I am still in shock and can hardly reason it out myself and I am informing every one of the gross corruption of the courts m Oregon who steal peoples children and property with absolutely no legal right to take them. Since we last spoke there is a new development! We have just recently placed our cases in the hands of our new Attorney General John Kroger who was just elected by the vote of the people! Finally the "Crooks, Liars and Thieves" will have to answer for the cnmes they have committed. We had a meeting with Mr Kroger and he accepted our cases in person! He has a tremendous background as a federal prosecutor As Oregon's Attorney General and our top law enforcement officer he has the power to clean it up! He has wntten a book now on sale called "Convictions" which tells his true story as a prosecutor battling against Mafia killers, drug kmgpms and Enron thieves. He is a man of integrity and NOT FOR SALE in my opinion! I have written to each person as I learn about them so I can expose this on -going FRAUD and protect my interests under the law This facility in Port Angeles was bought exclusively for the maintenance of my health to detoxify my body from the poisoning I received in 1979, when I used the insulation product called "Energy Guard" that contained boric acid as a fire retardant, which is a poison. By the individuals depnving me of my health care they have endangered my life, knowingly, willingly and wantonly It is A'1 °T EMPTED MURDER by any standards to withhold health care Thelma Durham was aware I bought this Spa for health reasons in November 1993 from Windermere Real Estate, her company! I then turned down a sale in June of 2003 that she had written and then she "sold" this facility to Mr Jafay in March 2004 and lied to me for a week, starting May 27, 2004 before the "sale" closed, June 1, 2004 and said that she didn't know who was "buying "it. She aided and abetted the theft of my Spa! Mr Jafay was made aware of this fraud soon after he "bought" my Spa when I sued them to protect my health care. They did not divulge or record the transaction in the court files which is against Bankruptcy Law Rule #6004- 1 I told him I wanted him to be my hero and stop the fraud which he could have done. I am enclosing a copy of the letter I sent him after many telephone conversations begging him to STOP THE FRAUD and tellmg him of my health condition and the desperate need for my facility Instead he destroyed it functionally by stnpping it and damaged me in the process. I thank you Jim for your time and mterest in justice. I am enclosing the booklets, "The Theft of The Spa, Body, Mind Spint" and "Crooks, Liars Thieves" They explain how these crimes were committed and who did them. I also have completed several more books and booklets including 930 pages m my super book. I am now compiling other peoples stones and a book on the Oregon State Bar corruption and corrupted members titled "OSB OUT, A Yoke around the Neck of, Justice." We are preparing an initiative to abolish the Oregon State Bar as it has proven to be an association practicmg organized crime. The Bar does nothing but protect its corrupt members as they fleece the public out of their rightfully owned property and destroying families by crimes, sham court proceedings and disguised attorneys fees. Their conduct is wrongful and against even their own laws that are supposed to control their activities. They were chartered into existence as a public corporation to protect the people of Oregon from the unethical practice of law by the Oregon State Legislature m 1935, to protect the public from unethical attorneys and that was upheld in the Supreme Court in 1936 in the Eastman case. And now the Oregon State Bar has done a complete turnaround and openly assists the corrupt attorneys by covering up for them and aiding and abetting their cnmes. The truth is out and they are next. They have 12,000 attorneys m Oregon according to Bruce Rubin of Miller Nash law firm who is the bars chief honcho and each pays $3600 00 a year for this unlawful "PROTECTION That is roughly $4,320,000 00 they are putting in their pocket mstead of paying the victims of their members. The insurance company called Professional Liability Fund owned by the members of the Bar will then turn around and sue the victims to recover the costs of representing the unethical and corrupt members of the bar Jesse James didn't have it this good. Ha, Ha. I will be in touch again! Thanks. M Krause. Augu.st:9, 2005 To Kurt Way Re: -Real Property located.at 5.11 E. lst:Street, Port Angeles,.

I thought as a police official you could tell a thief when you saw one or at least find out the truth about the underlying theft. I begged you to give me a police report which gave you the opportunity to ask me about anything asserted in it, even though you wouldn't give it to me. You obviously prefer to blacken my name because the last words you spoke to me were, "I was a suspect!" But you didn't ask any questions, Why Not? My friend Dee and I paid a visit recently to the Police department in Port Angeles and told your office we wanted the police report and after much haggling and discussing the rights of an American citizen under F O.I.A. (which you didn't know what it was) and two trips to the office, you finally released it to us. This was almost 5 years after the "incident" was reported! Those police reports which contain Character Assassination, Defamation, Liable, Slander and outnght lies as written in the police report, were all related to you by Kurt Jafay An investigation by you would clear my name and not leave such GARBAGE in a police file about the Victim of FRAUD as I am. VICTIMIZED AGAIN! I have provided all the evidence to show the illegal seizure of my Spa, in my booklet "Crooks, Liars Thieves accomplished through crimes by the Bankruptcy Court, officers of the court and other parties and the willful participation in the crimes and fraud by Kurt Jafay Kurt Jafay was notified of the Fraud in a lawsuit filed on June 8, 2004 to Quiet Title to my Spa. It was filed within 7 days from the time I had learned of just a small part of the scheme to rob me of all my assets and 7 days after the secreted closing statement was issued. I had to sue him under John Doe because his papers were never filed in Bankruptcy Court by the corrupt trustee Michael Grassmueck which is another creme against Bankruptcy Rule 6004 -1, and withholding documents from a public record required to be filed within 30 days from the date of "sale (this was March 2004) Kurt Jafay papers, if they exist, have never been entered in the court file m the Bankruptcy Court m Portland, Oregon. I also talked to him several times on the telephone and on one occasion he asked me to release him from the lawsuit and I told him to give me back my property and I would if the building and my contents were intact! This was when he could have returned everything to me and avoided the crimes he committed and the prosecution for committing them and the consequences of further litigation from me. Kurt Jafay chose not too! He also told me on the phone that he heard I was a bad person which proves he was carrying on the name calling by other people as well. He also told me he would rent the place to me for $500 00 a month and I replied why would I rent my own property? The last time he placed a call to me he was telling me he didn't know about the Fraud, (his voice was conspicuously shaken) smce he now knows he is a conspirator in bankruptcy crime, a federal crime started by Steve Arntt OSB 97201 my attorney when he was "falsifying the financial affairs of the debtor He cannot benefit by "Unjust Enrichment" for aiding and abetting the crone. So first Kurt Jafay ignores the FRAUD warnings and chooses to rob me and then thinks he can discredit me by destroying my name and you are helping him. I demand that you investigate his allegations and prove to yourself the liar that he is. Please remind him that perjury is a crime as is knowingly falsifying a police report and lying to a police officer! That is if you care whether or not you are lied too! I do not want this case closed until all the facts are in evidence! I gave my all providing a beautiful facility to the citizens of Port Angeles and my name shall not be tarnished any further! °I AM OREGON'S TERRI SCHIAVO" "UNJUST ENRICHMENT PURCHASERS" OF KRAUSE REAL ESTATE FROM TRUSTEE'S BANKRUPTCY FRAUD SWINDLE!

"THE TRUTH AS IT APPEARS" Roger Weidner has come to the assistance of crime victims, who became crime victims from their interaction with their attorneys, members of the Oregon State Bar These members are committing crimes against their own clients in order to steal their assets and obtain their property without paying for it. The clients don't have a fighting chance because the courts are run by judges who also are members of the Oregon State Bar No attorney in Oregon will take a MALPRACTICE case against another attorney! The result is the unbridled corruption of the "officers of the court" against the citizens of Oregon. The Oregon State Bar will then hire and pay for the services of other attorneys from large local law firms to strip the former clients of all their earthly possessions. This is disguised as the collection of attorney's fees to the eyes of the general public because the corrupt attorneys use lawsuits against the former clients to run up the imaginary bill. The former clients can't possibly defend themselves against the years of law school education, cronyism and tricks of the members of the Oregon State Bar THE ANSWER. (1) ABOLISH THE OREGON STATE BAR.

(Definitions from Blacks Law Dictionary) JUNE 11, 2009 Testimony in Oregon State Bar v Roger Weidner Case 06- 1212468 My name is Miriam Emma Krause, I am here to testify today, under oath, in support of Roger Weidner, who has been accused by the Oregon State Bar of practicing law in the State of Oregon. Noted, If Mr Weidner is practicing law he is the only attorney in Oregon doing it, because the rest of them are practicing crime I was used as a guinea pig by Assistant U S.Trustee Pamela Griffiths, and Bankruptcy Court Judge Patricia Madi Brown aka Judge Trish Brown to help the Oregon State Bar in prosecution of Roger Weidner as he was trying to expose fraud being perpetrated on me by and through the Bankruptcy Court. After informing Assistant U S Trustee Pamela Griffiths by telephone on July 7, .2004, Mr Weidner pointed out in a letter to her on July 8, 2004 that my attorney, Steve Arntt OSB 97201, "had altered the information Krause gave him to prepare Schedule D, (Creditors holding secured claims) The information she gave him is on Exhibit A." He goes on to say that Steve Arntt had listed 2 non existent debts, one for $228,750 00 and one for $296,000 00 as he had submitted a document showing six houses when I owned only four houses. I had 4 mortgages not 6 and those 2 non existent mortgages amounted to $524,750 00 Mr Weidner also told her Steve Arntt had forged my name on a document and sent her exhibits from my file to prove it. He asked her to help me and gave her my telephone number to call me! I have since calculated Steve Arntt's fraudulent misrepresent- ations differently just by subtracting the claim amounts from the falsified mortgages. On the fraudulent Schedule A Steve Arntt fraudulently listed 3325 N.E Wasco as $379, 964 58 when the claim amount was $1 91,811 00 entered by Linda Johannson on Sept. 24, 2003 and he fraudulently listed 5008 N.E.Broadway as $456,694'18 when the claim amount entered in, the Claims Register was $241, 943.39 That was entered by "trustee" Michael Grassmueck on Dec 15, 2003 Mr Weidner researched the file in July of 2004 but must have missed the Claim Register I was told by the bankruptcy court clerk in Aug. 2005 that the Claims Register did not exist in Oregon. However the file would have shown that Broadway was abandoned to me on Nov 18, 2003 This was the process Grassmueck used to embezzle it. Grassmueck and his cronies made $160,000 00 when they sold it for $399,000 (He said "Inconsequential value to the estate Grassmueck was aware of the discrepancies at the 341 Creditors Meeting and mentioned it 11 times to Steve Arntt about the figures he submitted. Many of Arntt's filings were inaccurate as well as untimely Arntt also committed Legal Malpractice when he didn't even answer the Claims for Relief on my 2 Wasco properties, my residence Arntt had committed fraud on me when he forged my name on Oct. 9 and 10th, 2003 and falsely amended my bankruptcy schedules, changing my Portland, Oregon mortgage liabilities, which he had prepared and filed on Sept. 11, 2003 as $947, 036 00 to filing in Oct. 9 -10 the amount of $1,366,791 76 This was a falsification of $419 755 76 that was never owed or supported by claims filed by the creditors. Either way two mortgage balances were not the true amount owing and not supported by any claims. This became a Bankruptcy Crime of "falsifying the financial affairs of the debtor" and is punishable by 5 year jail terms and fines of $250,000 00 Steve Arntt OSB 97201 and Linda Johannson OSB 90306 were very active in this scheme to defraud me knowingly using fraudulent misrepresentations. Assistant U S Trustee Pamela Griffith's duty was to report this bankruptcy crime and stop the fraud, instead, when Mr (4) Weidner asked her, as any concerned citizen can do, to investigate and do her appropriate duty, she retaliated against him and participated in this frivolous lawsuit. As her duty as overseer she was actively participating in the fraud by allowing it as it was occurring. Her vehement reaction to Mr Weidner proves my point. When I was named by the Oregon State Bar in this case against Roger Weidner, I was never told in any way, shape or form my name was being used in these trumped up charges against him. I was never served a copy of the complaint, I was never subpoenaed to come to court to testify, I was never given a chance to respond and when I was in court, I volunteered to testify in Judge Wilson's court and that was rejected by her In fact, none of the three people mentioned by the Oregon State Bar in this case has appeared to testify in court against Mr Weidner and give him his constitutional right to face his accusers. The only people appearing as witnesses are attorneys, members of the Oregon State bar, as well as Judge Trish Brown's and Pamela Griffiths perjured written testimony (Read Pamela Griffiths letter to Oregon State Bar now) This letter signed by Assistant U S Trustee Pamela Griffiths was prepared by the Miller Nash law firm which is the offices of Bruce Rubin, the counsel for the Oregon State Bar Ms Griffiths is an active member of the Oregon State Bar 81249 and should be capable of writing her own Affidavit! Judge Trish Brown has used this lawsuit as retaliation against Roger Weidner as well He also served her the papers for the lawsuit I filed on June 7, 2004 to Quiet the Title of my Health Spa, a facility I use to combat a 30 year chronic illness. I asked her for an expedited hearing on June 1, 2004 after discovering the trustee was destroying my health care I nedd to give you some background. On May 27, 2004, I had driven up to Port Angeles, Washington to pay property taxes, to check on my building and to stay in my apartment overnight and enjoy my tea room once again. After paying property taxes of almost $3,000 00 I drove to my property and discovered Bankruptcy signs and Coldwell Banker Uptown Realty Real Estate signs on my property, which is my health care facility The Spa, Body, Mind and Spirit was purchased on Nov 1, 1993 to alleviate my illness called "Boron Poisoning." I got poisoned from using a recycled newspaper insulation product called "Energy Guard" on April 23, 1979 (30 years ago) which contained boric acid as a fire retardant. I owned this building free and clear for several years. It was a Health Exemption under Chapter 7 liquidation, and not to be touched under Chapter 11 reorganization. I was told by Joseph Keenan, Steve Arntt's assistant, that they had changed my petition, from Chapter 7, which Steve Arntt had mistakenly filed, to Chapter 11 at my request on September 14, 2003 which. was 3 days after Steve Arntt had filed my voluntary petition. I had discovered over that weekend, Arntt had filed the wrong Chapter as I did not want to sell anything and I qualified for a reorganization. I only owed $1996.24 in unsecured claims and had approximately, at that time, real estate equity of $465,000 00 Judge Trish Brown had called Steve Arntt OSB 97201 to the hearing on June 2, 2004 Arntt was fired on October 21, 2003 after not speaking to me throughout the entire 40 days he "represented" me He filed a Notice of Withdrawal as my attorney on November 17, 2003 almost 30 days after he was fired. Judge Trish Brown had called my fired attorney to the hearing. I objected to his presence and asked him to leave when he proceeded to sit behind me, but he (49 stayed anyway and sat behind me despite my objection. I felt he had no business being there She kept him in the hearing and used him as a witness as he testified against me I learned much later she had purposely neglected to sign his withdrawal order and only signed it 71/2 months later but did not put a date on it. Only by the court stamp of June 8, 2004 can you tell it was ever used. It was an invalid document because it lacked the date On October 17, 2005 she related she was to busy to timely sign that order It was done only after I filed suit to quiet the title of my Spa on June 7, 2004 Now Judge Trish Brown is claiming under the penalty of perjury that Mr Weidner was at the heanng acting as my attorney (Read Judge Trish Browns letter to the Oregon State Bar now) She said she couldn't hear what he was saying. IN MY OPINION, it would be a pretty sorry attorney who doesn't address the court, doesn't file any papers in the case, doesn't announce his appearance as someone's attorney and then doesn't speak up so the judge can hear him. We all know Roger Weidner does not have a problem of being heard. So her allegations are suspect, SHE was aware of the fact that there were two attorneys present in the court room, none acting on my behalf, without ME even being aware of one Why did she not question Mr Weidner's presence at that time? If she had asked me, I could have told her on the record that presently I was without an attorney If I had asked Mr Weidner to help me he said he would have told me how corrupt the legal system was and to stay out of it! (Remember, both myself and Mr Weidner became aware of the crimes during the months after this June 2, 2004 heanng, not before) At the very worst, had I chosen to do deeds in Lieu of Foreclosure, I would still own my free and clear Health Spa, Body f.5,! Mind and Spirit with all the collectibles and antiques, my Port Angeles Port to Port Hostel, my Mothers Soap Company with all my inventory and equipment, my classic 1979 Cadillac Fleetwood limousine, my 1985 Aluma-lite 26 foot Motor Home, my furniture, my personal possessions, my good name and my dignity I could have escaped this 5 year version of hell at the hands of these Crooks, Liars and Thieves At the very best had the City of Portland not been engaged in a housing inspector scandal, I would have completed the sale of my Broadway House with equity to catch up my mortgages, complete the purchase of another house for an addition to Port to Port Hostel, had the necessary Health care I provided for myself for 10 years with my own beautiful facility, had my Mothers Soap Company to provide for my needs, kept all my furniture and personal possessions and been able to look my children in the face jubilantly instead of being a homeless victim. Now all I am is a crime victim with no one being held accountable for the gross, egregious, unlawful, illegal theft of my life as I knew it! Judge Trish Brown secretly kept Steve Arntt on as my attorney of record, which served to subvert my mail as he did according to the Certificates of Service which lists him on them. She kept him on after he had been fired, in order to conduct their fraud on me whereby they were able to rob me of all my assets. There are several other attorneys who have severely wronged me and participated in this on -going Racketeering and Organized Crime scheme including Linda Johannson OSB 90306, David Mills OSB 97728, Fred Smith OSB 65118, etc who are not the focus at this hearing. I have listed 96 crimes here, many of them have multiple counts of federal offenses, felonies warranting prison sentences and fines including Use Mail for Fraud Conflicts of Interest Conversion Collusion Coercion Concealment of Documents Fraud Aiding and Abetting Fraud "Honest Services Fraud" Forgery Perjury —Misrepresentation Fraudulent Misrepresentation Falsifying the Financial Affairs of the Debtor False Declarations False Claims False Oaths Bribery Bias Blackmail Knowing Disregard of Bankruptcy Law,.

By using his crimes and through the Dereliction of Duty by "Officers of the Court" employees of the court system permittmg the crimes of others, he robbed me! With equity of $810,000 in five properties, Real Property only, was stolen to pay out $228 17 while my unsecured debt was only $1996.24 My case is a case of "Conspiracy to Defraud" with the Cover -up of the crimes listed above by many officials aka officers of the court acting under the "Color of Law So your Honor, now that you are aware of these criminal, (unlawful) dastardly, (sneaky) and parasitic (bottom feeder) tactics resulting in the ruination of citizens lives, what will you do about it?

IT MAY CONCERN (Kurt Jafay Police report) When Krause learned of this "incident" she called the Port Angeles Police Department to get some information about what supposedly happened and asked for a police report. She was denied. Barbara McFall after much prodding told Krause that she was a suspect in the crime and would not release any information. Several years later and only after the threat of filing under the Freedom of Information Act did she produce a copy of the report for Krause. That same day she officially closed the case. Barbara .McFall never even called on the telephone to ask Krause. questions or give her the opportunity to clear her name. This defamatory statement filled with accusations toward Krause is. now a part of the permanent record assaulting, her character and reputation! Krau was not granted the right to dispute the accusations and set the record straight. There is no mention in the record that Krause is the victim of Bankruptcy Fraud through the court in Portland, Oregon and Kurt Jafay is a major participant rn those crimes who was given the option of stopping the fraud against Krause. He and his .mother are knowingly in possession of stolen personal property, the contents that were in The Spa and the garage! They have ignored the Fraud warning Krause gave them.. It is also common knowledge that Krause's possessions were looted by the real estate companies when it was listed with Coldwell Banker before it was "SOLD Witnesses will be called forward at the proper time. By the time Krause discovered the Bankruptcy Fraud her property was looted so the instinct to do the nght thing would have expo the unethical, illegal theft of her personal possessions. No investigation was done about that. when Krause asked Barbara McFall to check into the crimes committed against her! Krause filed a lawsuit to Quiet Title on June 7, 2004 only 10 days after she learned the crooks were "selling" her Spa, her only reliable Health Care that was protected under Bankruptcy Exemption Law. The trustee Michael Grassmueck and the U.S.Trustees Pam Griffiths and Ilene Lashinsky have violated the Bankruptcy law so egregiously that it has taken Krause 4 years to decipher the crimes and how they were committed. It is a federal crime to falsify the financial affairs of the' an on- going blatant Frau and illegal seizure of all of Krause's property has been carried out. Aided and abetted by no less than 110 people and 96 crimes so far that Krause has identified. The evidence is solid and Oregon's new Attorney General John Kroger is now investigating the crimes committed against Oregon Citizens by their own attorneys, all members of the corrupt Oregon State Bar On 12/13/041 viat dispatched to an open dOOr at 511' E 1 St. I arrived at the building and made contact withthe reporting party, Mark ROberts.

Kurt Jafay was Noticed of the Fraud on this property on JUNE 7, 2004 six days after the CLOSING STATEMENT was issued but that document was Never Filed in Court!! EXHIBIT 1- Closing statement June 1, 2004 does not show any payout for mortgages because there were none Krause owned her Health Spa free and clear and all contents were paid for as well, everything inside the building and in the garage was paid for EXHIBIT 2- Kurt Jafay said in his police report, `Jafay stated Krause was not happy with him for purchasing on the foreclosed building and business. That is a BLATANT he as evidenced by the closing statement showing no mortgage owing! EXHIBIT 3- Closing statement shows a Net to Seller of $109,450 00 after the crooks in the real estate offices of Coldwell Banker, Windermere and John Scott took their share of the heist. Krause was not an insolvent debtor and her property was stolen by the crooked trustee Michael Grassmueck and his partners in crime So far a reported 96 crimes and rising. Just one of them Use Mail for Fraud, he started on September 17, 2003, is Federal Offense punishable with a mandatory 20 year sentence in prison, six days after Krause filed he was setting up FRAUD! EXHIBIT 4- Kurt Jafay states on the police report, "Some of the cups and saucers are quite valuable" acknowledgmg Krause was ripped off with no appraisals done on the stolen antiques and cementing the value of Krause's stolen property. EXHIBIT 5- Krause can produce two witnesses to testify that she cannot bear to even look at the shape her property is in now as it is so totally destroyed by these crooks, obvious illegal seizures of all her property and that she had. the opportunity to view The Spa inside personally but had no desire to see the destruction of her 10 year effort to provide her own health care destroyed. For Kurt Jafay to say that Krause was sleeping in building shows the extent the crook will go, to C -H A and deflect from his crimes! EXHIBIT 6- The police report says, "Jafay stated it appeared as if someone had gone through the files as well and that didn't seem to fit a. normal criminal," Obviously Kurt Jafay knows a lot about criminals since he is one! EXHIBIT 7- The police report says, "Jafay stated he had been told that Krause was hanging around the building and stole the tea set that she had owned and lost in the bankruptcy Krause doesn't hang around anywhere (Jafay's Gang Talk) and still legally owns the possessions that were stolen from her, so how could she or would she steal what already belongs to her? Kurt Jafay, YOUR STATEMENT IS GARBAGE! The charges of Defamation and Liable are being written as we speak. Thanks for the evidence!

Coldwell Banker Uptown Realty and Windermere Realty sales people worked along with the bankruptcy court Judge Trish Brown and Michael Grassmueck to secret information and documents from the court record. As my only effective Heath Aid it was exempt under a Chapter 7 and not to be touched in Chapter 11 either This was a premeditated Fraud and Theft! (6) This smaller book called.

Unlike the larger book this has not been entered into the court record m its entirety (7) A larger version of Crooks, Liars Thieves— Bankruptcy Gone A' Mueck" consists of 800 pages. This is printed on standard size paper in order for the documents to be easy to read and decipher the full extent of this fraud. This is not just a book, it is an education for the average person. For the student a lesson to be learned about know corrupt the world they will be dealing with is.

It is hard to phantom learning to catch thieves that have practiced for so long, who know the law and willingly choose to break it.

Oregon State Bar's New Street Address is; 16037 S W Upper Boones Ferry Road Tigard, Oregon 97224 PLEASE NOTE. Oregon State Bar's Post Office Address is P O.Box 231935 Tigard, Oregon 97281 The zip codes are different on the street and post office box addresses. Michael Grassmueck "trustee" and the Portland Bankruptcy Court changed the zip -code in my bankruptcy case six days after I filed from 97232 to 97208 and lost 140 documents that were filed in my case with no service to me. It is called Use Mail for Fraud and was deliberately used to avoid due process and resulted in the theft of all my property After they were caught almost 2 years later Grassmueck again invented another invalid address. See Exhibit H in "Crooks, Liars and Thieves- Bankruptcy Gone a'Mueck" Michael D Schrunk District Attorney Multnomah County Courthouse 1021 S W 4 Ave. Rm 600 Portland, Oregon 97204 February 12, 2008 Dear District Attorney, The lawyer for the people hasn't been doing a very good job for me. I have been fighting the crime and corruption of the bankruptcy court since June 2004 I guess as a senior citizen, I don't matter! I brought you a forgery done by Steve Arntt OSB 97201 on October 9, 2003 but not discovered by me until June 21, 2004 I was still on title of my property, was in possession and could have stopped the fraud on me had you chosen to do your duty With the "assistance" of the police disregarding my rights and deliberately not doing their job to "serve and protect I lost 43 years of effort and every thing I worked for since I came to Portland in 1964 It's a disgrace! I provided low income housing for people in Multnomah County which made me vulnerable for the tactics of police abuse, intimidation and harassment to help these crooks perpetrate crimes on me. Along with the illegal seizure of my assets, they have put me out of business because my properties were the locations of my business's and provided housing, my livehood and health care for an environmental illness caused by a toxic insulation product. "Death by Decision is a real eye opener into this cover up of anoxic product put into landlords and tenants housing FREE! Unfortunately I am fighting to get back my assets stolen through the corrupt bankruptcy court, judge, trustee, attorneys etc. When I discovered people wouldn't believe my story, I proceeded to put together several books with the court documents to verify the truth and provide evidence of their crimes. "Crooks, Liars Thieves- Bankruptcy Gone A'Mueck" chronicles the fraud, forgery, fraudulent misrepresentation, etc. of the so called "officers of the court." Twenty six crimes so far and many, many more discovered every day I am making my books a lesson in whom to trust and an education by including the rules of law as bankruptcy administration should be carried out by observing the bankruptcy law not by abuse and disregarded for it. In the process of putting together those 2 books I learned the true meaning of cronyism. The connections, "conflicts of Interest are like a malignant cancer when it metastasizes and takes over the entire body, this is a cancer of greed and corruption that takes over whenever the opportunity arises. Then pretending they have the le aL,right under the "Color of Law" "The appearance or semblance, without the substance, of legal right" they stole every thing I owned. "It is misuse of power, possessed by virtue of state or federal law made possible only because the wrongdoer is clothed with authority of state." Pretending to act in the performance of his official duties, and having access only because of their position, they steal everything they can get m their sights. Of course they involve other people to help who then become accessories to the crimes including aiding and abetting fraud. "Crime, Corruption, Cronyism, Cover -up" details the information I have learned so far Of course it has only been since June 28, 2005 that I started to learn of the illegal acts pulled on me by being fortunate enough to purchase a book called "Portable Bankruptcy Code And Rules." I could not get an a t t o r n e y to talk t o me f r o m the filing d a t e of September 1 I 2003 The Oregon State Bar allows their members to commit all the crimes they can conceive. The U.S Trustee's are supposed to monitor all the actions of the trustees to prevent abuse of the bankruptcy law, that is their job, and in my mind they are the biggest crooks of all. Knowingly, willingly and wantonly committing crimes. The judge should be wearing a black mask to match her black robe so one could tell your being robbed! Fraud versus Fact! I have done a "Time Line" in a smaller book so one can read it m the bath- room if they want, Ha! It covers the first 10 months of this,tragedy and will probably be' a 600 pager when I finally learn "the rest of the story I plan on filing a major law suit soon because this is the only way to get the attention required to prevent this problem from recurring and expose these criminals, so if possible, every one can avoid them. I am wiser for the experience but not wealthier! Another comes to mind, too soon old, too late smart! This is a political bombshell that the bankruptcy law says is punishable by fines not to exceed $250,000 00 and could put people in jail for 5 years or both. I do not know if that is for each offense. I know the poor people would be in jail for doing what has been done and that the rich (from stealing my money) hardly ever answer for their crimes! It is time to support the people who have EARNED their way Are you still unwilling to help me? Miriam Krause 3439 N.E.Sandy #371 Portland, Or 97232 (503) 515 -9587 can you be? And if you check, the material I sent you exposes the corruption of the Oregon State Bar by the activities of 6 of its members without counting the Judge! The corruption of the U S Trustees who were hired, in the United States Trustee Program, whose only duty is to prevent cronyism between the judge's and trustee's who are to administer the Bankruptcy Protection Act. In the event of fraud their duty under Bankruptcy Crimes USC Ch. 18 3057 is to report the crimes to law enforcement. According to you, these crooks are above the law I will quote you on that henceforth. I have a hard time dealing with Judge Brown who I recently learned knew of my illness and still robbed me of my lifesaving health care. She took a $300 000 00 Health Aid I owned free and clear and in the end paid out $228 17 That is Malicious Injury with fraud and Attempted Murder! If' your office had prosecuted the forgery by Steve Arntt OSB 97201 when I discovered it in 2004 this would have stopped this Bankruptcy Swindle. Judge Trish Brown has participated in these crimes and disregarded the rules and regulations, procedures that were put in place to catch such abuses and protect creditors and debtors. If she had done her duty it could have been stopped. If there had been one honest person it could have stopped it. Yet I see the manipulation of the laws by these crooks to conceal and cement their crimes. The crimes are against the law, felonies for anyone else. They commit them against the law, jail time and fines for anyone else. Yet they hide behind the law, lots of people in jail for doing much less. Corruption and Cover -up! Actions like this have destroyed all the good people's work who have suffered for justice and democracy, the American Dream has been shanghaied My 43 years of effort have been stolen, not by a thug on the street but by thugs in the courtroom! Thugs in police uniforms doing the bidding of thugs in the court room. Thugs called realtors doing the bidding of thugs in the court room. Thugs in the Department of Injustice. And now thugs in the District Attorneys office doing the bidding of thugs in the court room. Everyone's motivation is greed or cover -up. For a dirty little piece of paper worth 4 cents they sell their soul, the truth will come back to haunt all of you. This is a long winding trail I am forced to follow backtracking all the way to expose the people and the crimes they have done. It is far from total discovery Yesterday Micky Sherman said "The purpose of a lawsuit is to get to the truth." That is on the horizon; meanwhile I am pursuing full scale media exposure for this. I am calling my story and documentary about this legal corruption, "Slicko I know that I am not the only one who sees how (27) Grassmueck s record in the accounting department is sadly lacking accuracy as the earnest money supposedly paid by Kurt Jafay has never been entered in the court record.

(More in the "Timeline Book (28) Johnston Mitchell said in Arntt's Motion to Dismiss, August 19, 2004 CONCLUSION A federal statute reserves "exclusive jurisdiction" for the Oregon bankruptcy court. 28 U.S C. #1334 (e) Well Mr Mitchell it, also says (b) Notwithstanding any act of Congress that confers exclusive jurisdiction on a court or courts other than the. district Courts, the district courts shall have original but not exclusive jurisdiction of all civil proceedings arising under Title 11, or arising in or related to cases under title 11 (c) (1)Nothing in this section prevents a district court in the interest of justice, or in the interest of comity with state courts or respect for State law, from abstaining from hearing a particular proceeding arising under Title 11 or arising in or related to a case under Title 11 In the interest of justice this could have been heard, if the extent of the courts crimes were known to me then, this case would be fraud, malicious injury etc. The bottom line is no one wants to hold them accountable for their actions! But this shall be done another day in a federal court, in a better way at a much higher cost for the crooks. I will expose them! Michael Schrunk, I hope I haven t bored you? When you are exposing this kind of crime it takes a while This paper is much too harsh for the bathroom, so I hope you have read this. In fact you may enter it in my file so when my grandchildren grow up they can trace where their inheritance went. You and other law enforcement officials are supposed to check out the facts and uphold the establishment of law Administer indictments based on crimes committed. You don't have the resources to have a• face to face meeting with me, how much does that cost? My tax dollars have already paid for your services! Your only problem is you are part of the cover -up of this corruption. You are asking the court who committed the crimes to see that I get some justice!

MI.CH EL D SCHRUNK District Attorney Michael Schrunk District Attorney Multnomah County 1021 S W.Fourth #600 Portland, Oregon 97204 March 6, 2008 Re Krause V Arntt et al Case CVO4- 5383 Forgery, Fraud etc. Illegal seizure of Health Care, Malicious Injury, Attempted Murder, Embezzlement, Extortion, Obstruction of Justice, Use Mail for fraud 26 crimes without counting crimes by Portland Police! Dear District Attorney Michael Schrunk, I am wnting to you again, to let you know I now know of more of the extent of this fraud that was committed on me from September 11, 2003 to August of 2006 I have had to study on my own to understand the outrageous manipulation and disregard of the law by the people involved in this theft of my assets. Also the "attorneys" who were willing to bend the authority they possess in representing their clients by practicing crime instead of law In- stead of reporting people for their crimes as required by their code of ethics and the bankruptcy law they choose to aid, abet and join them. This Oregon State Bar is a corrupt, sad, pathetic organization! Never to late to prosecute! (1) Judge Trish Brown was asked to convert my case to a Chapter 11 on May 31, 2004 after I learned I was not in a Chapter 11 but I was still on title of all 5 properties and Arntt had not changed it when I asked him to on September 14, 2003, I filed my petition on September 11, 2003 He was fired on October 21, 2003 because he wouldn't talk to me! However Judge Brown kept him on as attorney of record until June 8, 2004 and even called him to the June 2, 2004 ex -parte hearing after being fired several months earlier This after Arntt's fraud, forgery, perjury and other crimes! A new twist now is a friend went with me to that meeting that had been a lawyer in the fraud department of Multnomah County You know him. The Oregon State Bar sued him recently for being there at the June 2, 2004 ex- parte heanng as an assistant for my disability and in a letter from Judge Brown accusing him of practicing law again was fined $95,000 00 for being there m the courtroom with me I was not aware I was "used" in this lawsuit and never spoke to Bruce Rubin OSB who represented the Oregon State Bar I was forbidden to speak on record in the court room when I did learn about it. This person was never allowed to face his accusers and question them as The security guards would follow me when I went to the bathroom and went to hearings in the judges chambers. It was intimidation and unwanted stress on my body and mind. All meant to discourage and scare me! This friend was later arrested at the police precinct as he was helping me obtain a summery of the police reports and buy a book on information about police procedures. ((June 14, 2006 Letter to Police Chief Rosie Sizer) (24) On September 3, 2005 I asked the courts attorney, Michael Blaskowsky for a copy of Grassmueck's bond. He said he would have to call David Mill: Grassmueck's attorney to see if it was ok to do that. I was charged $100.00 f the request and document however I see no entry in his accounting records, Form 1, for a bond until April 23, 2004 He was to obtain a bond before he took on my case filed September 11, 2003 and assumed by Grassmueck on September 17, 2003 according to Dillon E Jackson. Was I protected when he did this fraud or not? (25) The Court Docket with the first 18 documents was never entered into the electronic Pacer system and these are the paper files which show when and how the fraud was committed. Judge Brown tampered with them once before when she rearranged them and switched Arntt's documents around from October 9 10, 2003 which show the forgery and other crimes. I filed a Notice with the court. Not having these documents on a system used by most attorneys was a huge disadvantage to me and helped the crooks perpetrate thi fraud by concealment and obstruction of justice as people only started to believe me when they saw the documents! Now since the case has closed the only way to see them is to order them from the archives in Seattle and pay fo:. them. I ordered a set and paid $85 00, which is a big deal since they have stolen all my assets and left me with no way to make any money I don't see any lawyer paying to get copies to help me while under duress from the Oregon State Bar If they help me they risk their license! (26) I am presently in contact with the IRS as Grassmueck never filed any taa papers on my case. It is my understanding that there is no indication I was ever in bankruptcy and nothing is filed although I was charged $1200 00 by Rod Cockburn of Medford, Oregon who was appointed as an accountant by Judge Tnsh Brown. These papers he prepared are from amended fraudulent schedules of Arntt's with financial amounts that are "incorrect" according to the transcript and Grassmueck's own mouth. He was plannmg a total heist of my assets and never going on record as stealing them. I have turned him over to the criminal division of the IRS This is an ongoing fraud! (21)Grassmueck has no excuse, when the debtor exam was not held he was to have summoned me by court order to hold one or dismiss the case because of lack of prosecution. He was intent on keeping me uninformed, secreting hearings and documents, defaming my character so no one would talk to me, intimidating me as in Grassmueck's Revenge" with a threat on my life, using police abuse, harassment and illegal activities to drive me out of business, rushing the theft of my properties and robbing me of all my assets by infringing my civil and constitutional nghts, breaking both civil and bankruptcy law because there is nothing in the law that gave them the right to take my property Any of it! Grassmueck paid out a sum of $228.17 unsecured debt in the Final Report; it doesn't get much worse than this! He heldthe case open almost 3 years and closed it just in tine to avoid a mandated audit! It's plain to see he hasn't acted alone, he couldn't act alone! (22) Grassmueck embezzled my Broadway house after abandoning it to me on November 18, 2003 He then Listed it in the Claims Register on December 15, 2003 unbeknown to me until February 6, 2006. The title was in my name as I checked it constantly I started a new manager, Carl Michael Schreiner, on October 1, 2003 to get my reorganization plan i going by the 341 Meeting on October 17, 2003 with Schreiner living in the upstairs unit and renting out the main floor for the business. In 2006 I learnedt Schreiner was in bankruptcy with Grassmueck as his trustee and Arntt as his attorney, all secreted from me as their plan was to commander my Broadway house for themselves. Definite Conflicts of Interest because my attorney Arntt, my trustee Grassmueck and my manager, all were in cahoots. Schreiner embezzled all rent.money except $1800.00. Grassmueck's duty called for him to prosecute him and get the money back, but by the time I realized what was going on and I knew Grassmueck was on the take too! (23) I bought a bankruptcy book on June 28, 2005 and started studying as no attorney would talk to me. I know now the fix was in and the Oregon State Bar would never tolerate anyone helping me and exposing some of their corrupt members. In August 2005 I learned of the Claims Register and asked the court clerk to see. it. She said there was none in Oregon. It was accidentally found by a friend on February 6, 2006. So she was invested in the fraud and cover-up as well! Why would she refuse the information unless she was hiding the illegal and unorthodox activates of the officers of the court, the embezzlement of my Broadway house! the law guarantees. So now according to Judge Brown, I have 2 lawyers representing me in the sham hearing on June 2, 2004 My friend also checked the file and as a concerned citizen wrote Pam Griffiths a letter onJuly 8, 2004 asking her to look into the fraud he had discovered. He did not say he represented me but wrote her to contact me, "for follow -up please contact Miriam Krause." She did nothing that her job required such as reporting it to the proper authorities to stop the fraud only now has participated in the scam to discredit my frrend.and hide her own wrongdoing. My friend said in his letter he was helping me with my business and indeed had found an assistant for my housing business. It had nothing to do with the law On top of it all, he was never a bankruptcy attorney So now they can't add or comprehend what they read either How pathetic! The real gist of the matter is he wrote an article for the "Oregon Observer" exposing their acts and fraud on me, he is a steady contributor to that periodical, and they were just itching to slap anything agamst him! Plus keeping me in business didn't fit into their fraud plans on me either! (2) Judge Brown told the clerk, according to the clerk, not to accept the conversion papers and refused the filing which is against the bankruptcy law and my right to Conversion at any time during this bankruptcy I now know that .a new successor trustee would have been appointed and all paperwork would transfer from Grassmueck to the new successor trustee, all moneys and property would have to be accounted for which would have exposed this fraud. Selected Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Incorporated in Bankruptcy Rules 5 (e) "The clerk shall not refuse to accept for filing any paper presented for that purpose solely because it is not presented in proper form as required by these rules or any local rules or practice." Rule #706 Conversion (a) "The debtor may convert a case under this chapter to a case under Chapter 11, 12, or 13 of this title at any time." I qualified for a Chapter 11,1 was in possession and thought .I had been in a Chapter 11 all along. This was also done with filings several times, either filed andnot recorded or simply returned to me. Judge Brown even returned a package I sent to Chief Judge Elizabeth Pems. (3) Upon the appointment of Michael Grassmueck as "trustee" Dillon E Jackson, August 12, 2004 said "Notice of Mr Grassmueck's appointment was docketed on September 17, 2003 Appointment of a trustee in a chapter 7 case is automatic and required by statute. 11 U.S.C. 701 (a) (c)" That was the same day my zip code was changed to 97208; Grassmueck's zip code, from 97232 as listed on my petition. Use Mail for Fraud was done on that day and used throughout my case even after I discovered it on July 15, 2005 1 did a recap of my case and found 140 documents were sent by electronic mail, wrong zip code. I asked Judge Brown to investigate and she covered up themail fraud. It's called Use Mail for Fraud and was done intentionally (4)The Change of Address Form #101 "Note: This form must be signed and will be effective immediately" has never been filed on that day or any other day, yet my mail was subverted and Federal Rules Civil Procedure #5 states, "(3) Service by electronic means under Rule 5 (b) (2) (D) is not effective if the party making service learns that the attempted service did not reach the person to be served." Grassmueck knew of this subversion as noted in the transcript from the October 17, 2003 Creditors Meeting Exhibit R 14, 15, 16 and he and the bankruptcy court used it to defraud me by "No Due Process." (5) Grassmueck.did not use the mandatory Information Sheet at the 341 Meeting on October 17,.2003 as required by law to be read into the record and signed by the debtor with full understanding that the debtor knew of the different Chapters available under Bankruptcy Law I was to be informed what was available to me as well as the consequences of filing bankruptcy This was to be sure I was in the Chaptertof Bankruptcy I wanted and that fit my circumstances. Reorganization is for businesses or individuals with large equities and small percentage of debt. It allows regrouping and staying in possession of all properties. I owed $1996.24 in 4 debts. No credit cards, no car loans, no medical bills, no store accounts as one would refer to consumer debt. I had no less than $500,000 00 of equity Grassmueck commented on my equity throughout the 341 Meeting. (6) Grassmueck,led me to believe I was'in Chapter 11 by not holding a "Debtor Exam" as required by law, never obtained any operating papers such as utility bills, tax forms and eventually abandoned: all 4 houses to me in a (construed) letter on November 14, 2003 and "Intent to Abandon" on November 18, 2003 commenting "There is no equity for the estate in such property" and "Such property is of inconsequential value to the estate." All this after his comments of my huge equity at the 341 meeting. On December 4, 2003 he returned paperwork regarding the City of Portland permits on my Broadway House saying "We have no more use for these papers. We are retaining nothing for our file." See Embezzlement later! (18) Following the previous entry, Linda Johannson again committed Fraudulent Misrepresentation deliberately falsifying the:appraised value: of $360,000.00 for 3337 N.E.Wasco, Portland, Oregon 97232 as $255,580.00 undercutting- by$104,420.00 and then falsified a Brokers Professional Opinion/Appraisal thereby charging $220.00 for services not rendered instead using Multnomah County Tax Assessment Roll which again is not sufficient to establish market value. This property appraised at $360,000.00 for the house only less than I year ago. It has a storefront at 3339 N.E.Wasco that was never appraised and the entire property has a comparable on 33rd and E. Burnside of $619,000.00 Mine is a much nicer property This is a difference of another $259,000.00. She says I did not use 3337for my residence and that is a lie because 'it was my established residence since 1985 My driver's license showed it as my residence! She also said I didn't need it for business purposes, which is a lie because my Mothers Soap Company was located there as well as my Port to Port Hostels headquarters for the low income housing I started in 1990. This is a Fraudulent Misrepre- sentation by Linda Johannson of $463,420.00. This is 7 acts of fraud on this! (19) Arntt's falsehoods are $402,903 79 Johansson's falsehoods are $463,420.00 Total for properties Fraudulent Misrepresentations $866,323 79 This doesn't include $456.00 being misrepresented by Arntt as $4,562.48 and instead of the income of 2 1/2year as required by law of $241,407.00 he submitted only one yew-of $91,407 00 This was all done without my knowledge -and for the purpose of slanting my Chapter 11 into a Chapter 7 (20)However it does notexcuse Grassmueck from his duty to investigate the financial affairs of the debtor especially when he asked at the 341 Meeting on October 17, 2003, "Has the order for relief been entered on the Wasco property? I don't see that" which is a lie because he signed them ion October 11, 2003, six days before the 341 Meeting. Then he said, "That did not flow through at all from Nova Stars motions for relief" He is talking about the same thing. First he.says he hasn't seen it and then he says it doesn't flow through! (Meaning Arntt, says more is owed than Nova Star Mortgage Company Grassmueck, how big a clue do you need Grassmueck never admits he has already signed the claims as he is about 3 months premature with his actions. This was to be addressed 30 days after the conclusion of the last 341 meeting" December 5, 2003 making the effective date January 5, 2004 (Ex R page 15 -18) supervised the trustee, may not impartially adjudicate their nghts as adversaries of -that trustee. To address these concerns, judicial and admit trative functions within the bankruptcy system were bifurcated. (separate The administrative functions were placed within the Department of Justic through the creation of the .United States Trustee Program (USTP). The USTP acts in the public interest to promote the efficiency and to protect a preserve the integrity of the bankruptcy system. It works to secure the just speedy, and economical resolution of bankruptcy cases; monitors the conduct of parties and takes action to ensure compliance with applicable laws and procedures; identifies and investigates bankruptcy fraud and abu and oversees administrative functions in bankruptcy cases. Why then are they not doing their job? (17) Linda_Johannson .OSB 90306 choose to commit fraud twice in Bankruptcy Crimes Chapter 5 -8 False Claims, 18 U.S.C.#152 (1) Bankruptcy proceedings have commenced under Title 11 (2) The defendar presents or causes to be presented a proof of claim to the bankruptcy (3) The proof of claim is false as to a material matter (4) The defendant knew the proof of claim to be false. All criteria have been met. Fraudulent Misrepresentation whereby Johannson deliberately falsified the appraised value of $252,000.00 for 3325 N.E.Wasco Portland, Oregon 97232 as $152,820.00 undercutting by $100,000.00 and then falsified a Brokers Professional Opinion/ Appraisal thereby charging $115.00 for services not rendered instead used Multnomah. County_ Tax Assessment Roll -which is not sufficient or honored by any financial institution as per market value. Also an appraisal of $252,000.1ess than I year old was furnished to the court. She made the statement "Debtor has no equity in the Collateral, which is eroding with each missed payment." My July 2004 continuing improve- ments and repair bills will prove otherwise. Debtor had no service or due process on Notice of Claim according to court documents my name appears nowhere, and Use Mail for Fraud scheme was used again. Arntt never answered the claim as the "Intent to Abandon for Legal Malpractice" indicates filed by Grassmueck on September 5, 2005 So Grassmueck knew Arntt committed malpractice and still continued his slaughter on my property This is 5 acts of fraud on this one piece of property! Not counting Grassmueck! Legal Malpractice! (7) Grassmueck held 2 additional Creditors Meetings on November 5, 2003 and December 5, 2003 where I was not notified so I couldn't attend. "The trustee may not unilaterally waive the debtor's appearance," the Chapter 7 Handbook says. My fired attorney Arntt was present November 5, 2003 at which time no mention was made of the 11 inferences made by Grassmueck on October 17, 2003 that my schedules were "incorrect. "'On December 5 Arntt, my fired attorney, hired another attorney Tim Cardwell to attend the "confirmation hearing." Both without my knowledge and no notice to me! Cardwell said it was the. first time he ever attended a creditor meeting without the debtor present! Fraudulent Concealment! (8)The bankruptcy law says "a trustee" can use assets to pay creditors in a Chapter 7 Grassmueck paid out $228.17 according to his final report submitted on February 10, 2006 and` stole more than $500,000 00 of equity which wentio himself, his the defendant's attorneys, and his cronies at Farleigh, Wada Witt at Judge Trish Brown's old law firm. On December 15, 2004 he started a new corporation "The Grassmueck Group" and listed Farleigh, Wada Witt as registrants and owners. He also extorted funds of $5,000.00 after trying for $10,000 00 and charged $5,000 00 to extort them and has secreted them to this day in case I decide to sue them for their organized crime. All willfully done by Judge Trish Brown. Extortion! (9) On December 15, 2003 he embezzled my Broadway House after saying it had no value for the estate and then placed it in the Claims register at $241,000. It sold for $399,000 through Farleigh, Wada Witt, Judge Brown's old law firm and made another Grassmueck crony Jay Heinrich, represented by Valerie Tomasi OSB 84158 the judge's old law partner, a cool $160,000. in a.few short months! Yup, Grassmueck is right, No equity there! FOR ME THAT IS! Embezzlement! (10) The average time for a Chapter 7 is 3 to 4 months according to his own words in an article in the Willamette Week dated May 24, 2003 and he says "The vast majority of all Chapter 7 cases are "no asset" cases, meaning that the trustee uncovers no assets above the legal limit. This makes sense: Most people filing bankruptcy have long since sold, spent, or hocked every thing of value. Nationally, fewer than 4 percent of all chapters 7's yield any assets. according to the U.S.Trustees Program." His own words tell me he was knowingly, willfully, wantonly committing fraud in a Bankruptcy Swindle on my property! It was against bankruptcy law to put me in a Chapter 7! If a debtor can pay their bills, $1996.24, he cannot file for a discharge of debt. (11) His attorney David Mills OSB #97728 is a bankruptcy lawyer and he knew better too! He charged $1000.00 to research my address. and admitted he had never Looked at my petition. He participated in this fraud knowingly, willfully and wantonly He was consulted m 1986 on the problem of my ill health and was willing to represent me and therefore had Knowledge of my chronic health issues and yet assisted in the illegal seizure of the only relief I found from.my symptoms, my Health Spa. It was owned free and clear, filled with antiques and collectables, owned and used for 10 years. All of my personal possessions were given away and the money used by them to charge me fees, for their fraud. Also when I asked Ilene Lashinsky U.S.Trustee to do an investigation in August 2005, niy- inquiry was answered by David Mills in a letter, sent and signed by Lashinsky, and the two of them charged $3,740.00 for the letter So the investigated did the investigation! Good going Department of Justice, Only in America,,Fraud on Fraud! (12) Judge Trish Brown used telephone conferences every time David' Mills was needed at a hearing. Now I believe this was done so I would not. recognize David Mills from my past acquaintance with him thereby avoiding charges of Conflict of Interest. Judge Trish Brown also had Prior-Knowledge of my illness as her first fob out of law school was at the law firm Lane, Powell, Spears and Lubersky that represented Sears Roebuck. That chain store carried and installed "Energy Guard Insulation" the insulation product that poisoned me in 1979 Her participation was filled,with concealment, deceit, dereliction of duty,_ dishonesty, lies, secrecy, threats and obstruction of justice when she willfully allowed blatant crimes offraud, forgery, perjury, fraudulent.misrepresentation, etc to overtake the checks and balances placed in the rules and procedures of the bankruptcy law to allow for justice in every case! Crimes used for Obstruction of Justice! (13) Steve Arntt OSB 97201 forged my signature on documents that fraudulently misrepresented the mortgage liabilities of 2 properties on October 9 10, .2003 without my knowledge until 2004 My house at 3325 N.E.Wasco,.Portland, Oregon.97232 was listed by Arntt as $379, 964.58 when the actual claim was $191,811.58 mortgage balance including charges. That is a difference of $188,153 00 not owed, fraudulently entered to affect the outcome of my reorganization, Grassmueck deliberately ignoring my filed petition and Iater my sworn testimony at the 341 Meeting. I did not receive any notice from the court or Arntt on these filings, No Due Process! (14) My duplex at 1630 N.E.50` and 5008 N.E.Broadway, Portland, Oregon 97232 owned for 40 years and my family home, Arntt fraudulently misre_ pre- sented at $456, 694 18 when the actual amount owed and entered on the Claim Register by Grassmueck is $241,750.79 mortgage balance including charges. That is a difference of $214, 750.79 not owed, fraudulently entered by Arntt t� affect the outcome of my reorganization, Grassmueck again deliberately ignoring my filed petition and later my sworn testimony at the 341 Meeting. Grassmueck was fully aware of the fraudulently stated habilities by the mere fact he entered it in the Chums Register and didn't notify the mortgage company while keeping it for himself. Embezzlement! (15) Arntt's overstated liabilities in these 2 properties are $402;903 79 Grassmueck says in his Willamette Week article, "I am a business man; I'm in this to make a living." Well as a businessman he should be held account- able for crimes, incompetence, lack of business skills and violation of his fiduciary duty as a trustee.

Then they proceed to charge enormous "fees" so they can run up the costs of litigation and take their property when their clients can not pay In the case of Miriam Krause, her attorney Steve Annt OSB 97201 just used crime against her to rob her of 5 pieces of property with equity of over $800,000. and un- secured debts of $1996.24 From Sept. 11, till Oct 21, 2003 he had committed Forgery, Fraud, Misrepresentation, Legal Malpractice and "Falsified the financial affairs of the debtor" a Federal Crime under the Bankruptcy Protection Act. Michael Grassmueck "trustee" after 3 years paid $228.17 of unsecured debt, embezzled her home of 40 years and made $160,000. for his and Judge Trish Browns cronies, "Sold" her F&C Health Care Facility for a fraction of what it was worth and used the money to pay the attorneys who represented the crooks who stole it from her. Prior Knowledge of her illness was apparent to Grassmueck's attorney David Mills OSB 97728 when he offered to represent her in 1986 in a lawsuit filed for her illness and skin condition caused by a toxic insulation product called "Energy Guard" Every victim has a horror story of crime, manipulation and loss of assets. These attorneys have no problem committing or covering up their crimes and no one will investigate, arrest punish them. It is MAG, the Mafia, AlQaida and Gestapo in oneorganization.

Against Washington State Law, Judge John Wulle has ordered the Muresan's to stay of of fir own property and has issued a Permanent Injunction to that effect. This case is now on appeal. The first brief was not answered by the Respondents. attorney Grant Clark Broer and the court would not accept an Appellants Supplemental Brief and so the Muresan's have filed an Amended Brief and at this writing are waiting for an answer.

This is a very inform- ative, life altering, how-to bunko I am proud to say I have an autographed copy from Will Gaston as Pamela is no longer with us physically but her spirit is strong upon the pages. This is a common sense approach to the legal underpinnings of the judicial branch of our government that should be studied by every citizen, because ignorance is not bliss, not for one moment.

This corruption, sad to say, is going on nationwide but Oregon is the only state where the attorneys insure each other and therefore ifa lawyer sues another attorney and wins, your attorney gets to pay from their pocket.

It is hard to phantom learning to catch thieves that have practiced for so long, who know the law and willingly choose to break it.

This "shack" needed a lot of work to even be rented, so Mr Sutton spent another $1.00,000.00 to fix it! He obtained the money by borrowing. on 2 income producing houses he owned for" years. Then Mr Steve Conner, who was the furnace man Whom Sutton hired to install a new furnace, offered to negotiate a mortgage with lower interest for Suttons other 2 properties if he was the title holder. So after a $2.00 investment Mr Conner owned Mr- Suttons 2 houses. A scaanmer in the mortgage industry is a person who persuades an unspecting homeowner to sign over the title to his property and then eventually Mr Sutton was deprived of all of his property The little fact that was left out is Mr Sutton has endured a brain injury since his early 20's and is incapable of making informed decisions.

I do hereby ask anyone in charge with authority, Please, to act on my request and investigate the complaint I am hereby submitting concerning the fraud. This fraud perpetrated on me resulted in illegal seizure of my assets from 43 years of work. The Portland, Oregon Bankruptcy Court has robbed me by illegal seizure of my health aid, 5 beautiful well maintained properties, my retirement investments that would provide for me in these senior years. I am now 67 and have been fighting this fraud' since May 27, 2004.1 was targeted become of my age and my illness. This is probably the most egregious ahus of the Bankruptcy Law, according to the Rules and.Pr+ocedtmes and the Trustees Manuals for Prevention of Fraud and Abuse, Chapter 7 and Chapter 11 as well as Bankruptcy Local Rules The Bankruptcy court of Portland, Oregon has defrauded me of $1,465,650.00 of real property, 4 houses used for low income housing and a free and clear Health Spa used to aid my body to withstand the effects' of poisoning froman insulation Product, which I have just learned was defended by the law firm of Trish Brown before she became a judge. She has a definite conflict of interest in my case and and should have reedited herself from clay 1 Equity of $465,000 was stolen when the oourt illegally, fraudulently gave away my property Literally gave it away My soap company called Mother's Soap was destroyed when my equipment was given away with the property My housing business was destroyed when I was illegally evicted from my houses along with furnishings and equipment. My health care, The Spa, Body,. Mind and Spirit was sold topay $1996.27 of unsecured debt which was never paid except for the bill paid of an attorney when i could not find the receipt for the fee of $228.17, I have since found it. So basically they stole all of my belongings and property! I was robbed! See Final Report exhibit Y page 19 There was also $45,000. collected from me to commit their:Fraud on me. Thisis a racket. Everyone benefited from my 43 years of labor but me. The Realtors from Coldwell Banker and Windermere Realty were told of a problem before sale, and the fraud as it bec acne known, as documents were illegally withheld from the court file on my Health Spa valued at $300,000 owned free andclear and my Broadway house I owned for 40 years with equity of $115,000, sale pending of $340,000.00. The buyer,Jay Hinrich whose attorney Valerie Tomasi (Aurbaugh). is an ex- partner of the Judge, made $160,000. in 3 months on my embezzled :Broadway house, the house with" no equity" according to Grassniueck on Nov 18; 2003. Grassrnueck abandoned it to me and then[ embezzled it back into the claim register. Nothing showing in the file. Tomasi represented him, the ex partner of Judge Trish Brown, my banktuptty judge. My Broadway House sold for $400,000 to Emily Dana. A pretty handsome profit for Jay Hinrich, Silverado Group, Lake Oswego, Oregon. Judge Brown also had prior knowledge of my illness, did not divulge it and still has not divulged it as stated earlier, and deliberately thwarted my health care in a very savage way by selling my Health Spa, the very afternoon I begged her to look into what was going on, as my case was a reorganization. Still her allegiance to trustee Grassmueck got the better of her. She was engaged in a cover -up! This Spa has been listed for $290,000 by Kurt Jafay, Port Angeles, Washington. A profit of almost $200,000. over the $105,000 he stole it from me for He was told of this fraud as soon as the secreted documents surfaced through my investigation. The Realtors Coldwell Banker Uptown Realty and Windermere Realty of Port Angeles were notified before the sale closed on June 1/ 2004 that there was a big problem. They didn't care that this property was stolen and could not have clear title. They aided and abetted the fraud. Jafay got all-personal property, antiques, collectibles, furniture, equipment and even stripped out the built-ins and carpets. He plundered it. The US Trustee Program was put into effect to stop the cronyism between judges and trustees. This was a program to instill fairness and prevent abuse of the creditors and debtors, prevent abuse of the Bankruptcy Law This Portland Court has taken a solvent debtor, one who can pay her bills, and against the law has stolen her assets and converted every thing to their own personal gain and that of their friends. The illegal seizure and damage done to the business's and unjust enrichment for the friends of the court is now closer to one million dollars of equity $290,000 listing now for a building Grassmueck gave away for $105,000, with assesed value of $160,000. This is a profit of $185,000 with no repairs done. Even the lawn has been neglected and unmowed.That is no money for my priceless items, antiques and personal possessions,floss of health care, loss of pleasure from helping myself and many others with their health problems, my business's gone. This is an OUTRAGE! This trustee should loose his position IMMEDIATELY! This was meant to be Chapter 11 reorganization, instead my assets were illegally liquidated under an illegal Chapter 7 I was targeted. by the officers of this court because of my equity and my illness was a sure fire way to liquidate me as well. Oh what a tangled web we weave, when at first we attempt to deceive! Written by Shakespeare who also said Kill all the attorneys" I have exhausted all avenues to expose the corruption of the Portland office of the bankruptcy court. I will not. go away! I am the victim of crime from people who have sworn to uphold the law of the land. We are either a nation of laws or we are not It is unfair for the citizens to abide by the laws and have the law enforcement officials commit crimes against them. The rules and law are clear! These criminals under the bank uptcyiaw are fined and serve jail terms, Title 18 #152, 153, 154, 155, 156, 157, 3057, 3284 These crooks are sure no one will expose them, that they are above the laws. Well if they steal from me and are this dishonest, you really think they pay taxes on the spoils I hope this is sufficient to get you started. I spent 18 months just pouring. over The Portable Bankruptcy Code and Rules and the Trustees Handbook on Chapter. 7 and Chapter 11, as well as the .Manuel for the Prevention of Fraud and Abuse to learn how badly I was seamed. All this with headaches, lethargy, memory retention problems, etc. I feel lice a holocaust victim. Oregon's Terri Schiavo. I will be available to explain as much as I am able to understand. Maybe your training can enlighten this hideous nightmare! I spoke.with a Fraud Examiner who was willing to evaluate and testify in this case, but he wanted me to save my money until I pursue litigation. However it is your job to investigate and pursue financial crime. Are you afraid of them too? This blatant abuse of power and corruption is under "color of law"and must be stopped ,.IOW!

You have the power! I realize the documents are humungeous. Never does a crook keep it simple. I was not able to get a lawyer to advise me after the 5 lawyers involved committed their fraud.

No decent lawyer will buck the corrupt Oregon State Bar A friend wrote a letter advising the trustee Pam Griffiths of this fraud on July 8, 2004 He had been an attorney but gave up his license because of Oregon corruption. He has been fighting them ever since, 18 years now He was a prosecutor in the Portland consumer fraud division. The State Bar just sued him, case 061212468, for writing his letter regarding me to the US Trustee. Seethe time line, exhibit A and Z for more documentation The trustee Michael Grassmueck, U.S.Trustees Pam Griffiths and Ilene Lashinsky are as thick as thieves and the crime. coordinator, Celeste Ivfiller,.wouldn't tell me if the Department of Justice were investigating or not.. Lashinsky was asked by me to investigate in August, 2005 and charged me $3740:00 to help ate and hide the embezzlement and fraud. The cover -up assisted by David Mills, attorney for Michael Grassmueck, was milked by him for $15,000. The administration fees to dispense $228.17 was $45,000. And another 55,000. granted by Judge Brown in case I sued them for their fraud. Judge Brown gave him an Injunction that says I have filed lots of frivolous lawsuits and so I have no right to sue for this fraud. These people have no shame! And.no morals either. Just plain EVIL. This from a Judge who holds secret hearings and secrets documents. And argues with me in court saying I don't know my own address, and has me followed around the court house by Federal Marshals, and won't do her job to find the person who changed my address, and won't get the supporting documents required by law for the value of my property, and returns mail I addressed to the Chief Judge Perris who has the only opinion on Health Aid exemptions all favorable to me, who holds the duty and right to oversee her work, Its her job, and would have exposed this fraud! The bankruptcy court clerks who were hired to assist the public, were and are doing the bidding of the crooks, such as returning documents, not filing them, tampering with the record and refusing to put the first 18 entries of my case on the Pacer system. This makes them inaccessible to the public. Other cases are accessable DISCRIMINATION. These are the documents where the fraud, forgery and fraud- ulent misrepresentation were started They also lied and said That there was no Claim Register in Oregon there -by hiding the embezzlement of my Broadway house for over a year. Documents mailed to the Chief Judge Elizabeth Perris were subverted and never given to her. These clerics should be FIRED! They aided and abetted this Fraud, Knowingly and Willingly Obstructed Justice, AND ARE STILL DOING IT The Documents Speak For Themselves! illegal seizures are prohibited under Constitutional Law I have the right to feel secure in my home and business. I have the right to health care especially if 1 pay for it. Which I did. Violence against women, either financial rape or abuse by the police is one and the same. Judge Brown has a degree in economics. She knew better She deliberately robbed me and hoped I would die before they were caught. This is a very important issue! Not only the proper administration of the laws of Bankruptcy but the American Disability Act and the issue of crime against the elderly all come into play here. This Agency should send a strong message that it will not be tolerated in any form.. BY ANYONE. Time is of the essence. Each day is filled with suffering that my stolen Health Spa would relieve. My immune system, I fear, will give up on me before justice is done and people'exposed. This should. never happen again.

They are in this. Fraud cover -up and abuse of the Bankruptcy Law, Rules and Procedures up to their elbows. The United States Trustee Manuel Bankruptcy Fraud Abuse Enforcement Program shows trustees how to be aware offraud and prevent it. These Trustees had their own blueprints to Bankruptcy Swindle. I didn't get a Chapter 7! I didn't get.a Chapter 11! I got a Chapter S Bankruptcy Swindle. I finally got a copy from Rod Cockburn, accountant for Grassmueck, Moss Adams LLP,.221 Stewart Avenue, #301,. Medford,.Oregon 97501 of Individual Estate Property Record and Report Asset. Cases. This states that all "values based on amended schedules" C,rassmueck never held -a debtor exam. Use Mail for Fraud was used to divert my mail .from September L7, 2003 six days after I filed. it states "Debtor did not show up to meeting-no worksheet completed" on 12/05/2003. However my fired attorney, Steve Arntt:OSB 97201 fired on r 21, 2003 sent an attorney friend of his to the meeting and told him it was a confirmation. hearing. Until I got copies of the 341 meeting transcripts in fall of 2005, I never knew that a meeting was held on .12/05/20031 Grassmueck was meeting with my fired attorney when he knew he was. fired. Judge Trish Brown kept him on as attorney Of record-for 9 months, during which time they hatched a Swindle. They are all to blame! Pretty confident the law doesn't apply to them I suppose. Needless to say, There is no shortage of abuse of civil and constitutional rights. The exhibit GRASSMUECK REVENGE will explain his false 911 call, defaming my character and threating my life, yet polite would not let me file a.complaint On Nov 15 2004 one year after hiding my Broadway.House from the file the trustee Started "The Grassmueck Group" an investment corporation, .a conflict of interest? This was just discovered at the Oregon.Corporate Division. This person also was responsible'for the use mail for fraud started6 days after I :filed on September 11, 2003. He changed my zip code 97232 to his Zip code 97208 making my address invalid. This was discovered by me on July15, 2005. This caused no delivery of court documents to me. No Due Process No Notices. No Correspondence to me This entire episode has been .a scam. It is so outrageous that no one would believe me Until I showed them the documents. These people have put all the stress on me they can muster as they know the stress, in my state ofhealth, affects my cognitive ability and the prospects of fighting them to overturn this FRAUD. The defamation of my character has been used by them to stop people from helping me and used cover up their criminal activity Stealing my assets is bad enough, they now want to destroy my name. That will not be tolerated for without your good name, You•have nothing! Retaliation is the only'game they know! You can see 1 have tried to get the proper authorities to do their jobs. Oregon Senators Gordon Smith (see letter) Exhibit Z and Earl Blumenauer, whose office refused to set an appointment for me on my trip to Washington D.C. in September 2006. Receptionist Stephanie tried-for 2 days, Sept 12 13, to get someone to see me, However the lady she was wanting to see me was out sick on the 12 and and behold on the 13 too. Stephanie said that was unusual for her to take 2 sick days in a row I finally went to their Capitol office caught someone in charge of health care and she said they would have the local office call. I asked for his naive, Eric Chambers. He never called. So much for the government of, for and by the people! Ron Wyden whose office staff is nasty to me on the phone and wouldn't help me, Portland police involved in the harassment and failing to investigate the forgery by saying they were not going to. investigate a PAPER CRIME. (see letters) They sent the paperwork to the Department of Aging, Disability and Mental Health of Multnomah County Are they a police agency? NO! But I did housing for them. Police were trying to ruin my.business according to the Grassmueck Revenge plan. I had other incidents also, questions asked by the police to prove their harassment was being used for the benefit of the crooks and tryingto shut me up. The judge, trustees and attorneys are required by code, ethics and law to report a fraud, but,that would stop the bankruptcy and stealing of my property However if they ignore the forgery, the fraud will continue and did. So I am appealing for your help to do the proper thing. Enforce the law You will find a great deal of corruption in this Oregon Bankruptcy Court. I want justice.

Thelma Durham Windermere Real Estate 711 East Front Street Port Angeles, Washington 98362 1 -360 -457 -0456 Thelma, Your company ad in the current issue of "Who's Who 2006" states "It's the people of Windermere on the Olympic Peninsula that are our most important asset. Since our beginnings over 30 years ago, Windermere has had a vision for the best in service to our friends and neighbors, integrity in our business and commitment to the community we serve. By keeping the philosophy foremost in our activities," etc, etc, etc. I looked up the word mtegnty in Funk and Wagnall's Collegiate Dictionary. (1) Upnghtness of character; probity; honesty (2), The condition or quality of being unimpaired or sound. Probity means, Virtue or integrity tested and confirmed, strict honesty" When I arrived in Port Angeles on May 27, 2004, I went to the tax assessor's office to pay property taxes of $2791 42 on my property at 511 East First Street. When I arrived at my Spa at 511, I found a bankruptcy liquidation sign,and a sign of Coldwell Bankers Uptown Realty advertising my Spa for sale. As I was m a reorganization called. a Chapter 11 and no assets of mine were to be sold, I was upset. I drove to Coldwell Bankers office at 330 East First Street and notified them that something was wrong. I had my Spa paid for and owned it free and clear The only debt I. was paying on was an electric bill. Everythmg in my Spa was paid for, my antiques and equipment and the thousands of dollars I spent to refurbish the interior over 10 years. Not even counting the labor involved m doing this for myself and others. This was a labor of love not for profit, as there certainly was none. Plus I drove 500 miles a week to use this facility Yours was the company that sold me this on November 1, 1993 for $150,000 in a state of filth and disrepair The one and only reason I bought it was for my illness to improve from the steam baths. This was known to your company and everyone else that knew me. I told Coldwell Banker of the assets of $1,400,000 00 and the mortgages of $947,000 giving me equity of $465,000 m real estate. I owed $1996.27 in 4 bills m consumer debt. I had no credit cards, store accounts, medical bills, etc. None of the reasons one would sell the property I told them to leave my Spa atone and not touch my belongings as I needed my steam baths desperately I called you since you brought me an offer on my Spa in June of 2003 from the Lindsey's for a sale price of $190,000 with no contents included in the sale. I was not able to part with the Spa because I could not replace it for the money offered and so I declined the offer I left you a research article to give to the Lindsey's to explain my decision because of my illness. I then decided to sell a house in Portland witht$115,000 equity I could have also gotten a second mortgage if I needed too I spoke on the phone with you for an entire week and asked you to see if you could find out anything for me. There was nothing entered in the file in Portland and Michael Grassmueck, the trustee (I.use the word loosely) secreted the information from the file against the bankruptcy law, rules and procedures, aided and abetted by Judge Tnsh Brown. 1 called you 3times a day hoping you could find the name of the prospective buyer and I could talk toihim and inform him of the situation. The truth I now know is YOU sold the Spa to Kurt Jafay, 2586 Murry Ridge Road, San Diego, California 92123 on March 10, 2004 The Money Receipt states $1000, Crossed -out, then $2500. Which looks like no money was received. "At or before closing the balance of down payment of $132,000 At closing and upon delivery of deed $132,000 The Listing with Coldwell Banker states no offer will be considered without thepayment of $2500' Earnest Money The file accounting doesn't show an entry of $2500 for Kurt Jafay's so called Earnest Money This was to be entered, n� less than one day after acceptance; mto the estate accounting. Kurt Jafay was never entered. You have an illegal sale and you know it. Fraudulent Accountmg, Secreted Hearings, Secreted Documents all against the Bankruptcy Law Kurt Jafay has plundered the entire contents my Spa. He has even extracted the built -ins that my handyman workedsolard to provide me. He has done not one improvement and is stripping it to the point where I will never recover its use for my health care. This community that you say you are committed to have lost a priceless historical element of Port Angeles and has gained a reputation as Port Vulture; not Port of Angeles. The citizens of the city and surrounding area shall know of your part in this. You must be really proud to know your retaliation towards me has destroyed my health care which is called malicious injury in a court of law MALICIOUS INJURY An injury committed agamst a person at the prompting of malice or hatred towards him, or done spitefully or wantonly The willful doing of an act with knowledge it is liable to injure another and regardless of consequences. Injury involving element of FRAUD, VIOLENCE, WANTONNESS and WILLFULNESS or CRIMINALITY An injury that is INTENTIONAL, WRONGFUL and WITHOUT JUST CAUSE OR EXCUSE, even in the absence of hatred, spite or ill will. Punitive damages may be awarded to plaintiff for such injury! You, Thelma are TWO FACED (1) Having two faces (2) Double Dealmg. I hope your lousy commission was worth it to you for all the harm you have done to me. Your ad doesn't begin to describe the help and assistance you give to a former client. Such as when their back is turned, and we can destroy their life through fraud and misinformation we will be there to assist the "Crooks, Liars and Thieves, Bankruptcy Gone a'Mueck" Miriam Krause 3439 N.E.Sandy 371 Portland, Oregon 97232 1-503-515-9587 FIFTH EDITION POIS011TING Toxicology o Symptoms e Treatments Borate, Sodium (Borax Boric Acid) Boric acid is a white crystalline powder used as an antiseptic (properties of which are insignificant, there is no evidence that the isotonicity of a saturated solution is su perior to a saline solution) pesticide for the control of roaches food presen ati- e and as a buffering and fiingistatic agent in talcum powder There is no question that indis- criminate use of boric acid over large areas of broken skin• or mucous membrane is dangerous 'However, the small amount present in baby pow ders is safe for normal use One report .reviewed 83 fatal and 89 nonfatal cases of boric acid poisoning which have been documented in the literature. That there are more. recognized and unrec ognized, there can be little doubt. While boric acid is relatively safe when properly used, its presence in hospitals always poses the threat of accidental substitution The risk, albeit slight, seems unnecessary when the value of the product is questionable at best and safer substitutes can be found The Subcommittee on Accidental Poisoning of the American Academy of Pediatrics recommended that hospitals exercise rigid con- trols over the use of boric acid and that it be eliminated from newborn nurseries and pediatric sections of all hospitals Such steps certainly should be undertaken as a Mini boric mum Numerous institutions have gone further and have ehmuiated bor acid en. tireh. This would certainly provide the ,greatest degree of safety without significantly affecting the quality of patient care `Perhaps it is not Mere rhetorical coincidence that the mator source of boron compound comes from Death Valley" Sodium borate is used as an antiseptic, cleaning agent and insecticide spray and dust Sodium perborate is used as a mouthwash and dentrifice The lethal dose of these agents which are alkaline, is estimated to be between 1-5 to 30 gm They are toxic to all and since the highest concentrations are reached during excretion, the kidneys are more seriously damaged than other organs such as liver and brain.

The patient admitted to self- administration of half a container of boric acid powder 3 days prior to admis- sion to 'scare her children. There was a prior psy- chiatric history of nervousness and depression for which she had been hospitalized on several occasions. At the time of admission the only medication the pa- tient was using was hydrochlorothiazide 50 mg daily for hypertension. On physical examination, the patient was alert and oriented to time, place, and person. Blood pressure was 105/55 mm Hg without orthostatic changes; respira- tions, 20 /min; pulse, .110 and regular; temperature, 37 8° C. She was grossly obese and weighed 109 kg.

There was generalized marked erythema creating a 'boiled lobster appearance. The palms and soles were mark,, edlv hyperemic, Hemorrhagic crusting was present in a perioral distribution extending to the mucocutaneous junction (Fig 2) The conjunctiva and oral mucous membranes were also hyperemic.

These gastrointestinal symptoms may be the only initial elements in the clinical picture. The skin lesions are typically the next symptoms topresent. They are usually but not always present. It appears that in the severely poisoned individual death can ac tually occur before-the onset of the skin manifes- tations. Most commonly one observes erythema, desquamation, and exfoliation The erythema may be very intense and is sometimes referred to as a `boildjobster appearance. The lesions may resemble those of scarlet fever or `Ritter s dis- ease Ut,i.; In the most severe cases cyanosis maybe present. Sites most commonly affected are the palms and soles buttocks and scrotum although no surface is immune. Mucous membranes often share in the general erythema, and desquamation from the eyelids has been noted.

Despite these measures, boric acid poi- soning carries a high mortality rate, as :high as 50% in children less than 1 year of age Boric acid has for years been a popular prepara- tion for its alleged antiseptic activity A survey conducted in the mid 1950s indicated that 94% of certified dermatologists used boric acid in their practice yet there have never been conclusive studies to support the antiseptic role Early reports of in vitro testing indicate that boric acid has some. activity against staphylococci and streptococci but the action is primarily bacteriostatic and slow acting at that One study demonstrated that boric acid is actually more toxit. for human polymorphonucicar leukocytes than for various strains of Staphvhocoe c tus thereby negating pri- mary defense mechanisms of the body against bac teria.L Boric acid has also been shown to slow epithelialization of wounds and to retard the heal- ing of burns Some manufacturers incorporate boric acid into their products as a preservative It appears that the efficacy here is more a matter of tradition than of scientific fact. In studying its pre- servative properties on.urine specimens, boric acid was shown to be no more effective than hypertonic sodium chloride 22 Pinto et al showed that acute ingestion of boric acid in adults and children is associated with ex Joni Ilal tit 110.

Defendants Jane Doe 2 and John Doe 2 were the purchasers of Plaintiffs Port Angeles property. FACTS 11 In 1993 Plaintiff purchased the property located in Port Angeles, Washington "a health spa" to deal with personal health paoblems. 12. In February 2003 Plaintiff; who operated 3 transitional housing properties, lost tenants because County finding was it because of the failure of Measure 28. To meet financial demands Plaintiff decided to sell her family home located at 500E NE Broadway. The City of Portland blocked the sale of the property that was to have closed on August 31, 2003. 13. Because abet. inability to sell her property and meet her financial obligations Plaintiff was forced to seek the pro tectiah of the Bay 1u uptcy cant. At the time Plaintiff filed bankruptcy she owned real property worth L489 million dollars with mortgages totaling 926 thousand dollars. Not included in this dollar amount was substantial personal property. At the time of filing Plaintiff had unused debt of approximately 10 thousand dollars. 14 Plaintiff on September 11, 2003 met Defendant Arntt, who was represented to her by a neighbor to be a bankruptcy attorney Plaintiff who had no prior knowledge of bankruptcy law, explained to Arntt why she was unable to meet her mortgage payments and gave Armtt a $1,500.00 retainer believing Aran would take whatever steps necessary to protect her best interest. Miler September 11, 2003 meeting, the only face to face meeting she had with Arno, she told him that because her health problem it was martial that she keep possession n of her Port Angeles spa which she owned free and clear Arntt advised Plaintiff that she would be allowed to keep the spa because it was a health aid. Plaintiff told Arntt at their meeting if the bankruptcy would jeopardize her spa she did not want to do the bankruptcy 15. Plaintiff, after leaving Arntts office, purchased two books on larnkniptcy After reading the books Plaintiff realized that she should be in a Chapter 11 reorganization and not a Chapter 7 liquidation. After meeting with Arntt and reading the bankruptcy books Plaintiff tried, without suooess, for the next two weeks, by phoning Arntt's office 2 and 3 times a day, to contact him personally to make sure he was filing for her a Chapter 11 and not a Chapter 7 At the same time Plaintiff started rebuilding her housing buhsiness in furtherance of her business recovery plan. 16. Plaintiff on October 17, 2003 was required to appear at a 341 meeting with Defendant Grassmueck in the courthouse. Plaintiff was stunned when Grassmueck took her repair permits and told her in a stern and threatening tone, "you don't need these anymore, from now on 1 will be taking care of this" Plaintiff was stunned by Grassmueck's behavior because she knew under a chapter 11 reorganization she was allowed to repair and maintain her property. At the saline mew Plaintiff stated she intended to file a lawsuit against Dorothy Washington because she had filed a fraudulent judgment against Plaintiff which in post had caused Plaintiff to seek bankruptcy protection. While Plaintiff ways speakhtg Defendant Arntt, in a scolding tone, slahhsd Plaintiff to keep her from speaking. Defiant Orassmueck in a stern and loud voice said to Plaintiff "your not filing any lawsuit!" At the time Plaintiff left Caassrn 's office she was confused and distraught by the actions and demeanor of Grassmueck. Outside the courtroom Amts said he forgot his briefcase and went baek to come to pie* it up. When he returned he said 1 have had a chance to ta&c to the trustee and he said we can do something different.

Grassmueck s Revenge I want to relate the most frightening experience of this entire bankruptcy nightmare up to this point. On Friday July 30 2004 I went to see an attorney at the Senior Hollywood Law Center Attorney David Malcolm volunteers his time there and I was fortunate to fill a cancellation slot and not have to wait for some free legal advice. The following Thursday. August 5 2004. about 10a.m.. David called to say he had an attorney who would talk to me if I could see him that morning. David stated that he had tried to reach me on Wednesday, but he couldn't reach me on the phone. We set an appointment for 12.30pm and I was given the address of 1437 SW Columbia and directions to get there. He said to meet him at an office that belonged to Fred Smith s daughter Jacki Smith at that location or if I wanted I could meet with them on Fred Smith's boat, and I said I will meet you at the office He also instructed me to bring all my documents and I said that will be easy I have two cases full of them. At 12 20pm I was driving over the Morrison Bridge and commented to my passenger Scott Kretz that I hope to be on time, and I wasn't sure, how to find the place. I let Scott out of my car at second and Morrison Street and then drove to Jefferson, I took a right turn and drove to the second street over the overpass and turned left. I was faced with three parking lots, all on a very steep slope and I picked the far easterly one. Not finding a parking space I double parked on the side of the lot, and knocked on the door of the 1437 building, no one answered so I walked back to the car to phone David, when out of the corner of my eye, I saw him approaching the building. I called David's name and he came to my car and offered to park it for me, and carry my two brief cases inside, which he did. Mr Fred Smith was on the phone as we entered and so he asked us to sit in the waiting area. After about maybe a minute two large policemen came through the door and were staring at me. They asked if I was Miriam Krause and I said I was. The asked if I had been knocking on any doors, and I said yes I had knocked on the door with Jacki Smith's name on it, as I could not find Mr Smith name on the building. The names by the address were not Fred Smith either; the reception indicated she heard me at Jacki Smith s door The policemen said he had a complaint that I was pounding on the door, and that I had threatened someone with a gun. "A gun, 1 don't have a gun, 1 don't own a gun, 1 wasn't pounding on anyone's door or threatening anyone." He asked to see my ID, and I gave it to him. Then I said I wanted to know who had stated such a deliberate lie, I have a right to know under the freedom of information act and he said maybe I'll tell you, and maybe I won t. He then asked me to step outside and talk to him. I said I had nothing to hide and he could talk to me right there. The police said do you want everyone here to know your business? And I said he could say anything he needed to say He then told me I had been pounding on the other building near the third parking lot and I had threatened some one there. I had been no where near the steps or the doors of that building and I told him so By this time a third policeman arrived. police cars and all. the receptionist even commented about all the police cars in the lot, I was frightened and embarrassed by the whole event. Here I was a stranger to the office and the occupants. What must they think of me? What sick person would tell such a deliberate fable as this I then got my answer The policemen said Grassmueck. Grassmueck? He's my Bankruptcy Trustee and what does he have to do with this? Grassmueck has an office in the building by the third parking lot, I was told and that I had come here to harm him. Less than three hours ago, I didn't even know this place existed and that Michael Grassmueck had an office any where other than at eh street and Main (which is the Hearing Room) and 1 001 SW 6 (Bankruptcy Filing Room) were he was served with the lawsuit papers I filed against him on June 7 2004 I am totally disgusted that someone in his position would resort to such a low life lie as he apparently did, Michael Grassmueck grow -up. As' I left the building, the advice I got from Fred Smith as he was driving away in his car from the parking lot, was not to have Roger Weidner write any more articles for me. So I assured Mr Smith that I would be writing for the Oregon Observer from now on myself, next time, The Fraud, and The Forgery Connection. It's now Monday at I lo'clock August 9 2004, I have just finished a meeting with Jeff Jones and Debbie Boyd, of the U.S Marshall's Service, they just greeted me with a statement that they were investigating a complaint on me threatening to buy a gun and kill Judge Brown and Grassmueck, and I said, "That sounds like what I went through Thursday U S. Marshall Debbie Boyd said, "Have you had this problem before and I said yes, last week, They said, they had received a complaint last week. She said she was not here regarding Thursday's incident. I told her I had tried to file harassment charges for Thursday's incident, last week and the police won't take it. In my call to the Portland Police Bureau Non Emergency number the police dispatcher advised me that it is a crime it report a false 911 complaint. So she scheduled a police car out to take a statement the next day, and the two policemen that arrived refused to even write anything down, much less file a complaint. This happened on two occasions; the first time two uniformed officers arrived, the second time a uniformed officer, accompanied with someone in plain clothes carrying a folder in his hand appearing very official. So with the assurance of my body guard, (I have not been without someone accompanying me since the encounter with the two policemen on Thursday the week before), lead them into my house, and Debbie sat at my kitchen table and I read them my notes from the incident a week earlier at Fred Smith's office. I had been so terrified, Thursday night and Friday morning that I committed my experience to paper, as I couldn't sleep anyway And so I could tell my story exactly as it happened. My deductions of what has happened is this; The complaint to the U.S Marshall's Service came on Wednesday, August 4 2004, Mr Fred Smith, had told me the next day Thursday in his office that he is best friends with Judge Trish Brown and Trustee Michael Grassmueck While coincidently, he tried to reach me and have me come in for an appointment on Wednesday, but was unable to reach me, so on Thursday, August 5 2004, he had David Malcolm call and arraign our meeting and the police just happened to get a call on Thursday about me supposedly banging on a door and threatening people with a gun. I feel he tried to have me killed by the U.S Marshall Service, and the Portland Police, (by setting me up) because they would think I was packing a gun. He was helping to Obstruct my opportunity to seek Justice in my ordeal with Judge Trish Brown, Trustee Michael Grassmueck, and my former Attorney Steve Arntt. He tried to have me either shot to death by law enforcement or jailed so that I could not narticinate or pursue my_pending lawsuit. Case #04- 200496 Filed on June 7 2004 in Clallam County, in Washington State. against those Obstructing Justice in my case. The only document Fred Smith asked to see was the filed lawsuit in Clallam County. There have been many incidents involving the Portland Police that are against all the normal procedures they do for every one else. Such as, Refusing to give me an Incident Report Number so I can report a Stolen Car so I can file a Missing Vehicle Report. Portland Police Officers removed tenants at 11.30 at night, without a court order or legal documentation to do so Against the wishes of the landlord (me), and my tenants who were placed in this housing by Multnomah County on a six month lease. This happened on multiple occasions. Portland Police also ticketed street legal vehicles with Trip Permits. Police refused to arrest a client who had assaulted other tenants and me; who proceeded to show up the next day and destroy multiple doors of the complex with a big axe. They assisted Meth addicts breaking and entering three properties by refusing to stop them. They also aided two people involved in a Robbery in Progress, by letting them leave with the newly stolen property Any fool can see, you don't liquidate, an approximately $1 4 million estate, for less than $2,000 of Unsecured Debt. Judge Trish Brown should have recused herself from my Bankruptcy Case 03 40303, because of a Conflict of Interest. as I requested, June 14 2004, seven days after I tiled a lawsuit and Filed a Quieting Title and Intentional Infliction of Emotional Duress. The notion that a federal Judge can continue to rule on a Bankruptcy Case affecting a claim regarding a case she has been accused of committing misconduct in. Instead Judge Trish Brown is Aiding and Abetting a forgery committed by my former Attorney Steve Arntt, who thought I would die from my illness. Also continuing a conspiracy involving fraud by According to Stephen Gillers, a law professor. at New York University, This is the first commandment of Judicial ethics. Judge Trish Brown, by refusing to convert this Bankruptcy from a Chapter 7 to a Chapter 11, as I requested as per a debtor's rights at any time during the Bankruptcy, she deliberately continued him as attorney of record over 7 months after my firing of him, six months after his filing to withdraw from the case. Judge Brown and Michael Grassmueck have secreted the buyer of the Health Spa by not filed Ernest Money Agreements /Deposits /Title Information Closing Statements, and any other things about the buyer of the Health Spa. However they have the information from the Weigels, deposits held and not returned until after the sale closed of the undisclosed buyer She had dismissed the case, because the debtor(me) had not completed the required 341 meeting, but then allowed Michael Grassmueck to liquidate some of her(my) property, including her(my) Health Spa and its contents, which was an allowable exemption under the Health Aid ruje. Thi:i .M a Health Spa prescribed by Medicallrofessionals. She refused to allow my media Record into this Bankruptcy Case. There are many additional violations of the Bankruptcy Code Rules, The Judicial Conduct Rules regarding Judges, and The Rules for Professional Conduct entered in Court Docket listing 105, July 19 2005 entered into the Bankruptcy Court.

Steven Arntt without my knowledge or consent added two non-existent mortgages to show mortgage balances of $1,366,791 76, approximately $420,000.00 over the actual mortgage balances on my properties. On the. Attached Schedule F (attached as Exhibit D) Arntt also stated a $456.00 debt to be $4,562.48. By creating and inflating the mortgage balances Grassmueck was able to claim I only had $22,500.00 in equity in the properties and thereby justifying the distress sale of my Port Angeles property, on which I had an offer, less than a year ago, of $190,000.00 without contents for $130,000.00 with contents worth $100,000.00. Thelnma Durham, of Windermere Realty, who listed the property, without contents, for $225,000.00 a year ago was the selling agent who .sold the property at the distress price. Thelma Durham has been working for me on another project since May 28, 2004 and did not inform that she had sold my spa March 15, 2004 at the distress price. It is obvious after reviewing the attached documents that I have been swindled and defrauded by those named in the complaint attached hereto as Exhibit E. Accordingly I am demanding that the sale of niy Port Angeles property be set aside and the bankruptcy proceed as a Chapter 11 reorganization, the type of bankruptcy proceeding I believed that I was actual involved in.

I was astonished that you had excluded all of the fraud, forgery and perjury committed by your client from September 11, 2003 until he was fired on October 21, 2003 But had instead only submitted documentation to the court starting with exhibit 41 You didn't mention the date. of 41 was March 31,2004 and also was a certificate of service to your client long after he wasrfired. I was inquiring why you would make the assumptions you did concerning his actions with the fraudulent misrepresentations and bankruptcy crime he committed against me. in the 40 days he was hired in the very beginning of the case. I noticed you only used the pacer system, which proves the point that not getting the entire case on the system has been an injustice to me purported, by the court, by their refusal to put the beginning of the case in the system. However it does not excuse you from the aiding and abetting of the fraud committed on me by your client, as you are responsible for inputting the knowledge that was available to you.and need to choose your clients better The case in the interest of justice could have been heard in Washington. BUT JUSTICE WASN'T ON ANYONES AGENDA. The truth is coming out. The court also did Use Mail For Fraud by changing my zip code on September 17, 2003, so for 22 months I did not receive the mail. I discovered Judge Trish Brown left your client on the record so he could receive the mail. And was only removed some time after I filed the lawsuit in which you represented Arntt.on July 7, 2004 The electronic mail is invalid and illegal when the sender is notified it was not received. This fraud 1 discovered on July 15, 2005 and it renders all decisions null and void according to the doctrine of due process and proper notice. He also missed two claims for relief, which he was required to attend too as my attorney on September 24, 2003 This has recently been discovered and will be a cause for action. He went to a 341 meeting on November 5,2003 after he was fired and also hired another attorney to attend the 341 meeting on December 5,2003 Telling the attorney it was a reorganization hearing for a Chapter 11 While he was arranging through his fraudulent amended schedules and forgery a Bankruptcy Swindle of my assets. You will notice from the file I received no notice of the claim for relief documents or no notice for the fraudulent amended schedules and forgery Arntt perpetrated on me. The claims for relief were also fraudulently misrepresented as to the actual value by Linda Johannson. Arntt and Johannson both had the documents appraisals of near 1 year and the mortgage balances of the same duration and choose to ignored them and fraudulently misrepresent them constituting Bankruptcy Crime aided and abetted by Michael Grassmueck, I use the word loosely trustee" So basically $1,400,000 of real properties,(Assessed value, no property increases included of 16% shown in Portland area) $465,000 of equity, (Now closer to $750,000 because of recent sales of my stolen property) Three businesses, Port to Port Hostell, Mothers Soap Products and Spa, Body, Mind and Spirit Health Care owned free and clear so I would never be with out my steam baths and necessary since 1979 insulation poisoning to help my body rid itself of the toxins) and Personal property and business equipment that has all been stolen, lost or destroyed all for owing $1996,00 of consumer debt This was started by your client. NO ONE INVOLVED IN THIS SWINDLE IS WITHOUT BLAME. On March 10, 2066 I entered an Objection to the Final Report and Motion to Reverse the Fraudulent Sales of my property It took some doing to get it entered into the record. T had to submit it twice since the judge withheld it from the file.and kept it in her office for 3 weeks.according to the clerk. The court feels now that the mail fraud has been exposed they will need to find another way to obstruct justice. You could pull,up the exhibit P if it is there. If you can add 4 mortgages together you will see the fraud. and obvious forgery October 9 -10, 2003 Also exhibit Y is most interesting as well. The fraudulent schedules submitted by Arntt were used to calculate the final report instead of the original petition filed by me on September 11,2003 as required by Bankruptcy Law Also the I R S has no record of the tax forms filed in this case. If you will check with the State Bar you will find the basis for a defamation of character case against Arntt as.well. At least that is the opinion of attorneys consulted. Meanwhile I need to know if you are still Arntt's attorney and will be accepting service for him? His address is also appearing as my address on my credit report. How did he manage that?

Civ P 12(b)(1) for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. The Court has considered the pleadings filed in support of and in opposition to the motion, and the remainder of the file herein. BACKGROUND On September 11, 2003, plaintiff Miriam Krause filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy with the United States Bankruptcy Court in the District of Oregon. As part of the proceeding, plaintiffs real property located in Port Angeles was sold. Plaintiff objected to the sale and filed two motions in the Oregon bankruptcy court attempting to set aside the sale for fraud. Both motions were denied. As of the date 01 this order, the Oregon bankruptcy proceeding is still open. On June 7, 2004, plaintiff filed the current lawsuit in Clallam County, Washington. Plaintiff alleges claims for "Quieting Title" and "Intention Infliction of Emotional Duress" arising out of the sale the Port Angeles property The matter was removed to this court and defendant Arntt filed this motion t dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. 1 DISCUSSION 2 Pursuant to 28 U S C. §1334(e), "[t]he district court in which a case under title 11 is commenced 3 or is pending shall have exclusive jurisdiction of all the property, wherever located, of the debtor as of the 4 commencement of such case, and of property of the estate." Because plaintiff filed for bankruptcy with 5 the United States Bankruptcy Court in the District of Oregon and that case remains open, the district court 6 in Oregon has exclusive jurisdiction over any claims relating to the sale of plaintiff's property This court 7 does not have subject matter junsdiction and plaintiff's complaint should therefore be dismissed. 8 CONCLUSION 9 For all of the foregoing reasons, defendant's Motion to Dismiss (Dkt.#10) is GRANTED All 10 remaining motions (Dkt. #'s 10, 17, 21) are DENIED AS MOOT 11 12 DATED this 4ay of August, 2004 13 14 t 5 RONt1LD B LE HTON 4 United States District Judge 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 8 ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO DISMISS 2 2 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 that period. 17 It is requested that no motions be set during that period or within one week 18 thereafter 19 DATED this 4th day of August, 2004 20 Respectfully submitted, 21 JOHN McKAY 22 United States Attorney 23 24 25 26 27 28 3 4 s MIRIAM KRAUSE, 6 Plaintiff, 7 v 8 STEVE ARNTT, et al 9 Defendants NOTICE OF UNAVAILABITY OF AUSA ROBERT P BROUILLARD 2 (C04- 5383RBL) UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT WESTERN DISTRICT OF WASHINGTON AT TACOMA No C04- 5383RBL NOTICE OF UNAVAILABILITY OF ASSISTANT U ATTORNEY ROBERT P BROUILLARD .1.

Dear Kurt, On Friday, August 5 2005, I mailed you the fraud alert showing the court stamped documents of October 0, 2003, where the attorney fraudulently misrepresented the financial amounts. The income was underestimated by $150,000 in the financial affairs statement. The mortgages were inflated from $947,000 to $1,366,791 78 The signature was forged when the documents were submitted to the court. Showing liabilities of approx. $420,000 more than owed on mortgages. The unsecured debt on page 5 shows after making the changes what is correct $1996.24 this entire bankruptcy has been fraudulent and I might add against the bankruptcy code rules, as well as valid state laws. This entire process is being reviewed by trustees in the Seattle, Washington, and Washington D C. offices. Therefore I have made some calls to the title insurance companies to find out the recourse you and I have against the fraudulent transactions the bankruptcy court has perpetrated. The title company informs me, and this is general information that the seller didn't have the authority to convey the property because of the fraud and forgery Your interests are covered under the policy; they will defend the title policy to the maximum amount you paid for the real property under these circumstances. I cannot speak for them, but I am sending them a copy of this letter This is information that I took over the phone and should be totally accurate. The contents are basically stolen property they are not covered by the insurance and you and I need to work together to maintain the integrity of my personal belongings. The contents are used to assist me in fighting this chronic illness that I have been dealing with since 1979 and only had hope of feeling better while taking my steam baths and other services that I started at my Spa, there will also be an action filed for the physical damage this has done to my body, and only with time will I'know'If the damage can be reversed with my steam bathes and other services the spa provides me since 1993 I know you probably have some questions, and you know that I am willing to talk with you, work with you and that we have several options to repay you for your time and trouble and hopefully keep you out of the lawsuits,(if you wish) that I will be filing in order to protect my rights and gain back everything that has been stolen from me. I would appreciate you getting back with me as soon as possible so we can handle these outrageous actions that have brought you and me together If this had been perpetrated on you I would be the first person in your corner, as you recall as soon as I found out who you were because all documents concerning you have been secreted form the bankruptcy file, which is illegal; 'I called and talked with you on August 30 2004 Everyone involved that had anything to do with this is responsible for this gross injustice, and it is time we went by the facts and not the rumors. Every day that I am without my Spa, my health deteriorates, please let us not make this a wrongful death action. I have 207 pages of medical research concerning my condition in the bankruptcy file in Portland, Oregon. If you do not have access to this, I will also be willing to send you some of the literature. This is a very serious matter Make no doubt about it. 3439 N.E. Sandy Blvd. #371, Portland, Oregon, 97232 (503) 515 9587 McEwen Gisvold LLP Johnston A. Mitchell 1100 SW Sixth Ave #1600 Portland, Oregon 97204 Re Fraud, Forgery, Perjury by Steven Arntt OSB 97201 Mr Mitchell, I am sending a thumb -nail example from my book "Crooks, Liars Thieves, Bankruptcy Gone a'Mueck" to show you this little hobby horse was ridden into the bankruptcy court not knowing that the stable master Arntt) had fed it poisoned apples. So along the path upon discovenng it was sick, she asked the stable master to call the veterinary doctor to get it the medicine it needed. Instead of responding as he should he delayed, giving time for the poisoned apples to do their intended fob. Kill the horse and injure the rider! The full intent of Steve Arntt was to commandeer my property at Broadway to his friend Carl Michael Schreiner, who he was representing at the same time he was representing me with no ,disclosure or permission as required by your "Code of. Ethics." He did not talk-to me after the initial filing of my petition on September 11, 2003 and threw me out of his office in early October 2003 to have his assistant Joe Keenan help,me with the mailing matrix and filling out the four unsecured debts of $1996.28 Everything he filed after September 11, 2003 was not SEEN by me, .SIGNED by me or DISCUSSED with me. There is no Certificate of Service, no due process for his fraudulent entries or Linda Johannson taudulent claims either Now I am assuming you can add and subtract $19 from the claim of Johannson and the fraudulent amount entered by Arntt on Exhibit 11 of $379,964.58 The difference is $188,153 00 not owed, fraudulently entered to affect the outcome of my reorganization .Chapter 11 and charged by Arntt on his bill for services for preparing it! Now let's take the $241,943.39 on Grassmueck's Claims Register from the fraudulent amount .entered by Arntt on Exhibit 11 of $456,694 18. The difference is.$214,750 79 not owed, fraudulently entered to affect the outcome of my reorganization plan and ignored by Grassmueck and Judge Tnsh Brown.in order to complete this Bankruptcy Swindle. That makes a total from this Schedule A of fraudulent non existent claims of $402,903 79 filed by Steven E. Arntt and billed to me on October 6, 2003, Prepared amendments for client, .0 9 $180 00 (Pg 16) According to the United States Trustee Manuel, Bankruptcy Fraud Abuse Enforcement Program, False Claims 18 U S C 152 (4) A person who knowingly and fraudulently presents any false claim in any case under Title 11, in a personal capacity, or as or through an agent, proxy, or attorney (shall be fined not more than $250,000 00, or imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both.) Elements of the Offense (1) Bankruptcy proceedings have commenced under Title 11 (2) The defendant presents or causes to be presented a proof of claim in the bankruptcy (3) The proof of claim is false as to a material matter (4) The defendant knew the claim was false. Arntt forged my signature (Page 16 shows the signature) because the schedules he was filing were directly adverse to my filed petition of September 11, 2003 and he did not want me to catch on to his scheme The debtor was required to sign all financial documents so he forged my signature under penalty of perjury This was also directly against my sworn testimony at the October 17, 2003 Creditors Meeting. He also was the only person allowed to file documents in the court as my attorney of record. Sylvia Stevens of the State Bar says you can see that is not my signature! His name was left on the case as my attorney of record from October 21, 2003 until June 8, 2004 when Judge Tnsh Brown finally signed it. Dereliction of Duty! It took him one month, till November 17, 2003, to file a withdrawal and order after he was fired. According to the transcript after he was fired he attended a second 341 meeting on November 5, 2003, and hired another attorney Tim Cardwell t� attend a third 341 meeting on December 5, 2003 which I didn't know about. Until August 2005 when the transcripts were sent to me by the Department of Justice, and there was testimony from the last 2 meetings did I know they were even held. Service on a party represented by an attorney is made on the attorney unless the court orders service on the party Use Mail for Fraud came in handy for these crooks. Rule 9011 (b) Representations to the court: By presenting to the court (whether by signing, filing, submitting, or later advocating) a petition, pleading, written motion, or other paper, an attorney or unrepresented party is certifying that to the best of the person's knowledge, information, and belief, formed after an inquiry reasonable under the circumstances, (1) it is not being prepared for any improper purpose, such as to harass or to cause unnecessary delay or needless increase in the cost of litigation (2 the claims, defenses and other legal contentions therein are warranted by existing law or by a nonfrivolous argument for the extension, modification or reversal of existing law or the establishment of new law; (3) the allegations and other factual contentions have evidentiary support or, if specifically so identified, are likely to have evidentiary support after a reasonable opportunity for further investigation or discovery; (4) the denials of factual contentions are warranted on the evidence or, if specifically so identified, are reasonably based on a lack of information or belief. My question to you is when did you look at my petition filed on September 11, 2003? If you didn't look at it, how do you represent a client without seeing the file and paperwork to know if he is telling you the truth? Don't you think reasonableness would require you to at least look at my petition filed voluntanly and supposed to be changed to a Chapter 11 except the fix to rob me was already in by September 17, 2003 with the courts Use Mail for Fraud scheme? Your paperwork in his Motion to Dismiss started with the 40 entry The major fraud was done by the attorneys within 30 days of my filing and was apparent in the court record. Sure didn't do any investigation as required! As a bankruptcy attorney you were aware and already knew it was a scam and have proved your willingness to participate in this fraud! The first thing ever asked of me when I have seen a lawyer was `Bring me the paperwork, I need to see what has been filed" along with `Bring me some money" of course. As Bruce Rubin says "The Documents Speak for Themselves." Reasonableness tells one you don't destroy 3 businesses with 5 real estate properties with $500,000 00 of equity to pay $228.17 unsecured claim. (Page 20) The law says it's a crime to do a Chapter 7 when a debtor can pay their bills! That is why a Chapter 11 is for small business with lots of equity and very small debt which Arntt was told to change it too on September 14, 2003 Little did I know he didn't! Mr Mitchell, in the Motion you say on page 3 "Defendant Arntt is not sure where she obtained Exhibit 9 This proves you did not do any reasonable investigation. Exhibit 9 is from the court record and has the number circled in the lower right hand corner by the court clerk and stamped with the date Oct -9 -03 This means it was the 9 document filed in case #303 -40303 with my name printed in the upper left corner on October 9, 2003 Signed by Arntt! By then he was late with most of my paperwork and the, law says my case should have been dismissed many times over! The law says if schedules are late, not filled out properly, if debtor exam is not held, but even Judge Trish Brown acted as an attorney and prepared his extensions for him, not sending me a copy of course in their continuing scam of my assets! And last but not least, the court in Washington could have heard this case in the interest ofjustice.'But I did not learn the EXTENT of the massive fraud committed on me until I was able to start studying in June 2005 One entire year later! Now I know you are a willing participant! You aided and abetted Fraud! You don't know if the Rules and Procedures were followed in my case because you didn't even know where Exhibit 9 came from. You don't know if the Information Sheet that is required by law to be read into the record and signed at the 341 Meeting was ever used by Grassmueck. Well it wasn't! The debtor exam was never held! Do you do bankruptcy cases and neyer hold a debtors exam? You probably don't forge your client's signature either Do you hold 341 Meeting without the debtor present? Tim Cardwell said he never heard of such a thing. Twice it was done, one with a fired attorney and once' with a guy who didn't know me or my financial situation. You shouldn't make statements when you haven't investigated to find out the truth. Surely it's beneath you! First, you say my theories have no legal or factual basis. The facts are crimes were committed, unless forgery is legal, misrepresenting of liabilities is legal, unless fraudulent misrepresentation of the value of property is legal. The entire Bankruptcy Protection Act's intent and purpose was disregarded by the officers of the court to commit this fraud. The U S Trustee Manual Bankruptcy Fraud Abuse`Enforcement Program laws are listed to be observed to protect the creditors and debtors from fraud and abuse, not to benefit the trustees. They know they have broken the laws. That's why they are trying so hard to discredit me But facts are stubborn, aren't they! "Second, the Plaintiff says, this court has ,jurisdiction because the "acts' of the bankruptcy judge, bankruptcy trustees, bankruptcy attorney and others "were committed outside the bankruptcy proceedings." Where did you get that information Mr Mitchell? All of the cnmes were done under "Color of Law" within the bankruptcy court and under the mantle and direction of Judge Trish Brown, trustee Michael Grassmueck, US Trustees Pam Griffins, Ilene Lashmsky and now, I learned, Vivian Popperl name has popped up too Forgery is a crime against State law as well as Bankruptcy law, as I' read it! The Cnminai Code of Oregon, Forgery and Related Offenses, Offences involving Fraud or Deception are #1 002 to 165 102. Bankruptcy Law Rule 1334 Bankruptcy Cases and Proceedings "(b) The District courts shall have original but not exclusive jurisdiction of all civil proceedings ansmg under Title 11 (c) Nothing m'this section prevents a district court "in the interest of justice, or in the interestof comity (respect) with state courts or respect for state law, from abstaining from hearing a particular proceeding arising under Title 11 They were willfully committing fraud and willingly aiding and' abetting their own fraud with their' cover -up actions! Again, in "the Interest of Justice" had I known the extent of this fraud being committed by the Oregon 'Bankruptcy Court, this would have been heard in Washington. I had filed my lawsuit °on June 7, 2004 approximately`one week after I became aware of the sale of thy Spa; (This was' actually illegally sold in March 2004, twice. All documents were withheld from the bankruptcy court record against Rule i #6004 -1 until December 2006 {when only a closing statement was filed. I discovered the forgery on June 21, 2004 which was 13 days after I filed' the lawsuit to' stop the sale of my Health Aid. No mention was made of fraud' or forgery in the lawsuit either! On June 14, 2004 I filed an "Affidavit in Support:of Motion to Set Aside Sale of Bankruptcy Assets for Fraud" in bankruptcy court, detailing the difference in mortgage liabilities that were overstated by Arntt. Judge Trish: Brown in her order June 16, 2004 refers to -the June 2, hearing "for the reasons articulated by the court in its oral ruling entered on June 2" whereby these misrepresented liabilities we're not mentioned as they were still unknown to me. I 'call that Fraud, now' But I didn't know it was deliberately misrepresented then. No where do I mention the forgery as I had not yet discovered that. Of course the bankruptcy court denied my Motion because it would have exposed the trustee, the judge, the attorneys and the U S.Trustees all complacent (Smug- ness, self "satisfaction) in this fraud. I asked for a Conversion on May 31, 2004 but was refused, against the law, because a successor trustee would have taken over my case and Judge Trish Brown couldn't risk someone exposing her and'Grassmueck's fraud!' She should have recused herself from my case as I had filed the lawsuit against her! This is required of the trustee and fudge by law! It's clear now, after studying for 2 years. The Use Mail for fraud was discovered July 15, 2005 So you see I had to uncover this fraud without the help of an attorney to point out the crimes committed against me, and study the trustee manuals to understand the extent of the involvement of these crooks. Compounding crime is an interesting theory, also. Mr Mitchell you brought up defenses to a situation that wasn't even mentioned in the law suit. But if you are a bankruptcy lawyer, you wouldn't do anything. to spoil their fraud on me would you? Just in case they sue you for helping me like they did a concerned citizen who told them about the fraud. Twenty Six-crimes so far designed to rob me of my assets and health care! Forty three years of hard work gone, robbed and assets given away by a corrupt legal system.. of which you are now part. Doesn't your Code of Ethics require you to report a crime by a member to the Oregon State Bar? Did you report Arntt when you learned of the forgery in August 2004? Did you check the file from September .1 1, 2003 or just go by what Arntt .told you? Did you =refuse to represent this crook when you learned of his crimes against me.? Crimes= listed on cover of Crooks,. Liars Thieves! Any citizen has the right to expect a certain standard of care from a professional such as an attorney, a doctor, .ajudge, a trustee etc. Reasonable care doesn't include people committing crimes on them, falsifying court records, forging signatures, ignoring the laws, secreting documents, defaming their character, circumventing mail all for the purpose of robbing, stealing assets and claiming properties that without the criminal activity would never be lost to their rightful owners. I would love to. say I am,riding this horse into the sunset but since you have robbed me, I have nowhere to go! Besides he's a dead horse, thanks to you! I will be entering these papers in the file in Washington Case CVO4 -5383 RBL and sending copies to all attorneys involved in this scam!

Dear Robert Brouillard, The statement. "self management of chronic illness would save $1 4 Billion a year" is true.! This is the corruption that wiped out my self help! I am writing to you to ask for your help in turning around the theft of my assets by a corrupt group of people who targeted me because of my age, illness and property! The U S.Trustee Program in the U.S.Bankruptcy Court is badly broken and was used under "Color of Law" to steal my assets from my lifes work. There is a "Culture of Corruption" which is apparent here! I am asking for a full mvestigation to expose and punish these crooks. This is going on nationwide and petitioner's assets have unwillingly become trustees "Piggy Banks" benefiting the trustees themselves! They are Federal employees, Judge Trish Brown, trustee's Michael Grassmueck, Peter McKittrick,, US Trustees Pam Griffith, Vivian Popperl, Regional Director Ilene Lashinsky, Crime; Coordinator Celeste Miller, Chief Judge Elizabeth Perris, US Attorney Charles Gorder and Judicial Misconduct Committee Judge Mary Schroeder Several clerks of the Portland bankruptcy court staff and,office's staff as well. Several members of the Oregon State Bar including but not limited to Steve Arntt #97201, Linda Johannson #90306, David Mills #97728, Valerie Tomasi #84158, Fred Smith #65118 and again Peter McKittrick 852816. These are the actors in this BANKRUPTCY SWINDLE who have committed no less than 26 crimes. There is no excuse for officers of the court who know the law and knowingly, willingly and wantonly disregard the law, rules and procedures set forth by the Congress as follows. "BANKRUPTCY RULES Rule 1001 -Scope of Rules and Forms; Short Title, The bankruptcy Rules and Forms govern procedure m cases under Title 11 of the United States Code. The rules shall be cited as the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedures and the Forms as the Official Bankruptcy Forms. These rules shall be construed to secure the JUST, SPEEDY AND INEXPENSIVE DETERMINATION of every case and proceeding." This is not the way this court has preformed! Their names and actions spread throughout the case in their malicious determination to ROB me. I have counted possibly 70 people who helped commit the crimes, intimidation, defamation, illegal seizures toward me. They have destroyed my free and clear health aid and left me with no available, affordable or replaceable health care through FRAUD That is Malicious Injury They changed my address in the court file 6 days after I filed the petition. Arntt forged my name to falsified financial schedules by $413,000 00; Johannson fraudulently misrepresented and undervalued 2 properties by $204,000 00 Arntt left out $150,000 of income on the fmancial statement and inflated a $456.00 debt to $4,560 00 over by $4,104 00 all before the 341 meeting on October 17, 2003 Falsified information of $771,104.00, now you tell me how a trustee_ can possibly justify his actions when, The forgery can be detected by a first grader failing classes, The $413,000 00 was 2 mortgages, one doubled and one almost doubled, The $204,000 00 was deleted in spite of 2 appraisals less than I year old, The $150,000 00 was the balance of the 2 years plus year of filing rule, The $4,104 00 was an attempt to raise the unsecured debt above $1996.24, Unless he saw $256,000 00 of equity in 4 houses and a free and clear health aid worth $200,000 00 land and building only and full of antiques and collectables. He.stole everything and paid out $228.17 on his final report which is not done according to the accounting rules either! Now add in the $44,929 00 he charged me when I. started fighting him on this theft and he used my money to pay his and every other thieves attorney! Let's not forget the $5,000.00 he extorted m case I decide to sue him, which I was charged $5,000.00 in attorney's fees to extort it from me and the money still remains hidden with Judge Trish Brown refusing to account for the location of it. Her first extortion was for $11,500 00 to be put at her old law firm Farleigh, Wada Witt, all against Bankruptcy Law Rule 5004 Disqualification (a) Disqualification of Judge "A bankruptcy judge shall be governed by 28 USC 455 and disqualified from presiding over the proceeding or contested matter in which the disqualifying circumstances arises or, if appropriate, shall be disqualified from presiding over the case." (b) Disqualification of Judge from Allowing Compensation' "A bankruptcy judge shall be disqualified from allowing compensation to a person who is a relative of the bankruptcy judge or with whom the judge is so connected as to render it improper for the judge to authorize such compensation" How about the "Grassmueck Group" with a corporation for bankruptcy trustee, receiver and claims management started on December 15, 2004 #251908 -43 with Farleigh, Wada Witt at 121 S.W.Morrison #600 Portland, Oregon 97204, the judge's old law firm and the same firm used to embezzle my Broadway House, "with no equity" stated on November 18, 2003 m "Notice of Intent to Abandon" by Grassmueck, that made Jay Heinrich a cool $160,000 00 who's his agent was Valerie Tomasi of the same firm. This abandonment was stated on the Final Report as "NONE" While on the subject of Improper Use of Funds and Fraudulent Accounting Practices, Lets mention the $3,740 00 Ilene Lashinsky, Dept of Justice employee, charged me for her August 2005 investigation that was done with David Mills, attorney for Michael Grassmueck, doing the investigation. But no mention of him preparing the letter Lashinsky sent January 4, 2006 exoneratmg the trustee of any wrongdoing except for his billing me for it. At closer observance and with better knowledge, whose attorney is going to say their client is guilty? Lashinsky has a lot to answer for especially since her duty, I now know, was to oversee the administration of my case but instead she, choose to aid and abet fraud. Pam Griffiths and Vivian Popperl will get their chance to answer under oath why there names are on the worksheet with the entire math wrong! I guess the 3 of them can't add! "Crime, Corruption, Cronyism, Cover up" is my 4 book on the subject! This one will tell the tale of how sick this country is that would not stop this kind of FRAUD on a 68 year old chronically ill woman. "Death by Decision" is the story of the toxic product "Energy Guard" that poisoned me m 1979 involving Judge Trish Brown's law firm, Lane, Powell, Spears Lubersky who represented Sears Roebuck with the insulation product that is actually hazardous waste that they installed m peoples homes. Three minutes into this book and you will see the reason they committed Fraud on me and the reason they think they can pull it off and go scott free! "Crooks, Liars Thieves- Bankruptcy Gone A'Mueck" shows the crimes in actual court documents as best as I can explain them and last but not least I have an 800 page A to Z book that is an education into this bankruptcy crime by the people mentioned in this letter and many more. I have also done the Time Line in a small book that is easier to carry My Time line covers approximately the first 10 months of this crime spree. It is hard to phantom learning to catch thieves that have practiced for so long, who know the law and choose to break it. Then to have the attorneys willing to falsify documents and turn on their clients like hungry wolves to become their worst enemy Secret hearings and secreted documents are throughout my entire case. Even the court clerks lied to me and told me Oregon didn't have a Claim Register That kept me stupid from mid 2005 till February 2, 2006 and hid the embezzlement of my Broadway House from me! This was during the time of Lashinsky's investigation" I am not alone. This is the worst corrupted state m the country and you will get the idea after reading the thumbnail of the books I am enclosing. I had recorded a DVD in the fall of 2006 and also have taken up studying media production because of the need to educate people of the corruption in the Bankruptcy Courts We plan an expose movie like Michael Moore's. I will expose these crooks! Shame on the people who commit these crimes on the elderly, chronically ill and unsuspecting members of our society Judge Trish Brown and David Mills are using the information from the early 80's they were privileged to know, Prior Knowledge, and using information about my 111 health and using crimes to rob me of my health care for one reason, GREED! By stealing my health care they are contributing to my early demise. There is no other way to look at it! All my medical research was entered in the court file on July 19, 2005 "Objection for Intent to Confiscate Funds" 105 in answer to their motion filed on my birthday June 28, 2005 "Notice of Intent to Reserve Funds" 104 Extort Funds is more like it! This was the confiscation of $11,500 00 in case I sue them for their Fraud. Does this not allow these crooks to be above the law? NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW! The bankruptcy law says the case is to be administered according to valid state and federal law! Forgery, Use mail for Fraud, etc These CROOKS, LIARS THIEVES need °to be put out of business! Stealing property worth $1,413,000 00 with $500,000 00 of equity and $1996 00 of unsecured debt. The trustee paid out $228 17 Show me where this theft is authorized and supported in bankruptcy law CROOKS! Please do something to stop this 'crime wave! Mr Brouillard please help the victims!

They are Federal employees, Judge Trish Brown, trustee's Michael Grassmueck, Peter McKittrick, US Trustees Pam Griffith, Vivian Popperl, Regional Director Ilene Lashmsky, Crime Coordinator Celeste Miller, Chief Judge Elizabeth Perris, US Attorney Charles Gorder and Judicial Misconduct Committee Judge Mary Schroeder Several clerks of the Portland bankruptcy court staff and office's staff as well. Several members of the Oregon State Bar including but not limited to Steve Arntt #97201, Linda Johannson #90306, David Mills #97728, Valerie Tomasi #84158, Fred Smith #65118 and again Peter McKittrick 852816 These are the actors in this BANKRUPTCY SWINDLE who have committed no less than 26 crones. There is no excuse for officers of the court who know the law and knowingly, willingly and wantonly disregard the law, rules and procedures set forth by the Congress as follows "BANKRUPTCY RULES Rule 1001 Scope of Rules and Forms; Short Title, The bankruptcy Rules and Forms govern procedure in cases under Title 11 of the United States Code. The rules shall be cited as the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedures and the Forms as the Official Bankruptcy Forms. These rules shall be construed to secure the JUST, SPEEDY AND INEXPENSIVE DETERMINATION of every case and proceeding." This is not the way this court has preformed! Their names and actions spread throughout the case in their malicious determination to ROB me. I have counted possibly 70 people who helped commit the crimes, intimidation, defamation, illegal seizures toward me. They have destroyed my free and clear health aid and left me with no available, affordable or replaceable health care through FRAUD That is Malicious Injury They changed my address in the court file 6 days after I filed the petition. Arntt forged my name to falsified financial schedules by $413,000 00; Johannson fraudulently misrepresented and undervalued 2 properties by $204,000 00 Arntt left.out $150,000 of income on the financial statement and inflated a $456 00 debt-to $4,560 00 over by $4,104 00 all before the 341 meeting on October 17, 2003 Falsified information of $771,104 00, now you tell me=how a.trustee can possibly justify his actions when, The forgery can be detected by a first grader failmg classes, The $413,000 00 was 2-mortgages, one doubled and one almost doubled, The $204,000 00 was deleted m spite of'2 appraisals less than I year old, The $150,000 00 was the balance of the 2 years plus year.of filing rule, The $4,104 00 was an attempt to raise the unsecured debt above $1996.24, Unless he saw $265,000 00 of equity in 4 houses and a free and clear health aid worth $200,000 OO land and building only and full of antiques and collectables. He stole everything and paid out $228 17 on his final report which is not done according to the accounting rules either! Now add m the $44,929 0.0 he charged me when I started fighting him' on this theft and heused my money to pay his and every other thieves attorney! Let's not forget the $5,000.00 he extorted in case I decide to sue him, which I was charged $5,000 00 in attorney's fees to extort it from me and the money still remains hidden with Judge Trish Brown refusing to account for the location of it. Her first extortion attempt was for $11,500 00 to be put at her old law firm Farleigh, Wada Witt, all against Bankruptcy Law RuIe 5004 Disqualification (a)Disqualification of Judge "A bankruptcy judge shall be governed by 28 USC 455 and disqualified from presiding over the proceeding or contested matter in which the. disqualifying: circumstances arises or, if appropriate; 'shall be disqualified from presiding. over. the case." (b) Disqualification of..Judge from Allowing Compensation "A bankruptcy judge shall be disqualified from allowing compensation to a person who is a relative fof the bankruptcy judge-or with whom the judge is so connected as to render it improper for the judge to authorize such compensation" How about the "Grassmueck Group" with a corporation for bankruptcy trustee, receiver and claims management started on December 15, 2004 #251908 -43 with Farleigh, Wada Witt at 121 S. W.Mornson #600 Portland, Oregon 97204, the judge's old law firm and the same firm used to embezzle my Broadway House, "with no equity" stated on November 18, 2003 in "Notice of Intent to Abandon" by Grassmueck, that made Jay Heinrich a cool $160,000 00 who's agent was Valerie Tomasi of the same firm. This abandonment was stated on the Final Report as "NONE" While on the subject of Improper Use of Funds and Fraudulent Accounting Practices, Lets mention the $3,740 00 Ilene Lashinsky, Dept of Justice employee, charged me for her August 2005 investigation that was done with David Mills, attorney for Michael Grassmueck, doing the investigation. But no mention of him preparing the letter Lashmsky sent January 4, 2006 exonerating the trustee of any wrongdoing except for his billing me for it. At closer observance and with better knowledge, whose attorney is going to say their client is guilty? Lashinsky has a lot to answer for especially smce her duty, I now know, was to oversee the administration of my case but mstead she choose to aid and abet fraud. Pain Griffiths and Vivian Popperl will get their chance to answer under oath why there names are on the worksheet with the entire math wrong! I guess the 3 of them can't add! "Crime, Corruption, Cronyism, Cover up" is my 4 book on the subject! This one will tell the tale of how sick this country is that would not stop this kind of FRAUD on a 68 year old chronically ill woman. "Death by Decision" is the story of the toxic product "Energy Guard" that poisoned me in 1979 involving Judge Trish Brown's law firm, Lane, Powell, Spears Lubersky who represented Sears Roebuck with the insulation product that is actually hazardous waste that they installed in peoples homes. Three minutes into this book and you will see the reason they committed Fraud on me and the reason they think they can pull it off and go scott free! "Crooks, Liars Thieves- Bankruptcy Gone A'Mueck" shows the crimes in actual court documents as best as I can explain them and last but not least I have an 800 page A to Z book that is an education into this bankruptcy crime by the people mentioned in this letter and many more. I have also done the Time Line in a small book that is easier to carry My Time lme covers approximately the first 10 months of this cnme spree. It is hard to phantom learning to catch thieves that have practiced for so long, who know the law and choose to break it. Then to have the attorneys willing to falsify documents and turn on their clients like hungry wolves to become their worst enemy Secret hearings and secreted documents are throughout my entire case. Even the court clerks lied to me and told me Oregon didn't have a Claim Register That kept me stupid from mid 2005 till February 2, 2006 and hid the embezzlement of my Broadway House from me! This was during the time of Lashinsky's "investigation" I am not alone. This is the most corrupted state in the country and you will get the idea after reading the thumbnail of the books I am enclosing. I had recorded a DVD in the fall of 2006 and also have taken up studying media production because of the need to educate people of the corruption m the Bankruptcy Courts We plan an expose movie like Michael Moore's. I will expose these crooks! Shame on the people who commit these crimes on the elderly, chronically ill and unsuspecting members of our society Judge Trish Brown and David Mills are using the information from the early 80's they were privileged to know, Pnor Knowledge, and using information about my ill health and using crimes to rob me of my health care for one reason, GREED! By stealing my health care they are, contributing to my early demise. There is no other way to look at it! All my medical research was entered in the court file on July 19, 2005 "Objection for Intent to Confiscate Funds" 105 in answer to their motion filed on my birthday June 28, 2005 "Notice of Intent to Reserve Funds" 104 Extort Funds is more like it! This was the confiscation of $11,500 00 in case I sue them for their Fraud. Does this not allow these crooks to be above the law? NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW! The bankruptcy law says the case is to be administered according to valid state and federal law! Forgery, Use mail for Fraud, etc. These CROOKS, LIARS THIEVES need to be put out of business! Stealing property worth $1,413,000 00 with $500,000 00 of equity and $1996 00 of unsecured debt. The trustee paid out $228 17 Show me where this theft is authorized and supported in bankruptcy law It isn't! CROOKS! Please do something to stop this crime wave! Ms. Miller, please help the victims! It's your job! See Bankruptcy Crime 3057 All of these illegal actions are against the Bankruptcy Protection Act, Bankruptcy Law, Rules and Procedures, both federal and local. Every thing I have studied in the U.S.Trustees Manuel Chapter 7 Administration and Bankruptcy Fraud and Abuse Enforcement Program to detect fraud and abuse and prevent it from happening was done in my case and used by the very people charged with the administration of the law to abuse it and rob me! The secrecy by this court, the hidden documents, the neglect of forms and procedures, the outright disregard for the law and rules throughout this case has provided the evidence of their quilt. The very fact that a liquidation was done was against the law! Instead of my right of reorganization that is guaranteed under the law, they saw a chance to make a haul. The change of my address on September 17, 2003, six days after I filed my petition is the undisputed proof of the intent to steal my assets. Nothing in the law gave them the right to take one tea -cup from my Spa, yet they have depnved me of my chosen and effective health care for this chronic illness. My only relief was from my steam baths after 14 years of searching. The trustees own attorney, David Mills OSB 97728, was willing to represent me against the insulation company in 1986 This theft and illegal seizure was planned, it is no coincidence that all of these people have come together to rob me! But sometimes when a crook least expects it the long arm of the law surprises the hell out of them! Chicago recently was the scene of 59 people being arrested all engaged m mob activities. Time for a good awakening with this Oregon bankruptcy mob I think we will title the movie documentary which is similar to Michael Moore's by calling it "SLICKO" I now have the problem of the IRS which is a direct result of the cremes and lies allowed to fester in my case because you won't do your fob as a crone coordinator and expose these people. Now is the time for the national exposure of this corruption since I have exhausted every avenue known to me to get the law enforcement officers and the officers of the court to do their duty and settle this otherwise. Besides I have a duty to warn the rest of this nation of the threat of outright theft if they choose to use this path of treachery and believe in the Bankruptcy Protection Act. It is a FARCE! I am formally adding the names of Vivian Popperl and Peter McKittrick as their footprint has been discovered in this fraud as well. Add them to the list of people acting, discussing, engineering and/or profiting from these cremes! Shame, Shame, Shame on all of you!

BANKRUPTCY INFORMATION SHEET BANKRUPTCY LAW IS A FEDERAL LAW THIS SHEET GIVES YOU SOME GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT HAPPENS IN A BANKRUPTCY CASE. THE INFORMATION HERE IS NOT COMPLETE. YOU MAY NEED LEGAL ADVICE. You can choose the kind of bankru tc that best meets our needs. Chapter 7 A trustee is appointed to take over your property Any property of value will be sold or turned into money to pay your creditors You may be able to keep some personal items and possibly real estate depending on the law of the state where you live Chapter 13 You can usually keep your property but you must earn wages or have some other source of regular income and you must agree to pay part of your income to your creditors The Court must approve your repayment plan and your budget. A trustee is appointed and will collect the payments from you pay your creditors and make sure you live up to the terms of your repayment plan Chapter 12 Like chapter 13 but it is only for family farmers. Chapter 11 This is used mostly by businesses In chapter 11, you may continue to operate your business, but your creditors and the Court must approve a plan to repay your debts There is no trustee unless the Judge decides that one is necessary if a trustee is appointed, the trustee takes control of your business and property If you have already filed bankruptcy under chapter 7 you may be able to change your case to another chapter Your bankruptcy may be reported on your credit record for as long as ten years It can affect your ability to receive credit in the future WHAT IS A BANKRUPTCY DISCHARGE AND HOW DOES IT OPERATE? One of the reasons people file bankruptcy is to get a discharge A discharge is a Court order which states that you do not have to pay most of your debts. Some debts cannot be discharged For example you cannot discharge debts for— most taxes child support; alimony; most student loans, Court fines and criminal restitution, and personal injury caused by driving drunk or under the influence of drugs The discharge only applies to debts that arose before the date you filed Also if the Judge finds that you received money or property by fraud that debt may not be discharged (over) 4/96 Rev It is important to list all your property and debts in your bankruptcy schedules. If you do not list a debt, for example it is possible the debt will not be discharged The Judge can also deny your discharge if you do something dishonest in connection with your bankruptcy case, such as destroy or hide property, falsify records or lie or if you disobey a Court order You can only receive a chapter 7 discharge once every six years No one can make you pay a debt that has been discharged, but you can voluntary pay any debt you wish to pay You do not have to sign a reaffirmation agreement or any other kind of document to do this Some creditors hold a secured claim (for example, the bank that holds the mortgage on your house or the loan company that has a lien on your car) You do not have to pay a secured claim if the debt is discharged, but the creditor can still take the property WHAT IS A REAFFIRMATION AGREEMENT? Even if a debt can be discharged, you may have special reasons why you want to promise to pay it. For example, you may want to work out a plan with the bank to keep your car To promise to pay that debt, you must sign and file a reaffirmation agreement with the Court. Reaffirmation agreements are under special rules and are voluntary They are not required by bankruptcy law or by any other law Reaffirmation agreements— must be voluntary* must not place too heavy a burden on you or your family; must be in your best interest; and can be canceled anytime before the Court issues your discharge or within 60 days after the agreement is filed with the Court, whichever gives you the most time If you are an individual and you are not represented by an attorney, the Court must hold a hearing to decide whether to approve the reaffirmation agreement. The agreement will not be legally binding until the Court approves it. If you reaffirm a debt and then fail to paylt, you owe the debt the same as though there was no bankruptcy The debt will not be discharged and the creditor can take action to recover any property on which it has a lien or mortgage. The creditor can also take legal action to recover a judgment against you IF YOU WANT MORE INFORMATION OR HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT HOW THE BANKRUPTCY LAWS AFFECT YOU, YOU MAY NEED LEGAL ADVICE. THE TRUSTEE IN YOUR CASE IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR GIVING YOU LEGAL ADVICE. Se dispone de una copra de este documento treductda al esparto!.

If however you are found to have committed certain kinds of improper conduct described in the Bankruptcy Code. your discharge may be denied by the court and the purpose for which you filed the bankruptcy petition will be defeated 4 Even if you receive a discharge, there are some debts that are not discharged under the law "Therefore. you may still he responsible for such debts as certain taxes and student loans, alimony and support payments. criminal restitutioi. and debts for death or personal injury caused by driving while intoxicated from alcohol or drugs. 5 Under certain circumstances you may keep property that you have purchased subject to a valid security interest 1 our attorney can explain the options that are available to you.

Krause is asking for the secreted documents initiated by the fraudulent sale of the spa. Krause is 20 21 asking this court to reconsider their decision and reverse the sale. In the interest of justice, this Health 22 23 Aid, is allowed under O.R.S 160(1)(h) which states: The following property is exempt All 24 25 professionally prescribed heath aids for the debtor or a dependant of the debtor —Spa Body, Mind, 26 27 and Spirit which was fraudulently sold. O.R.S 18.345 states: Unlimited ifprofessionally prescribed 28 29 for debtor or dependants of the debtor Tools of Trade Includes a library necessary for the debtor s 30 31 occupation up to $3 000 for individuals. The health library at 511 E. First Street fits the description 32 33 under tools of trade as well as unlimited under the health aids. According to the circumstances of the 34 35 case, because it is uniquely suited for and principally used for the diagnosis, cure, mitigation. 36 37 treatment, or prevention of disease or for the purpose of affecting any structure or function of the 38 39 body The Spa- Body, Mind, and Spirit is ideal for the health program for Krause. This facility was 40 41 built in 1928, for steam bathes and is a single use building. Krause notes the fraud and forgery carried 42 43 out by this court, makes every decision suspect because the decisions are based on the forged, 44 45 fraudulent misrepresentations, of the financial facts, and amounts grossly over liabilities and 46 47 underestimated income, lack of due process, the violation of the state and bankruptcy laws, and using 48 49 mail for fraud, secreted meeting and documents. confiscating Estate monies with full knowledge and 50 51 actions of Judge Trish Brown, Trustee Michael Grassmueck, Attorney Steve Arntt, and all 1 52 participants involved in the confiscation of Krause's property These illegal activities are meant to 53 5i' deprive Krause of the essential properties and aids for her health and well being, and lively -hood. 55 56 The steam bathes eliminate the toxms from the body by expelling them through the pores of the skin 57 58 'by sweating. The skin is the largest organ of the body and acts as a third kidney Since the toxins' 59 60 damage the kidneys, liver and brain, and the body is ninety percent water the flushing of the water 61 62 system by steam bathes is crucial to the quality of live of the individual. Krause provided health care 63 64 for herself by owning the health spa, with the freedom of access 24 -hours a day seven days a week. 65 66 Thereby eliminating outside costs and allowing a very effective, prolonged detoxification program. 67 68 This facility would not be available for less than $500 00 to $1,000 00 dollars per week, possibly even 69 70 per day Anywhere else if you could even obtain all of these services in one location, even if available 71 72 it would be unaffordable for Krause. 73 74 Treatments and Benefits include Body Wraps with Herbs(Colon and Digestive functions), High -Heat. 75 76 Wraps(relaxation and mental clarity), Dry Sauna(deep heat muscle relaxant, eliminates chill blams), 77 78 Essential Oils(Lavender Oil, for headaches, Eucalyptus Oil for Pulmonary functions.), 79 80 Exercise(strengthens body), Health Library(study the herbs), Herbal Teas(200 varieties of herbs for 81 82 many uses), Specially Heated Jacuzzi(maintam constant temp erate for soaking), lodgmg(save money 83 84 and provide rest therapy), Massage(enhances circulation), Mother's Soap Products(soaks out toxins 85 1 86 and heals the skin), herbal soaps, lotions and creams(hypoallergemc), Fresh, Raw, Organic Food, 87 88 (easier access, and availability eliminates pesticide, herbicide, and preservatives), and the Main 89 90 Component -Steam Bathes(No less than 104 -107 degrees, the best healing temperature, with steam tea 91 92 to encourage sweating and bladder function) Weight -loss is essential because the toxins are stored in, 93 94 the fats of the body The skinner the better 95 96 97 I will not go away, I expect justice, and the court documents speak for themselves. 98 99 100 1 request reversal of this bankruptcy filing and that all property and possessions be returned 101 102 to me, and be placed back into my name. 1 ask the court to release the estate funds to be put into a 2 103 separate account to be used by me to repair the financial damage done to me by this court. I request 104 1 e5 compensation from the people who have perpetrated the fraud and forgery against me. I request that 106 107 all of the buyers who have been harmed by the gross misconduct of this court have their money 108 109 returned to them and they be compensated by Michael Grassmueck who bears a large degree of the 110 111 injustice that has been forced on everyone. I am not making a claim at this time for my medical 112 113 condition caused by this court. Depending on the duration of the time, that 1 am kept from having my 114 115 steam bathes, and can evaluate the damage that has been done to my health. Now is the time to get my 116 117 Spa back so I can take my steam bathes. I expect all personal property that has been stolen, broken, 118 119 looted, destroyed, disappeared, taken, sold, and damaged, to be replaced, returned. repaired or 120 121 compensated for by this Court.

(Please check www wells of justice, exposing the blatant corruption of trustees) This corruption, sad to say, is going on nationwide but Oregon is the only state where the attorneys insure each other and therefore if a lawyer sues another attorney and wins, your attorney gets to pay from their pocket. The Oregon State Bar protects and defends: the corrupt attorneys mstead of the public as was intended when the Oregon legislature formed the state bar in 1933 (4) The Time Line covers approximately the first 10 months of this crunv spree. It is hard to phantom learning to catch thieves that have practiced for so long, who know the law and willingly choose to break it. Then when I discovered their illegal actions I was victimized again with defamation and lies. This is a journey you will not envy, but I am not the first victim and I won't be the last! (5) The Theft of "The Spa' Body, Mind Spirit." I have gathered a few documents from the Washington case to expose the people aiding and abetting the theft of my Spa, the building along with all of the contents which I owned free and clear This was stolen while I was bedridden and suffering from a breakout of black spots on my legs due to chronic boron poisoning. Coldwell Banker Uptown Realty and Windermere Realty sales people worked along with the bankruptcy court Judge Trish Brown and Michael Grassmueck to secret information and documents from the court record. As my only effective Heath Aid it was exempt under a Chapter 7 and not to be touched in Chapter 11 either This was a premeditated Fraud and Theft! (6) This smaller book called "Crooks, Liars and Thieves Bankruptcy Gone A'Mueck" is an easier to carry version of this bankruptcy fraud and has many additional informative documents and law, rules and regulations which govern the Bankruptcy Protection Act, Professional ethics, Letters sent to the proper authorities to expose this fraud and to get them to do their duty! Unlike the larger book this has not been entered into the court record in its entirety (7) A larger version of Crooks, Liars Thieves= Bankruptcy Gone A' Mueck" consists of 800 pages. This is printed on standard size paper in order for the documents to be easy to read and decipher the full extent of this fraud. This is not just a book; it is an education for the average person. For the student a lesson to be learned about know corrupt the world they will be dealing with is. This is an opportunity to get involved and work to preserve the little bit of freedom and justice we have left in this country!

Low income housing so desperately needed in Portland. This property had been totally remodeled. It was in the finishing stage. I had been contemplating this purchase since 2001 1 was preparing to refinance all properties and purchase this one also in July 2004, to circumvent the fraud that had taken place behind my back and try to save my businesses and properties: before I was so rudely and criminally interrupted with people enmmii1ino the illegal seizure of my oronertv and I now realize the Chanter 11 reorganization had hen fouled by fraud. +SEE EXHIBITS ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPORSTUVWXYZ CHAMP ON AT T OF V� ;t The following information is bemg presented m the interest of Justice m the attempt to expose the crimes, also documentation from the court file numbers 9, 10, and 11 of fraud, forgery etc "Notice of Debtors Amendment of schedules D, E, F, G or H" Steve Arntt OSB 97201 filed this on October 9, 2003, the court copy is numbered 9 m the bottom right comer The same day he filed documents 10 under forgery and perjury, fraudulently misrepresentmg existmg mortgages on 4 properties m Portland, Oregon at $413,000 00 more than owed. This document was the "Amended Summary of Schedules" and listed liabilities of $1,394,579.24 contrary to my petition filed September 11, 2003 of $947,000 00 The debtor must sign this form so Amtt forged my signature to commit this "Bankruptcy Swindle" Arntt also filed a "Statement of Financial Affairs" listing one year of income of $91,407 00 instead of the required 2 years of income, plus the year of the filing also, totaling $241,407 00 Michael Grassmueck (trustee) never asked for tax forms as required by law He mtended to steal my assets and used the "Use Mail for Fraud" scheme from September 17, 2003, Six days after I filed, to this date to complete this fraud. Arntt entered into the court record on October 10, 2003, under Document #11 circled on the bottom right corner, a schedule called "Schedule A- Real Property" showing 4 Portland houses with 2 mortgages totally falsified. 3325 N.E. Wasco showed a mortgage and costs of $191,811.58 submitted on September 24, 2003 by Linda Johannson OSB 90306 Arntt filed it $379,964 58 ALMOST DOUBLE. A home of 40 years at 5005 N E. Broadway showed a mortgage and costs of $241,000 Arntt listed this on "Schedule A" as $456,694 18 ALMOST DOUBLE AGAIN This home was embezzled by Grassmueck and put in the "Claim Register" on December 15, 2003 for $241,943.39 Grassmueck knew this property had huge equity when he stole it. I learned of this on February 6, 2006 All "Crooks, Liars and Thieves" 0) If you're a crook, move to Oregon, you'll have lots of company! Arntt also listed $456 00 as $4,560 00 Another attempt to bring up the consumer debt amounts so I would fit their scheme to steal my assets. Many times per day I called Arntt to make sure he had changed my petition to a Chapter 11 and was assured by his office assistant, Joe Keenan, that it had been done. I called the court personally to get the fee difference and related it back to his office. The $1500 00 I paid Arntt covered the required fee. There was no excuse for him not to have changed the filing. I learned m 2005 of the existence of an information sheet, law requires to be discussed on the record and signed by the debtor explaining the different Chapters of bankruptcy This was to be sure I was in the correct chapter and understood the proceedings. The trustee, deliberately withheld this in order to continue the fraud on my assets. This information sheet is not in the file! Six days after I filed someone changed my address in the court file to an address that is invalid. A trustee is appointed within 6 days of filing and Grassmueck was chosen. My invalid address is the same zip code as Grassmueck, 97208, at the main post office used for mail boxes only So, any mail sent there with a street address is returned to sender But wait, it gets better Only a criminal mmd could come up with this. My address that was on my petition is. 3439 N.E. Sandy #371 Portland, Oregon 97232 This post office at one time had a box numbered 3439, so by just changing the zip code, the reader would send the mail to that post office box. Just one slight problem, the box was closed and discontinued in 1997 I wised up and checked at the post office on July 15, 2005 I learned that this mail would be sent to the dead letter office in Saint Paul, Minnesota. The "Use Mail for Fraud" was started by the person most familiar with the set -up at the main post office. This same scheme was used on a person by the name of Nancy Lou Davis in Sweet Home, Oregon with the same mail set -up shown in Exhibit U pages 16 -26 A debtor exam was scheduled for October 20, 2003 The first 341 Meeting was held on October 17, 2003 with a great deal of confusion from late document filings from Arntt, I thought I was I was m a Chapter 11, my taxi was late and that made me late, my lawyer wouldn't talk to me and answer my questions. So after the exam dunng lunch, Arntt discussed my case with a mortgage broker, Doug McCabe, and I took him to see my properties. I was assummg it was for refinancing and to get out of bankruptcy court. We discussed Chapter 11 I was billed $500 00 for this lunch. Gives a new meaning to picking up the lunch tab He billed $300.00 for the 341 meetmg. Arntt billed $180 00 to prepare the "amendments for client" The fraudulent documents from October 9, 2003 he now says "can't remember" I told him I needed to speak to him and after 3 days of calling with no questions answered, I fired him. I left a note and told Arntt and Grassmueck I was gettmg anew lawyer I was fed up with Arntt's not talking to me and I canceled the appointment.! The debtor exam by Michael Grassmueck was rescheduled but notices were sent to the "Use Mail for Fraud" address so I didn't receive them. This scheme was hatched on September 17, 2003 and it was the intention of Grassmueck that I never receive my mail. Steve Arntt's fraud and forgery are all part of the same scheme as Grassmueck's totally ignoring my sworn testimony at the 341 meeting. Arntt never sent me copies of anything he filed, totally different than any other attorney I ever hired who always sent me copies. Grassmueck said there was no clarity, agreed I had equity in all my properties and then consorted with a fired attorney to deprive me of my assets and possessions. He ignored the conversion rule, withheld the required information sheet to deceive me, that I wasn't aware I was not m Chapter 11 .and then committed bankruptcy crime to steal my assets m a Grassmueck invented "Chapter Swmdle "This corruption must cease and my assets be returned to me. Documentation hereby submitted proves the illegal seizure of my assets! Grassmueck is aware of the difference between a debtor that's solvent or insolvent. He has been a trustee for 18 years now A solvent debtor has assets to pay or cover his debts and an insolvent debtor can't. It's that simple. He knows it's a crime to file a Chapter 7 if you can pay your debts. So to take all my property when my debts are only $1996.28 is a blatant abuse of the Bankruptcy Protection Act. I have a right to reorganize under the protection the Act gives. To stay the lenders and gain time. I could have gotten a second mortgage instead of losing everything I worked for 43 years for to these crooks. Under the new action taken by Congress, a debtor has to see a credit counseling service when they wish to file a Chapter 7 It is my understanding that under the new law, bankruptcy filings are down 70% in 2006 Did Grassmueck know his income was going to being affected so dramatically? Was that his reason for the "slash and grab People are in prison for less than this! Where is the law? Where is the Department of Justice? In the Hip pocket of Grassmueck? Or David Mills his attorney? Or Judge Trish Brown? Why are they protecting these crooks? When I called the U.S Attorney's office in Portland, Oregon at 503- 727 -1000, after learning he was the person in charge above U.S.Trustee Ilene Lashinsky and the bankruptcy court, Charles Gorder hung up on me! After calling back to get proper spelling of Charles last name, I asked to speak to someone else. The receptionist said "just a minute then said "No one else to talk too" and hung up. Seems that the U S Attorneys office and the Federal Bureau of Investigation need to get their act together mstead of passing the buck between each other A crime is being committed! Can't anyone take charge and do something about it? The public citizen is the victim of the governments incompetence and the crooks are getting away with murder (I refer to my medical condition, Exhibit X.) The governments employees are either the crooks or aiding and abetting them. The proof is in the documents! A Chapter 7 is used when people have a lot of consumer .debt like credit cards, car loans, medical bills, store accounts, etc No equity Real Estate is not a consumer debt because your wealth in it is called equity But it can be sold and use the equity to pay the bills owed. Most Chapter 7 cases have no assets so the money from the case is divided among the creditors and your bills are paid or discharged or in other words forgiven. You get what is called a "fresh start." Some times keep home and exemptions. A Chapter 11 is used by someone who has a business with a small amount of consumer debts. My case was $1996.28 This was the final amount I owed after the title company paid the frivolous judgement of Dorothy and. Eric Washington of $10,000 00 in a case of storage fraud. The attorneys were paid $34,000 00 for representing the alleged theft of a broken micro- wave. No kidding! A bill I owed of $456 00 was represented by Steve Arntt as $4,560 00 I believe deliberately entered incorrectly as were the mortgage .liabilities. My assets were listed on my petition as 4 properties worth "appraised" value of $1,216,014 00 and a free and clear Health Spa at $200,000 00 This was Real Property only A store front at 3339 N.E.Wasco of 1200 square front was not included in this appraised value. My mortgages of $947,000 00 left an equity of more than $500,000 00 I easily fit under the guide- lines of Chapter 11 and could pay my $1996.28 of debt I had no credit cards, car loans, medical bills, store accounts etc I can pay and still have lots of equity left over Chapter 11 is used to buy time to "reorganize" the business because of an event that was unexpected. No property changes hands and the debtor remains as "Debtor in Possession" acting as their own trustee "The City Inspector Scandal" was the unexpected event. My $340,000 00 sale of 5008 N.E.Broadway fell through because the city wouldn't release me because of supposed house code violations, there -by hi hacking my equity of $115,000 to help me overcome the loss of funding of "The Oregon Health Plan" This was used by some of my housing clients. So basically I am studymg this bankruptcy law and have found no right given to anyone to take my property and expose me to this hardship I am now enduring. To take all 5 properties, give away my equity and toss me out in the street, endanger my life by stealing my health care. I am a targeted victim of their crime. In the end Grassmueck paid out $228 17 for a debt I had already paid but could not find the receipt. Warren Allen's law firms attorney was paid twice for writing one letter When attorneys smell money they all come to the trough. Everything was illegally seized for $228 17 according to the final report Administration charges were $45,000 00 and a confiscation of funds by David Mills of $5000 00 in case I sue them for their fraud. The order for "confiscation of funds" granted on June 28, 2005 104 issued by Judge Trish Brown in their secreted hearings, is hidden behind the Use Mail for Fraud scheme! Extortion by the Judge. First put with her old law firm, Farleigh, Wada and Witt, then with the trustee's lawyer, David Mills. This extortion money will stay with him for 2 years after the closing of the case. Case was filed September 11, 2003, today is May 11,2007 and still open. Judge Brown would not divulge the where abouts of the money, bank branch, location, account number, etc The secrecy used by this court is overwhelming and fraudulent. Accordmg to an article rn the "Willamette Week" on May 14, 2003, written about Michael Grassmueck a Chapter 7 should take 3 to 4 months to complete. "Fewer than 4% of all Chapter 7s yield any assets, according to the U S Trustee Program. Most people filing bankruptcy have long since sold, spent or hocked everything of value Most Chapter 7s are no asset cases. I found this at the library on the internet. You only need to read this article to show how this trustee, in my case, knew he was committing bankruptcy crimes! (LP) Linda Johannson OSB 90306 did her part in this fraud by deliberately, willfully, wantonly, fraudulently misrepresenting, undervaluing the market value of 3325 N.E Wasco and 3337 N.E Wasco by $204,000 She based this on a he of a Brokers Professional Opinion which she didn't get but charged me for it, anyway The store -front 3339 N.E.Wasco was not appraised m 2002 or any time later obviously She had the financial documents from Nova Star Mortgage and knew the loan to value ratio for granting the loan. By not allowing me to refinance, her actions cost Nova Star approximately $150,000 and me the benefits of the Bankruptcy Protection Act. The court knew otherwise but still wrongly, willfully ,wantonly used the information. Also ignored my request for supporting documentation, violations with the court procedures, didn't file my request and then hid it from me I re- entered it again 6 months later The court clerks have engaged in deliberate obstruction of justice. The electronic Pacer system doesn't show the first 18 entries of this case and the clerks won't enter them in the electronic record. This has created a vacuum for anyone reviewing my case electronically concerning the facts of fraud. Discrimination and BLATANT CORRUPTION! FRAUD, FORGERY, PERJURY, MISREPRESENTATION, DECEIT, DISHONESTY, SECRETED DOCUMENTS HEARINGS, the list keeps getting longer as time goes by! This case must be made available for future access and splitting the record by some on paper and some electronic is unjust. It invites Judge Trish Brown, trustee Michael Grassmueck, the court clerks and others to further their fraud and corruption. On my trip to Washington D C, I saw a lawyer from Virginia who wanted to know about my case. He pulled it up on the Internet system and found the first part of the case missing. I had taken my paperwork with me so he could see the docu- ments that are missing. However it is discriminatory toward me. Does everyone else have to carry their case file as I do? Pam Griffiths, the US Trustee is to oversee the trustee in the law that created her job "The Bankruptcy Reform Act" started "The United States Trustee Program" This was made necessary because of the cronyism between judges and trustees. Ignoring the law, she took retaliatory measures against a former attorney, Rodger Weidner, who sent her a complaint m July, 2004 which Any concerned citizen would do, concemmg the fraud that was being committed on me Instead of doing her job referring the complaint to the US Attorney as required by law, have the trustee removed from the case with a successor trustee appointed, which would have stopped the fraud, She did nothing. Now the State has filed suit against him. This is a warning to anyone else not to interfere in their scam and nothing more! This shows the connections and the cronyism that exists in this state! The law enforcement officials are breaking the law to steal people's property Massive corruption! I have sent information and asked Governor Kulengowski, Senator Gordon Smith, Earl Blumenauer, Ron Wyden to look into this obvious fraud. They have chosen a "DO NOTHING" strategy They obviously know how corrupt this state is! You can hide it for just so long and then a brave person will come forward and expose the corruption, expose the cover -up! I used the supposed justice system and walked into a den of thieves! "Wells of Justice" is a website exposing exactly that. I suggest strongly you log on and get informed. This case is a disgrace, an outrage, probably the worst yet. These crimes are punishable by fines and imprisonment, as they should be. This case is abuse of the Bankruptcy Law, Rules and Procedures, The American Disability Act and Fraud against the Elderly State and Federal Laws. Civil and Constitutional Laws and Rights violations are apparent! This case needs a full congressional inquiry because the people charged with upholding the laws of our nation are breaking them. From all appearances Oregon is too corrupt to see that iustice is served. I request an answer! 1 need help now! David Mills OSB 97728 was hired by trustee Grassmueck to help him carry out the fraud, intimidate Krause with injunction, to confiscate funds, to protect him and the other crooks in legal proceedings resulting from their abuse Of the bankruptcy laws, rules and procedures as evidenced from the record and their long association. Mills charged $500 00 to research my address, yet admitted never reading my petition of September 11, 2003 at a hearing on October 17, 2005 (Over the phone of course) He also prepared the answer for the Deliartment of Justice in a investigation I asked for in August, 2005 I was then charged $3,740 00 for his services. He wrote a letter for Ilene Lashinsky, US Trustee solely protecting his client With lies and innuendo David Mills then prepared on September 7, 2005 a document called "Intent to Abandon" a case of legal malpractice against the attorney, Steve Arntt and his associates who committed this fraud, forgery and perjury, among many other Bankruptcy and State Crimes, By protecting the people Who have done their slaughter on me and my assets they protect themselves. This was filed at approximately 23 months after the fraudulent actions were committed. The Statute of Limitations is 2 years after the event or from the pomt of discovery Grassmueck knew Arntt was committing malpractice, So it only 'stands to reason he knew of the fraud and other criminal activity When he "administered" otherwise "stole" my assets. Sent to 97/08, No Notice to me! So the investigated did the investigation. Let's see some justice! JUSTICE DELAYED IS JUSTICE DENIED!

It is 28 pages so I am only going to cover some highlights The estimate for loss per year due to fraud is about $600billion. This is a huge sum and one has to wonder how ac curate that is. In any case, fraud losses are growing especially in areas like Identity Theft and its many ramifications Just recently in the local daily paper, there was an article an- nouncing the busting of a major identity theft ring In another ar- ticle, the rise in prosecutions of identity theft was reported in- cluding the progress of a new fed eral identity theft law In a third article, an habitual identity theft Fraud: Report to the Nation of jail time, a very strong mes= sage that the days of little or no jail time for committing identity theft are over From the report, over half the cases had losses of at least $100.000 and the averag•Q length of time the scheme lasted was over 18 months, While the most common way to detect the fraud is by tip (employee, customer, vendor, or anonymous) be sec- ond most common method was by accident! But in a surprising note, the typical perpetrator is a first time offender with only 7 percent having prior convictions for fraud related offenses I say this last statistic is surpris- ing but maybe not, because it doesn t include many of the street -level crimes but rather mostly in house or business type crimes Also, the schemes go on for relatively long periods and garner large amounts of money The stepped up use of back- ground checks reduces the pos- sibility and probability of a per- son being able to do it again af- ter being caught. Small businesses are especially vulnerable to the garden variety type frauds of money or goods being taken while the larger com- panies, whose dollar losses are 1_ f• statement or more complex type frauds. Not surprising. cash is the product of choice In all frauds Best method of pre- vention. strong inter- nal controls especially in vulnerable spots like receiving and dis- bursing cash Other strong deterrent methods include educating em- ployees about fraud and what the organization is doing to prevent it including having a zero toler- ance Ethics or hot lines are im- portant as well as watching for the red flags of fraud. Who commits the most costly frauds? Well educated. senior, male executives. Surprise you? It shouldn t The hieher the person is. the more assets (like cash) the person controls. How do you get to a high rank? The three factors of age, sex, and education come into Way Older (seniority) is still the norm in most organizations to achieve a high position. There are more males than females in the hieher ranks ,Finally to eet into the higher ranks, one nor- inally has to be smart which means chances are fairly good the high ranking person has at May 14/Tune 30, 2002 'he Crusader Page 3 The 2002 Report to th6 Nation on Occu- pa., ional Fraud and A use makes for an- te sting reading as yoirZ can see from just so 1e of the data pre ser above.

Subsection 2.a allocates to the PLF control of the investigation, settlement, and defense of the CLAIM. See SECTION IX-- ASSISTANCE, COOPERATION AND DUTIES OF COVERED PARTY Costs of Defense. Subsection 2.b obligates the PLF to pay reasonable and necessary costs of defense. Only those expenses incurred by the PLF or with the PLF's authority are covered. SECTION V EXCLUSIONS FROM COVERAGE [WRONGFUL CONDUCT EXCLUSIONS] 1. This Plan does not apply to a COVERED PARTY who participates in any manner in the presentation of any false, fraudulent, or collusive CLAIM or assertion of coverage. 2. This Plan does not apply to any CLAIM based on or arising out of any intentional, dishonest, fraudulent, criminal, malicious, knowingly wrongful, or knowingly unethical acts, errors, or omissions committed by YOU or at YOUR direction or in which YOU acquiesce or remain passive after having personal knowledge thereof. This exclusion does not apply to the defense of CLAIMS arising from allegations of wrongful use of civil proceedings, but any liability for indemnity arising from such a CLAIM will be excluded. COMMENTS Exclusions 1 and 2 set out the circumstances in which wrongful conduct will eliminate coverage. An intent to harm is not required. Voluntary Exposure to CLAIMS. An attorney may sometimes voluntarily expose himself or herself to a CLAIM or known risk through a course of action or inaction when the attorney knows there is a more reasonable alternative means of resolving a problem. For example, an attorney might disburse settlement proceeds to a client even though the attorney knows of valid hospital, insurance company, or PIP liens, or other valid liens or claims to the funds. If the attorney disburses the proceeds to the client and a CLAIM arises from the other claimants, Exclusion 2 will apply and the CLAIM will not be covered. Unethical Conduct, If a CLAIM arises that involves unethical conduct by an attorney, Exclusion 2 may also apply to the fonduct and the CI AIM would therefore not be coverg. This can occur, for examplea_amalgrasy violates Disciplinary Rule ORPC 8.4(a)(3) (engagin in conduct _Involving dishonesty rand. deceit. or misrepresentation) or ORPC 5.5(a) (aiding a nonlawyer in the unlawful practice of law) and a CLAIM results. Example. Attorney A allows a title company to use his name, letterhead; or forms in connection with a real estate transaction in which Attorney A has no significant involvement. Attorney A's activities violate ORPC 8.4(a)(3) and ORPC 5.5(a). A CLAIM is made against Attorney A in connection with the real estate transaction. Because Attorney A's activities fall within the terms of Exclusion 2, there will be no coverage for the CLAIM.

(Blacks Law Dictionary says "The constituents of a legislator being those whom he represents and whose interests he is to care for in public affairs, usually the electors of his district. Doesn't say anywhere that they can dust ignore you! Wonder if the word was derived from the word "CONSTITUTION RON WYDEN'S office staff was rude and hung up on me! He has always been the CHAMPION OF LITTLE PEOPLE for as long as I can remember! WHAT HAPPENED? EARL BLUMENAUER'S office in WASHINGTON, DC would not give me an appointment as my hope was to visit in person and illicit a little compassion for FRAUD VICTIMS PILING UP LIKE CORDS OF WOOD IN OREGON 0?) So, how about if we address the corruption m the OREGON STATE BAR and the attorneys who carry it out, .a short list of names involved in my FRAUD are provided m this letter They have robbed me through Fraud and no less then 26 crimes were committed in my case. THE DOCUMENTS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES I lost my property, livelihood, retirement funds and health care because of corruption and crime perpetrated by OREGON ATTORNEYS protected by OSB They are usmg defamation and character assassination against me to hide the truth of their actions because they don't want to be exposed for what they do and pay the price for their crimes. These are all punishable under bankruptcy law with fines and prison as pointed out m the United States Trustee Manuel Bankruptcy Fraud and Abuse Prevention Program. I am being followed every time I enter a public building by security people, even to the bathroom, in the hopes that I will be intimated and give up I am bemg called nuts by Arntt who forged my name to commit fraud on me This is m writmg at the Oregon State Bar I will have lots of witness's thanks to their actions against me This started after my article appeared in the Oregon Observer At that time I didn't know the extent of their crimes, how they were illegally robbing me of all my assets. Oregon will never live this down. There are other people who will come forward in the future suffenng similar circumstances to mine These cases I know of are spread throughout Oregon in Deschutes, Lane and Multnomah counties. These attorneys are well paid for their crimes! Most victims are women suffenng from health problems, all unmarried with no one to look out for them, all of an older age, all self made women owning property of great value making us the perfect score for these crooks. I AM JUST ONE OF THEIR VICTIMS THE VICTIMS ARE STRIPPED OF THEIR ASSETS WITH ILLEGAL ACTS BY THESE CROOKS AND THE OREGON STATE BAR ASSISTS THEIR MEMBERS WITH SHAM INVESTIGATIONS and/or PROTECTION FROM BEING PROSECUTED OR SUED FOR CRIMES BY THEIR VICTIMS This corruption deprives me of legal representation to right the wrongs that were committed against me, my rights are violated by the mere fact I live m this state! Oregon "CRIME VICTIMS BILL OF RIGHTS" says, 147 410 Purpose We, the people of the State of Oregon, declare that victims of crime are entitled too fair and impartial treatment in our criminal justice system. (2) Oregon Laws 1987, we seek to secure balanced justice by eliminating unbalanced rules." The FORGERY was reported in late 2004 to the Portland police and the paperwork is still sitting in Michael Shrunks District Attorney's office gathering dust! (If it's on the top If these people are not investigated and arrested the buck stops there m this protection racket! Aiding and abetting the crimes! I am sending the information I have assembled over the course of time that it has taken me to uncover and expose this outrageous FRAUD The extent of crimes including bankruptcy crimes is completely MINDBOGGLING I would love to meet with you and listen to any suggestions you have Please get involved for the sake of Oregon citizens and their children so they will not face the corruption we have!

It's fascmatmg the extent of this corruption and the people profiting from their crimes. For Now! I will not go away! Oregon State Bar' May 3002 I am writing in regards to the reply you sent me earlier this month. I sent in a rrquest for assistance with an attorney, steven arntt, who was lying, and practicing unethically I received a reply from you stating that my only complaint was over money ($200 he stole from me) but that is NOT the case. He lied, called me names, implied I was unfit and broke lawyer /client confidentially rules. This was all clear in the copies of the emails from him I enclosed in with my complaint form. I was advised by you that I seek arbitration since you would not help me because it was all over money Well, that is not the case. I am surprised that you immediately take the lawyers side and disregard the client who was lied to and stolen from. I guess I assumed incorrectly when I sought help from you, thinking you would actually help the client and not immediately defend the attorney Could you please direct me to an agency that is willing to assist the client who was mistreated, lied to and stolen from? I have no more money at this time as I was told be Mr Arntt that my case would have been filed by April 1 St and I would now, actually have money to pay him and my mortgage This is an outrage, I was sure part of the function of the state bar was to assist in problems with unethical and immoral attorneys who stole from and lied to their clients. He not only accused me of lying, he made me promises about the case and never followed thru with them, he took my money and did no work for me, he never, once, updated me on the status of my case, he lied about it's filing date, he spoke with my brother, over the phone about my case when I did not give him permission to, he said I was not allowed in his office because of my bad attitude (you can see by all the emails I previously sent) that I never once had a bad attitude towards him, I only requested updates on the progress of the case because he never once told me how it was preceding. He spoke with my brother on the phone then lied and said he didn't. He told him I could have my money back then he said he never said that. He refuses to giver me back my documents, paperwork or my money that he has had since mid march 2003 he has done no work on the case and now refuses to do any Essentially he stole $200 from me, lied and accused me of wrongdoing. He did all this to protect his standing when he realized he has lied to me, broke promises and spoke with my brother without my permission. He knew he had acted poorly and might get reprimanded for it so he cleverly turned it around to make it look like I was the bad -guy to keep him out of trouble. I am glad I never paid him anymore, initially, that the $200 that I did. Now I am out $200 and have wasted 2.5 months trying to reclaim it so I could find an attorney who will work for me and not steal from me. I am further in debt and the stress has become nearly unbearable over the monies. He is a crocked lawyer, and as I see it, unfit to be an attorney I pity anyone else who tries to employ his services, as they will get mistreated, verbally abused and taken advantage of Now, I did request from you folks, some assistance in finding a lawyer who will actually do their job correctly I have not gotten a reply from you on that. Please help me out in finding a decent lawyer who knows the laws and follows them since you refused to assist me in obtaining my monies from Mr Arntt. Thank you, Christine Taylor RECEIVED JUN 4 2003 D1SC1PUNARY COUNSEL RECEIVED SEP 1 2 2003 DISCIPLINARY COUNSEL Lia Saroyan. Sept. 9, 03 I would like to, once again, appeal the Boards decision. How is it justified for an attorney to LIE, VERBALLY HARASS AND STEAL from clients? It was more than clearly stated in the emails I received from Mr Arntt that he was lying to protect himself. Mr Arntt intentionally broke client/lawyer confidentiality codes by discussing my case with my brother He then realized he was wrong in doing so and then began to make false statements about myself and lie to the Board. How can this NOT be seen when it was obvious in the emails? So what good is the Board, then? Why, exactly are they in existence for IF they cannot see the obvious like this? What they are telling me is that is COMPLETELY JUSTIFIED for an attorney to steal documents from his clients, Steal money from them, Break promises about the work they will do for you, discuss your matters with others not involved and to call names and harass (SEE NUMEROUS EMAILS FROM HIM BELITTLING ME AND ACCUSING ME OF WRONG DOING) people? The ONLY wrong doing was Mr. Arntt being a liar. How can this be accepted as decent behavior for an attorney? I wonder how many others he has lied to, taken monies from then refused to do not work for I have NO idea why you are protecting him and I am VERY disappointed to find out that the 5200.00 I gave him to do work for me was essentially stolen from me as he REFUSED to do any work for me. Mr Arntt's practices are completely irresponsible and I feel he should, NOW, be reprimanded for his illegal behavior At first ALL I wanted back was Mv 5200.00 and ALL my documents returned but now I see reason to further file against him so HE DOES NOT LIE, CHEAT AND STEAL FROM ANYONE ELSE WHO SEEKS HIS SERVICES. I hope a copy of this letter goes into his `file' with the Board and that a note goes onto his record of what he has done. STEALING money from and LYING to someone who was ONLY trying to have him file a simple Bankruptcy is uncalled for How can this kind of behavior be acceptable? Are there any GOOD lawyers out there or is this what I am to expect of anyone I hire to file this for me? I am currently unemployed and am loosing my house in a foreclosure; I have nothing to gain by any of this EXCEPT Mv 5200.00 back so I can hire another (HONEST) attorney to file it for me. I am very disappointed in the system and the Board should be ashamed of itself for defending Mr. Amtt and giving him license to treat people this way. Wouldn't it just be simpler to give me back ALL copies of MY DOCUMENTS (which he does have; I NEVER received any items back from him when he told me he refused to work on my case) and MY 419_0.00? Why intentionally take from the poor to give to the rich? THE MONEY IS RIGHTFULLY MINE AND I WOULD LIKE IT BACK. Thank you, Christine Taylor odit) United States Trustee Manual 8$ CHAPTER 5 -8. BANKRUPTCY CRIMES 5 -8 1 BANKRUPTCY REFORIVLACT OF 1994 The Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1994 made several changes to the criminal bankruptcy sections. The old sections continue to apply to crimes completed before the effective date of the Act, which was October 22, 1994 The new sections apply to all cases begun on or after the effective date. It is an open question as to whether crimes committed after the effective date of the Act in cases that began before the effective date are covered by the old statutes or the new statutes. Until case law resolves the issue, the safest course of action is to use the older of the statutes. No significant changes were made to 18 U.S C. 152. The paragraphs were numbered and the United States Trustee was specifically included in the statutory language. Although Congress stated the maximum fine as $5,000 and five years in prison, 18 U S.0 3571 provides the maximum fine will be $250,000 for individuals and $500,000 for organizations. 18 U S.C. 153 was changed to extend coverage to more individuals who embezzle funds from estates. The law now includes anyone who has access to property or documents of the estate by virtue of their participation in the administration of the estate in some official capacity It also, for the first time, specifically covers employees and agents of those who have this access. 18 U S.0 154 was changed to allow the United States Trustee access to documents and accounts relating to the affairs of an estate without the necessity of a court order 18 U.S.C. 156 is a new section which prohibits a bankruptcy petition preparer from knowingly attempting to disregard the provisions of title 11 or the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure if such action results in the dismissal of the case or proceedings. The offense is punished as. a misdemeanor A "bankruptcy petition preparer" is anyone, other than the debtor's attorney or that attorney's employee, who prepares for compensation bankruptcy documents for filing. It should be noted that the Act also provides civil fines and injunctive relief against bankruptcy petition preparers who do not disclose their names, addresses, social security numbers, and their compensation for preparing the documents. 11 U S C. 110 18 U S C 157 is the second new section. It creates a felony violation for anyone who devises or intends to devise a scheme or artifice to defraud and, for purposes of executing or concealing the scheme, files a petition under title 11, files a document in a proceeding under title 11 makes a false statement, claim, or promise in relationship to a proceeding under title 11 either before or after the filing of the petition, or in relation to a proceeding falsely asserted to be pending under title 11 Page 20 August, 1997 United States stee Manual Bankru tcv Fraud &Abuse Enforcement Program 5 -8 3 3 False Declarations, 18 U.S.C. S 15201 k ,C1...e 4 a 5 -834 (4) Page 28 "[A person who] knowingly and fraudulently makes a false declaration, certificate, verification, or statement under penalty of ep rjury as permitted under section 1746 of title 28 in or in relation to any case under title 11 [shall be fined not more than [$250,000], or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.]" The elements of the offense of a false oath (discussed at 5 -8 4.2 1) apply to this section as well. The only difference is that the false declaration must be made under the penalty of perjury as provided by 28 U S C. 1746. This section was added to allow prosecution where the statement is not under oath, but does have the statement above the signature or on a certificate that it is made under thepenaity of penury as provided by 28 U S.C. 1746. The United States Trustee should consider using the statement "under the penalty of penury as provided by 28 U S C 1746" on any important statements or reports filed in connection with bankruptcy cases. 5 -8 3 4 1 Elements of the Offense "[A person who] knowingly and fraudulently presents any false claim for proof against the estate of a debtor or uses any such claim in any case under title 11, in a personal capacity, or as or through an agent, proxy, or attorney [shall be fined not more than [$250,000], or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.)" A claim is a legal document submitted to the court by a creditor of the entity that has filed bankruptcy It is immaterial whether the claim is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, mature, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured, or unsecured. U.S. v. Connery, 867 F.2d 929, 934 (6th Cir 1989). 1 Bankruptcy proceedings have commenced under title 11 2. The defendant presents or causes to be presented a proof of claim in the bankruptcy 3 The proof of claim is false as to a material matter 4 The defendant knew the proof of claim was false. August, 1997 United States Tru. tee Manual Bankruntcv Fraud Abuse Enforcement Program 5 -8 2 GENERAL ISSUES 5 -8.2.1 Definition of "Knowingly and Fraudulently" August, 1997 Each section of 18 U.S.0 152 requires that the acts be done "knowingly and fraudulently The term knowingly means that the defendant is aware of his /her act (or failure to act) and that his/her conduct is undertaken voluntarily and intentionally and not because of mistake or accident or other innocent reason. It is not necessary that the government prove the defendant knew that his/her acts or omissions were unlawful. The term fraudulently means that the conduct was willful or done voluntarily and intentionally and with the intent to deceive, cheat, or defraud. An intent to defraud is accompanied, ordinarily, by a desire or purpose to bring about some gain or benefit to oneself or to cause some loss to some person. ate 1 Devitt and Blackmar, Federal Jury Practice and Instructions, 16 07 (4th ed. 1992). 5 8 3 6 Kxtortion and Bribery, 18 U.S.C. "[A person who] knowingly and fraudulently gives, offers, receives, or attempts to obtain any money or property, remuneration, compensation, reward, advantage, or promise thereof for acting or forbearing to act in any case under title 11 [shall be fined not more than [$250,000] or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.]" 5 -8.3 6 1 Elements of the Offe= A person who, with criminal intent, attempts to gain anything from a case under title 11 by either acting or forbearing to act. This is a very broad statute which covers all aspects of bribery and extortion in cases involving title 11 There is no requirement that the act or forbearance of acting be unlawful itself. Acting or not acting with the requisite criminal intent is sufficient. For example, a bidder agreeing to withdraw his/her bid in return for money is covered. U.S. v. Weis 168 F Supp 728 (W.D Pa. 1958) The issue of competing plans being withdrawn in return for payment of fees raises an issue under this statute if full disclosure is not made. U.S. v. Dunkly, 235 F 1000 (N.D Cal. 1916). Full disclosure of any offers to act or not act, e.g., compromise claims, would negate any suggestion of criminal intent.

A person described in subsection (b) who knowingly and fraudulently appropriates to the person's own use, embezzles, spends, or transfers any property or secretes or destroys any document belon m to the estate of a debtor shall be fined not more than [$250,000], imprisoned not more than five years, or both. (b) Person to Whom Section Applies. A person described in this subsection is one who has access to property or documents belonging to an estate by virtue of the person's participation in the administration of the estate as a trustee, custodian. marshal. attorney. or other officer of t or as an agent. employee, or other person engaged by such office e o Perform a service with respect to the estate." 5 -8 4 1 1 Definition of Officer and Custodian Congress amended this section in October of 1994 specifically tom attorneys and employees of trustees and other administrators of the estate. Even under the old section, however, the term custodian reached anyone who came into custody of property involving an estate because of some official position. It has reached the attorney for the trustee. Jackson v. U.S., 72 F.2d 764 (3d Cir 1934) It has also reached the treasurer of a debtor under reorganization who was employed with court approval. t7_S. v. Lunch, 180 F.2d 696 (7th Cir cert. denied, 339 U S 981 (1950). See aisg the defmition of custodian in 11 U.S.C. 101 Under the old statute, the term officer would reach any professional employed by a trustee and approved by the court, such as an auctioneer 11 U.S.C. 327 It would not, however, reach a regular employee such as a secretary or paralegal. The new statute clearly applies to the attorney for the debtor It also should reach the debtor in possession under chapter 11 A good argument can be made that such a debtor in possession does have access because of that person's participation in the administration of the estate under court approval. If so, employees of the debtor in possession would also be covered. Until case law resolves this issue, however, a charge under 18 U S.C. 152(1) should also be used.

The FBI says they will add my documents to a "collection" Swear to GOD in letter form) Can't do any thing until the US Attorneys Office asks them too, Portland Police won't do anything about the forgery because they aren't process- ing paper crimes" But did say the PLF has denied my claim (little hard to do since I never made a claim besides PLF doesn't insure attorneys for illegal activities, But the attorneys insure each other so if you get an attorney to sue another attorney for malpractice and you win, your attorney will have to pay you for winning from his own pocket! Oh yes, according to the OSB your attorney does not have to speak to you (There is no rule requiring him too.) They say if you have 3 lawyers in a room and they all comment on a document, you will get 4 opinions. This is so totally pathetic (and only the beginning) I wrote this book so everyone can have a good laugh and maybe if made into a movie we can show our children and grandchildren this country is the land of the free and the home of the slave.
