VIRGINIA:
COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA
JANICE WOLK GRENADIER
Plaintiff /Appellant Record NO 2141-13-4
From Circuit Court of Alexandria NO CH.99-1253
Vs.
DAVID MARK GREANDIER
Defendant/Appellee
RE-HEARYING / RECONSIDERATION FROM MEMORANDUM OF OPINION
COME NOW APPELLANT asks this court for Reconsideration:
1. The use of rule 1:1 is unreasonable and inappropriate for denying Plaintiff a Property
Settlement. There is little question that fraud in procuring a settlement agreement can justify setting
aside the agreement and judgment. E.g., I n re Marriage of Modnick, 33 Cal. 3d 897, 191 Cal. Rptr.
629 (1983); Compton v. Compton, 101 Idaho 328, 612 P.2d 1175 (1980); Anderson v. Anderson, 399
N.E.2d 391 (Ind. Ct. App. 1979); Daffin v. Daffin, 567 S.W.2d 672 (Mo. 1978).
Fraud in procuring a settlement can also be the basis for an independent tort action. Hall v. Hall, 455 So. 2d
813 (Ala. 1984); In re Benge, 151 Ariz. 219, 726 P.2d 1088 (Ct. App. 1986); Dale v. Dale, 66 Cal. App. 4
th

1172, 78 Cal. Rptr. 2d 513 (1998); Den v. Den, 222 A.2d 647 (D.C. 1966); Oehme v. Oehme, 10 Kan. App.
2d 73, 691 P.2d 1325 (1984); Burris v. Burris, 904 S.W.2d 564 (Mo. 1995); Carney v. Wohl, 785 S.W.2d
630 (Mo. Ct. App. 1990); Hess v. Hess, 397 Pa. Super. 395, 580 A.2d 357 (1990). See also Vickery v.
Vickery, 1996 WL 255755 (Tex. Ct. App., December 5, 1996) (wife awarded $9 million against husband for
fraudulently procuring divorce and marital settlement agreement, and $450,000 against husbands attorney),
affirmed over dissent in light of Schleuter v. Schleuter, 975 S.W.2d 584 (Tex. 1998), Vickery v. Vickery,
999 S.W.2d 342 (Tex. 1999). See generally, Robert G. Spector, Marital Torts: The Current Legal
Landscape, 33 Fam. L. Q. 745, 757 (1999); Cary L. Cheifetz, The Future of Matrimonial Torts: The
Unmapped Landscape, 15 Fair$hare 4 (August 1995). The courts are especially harsh with
spouses that commit fraud who are attorneys. That even though David Grenadier is not a
lawyer he worked in collusion with Ilona Grenadier Heckman his mother a Divorce attorney with
over 40 years experience Anderson v. Anderson, 399 N.E.2d 391 (Ind. Ct. App. 1979); Scholler v.
Scholler, 10 Ohio St. 2d 98, 462 N.E.2d 158 (1984); Webb v. Webb, 16 Va. App. 486, 431 S.E.2d 55 (1993).
That Ilona Grenadier Heckman who Intervened into the Divorce is a Divorce attorney, who has in
collusion with David Grenadier created a smoke and mirrors that properties were not owned by
2

Plaintiff. The Truth and the facts are Plaintiff from around October 1986 worked as a partner and
put money into the properties without being paid back for her time or financial investment.
The concealment of marital assets during the divorce proceeding has also given rise to tort actions. Swain v.
Swain, 576 N.E.2d 1281 (Ind. Ct. App. 1991); Garrity v. Garrity, 399 Mass. 367, 504 N.E.2d 617 (1987).
But seeBeers v. Beers, 724 So. 2d 109 (Fla. 5
th
DCA 1998); Nederlander v. Nederlander, 205 Mich. App.
123, 517 N.W.2d 768 (1994); Smith v. Smith, 113 N.C. app. 410, 438 S.E.2d 457 (1994); Schleuter v.
Schleuter, 975 S.W.2d 584 (Tex. 1998); Gardner v. Gardner, 175 Wis. 2d 420, 499 N.W.2d 266 (Ct. App.
1993). That Divorce attorney Ilona Grenadier Heckman with knowledgeable intend to defraud
Plaintiff used an attorney not licensed in Virginia to do a Liquidation Agreement. That Divorce
Lawyer Ilona Grenadier Heckman knew that Plaintiff needed to sign such agreement.
That Ilona and David have hid the documents from loans and Real Estate from Plaintiff to conspire
against Plaintiff. This is and was a civil conspiracy and Civil RICO.
Civil Conspiracy
As acceptance of economic torts becomes more prevalent, plaintiffs have been casting the net wider to sue
not only offending spouse but also those who aided the offending spouse in the fraud. One possible avenue
of recovery is civil conspiracy. Key to this cause of action is a defendants substantial assistance in a plan to
defraud, with the knowledge that such assistance is contributing to a common tortious plan. Thus, the
doctrine is reserved for application to facts which manifest a common plan to commit a tortious act where
the participants know of the plan and its purpose and take affirmative steps to encourage the achievement of
the result.
The most recent case to allow a claim against an ex-spouse and a third party for fraud is Brown v. Managed
Care, Inc., No. M1999-02551-COA-R3-CV (Tennessee Court of Appeals, February 1, 2000) (unreported). In
this case, the divorced mother of a minor child claimed that her former husband and his employer conspired
to fraudulently understate the husbands income, in order to defeat her attempts to have his child support
obligation increased to an appropriate amount. The trial court granted summary judgment to the defendants,
and the appellate court reversed. The court first reiterated the elements of conspiracy:
Our courts have recognized a cause of action for a civil conspiracy to defraud. The Court described the
elements of the tort and what it takes to prove it in the following manner: A conspiracy to defraud on the
part of two or more persons means a common purpose, supported by a concerted action to defraud, that each
has the intent to do it, and that it is common to each of them, and that each has the understanding that the
other has that purpose. The agreement need not be formal, the understanding may be a tacit one, and it is not
essential that each conspirator have knowledge of the details of the conspiracy.

(Citations omitted.) See also Restatement (Second) of Torts 876(b) (1977) (a person may be liable in tort if
he knows that the ... conduct [of another person] constitutes a breach of duty and gives substantial
assistance or encouragement to the other so to conduct himself.).
The court then concluded that the divorced mother stated a cause of action:
If we take the allegations of the plaintiffs to be true (as we are obligated to do when reviewing a summary
judgment motion), then the defendants conspired to understate Mr. Barenkamps income from the very
moment his employment with Birman & Associates began. The acts performed in furtherance of the
conspiracy included the issuance of payroll checks to Kathy Barenkamp and of bonus checks to William
Barenkamp, as well as attempts to throw Charlotte Brown off the track when she called Birman & Associates
to confirm the circumstances of William Barenkamps employment. But all these acts would be of no avail if
Mr. Barenkamp had testified truthfully as to his income. We are unwilling to hold that the very act required
to consummate the fraud also had the effect of immunizing the defendants from liability for it.
Thus, where a spouse and another person act in concert for the common purpose of
defrauding the other spouse, an action for conspiracy will lie.
Conspiracy was also accepted in Dale v. Dale, 66 Cal. App. 4
th
1172, 78 Cal. Rptr. 2d 513 (1998), where the
wife sued for breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, constructive fraud, intentional and negligent misrepresentation,
conversion, conspiracy, fraudulent conveyance, constructive trust, and declaratory relief. In this case, the
wife claimed that after the husband was served with divorce papers, he and his bookkeeper withhold from
billing patients, withheld monies received as payments to the accounts receivable, falsified ledgers, financial
statements, and income tax returns, and otherwise acted in concert to artificially reduce the value of the
husbands medical practice. The California appellate court upheld the wifes claims. Accord Liles v. Liles,
289 Ark. 159, 711 S.W.2d 447 (1986) (wife awarded damages for husbands attorneys fraud and
misrepresentation in wifes suit to set aside property settlement agreement); Carney v. Wohl, 785 S.W.2d 630
(Mo. Ct. App. 1990) (upholding wifes claim of fraudulent misrepresentation against husband and husbands
father); Vickery v. Vickery, 1996 WL 255755 (Tex. Ct. App., December 5, 1996) (wife awarded $9 million
against husband for fraudulently procuring divorce and marital settlement agreement, and $450,000 against
husbands attorney), affirmed over dissent, Vickery v. Vickery, 999 S.W.2d 342 (Tex. 1999).
That when Divorce Lawyer Ilona Grenadier Heckman Intervened into the Divorce in order to
protect her interests in properties, it became clear the actions of Ilona & David were and are
actions that were knowledgeable actions since October of 1986 to defraud Plaintiff.

Another possible avenue for recovery against a spouse and a third party for economic fraud is the Racketeer
Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), 18 U.S.C. 1961-64 (Supp. 1999). Claims under RICO
in the divorce context are also scarce, but not unheard of.
The strongest RICO case is Perlberger v. Perlberger, 1998 WL 76310, 1998.EPA.1313 (E.D. Pa. February
24, 1998). In this case, a woman filed a civil RICO claim against her ex-husband, his law practice associates,
and his accountants for allegedly participating in a fraudulent scheme to conceal his true income during the
divorce action. According to the wife, the fraudulent scheme began in 1986 when the husband decided to
divorce the wife. He devised a scheme whereby he would initiate an extra-marital affair for the purpose of
shielding his assets and income from scrutiny during divorce. The husband, an attorney, began an affair with
a client, and purchased a home in her name. He then left his law firm and instead of using his own assets (a
capital account the former firm owed him), he used his girlfriends assets to establish a credit line for a new
firm. He was then able to argue that his new firm was not a marital asset. He also paid his girlfriend an
inflated salary, and had another attorney, Rothenberg, hold all the assets to the new firm. The court stated:
Here, Plaintiffs RICO claim is based on Defendants alleged mail and wire fraud. Although the alleged
fraudulent scheme perpetrated by the Defendants may be accurately described as garden variety fraud,
such a characterization is not fatal to Plaintiffs RICO claim under the current state of the law.
Defendants next argue that they have not found any cases in Pennsylvania in which civil RICO has been
used to attack a divorce decree, child support order, or alimony award. (Accountant Defs. Mot. at 3.)
Although the Court also has not found any such Pennsylvania cases, the Court has found a number of Federal
cases where courts have entertained civil RICO claims relating to family law matters. E.g., Grimmett v.
Brown, 75 F.3d 506 (9th Cir. 1996); Calcasieu Marine Nat. Bank v. Grant, 943 F.2d 1453 (5th Cir. 1991).
With Tabas as guidance and with the decisions of other courts in mind, the Court will not dismiss Plaintiffs
RICO claim on policy grounds.
Perlberger represents a small but growing handful of cases where a spouse asserts civil RICO in the divorce
context. See Smith v. Johnson, 173 F.3d 430 (6
th
Cir. 1999) (unpublished table decision); DeMauro v.
DeMauro, 115 F.3d 94 (1
st
Cir. 1997); Grimmett v. Brown, 75 F.3d 506 (9
th
Cir. 1996); Calcasieu Marine
National Bank v. Grant, 943 F.2d 1453 (5
th
Cir. 1991); Evans v. Dale, 896 F.2d 975 (5
th
Cir. 1990); DuBroff
v. DuBroff, 833 F.2d 557 (5
th
Cir. 1987); Dibbs v. Gonsalves, 921 F. Supp. 44 (D.P.R. 1996); Reynolds v.
Condon, 908 F. Supp. 1494 (N.D. Iowa 1995); Streck v. Peters, 855 F. Supp. 1156 (D. Haw. 1994); Hibbard
v. Benjamin, No. 90-1-361-WF, 1992 WL 300838 (D. Mass. Sept. 21, 1992); Capasso v. Cigna Insurance
Co., 765 F. Supp. 839 (S.D.N.Y. 1991).
That no property settlement when many parcels of Real Estate were owned and that the
Defendant falsified his ownership in Bankruptcy court with the collusion of Divorce Lawyer Ilona
Grenadier Heckman. That the claim in Bankruptcy court was that with no Property Settlement all
Real Estate unless otherwise stated was marital Property. Since there was no Property Settlement
and Plaintiff had taken an active role in management of Real Estate owned by GIC / Monroe Ave /
Southway Terrace then that should be considered 50 50 as 28 East Bellefonte was even when
5

the Deed read 50 50. That the collusion of Mother & Son whom also created a Fraud through the
Mothers Law Firm Grenadier Law et al with the theft of over $95,000 from the Sonia Grenadier
Trust. That the Scheme left Plaintiff without properties that depending on how the accounting and
notes are counted put over $100,000 in cash towards GIC / Monroe Ave / Southway Terrace. That
there is no question that the documents, letters from Mother / Lawyer Ilona Grenadier Heckman
shows the expected involvement in properties by Plaintiff for no fee.
That Mother and son were aware of and tried to hide from Plaintiff the part of the enterprise that
was rightfully hers. This was and will be demonstrated in the Loan documents with Plaintiffs
signature and that the Properties were held in Trust by Divorce lawyer Ilona Grenadier Heckman
who with knowledgeable intend to cover up who had an interest in the properties signed most
documents as Trustee. The collusion / enterprise was with the intend to defraud and manipulate
Plaintiff.
That when Divorce Attorney Ilona Ely Freedman Grenadier Heckman at the time of the divorce had
30 years experience and today has over 40 years knew the law and did not Intervene to insure
that there was a property settlement to protect her interests yet since that time she has bullied,
lied in court, lied in court documents, lied in Bankruptcy court involved with her attorneys at lying in
court, lying in court documents to the Supreme Court of Virginia. All Ilonas actions were with the
knowledgably intend inclusion of David to defraud Plaintiff.
That Rule 1:1 is not enforceable under the Due Process when the appearance of an inequitable
Judgment But, here we dont have an inequitable judgment we have no Property Settlement
along with statements of the Defendants attorney that without a Property Settlement the property
of 28 East Bellefonte should be considered Marital property and that should be split 50/ 50 ignoring
the how the Deed is worded. This statement in the Bankruptcy Court was supported by Divorce
attorney Ilona Grenadier Heckman who has intervened into this case to further defraud Plaintiff of
her rights to Properties that should be included in a property settlement. The properties include
where owned at the time of the Separation and the illegal Liquidation Agreement done between
David Grenadier and Ilona Grenadier to defraud Plaintiff of her rightful ownership due to her
financial and management work of properties which letters and other documents will show:

Further this is an on going Fraud by Divorce lawyer Ilona Grenadier Heckman with the
recent Sale of a Property called Bristow Road that she again signed as Trustee, yet she had
stolen from Sonia Grenadier the mother of Judge Albert Grenadier.

The memorandum Further goes on to say When reviewing a trial courts decision on
appeal, we view the evidence in the light of the most favorable to the prevailing party
granting it the benefit of reasonable inferences The Prevailing Party never went to court or
filed a Brief with this court. Favoritism and Cronyism was used in the back room decision
7

making by a Judge who did not have Jurisdiction. Statement is bias and shows the possible
discrimination of the court by ignoring the facts and the basis for an appeal.
The case was decided in a back room by Judge Clark who does not have personal Jurisdiction. That
Defendant has filed a suit in United States District Court For the District of Columbia that he is a
defendant in for:
VERIFIED COMPLAINT / CONSPIRACY
NOT A DOMESTIC PROBLEM AN AMERICAN PROBLEM
TREASON BY JUDGES, LAWYERS, ELECTED OFFICIALS, GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES, STATE EMPLOYEES
TO INTERFERE WITH CIVIL RIGHTS Title 18 U.S. Code 241 & 242; Title 42 U.S. Code 1981 & 1983 ILLEGEAL
ACTIONS - Attempt to harm Plaintiff and her Girls through DRUGS, RAPE & SLANDER of Plaintiff to prevent Due
Process, Judicial Misconduct, Criminal Misconduct, Discrimination for Religious, Social, Economic, Hierarch, Gang
Type Behavior Similar to the Klue Klux Klan, , Tampering with Evidence, Mail Fraud, Violating the Law and the Rules
of the Supreme courts, Violation of the Judicial Cannons, Obstruction of Justice, Fraud on the Court,

Judge Clark has subject-matter jurisdiction & territorial jurisdiction but not personal Jurisdiction.
Judge Clark took the place of Judge Donald Haddock (Best friend Judge Donald Kent who works
with the Virginia Legislator as to which Judges are approved) in January of 2012 as by all
appearance as a Thank you to Judge Haddock he refused to hear motions appropriately put on
the docket. The motions pertained to a Direct order from Supreme Court Justice Cynthia Kinser
whom had chosen Judge Potter from Prince William County to assure and assist the appearance
of Defendant and her witness in front of the Grand Jury to ask for a Special Grand Jury to look into
the discrepancy in Defendants case. Judge Haddock had stated in Court he was afraid that
Plaintiff would be talking about him and his actions in the Grand Jury. That Judge Clark has been
asked to recuse himself since the appearance of recusing himself in January of 2012. The Circuit
Court Judges of Alexandria recused themselves in the case of Julian Dawkins due to the
relationship of Judge Dawkins, they have now recused themselves in the Charles Severence case
due to the relationship of Ruth Ann Ladto being the daughter of Judge Giammitorio and the brother
of Judge Bob Giammittorio. Yet they are hearing this case and imposing irrational and unfair
Orders against Plaintiff. David Grenadier is the son of Judge Albert Grenadier and Ilona Grenadier
Heckman the widow of Judge Albert Grenadiers. That the letter written with an apology by Judge
Kloch states The appearance of Justice is just as important as Justice itself. In October of 2012
Judge Clark refused to recuse himself and awarded legal fees riddled with ex parte
communications in signed affidavit. He has allowed and supported attorneys lying in court, lying in
court documents. That in October of 2012 documents that had been appropriately filed in the
courts backing everything Defendant has said were held in Judges Chambers for 2 weeks. The
documents when Defendant went to check on her file were not in the file and when Defendant
8

asked where they were a representative from Judges chambers came down and said take them or
we will throw them out. On October 13, 2012 Defendant received her documents along with an
Order signed by Judge Clark, Judge Kemler who had recused herself in September of 2007 then
formally in October of 2011, Judge Dawkins who should have recused himself in the past formally
recused himself in October 2011 but, both Judges signed the Order dated October 12, 2012 that
reads Defendant is not allowed to file in the Circuit Court any documents pertaining to CHO10654
without permission, for only that case. Defendant still has the box of evidence unopened to be
opened in front of a Jury.
The City of Alexandria then to intimidate Defendant further filed charges against Janice for a
gutter hanging from the earth quake and for allowing a friend to park an RV in her drive way which
was totally legal. That Ben DiMuro in collusion with Commonwealth Attorney RandySengel
used Detective Pax of the City of Alexandria police to intimidate Janice with Extortion
charges which she proved she was retaliation and retribution for telling the Truth and was owed
the money.
In March of 2011 when JWG was on Travel the police, fire, ambulance came to 15 W. Spring St.
to break down the door luckily Defendants neighbors were home and were allowed to use a key
to let them in. Defendant was supposed to be dead in the home? Several neighbors can attest to
this. There is no police, fire or ambulance report on this. When that didnt work to intimidate and
scare JWG off, December of 2012 Mark/Michael Stuart as a friend of Ilonas was hired to drug
Janice and get inappropriate pictures or to rape one of the girls or to plant drugs on one of the
girls or in their home.
When that didnt work December of 2013 Ilonas BFF Loretta Lax Miller aka Muggy Cat aka
Billy Sullivan presidential candidate for 2016 in collusion sent this e-mail and started a blog riddled
with lies about Janice. This e-mail states Ilonas hate feelings about JWG being Catholic: Me and
My family had nothing to do with you and your girls because you raised them Catholic direct quote
from Ilona in May of 2008. Which is documented in the Appendix Exhibit 4 No 7 and Exhibit 5 A
& B, Exhibit 6. There are several other Hate emails from the Ilona Grenadier GANG which are
actions similar to the Klu Klux Klan.

9


That Ilona Grenadier Heckman a professional Divorce Lawyer and founding partner of Grenadier Starace Duffett &
Kiesler practicing law for over 40 years knew what she was doing when she used Neil Gurvitch a lawyer not
licensed in Virginia to do a Liquidation agreement that needed Janice Wolk Grenadiers signature for the substantial
amount of money that Janice Wolk Grenadier put into the properties owned during the marriage of David Grenadier
& Janice Wolk Grenadier. Ilona Grenadier at several points during the marriage acted as an attorney for Janice or
David and even wanting to control and have things her way wrote a property settlement. That Janice was
manipulated with knowledgably intend to harm by David and Ilona.

It is now known the marriage was a scheme to defraud. It was admitted David never loved Janice
and Janice was just right for the picture and David never wanted children. The knowledgeable
intend to defraud was always there, but the evidence and truth of the extend did not come out until
the talk of the Sale of 11713 Bristow Road, Manassas Va. April of 2014. The property sold by all
appearance with a cloud on the Title, which makes this a continuing Fraud from on or around
February 14, 1986 when Ilona Grenadier knowingly started with her lies to defraud Janice. That
Ilona admitted it was not David who stole the money which only left her to have stolen it from the
Sonia Grenadier Trust.
That a Divorce Attorney with Knowledgeable intend to defraud and at her finger tips Judges with
Chief Judge Haddocks declaration You cannot get a fair trial, we LOVE Ilona in 2008 after he
had chosen Judges that were his and Ilonas close friends. That Judge Clarks orders are and
should be VOID due to discrimination, unfairness, bias, prejudice and retaliation and
retribution for telling of the TRUTH which in America should be your best defense.
10

Plaintiffs have been discriminated against and treated with unfairness, bias and prejudice by this Court
and the opposing counsel. An uninterested, lay person, would question the partiality and neutrality of this
Court. Fairness of course requires an absence of actual bias in the trial of cases. But our system of law
has always endeavored to prevent even the probability of unfairness.In re Murchinson, 349 U.S. 133, 136
(1955) No man in this country is so high that he is above the law. No officer of the law may set that
law at defiance with impunity. All the officers of the government from the highest to the lowest, are
creatures of the law, and are bound to obey it. Butz v. Economou, 98 S.Ct. 2894 (1978); United States v.
Lee, 106 U.S. at 220, 1 S.Ct. at 261 (1882) Further it is the obligation of every Judge to honor, abide by,
and uphold not only the Constitution and laws of the State, but they are bound by the laws and Constitution
of the United States as well. State courts, like federal courts, have a constitutional obligation to
safeguard personal liberties and to uphold federal law. Stone v Powell, 428 US 465, 483 n 35, 96 S. Ct
3037, 49 L Ed. 2d 1067 (1976) Any judge who does not comply with his oath to the Constitution of the
United States, wars against that Constitution and engages in violation of the Supreme Law of the Land. If a
judge does not fully comply with the Constitution, then his orders are void, I n re Sawyer, 124 U.S. 200
(1888), he is without jurisdiction, and he/she has engaged in an act or acts of treason. U.S. v. Will, 449
U.S. 200, 216, 101 S. Ct. 471, 66 Ed.2d 392, 406 (1980); Cohens v. Virginia, 19 U.S. (6 Wheat) 264, 404, 5
L.Ed 257 (1821)
Further the appearance is Fraud on the court by Lawyers and Judges Whenever any officer of
the court commits fraud during a proceeding in the court, he/she is engaged in fraud upon the court. In
Bulloch v. United States, 763 F.2d 1115, 1121 (10th Cir. 1985), the court stated Fraud upon the court is
fraud which is directed to the judicial machinery itself and is not fraud between the parties or fraudulent
documents, false statements or perjury. It is where the court or a member is corrupted or influenced or
influence is attempted or where the judge has not performed his judicial function thus where the impartial
functions of the court have been directly corrupted.
Fraud upon the court has been defined by the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals to embrace that species of
fraud which does, or attempts to, defile the court itself, or is a fraud perpetrated by officers of the court so
that the judicial machinery can not perform in the usual manner its impartial task of adjudging cases that
are presented for adjudication. Kenner v. C.I .R., 387 F.3d 689 (1968); 7 Moores Federal Practice, 2d ed.,
p. 512, 60.23. The 7th Circuit further stated a decision produced by fraud upon the court is not in
essence a decision at all, and never becomes final.
Further the Memorandum goes on to say A pro se litigant appearing is no less bound by
the rules of procedure and substantive law then a defendant represented by counsel
11

Plaintiff has followed the Rules as the docket shows. It is the Defendants whom have ignored the
rules and the Laws of the Virginia Supreme Court, of the United States Constitution and the
Virginia Constitution. This statement is bias and slanderous to the Plaintiff.
That Judge Clark did not have Jurisdiction in his Order of October 3, 2013. That Judge Clark is
tainted per his actions as is the other Judges in the Circuit Court of Alexandria against Appellant.
That Judge Clark has ignored his Oath of Office, Cannons of Judicial conduct for the State of
Virginia and Rules of Professional Conduct of the Virginia State Bar since being sworn in by all
appearance a Pay Back for votes for him to tally more votes than the other applicants for position
as Judge in the Circuit Court of Alexandria.
The Facts are very clear in the documents filed and the appropriate fees Paid:
1. On or around June 26, 2013 through e-mail and phone messages Plaintiff tried to contact Defendants lawyer
and was ignored that Plaintiff was re-opening divorce for Fraud.

8. On or around Defendants mother ( Ilona Ely Freedman Grenadier Heckman widow of the
late Judge Albert Grenadier and a lawyer/Founding Partner of Grenadier, Anderson, Starace, Duffett &
Kiesler in the City of Alexandria. Represented as a Lawyer in the Washingtonian as a Big Player with
the Old Boys Network.

The Defendant ignored with his lawyer all opportunities to object to the Reopening of the
Divorce, the Subpoena or to point out any deficiencies. The City of Alexandrias clerks office
questioned Plaintiff, reviewed all documents prior to stamping them in, the Clerks confirmed
Plaintiff had the right to file in her Divorce case. The Clerks office after what was around hour of
waiting prior to being able to file, believes the Clerks office conferred with the Judges chambers..
The law is very clear a pro se litigant is to be given equal treatment if not special treatment,
especially in a case where the intervening Person is a lawyer and has the financial ability to
bring in as many powerful unscrupulous lawyers to defend her criminal actions.
"Pro se plaintiffs are often unfamiliar with the formalities of pleading requirements. Recognizing this,
the Supreme Court has instructed the district courts to construe pro se complaints liberally and to apply
a more flexible standard in determining the sufficiency of a pro se complaint than they would in
reviewing a pleading submitted by counsel. See e.g., Hughes v. Rowe, 449 U.S. 5, 9-10, 101 S.Ct. 173,
175-76, 66 L.Ed.2d 163 (1980) (per curiam); Haines v. Kerner, 404 U.S. 519, 520-21, 92 S.Ct. 594,
595-96, 30 L.Ed.2d 652 (1972) (per curiam); see also Elliott v. Bronson, 872 F.2d 20, 21 (2d Cir.1989)
(per curiam). In order to justify the dismissal of a pro se complaint, it must be " 'beyond doubt that the
12

plaintiff can prove no set of facts in support of his claim which would entitle him to relief.' " Haines v.
Kerner, 404 U.S. at 521, 92 S.Ct. at 594 (quoting Conley v. Gibson, 355 U.S. 41, 45-46, 78 S.Ct. 99,
102, 2 L.Ed.2d 80 (1957)). Fairness of course requires an absence of actual bias in the trial of cases. But our
system of law has always endeavored to prevent even the probability of unfairness. In re Murchinson, 349 U.S. 133,
136 (1955) No officer of the law may set that law at defiance with impunity. All the officers of the government from
the highest to the lowest, are creatures of the law, and are bound to obey it. Butz v. Economou, 98 S.Ct. 2894
(1978); United States v. Lee, 106 U.S. at 220, 1 S.Ct. at 261 (1882) Further it is the obligation of every Judge to
honor, abide by, and uphold not only the Constitution and laws of the State, but they are bound by the laws and
Constitution of the United States as well. State courts, like federal courts, have a constitutional obligation to safeguard
personal liberties and to uphold federal law. Stone v Powell, 428 US 465, 483 n 35, 96 S. Ct 3037, 49 L Ed. 2d 1067
(1976)
This is being restated because it is important that court recognizes the discrepancies in the Circuit
Court of Alexandria in Fairness to the Plaintiff.
Appellant desire to state orally to a panel of this Court the reasons why the Petition for
Appeal should be granted and wishes to do so in person.
