I had written about my parent’s petition to visit with my son in a previous post. Therein I had described that my parents were wishing to visit with my son, and I was opposed to this.
This case with my parents that was regarding my son, was after my own custody/visitation case regarding my son, and also after much of my support proceeding; so this “appointment of standby-council”, had been well established by the court by this time as they had already appointed standby council to me twice. Because of this, it isn’t surprising to see that they had appointed standby-council to me again a third time, with this new proceeding.
Now, according to uslegal.com, standby-council serves the purpose to (among other things) “allow the trial to proceed without the undue delays likely to arise when a layman presents his own case” and now my question is, how is it that these “undue delays” are so insignificant that they may be circumvented, but this same circumvention cannot be set fourth directly through any action of the court?
The way a courtroom works, is that the parties develop a record of facts, and then they use that record to ask for things. The judge then decides if what their asking for it supported by the facts on the record of the proceeding and also, if the law allows the court the power to grant the action(s) sought.
If a party asks the court to “allow the trial to proceed without the undue delays likely to arise when a layman presents his own case”, and the court can’t do that; how can it be considered that any action by the standby-council could then ‘allow the trial to proceed’?
In other words, if these same “undue delays” are inappropriate, or interfere with justice, then the court can “allow the trial to proceed” without these same “undue delays” because, if it can be considered that the court has the power to appoint standby-council to that same effect, then how can it be considered that the court does not have the power to “allow the trial to proceed” without the “undue delays”? When the court appoints standby-council, this is what they’re doing.
The only explanation which makes sense to me, is that this standby-council circumvents obstacles which were put in place to protect people from their government. The court appoints this standby-council, and then the standby-council says something like “there might be a possibility that this party is a bad father”, even though there isn’t anything on the record or otherwise, that supports that; And then because that same representation was made behalf of that party by an attorney which represents them, the law then allows “the trial to proceed”, in spite of the fact that the law does not allow it. What other effect could it be considered that the appointment of standby-council has?
I would love to hear a cohesive argument which explains how standby-council is just, and does something good, as I cannot think of such an argument myself and further, I can not believe that such a consideration could exist legitimately.
People have the right to represent themselves, here’s the law on it. It originates back to the Judiciary Act of 1789, which was signed into law by George Washington, when he was the president.
In closing, throughout my matters, I had come to recognize what I would characterize to myself as “the opposite day statue”. The court would recognize that the facts support a certain cause for action but then, they would then find that “today is opposite day”; so what the court would then do is instead the opposite…
This standby-council seems to be the most concise form of “the opposite day statue” which was applied, and because there’s no law against it, I suppose it’s perfectly legal.
When you put it that way I kind of understand what you mean if the standby counsel is making incriminating arguments on the record during your hearing. Maybe you should place motion to have this stand by counsel removed and they’re her comments stricken from the record and then appeal the case to another Court based on that fact.
What makes you think that the courts will all of a sudden start making rulings in my favor? I have already taken significant action to appeal, which I will post about in the coming weeks. The appellate courts weren’t interested in making any changes.
As a central NY resident, I thought of your story this morning and decided to check in and see how you’re doing. I was hoping you’d have gotten some traction in adult life and been able to move forward. This is just depressing.
The reason people are assigned standby counsel is to avoid a miscarriage of justice when a defendant attempts to represent themselves but is visibly incompetent to do so, and the judge expects that the defendant is heading for tragic legal errors that will waste everyone’s time. Unfortunately, while it’s everyone’s right to self-represent, it’s also a reality that pro se litigants are often mentally ill or otherwise low-functioning, hence why they don’t have the money to spare for a lawyer (or in your case, even photocopies) and usually don’t understand how much they don’t know or how much a lawyer can help them. It’s because you’re making a much bigger mess of your case than you realize and don’t understand what’s happening in the courtroom as well as you think you do.
That is very apparent from your writings. You continue to insist that every outcome is “illegal” or otherwise in error, even though your appeals fail, too. Yet for millions of other New York families, the process is a pain, but they get through it and their lives go on. Have you not realized that the difference between their cases and yours is you? Why do you believe that you have been so amusing to others if your behavior and thinking is not obviously strange?
I agree with an earlier comment, that you have undiagnosed autism. You use very elaborate language for no clear reason, yet habitually misuse it. Your logic is self-important and socially oblivious, you seem to have difficulty putting small details into their larger contexts to grasp the bigger picture. You work very hard to devise strange definitions of fairness and expect others to abide by them, rather than understanding what the real norms of the world we’re all living in actually are.
It’s very likely that things you are saying over the phone when you ask mental health professionals to supervise your visits with your child are red flags which lead them to make up gracious excuses to politely reject you as a client. You take these interactions at face value and fail to consider that it might be because of your bizarre behavior, which reads as deeply troubled and unstable to others, then continue going forward obliviously, unaware that you’re being refused because they don’t want their name attached to it when you finally do something even weirder and get into real trouble.
Your life must feel very difficult. I can appreciate that. I hope you’ll take advice to seek professional psychiatric help very seriously. There’s something called Social Skills Therapy that might help you understand why people are reacting to you the way that they do and eventually allow you to resolve your issues with your family.
Good luck, man. Seriously.

Response: How? Do you have a reason to feel that I’m being unreasonable, for myself seeking due process? Thanks for sharing your intimate and completely unfounded sentiments oh by the way, you can share the reason for how it is that you feel this way, by the same method that you used to post your comment; And wouldn’t that be awfully prudent of you???

Response: Like losing? Because that’s what I did. How is it that I was appointed a lawyer so that I could lose…?

Response: Well that might make sense, if I hadn’t lost!

Response: Anyone who is reads my content and does not know a definition of a word, they should look it up so that they may then understand what I am trying to say…
It’s very likely that things you are saying over the phone when you ask mental health professionals to supervise your visits with your child are red flags which lead them to make up gracious excuses to politely reject you as a client.
Response: Probably not. I think the mental health professionals being unable to help me, helps to show how the order regarding my custody and visitation was outrageous at best.
You take these interactions at face value and fail to consider that it might be because of your bizarre behavior
Response: they were mental health professionals, are you trying to insinuate to people reading your comment that I was to crazy, for a mental health professional…?! And you are making speculation on something you know nothing about; they didn’t do it because they had never heard of “mental health supervised visitation”.
unaware that you’re being refused because they don’t want their name attached to it when you finally do something even weirder and get into real trouble.
Response: What is it that exists in your imagining that you’re basing this on? Do you have any idea, besides what exists no place else but, in your imagination; what those conversations with those mental health professionals were like?
Your life must feel very difficult.
Response: I miss my son.
I hope you’ll take advice to seek professional psychiatric help very seriously.
Response: I’ve made it crystal clear on this website that the problem with my matters isn’t and wasn’t me.
There’s something called Social Skills Therapy that might help you understand why people are reacting to you the way that they do and eventually allow you to resolve your issues with your family.
Response: I want my son back, they can’t help me with that.
Good luck, man. Seriously
Response: Thanks, my spelling is improving…
People hate you because you have no shame. You need to be ashamed of yourself, of your situation.
What is remarkable about you is that considering global coverage of your eviction, which truly should not have been news at all, you show little humiliation or embarrassment.
This is because you consider yourself to be a victim. Nobody thinks you are a victim.
The courts do not think you are a victim either.
You expect the courts to think you are a victim because you are a single male father?
Your political views represent a victim mentality – Tea Party Conservatism, MGTOW, all of that.
But even Alex Jones does not consider you a victim. He did try to capitalize of you a bit, took pity on you, and gave you some money. And frankly, people like Alex Jones do owe you some monetary damages – they made you believe that in this society, you can consider yourself a victim. Perhaps he even felt some subconscious guilt about all this.
People see that you want to be a victim of something; that you are crying out for help. People are willing to see you as a victim of mental illness.
In that light, the media should be strongly criticized for humiliating and taking advantage of a mentally ill person.
Some say you are severely depressed or anxious. I don’t see that at all. If you were severely depressed, you would hate yourself enough to be ashamed, and possibly seek help. If you were anxious, you would be too afraid to even spend such time in court. It would have been impossible for you to do all those interviews and conduct yourself the way you do.
You don’t seem manic either. With all that attention, a manic person would have done way more extreme things. You didn’t do anything with the attention except humiliate yourself.
Schizophrenic? This website is not nearly interesting enough for you to be schizophrenic.
Autistic? Maybe. You are definitely living in your own World.
What makes you a victim? Why aren’t you ashamed that your own parents evicted you, that you won’t provide for your own son, that you were humiliated worldwide?
Frankly, how do you do it? I wish I could live without shame too.
What are you really a victim of? What happened to you? That is what everybody wanted to know. Nobody gives a shit about your legal matters. Frankly, that should be your private business.
At some point you might finally realize how others see you. And from personal experience, it could destroy you completely. You really have no idea what you have been through. Its incredible.
I can definitely understand why you are so sensitive. A large enough crack in your falsified ego could cause a severe hemorrhage of humiliation. You should read about ego death and prepare yourself. It might happen someday, but probably won’t…
People hate you because you have no shame. You need to be ashamed of yourself, of your situation.
Response: People hating me, and feeling that I should be ashamed of myself and my situation, fails to manifest itself in my psyche in any way whatsoever. This is because any party with such sentiments has either, refrained from reading the material on this website and is simply unaware of the what’s posted herein or, has an opinion so deeply vested in their unsubstantiated beliefs that they are unable to take on any consideration to an alternative or, simply chooses not to believe what I have overwhelmingly supported, and makes this same choice for whatever reason (an example of such reason is “the courts possess a wisdom that goes beyond that capacity of the common man to grasp”; which isn’t a thing by the way…).
What is remarkable about you is that considering global coverage of your eviction, which truly should not have been news at all, you show little humiliation or embarrassment.
Response: Yeah I’m pretty resilient, if you’re impressed by that you should check out my site…

Response: I’m posting my court records. That’s what I want people to see.
In that light, the media should be strongly criticized for humiliating and taking advantage of a mentally ill person.
Response: Having a conflicting opinion to yours does not exemplify mental illness. Your inability (or unwillingness) to grasp any foundation for my considerations does not imply that I am mentally dysfunctional.
Some say you are severely depressed or anxious. I don’t see that at all. If you were severely depressed, you would hate yourself enough to be ashamed, and possibly seek help.

Response: I think I was doing a really good job, until I got exasperated by all the attempts to characterize me as someone who deserves to be put on the streets without enough time to make housing arrangements. I had become quite familiar with fighting in an unfair fight for justice, beforehand; so I was used to that it wasn’t a big deal…
