The more my case moves along in state court, and every time something happens, I have to ask myself, is this real life? Am I living in some kind of water down version of John Grisham novel where the actions being taken are so ridiculous and strange that it goes beyond normal life? Because every…

On Monday morning, I appeared promptly at 9:00 AM for the scheduled hearing. There was no movement or acknowledgement for the first 14 minutes—even though the clerk confirmed I was present. That immediately raised concerns. This wasn’t a stacked calendar day—it was just my hearing. I knew the opposing party was physically at the courthouse,…
On the same day I filed my federal complaint, I received an email from Mr. Yopp stating that he intended to file a motion to continue the trial and asking what date I preferred. I responded by reiterating that under the automatic stay, it wasn’t my responsibility to propose dates—it was the court’s obligation to…
On April 16, 2025, the defendants filed a Request for Judicial Settlement of the Record on Appeal under Rule 11(c), but their request went far beyond what the rule permits. Rule 11(c) allows the trial court to resolve disputes over the narrative of the record—factual disagreements or clarifications about what happened procedurally—not to decide what…
After I filed a detailed Motion for Sanctions and a Motion for Leave to Reply in the Court of Appeals, opposing counsel doubled down by responding in a hostile, condescending tone—continuing to misrepresent both the procedural record and the law. Their response to my Motion for Sanctions accused me of filing premature appeals for the…
The defendants filed an opposition to my Writ of Prohibition, mischaracterizing the facts, minimizing my appeal as nothing more than dissatisfaction with “routine orders,” and falsely claiming I filed an amended complaint without leave of court—despite the fact that the court had already denied their motion to strike it. Their response was riddled with misleading…
Despite the case being under interlocutory appeal and discovery already being implicated in the review, opposing counsel served discovery responses that were riddled with boilerplate objections, irrelevant denials, and evasive answers. Nearly every interrogatory was met with blanket claims of irrelevance, undue burden, or privilege—without a proper privilege log—and in some cases, they objected and…
Honestly, I’m not even sure if I can call this a hearing—it was a complete mess from start to finish.
Before the hearing, I had emailed opposing counsel the contract for transcripts of the other hearing as required for my interlocutory appeal and followed up on the notice of appeal. Although he acknowledged receiving…
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…
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…
