Thompson v. The Florida Bar

Filing 176

NOTICE by John B. Thompson to the Court that Chaykin is on Ad Hoc Committee (Thompson, John)

Thompson v. The Florida Bar

Doc. 176

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA JOHN B. THOMPSON, Plaintiff, v. THE FLORIDA BAR and DAVA J. TUNIS, Defendants. PLAINTIFF'S NOTICE TO US DISTRICT COURT JUDGE ADALBERTO JORDAN COMES NOW plaintiff, John B. Thompson, hereinafter Thompson, as an attorney on his own behalf, and hereby provides notice to this Honorable Court as follows: 1. The court has set for tomorrow morning a hearing on, among other things, its show cause order regarding its threatened discipline of Thompson by the "Ad Hoc Committee" for daring to prove his case and in doing so bringing the court "obscenity" whose distribution The Bar is facilitating. 2. The court has already received a filing from Thompson proving how Case No. 07-21256 (Judge Adalberto Jordan)

impartiality challenged this Committee is. 3. But what appears this morning in the Miami Herald really puts the icing on the ad hoc lynch mob argument that is now irrefutable. Consider this at http://www.miamiherald.com/1022/story/262190.html: Susan Eisenberg, Steve Chaykin and Marlene Quintana, all shareholders in Akerman Senterfitt's Miami office, have been appointed members of the ad hoc

committee on rules and procedure for the United States District Court, Southern District of Florida. 4. Thompson is not kidding when he suggests that if anybody needs a psych evaluation in this unfortunate setting, it is not Thompson but rather any sentient being who actually thinks that a Committee with Steve Chaykin and his fellow travelers could possibly be fair to Thompson. 5. Chaykin's name is right there in Thompson's Third Amended Complaint noting that Chaykin is Thompson's "designated reviewer." Chaykin is the weirdo who approved The Bar's latest demand that Thompson settle ALL of these ethics issues by getting back onto The Bar's mental health couch. The Bar's Sheila Tuma says so. 6. Chaykin is the crazed leftwing loon who is so "out there" that he was told "No" by the Board of Governors of The Florida Bar to his petulant demand that one of The Bar's sections be allowed to lobby for gay adoption. When the Governors said no, Chaykin had a typical illiberal liberal meltdown and said that anyone who did not agree with him is "outside the core values of The Bar" and is "an enemy of The Bar." He didn't say that in a restroom. He said it in the Daily Business Review. 7. Judge Jordan, are you SERIOUS when you suggest that this Committee, with the "my gay way or the highway" Steve Chaykin on it, along with all the others whose judging of Thompson would be like Larry Flynt judging James Dobson, can be fair to Thompson? If this court seriously wants to turn Thompson over to these people, then we are off to the Eleventh Circuit quicker than a New York minute and this court will be embarrassed by the ruling coming out of the Eleventh Circuit. If this court seriously wants to sit on a U. S. Supreme Court, as that possibility was mentioned should there

have been a John Kerry Presidency, which, by the way, SLAPP Bar complainant Blank Rome helped make sure could not happen by using on John Kerry the methods it has used on Thompson, then all this court has to do is turn Thompson over to this Ad Hoc lynch mob. 8. Once again, none of this has ever been about remedying unethical conduct. It has been about getting Jack Thompson because he is, to quote the Taliban-like Bar Governor Steven Chaykin, "an enemy of The Bar," who is "outside the core values of The Bar." This guy and his henchmen are outside the core values of the United States, for Heaven's sakes, but Thompson would not dream of "disciplining" him for that. That type of thought policing is engaged in by people who use the Bill of Rights as if it were toilet paper. 9. One more thing, before a thankful plaintiff departs. Does Thompson have "an adequate state remedy?" Apparently not. Barry Richard tells this court that Mason v. Florida Bar guarantees Thompson an audience before the Bar Governors on his constitutional issues before a trial. It is, Thompson submits, hard to hear that and keep a straight face when Thompson receives from the President-Elect of The Florida Bar a series of e-mails which read as does the one he just got from John G. White as follows:
