Final Determination

Twelve days after the NCHRC issued the final determination on the investigation, I finally received it in the mail. They hadn’t updated my mailing address, despite me providing it, which caused the delay. You’ll notice the determination was issued five days after I emailed HUD—stating there were no reasonable grounds for my claim. After reviewing…

Civil Dispute Court of Appeals Law / Statute / Information Plaintiff State Court

Notice of Interlocutory Appeal

After filing a motion to strike the defective extension on admissions, I immediately requested a hearing for that same week so the admissions could be deemed admitted before the February 13 hearing.

New Attorney Appears

After Mr. McGraw withdrew, he failed to account for the February 3 admissions deadline, forcing the newly retained attorney to step in earlier than expected on January 31. I had previously filed a motion to continue during this timeframe due to being out of town for work, so the timing around substitution wasn’t coincidental. Under…

Amended Rule 2.1 Order

On January 30, 2025, Chief District Court Judge Eagles denied my motion to have the case designated as an exceptional civil case under Rule 2.1, stating that the claims weren’t complex and there weren’t enough parties to warrant the designation—even though this was the very same case where defendants were allowed to delay proceedings to…

Motion Hearing Leads to Misconduct & Appeal

This hearing was meant to address my emergency motion and clarify procedural issues caused by defendants' delays and inconsistent court orders. Despite Judge Walczyk being lead civil judge, I was pushed to the end of the docket, repeatedly talked over, and mischaracterized. She blamed me for case delays due to my appeal, ignoring that these…

On January 27, 2025, I filed an Emergency Motion to address the procedural disorder created by the defendants’ overlapping filings, failure to respond to discovery, and repeated violations of court rules.

Order to Extend Time to File Responsive Pleading and Motions

I wasn’t notified that the extension order had been entered; I only found out about it through Frank.

Frank decided to file another motion to continue on only my motions, but of course want to move forward with his.

Civil Dispute NCHRC / HUD Plaintiff Violations

No HUD in Sight

After what happened at the hearing in state court and the HCHRC still ignoring my request for a swift determination, I sent an email to HUD. The NCHRC's mishandling of the case not only raised serious concerns about bias and transparency but also gave the opposing attorney an opening to weaponize the unresolved complaint…
