As if managing the federal cases and the mandamus weren’t enough, I had to shift my attention back to the district court because Attorney David Yopp refused to take any of my warnings seriously. Every move he made at this point was a calculated ploy to force the federal case into dismissal by manufacturing chaos…
After Judge Osteen issued multiple retaliatory orders, it became clear the court was going to keep obstructing my case. I had to rewrite my mandamus and submit it as a supplemental filing, and at the same time I filed a Notice of Obstruction, Retaliation, and Ongoing Harm in both cases to put on the record…
After spending a week straight researching and writing, I filed for petition of writ of mandamus and served it upon Judge Osteen on August 20th, 2025. These are rarely granted but I was left with no other options as the court has been delaying any rulings and avoiding the TRO request. A writ of…

On August 7, 2025, Attorney Mary Scruggs from the North Carolina Department of Justice filed a motion on behalf of Administrative Law Judge Karlene Turrentine seeking an extension of time to respond to my Amended Complaint until September 15, 2025.

What he left out is that the filing was made after the 5:00 p.m. electronic service deadline and is therefore deemed served…
I filed three major documents today—my response to David Yopp’s motion to dismiss, a supplemental to my renewed emergency TRO, and a notice of intent to seek mandamus if this Court continues to sit on my pending motions. My TRO supplement lays out new evidence that the North Carolina Court of Appeals has been issuing…
When I filed my amended complaint in my § 1983 claim, I added Anna De Santis after David Yopp’s Court of Appeals sanctions motion confirmed a premeditated plan he had threatened back in February—a plan Anna was clearly aware of. For more than two months, the Durham County Sheriff tried to serve her at the…
Today was the deadline for defendants to respond to my amended § 1983 complaint. Judicial defendants, through Special Deputy Attorney General Elizabeth O’Brien, asked for 20 more days to respond, citing a change in counsel and the service for Judge Turrentine. This was granted despite violation of the local rule she referenced.
