Plus, I have a ton of documents to share on this case.  As you know, SO and MS have sent me a stack of 541 pages and I have to make sure I have have all of those.

For the most part, I have about 30 emails to the ARDC with no response or just a form letter.  For some reason, they do not want to answer my correspondence. BUT at the last status call, Chair Lee (I believe) told SO to answer my emails to move the case along.

So far, nada, not even their usual form letters reminding me not to serve or file by email (which I have never done).  So what’s the point?

I have no idea why this court is so “out of control” but the reality is, it is very similar to a Probate Case which is being railroaded and no procedure is being followed and everyone that wants to say “hey, your honor, this is being railroaded” is told to shut up.  Again, there are similarities between what is going on in the ARDC proceedings with myself and KDD that absolutely, positively goes on in no other courtrooms–except probate and maybe family law, but family law is not my focus right now.

so read on below, I generally conclude that if the ARDC is not going to answer emails, answer basic questions and cooperate as opposing counsel in a gentile matter, I am respectfully asking them to DWP their case unless and until they intend to prosecute it or move it along to a trial on the merits.

This is very frustrating, as many lawyers will tell you, when OC will simply not cooperate, answer emails, work out any workable issues in advance, and smoothly advance the case to a trial on the merits.

BEFORE THE ILLINOIS ATTORNEY REGISTRATION AND DISCIPLINARY COMMISSION

In Re:
Commission No. 2013 PR 0001
JOANNE MARIE DENISON

Attorney-Respondent
Reg. No. 6192441

REPORT TO THE COURT

This Report to the Tribunal is being filed in order to move the above case along.  Primarily Atty Denison Has send numerous emails to the ARDC–and even the Chair himself, and 95% of the emails are unanswered, and not only does the Chair fail to answer, but despite the fact that opposing counsel was clearly cc’d on the email, the Chair claimed it was an “impermissible ex parte communication” and issued an order to that effect.

Therefore, the undersigned counsel is respectfully asking:

(And this should be the agenda for tomorrow’s meeting at 2:30 pm via teleconference):

1) SLAPP Motion.  This must be answered in 90 days or it is automatically appealable.  It is not a dispositive motion, but it is a mandate from the Illinois State Legislature to protect US citizens from having their first amendment rights from being trampled upon.

As of the writing of this Report, no answer has been received from the ARDC.  The due date is approximately July 3, 2013.

2) KDD’s transcript, after numerous and repeated requests from both KDD and myself, neither of us has received a copy of the transcript from his hearing so I can study it.  Transcripts generally take no more than a couple weeks to transcribe.    Why the refusal?

3) Sykes and Wyman are currently up on appeal for lack of jurisdiction.  I understand that the ARDC’s tribunal for KDD admitted Sodini notices were not served but said that it was wrongful conduct for KDD to ask his congressional representatives for an investigation regarding lack of jurisdiction in the Sykes case.  The Record on Appeal clearly indicates Mary Sykes, the Respondent was never served.  John Wyman’s mother was never properly served and that case is up on appeal.  Further, in Bedin, it would appear that Dolores Bedin, Janet and her brother Alexander were never served.  It would seem that if these cases are properly decided, that the blog and KDD and myself would be vindicated and the blog is not lacking substantial truth but it in fact has incredible truth in and of itself.

5) Attached as Exhibit A are a raft of emails sent to the ARDC with absolutely no answer, or I received about 3 form letters which clearly did not answer the issues presented or make any reasonable attempt to move the case along.  There approximately 24 number of emails to the ARDC and I received approximately 3 form letters back.

Unless my telephone connection was severely hampered during our last teleconference, I am asking once again, respectfully that the ARDC answer my emails in a prompt manner and to move the issues along.

6) Motion for Clairification. I believe this is a federal court motion used when a complaint is so deficient, it is difficult to know if it states a claim for which relief might be sought.  Again, I am respectfully asking the ARDC to send me questions before the file motions so these can be worked out in advance.  For example, the ARDC asked about how some allegations weren’t answered to their liking and a simple email might straighten out their questions regarding an answer to their allegations

7) Last Order: The last order did not properly reflect the fact that I withdrew most dispositive motions and discovery rather than having them stricken, and that they will become effective once again on the date the ARDC declares the “evidentiary record” become complete.

8) Expected Date and Tasks to Complete Record on Appeal: Because of the new KDD rule against disposibive motions, I am asking at this time for a date when the “record is complete” to file these motions.

9) Word Processing Documents for SCOTUS Petition I have also repeatedly emails SO and MS for original word processing documents because we need those for our petition to the US Sup. Ct. (SCOTUS), and I have not heard anything back.  All documents must be retyped and reformatted for SCOTUS.  To save on typing and OCR’ing, I would like to get these ASAP and I am perfectly willing to share these documents myself. (Illinois.ARDC@gmail.com) for document sharing.

10) Gmail Account for Pleadings/Documents I have set up a gmail account to share these documents needed for a SCOTUS petition for writ of certiorari and for emails because there are soooo many unanswered emails containing reasonable requests, I can’t keep track of them.  Also, all pleadings will be put up there for help during status calls so we can review the documents quickly and easily.  While SO did get me pages 1-541 of the record from the clerk, it came with a table with no pages numbers.  It would be nice to have page numbers so we can see where one document ends and the other begins.  Please send me or share the table so this can be fixed.

WHEREFORE:
It is respectfully submitted that the ARDC should either comply or cooperate as counsel in this matter. The ARDC should voluntarily DWP this particular case until such time as it can because it’s actions are not responsive and responsible and so as not to waste everyone’s valuable time and resources.

Respectfully Submitted,
