AFFIDAVIT
STATE OF TEXAS
COUNTY OF HARRIS
Comes now the undersigned Vincent and Sophie Germano Affiants, husband and
wife, having personal knowledge of the matters and facts set forth in this
affidavit, under oath and attest to their
truth as documented by the court records in our possession:
SUMMARY
Irrevocably documented by the court records in our possession
are the facts detailed below in which a succession of lawyers of
nine (9) Oklahoma law firms who undertook our cause in the below
bank’s foreclosure; disregarded our grievances and criminal
complaints of violations of our right to due process, in
refusing to close the (Tinker Commitment obtained at a cost of
$19,500.00 to pay-off its mortgage) while moving the court to
defeat our Appeal and CH II reorganization - through bankruptcy
crimes, for possession of our motel (by three default) summary
judgments; joined by corrupted bankruptcy Trustees they filed
our legal actions (omitting their felony conspiracy and slander
of Affiants and charging us with abusing the legal system to
extend their fraud, fraud on the court, to strike our legal
actions in Oklahoma, Huston Federal Court and U.S. 5th Circuit
Court of Appeals in Louisiana. Lawyer Peter G. Pierce III, is
now a majority stock owner of the expanded bank. Thus,
propelling Affiants into a never ending search for ethical legal
representation and struggle for justice from January 4, 1985 to
present date.
“The Criminal
Fraud, Fraud on the Court, And All Taxpayers Who Paid the Cost
of Such Injustice”
FACTS
Vincent and Sophie
Germano, residents of Texas, at all times pertinent, as we had
done many times during our successful business career since our
marriage in 1948, we obtained an appraisal by the Oklahoma
Appraisal Company of a parcel of land at Interstate 40, Oklahoma
City, OK, next to Mc Donald’s to develop into a motel.
June 25, 1981-We paid $112,762.00 by Cashiers Check-(Exhibit
“1”)-Guarantee Bank No. 47956. The seller conveyed clear title
to one acre of land, and took back a mortgage on the remaining
parcel. Together with an additional investment of $263,000.00 of
our own money and Guaranty Bank's construction loan, we
contracted construction of the first of a planned two section
motel consisting of fifty-four rooms, complete with a rental
office, manager’s apartment, laundry and hot water system to
service 43 additional rooms.
Named American Inn, and opened for business December 16, 1981,
the motel achieved an occupancy in excess of similar motels and
was appraised for $1,500,000.00. The take out lender, (Siscorp)
refused to honor its agreement to payoff Guaranty Bank’s
construction loan and kept the $30,000.00 fee. Paid on its
officer’s agreement. Guaranty Bank accommodated us far beyond
its one year loan agreement before calling for payment of its
note/mortgage – Letter by Guaranty Bank regarding AI’S account
and its agreement to fund the construction loan for the
additional rooms to complete the motel project.
March 29, 1983 - for a consideration of $9000.00, First National
Bank of Bethany, OK, paid-off Guaranty Bank pursuant to its
letter approving our loan application stating in part: “the
Customer has been in the single family and multi family
construction business for years and has a lot of experience in
management. We have talked with several bankers and they all
rate him #1 in credit, cooperation and ability.”
Pursuant to Pierce senior’s instructions during Affiants good
faith negotiations in the prior months, Vincent Germano went to
Pierce senior’s office on the bank’s second floor and handed him
a payment and notified him that Tinker Investment & Mortgage
Corporation had approved our mortgage loan application and would
issue its commitment to pay-off its note and mortgage “after
Christmas.” Pierce stated not to make any more interest payments
and to bring the commitment to him when issued.
Affiants, however, were unable to construct the additional rooms
and completed the first section of the motel.
January 4, 1985 - as shown by the court records, the bank,
without notice and with knowledge of the Tinker agreement to
pay-off its note and mortgage, Pierce III disregarded Pierce
senior’s agreement with Affiants, filed bank’s lawsuit in
foreclosure of its mortgage in violation of bank law, Case
CJ-85-0095. The Bank alleges, in part: "default of its mortgage;
there is no substantial controversy as to any material fact;
American Inn has an equity of redemption; the foreclosure suit
is in accord with the June 11, 1984 joint statement of the
Comptroller of the Currency and Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System."
January 28, 1985 - Tinker Investment & Mortgage Corporation
issued its written commitment with a March 31, 1985 closing
deadline, which we promptly hand delivered to Pierce senior, who
stated he would cease the foreclosure and tender the documents
to the title company for closing by our legal counsel. A
$19,500.00 consideration was paid to Tinker, a subsidiary of the
Federal Credit Union of employees of U. S. Tinker Air Force
Base.
February 14, 1985 - Lawyer Alan M. Reaves, filed a (One Page
Answer) in which he failed to demand a trial by jury and assert
an affirmative defense and move the court for a Temporary
Restraining Order to cease prosecution of its foreclosure. That,
the June 11, 1984 joint statement of the Comptroller of the
Currency and Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System,
clearly advises member banks against foreclosure “in cases in
which the note is secured and in the process of collection,” as
true in our case.
FBI agents who came to our motel to investigate another of
Siscorp’s victims, expressed their regret for refusing to
investigate our complaint against the Siscorp Company and stated
they were not authorized to investigate our complaint.
March 15, 1985 - Pierce filed his bank’s Motion For Summary
Judgment on its foreclosure, Statement Of Undisputed Facts, and
Brief In Support Of Motion For Summary Judgment. Lawyer Reaves,
(with 16 days left of Tinker’s March 31 closing deadline) lawyer
Reaves failed to file our Answer.
March 21, 1985 - letter response to Vincent Germanos request by
Ed Phelps, Tinker’s mortgage officer, extending its mortgage
commitment to April 30, 1985, to permit financing alternatives.
April 4, 1985 - On our demand lawyer Reaves obtained leave to
file AI'S Counterclaim (out of time) in banks foreclosure, in
which he claimed, in part: "$1,000,000.00 in actual damages;
$2,000,000.00 in punitive damages for Plaintiff's fraudulent
conduct; costs of this action; reasonable attorneys fees;
interest at the rate of 15% per annum”.
April 5, 1985-Lawyer Reaves asked Vincent Germano and My son
Wayne Germano, to wait in the courthouse hall, while he went
into a courtroom.
We later discovered that Reaves
had "secretly" filed a Journal Entry of Judgment dismissing AI'S
Counterclaim. The Journal Entry was signed by Judge Blevins and
filed in court records (without consent of client and affidavit
of attorney in violation of Oklahoma Statute).
April 5, 1985 - DAILY OKLAHOMAN article, "Order Blocks Motel
Auction" paper officials refused our request to publish a
correction of the false, misleading statements that covered up
the truth outlined herein that prejudiced us in the legal system
in the years that followed.
(The article included a statement
by bank’s lawyer Peter Pierce III, who conspired with lawyer
Alan Reaves in refusing to close the Tinker loan since issued
January 28, now states "If he's got the money, why doesn't he go
ahead and pay it.").
April 5, 1985-Vincent Germano and our son Wayne complained of
the bank's fraudulent legal actions to the U.S. Attorney (Bill
Price). On assistant E. Thompson’s advice to hire Alan C. Durbin
stating "he had given her a hard time in defense of a client and
would defend your rights." We went to the large law firm of
Andrews, Davis, Legg, Bixler, Milsten & Murrah. (The Federal
Building in Oklahoma City is named after Judge Murrah).
In his law office, Alan C. Durbin corruptly told us he didn't
have a conflict of interests with the bank or other parties
involved in our case, and accepted our case advising that he
would move the court to vacate the (default) foreclosure
judgment, and close the Tinker loan and pay - off bank's note
-Thompson's office card and Durbin's Detail of Service,
revealing their phone contact regarding our case and bank’s.
April 8, 1985 - Answer to the AI Counterclaim.
April 8, 1985 - Lawyer Durbin letter to Tinker's Ed Phelps, one
of his numerous letters to parties involved in our efforts to
close the Tinker loan and pay-off of the bank’s note/mortgage.
April 8, 1985 - Pierce, (having acted with Reaves and Durbin in
refusing to close the Tinker loan since January 28), filed
Bank's Motion For Summary Judgment on the bank’s foreclosure.
Pierce, deceitfully stated, in part: "the Commitment was issued
January 28, 1985 and expired March 31, 1985".
April 8, 1985 - Durbin letter to Tinker mortgage officer, Ed
Phelps.
April 9, 1985 - Three days after Durbin undertook our case,
Vincent Germano and our son Wayne went to Alan Reaves' law
office, picked up and signed a receipt for case files at which
time Reaves handed us his Motion To Withdraw from our case, and
asked us to give it to Durbin with case files.
It was later discovered that lawyers Reaves and Durbin conspired
in altering dates of their Motion to Withdraw and Entry of
Appearance in our case as follows:
Reaves, dismissed April 5, 1985, gave his receipt for case files
April 9; Alan Durbin undertook our case April 5 in his law
office, and dated his employment letter April 8, 1985. Acting
together, they POST-DATED Durbin’s Entry of Appearance in our
case to April 30, 1985, and Reaves' Motion To Withdraw as
Attorney Of Record, from April 5, to May 6; put a line through
April, and Post-Dated the Motion's Certificate of Mailing to May
3, 1985. (This was to appear that Reaves was still counsel
during the issuance of the (default) foreclosure judgment and
time for its appeal).
Durbin, recommended by the U.S. Attorney, also refused to
correct his employment letter of April 8, 1985, in which he
stated, in part: he was hired in the "proposed lending
transaction with Tinker Investment & Mortgage Corporation for
the end loan financing of a motel project (TO BE) located in
Oklahoma City, OK; "in the event the subject loan does not close
for reasons other than any omission by this firm, our fees and
expenses will be due on billing and we will expect payment from
the client."
Lawyer Durbin, was initially informed AI’S first section was
completed, and doing business since December 1981, and that the
Tinker commitment was obtained for $19,500.00 and was in full
force and effect since January 28, 1985.
April 16, 1985 - Durbin letter to Tinker’s Ed Phelps was
unauthorized negotiation.
April 21, 1985 - On our request by letter, Tinker extended its
commitment to April 30, 1985, to permit sufficient time to
select financing alternatives.
April 23, 1985 - Durbin letter to Tinker's Ed Phelps inquiring
if we, (his clients) had paid the $19, 500.00) commitment fee.
April 23, 1985 - Ed Phelps (Tinker mortgage officer) letter
addressed to Alan Durbin, in part; We offered to extend the
commitment based on our discussion with Vincent Germano relative
to selling the property to a qualified buyer or bringing into
the project an additional guarantor, in addition to return our
fee if he was unable to restructure his project.
April 30, 1985 - With knowledge Pierce had refused to cooperate
in closing the Tinker commitment from January 28, to March 31,
deadline for its closing; Lawyer Durbin’s letter to bank's
Pierce, in part: "We are steering to close with Tinker within
the next ten days", "otherwise we will have to submit a request
to the Court to hear our request".
May 1, 1985 - Bank, Pierce’s letter to Durbin, who, without
discussion of its contents with us and authorization, signed it.
May 3, 1985 - At Durbin's request by phone, Vincent and Sophie
Germano, with our six-year-old grandson, went to his law office
(wherein he withheld from us Reaves’ secret filing of the
Journal Entry of Judgment dismissing our counterclaim in bank’s
foreclosure suit,
and asked us to sign a Journal
Entry Of Judgment.
We declined however anxious to resume our business,
on Durbin's
assurance he would keep it until he (closed Tinker's loan that
week) and repay AI'S debt to the Bank, Vincent Germano,
believing that Durbin was recommended by the U.S. Attorney Bill
Price and would not deceive us into granting the foreclosure
based on the above facts of its perjury by banks lawyer’s and
Reaves’. And on reading its first page limited to Journal Entry
of Judgment, thinking it was a replacement for Reaves’ (secretly
filed) J. E. of Judgment on our Counterclaim (filed without our
signature or consent of client and affidavit of attorney
pursuant in violation of O.S., Affiant signed the J. E. of J.
dated May 3, 1985.
It was later discovered that morally corrupted lawyer Alan C.
Durbin deceived Affiants into granting the bank Judicial
Foreclosure and gave it to Pierce and continued refusing to
close the Tinker loan to cause its cancellation. Acting in
concert, Judge James B. Blevins signed the J. E. of J.
May 10, 1985 - Bank’s lawyer Pierce III, (after conspiring with
Durbin and our legal counselors’ in moving the court to block
closing the Tinker commitment to pay-off Bank’s mortgage since
issued January 4, 1985 to purposefully cause its cancellation,
inquired by U.S. Mail to coconspirator lawyer Alan C. Durbin,
“Please let me know at your
earliest convenience of the status of putting the Tinker deal
together, if anything on this end that can be done to expedite,
please let me know”.
April 5, 1985 - Lawyer Durbin letter to Tinker’s Ed Phillips
seeking (without consideration) to deed American Inn to another
client (Allan Garland) along with the Tinker loan.
May 28, 1985 - Affiant’s excellent credit ruined, we tried to
recoup some of our investment pursuant to Tinker’s restructured
loan agreement requiring a second guarantor. His treachery still
unknown, Durbin drafted the (33 page) General Partnership
Agreement. Executed by our son Wayne Germano and Juanita Anne
Rorem who paid $105,000.00 into a bank escrow account for
one-third interest in the AI. Durbin also violated that
agreement and refused to close the restructured loan.
May 28, 1985 - Durbin letter to Tinker mortgage officer Ed
Phelps regarding the General Partnership Agreement.
June 3, 1985 - We received Tinker letter canceling its
commitment to pay-off bank’s note with its refund check for
$19,200.00 paid on its commitment issued five months earlier.
Though we didn’t receive it until after the Temporary
Restraining Order hearing below. We had no knowledge of the
cancellation until Pierce (who with our legal counsel, blocked
its closing since issued 1/28) deceived the court by submitting
it in the T.R.O. hearing to prove it had expired.
June 4, 1985 - AI lawsuit, case #CJ-85-5070: Our third legal
counsel, Charles Rouse filed the suit, amended it June 6 &
obtained Temporary Restraining Order, staying Sheriffs Sale of
AI. Lawyer Rouse alleges, in part: "The Defendant herein
perpetrated fraud upon the Plaintiff herein, knowing that the
same would work irrevocable hardship on the Plaintiff herein and
at the same time cause a windfall to the Defendant."
"That the Defendant has conspired with person or persons
currently unknown to defraud the Plaintiff of its real property
for a sum of less than one half the actual value of the said
property." "The fraud of the Defendant entitles the Plaintiff to
actual damages of $2,000.000.000.00, $1,000.000.000.00 punitive
damages and recovery of exemplary damages as an example to
others similarly situated in the sum of $150,000,000.00.
Due to Rouse's failed to oppose Pierce's motion-as he had also
advised was essential, assigned to judge Parr, the case was
re-assigned to judge James B. Blevins (whose void judgments the
suit sought to set aside under Oklahoma Statute and settled
legal precedent).
June 7, 1985 - TRO HEARING, on (ONE) of the Four counts of AI’S
lawsuit: As shown on the Transcript of the hearing also in our
care, bank’s Pierce and co counsel Joel Carson filed copies of
the Tinker letter canceling its commitment with the check of
$19,200.00 fee, (before we learned of the cancellation or
received it in the mail on our return to the motel after the
hearing).
As shown by the transcript also in our care Pierce and co
council Joel Carson, posed trick questions to writer Vincent
Germano (on the witness chair) to cover up-suppress the
extraordinary fraud, fraud on the court outlined above. Vincent
attempted to controvert such deception, but Judge Blevins
stopped me stating "you are represented by counsel."
Lawyer Durbin, still AI’S counsel of record, (subpoenaed by the
bank as its witness!!) Judge Blevins asked him to take the
witness chair, stating, "you need not swear an oath, you are an
officer on the court." Durbin REMAINED SILENT, until Rouse
(visibly intimidated by judge Blevins' obvious bias toward the
bank and Durbin), failed to question him and excused Durbin who
wrongfully stated "he was not involved in the judgment."
Judge Blevins allowed Pierce and co counsel Joel Carson to
testify as to what witnesses-summoned and seated in the
courtroom, would say if called to the witness chair to testify.
Then, displaying anger, judge Blevins stated it was a hearing on
the merits, and in violation of court rules granted Pierce's
Motion for Summary Judgment on ALL FOUR COUNTS, and ended the
court stay.
Following cancellation of the Tinker loan, we released $105,
000.00 paid by Mrs. Rorem into a bank escrow account contingent
on the Tinker loan closing by lawyer Alan Durbin.
June 10, 1985 - Revealing his moral depravity, in his letter to
Affiants, lawyer Durbin stated, in part, "We regret that we were
unable to convince you that the litigation posture that you
chose to pursue lacked a reasonable expectation of success." "It
is unfortunate that the events of the past few days have not
proved successful." Durbin further states, "you must remit to us
the sum of $11,533.90, for fees and expenses within 39 days of
your receipt of this letter".
June 13, 1985 - Lawyer Rouse filed the Petition In
Error-Preliminary Statement and withdrew form our case, stated
In part: "Trial court erred in prevented plaintiff from
presenting evidence relevant to the temporary restraining order,
and permitted defendant to present argument, cross examination,
and authority on all aspects of the case.
June 14, 1985 - Bank, Pierce Motion To Settle Amount Of
Attorney’s Fees, Oklahoma County, OK, Dist. Court, case#
CJ-85-5070.
August 16, 1985 - Pierce’s letter to Tinker's mortgage officer
Ed Phelps, in part: "As you probably know, American Inn, Inc.
jumped into a reorganization proceeding under CH -II, bankruptcy
Code".
June 19, 1985 - Pierce law partner Joel Carson's letter to
Charles Rouse.
June 19, 1985 - Pierce letter to lawyer Rouse with his motion
and court order reassigning coconspirator Judge James B. Blevins
to preside over the (attorney fee hearing). Pierce, continuing
his fraud on the court, states, in part: "the adverse publicity
that the plaintiff generated," "the novelty of questions
presented in this case, the skill required to completely defeat
this action in THREE DAYS," "Mr. Carson's and Mr. Pierces
experience in commercial litigation," "The quick reaction by
Defendant's counsel, and prompt successful termination of this
litigation should have served TO SET AN EAMPLE that FRIVOLOUS
LITIGATION WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. Pierce seeks a court order for
legal fees based on the attached "Defendant counsel's DETAILED
TIME RECORDS for the period in question".
Tony Blazer, lay employee of the Oklahoma Bar Association, on
receipt of Pierce’s TIME RECORDS filed with his Response to one
of our many Grievances, informed Vincent Germano by phone that
Pierce RE-WROTE, OMITTED INCRIMINATING EVIDENCE from his TIME
RECORDS that he had filed in court records with this MOTION TO
SETTLE THE AMOUNT OF ATTORNEY'S FEES.
We promptly informed the OKLAHOMA BAR of Mr. Blasier's
revelation of Pierce's felony perjured Time Records filed as a
part of his Response to our Grievance. The State Bar ignored
such outright fraud and permitted Pierce to continue violating
its rules of conduct outlined below. The bar denied a total of
ten (10) Grievances in collusion with the lawyers to evade
discipline.
December 10, 1985 - Oklahoma Supreme Court, case #64,709: AI’S
fourth attorney, Jerome Blumenthal, received a $2500.00 fee and
filed the opening brief-(absent claims arising in the above
facts). The appeal was taken over by Pierce for his bank and
continued his outrageous, indefensible criminal conduct to
defeat AI’S appeal and CH II bankruptcy reorganization as
follows.
June 26, 1985 - AI’S CH II Bankruptcy Petition, case
#Bk-85-2221-A, staying Sheriff Sale: Assigned to judge Berry,
the case was reassigned to Chief judge Richard Bohanon-who was
seated from (chose in action) Alan Durbin's large (Andrews,
Davis law firm) which was paying him for stock sold-back to the
law firm. Luther Bohanon (Sr.) was a senior judge in that same
federal court district, a violation of 458, 28, U.S. Code. This
conflict of interests fueled the Striking of our petitions in
the federal and state courts.
WITNESS AFFIDAVIT lawyer Charles R. Rouse November 6, 1985
attesting: "I was attorney for the Debtor in possession of
American Inn, Inc. and as such, attended the hearing conducted
pursuant to 11, U.S.C., Sec. 2004. During an off the record
recess from this proceeding, Peter G. Pierce III, Alan Durbin,
Vincent Germano and I were talking informally among ourselves."
"During the conversation Mr. Pierce looked at Vincent Germano
and stated, "We could have had the Tinker loan closed in one
week if you hadn't filed your lawsuit against the Bank." Mr.
Durbin responded, "that’s right." (Lawyer Rouse had filed our
lawsuit).
Upon Rouse’s refusal to have the court reporter record Pierce
and Durbin’s gloating confession of their fraudulent prosecution
of the bank’s foreclosure suit which caused AI’S bankruptcy,
Vincent Germano left the hearing and went to the office of Court
Administrator Steve Liveshee, who was out of his office. All
other court officials were also out to lunch. On my return to
the hearing, on lawyer Charles Rouse's assurance he would
provide the above affidavit, Vincent Germano relented.
Judge Bohanon, based on applications and (Affidavits appointed

was appointed bankrupt estate’s accountant; Peter G. Pierce III,

was corruptly hired as counsel for the Trustee to prosecute an
adversary suit against Affiants.

avail, Oklahoma City Municipal Counselor Howard Haralson filed a
motion, 9/17/86, objecting to our pro se motion to remove

and mailed to our home in Texas. Bohanon allowed Abbott to keep
$3700.00 of the $5000.00 fee paid him on his agreement "to do a
CRAM DOWN against the bank and coconspirator lawyers. Abbott is
one of the lawyers of the four law firms who undertook and
acquiesced to the ongoing fraudulent bankruptcy and adversary
proceedings proceeding.
As is also shown in
the federal case below, Taylor and Manchester removed the void
judgments from case files delivered to their Oklahoma City law
office to cover up lawyer Abbot’s bankruptcy fraud and corrupt
conduct in drafting the Default judgments against Affiants, his
ex clients.

lawyers Charles R. Rouse, David Dunlop and Affiants.
September 19, 1986 -
abandoned by another lawyer again, we filed pro se, a Combined
Response to Pierce's Response to the above Motion (by attorney
Rouse) to Remove Trustee Rolinaitis and Pierce-acting as his
counsel in a severe conflict of interests, objecting to such
fraud, including, comparing us to Tax Protesters.
January 5, 1987 -
Reply by Chief Judge Richard Bohanon denying our motion
demanding Rights Sua Sponte. As show herein, Bohanon took
reassignment despite his severe conflict of interests and
allowed lawyers of four (4) (of a total of nine (9) law firms
who appeared in our cause) to conspire in open court to defeat
AI’S Appeal & reorganization, now advised that we "retain a
competent attorney".
Upon filing our motion (pro se), Trustee Michael Rolinaitis
resigned (6 days before the hearing) and was appointed "estate
administrator."
January 8, 1987 - Pierce's (4 page) letter submitted in the
Settlement Conference before Federal Magistrate Pat Irwin, on
January 14, Reveals his bank’s wielding of political power to
manipulate the legal system to perfect the virtual theft of our
American Inn.

Orders by Judge Bohanon Converting AI’S CH II, to CH 7, And The
Appointment of L. Win Holbrook Interim Trustee And Approving
Standing Bond for the American Inn, Inc. estate, case
#86-2221-A-.
Vincent and Wayne
Germano lodged a complaint with Holbrook of violation of AI’S
bankruptcy and appeal (by the bank and lawyers whose prepetition
fraud caused A.I’s, bankruptcy), supported by court records,
affidavits by lawyers Charles R. Rouse, David Dunlop an ours,
Holbrook moved the Oklahoma Court of Appeals for Rehearing of
AI’S Appeal (below):
January 12, 1987 -
Court Of Appeals For The State of Oklahoma, Div. No. 3, L. Win
Holbrook, Entry Of Appearance, as attorney for Trustee L. Win
Holbrook, of American Inn, Inc.
January 12, 1987 -

No. 3, granting Trustee Holbrook until February 2, 1987 in which
to Petition for Rehearing (AI’S Appeal, case # 64,709) and Brief
in support there of.
Interim Trustee Holbrook, however, joined the bank’s ongoing
conspiracy and abandoned the criminally bankrupted (American Inn
estate).
January 12, 1987 -
Bankruptcy Court Order For Meeting Of Creditor etc. As shown on
the Order (bottom left) W. Rogers Abbott, who appeared in AI'S
bankruptcy case and joined bank, Pierce, Durbin and trustee
Rolinaitis in covering up the ongoing fraudulent proceeding,
withdrew from the case and moved the court to keep unearned
$3700.00 of $5000.00 paid on his agreement to do a "cram down"
against the bank and coconspirators.
January 23, 1987 -
Judge Bohanon granted Rouse's motion to withdraw-leaving US
SEATED ALONE AT THE TABLE with interim Trustee Holbrook, Durbin,
Pierce and others, seated at the other table. Microphone in
hand, Pierce verbally supported his previously submitted motion
for default summary judgment over the P.A. System.
Judge Bohanon granted his bank Default Judgments against
Affiants, converting the case to CH-7. Pierce, thus, perfected
bank's criminally fraudulent foreclosure. Abbott, as AI'S
ex-attorney, DRAFTED (for Chief judge Richard Bohanon), the
fraudulently begotten default judgments against Vincent and
Sophie Germano and mailed them to our home in Texas. Though the
original judgments were removed from case files by lawyers Susan
Manchester and Floyd Taylor, this Exhibit consists of the Court
Order.
February 24, 1987 - Pierce took possession of our American Inn
for his Bank at Sheriff Sale for a fraction of his bank’s
mortgage, and as lawyer Charles Rouse, stated in his pleadings
to the court in the 5990 case (above) the bank made a
"windfall." On information and belief, Pierce parlayed its ill
gotten windfall by claiming a loss on the Bank's IRS Income Tax
Returns.
February 29, 1989-We
mailed a complaint, with a three page summary of the above
outlined bankruptcy fraud to Assistant U. S. Trustee Michael
Freemen, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, 201 Dean A. McGee, Okla. City,
OK, 73102, Freeman didn’t bother to respond.
On our complaint of the bankruptcy fraud, corruption: John
Green, assistant U.S. Attorney, OK City office, an African
American, started writing our complaint, but on hearing judge
Richard Bohanon's name, stopped writing and stated "I will not
embarrass Luther Bohanon” (his father), a senior judge in that
same federal district because “he integrated the schools in
Oklahoma." A violation of Sec. 458 FRCP) that fueled the
STRIKING of our Petitions in the state and federal courts in
Oklahoma City and Houston Texas as shown below.
We personally lodged a complaint of the bankruptcy fraud
committed in bankruptcy court in Oklahoma, with Assistant U.S.
Trustee, Nancy Holley of the Houston, Texas, bankruptcy court.
She gave us her card and ignored our pleas for help. Shortly
thereafter, her boss (Trustee Head), resigned amid charges of
his wrongdoing. Complaints to the U.S. Office of U.S. Trustees,
Washington were to no avail.
NEWS RELEASE by Congressman Jack Brooks: Due to complaints of
ours and other victims of such bankruptcy fraud, corruption
suffered by us, Congressman Brooks moved General Accounting
Office to investigate the Justice Department’s U.S. Bankruptcy
Program. No response was received, however, Judge Bohanon was
removed as Chief judge, but is still a judge in that bankruptcy
court.
U.S. District Court, case CIV-87-525-T: Affiants and son Wayne,
drove (8 hours) to the law office of Miskovsky, Sullivan, Taylor
& Manchester, Oklahoma City, OK. Informed of the above facts,
they deceived us stating they didn't have a conflict of
interests with parties involved in our cause, and that they
would include in our petition a referral to the (17-Page Paper)
that Pierce had presented at the April 3, 1987 Banking Law
Institute, Oklahoma City University, titled, Bank's, Lawyers And
Liability Revisited.
Based on their written agreement to "prosecute the parties who
caused the financial collapse of the American Inn--through
appeal," our son Wayne and Affiant Vincent Germano, handed them
a $5000.00 check and the "original default bankruptcy judgments.
IN HIS PAPER Peter G. Pierce III, reveals the psyche of a
corrupt banker-lawyer in small part: "the traditional
"Plaintiffs Bar" does not know very much about financial
regulation but, they are certainly experts in common law and
tort theories. And most of them can pronounce, if not expound
upon, RICO." There is a decided inclination on the banker's part
to act now and worry about ramifications later.” “Keep a clean
file, assume that everything in a credit or customer file will
be read to a jury. A good paper trail can prevent a debtor from
getting to a jury. Communicate if the bank thought the borrower
was a sufficiently astute businessman to justify credit
initially, does it have reason to consider him inept today?”
"Likely Not…"
The case was assigned to Chief Judge Ralph Thompson: Lawyers
Taylor and Manchester, filed our Petition omitting mention of
the Paper and claims arising in the facts touched on above. We
later learned that Taylor and Manchester deceive us into hiring
them, Affiant Vincent Germano, unbeknown to us, Susan Manchester
appeared for Trustee McDonald (to replace us as debtor in
possession in AI'S bankruptcy case).
Taylor and Manchester, removed from case files the original
Judgments levied against us (by default) received in an envelope
of the law firm of R.W. Rogers Abbott, 414 Park Harvey Center.
Okla. City, OK, 73102. Abbott is one of the lawyers of four law
firms who appeared in AI'S bankruptcy (above) and covered up,
suppressed the bank’s and coconspirator lawyers prepetition and
ongoing bankruptcy criminal fraud. Abbott drafted the default
judgments for Chief Bankruptcy Judge Bohanon, after he granted
his motion to withdraw from our case and keep $3700 of $5000.00
paid on his agreement to prosecute what Abbot stated was a "Cram
Down" against the Bank and conspiring attorneys.
April 7, 1987-We received an Affidavit and cover letter by U.S.
Mail from the Oklahoma City, OK, law office, by Susan
Manchester, advising us to sign the enclosed Affidavit. Her
appearance for trustee Mc Donald to take over management of the
AI still unknown to us, after her refusal to add all of our
claims from the affidavit only touched-on herein, by phone, we
refused to sign the affidavit.
Chief Federal Judge Thompson granted Taylor and Manchester's
motion to withdraw from our case, alleging that we insisted on
changing their employment agreement to keep $5000.00 paid on
their written agreement to "prosecute the parties who caused the
financial collapse of American Inn--through appeal".
Chief Judge Thompson, stating "certain claims are viable and
appropriate," reassigned the case to Judge Lynn Phillips (whose
wife) was associated with Alan Durbin's chose in action Andrews,
Davis, law firm.
May 27, 1987 - Pierce filed Defendant's Brief in Support Of
Motions For Entry Of Judgment And Imposition Of Sanctions
against the Germanos, citing facts and legal precedent having no
record support.
June 5, 1987 - We wrote to Bill Price, the then U.S. Attorney,
in Oklahoma City, who had recommended Alan Durbin, inquiring
about our previously filed criminal complaint against bank's
Peter G. Pierce III. No response was received.
June 31, 1987 - Motion, Response of Counsel by trial lawyer
Richard Denney and letter by Dallas attorney L.S. Kaplan, who,
in his Dallas law office, recommended Denny to Vincent Germano
and son Wayne. Mr. Denny discussed filing a federal Civil Rico
action, filed an entry of appearance, then withdrew because of a
possible conflict of interests.
With the pending deadline for filing our Amended Petition, we
Wayne, drove (8 hours) to meet lawyer Craig Dodd (of Enid
Oklahoma) at Sullivan’s restaurant in Oklahoma City. Upon
confirmation of his phone agreement and to mail his written
agreement to amend our Petition with all our claims-through
appeal, we paid him $5000.00. Dodd, however, didn't mail his
written agreement and compounded Manchester and Taylor’s felony
fraud, fraud on the court.
Lawyer Craig Dodd filed an Amended Petition-omitting claims
arising in the extraordinary facts only touched on herein.
Dodd's associate David Vorwald, expressed amazement over
evidence learned in deposing lawyer Alan C. Durbin, but refused
to provide the transcript of the deposition. In a fit of
remorse, Vorwald stated the reason for omitting our claims from
our Amended Petition and refusal to provide a copy of the
transcript, could be found by obtaining the name of the daughter
of a high official to one of the parties involved in our case.
Due to the high profile persons involved, one Oklahoma City
investigator, returned our fee, and the other firm accepted then
abandoned our case. Having uncovered certain of the conflict of
interests on our own initiative that caused the lawyers of the
nine (9) Oklahoma law firms who undertook our cause throughout
the years and violated our right to due process, we have yet to
uncover the names of the parties alluded to by lawyer David
Vorwald.
July 21, 1987 - Judge Layn Phillips' Order denying our pro se
motion to disqualify him because we did not question his
impartiality. Thus, despite the fact that his wife was
associated with a main chose in action conspirator law firm, our
efforts to defend our right to an impartial judge and
constitutional due process, came to naught once again.
July 27, 1987 - Our
Reply Brief (filed by our son Wayne) In opposition Pierce’s
Motion To Dismiss And Motion For Summary Judgment, with two
pages of case law and facts having no relationship to the
extraordinary fraud, corruption, fraud on the court outlined
herein.
Based on lawyer Craig Dodd’s In Camera Affidavit, alleging
wrongdoing by Affiants (clients) Judge Phillips STRUCK our
lawsuit and granted Dodd's motion to withdraw and to keep our
un-earned $5000.00 fee.
Late one evening Craig Dodd phoned Affiant Vincent Germano and
stated "if he had pleaded the truth of our case in the Amended
Petition, he would have had to appeal all cases thereafter."
Dodd further stated his son was disabled and couldn’t afford to
appeal all cases. I expressed my sorrow for his son’s disability
and stated the court records in our possession documenting
systemic violations of due process were grounds were
inexcusable.
Notified by phone of a hearing in Federal district court by
clerk Mr. French, Affiants drove (eight hours) to Oklahoma City
only to see a dark Courtroom. Chief Judge Thompson's secretary,
on hearing our inquiry, exclaimed "my god you were prejudiced,"
but Judge Thompson, told her he wasn't allowed to speak with us
ex-parte. We drove another eight hours back to our apartment in
Kingwood, Texas.
September 1, 1987 - Bankruptcy Trustee L.W. Holbrook, following
his and trustee Michael Rolinaitis defeat of AI’S CH II
bankruptcy in the extraordinary facts briefly outlined herein
above, trustee Holbrook filed another false sworn affidavit in
support of Pierce's motion for summary judgment on which Judge
Phillips, Struck our lawsuit in the CIV-87-525 Case
November 20, 1987 -
Pierce, by Subpoena issued by the U.S. District Court, Southern
District of Texas, Houston Division, served on our family in
Texas, deposed our daughters Deborah Speaks, Pamela and John
Kutchback and son Wayne Germano, at the law office of Eikenburgh
& Styles, 1100 First National Bank Building, Houston, Texas.
January 7, 1988 -
Affiants filed the Affidavit by Dr. David Nickeson in Support of
a Motion For Continuance," Case #CIV-87-525-P. Attesting to

transluminal coronary angioplasty, performed at the V.A.
hospital, Houston, Texas.

-88-1244, USDC case#: CIV-87-525: Vincent Germano and son Wayne,
pro se, appealed the striking of our lawsuit and filed a series
of compelling motions and briefs opposing Pierce's pleadings
designed to cover up his, our counsels' and bankruptcy Trustee's
fraud, corruption touched on herein. During a phone inquiry,
the
court clerk stated to Vincent Germano, "what's the matter, don't
you like the justice you received"?.
Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals, Order affirming the district
court order; denied en banc rehearing and motion to stay
issuance of mandate pending application to U.S. Supreme Court.
February 20, 1989 -
We submitted a four-page complaint to Assistant U.S. Trustee of
that district, Michael Freeman regarding bankruptcy fraud
outlined herein, no response was received.
January 28, 1988 -
Pierce filed his Affidavit In Support Of Attorney Fees.
March 8, 1989 -
Response by Philip M. Zeidner, Executive Office of U. S.
Trustees, U. S. Department of Justice, to our complaint of
bankruptcy fraud. He expressed his outrage over the phone and
moved C. P. Wood (Kansas Trustee) to investigate our complaint.
Though judge Bohanon was removed as Chief judge, and allowed to
remain in that federal bankruptcy court, Ms. Wood allowed the
bankruptcy fraud to continue to defeat our motel reorganization
and appeal from bank & our counselors’ prepetition felony fraud,
fraud on the court.
March 9, 1989 -
Summoned to appear at an asset hearing (by Pierce) in Federal
Court in Oklahoma City, we drove eight hours to the hearing
presided over by Magistrate Robin Cauthron. Pierce questioned
Affiant Vincent Germano and lied to goad me into objecting: He
stated in part: "This is in 1987 after you were kicked out of
management of the American Inn." "Mr. Germano, after the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court, Western District of Oklahoma removed you as
manager".
Though the Transcript of the hearing shows I answered "yes" to
one statement, the court record proves both statements were
false and done to provoke me into objecting and calling Pierce a
liar. Magistrate Cauthron stated “(LYING) wasn’t relevant to the
hearing,” and by Order of June 29, 1989 she certified a finding
of Contempt of Court to federal Judge Layn Phillips. (Magistrate
Cauthron had granted Pierce's motion for legal fees in the
CIV-87-626-P case, wrongfully stating "Incurred as a result of (Germano’s)
bad faith institution and pursuit of this lawsuit). Coauthor was
rewarded, she was appointed Judge in that federal court
district!
June 28, 1990 - Page
33 of transcript of Contempt Hearing, attorney J. W. Coyle
received a $700 fee to present the document which shows we had
sold the Motel to (Faust) based upon an irrevocable letter of
Credit, only to have his lender refuse to honor it and our legal
counselors did nothing. Coyle (remained seated, and failed to
present the document in my defense at the hearing before judge
Layn Phillips (whose wife was associated with bank main
coconspirator, Alan Durbin law firm and (recommended by the U.S.
Attorney) Judge Phillips denied my offer to show him the
document on the witness stand).
Judge Phillips
called a federal marshal into the courtroom and sentenced me to
five (5) days in the Oklahoma County Jail (to punish me for
defending our rights). Instructed to take me to the Oklahoma
County Jail, the federal marshal, now retired, stated he wasn’t
going to shackle me and to sit in the front seat with him for
the trip to the jail. I thanked the Marshal for his kindness.
Judge Phillips released me the next day.
May 23, 1989 - I filed a Common Law Affidavit in Real Property
Records of Oklahoma County, OK, Clerk, file # 000446557. It
declared in part, Sheriffs Deed of the American Inn, is
fraudulent: Fraud lies in the fact that said instrument is being
used in a continuing criminal episode and in an endless chain
scheme of fictitious sales and is a forgery. Said instrument is
perjures, in constituting fraud, and fraudulent use of process
being invalid from its inception as a direct trespass without
due process of law and a deprivation of all rights. The
affidavit cites the Supreme Court ruling in Rich vs. Braxton,
158 U.S. 375, 376, 1985, specifically forbidding Judges from
invoking equity jurisdiction to remove common law liens or
similar "clouds of title." Our legal counselors, failed to cite
this ruling and the facts stated, in part above.
June 28, 1989 -
Petition, First National Bank of Bethany, case # CJ-85-5990:
Filed by Peter G. Pierce III to expunge the Affidavits also
named Oklahoma County as defendant. The case was assigned to
Judge Owens. Pierce Amended the Petition August 37, 1989.
Robert Mitchell, Assistant Oklahoma County Attorney, who was
shown the supporting court records by Affiant Vincent Germano,
filed an Answer for the county July 7, 1869, stating in part.
"Plaintiff petition fails to state a claim which relief may be
granted as to the defendant.” “Plaintiff requests an order from
this court which would prevent him from carrying out statutory
duties of his office in the manner prescribed by law, and
injunctive relief sought against this defendant is not
authorized or appropriate under the facts of the case."
July 25, 1989 - Following denial of our cause by several
Oklahoma law firms, we filed an Entry of Appearance pro se until
Lawyer Charles Rouse induced us to hire him (a third time) based
upon his personal knowledge of the facts, his affidavit and
letter of May 25, 1989, in which he states, in part: "I have
received your chronology and note that on its face, you appear
to have an excellent 1983 action against numerous parties that
have actively conspired against you; As you can imagine, several
of the defendants, including (bankruptcy) Judge Bohanon, Alan
Durbin, Peter Pierce and the Rolinaitis' (trustee) are looking
at disbarment in the event that we prevail.
“As you know, Peter Pierce has a nasty habit of launching a
paperwork blizzard when one is not required. I do not believe
that each of the above listed Defendants would leave no stone
unturned in their attempts to win this suit because of the
disastrous professional and financial ramifications should you
win."
As in each prior action, pursuant to Pierces motion, the case
was reassigned to his favorite judges; in this case judge James
B. Blevins, whose void judgments this suit sought to set aside
under OK Statute, shown to have violated our constitutionally
protected right to a trial by jury and due process in each prior
judicial hearings.
August 18, 1989 - Letter by attorney Charles Rouse addressed to
our home in Texas, stating, in part: "Enclosed please find our
Very Rough First Draft of the Answer and Cross Petition that we
have furnished for review in your case." "Prior to finalizing
this matter, it will be necessary to document the violation of
E.C.O.A. and review a copy of the Cross Petition in CJ-85-0095,
and the retaliatory suit that I filed in CJ-95-5070 Case".
…"The reason for this is that res judicata on anything filed in
the counterclaim which the judge gave judgment to the bank on
our petition (CJ-85-5070) to vacate earlier upon which the judge
gave judgment on, -- all sustained as per fraudulent Appeal
(case # 64,709) prior to finishing this matter." "Additionally,
we are intending to bring a cause of action for Damages, mental
Duress, Loss of Credit Standing etc. on your behalf." "This has
not been added to the rough draft, BUT WILL BE ADDED IN THE
FUTURE" 23
Lawyer CHARLES R. ROUSE, however, FILED THE SAME "VERY ROUGH
FIRST DRAFT" as our Answer and Cross Petition.
September 1, 1989 - Reply To (our) Counterclaim, by Pierce for
his bank, he lied, part: "claims are barred by statutes of
limitations, and the doctrines of issue preclusion and claims
preclusion.
September 1, 1989 - U.S-Bankruptcy Court Trustee L.Win Holbrook

didn't respond.

AS IN EACH PRIOR ACTION, Pierce filed his bank’s Motion For

trial by jury and that answers to Pierce's discovery requests
will be delivered to you by Monday February 5, 1990.

facts and legal precedent having no record support of case
history of violations of constitutionally protected due process
and trial by jury touched on herein.
March 14, 1990 -
Motion To Withdraw by attorney Charles Rouse, asserting, in
part; that we refused to cooperate in discovery required by
statute. That we have filed pleadings in this matter having no
merit; Vincent Germano’s overwhelming fixation with this matter
appears to be psychogenetic in
nature obstructing his rational analysis of the situations faced
in the course of this litigation".
With the probable
granting of Plaintiff Bank's Motion For Summary Judgment,
Affiant, Vincent Germano underwent a psychiatric examination by
Dr. Jose Carranza and mailed the finding to Judge Blevins asking
that he deny Rouse's motion, as a replacement attorney was not
available to us in Oklahoma.
March 25, 1990 - Our letter to attorney Rouse (Certified
Mail-Return Receipt Requested), in part: That he move the court

learning that you refused to Verify the Answers,
and admonishes Affiants for

Verifications that he had mailed to us because they were
"illegible copies" and would have been rejected by Pierce.
May 3, 1990 - Our

appeal, in part: "I will prepare the petition in error and file
same. I will prepare and file a brief to all issues and facts of
this case regardless of implications to parties in high office."
Like his predecessors, he omitted the fraud, corruption by his
predecessors briefly outlined above.
September 25, 1990 -
Order, Oklahoma Supreme Court, denied our (pro se) Writ of
Mandamus to disqualify Judge Blevins, which states "adequate
remedy by appeal". The Order was signed by Chief justice (Hargrave)
who failed to respond to our letter and copy of our bar
grievance dated January 30, above, asking to prevent Rouse from
abandoning our cause.
May 21, 1991 - We
filed pro se, Motion and Brief To Sanction Peter G. Pierce III,
in the Oklahoma Supreme Court. Blumenthal didn't controvert the
facts and case law asserted by Pierce, having no relationship to
his and our legal counselors litany of fraud, corruption shown
in part herein.
U.S. Supreme Court: following our legal counselors’ systematic
refusal to move the court to disqualify Judge Blevins and demand
a trial by jury since January 4, 1985, our son Wayne drafted our
Corrected Combined Motion To Disqualify And Sanction Peter G.
Pierce III And Strike Brief In Opposition To Petition For Writ
Of Certiorari. It was filed stamped May 1 and June 10, 1991.
July 4, 1991 - U.S. SUPREME COURT: Our Brief In Support Of
Plaintiff's Combined Motion To Reconsider And Vacate The Related
Orders etc. and the Order by Judge Phillips of July 21, 1987.
The "Constitutional Court" denied a total of FIVE pleas for
appellate relief from violations of constitutionally protected
due process in each and every case at the hands of the lawyers
of the nine (9) Oklahoma law firms who undertook our cause since
1985.
January 18, 1993 -
Oklahoma Supreme Court-This is one of the pleadings filed by us
pro se: Appellants’ Amended Petition For Writ of Certiorari. The
justices also ignored the ten page petition of a compelling
overview of the extraordinary history of violations of every
element of Constitutionally protected Due Process-through which
judges seized our motel for the bank and ended a successful
family business.
October 18, 1994 - Attorney Charles Rouse stated in his letter
to us, "Thank you for a copy of your disillusioned diatribe. As
you are aware, it contains numerous slanderous and false
statements. Only your poverty prevents me from seeking remedy. I
hope you get the help you need".
October 15, 1999 - U.S. District Court, Houston, TX: Our lawsuit
filed pro se against First National Bank of Bethany, OK, Now
First Bethany Bank & Trust, N.A., case #H-98-CV-2688, demanding
a trial by jury. It also named its officers, directors and
privies, jointly, individually and severally. The suit was
supported by our (15 page) Affidavit listing the cases in
Oklahoma state and federal courts of the Western District of
Oklahoma. The suit listed the cases (all limited to sham
judicial proceedings by judges with defrauding conflicts of
interests who granted bank summary judgment.
Docketed a Civil Rights case by the filing court clerk, the case
was assigned to Judge John D. Rainey.
The Houston, TX, law firm filed
bank’s Answer, absent demand for a trial by jury. Judge Rainey,
informed of the omission of the Adversary suit case#86-0423 from
the rendition of cases listed on the Affidavit filed with bank’s
fraudulent Answer - which actually states our suit stems from
history of judicial foreclosure and summary dismissal of our
efforts to adjudicate our claims in the courts in Oklahoma
State.
And that Peter G. Pierce III, omitted the Adversary case to
deceive the court by covering up that he prosecuted the
Adversary case (# 86-0423) in his felony conspiracy with our
legal counselors and trustees in full felony control of the
bankruptcy proceeding.
Together, the lawyers prosecuted the Adversary suit moving
bankruptcy court to award the bank two (default) judgments, void
on their face against Affiants to convert our motel’s CH II
filing to CH 7. Thus, another fraud on the court and all
taxpayers who paid the cost of the open court criminal
conspiracy, as Pierce and our legal counselors had done in each
of the prior cases of sham hearings by concert acting judges.
September 29, 1999 - Judge Rainey, ignored settled precedent,
issued a Memorandum and Order granting Pierce’s Motion for
Summary Judgment – wrongfully striking our Civil Right suit. The
Order consists of a (7 page ruling and legal precedent) having
no record support of violations of due process and trial by jury
through Pierce’s and our legal counselors’ fraud, corrupt
conduct, fraud on the courts, in each prior legal actions.
December 27, 1999 -
Affiants appealed the ruling in the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of
Appeals, case # 99-20969.
November 16, 1999 - Clerk letter notifying us, in part, the
appeal was docketed, and included a caption for the appeal and
instructed Affiants to use it on any briefs you file with this
court.
Affiants notified the Clerk the
caption was not correct, that our prior legal counselors and the
judges were named bank's co-conspirators-not defendants as
stated, the Clerk failed to correct the caption severely
prejudicing Affiants.
Affiants filed numerous pleadings in the Appeal, however, our
concern for its defeat arose with Deputy Clerk Janne Winne's
directives by phone and U.S. Mail that deceived us into
canceling our timely filed motions for en-banc rehearing of
court rulings denying our motion to supplement the record, in
defense of the false facts and repeated slander of our integrity
and probable defeat of our appeal.
Thus, the Deputy Clerk deprived us the right of reconsideration
by the full court of such wrongdoing and slanderous pleadings
pursuant to court rules governing en bank rehearing.
July 13, 2000 - Appellee Bank's Louisiana counsel filed bank's
Original Brief, replete with false history facts and three pages
of Authorities having no record support and crossed the line of
common decency: The lawyers slandered and accused us of abuse of
process and waste of tax resources, which the court records
prove themselves to be guilty of.
The bank’s counsel further stated, in part:
"Blinded by
Ignorance and Obsession, the Germanos filed suit in the Southern
District of Texas in July 1999, asserting the same claims based
upon some FAUX conspiracy." "The Germanos have abused the civil
court system for nearly a generation. They have plagued First
Bethany, forcing it to defend claims wholly lacking in merit.
Unable to respond in damages or monetary sanctions, living on
exempt income with relatives in Houston's luxurious Kingwood
addition,”“the Germanos approach the courts with impudence and
contempt."
"First Bethany respectfully submits that the District Court
order dismissing the Germanos' case (and in the alternative
entering summary judgment should be affirmed with sanctions
against the appellants).” The order is legally correct and
furthers the policy that frivolous Complaints ought not vex
either those called to defend or an overtaxed judiciary, or the
third party in all Litigation, the Taxpayers whose money the
Germanos have repeatedly squandered."
November 10, 1999 -
Letter by Meredith Ann Pierce notifying us to direct
correspondence to her at the Jones, Walker law firm in Baton
Rouge, Louisiana. Ms. Pierce, an Oklahoma resident is the
grand-daughter of Peter Pierce Sr., Appellee bank's President,
majority stockholder and board chairman.
Appellants motioned the court complaining about attorneys, E.S.
Wilson's slanderous language and Meredith A. Pierce's conflict
of interests. Apelles’s Louisiana counsel responded stating that
Wilson and Ms. Pierce were dismissed and replaced.
February 9, 2000 - Appellants petitioned the Senate Judiciary
Committee, with supporting exhibits stating our concern for the
likely defeat of our appeal and asked the committee, having
oversight powers of such legal system corruption, to bring
finality to a gross miscarriage of justice and civil rights
violations that have devastated our lives since 1985.
August 1, 2000 -
Appellants filed a comb-bound Appellant's Motion To Supplement
The Record consisting of (15) pages of text defining the (42)
key court records included therein. How the lawyers of nine (9)
law firms conspired with bank's insider-lawyer to move the
courts to evade a trial by jury and due process by awarding bank
(summary judgments) in each case to take possession of our AI
and dismiss and strike our legal actions.
August 31, 2000 -
Appellee bank’s (3 page) Motion, response to our Reply to
Apelles’s Original Brief asking the court to strike our
Response, stating in part: "The Germanos are persistent in their
attempt to supplement the record with offensive allegations of
professional misconduct, unethical, and illegal behavior of the
Appellee and its officers, directors and lawyers. Appellant's
response to Apelles’s Motion To Strike is insulting to the Court
and ignores the significance of the Appellate Rules of Appellate
procedure ("FRAP") and federal precedent."
"Furthermore, the Germanos seek to remand this case to the
district court for a trial by jury on the merits, and have been
litigating this issue and harassing the Appellee for over
fifteen years. The District Court properly granted Apelles’s
motion for summary judgment. The Germano appeal is frivolous and
a continuous waste of time and resources. The Court should not
allow pro se litigants to ignore the rules that our federal
system has in place for its judicial process.
September 7, 2000 -
Our motion "Complaint Regarding Appellee Counselor's Disregard
For The ABA'S Model Rules Of Professional Conduct," in part:
Apelles’s Louisiana counsel, rather than submit evidence to
disprove our claims, persists in slandering our integrity and
alleging our pleadings are insulting to this Court. Appellants
ask the Court to protect us from further abuse and require
Apelles’s Louisiana counsel to withdraw from representing
Appellee and to grant our motion to supplement the record and
for what other relief this court deems justifiable under the
extraordinary facts of our case.” The Motion is also not listed
on the Docket.
September 13, 2000 -
Court issued its Order denying Appellant's motion to supplement
the record, and granted Apelles’s motion to Strike our Motion to
Supplement the record. Had the court approved our motion to
supplement the record, the interests of justice would have
compelled remanding our case to the district court for a trial
by jury on the merits, a right denied us since January 4, 1985.
September 22, 2000 -
Appellants timely filed Appellants Motion For En banc
Reconsideration Of The Court Order Denying our Motion To
Supplement The Record, docketed August 1, 2000 (above).
Due to concern for the likely
defeat of our appeal, due to a court clerk’s misleading phone
and written directives, February 9, 2001, Appellants petitioned
Senator Leahy, Chairman, of the Senate Judiciary Committee, to
invoke congressional oversight powers to defend the
constitutionally protected right to trial by jury and due
process.
The court, however, disregarded settled precedent, ruled to
uphold the lower court order Striking our lawsuit docketed a
civil rights case.
Though, no written response was
received from the Senate Judiciary Committee to our petition, a
court clerk (by phone) informed us that that our appeal was
reopened. The case was dismissed a second time shortly
thereafter.
Thus, the cabal of lawyers and concert acting judges
named/pictured on our website, www.predatorybankers.com have
employed the legal system through felony enterprise of
violations of constitutionally protected due process to conduct
its predatory lending scheme to take our motel representing all
that we worked for since our marriage in 1948, and drive us out
of a successful business and only source of income. If not for
our children we would be homeless.
Affiants, having obeyed the laws that govern our society and as
shown on our website, www.predatorybankers.com , Vincent Germano
and eight brothers, record for one family, did our part in
military service in defense of our government against rogue
governments of good people in WW2. Brother Charles Germano,
Pilot, U.S. Army Air Force, Veteran, D-day, Berlin Airlift,
Korea and Viet Nam, is interred in Arlington National Cemetery,
Washington, D. C.
In honor of those who lost their lives, and the good men, and
now women, in military service risking life and limb to defend
our government, Affiants implore congressional representatives
of the house or senate to pass a Congressional Reference
resolution, like in the “Inslaw case” (of similar government
wrong doing suffered by Affiants through the past 23 years). The
enabling statute for the U.S. Court of Federal Claims includes
the provision whereby either the House or Senate, acting alone,
can pass a Congressional Reference resolution for the plaintiff.
Such resolution automatically waives technical defenses that may
be available to the government, such as statutes of limitation
and sovereign immunity and orders the U.S. Court of Appeals to
hold a hearing on whether the United States owes the plaintiff
compensation neither as a matter of law or of equity. The Chief
Judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals, pursuant to the
Congressional Reference resolution, submits an Advisory Report
to the House or the Senate on the results of the hearing. The
House or the Senate then, as a matter of its discretion, can
pass a private bill to compensate the plaintiff at whatever
level deems appropriate, if any level, in light of the Advisory
Report. The private bill, however, must be passed by both houses
of Congress and signed into law by the President.
Affiants, having suffered violations of due process in the
courts, and denial of grievances and complaints by the Oklahoma
Bar, law enforcement and regulatory systems of state/federal
government. Petitions for congressional reference resolution
were denied by Congressional Representatives during four
administrations of both major-political-parties. Several
representatives (officers of the court of the judicial branch
themselves) denied our petitions wrongfully citing
Constitutional Separation of Powers Doctrine.
The cabal of morally corrupted attorneys, judges and bankers
named herein and on our website, are fully aware that
“injunctive relief” awarded bank in the above cases in violation
of court rules, based on perjured facts and legal president in
the criminal conspiracy of our legal counselors and bank’s Peter
G. Pierce III, outlined herein and documented by the court
records in our care, are “void on their face,” have no force or
effect.
“There is no more crueler tyranny than that which is exercised
under color of law, and with the color of justice …” U.S. v.
Jannotti, 673 F. 2d 578, 614 (3d Cir.1982) .
