Re: Seizure of attorney laptops in Probate court
Dear Judge Evans;
I am in receipt of your cursory letter sent my snail mail to my offices.
However, snail mail is very costly to the taxpayers and emails and
efax are much more efficient and I strongly encourage you to use those.
I promise you I will respond promptly to all communications, generally
in a day or two, so do not worry about non receipt of mail.
Further, the USPS readily admits from studies that are decades old
and extremely consistent, that only 95% of snail mail reaches its
destination in 5 days! I think email easily beats that statistic hands
down.
As you may or may not know, this issue is part of a much larger issue
going on in the Probate Court right now and we have a very active blog
on all aspects of a case which is extremely contentious and appears to
be the center of substantial corruption and wiring.
Discussions among the attys that are helping out the client pro bono are lively and active.
The seizure of the laptop has become part of those discussions, and
one of the attys on the blog is extremely active and eloquently
outspoken, so I thought perhaps you might enjoy his comments. Below is
the post for today, of which you are a subject.
Ken Ditkowsky says that Judge Timothy Evans sent me a bug letter
Posted on June 23, 2012
Posted on June 23, 2012
Dear Readers;
As you well know, last December 2011 my laptop was seized when Adam
Stern whined to Judge Connors that I was blogging (soon the transcripts
will appear on the first page of this blog, I am working on that), So
finally, finally I got a response from Cook County presiding judge
Timothy Evans after 3 faxes and waiting about 2 weeks. (I guess he has
no law clerks or staff).
in any case, see below:

https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B6FbJzwtHocwQVh3bm5fbWU3VkE (cut and paste link)
Obviously, the letter says nothing in response to consititutional
rights, the ability to best serve your client, etc. but Ken Ditkowsky
had an even better anecdote regarding a “bug letter.”
KD’s anecdote:
“Many years ago before the age of computers on every desk, the Illinois Central Railroad ran trains to Southern Illinois. The trains had windows that opened, and sometimes passengers were harassed by insects. On one such trip a traveler was so upset that he wrote to the Chairman of the IC to complain.
In the 40?s and 50?s Banks and large institutions had automatic typewriters – these were typewriters that we very much like player pianos. A secretary would type a master, and then another secretary would fill in the details such as name, address, etc.
Anyhow, our traveler received a letter very similar to what you received, and in the unsophisticated era the personal signature totally mollified him – until he turned the letter over and saw in pencil the words: “send bug letter.”
It is a shame that everyone is watching what appears to be a crime being committed, i.e. a 93 year old lady, kidnapped and robbed and the thieves acting in concert with the judicial system. The Illinois legislature enacted the Sodini protections and made the protections jurisdictional to prevent exactly what has happened in the Sykes case. Now for four years this Gulag has continued in full sight of law enforcement, the highest ranking judicial officials, and the world. Mary Sykes has been totally deprived of her liberty, her property, civil rights and even human rights in full sight. Approximately a million dollars in assets have been illegally sequestered by the thieves who have the temerity to brag in open court of the perfidy! (see Sykes transcripts)
The distinction between Chicago street crime and guardian crime is that the ‘thugs’ are not ‘minority individuals’ not Italian mafia etc. They are ‘clout’ heavy political types who have for many years ‘played’ the system to make their bread at the public expense. By targeting Grandma who they could characterize as senile they are apparently safe as their co-conspirators cover their tracks with CYA letters, intimidation, and deceit! These criminals are just as vicious as the gang member who grabs grandma’s purse and throws her onto the elevated tracks! The only distinction is the the judicial system protects them. Shame, Shame, Shame.
The attached letter from Judge Evans is a symptom of the corruption that gave rise to Watergate, Greylord, Sykes, etc. It is difficult to speak to deaf ears glued onto public officials whose sole aim in life is CYA. Rest assured, at some point in time the right combination of circumstances will occur. How many years did Sandusky prey on male children? How many responsible people watched? What did the public authorities do? How many lives did the SOB ruin?
Why are the public officials who ignored the problem not in the ‘dock?’ Every one of them Aided and abetted the criminal activities while they occurred – each should be independently prosecuted and sent to jail as an Accessory during the fact. Each public official who ignored a complaint letter or other communication had an affirmative duty (parens Patrie) and in ignoring his/her duty assisted in the crime. These elder abuse cases are identical. Today – all the is required of the public officials (who have nothing to hide – those who do should take the fifth) is to demand a complete honest and comprehensive investigation of all the facts of the Sykes case.”
Sigh, now I have to send him a fax saying that his letter was non responsive, I will make the security guy aware of the letter, but the reality is lawyers protect our rights and not security people. I have yet to see a cop or security officer say, you have important constitutional rights and I want to protect those. Nope, their mantra is “an arrest a day keeps the sarge away.”
I don’t think the Hon. Timothy Evans knows that I am serious enough to sue him over this because it is a very important right to be able to take notes in court when needed and to do the best possible job for your client.
So more faxes. I will let you know if I get a real response from him or if I have to go to a federal court district judge to do it.
thanks all.

There were other comments I receive about your letter, but KD”s was clearly the best, hands down.
Kindly let me know if and when you decide to write a responsive
letter that protects the rights of attys and their clients in the
courtroom, and PULEEZE do not push off YOUR responsibility to “security”
who know nothing of these rights, don’t know, don’t care, aren’t being
paid to worry about anyone’s rights, and always seem surprised when a
lawyer brings up the fact that due process and constitutional rights
were supposed to be part of a class and exam passed in 6th grade!
I already had a discuss with the courtroom employees over
constitutional rights, and they admitted security personnel knew
“nothing about” that (due process and constitutional rights” and they
said that was not their job to know these things or evaluate these
things.
I agree.
I agree.
So why are you passing something to a department that knows nothing
of these things, readily admits it, and they say they take their
direction from the court after the lawyers argue their respective
points?
All good questions, but where are the good answers.
Very Truly Yours,
DENISON & ASSOCS, PC
