Correspondence with Sharon Anderson in RE: Complaint pertaining to fraud in PACER and CM/ECF
and discrimination against non-lawyers (pro se filers) in the US courts
William Windsor introduced me to Sharon Anderson, who has been active in protesting the fraud in PACER and
CM/ECF for some years.
I am seeking input on the issue of filing a petition by a group of pro se filers, against US Attorney General Eric Holder,
"To Compel US Officer to Perform His Duties", relative to corruption of the US Courts in general, and in particular
regarding the fraud in the public access (PACER) and electronic filing (CM/ECF) systems in the US courts by the
Administrative Office of the US Courts and discrimination against pro se filers through denial of access to CM/ECF.
____
• Filing with the United Nations Human Rights Council, which led to a report that stated: Corruption of the courts and
the legal profession in California,
• Publication in peer-reviewed, international computer science journal,
• Presentations in the 16th World Criminology Congress.
• Communication with foreign embassies and international central banks and banking regulators.
IN SUM:
The evidence shows that corruption of the US courts is at a level that has not been seen in a century or more. The
fraudulent electronic systems are claimed to be a key enabling factor.
1. The chances that filing a petition for a Writ of Mandate "to Compel a US Officer to Perform His Duties" will remedy
the situation are slim.
2. Filing such complaint will provide further evidence of the corruption, and help to build the pressure on the US
government.

3. Filing such complaint on the fundamental issue of fraud in PACER and CM/ECF will allow to get together a large
group of complainants from around the country.
WHAT NEXT?
I suggest writing a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder, requesting that he perform his duties, and restore the integrity
of the US courts by addressing the fraud in PACER and CM/ECF and the discrimination against pro se filers.
The issues that were identified so far, which enable the routine conduct of cases as Simulated Litigation are:
A. The Administrative Office of the US Courts has implemented fraudulent, invalid public access (PACER) and
case management (CM/ECF) systems in the US courts with no legal authority at all.
1. Failure of the US courts to publish valid Rules of Courts, to establish the new court procedures, deemed effective by
the US Courts following the implementation of PACER and CM/ECF.
2. Publication of simulated PACER dockets, which the clerks of the US courts refuse to certify
3. Failure to establish a legally valid and publicly recognized forms of digital signatures of judges and clerks.
4. Implementation of invalid, simulated authentication records (NEFs - Notices of Electronic Filing in the District Courts
and NDAs - Notices of Docket Activity in the US Courts of Appeals), which replaced the Certificates of Service.
5. Elimination of the authentication records (NEFs and NDAs) from the PACER dockets, and thereby making it
impossible for the public to distinguish between valid and void court records.
6. Routine failure of the US Courts to docket the summonses in the PACER docket, in apparent violation of the Federal
Rules of Civil and Criminal Procedure, and initiation of simulated litigation cases with no valid summonses issued or
executed.
7. Routine failure to file valid Assignment Order for judges, Referrals for Magistrates.
8. Publication in PACER dockets of simulated minutes, orders, and judgments, which are unsigned and/or
unauthenticated, or without docket number and link to any record at all.
9. Failure to establish valid authorities in CM/ECF, and thereby enabling the entry of minutes, orders, and judgments in
the PACER dockets by unauthorized court personnel, who are not Deputy Clerks.
10. Enabling the appearance of attorneys, who are not Attorneys of Record, with "no communication with clients"
clause. The practice is rampant in cases involving large corporations and government officials.
11. Enabling the entry of papers in the PACER dockets by attorneys with no prior review by authorized Deputy Clerks.
12. Arbitrary and capricious denial of public access to critical court records in the various US courts (Summonses,
papers filed by parties, Judgment Index, Calendars of the Courts, Docket Activity Report, Corporate Parent Reports,
etc)
13. False encoding of actions (e.g., “Motion” encoded as “Misc” – so that no action is opened and no action needs to be
terminated).
14. Conduct of entire cases as simulated litigation, where “No status pending is open, no status pending was
terminated”.
B. Discrimination against pro se filers, related to denial of access to CM/ECF, amounts to abuse of the Human,
Constitutional, and Civil Rights of the People.
1. Routine denial of access to CM/ECF, which established two separate and unequal classes in access to the courts
and to court records.
2. The cost and time required to file on paper by far exceed the cost of electronic filing.
3. The denial of access to CM/ECF by pro se filers enables court personnel to eliminate undesirable papers, which
were duly filed by pro se filers, from the PACER dockets.
4. The denial of access to CM/ECF enables the denial of access to critical court records, which appear only in
CM/ECF, in apparent violation of First Amendment and Due Process rights.
C. Fraud in the Public Access and Electronic Filing systems of the US Supreme Court undermines the
foundation of the Rule of Law [3]
1. Publication of invalid simulated dockets, journal, decision, judgments by the US Supreme Court has undermined the
rule of law.
2. Issuance of US Supreme Court notices, decisions, judgments by unauthorized personnel.
3. Denial the right to file papers in the US Supreme Court by unauthorized personnel.

z Page 3/5 June 1, 2011
a) The fraud in the PACER dockets, which permits to show invalid records (e.g. the series of certificates in
your case), which effectively is denial of Access to the Court and Denial of Equal Protection.
b) The denial of FIRST AMENDMENT access to court records (e.g. - in your case, the refusal to permit
you access to the certificates which had no Dkt #)
c) The denial of FIRST AMENDMENT right to file papers in court - e.g., in Judge Richard Leon's court.
Papers, which provided direct documentary evidence of judicial corruption were "denied the right to
file". I had the same experience in:
i. US District Court, Los Angeles
ii. US Court of Appeals, 9th Circuit
iii. US Supreme Court.
a) That they are universal, for all US courts, and very simple, I believe. If we take this route, we do not get
into the details of the individual cases, yours, or mine, although we can incorporate them by reference
to the previous complaints.
b) That there would be much more interest in the legal community in the US and abroad in such
complaint, rather than a complaint that deals with the corruption and details of the corruption in this
case or that with this judge or that. PACER and CM/ECF were universally installed by the
z Page 4/5 June 1, 2011
Administrative Office of the US Courts, and in my opinion it is historically unheard of - organized fraud
on the people by the judiciary branch.
c) We could try to introduce expert reports on the matter, which would be much easier than introducing
expert reports on the individual cases. (Although in my case in California, I had an Expert Report from
an FBI veteran, who is likely the most decorated alive, and Judge Leon "denied the leave to file" the
report.) If they "deny the leave to file" reports on fraud in PACER and CM/ECF, it would be
newsworthy, I believe.
1. Short review regarding the NEF (Notice of Electronic Filing) - a core instrument of fraud in the US
Courts systems (PACER and CM/ECF) [1]
2. Filing in the US Court of Appeals, 9th Circuit, on this matter [2]
3. Documentation of abuse against non-attorney filers by Judge Richard Leon, US District Court, DC, in
Civil Rights Matters. [3]
4. Joseph Zernik Bio [4]
1. Discrimination - two classes, separate and unequal - have been established relative to access
to the courts.
2. The US courts electronic systems (PACER and CM/ECF) are routinely used to defraud non-
attorney filers, particularly in civil rights matters, through the conduct of Simulated Litigation.
The same problem is found in the state courts, but I believe that addressing the large-scale fraud in the
US courts is the higher priority.
Would you or others, copied on this message, be interested in joining a filing in the US District Court,
DC, for a Writ of Mandate "to compel US Officer to Perform His Duties" against US DOJ in this matter?
Please let me know.
Truly,
Judge Richard Leon, US District Court, DC - master of the 'Leave to File Denied'
