Re: Anderson v New York State, Code of Conduct for US Judges Canon 3B(5), Protecting the People

Hon. Shira A. Scheindlin;
                Please take appropriate action in reporting the misconduct of attorneys apparent in the action before you to appropriate authorities.   The revised Code of Conduct for Judges, effective July 1, 2009, in Canon 3D(5) says, “A judge should take appropriate action upon learning of reliable evidence indicating the likelihood  … a lawyer violated applicable rules of conduct.   Also,  please consider the Commentary to this Canon.
 
    The trial revealed conduct by attorneys violating  DR 1-102 A (1), (3), (4) and (5) of the NY Lawyer's Code of Professional Responsibility.            Attorneys also violated NY Penal laws:
        § 195.00 Official misconduct,
        § 195.05 Obstructing governmental administration in the second degree,
        § 175.20 Tampering with public records in the second degree.
 
        § 175.25 Tampering with public records in the first degree. (class D felony),

    The attorneys at the 1st Department Departmental Disciplinary Committee violated Federal Criminal Law         § 241 Conspiracy against rights, not only against Christine Anderson, but also against the class of people whose complaints were “cleansed,” and the class 'The People of NY.”

    Another issue requiring appropriate action concerns the failure of the NY Attorney General's Office to do it's duty under NY Executive Law: § 63. General duties. The attorney-general shall:Prosecute and defend all actions and proceedings in which the state is interested, ... to protect the interest  of  the  state…

    This is not something for the jury, unless the court so decides.     I've copied it to the attorneys for Christine Anderson and to the NY Attorney General so that they may have input and so this is not an ex parte communication.  I do not know whether all of the attorneys affected are admitted before this court.   Please do what is required by your oath of office.

                                            Sincerely yours,


                                        Terence Finnan

                                    Phone 518-576-9734

P.S. This letter identifies the Departmental Disciplinary Committee by its 1st Department name and not the name for identical committee in 3rd Department called Committee on Professional Standards  used in my prior letter.  The troubling facts are unchanged.
