"Birther Queen" says Sam Begley lacks any "human decency" BUT does not sign anything.

Dr. Orly Taitz, Esquire, filed more responses, motions, and an amended complaint yesterday in her lawsuit seeking to remove President Obama from the ballot in Mississippi. The Secretary of State and Mississippi Democratic Party are defendants. Dr. Taitz, contends the President is using a forged social security number and is not an American citizen. She filed suit against the Democratic Party and Secretary of State on February 14, 2012 in Hinds County Circuit Court. However, the five petitions and responses she filed yesterday were not signed by Dr. Taitz and are probably invalid under Rule 11 of the Mississippi Rules of Civil Procedure.


Rule 11 of the Mississippi Rules of Civil Procedure states:

"(a)Signature Required. Every pleading or motion of a party represented by an attorney shall be signed by at least one attorney of record in that attorney’s individual name, whose address shall be stated. A party who is not represented by an attorney shall sign that party’s pleading or motion and state the party’s address. Except when otherwise specifically provided by rule or statute, pleadings need not be verified or accompanied by affidavit."

Dr. Taitz mailed the following documents to the Hinds County Circuit Clerk. They were received and filed on April 19, 2012 (The stack of documents in the picture are all that were filed yesterday by Dr. Taitz.). Since they cover different subjects, each document is listed and discussed separately.

1. Emergency Motion/Petition for a Mississippi Subpoena to Support California Subpoena. Dr. Taitz described herself as a "pro se plaintiff" and a "licensed attorney in California". She said since the defendants filed answers, the suit is now in discovery phase. Dr. Taitz wants to serve two witnesses with California subpoenas. The witnesses allegedly have evidence the President does not have "valid identification "papers". The petition is not signed. (pages 1-9 of documents posted below).

2.Opposition to Motion in Limine. The Mississippi Democratic Party filed a motion in limine on March 22 (Pages 11-14 below). The motion sought to cross-examine Dr. Taitz to determine whether she was "economically" induced (in other words paid) to file the lawsuit. The motion cited the bar against the practice of champerty in Mississippi.

Dr. Taitz responded to this motion in pretty strong language. She said the "motion in itself is a sign of an unprecedented level of corruption, total lack of integrity, human decency, and any values by the defendants and their attorney, Mr. Samuel Begley". Dr. Taitz then stated she "is acting as a decent human being (a concept which is obviously foreign to the defendant and Mr. Begley.). Dr. Taitz then argues even if someone is helping her with donations, "it still does not change the essence of the case." She does not once mention the statute about champerty in her response nor does she cite any case law referring to champerty. She cites no law to refute the motion. This response was not signed by anyone. Earlier post on motion in limine

3. Response to Letter by Samuel Begley demanding to waive for attorney Scott J. Tepper the requirement to disclose publicly his address in his pro hac vice application (Pages 15-19) Mr. Tepper is a California attorney who has fought similar lawsuits filed by Dr. Taitz around the country. Mr. Begley asked the court to allow Mr. Tepper to associate with him in representing the Mississippi Democratic Party. The court approved the request. However, Mr. Begley asked the court to waive the requirement Mr. Tepper include his address in the application. The Jackson attorney stated Mr. Tepper would provide his residential address to the court but in private. Mr. Begley claimed in a letter to Judge Coleman

"Mr. Tepper's residential address was intentionally omitted from the verified application on the reasonable belief that, if made publically availabel, the address would in turn be published on the internet by the "birther community" following this case. As evidenced by the Plaintiff's website, www.orleytaitzesq.com, the Plaintiff frequently publishes the names, addresses, phone numbers, and other personal information of persons involved in or associated with litigation she has filed. Moreover, the Plaintiff frequently posts requests on her website instructing her supporters to flood the published address or email with a particular message. I have enclosed two examples for your review." Copy of letter and examples

Dr. Taitz stated "Mr. Tepper was no gentleman and viciously attacked and defamed attorney Orly Taitz for bringing to court evidence of Barak Obama using a forged birth certificate and a stolen Social Security number." She calls him an "imaginary blue blood" and says his "comrades commissioned a painter to pain inappropriate pornographic nude paintings of Ory Taitz and posted them all over the internet, in the local papers, and sent them to her three children." She claims her privacy was "invaded" and she was "viciously slandered and attacked." This is all in the first two paragraphs. She refers to President Obama as a criminal who is able to stay in office "with the help of corrupt bureaucrats, attorneys, and some judges." She says that disqualifies Mr. Tepper from representing the Mississippi Democratic Party: "Teppers involvement makes him a potential defendant to be added in the first amended complaint and as such he also has a conflict of interest with the client he intends to represent and cannot be their attorney."

Could any attorney represent a defendant in a Taitz lawsuit if she started alleging the attorney was part of some wide-spread conspiracy to keep Obama in office? It is interesting Dr. Taitz does not state anywhere in her response she will not do to Mr. Tepper what Mr. Begley has accused her of doing to others. This response was not signed by anyone.

4. Opposition to Motion to Dismiss by the Defendant Democratic Party of Mississippi. Opposition to Motion for Sanctions. Motion for Sanctions against the Democratic Party of Mississippi. Motion for leave to file amended complaint. The documents are posted below. The MDP filed a motion to dismiss and stated in the first paragraph the President is a natural-born citizen of Hawaii. Dr. Taitz says just because they "say it is so" doesn't make it so so she asserts it was never proved. The MDP also said Dr. Taitz had no standing to file suit as she is a resident of California. Dr. Taitz cites sections 23-15-952 and 961 of the Mississippi Code in claiming they do not require the plaintiff to be a "qualified elector in Mississippi." Part 1 of this set of motions, Part 2

The Mississippi Democratic Party filed a motion for sanctions against Dr. Taitz. The response calls the motion "completely frivolous." She claims the "recent findings of Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County, Arizona" fully vindicate her. Dr. Taitz then for some reason starts accusing a federal judge in Georgia of trying to intimidate her. Just to make sure you get the idea it didn't work, Dr. Taitz states "Judge Land did not succeed in intimidating Taitz". Dr. Taitz then takes it upon herself to post the judge's social security number.

The motion for sanctions against the Democratic Party is pretty short and um, sweet. It states the MDP received a complaint from Dr. Taitz. The complaint said the President is using a forged birth certificate, a stolen social security number, and a name that is not his own. The Democratic Party "defrauded" the voters by not removing his name from the list of candidates. It filed a "frivolous motion" against Dr. Taitz and is "harassing" her and trying to "intimidate" her by asking for sanctions. Dr. Taitz then asks the court for permission to file an amended complaint. After she already filed one.

Once again, none of these documents were signed by Dr. Taitz or anyone. Looks like all that work might be for nothing.

Almost better than a soap opera. I'm thankful I'm not the Judge having to sort this mess out.

David McCarty said...

King, I think you are correct--an unsigned pleading is not only a nullity, trying to file one could open yourself to sanctions beyond even the content.

That being said, it's a curious (and possibly inadvertent) failure. While the good dentist may not be one of us, she certainly knows to sign her pleadings (as you know, Rule 11, or versions of it, is fairly universal in federal and state courts).

The woman needs psychiatric help.

If you or anyone you know doesn't understand that this woman is irrational and delusional, please seek mental health care immediately before you or they become a risk to yourself or others.

This isnt' about politics , it's about sanity.

David, I think you are correct on the law, but if the woman thinks Obama was born in Kenya, she may well think she can outsmart Rule 11 by just not signing anything.

I'm confident she also has strong views on the validity vel non of the 16th Amendment.

Pro se plaintiffs are THE BEST.

There's no doubt that Obama is an empty suit but I don't have any hope of his being beaten by Romney (who I am going to vote for). Personally, I believe Obama was born on the planet Pluto and dropped off here by a group of Plutonians who were so embarrassed by him they promptly resigned from "planet" status.

Anderson said...

Maybe next, Taitz will file suit vs. NASA for violating the 5th Amendment's Takings Clause by depriving Pluto of its planetary status.

At least then she might have standing.

Sam Begley. What a class act.

Its like the writ writers at Parchman got WordPerfect and a printer. It's embarrassing that she has a law degree.

With as many leftists as there are ginning up fabrications of his imaginary accomplishments, what's wrong with one more nut on the other side to gin up equal nonsense? Don't we deserve a level playing field?

Lil Sammy B,

I hadn't thought about him since Dale Danks days.

I assumed he would have become a capitalist by now.

Guess not.

Timothy said...

If the Birth Cert is fake why is it taking so long for anything to happen? Should his ability to make any legal decisions be suspended until everything is proven? How can the Dem party even try to get him re-elected if there is a question that he should not have been elected in the first place?

I guess if it were not for dead issues, some people would have nothing else to do.

Timmy... There's no question by anyone with an IQ higher than a grape.

9:26am I wish that were true. It should be. But, I've heard people with post graduate degrees spout this nonsense.

People believe what they want to believe, no matter how far fetched and will avoid any facts that might disabuse them of such nonsense.

They will believe what someone they know and like, regardless of how misinformed that person may be.

They will grasp at straw to hold tightly to a myth they want to be true.

They will listen to and read only those things that reinforce what they already believe.

And, there are those who cannot admit they were misled or just wrong to start.

This Taitz person would have to face that she has wasted a good part of her life and much money foolishly. She's extreme and is obviously beginning to unravel, but there are degrees of dysfunction.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
