ALL IS NOT QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT. I have just had a very interesting conversation with Graham Berry. He was my attorney in my case "Pattinson vs David Miscavige et alia" until recently when the cult of Scientology put him out of business by covert and criminal tactics. I have lost my only defender of my interests in the case I brought against Scientology in 1998, not due to lack of merits of my case but due to severe abuses of process, lies, deceit, skulduggery, perjury, bribery, harassment, enforced bankruptcy, and more.... OSA got me put out of business, bankrupted and otherwise "ruined" with their "Fair Game tactics they have become notorious for. In the USA, it would appear, if you don't have money you can't have justice. He with the most dollars wins, apparently. That kind of justice keeps the innocent citizen cowed and broke and lets the criminals continue their pillagings. The costs of litigating are huge, and the cult is the one with the scammed and stolen millions to use to defend itself against the ordinary person who has fallen victim to their scam. It is like bank robbers who use their stolen loot to pay lawyers to get them off the hook and to pay hit-men to kill off the opposition. Do you remember such expressions as "What goes around comes around?' "You reap what you sow", etc....? Well, let me tell you what the current news is with regard to Scientology's tactics to destroy Graham Berry, his clients and friends. These tactics are at the point of fully recoiling on the cult, and that process is happening. THE CULT MOB'S TACTICS PAINT THEMSELVES INTO A CORNER After years of trying to smash Graham to pieces because he dared to say NO to the scam Scientology runs on its victims the cult's litigation mob of attorneys, P.Is, lackeys, OSA goons and Int Management scammers are treading on very thin ice. They have failed in their massive attack on Graham. he is still active against the crime cult and is speaking out. They have failed to silence me too. Both Graham and I are still both speaking out,....and more. The Hubbard-programmed drones have used such illegal and felonious tactics that the recoil is going to come back at them with all the force that they themselves put into their attacks against us. Such is the law of Life which none can oppose. They have put themselves out on such a limb that the twig they are now sitting on is about to break. Even some public officials, the California State Bar, and previously uninvolved false (paid) witnesses have become entangled in the web of deceit woven by the cult and its "Dept 20" covert operations gangsters. I have seen judges deceived by the lies of the cult's lawyers, crimes covered up with smoke-screens of counter-accusations, and paid witnesses sue Graham to tie him up in spurious lawsuits and drain his very limitd funds. You see, Graham was supposed to have been wiped out quickly, silenced and disposed of "quietly an without sorrow" per Hubbard's own dictates in his "policy letters". That just DID NOT HAPPEN. he held firm, took the bullets, continued fighting and is now turning the tide. The "Office of Special Affairs", i.e. Dept 20 of Scientology, formerly known as the "Guardians Office" but now renamed as "OSA" has a history of criminality. Eleven of its Hubbard-related staff went to prison in the late 70's for the biggest infiltration of the US government in history. Hubbard went into hiding till he died in 1986 under highly suspicious circumstances. He let his wife Mary Sue take the rap for him, as well as 10 other loyal cult members. For those interested in the history of Scientology's criminality and foul play tactics go to www.groups.google.com then to "alt.religion.scientology" newsgroup. Enter a search for "Reposted classics" and have a good read. That is all history. It would make a great film. Anyway....the cult mob's recent tactics of intense "fair game"(NOT "fair play!")took Graham Berry into a severe bankruptcy condition. This was both provoked and opposed in Court (to make it very hard to deal with) by OSA with the activities of a part of Dept 20 which they set up as a "law firm" of "Moxon and Kobrin". OSA channels its tactics and policies of attack through this "firm" as though it were something fully separate from the inner workings of OSA and the Int Management. Not so in reality. Moxon was a part of the original infiltration team from the Dept 20 "Guardian's Office" and gave the FBI false handwriting samples to ruin their investigations, but was not indicted, I know not why. Kobrin is a long-time committed Scientologist. Things were not going so well for Graham for a very long while. Lack of funds, attacks by a vicious group of litigation thugs, covert black operations etc... all hampered his efforts to reveal the truth about the cult's scam, its racketeering and bilking of thousands of people by false promises of special para-normal powers which they can not deliver. Recently, however, the tide is turning. A short while ago it did not look that way. OSA got Graham "declared" a "vexatious litigant" falsely and maliciously by a judge (Williams) that I personally observed was NOT impartial in the case. His uncontrolled emotional negative outburst at Graham after his seething pronouncement of judgement was very telling to those present in the courtroom that day. OSA then filed compaints with the California State Bar to try to get Graham disbarred. Instead of folding under the pressure Graham fought back with Truth and evidence. That case is still in progress, as outlined below. The other, bankruptcy, case against Graham got so "hot" that the original Judge (Marcus) recused himself (took himself off the case) because letters he had received in great volume from the public (probably showing the criminal nature of the Scientology cult) had made him no longer un-biased in the case. Now a new Judge (Brott) is taking charge of the proceedings. When I filed my case in 1998 OSA used the tactic of getting one of their staff members to sue me, gave him the use of Scientology's own lawyers,rammed the case through the Court into a "summary judgement" where I was ordered to pay him (Michel Reveillere) $64,000 as repayment of a private loan of $20,000 and $44,000 interest!! I could not pay, they took my car away, and forced me to declare bankrutcy in 1999. I had to dismiss my case (but it can still be refiled) due to lack of funds and other fair game negative OSA tactics. While my own case was going on, in a part of the process known as "discovery", I had to give 11 full days of videoed depositions, hundreds of interrogatory questions to answer, all my original personal papers, financial records, private correspondence and Scientology-related documents to OSA. They lied to the judge and never gave us anything in "discovery"! Weasels of the lowest order, just like their "clients". They deserve each-other. In their attacks against Graham Berry the OSA mob has used litigation "hit men" (those who OSA pays or "persuades" by undue influence to file frivolous complaints under false pretenses to tie someone up in vastly expensive litigation) such as Michael Hurtado, Anthony Apodaca, Robert Cipriano, and others such as, I believe, Glen Barton and Isadore Chait. These "private" lawsuits are all created by, defended and paid for by.......Scientology!! It appears now, as evidences accumulate, that Scientology has also infiltrated the California State Bar, as many lawyers have suspected for quite some time, and are railroading and/or sandbagging Graham through a State Bar prosecutor (Ms T. Goldade). At first, she apparently told the judge that she was proceeding with the prosecution of Graham in the Court of the California State Bar even thogh she was "not fully familiar with the facts because the files were too voluminous". Graham told me that this indicates that Ms Goldade went ahead not fully on her own determinism, and that she may have broken rules about pre-filing investigations being thorough in their review of facts and points of law. This could be most unfortunate for this prosecutor as, I believe, they can be held personally liable for their conduct if abuses are revealed. I have seen letters from Ms Goldade to Graham, and, knowing the cult's own tactics and policies over 24 years of membership I saw the style of the OSA scriptwriters and their "Black PR" technology applied all through them. Her letters are unprofessionally vitriolic, and show some disturbing hidden influences (in cult lingo; "3rd party" tech applied) in my honest opinion. Last week Judge Brott dismissed/cancelled all the points of the Berry bankruptcy opposition, except one minor one. This had to do with whether an account set up in Graham's friend Jane Scott's name had been or not part of the assets disclosed to the bankruptcy trustee. Strangely enough, (lol) then Ms Goldade over in the State Bar issued an interrogatory on that precise point! It looks to Graham like she was controlled into doing that so the Scientology lawyers behind her actions can get "discovery" on the bankruptcy point in advance of the bankruptcy case itself. Sneaky. It is also called collusion if revealed to be that the cult lawyers are running the show in the State Bar! The judge in the State Bar Court is now allowing both Graham and me to give and receive evidence to prove that our cases against Scientology have real merit, which they do. That means we can fianally get "discovery" documents etc by subpoena from Scientology. That was done very recently. We subpoena'd all the Scn lawyers for their documents and they can't stand it! All the lawyers who are subpoena'd to produce documents are being represented by Mr Gerner, an office mate of Mr Wager, who admitted in deposition (under oath) that he had personally paid Anthony Apodaca to falsely testify against Graham). Gerner has filed a motion to deny Graham any "discovery" and to delay the proceedings for a few weeks. In Graham's view this is to allow the attorneys etc..concerned to destroy evidence quickly, much as Judge Breckenridge found was done in the Armstrong case. One attorney (Chodos) says he "has no documents" as they don't keep things that old! Well, some of the Scientology docs concerned are for matters that are STILL UNDER LITIGATION! Another "gem" here is that the OSA litigation mob now claims that the docs on the Hurtado case (where a druggy male prostitute was hired to lie about and sue Graham, his case paid for by Scientology, but now he is in prison for stalking a woman with a knife) are "attorney-client privileged" even though a judge has ruled that out due to crime and fraud being involved. We can have the documents. We have a judge's permission to get full discovery so we can prove the merits of not only my case but also the Hurtado case, and those concerning Barton, Cipriano, Miscavige etc..... The Scn liars claim that their basis for refusing discovery is due to the rulings of Judges Snyder (my case) and Williams. Graham had many years as a malpractice attorney (which is going to be very useful later!! lol) and Graham has now educated Judge Brott on the point of a "case within a case" opportunity where a case has not gone to trial before and it needs to have a determination on its merits. As a result the Court agreed he could conduct "discovery" so that we can in fact prove that the cases had merit (were valid) as he is being accused in the State Bar Court that the cases were "meritless". It seems to me that now Graham can obtain all the discovery documents etc...for my own case as we originally wanted to. Then the evidence of validity of my case will be presented to the State Bar for determination of its definite validity, and all of his too. In fact all of Graham's filed cases had great merit but were criminally obstructed by the cult of Scientology. It seems to Graham that the California State Bar is acting in concert and collusion with Scientology. He even truly believes that the Scientology OSA lawyers are actually drafting the State Bar's own submitted documents (for Ms Goldade). As Graham has been prevented from doing business for about 2 years by all this stuff there may very well be a liability of the State Bar for loss of income, etc, etc.... And...what about the State bar Chief Counsel Micjael Nispero? Well, Graham told me that he has been about 6 months on the job, and has failed to answer all but one (humorous) communications and nothiong else in all that time!! Man, you talk about laying down on the job!! lol. I even filed a complaint with the California State Bar, as did keith Henson, Jane Scott and Graham against Moxon and Kobrin, as I know about the chicanery and criminality they get up to. We all got letters back from the State bar saying, in effect, that they had looked into the matter and found "nothing wrong" with Moxon and Kobrin's activities!! This is a farce. We have mounds of evidence to support our claims of perjury, witness tampering, frivolous litigation etc, etc... How many mounds does it need to show crime has been committed?? They ignored it all. That is another reason why I feel, sincerely, that the California State Bar is now doing Scientology's bidding. Miss Sandoval, of the State Bar, at the beginning of the proceedings, said that the Wager deposition (paying Apodaca to give false testimony) was " a smoking gun". Now, in a letter to Keith Henson last week she says there is "nothing wrong" Duhhh. More evidence of Scientology's infiltration of the State Bar is a communication by Samuel D.(Sandy) Rosen, of the law firm of Paul, Hastings, Janowsky and Walker to the District Attorney's Office (prosecutor) in Riverside County .... "We are having Graham Berry disbarred, so don't communicate with him".(when he was representing Keith Henson). The cult's influence may also have been behind the fact that Elliot Abelson's (the cult's lawyer as well as for the Gambino mafia family) friend/acquaintance Judge Wallerstein was assigned to try the Henson case and did so in such an outrageous fashion. It was disgusting. Graham told me he now has sufficient evidence to introduce the criminality of both the Scientology lawyers and the prosecutors now. The interesting point now is that; a) Graham believes the chicanery of the Henson case is relevant and essential to his cases as evidence, b) Keith Henson feels that the tactics against Graham berry are great evidence for his case and how he was treated. The spiritual irony here is that those who manufacture criminal conduct to use to frame others END UP WITH IT ALL COMING BACK AT THEMSELVES! "Operating Karma", and that's "O.K". ;-) As for Graham, even if the State Bar ruled against him he would only get a suspension for his "technical violation". The cult lawyers had originally accused him of misusing funds of mine..I knew he could not possibly have done what they said...I soon set them straight on that, and the judge threw that out. Graham would willingly accept a suspension as he wants to write his books on Scientology anyway. Graham did tell me, also, that now there is so much evidence of collusion between Scientology and The State Bar that "he would be damned if he would ever settle with them any more." Abelson even called Graham this week to "set up a meeting" with Moxon and Paquette (of Moxon and Kobrin infamy), as he had not grasped that Graham was only asking for a "meet and confer" phone call. Duhhh... x 2. What is particularly interesting here is that, when David Miscavige came out on stage grandstanding his apparent victory over the IRS (he only said "we got our tax-exempt status", he NEVER said that Scientologists WON the war!!!) he said that "we have ensured that no SP will ever be able to destroy the IRS-SCN agreement." Maybe they won't need to. The cult's own lawyers ae doing it. With all the use of tax-exempt dollars for fair game, the non-reforming (at all) of the litigation harassment etc, the continued existence of W.I.S.E, and the Guardian Office (Dept 20, CSI) continuing as OSA (Dept 20, CSI) and other matters....the tax-exempt status of scientology is now at severe risk. The cult lied to the IRS about these matters, and did not reform. (oh, that's SP!, as its no ethics gain!)....so now the whole agreement can be revisited by the Committees of the US House of Representatives and the US Senate. This is because the agrement is CONDITIONAL upon promises made to the IRS and these have NOT been kept. Period. This evidence will be presented to the House and Senate. On a personal note to DM......"We too have some pretty mean eagles about to hatch" lol. Stealth eagles. ALL THIS WILL RECOIL UPON THE CULT AND ITS CRIMINAL ELEMENTS. They will receive back what they have caused upon others. Trust me! Michael Pattinson. PS A huge idiocy in all the litigation proceedings I have been engaged in is THAT SCIENTOLOGY PROVIDED MY CASE TO GRAHAM BERRY! They arrogantly refused to apply standard policy for SIX YEARS on the grievances I evidenced. Never once have they offered to repair the financial damage and also give me back my money as I requested. I used all the internal lines and terminals, up to (down to?) DM. They would not do anything to solve the matter. I am a very very persistent person. It has now been 10 years, so maybe that will wake them up? It is not handled until I am satisfied that it is handled! Not when you have beaten me to a pulp! Now you only charged all that extra costs to your accounts with me. I will send the cult the bill if they want it. My own matters could have been easily settled while I was in the cult as a NEW OT8, but no......far too many O/Ws by Int Mgt to be kind and do the right thing. Too many Mission Holders riped off on that same chain, etc, etc, etc....... Well, DM, Starkey, Rathbun, Rinder, CST et alia...... that chain of yours is wrapping itself around your own neck. lol. "Hasta La Vista Davey>" lol.
