Berry, Appendices of Trial Exhibits, etc.] ) COMES NOW RESPONDENT GRAHAM E. BERRY, IN PRO PER, AND FILES HIS COMBINED OPPOSITION TO EIGHT MOTIONS TO QUASH ETC., FILED BY THIRD PARTIES MICHAEL GERNER, ET. AL. I.SUMMARY OF FACTS AND ARGUMENT A. Respondent did not personally sign any of the relevant eight subpoenas duces tecum ('SDTs'). They were obtained from "the Clerk." Rule 152(c). Movants wrongly attempt to mislead the court to the contrary. B. The SDTs were properly served. C. Fatally, Movants engaged in discovery misuse by failing to engage in the mandatory "meet and confer" conference or to submit the mandatory "meet and confer" statement herein. D. Movants have waived any attorney client objections. E. Movants have waived their attorney work product objections. F. Movants motion is untimely. G. Certain of the Movant's, and their clients, have a long history of criminal and fraudulent abuse of the legal system. H. Certain of the Movants have engaged in demonstrable criminal and fraudulent conduct, intentionally directed at Respondent, in connection with the underlying matters giving rise to these proceedings, and in connection with these proceedings themselves. I. In connection with the underlying proceedings, and aspects of these proceedings, a retired L.A.Superior Court judge has determined that certain of the Movant's were engaged in criminal and fraudulent conduct and recommended that the Crime-Fraud Exception to the attorney client privilege applied. The relevant Movants (Moxon, Kobrin, Paquette, Wager, Abelson and Byrnes) immediately dismissed the Hurtado litigation. They did not contest the Attorney-client crime-fraud exception. J. Respondent has produced objective and prima facie evidence of attorney-client criminal and fraudulent conduct in connection with the claim of attorney-client privilege before the court. K. The Ingram investigation report and file, and another attorney work product file (Berry falsehoods) have already been produced. Thus, any attorney work product claim has already been irretrievably waived. L. The discovery requested by respondent is relevant, necessary and within the scope of permissible discovery. It is sought in good faith. M. Movant's are engaged in a continuing obstruction of justice in connection with both the underlying proceedings and with these proceedings. The State Bar, upon it's own admission, did not properly investigate these matters. Instead it relied upon the misrepresentations of the Movants herein. The State Bar has over-charged Respondent and refuses/fails to recognize and/or take action in connection with Movant's wrongful conduct. N. The SDTs were addressed to Movants personally and individually and to their respective law firms. No responses, production or motions have been made or filed by the Movants as individuals. Movant's employer law firms have filed the only appearance and motions, except perhaps, as to Abelson. II. INTRODUCTION Shakespeare wrote, "Oh what tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive." A corollary of this was taught by Respondent's mother who said, " Always tell the truth because the truth always come out." The Church of Scientology has judicially recognized "Fair Game" policies and practices which mandate, in effect, the subordination of perjury, the obstruction of justice, the spoliation of evidence and the concealment of truth. These policies and practices must be employed in all litigation, upon pain of severe punishment, by all those who work with the Legal Unit of the Church of Scientology's Office of Special Affairs ("OSA"). At least five of the Movant's herein work in fact, if not by business address, within OSA. Not only does OSA have its own in-house counsel, but OSA also retains certain outside lawyers. Indeed, upon the evidence presented herein, they can truly be called "out-law(yers)." However, OSA's out-lawyers are not habitually "drilled" in lying and telling "acceptable truths" by church "training routine ("TRs"). App. Consequently, OSA's out-lawyers sometimes will inadvertently blurt out the truth. Movant Wager has done that here.App.A, pp.7-13. Movant Wager is President of the Criminal Courts Bar Association for the County of Los Angeles. The evidence herein establishes that in December 1999, Respondent was litigating against Movants in the underlying Berry v. Cipriano, Barton & Miscavige (Ingram, Moxon & Abelson) and the Pattinson v. Miscavige/Church of Scientology cases.App.F. As part of their defense in these cases, and their improper discovery, Ingram, Moxon and Wager solicited the representation of Michael Hurtado. Hurtado was at that time a client of Respondent. Hurtado became a client of Moxon and Wager's, before Hurtado himself knew it, and is now in prison for five years on matters not directly related to the issues at Bar. Movants Wager and Moxon convinced Hurtado to file a false, but verified, Legal Malpractice/Sexual Battery case against Respondent. They then introduced Hurtado, and an Anthony Apodaca, into the Berry v. Cipriano, et. al. cases in an attempt to falsely corroborate what Cipriano has repeatedly testified (even under cross-examination by former counsel Moxon) was perjury obtained through blackmail, bribery, obstruction of justice, fraud and more.App.A, pp.2-15. Ingram, Moxon, the giant Paul, Hastings, Janofsky & Walker law firm and other major law firms, manufactured and used this perjury to provoke the Cipriano case and then to obstruct and abuse the process of justice.App.B, Exh.2&3. Movant Moxon used the baseless Hurtado federal and state law suits to make false claims before the Bankruptcy Court. Also, based on Hurtado's perjury and vexatious federal and state cases, Movants Moxon & Kobrin unsuccessfully demanded Respondent's insurance carrier settle the Hurtado v. Berry cases for $700,000.00. Instead, the C.N.A. Insurance Group stood behind Respondent and conducted discovery. See generally, App.A. The discovery eventually caused Movants Byrnes, Moxon & Kobrin (assisted by Movant Abelson) to voluntarily dismiss the Hurtado v. Berry cases, on February 6,1991,upon the eve of trial. In all of the circumstances, Respondent now has the "mother of all" malicious prosecution and abuse of process cases against certain of the Movant attorneys, their clients and others. On January 27, 1999, Wager used the suborned and perjured Hurtado allegations to make a demonstrably baseless motion, supported itself by perjury, to the Chief Judge of the Santa Monica Branch of the Los Angeles Superior Court. The perjured claims were properly referred to the State Bar which commenced its own investigation. On June 3, 1999, and in numerous letters, telephone calls and meetings over the next eighteen months, Movants Gerner and Wager persisted in the most outrageous efforts to persuade the State Bar to file the disciplinary charges herein. On October 25, 1999, they even insisted upon being regularly and "fully advised of the progress of these matters…and the evaluation of [the State Bar] office" regarding the within proceedings. App. L, Exs.1-11A.They then were concentrated upon Hurtado's perjured allegations against Berry, solicited and advanced by Movants Wager, Moxon & Kobrin. Obligingly, the State Bar pressured Respondent into immediately disbanding his practice and taking "inactive status". Various State Bar prosecutors then apparently refused to proceed with a prosecution, until the present prosecutor embarked upon this cause celebre. In late 2000, the State Bar closed its investigation of the Hurtado aspects of this current State Bar Matter. Without batting an eye over the fact that Movants Gerner and Wager were now objectively known to have filed a false State Bar complaint, the State Bar immediately filed the remaining Gerner and Wager/Scientology claims herein. Amazingly, the State Bar's prosecutor has claimed that she filed those Notice of Charges herein without being fully familiar with the facts and evidence, because there "are too many facts and documents". Indeed, the early versions of the Notice of Charges herein bore the hallmarks of having being drafted by and/or assisted by Scientology out-lawyer counsel. There was an outpouring of public outrage. App.L, Exs.21-44. The first judge to handle this matter Judge Marcus, recused himself from selection as the trial judge herein because he had received voluminous mail from the public and was "biased." Gerner and Wager are both also OSA out-lawyers. At his deposition in the Hurtado v. Berry State Court case on January 19, 2001, Wager admitted to depositing $300 into a // prisoner, non-client's jail account so that the convict would have money. App.A, p.10: 7-9. Wager had not previously known the prisoner (Anthony Apodaca). Apodaca has never been a client of Wager. The prisoner, transvestite Anthony Apodaca, testified that he understood that he received the money and other benefits to falsely testify that he had under-age commercial and "kinky" sex with Respondent. Later, Apodaca testified that he never met Respondent but identified him after being shown Respondent's photograph in an American Lawyer magazine article (on Movant Moxon & Kobrin's intentional destruction of the Cult Awareness Network ["CAN"]). App.A, pp.10: 10-26.CAN is now owned and operated by the Church of Scientology. During this meeting certain of the Movants were present. Wager also testified that he believed that the payment to Apodaca was reimbursed by Movant Moxon.App.A, p.10: 9. Retired Superior Court Judge Lachs stated his discovery referee's recommendation that the crime-fraud exception barred any claims of attorney-client privilege as between, at the very least, Movants Moxon & Kobrin, Abelson, Byrnes, Wager and OSA/Scientology. OSA 's out-lawyer Wager had blurted out the truth. Hurtado's representation was intentionally and carefully solicited in serious breach of applicable Rules of Ethics.App.A, p.7: 27-10:5. So was the representation of Cipriano.App.B, Ex.2, 23-36.The Cipriano confessions and testimony physically ties certain of the Movants to serious criminal, civil and unethical conduct in connection with the underlying Berry and Pattinson cases. Cipriano's testimony has never been denied or rebutted on the relevant records, despite withering cross-examination by his former lawyer and criminal co-conspirator, Moxon.App.A, pp.4: 8-7:26. See generally, Temp.App.AA. [July 18, 2001, draft and partial R.I.C.O.list. R.I.C.O. was pleaded in the underlying Berry and Pattinson cases. Arrogantly, the same participants in such unprecedented attorney criminality and conspiracy now baselessly demand, as third parties, that Respondent's discovery be unconstitutionally eliminated or restricted. Movant's eight motions. In a case relevant to the Pattinson allegations herein, Scientology was determined to have used such advance notice for the purpose of massive evidence shredding and destruction. Indeed, Movant Simke & Chodos claim that they do not have responsive documents in connection with the underlying Berry and Pattinson cases. Chodos, Dec.6. A "meet and confer" conference, a statutory written response of "no documents" and a statement of how the documents were disposed of would have sufficed, along with any appropriate privilege log. Instead, a vitriolic and vituperative argument is made that this Court deny Respondent his due process rights. Movants cite no authority to support such a departure from applicable constitutional, procedural and other rights of the Respondent. Movants do not advise the Court that relevant written church scriptures provide that Respondent has no rights at all, because he impedes the church's intended takeover of the heads of government, business and the media - and the subsequent extermination of more than 2 ½%, or 650 million of the planet's population (644 million people more than Hitler exterminated in his concentration camps). See generally, L.Ron Hubbard, Science of Survival, pp.39, 88-90,115-116,131(13th.printing). At the July 16, 2001, Status Conference herein, the Court accepted Respondent's due process submissions. These concerned the underlying Berry, Pattinson and Jeavons cases, amazingly alleged to have been filed without any factual or legal merit. Plaintiffs in those cases had also been denied the opportunity of meaningful discovery. Neither case had involved any form of determination upon the factual and legal merits of the allegations now charged to have been frivolously filed. There is a long line of analogous legal malpractice authorities holding in favor of the "case within a case" litigation of such matters. In essence, Respondent has to be afforded a reasonable opportunity, in all of the circumstances herein, to take the discovery, and to present the evidence that establishes that the allegations in the underlying Berry, Pattinson and Jeavons cases were asserted in good objective and subjective faith, factually and legally, and in connection with evidence reasonably likely to be developed through discovery. App.F, Exhs.1-5.Accordingly, as happens in the case within a case presentation of proof, Respondent has and must be afforded the opportunity to present the cases that would have been presented in the underlying but largely voluntarily dismissed cases. The cases were dismissed after Respondent was overwhelmed by Scientology's litigation juggernaut of expensive lawyers flown in from the East Coast. However, not before the same cases survived demurrers, SLAPP suit motions, nine months of litigation, massive discovery by Scientology and $100,000 in settlements. Movants appear perturbed that they and their clients are not able to participate in these proceedings in their own inimitable obsrtuctionist manner. However, Movants must be deemed to have realized that when they repeatedly and improperly instigated, demanded and assisted the now defunct Hurtado proceeding which actually initiated the State Bar matter now being partially prosecuted. Scientology is desperate to obtain some, nay any, criticism of Respondent in for the strategic purpose of hanging it around his neck in every courtroom in which he might potentially appear. However, certain of the Movants and their clients actively engaged in the underlying seven years of continuous criminal, civil and unethical misconduct intentionally directed against Respondent. That misconduct permeates, pollutes and poisons all aspects of the intertwined, concurrent and underlying Berry, Cipriano, Barton, Miscavige (Moxon, Abelson & Ingram), Pattinson and Jeavons cases. " "Tis strange but true; for truth is always strange, Stranger than fiction." Byron, Don Juan. III. ARGUMENT A. MOVANTS MAKE MATERIAL MISREPRESENTATIONS HEREIN Page 1 lines 21-23 of each of the motions state "the Subpoena is invalid…as it was improperly signed by Respondent…" These representations are repeated on subsequent pages of each of the motions: Moxon & Kobrin, p.5: 4-8; Lenske, p.4: 23-27; Gerner, p. 4:18-22; Abelson, p.4: 25-5:2. Certain of the attorneys then compound their express misrepresentations to the Court with testimony that Respondent signed the subpoenas served herein (Gerner Decl. para.2, p.1: 11-12; Lenske Decl. para.2, p: 1:9-10; Kobrin Decl. para.2, p.1: 11-12). Movant's Exhibit A dramatically illustrates what is a blatant and obviously intentional misrepresentation, by these six California attorneys, to the California State Bar Court. Page one of Exhibit A is a copy of one of the SDTs at issue. For present purposes, all are identical in this regard. At the bottom of page one is the signature of the issuing State Bar Clerk (within the State Bar seal on the original). At the bottom of page two, in almost the same position, is the signature of the Respondent and "server." There is zero degree of similarity between the two signatures. // Such blatant and material misrepresentations to the Court are not new to certain of the Movants. Only last month, the Federal Bankruptcy Court took the trial in Barton v. Berry off calendar after receiving a deluge of the most material of misrepresentations from Moxon & Kobrin, on matters concerning the same alleged facts that are the basis of Count Three of the State Bar's Notice of Disciplinary Charges herein .On August 14, 2001, the usually understated Federal Court scathingly denied the Moxon & Kobrin/Glenn Barton motion for summary judgment, "because of inaccuracies in the foregoing allegations". The State Bar herein has parroted certain of those allegations herein. Indeed, the very next day, August 15, 2001,the State Bar issued interrogatories and requests for admission. They were narrowly tailored to the sole Jane Scott Account issue that the Federal Court retained in the Scientology/ Barton case, even though incapable of affirmative proof. Discovery has closed in the Scientology/Barton v. Berry case Federal Court action but has just opened in the Scientology/State Bar v. Berry case! In addition, the Federal Court unilaterally dismissed almost the entirety of the Scientology/Barton v. Berry case, except for the narrow and factual question that Scientology/State Bar sought discovery upon the very next day. Respondent will formally and subsequently address this Court on those and related 'unusual' matters now requiring unusual enquiry. B. MOVANTS HAVE MISUSED THE DISCOVERY PROCESS AND THEIR MOTIONS MUST BE DENIED The Rules of Procedure Rule 180 provides that the Civil Discovery Act (C.C.P.§§ 2016 -2036 applies in these proceedings, except as modified by the Rules of Procedure. In that regard, each of the final definitions and instructions in Respondent's subpoenas expressly "directed " Movants to the "meet and confer" provisions of Rule 185 and C.C.P.2023 (9). (i.e., Gerner SDT, p.5: 26, L). Movants object to, and ignore, that paragraph in each and every subpoena. (i.e., Gerner SDT, p.7: 4-12.) However, as a threshold and dispositive matter herein, that is absolutely fatal to each of the motions at bar. Accordingly, and for this reason alone, the pending motions must be denied as a matter of law and various additional sanctions imposed. "When an inspection of documents, tangible things or places has been demanded, the party to whom the demand has been directed, and any other party or affected person or organization may promptly move for a protective order. This motion shall be accompanied by a declaration stating facts showing a reasonable and good faith attempt at an informal resolution of each issue presented by the motion…" C.C.P.§ 2031(e). emphasis added "Misuses of the discovery process include, but are not limited to, the following… Failing to confer in person, by telephone, or by letter with an opposing party or attorney in a reasonable and good faith attempt to resolve informally any dispute involving discovery, if the section governing a particular discovery motion requires the filing of a declaration stating facts showing that such an attempt has been made. Notwithstanding the outcome of a particular discovery motion, the court shall impose a monetary sanction ordering that any party or attorney who fails to confer as required pay the reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees, incurred by anyone as a result of that conduct." C.C.P.§2023 (a)(9). emphasis added Additionally, C.C.P.§ 2023 (b) provides for the imposition of various additional sanctions including terminating ("doomsday") sanctions, issue and preclusionary sanctions. In the case at bar, the Court is requested to issue orders regulating Movant's conduct at deposition which should include a ruling that the crime fraud exception precludes any claims of attorney-client privilege by Movants herein at their later depositions, and that privacy may not be asserted as a deposition objection by those persons, just as certain of the Movants herein prevailed upon Hon. Alexander Williams, III, to rule in the underlying Berry litigation.App.H, Ex.1-7; App.M, Ex.1. In addition to expressly reminding Movants of the mandatory "meet and confer " requirements, and expecting delays in production and inspection caused by the "meet and confer" requirements, Respondent also foreshadowed scheduling changes (i.e., Gerner SDT, p.2: 12-14.) However, Movants made none of the mandatory attempts to "meet and confer" and have also failed to file the mandatory "meet and confer" declaration (Berry Decl.para.12). For this reason alone, the statute mandates this Court to deny the motions at bar and to impose the sanctions provided by statute, except as otherwise provided by Rule of Procedure 186. The Court has no discretion in this regard. The burden of initiation was on the Movant's. Volkenwagenwerk Aktienesellshaft v. Superior Court, (1998) 122 Cal.App.3d 326,330.The Court must deny Movants motion. It acts in excess of jurisdiction to do otherwise. Townsend v. Superior Court, (1998) 61 Cal.App.4th. 1431, Volkenwagenwerk Aktienesellshaft v. Superior Court, (1998) 122 Cal.App.3d 326,328-329. C. THE SUBPEONAS ARE VALID AND WERE PROPERLY SERVED Movants violate professional canons, with their submissions, and material omissions, regarding the issuance and service of the subject subpoenas. They raise the specter of attorneys avoiding service. The SDTs at bar each expressly stated that they were being "propounded, inter alia, pursuant to C.C.P.§§ 94,1011 (a) - 1013 (a), 1987.3, 2016 to 2031 (specifically § 2020 (d), Cal. Evidence Code § 1560 (e) and Rules 151 to 187 of the Rules of Procedure of the State Bar of California.) (Movant's Exhibit A, p.2: 5-8). Moreover, Movant Gerner, representing both himself and all of the other Movants at bar, expressly holds himself out as a State Bar Court specialist and "ethics" advisor. (Gerner Decl. para.3). Notwithstanding this, Movants ignore, materially omit and blatantly misrepresent the applicable law. Rules of Procedure 151 (a) and 152 provide, inter alia, that ". . . any party may issue subpoenas" (emphasis added) for both discovery and trial purposes. Indeed, Respondent researched this issue before proceeding with discovery herein (Berry Decl. 4). Notwithstanding, out of an abundance of caution, and contrary to Movants express misrepresentations to this Court, each of the SDT's at bar was obtained from the clerk (Rule 151(c)) and duly signed by the Clerk of the State Bar Court (Berry Decl.5). Furthermore, C.C.P.§ 1987 (a) provides, in pertinent part, that "the service may be made by any person." Emphasis added. Respondent did not personally sign any of the relevant SDTs.See generally, Respondent's Motion For Reconsideration and/or Stay Filed August 30, 2001. Each of the Movants are [currently] active members of the California State Bar (Gerner, Kobrin, Paquette, Abelson, and Lenske Declarations 1). Each of the Movants is required to "maintain" their "current office address and telephone number… on the official membership records of the State Bar" (B&P Code § 6002.1(a)(1)) Respondent served the SDTs upon Movants at their addresses "on the official membership records of the State Bar. Movants have not denied that the addresses served are their "office addresses" for State Bar purposes. Moreover, the law does not contemplate the prospect that attorneys will avoid service of process, and so obstruct or needlessly increase the cost of proceedings. They are "officers of the court" (See generally, Rule of Procedure 6002.1 (c)). Method and Place of Service of Notice on Attorney or Party: The service may be personal, by delivery to the party or attorney on whom the service is required to be made, or it may be as follows: (a) If upon an attorney, service may be made at the attorney's office, by leaving the notice or other papers in an envelope clearly labeled to identify the attorney being served, with a receptionist or with a person having charge thereof. When there is no person in the office with whom the notice or papers may be left for purposes of this subsection at the time service is to be affected, service may be made by leaving them between the hours of nine in the morning and five in the afternoon in a conspicuous place in the office…" (C.C.P. Section 1011(a)). Each of the SDT's were served in the requisite envelope. A copy of each "clearly labeled" "envelope" is attached to each SDT as Exhibit A. Each of the SDT's have proper proofs of service attached. Gerner's SDT was left upon the desk of his receptionist. A secretary confirmed the location was that of Mr. Gerner and that the receptionist's location also was Mr. Gerner's. "Leave it on the receptionist's desk," she said. Donald Wager, Esq., said he was "expecting" the SDT and also confirmed that Mr. Gerner's office was proximate, but that Mr. Gerner was out of the office. The subpoena was left as permitted by CCP § 1011(a). Mr. Gerner confirms this, "I am informed and believe that it [the SDT] was left at the reception at my 10100 Santa Monica Boulevard office" (Gerner Decl. 3 (1:12-13)). Similarly, Sherman D. Lenske, Esq., acknowledges that the SDT was left with his receptionist (Lenske Decl. 2 (1:10-11)). Indeed, his receptionist, Ms. Penny Ward, stated that Mr. Lenske would not be available and she was asked to immediately bring the delivered envelope to his attention. The Church of Scientology, as a matter of policy and practice, actively avoids service of process. App.Ex.4.In 1977 the FBI targeted the Washington, DC and Los Angeles offices of the Church of Scientology. They seized documents confirming that the church had, and was, engaged in the largest ever known criminal infiltration of the United States government. Nine senior scientology executives were convicted and jailed, including then number two church official Mary Sue Hubbard.App.K, Ex.2, 3.United States v. Hubbard, (1979) 474 F.Supp.64; Movant Moxon & Kobrin's Kendrick L. Moxon was named as an unindicted co-conspirator for attempted obstruction of justice in connection with his provision of fake and forged handwriting exemplars to the investigating FBI. App.I, Ex.13.It was just after these very same events that Sherman D. Lenske became personal attorney to the head of the church, L. Ron Hubbard, and set about preparing for Hubbard's death (with several different wills and trusts) as well as preparing for Miscavige's (the current leader of scientology) seizure of power and takeover. Church of Spiritual Technology v. United States, (1992) U.S.Cl.Ct. 713. In 1982, Captain David Miscavige ('DM"), now "ecclesiastical" leader of the church, headed a group of scientologists and lawyers in a project to ensure that law enforcement raids would never again implicate the church in criminal conduct. This project was named Mission Corporate Category Sort-Out ("MCCS") At the same time, Church of Scientology of California and the Guardian's Office ("GO") was replaced by Church of Scientology International and the Office of Special Affairs ("OSA"). In essence, the plan was to insulate the church's criminal activities behind the attorney-client privilege. OSA would hire and pay attorneys who would hire and pay private investigators .OSA International ("OSA INT") has its principal offices at 6331 Hollywood Boulevard, Los Angeles, in the Hollywood Guaranty Building. It is also officed in Clearwater, FL. Lawyers Moxon, Kobrin, Paquette, Drescher and Abelson actually work in the offices of OSA at the Hollywood Guaranty Building (Berry Decl. 9) However, Abelson and Drescher also maintain mail drops, which are their designated offices for State Bar Act (B & P Code § 6002.1(a)(1). Abelson expressly acknowledges receipt of the SDT at his "mailing address" listed with the State Bar as his State Bar Act section 6002.1(a) office. As explained above, Moxon & Kobrin maintain an "official" office "front", for security and State Bar Act section 6002.1(a) purposes. They take depositions there and the receptionist receives their visitors and mail. Ms. Kobrin testifies herein that the SDT was received at the Moxon & Kobrin address for State Bar Act section 6002.1(a) purposes by "[t] he receptionist" (Kobrin Decl.2 (1:9-11)). Significantly, and contrary to the implicit arguments of the Movants, CCP § 10011(a) does not require that the "receptionist or person having charge thereof" be expressly "authorized" to accept service. Section 1011(a) only requires the document being served to be "left…with…a person…or…in a conspicuous place in the office." Clearly, the SDTs were brought to the attention of the Movants consistent with the purpose of service, which is to provide notice. The Movants have appeared with motions to quash. Significantly and fatally, there has been no compliance whatsoever with the provisions of C.C.P.§2031 (f)-(k). For example, C.C.P § 2031 (f) (3) required Movants to include a privilege log with their 20 day response under C.C.P. § 2031 (h). No extension of time was sought under C.C.P.2031 (i). Consequently, Movants have waived "any objection to the demand, including one based on privilege or on the protection of work product under Section 2018 and they cannot make the requisite showing for relief from their default (C.C.P. § 2031(k)). D. MOVANTS UNTIMELY MOTIONS MUST BE DENIED Rule of Procedure 10 provides that "the rules in Title II [Rules 10 - 711] govern the procedure in all State Bar Court proceedings…," thus those rules govern this proceeding. Rule 155(a) "governs all discovery and trial subpoenas" including those at bar. Rule 155 (d)(1) further provides that " [w] ithin five (5) court days after service of a subpoena under this rule, any person or entity served with the subpoena may file a motion with the State Bar Court to quash the subpoena." It is undisputed that each of the SDTs was served, and that the five court day period to move to quash expired, as set forth on Exhibit A: No extensions of time have either been requested or filed for (Berry Decl.12). However, requests for extensions and/or continuances were expressly contemplated by Respondent's. SDTs (Exhibit A (p.2: 13-15)). E.SERIOUS CRIME AND FRAUD IS BEING DIRECTED AT RESPONDENT. There is overwhelming evidence that a large, long, convulated criminal and fraudulent conspiracy is being perpetrated against Respondent: Temporary App.; App., pp 4:8 - 12:18,Ex.17; App.B, Ex.2&3;App.C, Ex.B; App.D, Exs.1-8, 11-33,37-46,49-50.The CSI v.

Respondent had survived the long scientology litigation learning curve and knew too much.App.F, Ex.C 40-50,147-151.Respondent also had to be eliminated ("destroyed") as an available legal recourse for the Church's "enemies" and litigation "targets". App.D, 34-36.The evidence is that OSA instructed Bowles & Moxon/Moxon & Kobrin to retain private investigator Ingram to investigate Respondent.App.D, Exs.8, 11,12,26.OSA's investigators employ the Church's "Fair Game Policies and Practices" and all manner of illegal activity.App.F, Ex.3, 62-146;App.I, Ex.8; App.K, Ex.4; App.L, Ex.25A; App.M, Exs.2-3.The Church keeps evidence of its criminal activities in Red Boxes.App.F, Ex.C, 77-146;App.C, Ex.C; App.E, Exs.A&B; App.I, Exs.1-3; App.I, Exs.1-7; App.M, Exs.2-3.This investigation led directly to the First Cipriano Declaration.App.D, Ex.1.It was the basis of the Berry v. Cipriano /Barton /Miscavige (Moxon/Abelson/Ingram) consolidated lawsuits.App.F, Exs.1-3.Count Ten of the Notice of Charges herein alleges that this consolidated lawsuit was vexatious and frivolous! Yet, the defamatory publications continue forever on the Internet. There is testimony that the "investigation" engaged in the obstruction of justice, extortion, subornation of perjury, solicitation of clients, blackmail, bribery, business relationship with clients, non-waivable conflicts of interest, paying for perjury, false criminal complaints, false state bar complaints, etc., etc., etc.Temp.App.AA; App.A; App.B; App.C, Ex.B; App.D, Exs.17-21, 27, 32-33.For example, the First Cipriano Declaration was perjury and obstruction of justice obtained through extortion.App.A; App.B, Exs.1-3; App.D, Exs.2, 3.Moxon, Abelson and OSA have distributed the defamatory statements as alleged in the Berry consolidated defamation case.App.A, p.4: 8-12:18,Ex.17; App., Ex.8-12, App.F, Exs.1, 2,3 155- 237.The documentary Evidence establishes the role of Moxon, Kobrin, Paquette, Abelson, Drescher, Byrnes, Wager and Gerner in the seven year convoluted octopus- like conspiracy of fraud and crime upon the Respondent and the Courts before which he and his clients properly sought redress for the wrongs the Church, OSA and these Movant lawyers had perpetrated.App.A, Exs.1-17; App.B, Exs.1-3; App.C, Ex.B; App.D, Exs.5-29, 31-33,37-46,49-50;App.F, Exs.1-3; App.G, Ex.3; App.J, Ex. [5A]-7(F.R.Civ.P.Rule 60(b) Motion and Exhibits);App.L,Exs.1-11B,14A,14B. Amazingly, this Church and its lawyers have regularly engaged in this incredible litany of crime: App.C, Ex.C; App.D, Ex.47; App.I, Exs.1-3, 10-12;App.K, Ex.1-7; App.L, Exs.1-7, 25A;App.M, Ex.2, 3. Even Federal Judges have complained of Scientology harassment in cases involving Moxon and his cohorts.App.D, Ex.2 (attached press report). This is not an isolated event. American Lawyer, Scientology's War Against The Judges, 1976.Indeed, judicial misconduct occurred in the underlying consolidated Berry cases.App.G, Ex.7.With the newly acquired evidence, the matter is being pursued. F. MOVANTS HAVE WAIVED THEIR ATTORNEY CLIENT PRIVILEGE CLAIMS. Any attorney work product claims have been waived for a number of reasons. Judge Lachs opined that the crime-fraud exception applied to any attorney client privilege claims by the Movants because of the conduct engaged in and the inter-locking relationships between the conduct of the culpable counsel. Lodged Wager Depo.35: 3-5 -134:20-135:15. The Hurtado case and the Berry v. Cipriano cases are intertwined. See generally, section G below and TempApp.AA. In addition, Movants have totally and fatally failed to provide a 20-day written response and privilege log as mandated by C.C.P.§ 2031 (f) -(k). No extensions of time were requested. Berry Decl.12. Indeed, C.C.P.2031 (k) specifically provides that: "if a party to whom an inspection demand has been directed fails to serve a timely response to it, that party waives any objection to the demand, including one based on privilege or on the protection for Work Product under Section 2018." Emphasis added. Moreover, Cipriano has waived his attorney-client privilege. He implicitly did that in connection with App.B, Exs.1-3.Furthermore, he testified for two days in deposition and was cross-examined by Movants Moxon and Paquette.See generally, App.A, Exs.1-11.Cipriano's waiver cannot be clearer and thus abrogates Movants specious and baseless attorney-client privilege claims. G. MOVANTS HAVE WAIVED THEIR ATTORNEY WORK PRODUCT CLAIMS. As explained in the preceding subsections, Movants' have fatally failed to comply with the mandatory procedural pre-requisites to their motions. However, they have also waived their attorney work product objections for a further reason. Applicable law provides that the attorney client and work product privileges are waived by disclosure and production. The important Ingram Investigations file has already been produced by Moxon's co-counsel in the Berry cases, Gary Soter, Esq.App.K, Exs.8, 9.Berry Decl.para.21. H.THE SUBPOENAS SEEK PERMISSIBLE DISCOVERY. The attached Berry declaration provides the requisite detail as to why the discovery sought is relevant, necessary and adequately specific and detailed. Berry Decl. 6,13-18. Moreover, the purpose of the mandatory "meet and confer" provisions are to require attempted pre-filing informal resolution of the complaints and arguments that Movants address for the very first time by their pending motion instead of in accord with the provisions described in subsection B above. If they had done so then many of the alleged issues, however bogus, could have been worked out. Berry Decl.12.For example, the Lenske claims run counter to the findings of the United States Claims Court in Church of Spiritual Technology v. United States, (1992) 26 Cl.Ct.713.According to that decision, Lenske holds a pivotal position within CST and the Church generally. He has enormous tax and fiduciary responsibilities. They appear to have been breached, at least in relation to the conduct outlined in Temp.App.AA, App.A-C. Movant's reliance on Calcor Space Facility v. Superior Court, (1997) 53 Cal.App.216, 61 Cal.Rptr.2d 567, is misplaced. First, it is factually distinguishable. The Calcor SDT referred to "all gun mounts" which were a major portion of the Rockwell Division business. The instant SDT is limited to documents involving Respondent, his defined associates and other identified persons. The documents are "described with reasonable particularity". A "meet and confer" could have resolved many or all of Movant's express issues. Furthermore, the "definitions" section is not "abusive" in the Calcor sense. There the court held that the particular definitions section was, in context, abusive." The statute does not expressly prohibit the practice of expanding on categories in this manner." Id.223. In any event, this court need not reach Movants legal arguments at all. In the absence of timely filing their motion, after meeting and conferring, providing a timely 20 day response and privilege log, Movants have waived any right to even be proceeding in the manner herein or at all herein. // // // I. THE CRIME FRAUD EXCEPTION TO THE ATTORNEY CLIENT PRIVILEGE APPLIES. The crime fraud exception is set forth in section 956 of the Evidence Code: "There is no privilege under this article if the services of the lawyer were sought or obtained to enable or aid anyone to commit or plan to commit a crime or a fraud." Nowell v. Superior Court, (1963) 223 Cal App.2d 652,658,36 Cal.Rptr.21. In other words, the privilege is a shield and not a sword. The privilege cannot be perverted so as to make it safe to seek legal assistance to perpetrate a crime or fraud, as happened here.Temp.App.AA, App.A, B, C, etc. For example, the identity of persons who have knowledge of relevant facts and who may be potential witnesses are outside the scope of both the attorney-client and work product privilges. Furthermore, it does not permit defense counsel to secrete physical evidence which his or her client has given to him or her. People v. Lee, (1970) 3 Cal.App.3d 514,524,83 Cal.Rptr.715; People v. Superior Court (Fairbank), (1987) 192 Cal.App.3d 32,34,237 Cal.Rptr.158. The client's intent is pivotal to the crime fraud exception. The attorney does not have to be aware of the planned fraud. Freedom Trust v. Chubb Group of Insurance Companies (1999 C.D.Ca.) 38 F.Supp.2d 1170,1171.The crime fraud exception merely requires a prima facie showing that the lawyer's services were sought and obtained to enable or aid someone in committing or planning to commit a crime or fraud. State Farm Fire and Casualty Co. v. Superior Court, (1997) 54 Cal.App.4th 625,645; citing BP Alaska Exploration, Inc. v. Superior Court, (1988) 199 Cal.App.3d 1240,1262.A prima facie showing is one which will suffice for proof of a particular fact unless contradicted and overcome by other evidence. In other words, evidence from which reasonable inferences can be drawn to establish the fact asserted, i.e., the fraud. BP Alaska.199 Cal.App.3d at 1240."Evidence Code 956 does not require a completed crime or fraud. It applies to attorney communications sought to enable the client to plan to commit a fraud, whether successful or not." BP Alaska, 199 Cal.App.3d at 1263.The exception is applied in a variety of ways. For example, in BP Alaska, BP Alaska Exploration ("BPAE") asked both its in-house counsel and its outside counsel to assist in an investigation to respond to a letter from Nahama & Weagant Company ("NAWC") asking why Nahama had been cut out of an exploration agreement. NAWC filed suit and propounded discovery to BPAE regarding it's investigation of NAWC's claim, including the reports and communications between BPAE and its counsel. NAWC argued that these attorney-client communications were used in the preparation of letters sent to NAWC which contained misrepresentations. The Court of Appeal concluded that NAWC had made a prima facie showing that BP Alaska sought its attorney's services to assist in the commission or planning of a fraud. Here, just as in BP Alaska, the record contains prima facie evidence that the Church of Scientology, and /or its agents, retained the services of Moxon & Kobrin, Eugene Ingram, Donald Wager, William Drescher, Elliott Abelson, Michael Gerner, David Chodos/Simke Chodos, Thomas Byrnes and others as part of Scientology's continuing campaign to manufacture false statements to use against Respondent to destroy him, both personally and professionally.

IV.CONCLUSION. For all of the foregoing reasons, and in the interests and furtherance of justice, the Court must deny the pending motions and order the requested inspection and production of documents to immediately proceed in accordance with the contents of the SDTs served on the Movants herein. Dated: August 31,2001 Respectfully Submitted, ___________________________ GRAHAM E. BERRY DECLARATION OF GRAHAM E. BERRY I, Graham E. Berry, declare and state as follows: 1. I am an attorney at law licensed to practice law before all of the courts of the States of California and New York, the State of New South Wales in the Commonwealth of Australia and the Dominion of New Zealand. I have personal knowledge of the facts set forth herein, and if called upon, would so testify thereto. 2. This declaration is filed in connection with my opposition to the pending eight motions to quash service of subpoenas duces tecums herein. 3. (A) I have filed Appendices of Trial Exhibits marked A-M and Temporary Appendix AA.I have also lodged the original SDTs and a copy of the Wager deposition transcript in which he admits (in essence) to paying for testimony, etc. The filing of trial exhibits was discussed in the first Status Conference herein. Because I cannot afford unnecessary (even any) expense, I can only file these once .The filing and hearing dates on the Movants motioned required more haste and a few errors in connection with the compilation of trial exhibits. Also, because of the discovery dates, trial dates, motions to quash, etc. I have been unable to place those exhibits in color-coded three ring binders as I had intended. Movants Moxon & Kobrin continue to use the litigation process to harass and pre-occupy me in Barton v. Berry and in Jeavons v. Church of Scientology International. Most recently, such conduct continued yesterday. (B) For example, yesterday, I wrote the following letter to Movants Moxon, Kobrin and Paquette. GRAHAM E. BERRY 3384 McLaughlin Avenue Los Angeles, CA 90066 Phone/Fax: (310) 745-3771 (Call First for Fax) grahameb@aol.com August 29, 2001 By Facsimile (213) 487-5385 Ava M. Paquette, Esq. Moxon & Kobrin 3055 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 900 Los Angeles, CA 90010 Re: Jeavons v. CSI Judgment Debtor Examination(s). Dear Ms.Paquette: This will confirm personal service, upon you, of a deposition subpoena and $45.00 attendance fee, in the matter of State Bar v. Berry. You responded: "Is this for my deposition? Why did I expect this?" You went on to add that you had done nothing wrong. I said if you seriously believe that you should be going back to law school. I said it was a fact that you had engaged in wrongful conduct and I was seeking Federal intervention and filing complaints in the other jurisdictions the wrongdoing attorneys are admitted. You said you would tell your attorney I had threatened you. I told you I had not. The facts were the facts. You then said I was in a lot of trouble with the State Bar and that I would be in even more if I did not proceed with the Judgment Debtors examination. I told you that I would be moving to vacate the underlying cases. You said I could not. I said that the State Bar Court, after hearing what had occurred and of my inability to pay sanctions, had suggested I move to vacate the underlying judgments and orders. You denied that had or would happen. The supervising judge did so suggest it! I am so moving. The judgment debtor exam was focused on whether I had received financial assistance from your antagonists such as the German government (and whether I was to go back and provide further advice), Bob Minton, Stacy Brooks, Michael Pattinson and Jesse Prince. Who had approved my public assistance, etc? Indeed, you said that your attorney had told you I had filed 5,000 different documents with the State Bar. You questioned me on how I could afford to defend myself before the State Bar and who had loaned me money so I could provide copies of exhibits to the State Bar. Finally, at 2-30pm, when you could no longer interfere with the preparation of my opposition to your State Bar motion to quash, etc. you confidently and smirking stated that your attorney would quash the deposition subpoena served on you personally that morning. Is there some concealed and corrupt basis for such confidence in what the State Bar and State Bar Court will do or will not do at your attorney's behest? Certainly, the mounting circumstantial evidence suggests that .Not only to myself but to the tens of thousands of people who are following these proceedings via the Internet. Very truly yours, Graham E. Berry (c) Yesterday, at this judgment debtor examination, Ms.Kobrin also advised me that she was going to seek the turnover of my domain names scientologylitigation.com, org and .net. Furthermore, that she would be seizing my few remaining household accessories including posters, ornaments, art, etc.all within the bankruptcy exemption. Last week, despite Ms.Kobrin's continuing attacks upon me in bankruptcy court, my bankruptcy was discharged. Even if I successfully oppose her efforts to seize my last remaining possessions and to try and force me into the ranks of street-living homeless, she will have succeeded as a matter of Fair Game-forcing me to divert attention, time and resources. The Scientologists also define this as Developed Traffic or Dev-T. It could be loosely described as creating unnecessary but burdensome work for others to do. (d) In January this year, Ms.Kobrin seized my ailing old vehicle in connection with the unpaid sanctions at issue herein. She represented to the court, under oath, that it was worth approx.$8,300.Blue book value was only $1,900.The vehicle was sold for $900.00.The Church received no proceeds but that was not the purpose of the seizure and is not the purpose of Fair Game. 4.I did not personally any of the SDTs at issue herein. After the Initial Status Conference herein, on July 16,2001, I enquired of both Ms.Goldade and the Clerk's Office of my right to serve discovery as a party on inactive status. They each told me to check the rules. I checked the rules. Specifically, I noted the provisions of Rules 151 and 152. 5.In accordance with the provisions of Rule 152(c), I requested the State Bar Court's office in San Francisco to send me a set of signed subpoenas for me to issue herein. In addition, I personally obtained further supplies of duly signed Subpoenas Duces Tecums and appearance only subpoenas from the State Bar Court's office in Los Angeles. Samples of such originals are attached hereto as Exhibits C and D. After service, I signed the proofs of service. A sample copy of that proof of service is attached hereto as Exhibit D.There is no resemblance between the signatures on the face of the subpoenas and the proofs of service. I have 'lodged' the original copies of the SDTs with this Court. 6.If unable to proceed with the service of discovery herein, my constitutional rights of due process and equal protection herein will be prejudiced and I will be unable to properly present a defense at trial herein. In the each of the relevant underlying cases, either my clients of myself were effectively and improperly denied discovery. 7.I can conceive of no proper or explicable basis for the moving third party's material misrepresentations to the Court, that I personally signed the eight Subpoena Duces Tecum in connection with the eight pending motions to quash and for protective orders. 8.At the August 20,2001 Status Conference herein I advised the Court that I did not personally sign the subpoenas at issue and that such was readily apparent from a comparison of the face of the subpoenas and the proofs of service. At the Status Conference I advised the Court I would file one opposition memorandum, not to exceed 30 pages, to the pending different motions to quash. 9.It is very difficult to personally serve certain of the Movant's. That is why I took the opportunity to personally serve Ava Paquette when she took yet another Judgment Debtor examination of me yesterday. Over the past 26 months, Moxon & Kobrin have participated in approx. 19 days of deposition, Rule 2001 and Judgment Debtor examinations. They have always blocked all my discovery, and that of certain clients, even though they were to be parties in certain of the underlying cases. Indeed, there is documentation that attorney Paquette has actively avoided service.App.G, Ex.3, ex. E, G.The Church of Scientology Office of Special Affairs, where the actual offices of Moxon, Kobrin, Paquette, Drescher and Abelson are located, have written policies intended to avoid the service of process or writs.App.G, Ex.4. 10.Movants claim that the definitions and instructions section of the SDTs is too long and the documents requested too expansive. Respondent refers the Court to Appendix G, Ex.1.It was propounded upon Respondent in the underlying Berry consolidated cases. It was one of thousands of interrogatories and document demands that many of the Movants used to overwhelm me into a discovery default there. It is little different to the SDT that Movants now seek to quash. Surely, sauce for the goose should be sauce for the gander? 11.In preparing Attachment A, I researched the applicable code and rule provisions and specified them in the request. Thus, I put the Movants on actual notice of the "meet and confer", written response, privilege log and other requirements. I anticipated a lengthy meet and confer process and provided for the dates to be extended. See SDT, Attachment A, page 2,lines 1-15. 12.Movants never requested a Meet and Confer meeting at all or by any means. Movants have not filed any written response or privilege logs as required by CCP section 2031 (f)-(k). They made no requests for extensions of time even though I anticipated such and would have extended such professional courtesy. Had a "meet and confer" process occurred I am sure we could have resolved many of Movants stated objections as to categories and specific documents being sought. If they did not have documents at all, relating to particular categories or to particular people, the process would have been simple: "no responsive documents." In this way, court intervention would not have been necessary or would have been more limited. However, it would have been less painful, time-consuming and expensive for me. That is contrary to OSA's Fair Game Policies and Practises.Appendix F, Ex.3, para.77-146, pp.179 (46:2)- 211(78:2)."The purpose of the [Law] suit is to harass and discourage rather than to win..." One could substitute [State Bar Complaint/State Bar Court motion]. App., Ex.3, para.86, p.183 (50:13-25). 13.It is not widely known that the Church of Scientology has its own lexicon. They call non-scientologists "wogs" and they know this court as a "Wog" court. They re-define many "Wog" words. They have their own dictionary's setting forth their own special meanings. In my extensive litigation experience with the scientology enterprise, I have found that they do not respond to discovery requests that are not sufficiently specific or consistent with their own lexicon. For that reason I added, as I have before, Definition B.It uses scientology terms for the documents sought. The Movants claim that is nonsense. That is a lie. Appendix E, Exhibit A proves it. Appendix A is the examination under oath of a former OSA intelligence operative. It is called the Intelligence Officers Hat Pack. It contains his job description, training, practices and policies. These include: App.E, Ex.6 [the OSA Org Board]; Ex.7 [How to steal other peoples frequent flyer miles and invest. communications]; Ex.10 [Volunteer Minister/Investigations Officer training manual, including espionage, covert ops, noisy investigations, security infiltration, on waging war, BATTLE TATICS (p.138), BLACK PROPAGANDA (p.145), On War (p.149),]. Ex.11 is the document that describes how the volunteer minister/investigation officers are going to handle "attackers" and how their productivity/success/failure statistics will be calculated for job performance and punishment purposes.Ex.12 is an 'Invest Drill' or set of staff instructions regarding the employment of private investigators through OSA lawyers.Ex.12 and 13 are two OSA investigation check lists. Ex.15 is the Church of Scientology/OSA/Moxon & Kobrin "Manual of Justice." Pages 183 and 184 describe the purpose of scientology investigations: " when we need someone haunted we investigate." Page 186 describes the punishment of church critics who have been driven into bankruptcy, suicide and mysterious Death.Ex.16 is a Church of Scientology form for the preparation of a BATTLEPLAN. p.189.Ex.17, p.191 states that the church's "attackers" have "appointed {the Church] their executioners."Ex.17, p.185 defines Black Propaganda. The seven-year campaign to defame, discredit and destroy Respondent relied heavily upon Black Propaganda. For example, Abelson's letter to my parents.App.A, Ex.17.The Esquire Magazine article, App., Ex.30.The CAN Reform Group publication [Barton, Chait, Shaw], App., Ex.31. Moxon's Declaration and the OSA letter to Hon. David Caygil.App.D, Ex.26, 26A, 26B.The history detailed in App., Ex.3, para.152 (p.235)-para.237 (p.253). Page 204/205 describes how the Intelligence files are to be kept.Ex.18, p.213, describes how to engage in Black Propaganda of critics: " In modern times there is no such check on Black Propaganda." Ex.17, p.217 describes the process of Dead Agenting critics. OSA, Moxon, Kobrin, Paquette, Wager, Abelson, et al.engaged in this Hubbard technology against Respondent.App.F, Ex.3, 152-137(p.235-253). See also page 222-225.On page 223: "PR IS OVERT, INTELLIGENCE IS COVERT." Page 227 further describes "Intelligence Actions." On page 230 TARGETS, DEFENSE mandates "obliterating" all non-scientologists and taking over the news media, key political figures, international finance, etc. See page 231.Pages 233-235 further deal with BATTLE TACTICS: " one cuts off…funds, connections…he raids and harasses." Pages 236-238 describe how the Church's Public Investigations Section is to operate. Pages 243 to 317 deal with the handling of Suppressive Persons such as myself and lists of Church of Scientology enemies (out of date). Since the death of Hubbard the scientology enterprise cannot change any of these policies. Indeed, these forgoing exhibits from App. A, Ex. were issued less than ten years to Frank Oliver. He will be designated as an expert witness in connection with these Intelligence Activities by certain of the Movants, against me and in connection with the allegations of Moxon's involvement in church related criminal conduct that concern the Pattinson case allegations herein. Jesse Prince is also expected to testify to relevant matters set forth in App.Ex.6 and 7, App., Ex.2, 3, and also an attempted attorney midnight visit to a presiding judge in a Los Angeles Federal Court case. This is relevant to the operative allegations in the Pattinson cases that are part of Count Ten herein. 14.Movants make blanket objections to the persons identified in the SDTs.However, these are primarily the people who were listed in underlying pleadings and discovery responses as having been contacted by private investigators, certain of Movants, other church investigators, etc. in connection with the obtaining and dissemination of the underlying defamations in the Berry cases, the allegations in the Pattinson and Jeavons cases, the obstruction of justice that occurred during the underlying cases. Many of the Movants blocked and obstructed the same discovery there as part of the seven-year campaign I describe and evidence in Temporary Exhibit AA.Most of the Appendix D exhibits will be ultimately cross-referenced on the Temporary Exhibit AA R.I.C.O. chronology. Many of the people identified in the SDTs are also identified in Berry v. Miscavige (Moxon, Abelson, Ingram). App., Ex.3, para.323 (pp.234-235) App.G.Ex.3, para. 151,152,p.140, 141. This was in relation to the activities of Moxon, Kobrin, Paquette, Abelson, Drescher, Wager, Brynes and Gerner.This is generally described in: Temporary Appendix AA; App. A; App.; App., Ex.2; App., Ex.1-50, App., Ex. A, para.2-37, pp.0005-0019; App., Ex.2, para.2-52, pp.0082-0103; App., Ex.3, para.152-237, pp.235-253. 15.The Church of Spiritual Technology ("CST") was a defendant in both the underlying Berry and Pattinson cases.App.F; Exs.3-5.It is specifically the subject of Counts Eight and Ten pending herein. Accordingly, the litigation of claims against CST is part of the Movants complaints to the State Bar. The legal and factual merits in connection with the naming of CST are therefore at issue herein in connection with Count Ten and the related Counts in the Notice of Charges herein. The inter-relationships of the parties are described in App., Ex.3; paras.2-30.CST is specifically described in App., Ex.3, para.7, p.146 (p.13:8). Sherman Lenske is specifically identified as one of its founders and special directors. It is also discussed in Appendix I, Exhibit 16.In effect, Sherman Lenske, Esq. along with one scientologist and two other non-scientology lawyers control the most senior and powerful organization in the Scientology enterprise. Ultimately, CST owns everything within the 150 or more separate scientology corporations. Lenske is one of less than a handful who control CST and perhaps own the entire Church of Scientology. It is a necessary party for judgment collection purposes, alter ego purposes, and for numerous matters relevant to the two Pattinson cases, which are the subject of Count Ten herein. It brought a spurious but successful SLAPP suit motion in the Pattinson case, relying heavily upon the vexatious litigant motion before Judge Williams. Far from being a n occasional corporate counsel, Lenske participated in the estate planning and death arrangements relating to L.Ron Hubbard, the restructuring of the Church, the transfer of Church assets and other matters actually pleaded within the Pattison case and now within Count Ten and the related counts herein, at the insistence of certain of these very same Movants.Appendix L, Ex.1-11B.Lenske has corresponded with me before in connection with the mysterious circumstances of L.Ron Hubbard's death as I set forth in filings in the L.Ron Hubbard Probate Court in 1997.These matters were directly alleged in the Pattinson cases. For example, App., Ex.4, para.62 (a), (c), (i), 114(f), 120. 16. The Discovery being sought of Movants is also relevant for the following reasons: A. The Pattinson cases. (1) The two Pattinson cases (Appendix F, Ex.4&5) are the subject of Notice of Charges Counts Four, Eight and Ten herein. The Pattinson cases are generally described and discussed in Appendix J, Ex.1, Ex.5, 6 and 10.The allegations are factually supported by the Declaration of Michael Pattinson.App.J, Ex.2.Also see: App.; App.; Ex.4, 27,32,33,37;App.E, Ex. A; App. I, Ex.1-14, App.; App., Ex.1-7; App., Ex.32, 48(birthing abuses), 49 (ordered abortions), 50(scientology corporate and government infiltration). Thus, legally the case was pleaded on all fours, right down to the allegations and causes of actions, with existing authorities and prior cases where damages of up to $30 million had been awarded against the Church - for the same and similar alleged conduct. Indeed, at least twelve prior cases had decided most of Pattinson case allegations in favor of the Pattinson situated party. Notwithstanding the State Bar is alleging that case had no legal basis, was an unjust action and that Respondent should be disbarred. It relies solely upon an erroneous Rule 11 Order. However, the Rule 11 Order does not support the State Bars case. (2) The Pattinson cases were voluntarily dismissed after certain of the Movants had waged an abusive discovery blitzkrieg with a juggernaut of lawyers from large firms from across the nation. Consistent with Fair Game, they "overwhelmed" Respondent and his client(s) physically, emotionally and financially. Respondent was deposed for nearly 14 days. Pattinson was deposed for nearly 10 days. Thousands of interrogatories were ordered answered and carefully and strictly organized productions of dozens of boxes of documents ordered in the contemporaneous Berry cases. App., Ex.1. (3) Pattinson had sued Moxon alleging he had been part of the Church fraud through the conduct of criminal activity on its behalf contrary to the church misrepresentations of being as pure as the driven snow and having ceased its criminal conduct.App.C, Ex.; App.; App., Ex.1-12; App., Ex.5-9; App., Ex.2-3.The Rule 11 orders merely held that there was an inadequate connection between Moxon and the allegations of criminal conduct and that therefore Moxon (and only Moxon) had been sued in bad faith.App.J,Ex.3-4.Of course, we now know that at the very same time Moxon was engaging in criminal conduct, on behalf of the Church, against Respondent. Temp. Appendix AA; App. A; App.; App., Ex.5. B.The Berry Cases. (1) The State Bar alleges that the Berry cases were also filed in bad faith and without factual or legal merit. These are Counts One to Three and Ten. It relies solely upon the flawed vexatious litigant ruling. However, the vexatious litigant ruling was based upon the Pattinson Rule 11 Order, the voluntary Berry dismissals and the Chait discovery default order.App.D, Ex.2, 3;App.G, Ex.2-3, App., Ex.1-7. (2) On July 31,2001 I explained the flaws in the State Bars adoption of the Movants arguments that the vexatious litigant ruling meant the Berry cases necessarily meant the Berry cases lacked legal and factual merit. Dear Ms. Goldade and Mr. Hernandez: Since writing my July 27, 2001, letter to you, I have been receiving counsel from a practitioner among those most knowledgeable as to the history and constitutional defects of C.C.P.§ 391-391.7 (the " Vexatious Litigant Statute" or "the statute"). In short, the advice is that I should file proceedings in the federal courts requesting declaratory relief, preliminary injunctive relief and damages against both the State Bar as an entity, and the directly involved individual prosecutors who do not enjoy absolute immunity - as the LA DA has just learned! Wolfgram expressly held that Taliaferro and Muller did not immunize the statute from every form of constitutional attack. Moreover, pro se non-lawyers/lay persons argued Taliaferro and Muller. Indeed, the language in those two cases, relied upon by subsequent cases, is mere dicta in decisions decided upon res judicata principles. Your tenth cause of action, and by extension because of the fraudulently obtained costs and sanctions orders, your first, second, fourth, fifth, seventh and eighth causes of actions, are based upon the August 20,1999, CCP§391 ruling, that the cult retained then Chairman of the Police Commission to appear and obtain from Judge Williams: " . . . not because of what I did but the way I did it." In fact, the Berry v. Cipriano, et al., cases survived both motions to dismiss under the SLAPP statute, and demurrers, before the cult had the case moved to their "friend" Judge Williams whose fiancée worked for one of the principal defendants, as did counsel and to be named [Civ.Code §1714.10] defendants Moxon and Abelson. The State Bar now contends that it may prove its allegations - that the Berry v. Cipriano, Barton, Miscavige (Moxon, Abelson and Ingram), the two Pattinson cases, and the Jeavons case lacked any legal and factual merit - with Judge Williams' vexatious litigant ruling, and that there is no need for the State Bar Court to look behind and/or beyond Judge William's non-appealable ruling. I am only one of a significant number of California attorneys against whom the CCP § 391 ruling has been obtained. To my knowledge, I am the only one who has been the subject of a disciplinary proceeding alleging that I am therefore guilty of filing litigation that lacks legal and factual merit. A selective prosecution! Furthermore, the vexatious litigant statute is misnamed. The statute requires no showing that litigation was filed to "vex", "annoy" or "harass" and there has been no such finding as against me. The statute does not even require a showing that the subject litigation lacked merit or that there was any "intent" or mens rea to commence and maintain meritless actions. Subsequently, the statute deprives subject citizens of basic constitutional, civil and human rights, preventing people on the state (and by automatic inclusion federal [LR 27A]) vexatious litigant list, from obtaining a hearing on the merits of any future law suit without first seeking permission to file from the chief judge, hiring one's own attorney and posting security for the other side's legal expenses (amounting to millions of dollars in most cases involving the Church of Scientology). The statute treats the filing and dismissal of litigation per se as a wrong irrespective of constitutional rights and the merits of the particular litigation. It therefore has a chilling impact contrary to the provisions of the First Amendment. When S.B.2675 was introduced and passed in 1990, the Judicial Council knew that its provisions were unconstitutional (see Legislative Analysis for April 17, 1990 hearing). Since then, no California court has subjected the statute to "strict scrutiny", or examined its constitutionality, even though the statute deprives and restricts citizens in the exercise of their fundamental right to petition for redress of grievances before the courts. This basic right is not only enshrined in the United States Constitution but has its genesis in the English Magna Carta.Indeed, Wolfgram v. Wells Fargo Bank, 53 C.A.4th 43,61 Cal.Rptr.2d.694 (3rd Dist. 1997) held that the statute must be subjected to strict scrutiny and then failed to do so. This should not be surprising when one looks to the special interest groups (which included the State Bar of California) that were involved in the original enactment, and subsequent amendment, of the statute. In fact, as one peels back the layers of the statute, and its legislative history, it becomes apparent that there was and is a dark underside of special interest groups, including the California State Bar, which sought to enact the statute, and then target certain individuals, whose litigation might disturb certain powerful business, insurance, political and legal interests. Very briefly, and to touch upon only several of a multiplicity of relevant constitutional and other legal issues, the statute creates a sub-class of litigants and then treats the litigants in the different classes differently. Thus, the statute not only denies Due Process but also denies the Equal Protection of the laws. Among other things, it can bar a meritorious case from being determined upon its merits but permit an unmeritorious case to proceed, merely because the litigant is rich enough to hire an attorney and/or post a bond to cover the opposing side's legal fees and costs. Consequently, the statute is a special law, creating special classes and imposing special penalties upon a specific sub-group of pro se litigants despite the sanctions and other bad faith litigation provisions that already address the specific evil (perhaps the specific lawyer) targeted by the statute. It is also an unconstitutional Bill of Attainder. In addition, the statute mandates the public wearing of a permanent scarlet letter, badge of infamy, a stigma, forever destroying the good name, reputation, and credibility of a particular pro se litigant in any state or federal court without appeal or redress. In my own particular case, that is in on top of the permanent publication of the "highly defamatory" First Cipriano Declaration for which I initially sought redress from the very same court which forever took my most basic of civil rights. It also took the ability to practice my profession, because of this one compromised judge, improperly refusing to recuse himself. A judge who considered the overwhelming evidence of criminality and fraud upon the court to be irrelevant and not worthy of consideration. There is no right to appeal the statute's application (even in my own egregious circumstances) and no right to challenge the constitutionality of the statute in the state trial and appellate courts. The fact that I have lost my right to defend my property (such as a $28,000.00 debt) is evident from paragraph 3, page 5 of my July 27, 2001, letter to Ava Paquette, Esq. As a result of the cult's vexatious litigant ruling (from a previously, severely and publicly disciplined judge; Soliz v. Williams), I have only a very limited, conditional, burdensome and expensive privilege to pursue these unpaid wages acknowledged as being owed me by the creditor. Even if the finding of purported facts by Judge Williams (and there were none besides what Chaleff, Moxon, Rosen, Chodos and Soter alleged) is ever reversed on appeal, my name upon the Judicial Blacklist is permanent. Indeed, it constitutes a criminal conviction based upon alleged civil misconduct with no means to purge the alleged wrongdoing, as in civil contempt. In other words, the statute violates due process by treating civil conduct as criminal contempt solely because of a failure to prevail or a decision to dismiss irrespective of reasons or circumstances. The statute does not require a showing of bad faith and excludes evidence that a litigant acted in either objective and/or subjective good faith, relied upon the advice of counsel, made an honest mistake of fact (negating any intent to vex, annoy, or harass). In my own case, the determination was made after denying me almost all discovery and without any reference to the actual merits of the litigation then before Judge Williams. The cult then had Judges Snyder and Minning expressly rule on the basis of the prior "vexatious litigant" ruling by Judge Williams. Accordingly, and in connection with the defense of these proceedings, I shall be serving a number of contention interrogatories addressed to your factual and legal positions in connection with the statute and its application to me by Judges Williams, Snyder and Minning. Of course, t here is the separate issue (both here and in connection with a number of complaints soon to be filed) of the misrepresentations to those judges, and the misconduct of counsel, as well as at least one of those judges, which are separate matters for determination herein and, perhaps, before the federal courts - if I accept the advice of counsel, and the offer of counsel, to proceed with an action before the federal courts. This is described in paragraph one above. In that regard, a significant number of people urge that this is the best available case with which to challenge both the statute, and its application by the California State Bar, before the Federal Courts - as well as to seek damages for what has been done to destroy my career and livelihood since the commencement of the proceedings herein (nearly two years ago) in connection initially with the two now dismissed Hurtado v. Berry cases. Please promptly advise me whether you will stipulate to an abatement of these proceedings, so that federal proceedings may be filed to determine, among other things, the constitutional issues outlined above. Very truly yours, Graham E.Berry (3) Clearly, the Berry cases are now known to have had overwhelming merit. Indeed, there is no doubt that the First Cipriano Declaration was perjury and its continuing widespread publication therefore defamatory. Furthermore, as plead in Berry v. Miscavige (Moxon, Abelson, Ingram) App., Ex.3, Moxon, Abelson, Ingram, et al. engaged in the most horrendous abuses of conduct and R.I.C.O.activity.Temp.App.AA; App. A: App.; App. C; App., Ex.2-50; App., para.152-237. C.The Non-Payment of Sanctions. Notice of Charges Counts Four, Five, Seven, Eight and Nine charge Respondent with willful violations of court sanctions orders totaling nearly $100,000.00 and owed primarily to Moxon and Barton. Those orders were obtained on the basis of the wrongful conduct of Moxon, Barton and others of the Movants.Temporary Appendix AA; App. A; App., etc. The others were obtained as a direct result of the stress and overwhelm that Movants employment of Scientology's Fair Game Policies wrought upon Respondent, his practice, health and finances. He is now in bankruptcy. He has no credit worthiness anymore. Certain of Movants have used their ill-gotten sanctions orders to take his career, condo, car and retirement prospects. As described above, even yesterday Respondent was being harassed in deposition and now they Moxon, Kobrin, Paquette and CSI announce they will take his Internet domain names and last remaining ornaments, etc. At the Early Neutral Evaluation Conference, Judge Marcus suggested I move to vacate all of the underlying orders. However, since then Moxon & Kobrin have kept me tied down opposing their unsuccessful summary judgment motion in connection with the matters the State Bar alleges in Count Three herein, and holding expressly in accord with Respondent's testimony before the federal court. These pending motions, and preparation of trial exhibits and organization of documents for yesterdays Paquette deposition, have prevented the completion of Temp.Appendix AA which I need to prepare in order to succinctly set forth the underlying wrongful conduct and inability to pay the underlying sanctions orders. I have just been discharged in bankruptcy. Moxon, Kobrin, Paquette and CSI are harassing me through the Jeavons sanctions. They are determined that I should not receive financial assistance (Movants Ex. A) and appear frustrated that I am now receiving Food Stamps and may receive general relief of $280 per month.Ms.Paquette is now pursuing discovery as to how I can afford to participate in and defend these State Bar proceedings. See para.3 (B) above. Since I filed for bankruptcy protection, CSI, Moxon, Kobrin, Paquette and Barton have spent many hundreds of thousands of dollars in litigation against me, ostensibly in relation to alleged debts (the unpaid sanctions) of many times less in aggregate amount, and probably never recoverable in light of my current situation. D.The Jane Scott Account. Count Three of the Notice of Charges relates to " the Jane Scott account." There is testimony that as soon as Movants had overwhelmed in January-February 1999, and forced my discovery default and voluntary dismissals, they sought to attach all of my moneys, personal and clients. I was going to be absent with my parents. For reasons of convienance, Jane Scott opened a "pass through" account. Later, it was used to pay current trade creditors and thus enable me to continue representing myself and my clients such as Pattinson and Henson against Movants and their scientology clients. Barton, Moxon, Kobrin and Paquette filed two adversary proceedings in bankruptcy court. They alleged fraud. The State Bar alleges moral turpitude (even though I was acting in the best interests of clients and in my own self defense [see Church of Scientology v. Armstrong]). The Bankruptcy Court has just denied the Barton (Moxon, Kobrin, Paquette) summary judgment motion. In effect, it held that my testimony was truthful. I had only sought to prefer current creditors to Barton, and applicable authority held that that was not wrongful or fraudulent conduct. Furthermore, the court commented upon Ms.Paquette numerous misrepresentations to the Court. They mirrored the State Bar Count Three claim herein. The same facts and the same or similar law will be determinative here. Furthermore, the State Bar's contention that Barton is "a valid creditor" is itself a justiciable issue herein. // // // E. The Jeavons Case. (Count Ten - "maintaining unjust actions") (a) The Jeavons v. Church of Scientology International case arose out of the German A.R.D.Television documentary: "the Dark Side of Scientology." In particular, a helicopter facility over part of Scientology's Hemet, California "Gold" desert base.App.D, Ex.48, 366-368.Also see, App.D, Ex.18. 'Scientology is Armed and Dangerous.' In essence, Scientology quickly tracked the helicopter pilot, Robert Jeavons.It filed a F.A.A. complaint seeking suspension of the pilots license for allegedly flying too low. Jeavons believed that Scientology was misrepresenting and falsely portraying the photographic evidence. Furthermore, that the ground facilities were not a "scientology school" but part of Scientology's prison or concentration camp system: " the Rehabilitation Project Force" or "RPF."App.D, Ex.18.Jeavons consulted with me. I also formed the belief that Scientology was misusing the F.A.A. complaint process with false evidence to use Jeavons as an example to other pilots not to fly over or near their high security desert base(s). However, I was too busy to assist him because of the Berry and Pattinson cases. I did agree, in order to preserve the expiring statute of limitations, to draft a pro per complaint that I would walk through the filing process for Jeavons. Moxon immediately appeared and filed a SLAPP motion (C.C.P.§425.16). Moxon sought sanctions from me for representing Jeavons and filing the complaint, albeit in pro per. He argued, in effect, that the litigation privilege (Civ.Code § 47(b)) insulated the FAA complaint from civil liability irrespective of however bad, abusive and improper the Church's motives and purposes in filing the F.A.A.complaint were! The trial judge commented that it was a tough decision but on balance he had too go with the broad "petition activity" privilege set forth in Civil Code Section 47(b). Sanctions of $3,023.00 in sanctions were awarded to the Church. Only yesterday, as set forth above, Moxon, Kobrin and Paquette were using this sanctions order to interfere with and prejudice the preparation of my response herein. (b) The Jeavons sanctions decision genuinely surprised me. Only twelve months earlier, in Berry v. Cipriano, L.A.S.C. superior Court Judge Hiroshige had denied demurrers and Moxon's motion to dismiss the Berry v. Cipriano, et al. cases under C.C.P.§425.16.On that occasion, Moxon unsuccessfully argued that the procurement and [still continuing] publication of the First Cipriano declaration was immunized under C.C.P.§ 425.16 by all of the [false] criminal and state bar complaints they had filed as a result, and the press conference they had called to unsuccessfully pressure an L.A.P.D. prosecution of me - on the basis of the false First Cipriano Declaration.App.F,Ex.3,paras.295-297.Pages 288 -289. After Judge Hiroshige's unfavorable ruling, Moxon had the Berry v. Cipriano case moved to Judge Alexander Williams who conducted a "kangaroo" vexatious litigant hearing.App.B, Ex.2, para.48, page 17,App.M, Ex.1.In addition, I was very familiar with Moxon's further unsuccessful use of C.C.P.§ 425.16 in Church of Scientology v. Wollersheim, 42 Cal.App.4th. 628, 648-649, 49 Cal.Rptr. 2d 620 (1996. F.The Kaleel Case. (a) Count Five of the Notice of Charges alleges that I engaged in current actual conflicts of interest. I agreed to represent John Kaleel less than one week before a complex partnership fight where his previous counsel had withdrawn. As a legal malpractice defense attorney I had often had to step into such last minute complex trials, which we would often call " barn burners." The case was Hollywood At The El Rey Theater v. Kaleel.The trial lasted six weeks. It had nothing to do with either the Church of Scientology or any of its counsel. (b) At the same time I was still counsel for Factnet (Fight Against Coercive Tactics) in a Federal Court copyright case in Denver, Colorado. Scientology (Religious Technology Center) was the plaintiff: RTC v. Factnet, Wollersheim, and Penny. in I had just filed a Petition in the L.Ron Hubbard Probate case in San Luis Obispo Superior Court. Among other things, it dealt extensively with Movant Sherman Lenske who engaged in written correspondence with me at the time. As soon as the L.Ron Hubbard Probate Petition was filed, Scientology commenced settlement negotiations in the RTC v. Factnet case and three months later the case did settle. It was during the settlement talks in RTC v. Factnet (where I was not directly involved) that I agreed to handle the Kaleel defense. (c) Moxon attended the Kaleel trial on a number of occasions. At all times during the Kaleel trial, the Church of Scientology Office of Special Affairs ("OSA") had a representative in the Kaleel case courtroom. For the first few sessions the OSA rep did not appear to know or consort with opposing counsel Bradley Brook, Esq. However, very soon after they began arriving, talking and leaving together. Very quickly things began happening, which prompted a fear of scientology jury tampering. There was evidence of various wrongful, criminal and tax fraud conduct on the part of Bradley Brook's client. To the surprise of the judge and myself, the jury returned an illogical and inconsistent verdict against Kaleel.That was after Judge Workman had questioned the jury as to whether any Church of Scientology representatives were, in effect, engaged in jury tampering. (d) After the Kaleel trial jury had been discharged, we interviewed some of the jurors. Several refused to be interviewed saying to me and my client: "you're a liar and so is he." I was surprised but thought nothing of it. Only recently have I reflected on the fact that Scientology representatives almost always "confront" me with the charge "Berry's a liar", "you're a liar Berry." In the scientology lexicon, this is an example of "crim mind" or the "criminal mind." This is to accuse the Scientology opponent of what the Church of Scientology is guilty of itself! It seems to work. (e) As a result of the Kaleel trial judgment, even after remittitur, Kaleel declared bankruptcy. The Kaleel family loan to the Hollywood at the EL Rey Theater was wiped out by the inconsistent jury judgment. The Kaleel family wanted to sue to recover their approx.$36,000.00.The statute of limitations was expiring. Kaleel also persuaded the bankruptcy that Bradley Brook's client had engaged in fraud and should be sued. The Bankruptcy Trustee (a senior bankruptcy counsel) and his attorney agreed that I should represent both the Estate and the Kaleel family. The Bankruptcy Trustee and his counsel handled the motion to the bankruptcy court to have me appointed Special Counsel to the Bankruptcy Trustee. Remuneration was never an issue for me. I was outraged by the wrongs that had occurred. A complaint by the Estate was filed against Bradley Brook's client. I prepared a Kaleel family retainer agreement containing waivers of conflict of interest. They lived in Australia. The Statute of Limitations was expiring and I agreed to file the Kaleel family complaint - while the family signed the retainer agreement, containing the waiver of conflict of interest, and refunded the filing fee. (f) The Kaleel family failed to respond to my requests for signature of the Retainer Agreement containing the conflict of interest waiver and never refunded the filing fee. I took no significant further litigation steps on their behalf. Furthermore, I become so embattled and overwhelmed by the scientology/Movants blitzkrieg in the Berry cases, Pattinson case, Hurtado v. Berry, etc. that I did not take further significant steps on behalf of the bankruptcy estate. In the late summer of 1999, I was overwhelmed by what Movants had done before Judge Williams with the bogus vexatious litigant ruling [App., Ex.1], the Pattinson case travesty and my bankruptcy as result of the Pattinson, Berry and Jeavons matters, that I had to exit most of my cases. Moxon & Kobrin even appeared in the Anders v. Northwestern Mutual case. They had no client or attorney interests there but inserted themselves to support and argue for the discovery default sanctions that are the subject of the State Bars Notice of Charges Count Nine. The State Bar pursues this Count even though the sanctions were timely paid through my successor counsel. (g) As explained, after the Kaleel family failed to sign the written waiver of conflicts of interest, I took virtually no further steps in the Kaleel matters. Notwithstanding, Bradley Brook brought a motion for sanctions against me for failing to respond to discovery motions. I was overwhelmed by events, temporarily disabled by clinical and severe depression. I filed no opposition papers and took no other steps in my own defense. A default sanctions motion was obtained. (h) The State Bar now alleges that I owed a duty to a third party, opposing counsels client, and that I continued in litigation " in which the interests of the clients actually conflicted without the informed consent of each client. Notice of Charges, Count Six, para.30.All of the evidence is to the contrary. (i) I have recently learned that Moxon and the Church of Scientology have rewarded Bradley Brook, Esq. well for whatever may have occurred in the Kaleel Superior Court case in which Kaleel lost everything! Bradley Brook, Esq. is now number two (second chair) counsel for scientologist Reed Slatkin in the largest ever known "ponzi" investment scam in U.S.history (see below). I believe that significant amounts of the six hundred and fifty million dollar fraud can be traced into the Church of Scientology and that it probably had knowledge of the Slatkin scam and the source of monies the Church was receiving from Slatkin.It is not dissimilar from other financial frauds involving the Church of Scientology, both here and in Europe. G.The Commingling Claim. By the spring of 1999, Movants and their clients litigation and discovery abuse had virtually destroyed me. I was in "overwhelm", "severe depression" and experiencing an emotional breakdown. Accidentally, I deposited some client advance fees and costs into my office bank account instead of first depositing them in my trust account. Approx. $5,800.00 was involved. Immediately, apparently with inside information, Moxon & Kobrin/Barton levied my office bank account. I then realized that I had mistakenly paid the said advance fees and costs into the office account .I filed a Claim for Exemption on the express basis that the $5,800.00 were Client Monies that should have been first deposited in a Client Trust Account, and then transferred to the Office account as appropriate. The Court released the Barton/Scientology levy and no client was prejudiced or suffered any loss. The State Bar wrongly repeats baseless Wager/Gerner allegations to the Bar - that the account was an undisclosed attorney trust account containing personal monies, when no such claim was ever made. The relevant motion papers expressly made clear that a portion of the office account had briefly and mistakenly contained client monies for fees and costs, that should have first gone into the Client Trust Account before transfer to the Office account. I have unsuccessfully offered to stipulate to a three-month suspension for this mistake. The State Bar insists that there be a finding of Moral Turpitude and either disbarment or a long period of suspension-just what the Movants and Church of Scientology demand! 17.I believe that one reason Movants have so outrageously pressured the filing of the Notice of Charges herein [App., Ex.1-11A] is to keep me "benched" and unavailable professionally to church litigation opponents. For example, in the Fishman-Geertz case I introduced evidence as to how the Church was involved in various financial frauds. Indeed, the Fishman securities class action fraud netted Fishman approx.$1.3 million of which the church received approx.25%. The currently pending Slatkin fraud (involving dozens of wealthy scientologists) is the largest known "ponzi" investment fraud in U.S.history.There is a $650 million loss! The Church and Movants have to keep me away from the Slatkin proceedings. Meanwhile, Spain is currently seeking extradition of Rev.Heber Jentzch, the President of Church of Scientology International. He was free on $1 million bail. Spain seeks a 60-year sentence against him and other senior scientology officials in connection with financial crimes. I deposed Rev. Jentzch on church related financial fraud and crime in the Fishman case. The Church and Movants need these proceedings to keep me unavailable to assist the Spanish Government. I have previously provided the German Government with assistance regarding the Church of Scientology. The German Government deems the Church (in effect) to be a totalitarian, subversive, terrorist, criminal and commercial enterprise. On each occasion I am flown to Germany I am provided with German Security Police escorts to protect me against agents of Movant's clients. Local L.A. law enforcement have also warned me in connection with my safety at the hands of the scientologists. Thus, for self-defense, I maintain a high Internet profile. These matters are much discussed upon the Internet. App., Ex.42-47.Indeed; there has been much Internet and public protest over the State Bars pursuit over these proceedings. For example, App., Ex.21 to 41. 18. In addition, these proceedings are intertwined with the obstruction of justice in the recent Riverside County case involving Keith Henson, as well as earlier Church of Scientology copyright and trade secret litigation against Mr.Henson.The Church used the deposition process in Hurtado v. Berry to try and manipulate Mr. Henson's non-appearance and subsequent arrest while picketing. For this, Mr. Henson was recently convicted of interfering with the practice of a Religion.Mr.Henson was sentenced to prison. He received information that scientology operatives were spreading the word around the prison to be that Henson was coming, and that he is a child molester. Henson feared for his life and fled to Canada where his petition for asylum is pending. Consequently, as in all asylum cases, the Canada Government has demanded that the U.S.State Department investigate 'what really went down' with the scientology attorneys Abelson and Feffer and the Riverside District Attorneys Office. Meanwhile, there are reports that Sandee Oglivie, named on page 9:16 of Attachment A to the SDTs, has been the subject of further Moxon obstruction of justice and witness tampering in connection with Robert Cipriano [App., Ex.2, 3.]. Because of Cipriano's new connections, there have been reports of Chinese Government interest in aspects of all this. Consequently, I believe that these proceedings are not only largely unfounded but are maintained to harass me and keep me professionally unavailable to the Church's litigation opponents. It is very difficult to find attorneys to litigate against the Church.App.D, Ex.34-36. 19.Yesterday, at my continuing judgment debtor examination in the Jeavons v Church of Scientology sanctions matter, Ms.Paquette asked many questions regarding my communications with others involved in scientology-related litigation and requests from European governments for my specialist assistance. In particular, Ms.Paquette focused on assistance and requests that I might have received from the Government of Germany. 20.I believe that there is strong circumstantial evidence of prosecutorial misconduct herein. Inter alia, the State Bar has provided informal discovery of only some of its communications with the Movants and Complainants herein.App.L, Ex.1-11A.The Bar has refused to permit review of any other communications claiming privilege. However, any such privilege has already been waived by selective disclosure of App., Ex.1-11A.Furthermore, the overwhelming (not just prima facie) evidence of crime -fraud in these proceedings should cause it to yield to the interests of justice and full discovery of evidence and 'victim' communications, as in any criminal prosecution. 21.Filed herewith as Appendix K, Ex.8 and 9 are copies of files received from defendant Robert Cipriano's co-counsel, Gary Soter, Esq., in Berry v. Cipriano. App., Ex.2, para.36, page 21(p.13). I was with Mr.Cipriano when he received potions of his files (five boxes) from former counsel Gerry Soter, Esq. in approx. July, 2000.App.K, Ex.8 is the Moxon private investigator Eugene Ingram investigation file (presumptively attorney work product privilege unless waived). App., Ex.9 is also attorney work product presumptively privileged unless waived. I was with Robert Cipriano when he went through his files. At the time he provided me with App., Ex.8 and 9. Mr.Cipriano unsuccessfully requested Judge Williams to order Moxon to return his files on August 20,1999.App.M, Ex.1.All subsequent written requests by Cipriano to Moxon for return of his files have been either refused or ignored. However, for a brief period of time last summer, Moxon did offer to let Cipriano "come to his office and collect the two boxes of files". Two boxes! There should be dozens of boxes. Moxon & Kobrin still refuse to turnover Cipriano's files, two years after being requested to do so. 22. Certain of the movements, and their clients/agents/employees have submitted at least eight previous complaints to the California State Bar alone. The Bar has investigated and dismissed each of these. Many of the documents already submitted to the State Bar in connection with those prior investigations are relevant to the discovery the bar seeks herein. I have requested the State Bar to review previous exhibits submitted in connection with those closed investigations. The State Bar's written response is that it will not incur the expense of accessing and reviewing the previously dismissed complaints and if I wish the State Bar to review and consider any such documents I must submit new copies. Many are voluminous and the copying expense would be enormous. The State Bar access to storage cost would be/should be minimal. Furthermore, on three occasions in the past six months, senior State Bar Chief Trial Counsel have responded to three different complaints involving these matters and Moxon, Kobrin and Abelson.On each occasion the State Bar has written that it has fully investigated all of these matters and reviewed all of the evidence and concluded that Moxon, Kobrin, Abelson, etc.have engaged in no wrongdoing or conduct violating the ethical rules it administers.

This motion is brought pursuant to State Bar Rules of Procedure Rules 224 ("Rule 224") and Rule 300 ("Rule 300") and upon the grounds that: (a) This court, in it's August 20,2001 order herein, pre-determined' a 'significant issue' prior to receiving Respondent's argument and evidence thereon; (b) The error is not readily remediable after trial; (c) The August 20,2001 order is erroneous as a matter of law and/or fact. (d) The sworn evidence upon which the Court based its factual finding has been recanted and the other declarant's testimony, in effect, acknowledged by Movants as either perjurious or mistakenly false. This motion is based upon this Notice of Motion and Motion, the annexed Memorandum of Points and Authorities, the accompanying Declaration of Graham E.Berry and the Exhibits attached thereto. This motion had previously been "received" but rejected by the Court for service defects. Dated: September _, 2001 Respectfully Submitted, ___________________ Graham E.Berry Respondent Pro Per MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES FACTUAL STATEMENT On two dates, Respondent served eight Subpoenas Duces Tecum (Business Records Only) on certain third parties ("the SDTs"). Berry Decl.para.3.Each of those third parties filed motions to quash those SDTs and for protective orders ('the Motions"). Each of the eight motions was almost identical. They were served in two waves of four. A significant issue that Respondent was to address in his opposition was whether or not he personally served the eight SDTs and whether he was permitted to do so while on voluntary inactive status. On August 20,2001 the Court held a telephonic status conference. During the August 20,2001,Status Conference, Respondent advised the Court that he had researched the issue and concluded that he could issue subpoenas. However, he had not done so. He had not personally signed the SDTs. Berry Decl.para.4. Moreover, the Court was advised that it could see this for itself on Exhibit A to each of the Motions To Quash. Respondent had signed the proofs of service. His signature and name was totally different to the signature and name on the SDTs. Berry Decl.para.5, 8. On August 20,2001, the Court filed a Status Conference Order herein. Berry Decl. Exhibit A. In pertinent part, it read as follows: "Mr. Berry has sent out subpoenas duces tecum in connection with this case which he personally signed at a time when he was not eligible to practice law." Emphasis added. Berry Decl.3. In ruling that "Mr. Berry has sent out subpoenas duces tecum in connection with this case which he personally signed at a time when he was not eligible to practice law", this Court pre-determined a "significant issue" for determination after receipt of Respondent's Opposition to the pending motion. Moreover, the Court's order contained one or more errors of fact or law based upon the evidence already before the Court." Respondent attempted to file a Motion for Reconsideration. He mail served it. Berry Decl. Exhibit B. It was rejected by the Court .The Court advised Respondent that he could personally serve documents but he could not mail serve documents. Berry Decl.Exhibit C.Thereafter, Respondent filed opposition papers that referenced Trial Exhibits Appendices A through M, Temporary Appendix AA and lodged the deposition transcript of Donald Wager, Esq. On September 7,2001,the Court held a further Status Conference in this case. Among other things, the Court addressed the following matters: Movant Gerner's, et.al. eight motions to quash "records only" subpoenas; Respondent's Notice of Refiling Motion To Continue Trial and Discovery Cutoff Dates Due Process Issue and Settlement Offer. That Notice of Refiling also alerted to the Court to a Motion for Reconsideration that had also been rejected for similar service reasons to those addressed in the Notice of Refiling.The Motion for Reconsideration is attached hereto as Exhibits B. The Notice denying filing of the Motion for Reconsideration is attached hereto as Exhibit C. The Notice of Refiling is attached hereto as Exhibit D. The Court had given no notice that it would be considering oral argument of the Motions To Quash, etc. The State Bar filed it's own motion to strike the lodging of the Wager deposition. It had just been filed and received by Respondent the previous day. In those circumstances, there was no opposition on file. Also participating in the telephonic status conference (for the motion to quash) was Movant Gerner for himself and the other seven Movants. During the hearing Movant Gerner responded to Court questions and stated that he had been retained by the Church of Scientology to review and then file a complaint (s) regarding these matters. Mr. Gerner also Gerner withdrew his verified statement of fact that Respondent had signed the eight subpoenas in issue while on voluntary inactive status and that they had been issued by the Clerk of the Court. He explained that he was not familiar with Respondents signature. However, all the other Movants, but Lenske, were or should have been so familiar. No explanation was offered for their misrepresentations under oath or why it was not apparent from the face of the records subpoenas themselves, that their sworn statements of fact against Respondent were false. Mr. Gerner also conceded that he had filed the eight motions beyond the requisite time period because he was not able to get his papers together in time. He also admitted that he had made no attempt to "meet and confer" and had not filed the mandatory "meet and confer" statement. Although Mr. Gerner had not previously dealt with Respondent, he stated that it would have been a waste of time to "meet and confer" so he had not done so. There were no motions for relief from default, written or oral. Respondent repeated his written argument that the Court as acting in excess of jurisdiction if it did other than deny the Motions to Quash and their requests that Respondent be permitted no discovery without first filing a motion to show good cause why he should be permitted discovery. Instead, the Court granted the Motions to quash the records only subpoenas-without prejudice. It ordered that Respondent could not issue any discovery without first obtaining a court order after a showing of good cause. Respondent reminded the Court of his written submission that the Church of Scientology v. Armstrong case expressly found that the Church had engaged in massive document shredding after receiving notice of prospective discovery requests. In addition, Gerner stipulated that he would receive mail service of any future discovery requests and/or subpoenas for himself and his seven clients. The Court interrogated Respondent as to why he had lodged the Wager deposition transcript. Respondent advised the Court that his Trial Exhibits Appendix A contained extracts of testimony from the Wager deposition transcript taken in the Hurtado v. Berry case. Mr. Wager had testified that he and Mr.Moxon had solicited the change of representation of Respondent's then client, made payments to alleged witness Apodaca and filed the false Hurtado testimony with the Santa Monica Court which led to the commencement of these proceedings. It was part of Moxon's defense in Cipriano. Hurtado and Apodaca were to be used as "witnesses" in the Berry v. Cipriano, Barton, Miscavige (Moxon, Abelson, Barton) cases. Indeed, Keith Henson was also subpoenaed to testify in the Hurtado travesties as part of a fraud perpetrated upon the Riverside County Court, Hemet Branch, in People v. Henson (another Church of Scientology instigated perversion and obstruction of justice). The Church of Scientology. Bowles, Moxon and Ingram had testified, in the underlying cases, that they had obtained the First Cipriano Declaration. Cipriano had repeatedly testified, even under cross-examination by his former attorney Moxon, that his testimony during the underlying cases was perjury extorted by Ingram, Moxon and others. Respondent had alleged he was improperly denied discovery during the underlying cases. Respondent referred the Court to his Temporary Appendix AA and Appendix A of Trial Exhibits as support for the argument that the Hurtado case is intertwined with the underlying cases (Berry v. Cipriano, Barton, Miscavige (Moxon, Abelson, Ingram) and was the initiating matter in the current proceedings. He advised the Court that he had lodged the Wager deposition transcript with a self addressed stamped envelope as a matter of common civil and trial practice, and civil procedural rules, in case the Court wished to view the excerpts of testimony in context. The Court admonished Respondent and ordered the lodged Wager transcript returned. The Court also ordered all of Respondent's other trial exhibits (and used in connection with Respondent's opposition to the Gerner motions) stricken from the record and returned to Respondent. Respondent reminded the Court that at the first and/or second status conference herein the Respondent had told the Court of: his limited means to pay for copying; that many documents that would be the subject of discovery disputes would be also trial exhibits; that he proposed filing his trial exhibits for use during discovery disputes. The Court had agreed and the presentation was discussed. The Court stated that Respondent must have misunderstood, the Court was not a document repository and storage facility and all of the submitted exhibits were being returned. Although the motion to continue trial was not before it, the Court requested Respondent to read his Doctors letter attached to that motion as Exhibit A. The Court heard that Respondent was already working 10-16 hours a day on these matters. The Court refused to continue the trial date. It did keep the discovery cut-off open. Respondent raised the issue of voluminous discovery issued by the State Bar and requested an extension of time (the first such request). The State Bar refused. The court ordered the Respondent to answer the State Bar's entire discovery either by the Settlement Conference but no later than September 24,2001.There was no motion before it by Respondent. The State Bar refused to meet and confer with Respondent under any circumstances, saying that Respondent had distorted and misrepresented its statements in the past. Respondent submits that the State Bar has never once indicated what it considers Respondent to have misrepresented or distorted. Certainly, it has never denied saying, during the E.N.E.C. conference before Judge Marcus that it was not familiar with all of the facts and documents because their were too many to review, and that attorneys in the underlying cases, including complainant Wager, may have engaged in criminal conduct - but how did that affect Respondent's culpability in connection with those same lawyers allegations in this case! The Court openly laughed at the very suggestion in the faxed Notice of Refiling that the State Bar was in bed with the Church of Scientology in this case. It ordered Respondent to send no more faxes to the Court until further order or exception. It did not take up the matter of the Motion for Reconsideration of the Court's previous order that Respondent had unsuccessfully tried to present to the court. Those statements under oath by Gerner were self-admittedly false. Gerner's clients made, and could make, no such claim of unfamiliarity with Respondent's signature-even if the Gerner excuse was plausible or even reasonable! A copy of the Court's September 7,2001 order is attached hereto as Exhibit E. Respondent continues to seek reconsideration of the Court's August 20,2001order. // // APPLICABLE LAW. Rule 224.Motion For Reconsideration. (a) Within fifteen (15) days of service of the decision in a proceeding, any party may make a motion in the hearing department for Reconsideration. (b) A motion for reconsideration shall be accompanied by a memorandum of points and authorities supporting the moving party's contention that the decision contains one or more errors of fact and/or law based on the evidence already before the Court. Rule 300 (a) provides, in pertinent part, that a party may seek interlocutory review of the trial courts "with respect to significant issues…that are not readily remediable after trial." Rule 300(b) further provides that the Petition For Review must be filed within fifteen days of service of the trial court's order and that the filing of a motion for reconsideration tolls this period. III. ARGUMENT A. MOVANTS MAKE MATERIAL MISREPRESENTATIONS HEREIN Page 1 lines 21-23 of each of the motions state "the Subpoena is invalid…as it was improperly signed by Respondent…" These representations are repeated on subsequent pages of each of the motions: Moxon & Kobrin, p.5: 4-8; Lenske, p.4: 23-27; Gerner, p. 4:18-22; Abelson, p.4: 25-5:2. Certain of the attorneys then compound their express misrepresentations to the Court with testimony that Respondent signed the subpoenas served herein (Gerner Decl. para.2, p.1: 11-12; Lenske Decl. para.2, p: 1:9-10; Kobrin Decl. para.2, p.1: 11-12). Such blatant and material misrepresentations to the Court are not new to certain of the Movant's. Only two months ago, the Federal Bankruptcy Court took the trial in Barton v. Berry off calendar after receiving a deluge of the most material of misrepresentations from Moxon & Kobrin, on matters concerning the same alleged facts that are the basis of Count Three of the State Bar's Notice of Disciplinary Charges herein On August 14, 2001, the usually understated Federal Court scathingly denied the Moxon & Kobrin/Glenn Barton motion for summary judgment, "because of inaccuracies in the foregoing allegations". B. RESPONDENT DID NOT PERSONALLY SIGN THE EIGHT SDTS Rules of Procedure 151 (a) and 152 provide, inter alia, that " . . . any party may issue subpoenas" (emphasis added) for both discovery and trial purposes. The rule does not state counsel for any party may issue, etc. Indeed, Respondent carefully researched this issue before proceeding with discovery herein (Berry Decl.4). Notwithstanding, out of an abundance of caution, and contrary to Movant's express and material misrepresentations to this Court, each of the SDT's at bar was obtained from the clerk (Rule 151(c)) and, although not necessarily required, duly signed by the Clerk of the State Bar Court (Berry Decl 5) The SDTs themselves dramatically illustrate what is a blatant and obviously intentional misrepresentation, by these six California attorneys, to the California State Bar Court. Berry Decl.7.For present purposes, all are identical in this regard. At the bottom of page one is the signature of the issuing State Bar Clerk (within the State Bar seal on the original). At the bottom of page two, in almost the same position, is the signature of the Respondent and "server." There is zero degree of similarity between the two signatures. Accordingly, the Court has erred as a matter of both fact and law. See generally, Rule 224. // // C.THE ERRORS OF LAW AND FACT INVOLVE A SIGNIFICANT ISSUE At the heart of the pending third party motions is Respondent's constitional right, as a matter of due process and equal protection, to take discovery herein and in accordance with applicable law. That is a "significant issue." It impacts upon the Respondent's rights as an unrepresented party appearing in pro per herein. Any restriction of Respondent's discovery rights herein are not "readily remediable after trial." Berry Decl.6. See generally, Rule 300(a). Rule 300 (h) (1) provides, inter alia, that a party seeking a stay of proceedings pending appellate review must first make a motion to the hearing judge for a stay. In the event this Court denies this Motion for Reconsideration, Respondent will so move the Court. D. RELIEF IS REQUIRED TO PREVENT FRAUDS UPON OTHER COURT'S This Court has issued an order (August 20,2001) utterly contrary to the true facts and in accordance with the Church of Scientology lawyer's blatant and inexplicable misrepresentations to this Court. The real complainant herein (the Church of Scientology) is a long-standing litigation opponent of Respondent. Both it and its shills have previously made between 15 and 30 unsuccessful criminal, disciplinary and other complaints against Respondent, and have recently voluntarily dismissed two previous cases that they solicited and criminally manufactured and pursued. Indeed, those two vexatious proceedings were the genesis of the current proceedings. The Church of Scientology will not hesitate to cite this courts erroneous August 20,2001 order against Respondent unless it is immediately vacated nunc pro tunc. Berry Decl.Exhibit 10. Accordingly, Respondent respectfully moves the Court to correct it's own record herein which it may do at any time in the interests and furtherance of justice and in it's own inherent discretion. IV. CONCLUSION For the foregoing reasons, the Court must grant Respondent's motion for reconsideration and vacate it's August 20,2001 Order finding that Respondent had "personally signed" the eight SDTs. Respectfully Submitted, Dated: September _, 2001. Graham E. Berry // // // // // // // // // // // // // // // DECLARATION OF GRAHAM E. BERRY I, Graham E. Berry, declare and state as follows: 1. I am an attorney at law licensed to practice law before all of the courts of the States of California and New York, the State of New South Wales in the Commonwealth of Australia and the Dominion of New Zealand. I have personal knowledge of the facts set forth herein, and if called upon, would so testify thereto. 2. This declaration is filed in connection with my motion for reconsideration and/or stay of the Court's August 20,2001 order herein. 3.Attached hereto, and marked by the letters indicated, are true and correct copies of the following documents: Exhibit A: August 20,2001 Order herein. Exhibit B: Motion For Reconsideration. Exhibit C: Rejection of Motion For Reconsideration. Exhibit D: Notice of Refiling. Exhibit E: September 7,2001 Order herein. 4.I did not personally any of the SDTs at issue herein. After the Initial Status Conference herein, on July 16,2001, I enquired of both Ms.Goldade and the Clerk's Office of my right to serve discovery as a party on inactive status. They each told me to check the rules. I checked the rules. Specifically, I noted the provisions of Rules 151 and 152. 5.In accordance with the provisions of Rule 152(c), I requested the State Bar Court's office in San Francisco to send me a set of signed subpoenas for me to issue herein. In addition, I personally obtained further supplies of duly signed Subpoenas Duces Tecums and appearance only subpoenas from the State Bar Court's office in Los Angeles. Samples of such originals are attached hereto as Exhibits Band C. After service, I signed the proofs of service. There is no resemblance between the signatures on the face of the subpoenas and the proofs of service. 6.If unable to proceed with the service of discovery herein, in accordance with the rules and not the unsubstantiated allegations of Mr.Gerner and his clients, my constitutional rights of due process and equal protection herein will be prejudiced, I will have insufficient time to both make and have motions determined and take timely discovery. I will be unable to properly present a defense at trial herein. In the each of the relevant underlying cases, either my clients of myself were effectively and improperly denied discovery. Thus, the court's ruling herein, if not reconsidered and vacated, has irremediably affected my constitutional, property and other rights and now fatally taints the remainder of these proceedings. 7.I can conceive of no proper or explicable basis for the moving third party's material misrepresentations to the Court, that I personally the eight Subpoena Duces Tecum in connection with the eight pending motions to quash and for protective orders. 8.At the August 20,2001 Status Conference herein I advised the Court that I did not personally sign the subpoenas at issue and that such was readily apparent from a comparison of the face of the subpoenas and the proofs of service. // 9. At the September 7,2001 Status Conference herein, Mr.Gerner admitted that he had been retained by the Church of Scientology to file the dismissed Hurtado and other charges herein, and the still pending complaints herein [which the Church desperately needs adjudicated in it's favor, in order to ensure Respondent can be rendered unable to represent those who it wishes to destroy with litigation terrorisim.Mr.Gerner also stated he was no longer relying on defective service arguments. He had not "met and conferred" and had not filed a "meet and confer declaration". It was his opinion that it would have been futile to "meet and confer". He had not filed his motions timely because he had not been able to get his papers together in time. He withdrew his allegation that Respondent had personally signed the records only subpoenas. He said he was unfamiliar with Respondent's signature. He did not explain how so many of his attorney client declarants, and himself, had sworn under oath that Respondent did sign the subpoenas when the Clerk of the Court had issued them. He did not explain how many of his clients, who had litigated against Respondent for up to ten years, were able to testify that Respondent and not the Court's Clerk had signed the subpoenas or how that was not apparent from the face of the subpoenas and Exhibit A thereto. The Court did not vacate it's August 20,2001 Order, incorporating the misrepresentations of Mr.Gerner and his seven clients, as an order of the court. // // // // // 10.On the basis of ten years of litigation against the Church of Scientology, and seven years of subjection to it's psycho and litigation terrorism and abuse of process, I believe the cult will misuse the Court's August 20,2001 Order unless it is vacated in accordance with the accompanying Motion. I declare under penalty of perjury according to the laws of the United States of America and the State of California that the foregoing is true and correct.

This motion is brought pursuant to State Bar Rules of Procedure Rule 115 ("Rule 115") and upon the grounds that "good cause" has been shown including: (a) Respondent's substantial efforts in responding to a significant portion of the discovery already and also by September 24,2001; (b) Respondent is engaged in other litigation brought against him by the Church of Scientology. That litigation involves many of the same matters (counts one to three) at issue herein. Trial therein has been set for January 28,2001. The Church of Scientology is pursuing discovery against Respondent in the matters involving count seven herein and certain of that discovery has been and is on-going; (c) Respondent's partial and temporary disability brought about by the Church of Scientology's actions towards him; (d) The imminent settlement conference and attendant briefing requirements. This motion is based upon this Notice of Motion and Motion, the attached Memorandum of Points and Authorities, the accompanying Declaration of Graham E.Berry and the Exhibits attached thereto. Respondent has engaged in "meet and confer" communications. Berry Decl.para.2 (a). Dated: September 21, 2001 Respectfully Submitted, ___________________ Graham E.Berry Respondent Pro Per MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES The genesis of these matters is Respondent's willingness to do what all but less than a handful of lawyers, nation-wide, are willing to do on any kind of successive basis: represent victims of a recognized psycho -terror group which mandates that such lawyers are to be "utterly destroyed by any means possible." Scientology litigation is different from all other-because of the church's litigation and related terrorism. It has a steep learning curve that takes years to accomplish. Berry Decl.paras.10, 15. During most of the 1990s Respondent was engaged in a number of successful defenses of people being sued by the Church of Scientology. These included one of it's former lawyers, a psychologist and certain persons critical of the Church and it's policies and practices for intimidating, harassing and "shuddering" all opposition into silence - as it pursues it agenda to impose a totalitarian world rule and exterminate all non-scientologists (billions of people) "quietly and without sorrow." "It is not necessary to produce a world of clears in order to have a meaningful and responsible social order; it is only necessary to delete those individuals who range from 2.0 down, either by processing them enough to get their tone level above the 2.0 line or simply quarantining them from the society." L.Ron Hubbard, Science of Survival, p.157. Relevant written church scriptures also provide that Respondent has no rights at all, because he impedes the church's intended takeover of the heads of government, business and the media - and the subsequent extermination of more than 2 ½%, or 650 million of the planet's population (644 million people more than Hitler exterminated in his concentration camps). See generally, L.Ron Hubbard, Science of survival, pp.39, 88-90,115-116,131(13th.printing). Respondent's defense herein, inter alia, alleges that he has been the subject of massive and intentional criminal, tortious and unethical conduct by the Church of Scientology; it's Office of Special Affairs ("OSA") and certain of OSA's attorneys and private investigators. As a direct consequence, as will be proven at trial herein, this intentional abuse and misuse of process caused Respondent to suffer from a nervous or emotional breakdown ("Major Depressive Disorder"). He is still recuperating from that diagnosis under continuing medical supervision. See Barry Decl.paras.10, 13,15. His recovery has not been helped by the continue massive over-litigation being waged against him by the Church of Scientology and it's lawyer representatives such as Moxon & Kobrin, Ava Paquette, Elliot Abelson, Donald Wager, Michael Gerner and others. Scientology's massive over-litigation and abuse of the judicial system was also documented and discussed in Church of Scientology v. Wollersheim, (1996) 42 Clap. 4th 628, 648-649. Finding that the Cult had engaged "in a course of oppressive litigation conduct" the court stated, "When one party to a lawsuit continuously and unsuccessfully uses the litigation process to bludgeon the opponent into submission, those actions must be closely scrutinized for constitutional implications. [emphasis added.] Costs of $500,000 were upheld against Moxon and others in this decision. Although Moxon has claimed that Scientology cancelled Fair Game, "for public relations purposes" in 1966, it has been subsequently recognized in numerous judicial decisions, e.g.: United States v. Kattar, 840 F2d 118, 125 (1st Cir. 1988); Church of Scientology v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue, 83 U.S. Tax Ct. Rpt, 381, 429-442 (1984); Van Schaick v. Church of Scientology, 535 F.Supp.1125, 1131, n.4 (U.S.D.C. Mass. 1982); Church of Scientology v. Armstrong, 232 Cal.App.3d 1060, 1067 (1991); Wollersheim v. Church of Scientology 212 Cal.App.3d 827, 888-891 (1989); Allard v Church of Scientology, 58 Cal. app. 3d 439, 443n.1, (1976). There is overwhelming evidence that a large, long, convoluted criminal and fraudulent conspiracy is being perpetrated against Respondent. The CSI v. Fishman & Geertz defamation case was filed in connection with Time magazine allegations that the Church of Scientology was involved in murders, suicides and financial frauds. Berry prevailed over OSA, Moxon and Abelson in CSI v. Fishman & Geertz. Scientology was vengeful. Respondent had survived the long scientology litigation learning curve and knew too much. He also had to be eliminated ("destroyed") as an available legal recourse for the Church's "enemies" and litigation "targets". Berry Dcel.para.10, 13.The testimonial evidence is that Scientology instructed Bowles & Moxon/Moxon & Kobrin to retain private investigator Ingram to investigate Respondent. Scientology's investigators employ the Church's "Fair Game Policies and Practices" and all manner of illegal and litigation-related activity. The Church keeps evidence of its criminal activities in 'Red Boxes'. The Church of Scientology/Bowles - Moxon-Kobrin/Eugene Ingram investigation led directly to the First Cipriano Declaration. It was published and distributed worldwide by Church shills including Ingram, the CAN Reform Group [Barton], Elliot Abelson, Esq. and others. It was the basis of the Berry v. Cipriano /Barton / Miscavige/ Moxon/ Abelson / Ingram) consolidated lawsuits where there was never any decision upon the substantive merits of the litigation. Count Ten of the Notice of Charges herein alleges that this consolidated lawsuit was vexatious and frivolous! Yet, the defamation allegations are uncontroverted and the "highly defamatory" publications continue forever on the Internet. There is uncontroverted testimony, of a number of different people, that the Church of Scientology/ Bowles/ Moxon/ Kobrin/ Abelson/Ingram "investigation" engaged in the obstruction of justice, extortion, subornation of perjury, solicitation of clients, blackmail, bribery, business relationship with clients, non-waivable conflicts of interest, paying for perjury, false criminal complaints, false state bar complaints, etc. For example, the First Cipriano Declaration was perjury and obstruction of justice obtained through extortion. Moxon, Abelson and Scientology (Barton) have distributed, and continue distributing, the defamatory statements as alleged in the Berry consolidated defamation cases. The documentary evidence establishes the role of Moxon, Kobrin, Paquette, Abelson, Drescher, Byrnes, Wager and Gerner in the seven year convoluted octopus- like conspiracy of fraud and crime upon the Respondent and the Courts before which he and his clients properly sought redress for the wrongs the Church, OSA and these Movant lawyers had perpetrated. Amazingly, this Church and its lawyers have regularly engaged in this incredible litany of crime. Even Federal Judges have complained of Scientology harassment in cases involving Moxon and his cohorts. This is not an isolated event. American Lawyer, Scientology's War Against The Judges, 1976. FACTUAL STATEMENT On September 7,2001,the Court held a further Status Conference in this case. Although the Motion to Continue Trial, filed in Los Angeles, had not been received or read by the Court sitting in San Francisco, the Court requested Respondent to read his Doctors letter attached to that motion as Exhibit A. The Court heard that Respondent was already working 10-16 hours a day on these matters. The Court refused to continue the trial date. It did keep the discovery cut-off open. Respondent raised the issue of voluminous discovery issued by the State Bar and requested an extension of time (the first such request). The State Bar refused. The court ordered the Respondent to answer the State Bar's entire discovery either by the Settlement Conference but no later than September 24,2001.There was no motion before it by Respondent. The State Bar refused to "meet and confer" with Respondent under any circumstances, saying that Respondent had distorted and misrepresented its statements in the past. Respondent submits that the State Bar has never once indicated what it considers Respondent to have misrepresented or distorted in the past despite express invitations to do so. For example, Berry Decl. Exh. Certainly, it has never denied saying, during the E.N.E.C. conference before Judge Marcus that it was not familiar with all of the facts and documents because their were too many to review, and that attorneys in the underlying cases, including complainant Wager, may have engaged in criminal conduct - but how did that affect Respondent's culpability in connection with those same lawyers allegations in this case! Respondent now files a formal motion to extend time to respond to the State Bar's discovery requests. II. APPLICABLE RULES Rules 115 and 1131 set forth the criteria for the granting of continuances herein. Rule 115 provides, inter alia, that any motion for continuance must be in writing and "shall only be granted upon a showing of good cause." // // // III. DISCUSSION Respondent has been diligent in proceeding with discovery herein but already complainant's Wager, Gerner, Moxon, Kobrin, Paquette, Abelson et. al. have already and irreparably denied Respondent due process herein - and improperly erected barriers to the discovery he sought to take - before being subjected to a substantial volume of State Bar discovery with the effect that he cannot prepare his own or the motions to show good cause why he should be permitted to serve that discovery. Respondent is currently upon voluntary inactive status and has undertaken that he will not resume active status either before the ultimate resolution of these proceedings or without first providing the State Bar and this Court with 30 days notice of his intent so to do. Indeed, his intention is not to immediately (if ever) return to the practice of law but to write three books on the Church of Scientology. The first book will detail the matters addressed above which includes these proceedings. Considerable media interest has been expressed in this incredible but well-documented story of Scientology lawlessness and corruption of the legal, criminal and disciplinary system. III. ARGUMENT A. RESPONDENT HAS "MET AND CONFERRED." As set forth in the attached Berry declaration para.2 (a) and Exhibits A, B and C, Respondent has engaged in "meet and confer" communications in an attempt to informally resolve this matter by stipulation submitted for court approval. The State Bar has insisted, as in all previous requests that a formal motion be made without prior stipulation between the parties. Berry Decl.Exh.B. B. REASONABLE RELIEF IS BEING REQUESTED. Respondent is seeking a mere 21-day extension of time in which to respond to voluminous discovery which, properly responded to, will provide an invaluable and time saving resource in these proceedings. Respondent is carefully preparing his responses with this in mind. Berry Decl. paras. 2(b) and 2(c), 12, 15. Approx.300 boxes of scientology litigation related documents are involved. Berry Decl.para.17.Indeed, the completed Interrogatory responses will enable Respondent to then seek the assistance of pro bono defense counsel. Berry Decl.para.12. C. RESPONDENT HAS SHOWN "GOOD CAUSE" FOR THE REQUESTED RELIEF. Despite the demands of the real complainant herein, upon Respondent in other related matters (see Section III D below) Respondent has been diligently responding to the State Bar's comprehensive discovery requests. He has completed the Responses to the Requests For Admission. Berry Decl. paras. 2(b), Exhibit E may be amended subsequently when further documents are expected to enable the nature of the monies deposited into the Jane Scott account. The Federal Court has already approved of applicable law stating that it is not wrongful to prefer paying current trade creditors over other creditors such as Barton/Church of Scientology. Such is even more permissible where Respondent had on-going obligations to the representation of other clients, which the Barton/Church of Scientology machinations were intended to disrupt and prejudice. The Church of Scientology policies behind such actions are briefly described in the Berry Declaration, paras.6, 7,9,10,15,17. Respondent has also provided answers to approx. one third of the Interrogatories and expects to serve responses to another approx. one third of the responses by September 24,2001.It is expected that answers to the extensive Count Ten requests will be all that remain and the Court and State Bar should already have a basic grasp of the major pertinent facts in the Berry, Jeavons and Pattinson cases. See Berry Decl. para. 3 and Exhibits A, C, G. The conduct of the Church of Scientology, through it's representative attorneys, have already cost Respondent his health, career, condominium, car, retirement prospects and approx.$400,000.00 in lost equity, mortgage payments, etc. Berry Decl.paras.6, 7,9,13,15,16.10,13. D.COMPLAINANTS ARE ALSO CONCURRENTLY DEMANDING DISCOVERY IN RELATED MATTERS. Counts One to Three of the State Bars charges herein involve matters still being litigated between the real complainants herein and the Respondent. The Church of Scientology has been concurrently engaged in an unsuccessful summary judgment motion therein. Berry Dcel.paras.5, 6. The Church of Scientology is also using the Jeavons mandatory prevailing party costs order for discovery intended to benefit them in Barton v. Berry and these State Bar proceedings. Berry Decl.paras.7-9. E.THE TRIAL DATE HEREIN NOW PRECEDES TRIAL IN BARTON V. BERRY. Irrespective of its ultimate outcome, Counts One through Three of the State Bars Notice of Charges concern the very same legal and factual matters as Barton [Church of Scientology] v. Berry. The trial date as to Counts One through Three is set for December 11,2001.The trial date in Barton [Church of Scientology] v. Berry has just been set for January 28,2001 in the Federal Bankruptcy Court. In the past, the State Bar of California has refrained from proceeding with disciplinary complaints from an opposing party while the underlying litigation, as here, is still unresolved. Berry Decl.paras.4, 5,6. F.THESE PROCEEDINGS HAVE BEEN INITIATED IN A BAD FAITH ATTEMPT TO DEPRIVE RESPONDENT OF HUMAN RIGHTS AND CIVIL RIGHTS. The terrorism policies of the Church of Scientology, and their application within this country, Europe and Australia are provable and have been judicially determined by this States Courts. See pages 4:24 - 5: 3 above. They are also well documented in the matters giving rise to the Church of Scientology's complaint and pressures upon the State Bar. Berry Decl.paras.6 -10,13,15.The Los Angeles Police Department has recently entered into a consent decree with the United States Department of Justice Civil Rights Division as a result, among other things, of witness tampering and evidence manufacture in the Rampart scandals. Obviously, the Civil Rights Division's work and concerns with the Los Angeles County legal system is far from over. IV. CONCLUSION For the foregoing reasons, the Court must grant Respondent's motion________. Respectfully Submitted, Dated: September 21, 2001. Graham E. Berry // // // // // // DECLARATION OF GRAHAM E. BERRY I, Graham E. Berry, declare and state as follows: 1. I am the Respondent herein. I am an attorney at law licensed to practice law before all of the courts of the States of California and New York, the State of New South Wales in the Commonwealth of Australia and the Dominion of New Zealand. I have also practiced as an 'overseas lawyer' with a New York law firm office in London England .I have practiced law in California since I was admitted here in June, 1987.I have personal knowledge of the facts set forth herein, and if called upon, would so testify thereto. 2. This declaration is filed in connection with my motion to extend time to respond to the State Bars pending Discovery Requests. (a) I have engaged in "meet and confer" communications with the State Bar. They have been unsuccessful and no reply to my latest letter has been received. See Exhibits A, B and C hereto. (b) Through this motion I am requesting a further 21 days to complete the State Bar's discovery. As already offered to the State Bar, I am prepared to submit my responses to the State Bar on an on-going section-by-section process. The Requests for Admission have been answered and served. Exhibit E hereto. To show my good faith in this regard, I have already served draft partial responses to nearly one third of the interrogatories responses and I expect to serve responses to approx. another third of the interrogatories on September 24,2001.See Exhibits C, E and G hereto. The documents can then be made available, organized as requested. There will be many 'bankers boxes'. (c) I am completing these Interrogatory responses very carefully. I am of the view that the completed responses, along with the related Chronology of Events and References to Supporting Evidence, will be invaluable to this Court, and to other courts and agencies in these and the related matters, and the motions to vacate the underlying orders that are at issue herein. Among other things, the Wager deposition confession, and similar evidence of criminal conduct by certain of the Church of Scientology attorneys, constitutes newly obtained evidence. Also, it is financially impossible for me to pay those sanctions orders-notwithstanding the State Bar's Counts charging me with "willful disobedience" of those orders (Counts Four, Five, Seven, Eight and Nine). If I could pay the orders I would not be living on food stamps, general relief and the charity of friends and strangers. Then there is the Ninth Count regarding the Ander's case. See Exhibit B (Interrogatory Responses 33-35), Exhibit J. 3.Attached hereto, and marked by the letters indicated, are true and correct copies of the following documents: Exhibit A: "Meet and confer" letter from Respondent to The State Bar dated September 17,2001. Exhibit B: "Meet and confer" letter from State Bar to Respondent dated September 18,2001. Exhibit C: "Meet and confer" letter from Respondent to State Bar dated September 19,2001. Exhibit D: State Bar Requests for Admissions 1-16. Exhibit E: Respondent's Response to Requests For Admission 1-16. Exhibit F: State Bar Interrogatories 1-44, served September 19,2001. Exhibit G: Respondents [draft] partial responses to State Bar Interrogatories, served September 19,2001. Exhibit H: State Bar Demand for Inspection and Copying 1-13. Exhibit I: In re Graham E. Berry, Barton v. Berry: Memorandum of Decision re Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment. Exhibit J: Letter from Respondent to plaintiff's counsel in Northwestern v. Anders dated September 19,2001. Exhibit K: Fax letter from Successor counsel for Anders to the State Bar dated September 21,2001. 4. Certain of the matters herein are still being litigated against the Church of Scientology which retained Gerner and Wager to file and pressure the pursuit of these State Bar proceedings in respect of the same matters. The same allegations made in Counts One, Two and Three of the State Bar's Notice of Charges are the basis for the Church of Scientology's Bankruptcy Adversary Proceeding In re Graham E. Berry; Barton v. Berry, Case No. LA 99-32264/Adv.No. LA 00-02817-ER.Ordinarily, the State Bar would not proceed with a disciplinary complaint filed by an opposing litigant while an underlying case is still proceeding. However, there is little about these matters that is ordinary. In I have requested the State Bar stipulate to an Abatement of these proceedings. It refused. 5.On August 16,2001 the Bankruptcy Court denied the Cult's Motion For Summary Judgment in Barton v. Berry. See Exhibit I. At a Status Conference on September 20,2001 the Federal Bankruptcy Court scheduled a trial date of January 28,2001 concerning the very same allegations, in essence, that the State Bar Court is trying in Counts One to Three on December 11,2001.The State Bar has insisted upon the December 11,2001 trial date not being moved because of the lead Deputy Trial Counsel's (Terri Goldade, Esq) maternity and birth schedule. However, these absolute and other matters herein are effectively denying me Due Process in these and the related underlying matters. 6. The Church, through Moxon & Kobrin, placed a Barton costs lien on my condominium. The condominium could have been sold privately for $367,500.00 but the Church refused to release it's lien even though it could have received over half of it's claimed costs order in the Barton v. Berry matter. It claimed the lien gave it better security! Other sales were available but the Church of Scientology (through Moxon/Kobrin/Paquette) refused to lift the lien in exchange for a partial payment. On or about August 9,2001 the property was sold in foreclosure for approx.$329,000.00-suffuciant only to meet the outstanding first and second mortgages. Because of the Church of Scientology's illusory "security", none of my other creditors (including the Home Owners Association) could share in some of the real value and equity in the property. Why? Because the outstanding Barton costs order, and the outstanding Jeavons sanctions order enable the Church of Scientology's lawyers to regularly "examine under oath" [depose] me in what are really Church of Scientology "intelligence cycles" or " intell ops." 7.Using the Jeavons v. Church of Scientology sanctions order (State Bar Notice of Charges Count Seven) the Church of Scientology is now conducting discovery to try and find something incriminating in the foreclosure proceedings, and attempts to sell the property prior to foreclosure for the benefit of other creditors, to use in the Barton v. Berry case where discovery has long been closed. The State Bars pending discovery is also right on point for the Church of Scientology's use in it's Barton v. Berry trial one month later. The Church of Scientology filed the Barton and Jeavons matters at the same approximate time that it had complainants Gerner and Wager commence and pressure these proceedings-at that time primarily in connection with the Hurtado v. Berry case (really part of Count Ten herein - Berry v. Cipriano, Barton, Miscavige (Moxon, Abelson & Ingram). The evidence of serious criminal conduct involving attorneys Moxon, Kobrin, Abelson, Wager and others is now irrefutably evidenced, despite the State Bar's refusal to recognize it and determination to keep such evidence out of this case and off any public record (e.g. the Wager deposition transcript). Wager is President of the Los Angeles County Criminal Lawyer's Bar Association! In the Jeavons v. Church of Scientology sanctions matter (Count Seven herein), the Church of Scientology (through Paquette of Moxon & Kobrin) deposed (examined under oath) Respondent on August 8,2001, require a document production on September 25,2001 and are conducting yet another deposition (examination under oath) of Respondent on September 26,2001.Perhaps posthumously. Using the Jeavons sanctions order, the Church of Scientology seized and sold Respondent's 1988 vehicle earlier this year. Ava Paquette, Esq. submitted a declaration to the court stating that the vehicle was worth $8,300.00.Respondent submitted a declaration as to Kelly Blue book value of less than $1,900.00 and repairs in excess of $2,000.00 being required. The vehicle was apparently sold for $900.00.Respondent has received no subsequent notifications as to the disposition of his vehicle. Applicable law requires that Respondent receive the first $1,900.00 of any sale. Ava Paquette, Esq had advised both court and respondent that the Church of Scientology has received the sum of $900.00 from the sale of Respondent's vehicle. // 8. Again using (or misusing) the Jeavons sanctions order, the Church of Scientology, through Ava Paquette, Esq. of Moxon & Kobrin, is now seeking discovery as to the identity and details of those involved in the grant of food stamps and general relief to me. They are also taking discovery as to how I am managing to pay the photocopying and other expenses involved in these State Bar proceedings that were initiated by the very same Church of Scientology. 9. The Church of Scientology operates its intelligence, intimidation and harassment activities through its Office of Special Affairs ("OSA" or Department 20 on the Organization Chart or "Org. Board). Department 20 includes a large Legal Unit. It includes: Kendrick L.Moxon, Esq; Helena Kobrin, Esq; Ava Paquette, Esq; Elliot Abelson, Esq; and William T.Dresher Esq. That is where their real offices are located despite their State Bar addresses on record. They practice "law" behind armed high security and dozens of surveillance cameras. Documents seized by the F.B.I. evidence that the Church of Scientology's written policies and procedures require that all evidence connecting the Church of Scientology and it's lawyers to criminal activity be kept in locked "Red Boxes". This is known to Department 20 as "Red Box Data." 10. All of the matters herein stem from the First Cipriano declaration executed May 5,1994.The Church's policies state that when it wants someone "haunted" it "investigates". This part of the Church of Scientology's 'psycho-terror' tactics is set forth in it's Fair Game Policies and Practices. Some of these Fair Game Policies and Practices can be outlined briefly. The purpose of the [law] suit is to harass and discourage rather than to win..." One could substitute State Bar Complaint. See generally, SB Rule 3-200. I previously filed a Trial Exhibits Appendix E herein which the court, on September 7,2001,ordered removed the court files. Exhibit A thereto was the examination under oath of a former Church of Scientology intelligence operative. It is called the Intelligence Officers Hat Pack. It contains his job description, training, practices and policies. These include: How to steal other peoples frequent flyer miles and invest. communications; Volunteer Minister/Investigations Officer training Manuel, including espionage, covert ops, noisy investigations, security infiltration, on waging war, BATTLE TATICS (p.138), BLACK PROPAGANDA (p.145), On War (p.149),]. Ex.11 was the document that describes how the volunteer minister/investigation officers are going to handle "attackers" and how their productivity/success/failure statistics will be calculated for job performance and punishment purposes.Ex.12 was an 'Invest Drill' or set of staff instructions regarding the employment of private investigators through OSA lawyers.Ex.12 and 13 were two OSA investigation check lists. Ex.15 was the Church of Scientology/OSA/Moxon & Kobrin "Manual of Justice." Pages 183 and 184 described the purpose of scientology investigations: " when we need someone haunted we investigate." Page 186 described the punishment of church critics who have been driven into bankruptcy, suicide and mysterious death. Ex.16 was a Church of Scientology form for the preparation of a BATTLE PLAN. p.189.Ex.17; p.191 states that the church's "attackers" have "appointed [the Church] their executioners." Ex.17, p.185 defines Black Propaganda. The seven-year campaign to defame, discredit and destroy me relied heavily upon Black Propaganda. For example: Elliot Abelson, Esq.'s letter to my parents; the Esquire Magazine article; the Can Reform Group publication [Barton, Chait, Shaw]; Moxon's Declaration and the "highly defamatory" Church of Scientology letter to my friend former New Zealand Government Minister of Finance Hon. David Caygil. App. D, Ex.26, 26A, 26B;the history detailed in App., Ex.3, para.152 (p.235)-para.237 (p.253). Page 204/205 described how the Church's Intelligence files are to be kept. Ex.18, p.213, describes how Volunteer Ministers and Intelligence Officers are to engage in Black Propaganda of critics: Hubbard, the Church's founder, wrote "In modern times there is no such check on Black Propaganda." Ex.17, p.217 describes the process of Dead Agenting critics. The Church of Scientology, Moxon, Kobrin, Paquette, Wager, Abelson, et al. engaged in this Hubbard technology against me. App.F, Ex.3, 152-137(p.235-253). See also page 222-225.The manufacture and continuing world-wide publication of the First Cipriano Declaration is an egregious example of the Church of Scientology's "psycho -terror" policies such as Fair Game, Black Properganda, Dead Agenting and Battle Tatics.And these activities have been demonstrably engaged in by the Church of Scientology lawyers identified herein. On page 223: "PR IS OVERT. INTELLIGENCE IS COVERT." Page 227 further describes "Intelligence Actions." On page 230 TARGETS, DEFENSE mandates "obliterating" all non-scientologists and taking over the news media, key political figures, international finance, etc. See page 231.Pages 233-235 further deal with BATTLE TATICS: " one cuts of…funds, connections…he raids and harasses." Pages 236-238 describe how the Church's Public Investigations Section is to operate. Pages 243 to 317 deal with the handling of Suppressive Persons such as myself and lists of Church of Scientology enemies (out of date). Since the death of its founder L.Ron Hubbard, the scientology enterprise cannot change any of these policies (" The Integrity of Source"). Indeed, these forgoing exhibits from App. A, Ex. B were issued less than ten years ago, and after I was retained to successfully represent former Church of Scientology lawyer Joseph Yanny. He terminated his legal services to the Church of Scientology after being requested by the Church of Scientology to engage in illegal conduct, including the theft of opposing counsel Charles B.O'Reilly's medical records. He still looks over his shoulder. He was also severely damaged by the cults terror operatives. Their activities broke up his partnership with the Brown, Green & Broilett law firm in Santa Monica. Michael Flynn, Esq. suffered through 23 Massachusetts State Bar complaints filed against him by the Church of Scientology. Eventually he was paid over six million dollars never to represent anyone against the Church of Scientology again. I have refused to discuss such possibilities although the Church has denied they were the ones who brought the subject up. SB Rule 2-109.Indeed, there is a long list of lawyer victims of the cult that causes almost all lawyers to refuse to represent any litigant against it. Indeed, there are now people being victimized by the cult as a result of my being "benched" by the cults activities against me and it's initiation of these largely baseless proceedings. I happen to have been schooled in the belief that all lawyers should accept such requested representation despite the threat of facing Scientology litigation terrorism. I further believe that our citizens should not be deprived of legal representation by the terror-tactics and corruption of a wealthy litigation juggernaut engaged in legal blitzkriegs at an annual Church of Scientology cost exceeding $40 million. The Paul, Hastings, Janofsky & Walker and Williams & Connally law firms are the major beneficiaries of this litigation blood money. So are non-scientologist lawyers such as Elliot Abelson and William T. Drescher. And the terrorist and financial misdeeds of this organization are still unraveling. I possess Church of Scientology documents relating to "the Albania Project". This was a Church of Scientology and World Institute of Scientologists operation to take over Albania and it's banking system. Interestingly, it is now being reported that much of the terrorist money involved in the September 11,2001 tragedies, and other acts of terrorism involving Osama bin Laden, has been channeled through the Albania banking system. 11. At the Early Neutral Evaluation Conference herein, it was recommended that I move to vacate the underlying sanctions orders upon the grounds of impossibility to pay. Moreover, the related Criminal conduct constitutes a fraud upon the underlying courts, invalidating those and the vexatious litigant order. The impact of that order, however improperly obtained, makes that an onerous process. Orders must be obtained in the underlying Berry v. Cipriano, Barton, Miscavige [Moxon, Abelson/Ingram] case, the underlying State and Federal Pattinson v. Church of Scientology cases and the Jeavons v. Church of Scientology case. This process alone will require approx.90 days. The current disputes and State Bar discovery have interrupted the commencement of that process which also requires considerable additional research and briefing. Indeed, the Chronology of Events being prepared is critical to the interests of justice herein and in putting the newly obtained Wager and related evidence before the underlying courts. The Court has already seen that evolving 84-page chronology and reference to supporting evidence. It requires approx.30 days of further work and document review to complete. The Chronology is also necessary in connection with the court's denial of due process herein by, inter alia, requiring me to prepare motions showing "good cause" before I serve any discovery herein and striking my existing discovery in response to an improperly filed motion. Of course, if the these motions to vacate are successful then these, or part of these, proceedings would be mooted or, if trial has already taken place herein, then this Court's orders may have to be vacated. None of those scenarios promote judicial economy, judicial efficiency or promote the furtherance of justice. 12. Completion of the Chronology of Events and Reference to Supporting Evidence, and the State Bar's Interrogatories, will enable me to seek the assistance of pro bono State Bar specialist counsel, and also malicious prosecution and abuse of process counsel in connection with the Hurtado State and Federal cases involving the Church of Scientology, Kendrick L. Moxon, Esq., Helena Kobrin, Esq., Ava Paquette, Esq., Donald Wager, Esq., Elliot Abelson, Esq., Thomas Byrnes, Esq. and others. The Church of Scientology, through it's complainants herein, continues to engage in the obstruction, inter alia, in that regard. Of course, much of my requested discovery (including post December 2000 communications between the Church of Scientology representatives and the State Bar Deputy Trial Counsel) that the Church of Scientology and the State Bar has thus far obstructed herein, will likely and ultimately be permitted in the later malicious prosecution and abuse of process litigation concerning the Berry v. Cipriano, Barton, Miscavige (Moxon, Abelson, Ingram) and Hurtado v. Berry cases - that have been and are at issue herein. The State Bars refusal to stipulate to any extensions, and the continuing State Bar and Church of Scientology discovery and trial pressure are hampering my ability to provide requested documents to law enforcement in connection with aspects of these pending matters. 13. I am not only partially and temporarily disabled by severe depression due to the obstruction and corruption of justice by the Church of Scientology and it's represesntatives, I am also on food stamps and general relief. I have no legal, secretarial or administrative assistance at all. I must do every little detail myself. I have little to no formal word processing and computer training. Thus I am disadvantaged more than most attorneys. The Church of Scientology must have intended I be dead by now. Others have claimed that. And a Church of Scientology lawyer has written: " Like Lazarus, Berry has risen from the dead." I have been warned by senior Los Angeles law enforcement that my physical safety may be at risk. When assisting the German government I have been provided with German Secret Service protection against the Church of Scientology. Many German States preclude government and judicial employment of scientologists because their oaths to serve the greater good of scientology prevail over, and are inconsistent with, their oaths to serve the German constitution and laws. Indeed, the German government has had the Church of Scientology under total surveillance. Like many other governments outside of the United States, the German government considers the Church of Scientology to be a subversive organization engaged in terrorism, totalitarian political domination, commercial activities, financial fraud and criminal activities. These are matters creating their own unique stress levels and leading me to request the relief I have in these proceedings. 14. In addition, like many other Americans, I was shocked out of productivity for nearly one week following the tragic events of September 11,2001 in New York, where I used to practice and subsequently do business from California. But for the pending trial on these State Bar matters, I would have traveled to New York and volunteered at ground zero of the World Trade Center terrorist attacks. 15. I am one of the few attorneys who have successfully and repeatedly litigated against the Church of Scientology. In 1993 the Church told me that if I were not leading a team of ten lawyers it would have destroyed me long ago. As indicated above, the Church of Scientology's subsequent seven-year campaign to "utterly destroy" me " by any means possible " [primarily using the perjured First Cipriano Declaration] caused me to stand alone and cost me my residence of over ten years in which I had planned to retire. 16. In April of this year I moved into a house owned by a former scientologist whose husband had given over a million dollars of the community property to the Church of Scientology during their marriage. He testified, in essence, during the divorce, that he would have killed her if scientology required him to do so. One of their sons slept with an axe under his bed as protection against his scientologist father. She, and her friends, bravely refuse to let the Church of Scientology intimidate her into throwing me into the street- where the church of Scientology wants me. Indeed, the Church of Scientology v. Fishman & Geertz defamation case, which I successfully defended, involved allegations of Church of Scientology involved in financial fraud, murder and instructions to commit suicide ("end of cycle processing"). 17. As a result of the move from my condo to her home I had to move approx.300 boxes of documents. Many contain materials relevant to these proceedings. Days and days of time are required to properly go through those boxes for the documents being required by the current State Bar discover requests. Concurrent with my move, the Church of Scientology filed an unsuccessful motion for summary judgment in the Barton [Church of Scientology] v. Berry case. It consumed me until late June. The Jeavons and State Bar matters have consumed me since then. The Barton v. Berry trial (involving the State Bars Counts One through Three) must now also consume me. And somehow I must find time for Rule 11 motions and to vacate the underlying orders that are at issue herein. The State Bar refuses an Abatement or continuance for any reason. The lead Deputy Trial Counsel has stated to the Court, in effect, that she must personally prosecute these proceedings before mid-December because of her maternity and childbirth schedule. That is an interesting position in light of the January 28,2002 trial date for the Barton v. Berry case which is a component part of these proceedings. 18. In any event, I am now being denied, in all of the unique circumstances herein, an opportunity to conduct discovery and to prepare an effective defense at trial. I need the requested 21-day extension of time for health, workload and due process reasons. Even then I will have received and aggregate extension of less than 30 days. An unusual situation in connection with such comprehensive discovery requests-particularly in the circumstances herein.

Deputy Trial Counsel The State Bar of California Office of the Chief Trial Counsel Enforcement 1149 South Hill Street Los Angeles, CA 90015-2299 Re: Case No. 99-0-12791, Complainants: Michael Gerner, Esq., and Donald Wager, Esq. [Real Parties In Interest: Church of Scientology International Office of Special Affairs; Kendrick L. Moxon, Esq.; Helena Kobrin, Esq.; Ava Paquette, Esq.; Elliot Abelson, Esq.; Samuel D. Rosen, Esq.; Donald Wager, Esq.; Thomas Byrnes, Esq.; Eugene Ingram] Dear Ms. Goldade and Mr. Hernandez: I am in receipt of your September 17,2001 fax. As things have turned out, I cannot borrow a vehicle tomorrow afternoon but I can on Wednesday September 14,2001 at 3 p.m. Accordingly, I shall be picking up the specified documents at that time. Please advise me if that is not convenient. I will be in a position to provide a substantial response to your pending discovery by weeks end. You will receive a response to the Requests For Admission on Wednesday afternoon. However, I will need some additional time for a complete response to the interrogatories and inspection demands. Bearing in mind the requirements in connection with the Settlement Conference, three additional weeks (effectively two) should suffice if I am not snowed with additional demands by either you or the Church of Scientology, which also continues to seek discovery against me. Accordingly, please treat this letter as a "Meet and Confer" in connection with a Request For Extension of Time until Friday October 12, 2001 .I would agree to fax serve you partial interrogatory responses by 9 a.m. Monday. Otherwise, I will need to file a motion for a similar extension of time. If you are so agreeable, I am prepared to fax you updated draft responses every few days or otherwise in accordance with your reasonable requests. Please advise me of your response by close of business Tuesday September 18, 2001. In addition, you have repeatedly alleged that I have misrepresented statements by you. However, you have never indicated what it is that I have allegedly misrepresented or taken out of context. Accordingly, I would be grateful for your views as to what I have allegedly misrepresented or taken out of context. That way I can take any appropriate corrective action, if I agree. In any event, I submit that it is improper to accuse opposing counsel of wrongful conduct without being willing to specify what the alleged wrongful conduct is. As for your statements as to a discrepancy in the boxes being returned, all documents listed were delivered. Ms.Barnes made no post-delivery observations as to any missing documents. However, in any matters involving the Church of Scientology, documents regularly disappear from official government files, court files, libraries, offices, homes, etc. According to testimony and documents, this is in accordance with the Church's policies and practices in connection with "removing entheta from the environment and the planet." In normal non-cult English, 'removing' documents, which are critical of the church or represent bad public relations for the church. There is available testimony on this very issue. Indeed, Kendrick L. Moxon, Esq. was named as a co-conspirator in connection with a massive theft of documents from the United States Government. The Church did not want the U.S.Government in continued possession of those "entheta" or critical documents. This church infiltration and "culling" of federal government records was called "Operation Snow White." It is believed to continue today. Official church documents evidence that Operation Snow White was still in existence in 1989.Accordingly, it would not surprise scientology litigation veterans if documents involving scientology and its covert operations have disappeared from the State Bar files. They also disappeared from court files in Berry v. Cipriano and in the Berry bankruptcy cases filed by the Church of Scientology and its shills Moxon, Barton, Church of Scientology International etc. They have also disappeared in other cases. Within the last two years, Scientology documents were also stolen from the Swedish Parliament records and files concerning the scientology cult. Indeed, Germany has the Church of Scientology under surveillance as a psycho-terrorism group, totalitarian political movement, commercial and criminal enterprise. Very truly yours, Graham E.

Do you have any objection to the extension and arrangements proposed in my September 17,2001 letter? Please advise me so that I may make the appropriate representation as part of my "meet and confer" declaration. To demonstrate my good faith, I am enclosing Responses to the Request For Admissions and a partial draft of the Interrogatory Responses. In that regard, I am happy to fax you partial Interrogatory Responses, charge by charge/count by count, as they are completed. The same applies to documents. For example, the documents in connection with Count Nine comprise approx. one expanded redwell folder. My only concern is security for these originals while you are inspecting or copying. These responses are consuming 8-12 hours of my time every day. In light of the volume of materials involved, and my health, I cannot move faster. After the interrogatory responses are completed, I will consult with several ethics counsel in an effort to obtain pro bono representation. I await your response. Sincerely yours, Graham E. Berry Enclosures: Responses to Requests For Admission. Partial Draft, Interrogatory Responses.
