Dear Congressman Conyers, Senator Leahy, and Congresswoman McIntosh Slaughter:

Please accept instant notice as a request for initiating investigation and where appropriate - impeachment
proceedings, pursuant to Section 4 of Article Two of the United States Constitution, against TERRY NAFISI
– Clerk of the Court, US District Court, Central District of California
The conduct of Clerk TERRY NAFISI is alleged as violation of her Oath of Office, including, but not
limited to: denial of access to the courts, deprivation of rights under the color of law, and/or misprision of
felonies; therefore - impeachable offences.
The cases should be considered of the highest public policy significance, because of the nature of underlying
matters:
1. Log Cabin Republicans v United States of America et al (2:04-cv-08425) [i ]
It is alleged that Clerk TERRY NAFISI colluded with Judges GEORGE SCHIAVELLI and
VIRGINIA PHILLIPS JOHN WALTER and Magistrate CHARLES EICK in the conduct of pretense
litigation, which undermined the rights of all gay persons, who serve in the armed forces of the United
States.
2. Fine v Sheriff (2:09-cv-01914) [ii ,iii ,iv ,v ]
It is alleged that Clerk TERRY NAFISI colluded with Judge JOHN WALTER and Magistrate
CARLA WOEHRLE in the conduct of pretense litigation, intended to cover-up criminality by Judge
DAVID YAFFE of the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles and Sheriff LEROY
z Page 2/5 December 7, 2010

BACA, County of Los Angeles, pertaining to alleged false imprisonment of former US prosecutor
Richard Fine with no valid arrest and/or booking records.
3. Zernik v Connor et al (2:08-cv-01550) [vi ,vii ,viii ]
It is alleged that Clerk TERRY NAFISI colluded with Judge VIRGINIA PHILLIPS, and Magistrate
CARLA WOEHRLE in the conduct of pretense litigation under Zernik v Connor et al, intended to
cover-up criminality by BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATION (and COUNTRYWIDE
FINANICIAL CORPORATION) and its most senior officers, and also alleged criminality by Judges
of the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, all named Defendants in the caption.
Therefore, conduct of Clerk TERRY NAFISI undermines the Human, Constitutional, and Civil rights of all
who come to the US District Court, Central District of California for protection of rights. Furthermore,
conduct of Clerk NAFISI undermines Banking Regulation in the United States. It should be noted that the
Central District of California is one of the most populous in the United States.
The conduct of Clerk TERRY NAFISI also reflects structural deficiencies in the integrity of the United States
courts:
1. Lack of accountability of the Clerks of the Courts for the integrity of the electronic court records.
Conditions, which now prevail in the US courts, enable the publication of false and deliberately
misleading PACER dockets and false and deliberately misleading minutes, orders, and judgments.
2. Lack of validity and integrity of PACER and CM/ECF as electronic court administration systems.
The systems enable the publication of dockets, minutes, orders, and judgments in a manner that
prevents the public from distinguishing between records, which the US courts themselves deem valid
and effectual and records, which the US courts themselves deem void. The systems were
implemented over the past decade by the Administrative Office of the US Courts with insufficient
public oversight. It is claimed that the systems were central to undermining the integrity of the US
courts.
The reports, linked below, proposed corrective measures by US Congress:
1. Restoring provisions of the Salary Act of 1919 - placing the clerks under the authority of the US
Attorney General.
The Salary Act of 1919 was credited as a key measure in restoring the integrity of the US courts a
century ago. It placed the clerks under authority of the US Attorney General. Conditions in the courts
today indicate that reform is in order – through placing the clerks under authority of the US Attorney
General again. [ix ]
2. Enacting federal rules for the electronic administration of the courts.
Implementation of electronic case management and online public access systems amounted to a sea-
change in court procedures. Regardless, both the courts and the US Congress have so far failed to
establish design and operation of the systems under statute.
Combined, the two above measures by US Congress could address the following issues:
1. Restoring accountability of the clerks for the integrity of electronic court records.
The evidence demonstrates that clerks today hold themselves unaccountable for the validity and
integrity of electronic court records, in particular – online public access systems.
2. Restoring the right to access judicial records – to inspect and to copy.
z Page 3/5 December 7, 2010

Combined, PACER and CM/ECF are today used to conceal critical attestation/authentication
records (the NEFs and NDAs), and therefore do not permit the public to distinguish between valid
and effectual court records and such that are deemed by the US courts as void.
3. Establishing valid digital signatures on all applicable court records by judges, clerks, and counsel.
The evidence shows that courts established as acceptable, various methods, which do not meet
minimal requirements for valid digital signatures for judges, clerks, and counsel.
4. Establishing valid procedures for the clerks’ electronic attestation/authentication records.
The evidence shows that the NEFs and NDAs, which were established by the US courts as
electronic clerks’ attestation/authentication records are invalid and void.
5. Establishing publicly accessible, valid procedures for certification by counsel of his/her
authorization as counsel of record for parties on behalf of whom counsel appears in court.
Certification of counsel’s authority as counsel of record was left vague and ambiguous, permitting
unauthorized appearances in the courts.
6. Validation of electronic administrative systems of the courts.
Validation of such systems must be undertaken prior to their installation, in a manner that is legally
and publicly accountable – e.g. through agencies that are accountable to the legislative branch.
Such validation should be based on certified, functional logic verification [x ] in all stages of from
development, through implementation, to any modifications and ongoing security. [xi ]
Inherent in the validation of the system is also the requirement that all unpublished Local Rules of
Court, which are today embedded in specification and implementation of the systems, be explicitly
pre-published in natural language for public comment and challenge, as required by the
Rulemaking Enabling Act. [xii ]
It should be noted that similar problems were previously identified in the implementation of
electronic voting machines, and that the US government is yet to adequately address the latter
issue, despite ongoing protests. [xiii , xiv ]
7. Establishing an enhanced level of transparency in the electronic administrative systems of the
courts.
Enhanced transparency is required to permit ongoing effective public monitoring of the systems.
In case additional information would be needed in the course of investigations, beyond that which is
provided in the attached and linked reports, I would be happy to provide any help possible.
Your attention to these matters is kindly requested.
Truly,
