The reason I’ve laid out this entire timeline is so you can see the sheer volume of misconduct I’ve had to navigate—while learning the law, keeping my filings in compliance, working full-time, taking care of two dogs, and constantly trying to stay one step ahead of people who have far more power and institutional support…
According to the rules for contested case petitions, a judge should be assigned within five days of filing, but ten days later I still hadn’t heard anything. When I went to check the status, I discovered that the Office of Administrative Hearings had an eFiling system, so I registered. That’s when I saw that my…

Anna has painted me as aggressive, harassing, threatening, and hostile. But if that were true, she should have evicted me — instead, she was forcing me to stay.
