CASE HISTORY

In the late 1980s, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors

concocted a scheme to pay state superior court judges bonus "judiciol

benefits" that are expressly forbidden by the state constitution' (which limits

them to accepting salaries and benefits pold by the state only). In exchange,

judges began ensuring that LA County won virtually all laWSUits filed against IF

when they were able to keep such cases from the hands of Juries. The Illegal

payments now total over $57.000 per year per judge (all of which can be

taken in cash\ Which payments are in addition to thEl judges' legal stote

http://counsel.lacounty.govlar,asp
)~
 ~ 2-

salaries of $179,000 and benefits worth apx. $30,000 per year. These bottom-

rung judges now have higher salaries than any other judge in the nation, even

the Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court (who receives $218,000), not to

mention all the other lesser-ranking judges across the land ($157,000 per year

for Federal District Court Judges, etc.).

The fact that the Supervisors' salaries are set by charter to equal the

superior court judges' salaries3 provides their motive for concocting the

payment scheme, In doing so, the Supervisors' have managed to entirely

circumvent the public's Involvement In setting their salaries,

When an attorney discovered the Illegal income was being received by

the judge in his clients' (homeowners) case against LA County,4 he sought to

disqualify said judge due to the impropriety of his receiving money from a

party to a case before him. The judge, however, refused to leave the case '"

and instead adjudged the attorney, Applicant Richard I. Fine, guilty of

contempt of court.

Fine's "contempt" was the culmination of a serlElS of events wherein

Judge David P. Yaffe, who faced criminal charges and repayment of the

illegal monies he'd received, made an attorney's fees Clward to Los Angeles

County and Its co-defendants (ultimately, developer Jerry B. Epstein) without

giving notice to Fine, resulting in the entry of an invalid order, In seeking to

collect Fine was ordered to answer questions concerning his assets at a

judgment debtor's examination. Rather than disobey his oath, Fine, to his

great and continuing detriment, dutifully refused to comply with the Invalid

order,

At the end of the contempt trial, wherein Judge Yoffe was a witness and

judge of the truthfulness of his own testimony, JUdge Yoffe joiled Fine, where

he's been held in solitary confinement for eleven months, from March 4, 2009,

Judge Yaffe then ordered the Sheriff to deprive Fine of ony means to

make an appeal, refusing to give him even paper and pEmcil,5 access to a law

library, access by the media,6 etc'?

Fine's Incarceration was statutorily limited to five days under CC,P, §

1218. Fine's multiple requests for release under these an<j other grounds have

been unopposed,'yet they have been steadfastly deniecJ or simply ignored by

the courts below,

Prior to the completion of the contempt trial and Fine's sentencing, the

guilty parties managed to sneak a bill through the stote legislature which

professed to grant retroactive Immunity. to ail involved for the crimes

committed.,. a conservatlvely-estimoted TEN MILLION FELONIES, as confirmed

by a renowned mathematics professor emeritus,S

However, this law, called California Senate Bill 5B)(2-11, 9 has heinously

been repeatedly and knowingly misinterpreted by the courts below in an

orchestrated effort to fool the public and protect the compromised jUdges,

(Prior recipients of the illegal payments now populate the District Court in

California, the California Supreme Court and eVen your own Ninth Circuit,) This

behavior is not only Intolerable in light of the tenets of j-he canons of judicial

ethics and the promises of their sworn oaths, word of it has spread far and

wide of late as more and more mainstream media outlets lO report the

continuing developments, deeply tarnishing the inh~grity of California's

benches for years to come,

The underlying facts in all of the above cases iinvolved the criminal

payments from LA County to LA Superior Court judges and the resultant

actions by the LA Superior Court judges and LA County j-o protect themselves

at the expense of egregiously injuring Fine, who had exposed them while

attempting to protect his clients" interests. The County and its jUdges were

then protected by the District Court and Ninth Circuit Judges with their denials

of writs of habeas corpus,

The Court is requested to note that Fine's Emen:Jency Petition to the

Ninth Circuit for Ponel Rehearing and Rehearing En Bane was filed on

December 21, 2009 (Appendix Exhibit E-/ 0). No ruling has issued with respect

thereto. Fine has also filed a Demand for Immediate Release with judge Yaffe

(Appendix A-3), which also remains unanswered.

JURISDICTION

Jurisdiction lies with the Supreme Court under 28 U.S.c. §§ 2254 (habeas

corpus) due to relief having been denied by both the District Court and the

Ninth Circuit in response to Applicant's Rule 23 motions. Caples of the Ninth

Circuit's Memorandum of Opinion, and Applicant's two Rule 23 emergency

motions for release and related motion for reconsideration submitted to the

District Court are Included in the, Appendix, together with the Court's orders

denying the some. A stay was not granted by the state court.

Relief is necessary and should be granted due to the fact that Superior

Court Judge David P. Yaffe "judged his own actions" in violation of In Re

Murchison, 349 US 133,136 (1955).

APPLICATION FOR STAY

U.S, Supreme Court precedent exists for a stay of execution of sentence

in cases of "coercive incarceration" Issued by a California superior court in a

contempt proceeding for the refusal to answer questions while the writ of

habeas corpus proceeds through the federal court system. In the writ of habeas

corpus case of William T. Farr v. SUDerior Court Justice William O. Douglas stayed

the execution of sentence imposed by the Los Angeles Superior Court for

contempt for refusing to answer questions after Farr had been in coercive

incarceration for 45 days pending the disposition of his review in the Ninth Circuit

without his having answered the questions. (See In Re Farr, 36 Cal.App.3rd 577,

580 (1974) and In Re William T. Farr on habeas corpus, 64 Cal.App,3d 605, 610

(1976).)

In the instant habeas corpus case, Fine was held in contempt of court and

ordered into "coercive incarceration " on March 4, 2009 until he answered

questions. Fine flied a petition for writ of habeas corpus on March 20, 2009 in the

U.S. District Court after having filed writs of habeas corpuc; in the California Court

of Appeal and the California Supreme Court. Fine challenged the Los Angeles

Superior Court trial Judge's jurisdiction to try the underlying case and to try the

contempt proceeding.

The trial judge, David P. Yaffe, had received ille(;;lal payments from Los

Angeles County, a party before him in the underlying case. The payments were

held to violate Article VI. Section 19, of the California Constitution In the case of

;'1

 - II -

Sturgeon v. County of Los Angeles. 167 Cal.App.4th 630 (2008), review denied

12/23/2008,

Judge Yaffe received retroactive immunity from criminal prosecution, civil

liability and disciplinary action for such Illegal payments pursuant to Senate Bill

SBX2-11, enacted February 20,2009, effective May 21,2009.

During the proceedings In the underlying case, and after Fine left as

counseP2 opposing Los Angeles County, on January 8, 2008, JUdge Yaffe

ordered Fine to pay attorney's fees and costs to Los Angeles County and its co-

applicant for an Environmental Impact Report without giving notice to Fine of

the January 8, 2008 hearing, without Fine present at the hearing, and In violation

of the California Public Resources Code.

In a hearing on March 20, 2008, Judge Yaffe admi"lted, for the first time in

the case, to receiving the payments from Los Angeles County. On March 25,

12 Fine's reason for leaving the underlying case was that the California State Bar ordered him
Inactive from bringing Federal civil rights lawsuits challenging the Los Angeles County payments
to Los Angeles Superior Court judges, Fine was subsequently disbarred for "moral turpitude" on
March 23, 2009 for having brought such lawsuits and challenging Los ,A,ngeles Superior Court
judges for having received such payments,

The U,S, Supreme Court denied Fine's petition for writ of certiorari challenging such disbarment
on First Amendment grounds and due process grounds, (See Case OB-1573,) The petition was
not opposed, (The Court may wish to reconsider Its action sua sponte,) Five of the six California
Supreme Court Justices who denied Fine's petition for review in the dl~;barment case had
previously received illegal county payments while they were superior court judges. They
received retroactive immunity for such conduct under Senate Bill SBX2-11, The sixth Justice was
a member of the Judicial Council of California which drafted Senote 13ill SBX2-11. These justices
are Chief Justice George and Justices Chen, Corrigan, Kennard, Momno and Baxter,
respectively,

On September 2, 2009, the Ninth Circuit stayed its own disbarment action against Fine pending
the outcome of the habeas appeal, noting that the iwo issues "overIClp", (Ninth Cir, Case No.
09-80130,)

2008, Fine flied a CCP § 170.3 objection to JUdg,~ Yaffe requesting his

recusaL Judge Yaffe did not respond, and was j-hus automatically disqualified

under CCP § 170.3(c)(4). Judge Yaffe refused to leave the case. On April 15,

2008, he signed an order for attorney's fees pursuant to the January 8. 2008

order. Fine was subsequently ordered to answer questions about his assets in a

judicial proceeding to enforce the January 8 and April 15, 2008 orders. Fine

refused, claming the orders were void as judge Yaffe should have recused

himself due to the Los Angeles County payments and due to his subsequent

disqualification,

On November 3, 2008, JUdge Yaffe issued an Order to Show Cause

COSC") re contempt against Fine, Fine moved to dismiss the OSC The motion

was denied. Judge Yaffe presided at the contempt triol over Fine's objection,

and gave testimony therein. Judge Yaffe judged his own actions.

Judge Yaffe was the first witness at the contempt trial. He testified that he

received payments from Los Angeles County, did not report them on his Form

700 mandatory disclosure statement did not have any employment agreement

with Los Angeles County or any arrangement to provide services for Los Angeles

County, did not place the payments In his campaign fund, and could not

remember any case In the last three years that he decided against Los Angeles

County.

JUdge Yaffe was a state-elected judge. The Los Angeles County

payments were $46,366 per year, or 27% of his annual stat,COl salary of $178,800.

1--(
 - 13 -

The certified question before the Ninth Circuit is "whether the trial judge

[Judge Yaffe) should have recused himself." The panel Issued a Memorandum

on December 16, 2009 affirming the District Court's decision to deny Fine's

petition for writ of habeas corpus, Fine has been in "comc/ve incarceration" for

eleven months, since March 4, 2009, The Ninth Circuit clenied two unopposed

motions to set Fine free pending resolution of the appeoL and one motion for

reconsideration, which was also unopposed,

A Demand for Fine's Immediate Release was flied against Judge Yaffe

on January 27, 2010 (Appendix Exhibit A-3); It remains unanswered as of this

writing, os does Fine's Emergency Petition for Rehearing En Bane filed with the

Ninth Circuit on December 21. 2009 (Appendix Exhibit E-16). and his Motion to

Disqualify (Panel) Judges Reinhardt Trott and Wardlaw, filed February 3, 201 0

(Appendix Exhibit E-17) regarding their relationships With Los Angeles County.

Based upon the precedent of Justice Douglas' adion In the Forr case,

Fine respectfully requests that the Court grant a stay of execution of sentence.
