State Court

Order Required in the Court

After I was told by the court to appear at a Webex hearing on February 14 following the previous day's proceeding, I emailed the trial court administrator to confirm the hearing and explain that I had filed both an Objection to the Improperly Noticed Hearing and a Writ of Supersedeas and Motion to Stay with…

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

Automatically Denied

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…

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. If granted, that would have effectively resolved the case since the admissions covered every claim. Although the court denied my request for an…

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…

Civil Dispute Court Order / Judgment Judicial Misconduct Alleged Law / Statute / Information State Court

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…

Emergency Motion for Judicial Economy

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. With less than 30 days left before trial, the court had granted orders—like the extension to answer and the continuance of my Motion…

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. It was suspicious that the order was issued the day after I filed a motion to compel an answer, yet it was entered without a hearing, without acknowledgment of my objection, and without any showing of…

Frank decided to file another motion to continue on only my motions, but of course want to move forward with his. This is what the cover sheet looks like when you correctly file with it, but unfortunately the motion was procedurally flawed, lacked good cause under Rule 6(b), and failed to explain the…

With discovery being in a couple of days, specifically the interrogatories and documents. Instead of complying, defendants filed a Motion to Extend Discovery.
