore, I display my Brief of Appellant because this is an issue of extreme public importance for which the public should be aware.
My latest Reply Brief of Appellant provides the answers to California's Moss v. Superior Court, the Ninth Circuit's Ballek, and Hawaii's new Child Support Enforcement Agency v. Doe, No. 24457, (Hawaii, December 27, 2005) 109 Hawaii 240, 125 P. 3d. 461, each an obscenity against the Rule of Law.
Petition for Writ of Certiorari to the United States Supreme Court is considered filed as of the date I mailed it, August 8, 2007, within 90 days of June 6, 2007. It is docketed as No. 07-184.
One analogy to illustrate the absurdity of the proposition that choice of employer avoids finding of involuntary servitude is with Washington's Death Penalty statute, RCW 10.95.180(1) grants the condemned a choice: lethal injection or hanging. No one seriously argues that merely because the condemned has a choice in his demise, there is no death penalty. However, California's Moss v. Superior Court, the Ninth Circuit's Ballek, and Hawaii's Doe uses this precise logic: if the peon has a choice of employer, there is no involuntary servitude!
Patently absurd, of course!

Another weapon in our defense is to file a complaint against an attorney with the Washington State Bar Association. I obtained this Grievance Form in Microsoft Word XP off of their website.

Allow me to let you in on a dirty little secret here. Consider this: Say you are a judge in Washington's court system. Or any other court system actually, but Washington is the one I am most familiar with. We all know about the incredible and universal gender bias in family law, and the absolute lack of respect for noncustodial parents as human beings. Observing this is like observing that the sky is blue. But it is just not credible that ALL of our judges are THAT BIGOTED. SOMETHING is placing the thumb on the scales of justice here, that is the only explanation that makes sense! And here is what it is: As a judge, you know that if you make a ruling that offends certain elements in our society you will be BORKED! In Washington, there are two primary means of borking a judge. 1) Putting up credible sounding candidates against your re-election when judges who NEED to be removed for their refusal to enforce Constitutional rights of politically incorrect litigants (meaning noncustodials and others) never face a challenger. Judge Jeanette Burrage suffered from that fate, and from her own foolishness in admonishing female attorneys for wearing pantsuits instead of dresses. 2) A campaign of judicial conduct complaints. Justice Richard Sanders has experienced this. Power Structure just does not like his dissents, but what saves him is that he is popular with the voting public, the only thing that comes even close to frightening the Power Structure. Notice I use capital letters. Everyone in Washington smarter and more observant than a doorknob knows we have one, even if we cannot "prove" it. An organization with access to, say, numerous divorce files without having to spend hours at the courthouse looking them up, would be in a perfect position to organize a CAMPAIGN of Judicial Conduct Commission complaints against a judge who pissed them off. Litigants in these divorces unhappy with this particular judge will be happy to fill out and file these complaints when prompted. And because judicial conduct complaints are mostly SECRET, we do not know and cannot verify, if there is ACTUALLY A CAMPAIGN of such complaints against a particular judge. Because every judge is a human being, and therefore not perfect, there will be at least one incident described in these complaints, where the judge messed up bad enough to warrant discipline!
Same thing with lawyers, which might explain their fear of FORCEFULLY representing noncustodial parents and even to mention the Antipeonage Act in the same context as family law.
So what do we do? Answer is to realize that the thumb on the scales of justice is political, and is motivated by some unreasoning hatred of noncustodial parents, and/or the Seven Deadly Sins including avarice (fancy word for greed) and there is only one thing we NEED to do in ADDITION to everything else we do: Put OUR thumb on the other side of the scales of justice.
Judicial Conduct Commission complaints, folks. Bar complaints against support enforcer attorneys. EVERY time they give you cause to file such complaints! Clue: What works are lies, excuse me, "misstatements of fact" ;-), told by attorney to court that were uncorrected and repeated after you asserted that the truth is otherwise. Back it up with evidence. That gets the disciplinary counsel fired up!

For on line commentary on our judges, there is the Courthouse Forum.
Court of Appeals Division Two Commissioner Mark H. Adams was Forced to Resign by the Commission on Judicial Conduct for being weird. The Stipulation. My objection is with respect to the diary he kept at the SUGGESTION OF A COUNSELOR. So much for doctor-patient privilege and medical privacy. Under this circumstance, a judge dare not keep any diary or undergo any treatment for any mental or psychological condition because such cannot be protected from disclosure to the Commission on Judicial Conduct. The inevitable result will be some of our cases being heard by judges whose mental health issues go UNTREATED.

Notice a pattern here? Perhaps the destruction of the institution of marriage and the family is more due to the pecuniary interest of those to whom we award bar licenses and elect to political and judicial office than to two people of the same gender wanting to try it. Phyllis Schafly finally noticed this. She noticed it Again. She opposes reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act as the femi-nazi crap that it is.
Brian Maynard Tollefson, WSBA 7197, Tacoma, Washington 98407 DOB April 25, 1951 Voted by absentee on November 2, 2004 Voted again on November 8, 2005 Superior Court personal web page Pierce County No. 84-2-02833-1 defendant and third party plaintiff civil; Pierce County No. 85-2-01842-2 plaintiff tort motor vehicle; Pierce County No. 86-2-08294-3 plaintiff collection; Pierce County No. 89-2-06033-2 plaintiff tort motor vehicle; Pierce County No. 99-2-08442-5 plaintiff unlawful detainer; Pierce County No. 86-9-05370-1 judgment creditor regular civil case for $4,063.29; Censured and suspended by the Commission on Judicial Conduct for intemperate and abusive language and behavior towards court staff and another judge, and for failing to maintain his impartiality in a child custody matter by undertaking an ex parte investigation outside the courtroom. The Stipulation. Stipulated Amendment to Statement of Charges. Statement of Charges. Answer to Statement of Charges.
I remember this case! It is Inderbitzen v. Allen Pierce County No. 94-5-00454-5. Mark Inderbitzen won custody of the child and is the judgment creditor for child support in Pierce County No. 96-9-00464-3, Pierce County No. 96-9-09636-0, and Pierce County No. 98-9-10870-4. Initially he had to pay child support to Lynda Allen, Pierce County No. 94-9-05902-6. Notice that in each of these judgments the losing party got dinged for attorney's fees in addition to the child support. When I spoke with Lynda Allen about these matters, her complaint was that the guardian ad litem was presenting reports that caused Judge Tollefson's bullshit detection meter to read off the scale. So the Judge looked into it and got into trouble. I attended a little demonstration at the City-County Building with Lynda, Mario Young, and a few other concerned citizens in SUPPORT of Judge Tollefson! I asked a courthouse security guard if he ever saw citizens demonstrating in support of a judge. He replied that it was the first time he ever saw such a thing!
My complaint against guardians ad litem is that they present in their reports copious quantities of HEARSAY evidence, and they never sign their paperwork UNDER PENALTY OF PURJURY or present it UNDER OATH. Therefore, they never risk a charge of perjury should any of the facts they present be FALSE. On both counts, with few exceptions, such evidence as to fact is INADMISSIBLE in ALL OTHER TYPES OF CIVIL CASES, AND IN ALL CRIMINAL CASES!
Yet guardian ad litem reports are regularly used to decide custody, visitation and other parental rights with respect to children. And judges are not to question such reports, merely to accept them on faith as the gospel truth.

Conoley, WSBA 7588 of the Kitsap County Superior Court How did they do it? In the State of Washington an elected judge has to be registered to vote within the territory over which his court has jurisdiction, RCW 29A.20.021. He switched his vote to his wife's house in Kitsap County after he retired from the bench. Before they retired from the benches, to maintain two judicial paychecks from different counties going into the same marital community they maintained two separate households. She lives in a big house in Port Orchard and he used to live on a boat parked at a marina in Tacoma. He actually lived there, received his mail there, because if he did not, some citizen could have challenged his voter registration and therefore his eligibility to serve as an elected judge in Pierce County! Pierce County No. 96-2-13960-8 defendant civil;
Now who would do a thing like that? ;-)
