PLAINTIFF’S RESPONSE IN OPPOSITION TO DEFENDANTS DEBBIE HARMS, IRWIN HARMS AND BARRIE CROWE TO PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR REHEARING UNDER RULE NMRA 1-060 ON THE ILLEGAL AND COURT FRAUDULENT SUA SPONTE ORDER BY JUDGE ALAN MALOTT ON MAY 12, 2014 WHILE ALL ISSUES ARE CURRENTLY ON VALID AND LEGAL APPEAL IN THE NEW MEXICO SUPREME COURT; AND REQUEST FOR SEVERE SANTIONS UNDER NMRA RULE 1-011 AGAINST ATTORNEY FLOYD WILSON, BARRIE CROWE, DEBBIE HARMS AND IRWIN HARMS


COMES NOW the Plaintiff with his motion as stated above. This is simply a “legal matter” as obvious under the rules and prior case laws of “jurisdictional issues”. It is  both elementary and does not take a genius to understand that two separate court with different justices cannot have ongoing jurisdiction of the same case at the same time of the same issues, as obviously there would be different decisions at different times, disrupting stare decisis of use of previous cases used to determine the outcome, and there would then be two different decisions of the same case; then which one would be held as law? The appellate system under the Rules of Civil Procedure NMRA Rules 12 makes it very clear as does all case laws that when an appeal is taken, the trial court loses jurisdiction. Martinez v. Martinez, 101 NM 493, 684 P..2d 1158 (Ct. App. 1984) Notice of appeal divests trial court of jurisdiction even if technically defective even with lack of copy of judgment. In this matter, Judge Alan Malott “lied” to the court record in corruption of same to state in the order to close the case that Plaintiff David Derringer had not pursued any appeal, which is provably false in the court record itself, by the filed “Notice of Appeal”; “Docketing Statement” filed with this trial court, as well as the pleadings filed with the NM Court of Appeals and now resting with the New Mexico Supreme Court. Hence, it is provable that indeed David Derringer did appeal and that such appeal is not concluded with any remand to the trial court to close the case. Therefore, Judge Malott has no “jurisdiction” to sua sponte close the case at this time. Wagner Land  & Investment Co. v. Halderman,83 NM 628, 495  P.2d 1075 (1972) Trial court loses jurisdiction of the case upon filing of the notice of appeal, except for the purposes of perfecting such appeal,  or of passing upon a motion directed at the judgment  pending at the time of filing the notice of appeal. The trial court cannot even make any order of finding or conclusions, while and after the appeal has been taken. Davis v. Westland Development Co., 81 NM 296, 466  P.2d 862 (1970) Upon the filing of the notice of appeal, trial court loses jurisdiction  to make findings or conclusions.; Mirabal v, McKee, 74 NM 455, 394 P.2d 851 (1964) Upon the filing of the notice of appeal, trial court loses jurisdiction  to make findings or conclusions. In this case, the Plaintiff was persecuted for exercising his statutory rights under NMSA 38-3-3 to seek “justice to be served” and asked legally for this consolidated case to be changed to a different venue and different justice; a legal request mandated to be approved in a mandated hearing of the court. Instead, Judge Malott denied both the mandated hearing on NMSA 38-3-3 as well as illegally denied a change of venue for justice to be served, and punished the Plaintiff for exercising legal statutory rights under NM Statutory law and “sanctioned” the Plaintiff by unlawfully dismissing the cases under improper motives of fraud and corruption. No matter; the case was legally dismissed with Order that was “appealable” and not simply a verbal statement from the court, making the dismissal properly moved forward by Plaintiff David Derringer by a legal appeal, with the “blessing” of both trial courts before consolidation with status as “forma pauperis” meaning that the appeal process was mandated to proceed in forma pauperis throughout conclusion. Appeal was properly taken by the Plaintiff since a written appealable order was filed by the trial court. State ex rel. Reynolds v. McLean, 74 NM 178, 392 P.2d 12 (1964) Decision without entry of order. No appeal can be taken from announcement of district court where no order carrying  court's decision into effect was entered.
            It can be noted here, the obvious, that the Defendants Warren and Geraldine Crowe, with their attorney Alicia Santos, have not opposed the legal matter of this Motion for Reconsideration concerning only “jurisdiction”, because obviously those Defendants and attorneys know that the Plaintiff is only addressing a matter of law, and giving notice to the court that the law, case laws and Rules of Civil Procedure are mandated to be followed regarding “jurisdiction” to keep two courts from having jurisdiction of the same case at the same time over the same issues, which is precluded. Obviously, it is known by those Defendants and attorney, that while the NM Supreme Court has “jurisdiction” over the issues in appeal, Judge Malott cannot take jurisdiction without remand and cannot sua sponte close the case, and that this issue is properly brought before the court as a legal matter that must be resolved, lest disrupt the court record going to archive prematurely. State v. Arnold, 51 N.M. 311, 312,183 P.2d 845,845 (N.M. 1947) ("Lack of jurisdiction at any stage of a proceeding is a controlling consideration to be resolved before going further."). What is clear here, is that the motive to close the case is to stop further exposure of the issue of judicial bribery and corruption, of whom only the court itself and the party indicated in the bribery and influence of public corruption has an iron in this fire; those parties being only Judge Malott, Barrie Crowe, and Debbie Harms and Irwin Harms of underlying NAI Maestas and Ward Corporation, and not Warren and Geraldine Crowe. Hence, the court wants this matter to be hidden in archive as do parties associated with the corruption of Defendants and attorney Floyd Wilson that are involved in that part of the fraud and corruption, and the other Defendants have no issue with following the Rules of Civil Procedure to have the case remain open until remanded to a trial court only after all appeals are final. Judge Malott had already made up his mind without the mandated hearing when Plaintiff David Derringer had exercised his statutory rights NMSA 38-3-3 to seek “justice” by a change of venue and thus not only denied the mandated hearing, but decided in collusion with the attorney Floyd Wilson and Defendants Barrie Crowe, and Debbie Harms and Irwin Harms of underlying NAI Maestas and Ward Corporation to illegally “sanction” and punish Plaintiff David Derringer by a complete dismissal of the cases. Here, simultaneously, the Judge “sua sponte” decides to hide the case from further view in archive, and the Defendants and attorney involved in that corrupt matter immediately move forward to both accelerate and support that illegal decision, but also to further punish the Plaintiff by illegally seeking “sanctions” for bringing a legal “jurisdictional matter” before the court, as a further way to stop any exposure while again illegally persecuting the Plaintiff yet again. The Plaintiff is both right under “law” and proper to bring this jurisdictional issue before the court; not at all any “sanctionable act” under NMRA Rule 1-011. Meeker v. Walker 80 N.M. 280, 454 P.2d 762 (1969) “From and after the filing of the notice of appeal from a judgment, the trial court was without jurisdiction to take any further step in regard to the motion to alter or amend judgment.” The “sua sponte” act by the Judge was acting on a plan to hide this matter without hearing or notice for evaluation by either of the litigating parties, and for improper motives and purposes. “A reasonable and impartial mind is one which hears before it condemns, which proceeds on inquiry, and only renders a decision after hearing all the evidence.” Pacheco, 85 N.M. at 780, 517 P.2d at 1306. “If a judge represents, before a hearing, that he or she has made definite findings, it is an indication that the judge is not neutral .” Orquiz, 2003–NMCA–089, ¶ 16, 134 N.M. 157, 74 P.3d 91; see Purpura v. Purpura, 115 N.M. 80, 83, 847 P.2d 314, 317 (Ct.App.1993) (“[A] fair and impartial tribunal requires that the trier of fact be disinterested and free from any form of bias or predisposition regarding the outcome of the case.” (internal quotation marks and citation omitted)). W.G. v. Senatore, 18 F.3d 60. What is happening here, is that it is easily being narrowed down by the actions of the responsible parties where the corruption lies; and that is the Judge and the specific Defendants with attorney Floyd Wilson. The “law” is clear and on the side of the Plaintiff, which is not opposed by the other Defendants and the attorney not directly involved in the bribery, but even with the concerted effort by the Judge and some Defendants and attorney cannot confer “jurisdiction” to close the case while an appeal is pending. “Neither court by exercising its inherent equitable discretion, nor parties by entering into stipulation, can confer jurisdiction where none has been authorized.” Terrel v. Duke City Lumber Co., 86 N.M. 405, 524 P.2d 1021 (Ct. App. 1974 aff’d in part reversed in part 88 N.M. 299, 540 p.2d 229 (1975) “Trial court loses jurisdiction when appeal taken-although this rule applies to the district courts, the court of appeals correctly entertained this motion as the trial court could not have considered it, having lost jurisdiction by reason of the appeal.” The law has been set on this matter long before these cases and must be enforced with abidance by the justice; the trial court has no options regarding this matter.
REQUEST FOR SEVERE SANTIONS UNDER NMRA RULE 1-011 AGAINST ATTORNEY FLOYD WILSON, BARRIE CROWE, DEBBIE HARMS AND IRWIN HARMS
            Attorney Floyd Wilson, Barrie Crowe, Debbie Harms And Irwin Harms know that the Plaintiff David Derringer simply brought up the necessary legal jurisdictional matter to keep two courts from entertaining the same case at the same time, all of which is entirely supported by the laws presented by the Plaintiff, and thus is asinine to “oppose” when the attorney should also be supporting the “law” and the Rules of Civil Procedure; proper and timely brought under NMRA Rule 1-060. Schutts v. Bentley Nevada Corp., 966 F. Supp 1549 “D. Nev. 1997 Lawyer’s duty is to act in accordance with rules of substantive law and rules of Civil Procedure.” Attorney Floyd Wilson knows that it is premature to close this case and is aware that issues of this case are on appeal with the NM Supreme Court. He is dutifully bound to inform his clients of this legal matter of “jurisdiction of a trial court pending appeal”. Deadwyler v. Volkswagenof America Inc., 134 FRD 128 affirmed 966 F.2d 1443 cert. denied 113 Supreme Court 415, 506 US 956, 121 Led.2d 339 “WDNC 1991 Absolute obligation to communicate, effectively and accurately, is a duty which lawyer owes to his adversaries and court, as well as to his client.” Clearly, here, the attorney Floyd Wilson and his clients agree to both defy the law and Rules of Civil Procedure to keep further exposure of this matter from any public eye, in motives of deceit, improper procedure, increase in the costs of the litigation, and to have “improper purposes” in a pleading meant to disrupt and not conform to law, instead of support of law, even if that pleading should be opposed to the judge’s sua sponte erroneous decision. Instead, in collusion with the known illegal decision without jurisdiction to hide and conceal the case in archive by prematurely dismissing the case, the particular Defendants and attorney Floyd Wilson intend to mis-use the courts once again to punish and persecute the Plaintiff in “fraud”; very actions that mandate “sanctions” against both the attorney and each of his clients for such “malicious prosecution”. Attorney Floyd Wilson knows that he is effectively collaborating with the Judge in a decision that is in legal error, and made to prejudice the Plaintiff, and then seeks “sanctions” as a way to shut up the Plaintiff as well as punish the Plaintiff for noticing the court of a legal matter that the court has to address under law. Application of Mosher, 830 F. Supp. 403 reversed 25 F.3d 397 “WD Mich. 1993 Attorney cannot violate Rules of Professional Conduct and then attempt to avoid consequences of his violation by claiming ignorance.” (Reference R.of Prof. Conduct 16-304(C)) In this matter, “sanctions” cannot be awarded against the Plaintiff, but are mandated to be severely assessed against the select Defendants and their particular attorney. Hamer v. Career College Ass’n, 978 F.2d 758 “CA9 (Cal.) 1992 Rule 11 sanctions should be based upon attorney’s signed “pleading, motion, or other paper” F. R. Civ. P. Rule 11, 28 USCA. Obviously, the acts by Judge Malott and conspiracy to facilitate by the Defendants Barrie Crowe, Debbie Harms and Irwin Harms with attorney Floyd Wilson constitute “obstruction of justice” trying to hide issues that are fraud and corruption in cahoots with each other. US v. Kanchanalak, 37 F. Supp.2d 1 “Statute defining “corruptly”, as “acting with an improper purpose, personally influencing another, including making a false, misleading statement, or withholding, concealing, altering, or destroying a document or other information.”. The burden is on Judge Malott to prove that there is no ongoing appeal, which is ludicrous as he is noticed constantly by the higher courts as to the constant disposition of these cases, which at this time there has yet been no ruling on the matter of the illegal denial of forma pauperis by the NM Court of Appeals trying to deny due process and block David Derringer’s appeal in conspiracy to stop “forma pauperis” as a sabotage vehicle to stop further exposure of the underlying corruption; one judge protecting another judge regardless of the law involved. Simply put, the attorney Floyd Wilson and his particular clients should stay clear of this legal jurisdictional issue; but they have a stake in the outcome, so disregard law to push forward unlawfully; which mandates “sanctions” under Rule 1-011.
            RULE 11 STANDARDS NMRA 0-11 provides:  The signature of (a)... party constitutes a certificate by the signer that the signer has read the pleading, motion or other paper: that to the best of the signer’s knowledge, information and belief there is good ground to support it; and that it is not interposed for delay....For a willful violation of this rule (a)...party may be subjected to appropriate disciplinary or other action.   In adopting an abuse of discretion standard for the review of an award of sanctions, the Supreme Court stated:  “A court may exercise its discretion and impose sanctions for a willful violation of the rule when it finds, for example, that a pleading or other paper signed by an attorney is not well grounded in fact, is not warranted by existing law or a reasonable argument for its extension, or is interposed for an improper purpose.”  The primary goal of Rule 11 is to deter baseless filings in district court...Although the rule should be read in light of concerns that it will spawn satellite litigation and chill vigorous advocacy, an interpretation must give effect to the rules’s central purpose of deterrence. Id.; see also White v. General Motors Corp. 908 P.2d 675, 683 (10th Cir. 1990) (sanctions are intended to deter future litigation abuse, punish present litigations abuse, compensate victims of litigation abuse, and streamline court dockets and facilitate case management); Invest Fin. Group. Inc. v. Chem-Nuclear Sys., Inc., 815 P.2d 391, 404 (6th Cir.), cert. denied, 484 U.S. 927, 108 S. Ct. 291, 98 L.Ed.2d 251 (1987). In this matter, the attorney and his clients know that their opposition is “against” law and has no support of law of legal jurisdiction of a trial court having no ability to move until the appeal is final, so purposes are both improper and “fraudulent” to oppose law and then ask for “sanctions” against the litigant attempting to support the law. The court has no ability legally to “sanction” David Derringer for bringing the law of jurisdiction to the table, as it can be easily seen that the “opposition” to law is to harass the Plaintiff and seek the judge to make further unjust decisions to persecute the Plaintiff for lawful litigation under appropriate Rules.  Fed. R. Civ. P. Rule 11(b): Representations to Court. “By presenting to the court (whether by signing, filing, submitting, or later advocating) a pleading, written motion, or other paper, an attorney or unrepresented party is certifying that to the best of the person’s knowledge, information and belief, formed after an inquiry reasonable under the circumstances, (1) it is not being presented for any improper purpose, such as to harass or to cause unnecessary delay or needless increase in the cost of litigation.” United Nuclear Corp. V. General Atomic Co.  96 N.M. 155, 629 P.2d 231 (1980) “ In imposing stringent sanctions, court are free to consider the general deterrent effect their orders may have on the instant case and on other litigation.” ; Invst Fin Group. Inc. v. Chem-Nuclear Sys., Inc. 815 P.2d, 391, 404 (6th Cir.), cert. denied, 484 U.S. 927, 108 S. Ct. 291, 98 L.Ed.2d 251 (1987) goals of Rule 11 are deterrence and punishment of offenders and compensation of their opponents for expenditure of time and resources responding to ill-founded pleadings and other papers. Rivera v. Brazos Lodge Corp.   111 N.M. at 959 (1991). Rivera v. Brazos Lodge Corp.   111 N.M. at 959.(goals of Rule 11 are deterrence and punishment of offenders and compensation of their opponents for expenditure of time and resources responding to ill-founded pleading and other papers).   “The primary purpose of Rule 1-011 NMRA 2000 is to deter baseless filings in the district court by testing the conduct of counsel”. Rivera v. Brazos Lodge Corp.   111 N.M. 670, 674, 808 P.2d 955, 959 (1991). “An objective of Rule 1-011 is to promote good faith and honesty in pleading.” Rivera v. Brazos Lodge Corp.   111 N.M. 670, 674, 808 P.2d 955, 959 (1991). “A violation depends on what the attorney or litigant knew and believed at the relevant time, and involves the question of whether the litigant or attorney was aware that a particular pleading should not have been brought.” Rivera v. Brazos Lodge Corp.  111 N.M. 670, 674, 808 P.2d 955, 959 (1991). Attorney Floyd Wilson deliberately misleads the court that there is no legal issue here, when in fact the issue of “jurisdiction” if a controlling legal issue of law. The “misrepresentation” is not inadvertent error, but for ulterior motives and improper purposes, making the attorney as liable for sanctions and his clients. Rivera v. Brazos Lodge Corp., 111 N.M. 670, 808 P.2d 955 (1991) Sanctions should be entered against an attorney rather than a party for violation of the “good ground” requirement of this rule only when a pleading or other paper is unsupported by existing law rather than unsupported by facts.; New York State National Org. for Women v. Terry, 732 F Supp. 388 “SDNY 1990 Attorneys do not possess immunity from sanctions for their conduct in judicial proceedings so as to preclude imposition of Rule 11 sanctions pursuant to rules enabling act. Fed. Rules of Civil Procedure 11, 28 USCA, 28 USCA 2072."
CONCLUSION
            “Sanctions” cannot be requested by the Defendants and Attorney Floyd Wilson for bringing law and the Rules of Civil Procedure before a court, when the law supports entirely the Motion to keep judicial errors to a minimum by the Plaintiff, as well as the “opposition” to law is in error by the Attorney and his clients. Clearly this “opposition” was not meant to preserve law and enforce the Rules of Civil Procedure but for ulterior motives that only the Judge and these select Defendants and attorney support in fraud and corruption. Hence, legally the court cannot punish the Plaintiff for raising a jurisdictional issue, but is mandated to “sanction” the Attorney Floyd Wilson and Defendants Barrie Crowe, Debbie Harms and Irwin Harms in deceit of the court, and improper motives of “obstruction of justice”, public corruption, and to taint the court record. Defendants asking for “sanctions” are meant only to harass the Plaintiff and have no purpose to enforce the law. Sanctions against Attorney Floyd Wilson and Defendants Barrie Crowe, Debbie Harms and Irwin Harms are appropriate entirely to stop the instant violations of law and to deter those similarly situated from mis-using the courts in malicious prosecution in the future. Altenhaus v. Louison, 342 Mass. 773, 172 NE.2d 230. It is essential that two elements are present, (1) the existence of an ulterior motive; and (2) an act in the use of process other than such as would be proper in the regular prosecution of the charge. The ulterior motive here is to hide judicial bribery. “Ulterior motive is sufficient” to show and gain damages for abuse of process. Brown v. Robertson, 120 Ind. App. 434, 92 NE.2d 856; Earl v. Winne, 34 NJ Superior court 605, 112 A.2d 791. This case justifies an action for malicious prosecution “AND” an action for abuse of process, the two actions distinguished by the “facts”. The abuse of process in this matter will hold even though the process has been validly issued, and regardless of whether there was probable cause for its issuance, or whether any prior proceeding has terminated in favor of the Plaintiff. Ash v. Cohn, 119 NML 54, 194A 174. The select Defendants asking in fraud for the court to punish by sanctions the Plaintiff for obeying laws already established in a “perversion of the court process”. Wright v. Harris, 160 NC 542, 76 SE 489.
            Plaintiff David Derringer requests of this court to sanction under the guidelines of NMRA Rule 1-011 attorney Floyd Wilson and Barrie Crowe, Debbie Harms and Irwin Harms each collectively and separately for an amount of $18,000.00 each for mis-use of the courts to violate law and to support public corruption, and their attempt to persecute and punish the Plaintiff for bringing a legal question before the court involving “jurisdiction” of a trial court while an appeal is pending. Lowe v. Bloom, 112 NM 203, 813 P.2d 480 (1991); In Rivera v.Brazos Lodge Corp., 111 N.M. 670, (1991), the trial court awarded sanctions in excess of $18,000.00 because of the violations of Rule 11.
