One can go to state supreme

crucial issue is up: Can a

exact prodecure is NOT followed
Calapp3 said yes. Who are they
protecting? Take your best shot. Gray Davis and every

perly sworn.in reply to: CDAA Conduct #2889Answer to Bluejay’s question below: Maybe me.
in reply to: CDAA Conduct #2890When I read the news, I just shook my head in dismay. It isn’t because we didn’t win (I think we did, regardless)…it is because all this stupid crap gets in the way.
(Everyone knows the CDAA’s prosecution of the mine and MMM was faulty…heck they know it, so do all the justices.)
What bugs me most is why all of a sudden the shift goes back to the money instead of the fight for our ability to mine gold without obstruction of justice. Yes, I know…always follow the money. But, “#%$^%&#!!” doesn’t the whole idea of what happened bug you?
I realize that mining gold means mining money…it’s the whole reason anyone goes into business. But when the concept of conducting an honorable business is assaulted (we are talking about the most volitile of all, to date, throughout history…gold), do we just cave when we’re being fleeced?
Never forget the scams and the competition by everyone trying to exploit and sell the latest snake oil, (or for that matter the latest gold discovery)….hello global warming caused by man….
Next thing we’ll hear is that fighting the CDAA was all a sham, and crap and crap.
Whatever happened to the honor of doing the right thing?

Now that your quest to sue the CDAA has failed, how much will that decision be costing the shareholders?
in reply to: Clips from Alleghany #2886“The 1000 foot level, you ask. It’s just bad ground. That’s, why it’s taking so long. No, let me restate that. It is nasty ground. It is the nastiest ground I’ve seen on a rehab job in the whole mine.” Ian Haley.
“We’re going as fast as we can go. We have no choice but to support the ribs and back as soon as the muck is removed. We’re putting in rock bolts and mat plus timber stulls up dip where the rock has slid away. It’s been like this the entire length of the cave in.” Ernie Locatelli
“Disappointed isn’t strong enough. Nothing in the maps or old records indicated the presence of this wall rock on the level. Also, I talked to a miner who remembered the level being clear and without much timbering. We didn’t expect this and therefore expected to get to the 1064 winze before now. Time is money and we don’t have much of either. It’s not that the work is overly difficult. It’s just tedious.” Michael Miller
Scoop gets the picture from these three miners. Between the three they have ninety-eight years of underground mining experience.

Gold/Silver Ratio 50.77In the past few days Lars Lindgren from Norway has forecast a $70 price for light crude oil in July versus a last price of $62.37.
Just today David Galland from CaseyResearch.com did a story on oil’s potential at 321.com.
What was most interesting in the article was a chart displaying the proportional price relationship of gold to oil prices since 1946. The chart specifically compares domestic west Texas intermediate oil to the London gold price.Up until 1999 gold and oil pretty much followed each other with the exception of the lead volatility of the oil prices at times. During the years of 1999 and 2000 the oil price exploded from about $11 a barrel to close to $35 a barrel. During that same period gold was in about a $250 to $275 price range, basically a sleep. Of course this was the same time of the infamous English Treasury gold sales. Were these sales part of a western central bank master plan to keep gold under water as the rising oil prices were screaming, inflation ahead?
The chart is worth viewing as it clearly shows from 2004 to present that gold stopped following higher oil prices. Is oil to high or is gold too low? Lars Lindgren says oil will advance over the next two months. David Galland draws the senario of gold at $100 a barrel if hostilities break out between the U.S and Iran.
When will gold’s price be released from the chains of western central bankers and their funny ideas? There are super rich people in the world today that understand, in U.S. dollars, that gold is super cheap compared to oil and are quietly and methodically acquiring it.

Gold/Silver Ratio 50.77The gold market is wound up fairly tight with buyers and sellers flexing their muscles as each side approaches the other’s lines of defense. The key element in this market is resistance in the 690-700 zone and evolving support in the 660-665 area. Gold’s celebrated $15 weakness on Thursday couldn’t carry through into the next day as buyers found gold attractive near the 665 area and bid it higher, closing the precious metal at 670.10 for the day.
What has gone generally unnoticed is gold is establishing a growing firm footing on the chart in the 660-665 area. According to Blanchard $ Company there has been massive European central bank sales recently. Gold has stood firm in this area for the past three weeks. The probabilities are increasing that gold will soon mount the 700 area.
in reply to: Clips from Alleghany #2882To answer the question below: Mike bought a new Nikon D200 camera. It’s a beauty. We can expect more pictures in the future.
One more week of mucking the 1000-foot level and breaking rock on and below the 800-foot level. One sack of gold was checked into inventory. It offers the miners continued belief in the spot they are working but not much more. Sometimes there isn’t much to report. The 1000- level crew should be at the last known cave in by next Thursday. It appears to be material that fell onto the level when a seam of gouge gave way. This makes a difficult clearing process (compared to a cave in from an old stope or raise). The dangers are similar. The idea is either to remove all the loose rock or stabilize the rock as the level is cleared. It is impossible to determine the length of this next obstacle or the time to finally open the level. Good luck, boys

Gold/Silver Ratio 51.31Gold got spanked pretty good today, selling off $15 in New York while closing at about $665. Comments at the Barrick Gold annual meeting on May 2nd propelled gold upwards to hit about $690 three days later. Since Tuesday, it’s all been all downhill.
This declining phase has all the earmarks of your friendly little miscreants at work again. If they are going to take gold down farther then you should be buying the metal in earnest, not being scared into selling it.
These people aim to freighten you and drive you out of your gold coins and gold stocks. It is certain that some people have given in already. Free markets in this country are a thing of the past.
Don’t let the miscreants use their controlled markets to blind you to the truth. James Sinclair is the most successful gold investor in the world and he says gold is going to $1650 and that’s all you need for courage as these market bandits attempt to steal from you.

near me in Yuba City.in reply to: CDAA Conduct #2877We received the Oral Argument in Miller et al v. Filter et al., Case # C051696 at the Court of Appeal Third Appellate District. If you would like to hear the session, contact us by e-mail, phone or letter. All the addresses or numbers are on this web site. There is no cost for this CD.
I just listened to the CD. If you know nothing about the facts of this suit, the concept of absolute immunity, the purpose of the anti-SLAPP legislation or the state of the judicial system in California or the United States, you may be bored, confused, angry, disappointed or reassured in your beliefs about the law and those we have officially allowed to practice it as “Officers of the Court”.
The normal time allowed for oral argument is fifteen minutes. Klaus asked the Court for an additional ten minutes, which was granted. He had a lot of information to provide the Court that had occurred after the written briefs were submitted. It is noteworthy that Klaus was interrupted at least 48 times by the panel of judges. It is even more noteworthy that the judges spoke for about fifteen minutes in presenting either their questions or expressing their opinions.
If you know much about the case as I do as do others, you will arrive at some conclusions about this panel of judges. It is noteworthy that the presiding justice, Arthur G. Scotland said, “we are governed by statute” (between 36:28 and 37:47). I look forward to the written decision.
Your comments are welcomed in the FORUM or sent to me.
in reply to: Clips from Alleghany #2876It’s more than a spring shower today. It is a pouring rain at about 36 degrees. Yesterday was a warm one. A logging truck slipped into a ditch going up Hell’s Half Acre Road. The driver got lost in Alleghany, something rather difficult to do. The owner called the mine for help. Mike drove the Cat 966 loader from the lower portal through town and up the dirt road. Ian took over and pulled the fully loaded log truck out of the ditch until the driver got enough traction to get the *#^&* out of town. Monday another log truck flipped on Stud Horse Grade. The driver was air evacuated to the hospital. A major clearing plan and timber harvest started near Alleghany. During March we could hear the helicopter used to transport logs to a landing throughout the daylight hours. Scoop had to check it out. The chopper was former president Nixon’s. The inside was completely striped but it is a very impressive machine and fun to watch.
Other Unusual Happenings Today. Trucks from Oregon headed down the mine road this morning with three or four guys inside. They came to move a gold concentration machine that the mine bought for $65,000 over ten years ago. It’s headed to their gold mine in Grants Pass. Their operation unexpectedly hit some free milling gold which was not being recovered with the existing flow sheet. Their company rented the machine for five weeks to keep the mill flowing without the loss.
Did Scoop ever tell you about the guy from Marin County with the gemstones and minerals buried by Sir Francis Drake? It is a fine story. Mike got a phone call from a stranger last spring with a plausible but wild story. He had dug thousands of pounds of “treasure” and needed a place to separate the rare minerals from waste. Mike agreed to help him as long as he paid the bills. They built a rock screening plant, which belongs to the mine when his screening is completed and have processed about forty tons of stuff. His bills to date total $38,645. His balance is $7,120. He arrived about noon in a U-Haul truck to take 500 pounds back to Marin County to evaluate and sell. The project will be completed before the June shareholder meeting. Everyone has a dream or so it seems.
Oh, the mine! The big cave-in on the 1000 level is almost gone. The level is blocked 200 feet ahead with what is believed to be the last cave-in. Fingers are crossed that it will be removed within two to three weeks. The track is holding up. The dump pocket is not full but the tramming time to dump the ore cars is increasing. There are no other down-dip workings to shorten the distance. All utilities are in place to the face and will be extended to the 1064 winze once the level is clear. Then the crew will seek out the gold.
The final draft of the annual report is in the printer’s hands. It will be in the mail by May 21, 2007. Shareholders will like the back cover. A new map of the current active working was drawn. The map will be a great help for those interested in following the summer activities underground.

Over the years several brokers and even our market maker at the Pacific Exchange tried to track down who was doing the trading. To no avail.
My suggestion is that those who have the means should be buying OSTO so that the price will move up to reflect the true value. At the current price there is little to lose.
In other words since this ticker symbol is out there can we use it? Can people sell as well as buy? Bluejay???
Here’s my disclaimer: This is not a recomendation to buy or sell Sixteen to One Stock. You do so at your own risk. My opinions are my own and do not reflect the opinion of the Corporation.

What a jerk! This is pure stealing.
I can’t imagine letting 300 shares trade there when a
better market exists in Alleghany. He knew we had a
much higher bid because you told him. Now he’ll try
and sell it on the X-Mart, probably through one of his
family members or one of his friends.He bought the 300 shares for a total of 3 cents, if
you can believe that.”Does anyone know what to do about this? It isn’t right to let our fellow shareholders get screwed like this and it is not good for the company either.

in reply to: Clips from Alleghany #2870Ian says he can see the end of the blockage at the face of the rehab on the 1000 level. Twenty-five to go. Let’s not get too excited. One more cave-in is about 100 feet away. This one should be easier to remove. When the miners were on the 1064 winze side of it, they could hear the miners working a couple of hundred feet away. Also smoke was visible from a blast. The level still requires stulls, posts and lagging on the up-dip side. The old timers actually had timbered the area twice, as evidenced by the debris.
The newest heading is called the 1020 North Wing Raise. A numbering program has existed at the Sixteen to One mine for many years. Even numbers from the Tightner Shaft begin with the level (600 or 800 or 1000) and are designated to the north. Odd numbers go south. So, the 1020 raise goes up from the 1000 level and is pretty close to the Tightner Shaft. The crew is clearing the level to reach the 1064 winze (farther to the north). The 1016 Raise connects with the 800 level and the new heading is headed north, hence its name. Expect Scoop to report gold from this heading in the near future. If not expect Scoop to report about some very discouraged miners.
For all you readers who like more than mine talk, something very troubling happened at the office last week. The entire internal networking program and the Internet service failed on Monday. Rae and Kyle traced the problem to the router. The router failed because it was a favorite bathroom spot for the office cats. Kyle found a replacement and shouts of joy echoed down Main Street on Thursday, when the UPS truck pulled into the parking lot.

At some point in our history the criminal prosecution industry convinced legislators that for prosecutors to perform their duty, they need a cover of protection. This cover of protection evolved into what is now called “absolute immunity”. The rational for this very unusual social protection is grounded in the theory that prosecutors must be completely shielded from accountability for their mistakes, illegal behavior and all other real or alleged behavior during the course of executing their job. All of this is necessary, as advocates proclaimed, in order to serve the public interest. The time has come, no the time is long overdue, to toss this fallacious and cavalier position that law breaking lawyers or even malicious lawyers are shielded from the abuses they cause their victims
Will the three-judge panel continue to perpetuate the myth or will they render a decision that truly is in the public’s best interest? Perhaps we will know soon. Not only will the judges abide illegal behavior with a verdict against Original Sixteen to One Mine, they will emasculate the decision from one of their fellow judges most familiar with the case in Sierra County. No other member of the California State Bar or former members in the courtroom (and there were five) judged the facts, the law or the evidence, as did Superior Court Judge Stanley Young. He made the right decision. He said that the defendants did not meet the threshold necessary to prevail in an anti-SLAPP motion. He denied the motion.
Sacramento: 2pm.
The State appellate Court is on the South side of a circle and west of the State capitol building. The courtroom has low light and plenty of well-preserved wood. It is a friendly courtroom, not the least bit intimidating. It also is somewhat circular. The judges are elevated and the advocates sit at a long table with a podium between them. The public has access to about thirty chairs that are also in a half moon shape. Metal detectors and armed patrolmen are at the entrance. Once court is called into session, an armed guard sits close to the panel. God bless America. What a judicial legacy we are leaving our children!As I looked around the room I counted twenty-five people: twenty came in support of the mine’s position, one was a newspaper journalist and the rest were participants in the next case or students watching the system at work. We were the first case scheduled, right about 2pm. Klaus Kolb represented Original Sixteen to One Mine and Tom Knox represented the appellant. Mr. Knox went first. After the session I learned that I was not the only one who could not hear or understand his statements. A shareholder sitting on the right front side said he could not hear him and there was a recording device with a volume monitor that barely moved. He offered nothing new beyond the words in his brief. The judges questioned him but most of us later could only comment on his body language not the content of his words.
When Klaus got up to speak, everyone in the room could hear him. That simple conduct helped us and honored our effort to make the trip to Sacramento. Everyone drove a long way to see the system at work. One thing stood out for everyone. Klaus lost a significant amount of his time by lengthy and somewhat unnecessary questions by the judges. Therefore, Klaus spent much of his time responding and was unable to present the new responses he prepared after Mr. Knox slammed the Court with a bunch of cases in his last brief. Few if any of the points of Knox’s last brief were on point with our case. I hope the judges have hired smart and energetic clerks to read the cases.
The people in the room were really interesting to me. I drove down with two directors and the owner/publisher of the Mountain Messenger. George Gilmour’s wife and George’s life long friend and confidant drove up from Richmond and Sonoma. Shareholders and other mine owners were sprinkled around the room. Our great advocate at the hearing in January 2003, Tom Crary drove down from Colfax (See web-site “NEWS” 04/02/2003). He may have been the most experienced lawyer in the courtroom, having been a deputy district attorney in San Francisco at one time in his career. After the session he offered some insight for the hoard of us milling around on the courthouse steps. When parties or interested supporters of a party leave a courtroom hearing, a couple of things take place almost every time. We all stand around and ask, “What happened in there? Who won?’’
Tom pointed out and we all agreed that Klaus was able to get in the record our unanimous position that the anti-SLAPP motion was an improper motion. No one felt completely comfortable in speculating how the decision would go. As a high-grade gold miner I suggested we would prevail because one judge said that the appellate court must follow the law. At least my raw optimism brought a laugh. It is an uncontested fact that there is no written appointment on record in Sierra County. It is required by the State legislature! Defendants were not appointed according the law. My optimism is probably in the minority. Others felt that the judges might opt to keep absolute immunity, unfettered by the individual facts of our case. (You know, for the public good.) Hog wash! Law breaking prosecutors do not serve the public, and if Californians choose to allow this to happen, politicians continue to control the judicial branch of our government. Anyway, and this must always stay at the front of the discussion, IMMUNITY IS NOT THE ISSUE. Mr. Knox is very clever to shift his defense to a broad absolute immunity approach, which is not the issue. My position is this: if Californians know the legal abuses (provable in our case,) that exist in our state in the twenty-first century, they will demand a change. I’m not willing to wager a bet on this decision but I will wager that change is in the wind.
in reply to: CDAA Conduct #2866I’ll be leaving Alleghany soon, destination Sacramento and the Court of Appeals. My truck will have a full load with fellow directors and a journalist. A dozen people have plans to attend the oral arguments. Even with nothing to do today, I still have those butterflies of apprehension.
Klaus called last night. He is ready but continues to spend time on the cases Tom Knox lists as evidence supporting his pleadings. Most are not on point. The defendants’ strategy from the beginning has been to bury us in paper. Klaus has the integrity, education and judicial righteousness to go far in his profession. Never have we discussed a tactic or strategy that is unlawful, immoral or beyond the behavior one would expect from officers of the Court.
I brought Klaus up to date on my recent activities. You may as well know too because all aspects of this case must become public for public outrage necessary to change illegal practices of certain lawyers. America has had enough! It costs the country a fortune in every segment of our economy.
The Amicus Brief filed by my Attorney General really irritated me. It supports law-breaking behavior. It defies common sense and is a major breach of legal ethics by our elected leader. Mr. Lockyer. Perhaps he was not aware of the actions by his subordinates. Someone associated with the defendants may have coerced actions. Nevertheless, the AG’s review of the facts was shoddy or at least superficial. Each and every person who signed off on this brief is responsible for its conclusion. With this in mind, I set forth a plan in November 2006 to have the Amicus Brief withdrawn. Jerry Brown would take office in January. He must become aware of this case. The responsibility is now his; however, if he does not know that the amicus brief was filed, his responsibility is diminished. I took steps to inform him and they were successful. I waited and waited to hear from the AG’ office. Nothing. I admire Jerry Brown. He went to Jesuit school with George. Politically, the Amicus Brief is on the wrong side and Jerry Brown knows politics. What’s next?
Monday I set out to contact the highest officials in the AG’s office. I started with Jerry Brown. I talked with his secretary in Oakland, laid out my position and detailed why the AG should get involved. She understood and would respond. During the process of finding the highest people, I talked with Manny Maderar’s secretary. After pouring out the reasons for the AG’s office to pull the Amicus Brief and potential consequences of the highest public officers of the Court sanctioning serious law breaking lawyers claiming its “in the public’s best interest”, I asked her to have Mr. Maderar phone me. Well. a short time later he did just that.
It was a great discussion. We actually discussed the brief and the case. He pulled up our web site and we discussed the language of the brief and other points. Mr Maderar is the State Solicitor General and one of his duties is to approve all Amicus Briefs. I told him that I was sad that my attorney general would side with these defendants. The situation in North Carolina was discussed. He didn’t know what he could do at this time. I said that he could pull the brief and that each and every top executive has the responsibility to take an action immediately upon learning that a prior decision was incorrect. He said, “Well. I guess I have some reading to do.” We will know later today his decision.
The Judges will not rule today. We can expect a decision in thirty days or so.
in reply to: CDAA Conduct #2867I guess I’m the initial, not by design, but because all of us are right now sorting things out in our heads. I’ll wait a while to pontificate, as it’s out of our hands now and into the honor of the courts to figure.
Klaus, you have stepped to the plate, along with truth and honor and intent of the law. Your (our) position never swayed from the intent of the Constitution. Passion is the ally of truth, and you stood up with truth behind you.
Right now, we’re all digesting the gravity of the setting. Heavy-duty. Many questions within the boundaries of intent and procedure. Klaus held to the principals of the case, my personal pride: in short, true Constitutional authority and the administration of true Constitutional authority.
Mostly, I was struck by the burden of proof today…it seemed to be placed upon Klaus, rather than the CDAA, the appellants.
Who was appealing today?

From AMEInfo.com, Dubai
Sunday, April 15, 2007“Recommending gold stocks, Dubai’s AMEInfo cites GATA”
The following are excerpts from this article:
“Gold is the only true currency and fiat paper currencies like the US dollar devalue against this store of value in times of inflation. But there is a tipping point point at which the gradual shift away from the US dollar will become a rout as holders of the US currency seek an alternative.
…$3,000 an ounce
Then gold will start a rapid ascent in value, back towards an inflation-adjusted, all-time high of around $3,000. Supporters of GATA pressure group maintain that it is only the central bank collusion that keeps gold prices low, and that collusion is breaking down with even the IMF now actively canvassing rule changes to make a more transparent market.
…Golden juniors
Also junior mining and exploration companies with claims may find that their modest assets suddenly zoom up in value as producers seek new sources of gold and bid up their value.
This is where the hundred-fold increases will be found in the next gold boom, as in the late 1970’s, although the metal itself and the bigger companies will provide very large rewards at a time when other asset classes may struggle to deliver returns.
in reply to: CDAA Conduct #2858As Klaus once again presents the truth this coming Wednesday in the long-overdue exposure of the CDAA’s vigilante attempted lynching of law-abiding citizens and their attempt to derail a legitimate business for political advantage, an obvious OUTRAGEOUS fact remains staring us all in the face:
There is no question on either side that the CDAA cheated in court, in the Grand Jury, because their entire appeal is based not on pretending they didn’t cheat, but that they were ALLOWED to mislead the Grand Jury because they claim immunity from any resultant attempt to expose them.
WHAT? Let me try that again, paraphrasing as if I were a CDAA lawyer, presenting the ground for appeal:
“Okay, we left out exculpatory evidence in charging the mine and Mike Miller and Johnathon Farrell with manslaughter, and yeah, the case was tossed out as soon as they protested, and yeah, their reputations were tarnished, and okay, yeah, the mine lost millions of dollars while they exposed what we did, and okay, potential investors shied away while all this is sorted out…So what! We thought we could get away with it…didn’t, but that’s beside the point…and just try to hold us accountable. Here’s why…..”
The complete audacity is beyond comprehension. We’re currently living in a climate in this country where a mere allegation carries clout, not evidence, convicting innocence pre-tial with politics (aka Duke’s lacrosse team), and even when exposed these OUTRAGEOUS actions seem to be swept under the rug. Because they were immune?
There is no question that public, legally deputized and elected D.A.s should have the tools they need to prosecute alleged criminals, within the boundaries of law and Constitutional authority. How can criminal CDAA lawyers suggest that they can operate outside the bounds of law and Constitutional authority? Because they pretend to have immunity??? This should be a RED FLAG to all sitting D.A.s and A.G.s…the CDAA’s posture undermines this given authority, the very life-line of law enforcement.
Where is the OUTRAGE? I am a citizen and believe that the Original Sixteen to One Mine’s decision to expose this illegal vigilante action is not only an action to provide justice and retribution to the mine and Mike Miller, but represents my OUTRAGE AS A CITIZEN and should prevail in the US Court of Appeals.
I plan on being there.

Gold/Silver Index 48.85It was reported on April 14, 2007 by Dow Jones that, “Japan’s finance minister said Saturday he had proposed to the International Monetary Funds’s policy-steering body that the fund sell its gold reserves to cover falling income.” As of last year, the IMF said it held 103.4 million ounces of gold.
“Japan has told(the committee): “Why not sell gold?”
“Omi’s proposal is in line with Japan’s long-held stance as well as recommendations made earlier this year by a high-level panel at the IMF. In late January, the panel, chaired by Andrew Crockett, president of JPMorgan Chase & Co.(JPM), urged the fund to sell some of its vast gold reserves and invest the proceeds to raise money.”
1- The action of gold is indicating that the Japanese Yen is a short sale.
2- JPMorgan Chase is a bullion bank which is short gold and is also a commercial bank whose financial health will always look good when gold is low.
Both their philosophies are the same: kill gold, the messenger, if you don’t like the news. The news today is that gold is very strong at $685.40.
Japan’s currency as measured against gold is in the dumpster and the Dollar is starting to slip off a cliff compared to gold. Sorry boys, you only have yourselves to blame. Attempting to kill the teacher won’t change your grades.
The London Sunday Times today is reminding its readers that Gordon Brown has cost the English people two billion pounds following his gold sales campaign for the Treasury between 1999 and 2002.
The Times’ report on Gordon lists many comical reasons given by the Treasury saying why Gordon did no wrong. Oh I forgot, Gordon is their boss.
Gold’s current push in here has a lot of people worried and it appears that the miscreants have started a new campaign to discredit gold.
This is an old trick that has been used in markets since the beginning. If you want a commodity, stock, currency or in this case gold to go down, then start your attack in the media.
The hedge funds continue to short the gold stocks probably with naked shorts. Why not? The SEC doesn’t care. Oh I forgot, the SEC is a member of the Exchange Stabilization Fund that has no interest in seeing a higher gold price.
There is no question that a good portion of the attack against gold has been all this naked shorting of gold stocks by the hedge funds in an attempt to quiet the public interest as they are related to the metal.
Don’t be a victim of the tricks that these miscreants are throwing our way. Sit tight and enjoy the ride to offset inflation and take some profits along the way!

Excellent input!
These power abusing scum bags need to be brought to justice.
I once heard from a former DA that the reason that some of the DA’s lie and deceive is to compete with the criminals who also lie and deceive. When the DA’s start acquiring criminal behavior and start applying it to non-criminals they become the criminals themselves and the circle is complete.
If I were in charge I would submit all DA’s to periodical psychological review to determine if they were still fit to serve the people.
I have personal experience with a current senior DA who likes to steal from a family trust. He is able to do this only because his 88 year old mother continues to have confidence in him and she is too old to understrand the facts.
Rick, these guys also do senior abuse.
The justice system is not meant to be a good old boy’s club for the select few who know how to break the law and get away with it the best.
in reply to: CDAA Conduct #2857With reference to the pending
case, all attys on the pro-
secution side including the
former DA, all CDAA’s, excepting the current Sierra Co. DA deserve some sort of punishment, and if they continue the same mode of
tactic in similar cases, they
deserve to suspension from
law practice.in reply to: Clips from Alleghany #2856Ten boxes of new phone wire arrived via UPS last week. “Out with the old and in with the new”. The phones at the mine have been wreaking havoc this winter. Already there is a noticeable improvement.
The miners are extending the 800 level north. A little gold came out yesterday. Another crew is plugging away at the cave-in on the 1,000 foot level.
A bunch of new ladders for the second exit were manufactured last week.
A Mine Safety Health Administration (MSHA) inspector was here Tuesday and Wednesday. The inspection went well.
Ore cars, trammers and other equipment are being rehabbed for the anticipated mining off the 1,000 foot level once the cave-in is cleared.
Scoop saw a bunch of cars at the Alleghany Firehouse yesterday morning. A meeting to discuss the Fire Safe Grant that has been awarded to create a defensible space downslope of Alleghany was held. Representatives of the Sierra County Fire Safe Council, the Forest Service, Pliocene Ridge CSD and both the PIke and Alleghany Fire Chiefs were in attendance as well as the Registered Forester who will be helping with the project and a couple community members. Word is a town meeting will be scheduled in May to educate the community about the project.
Alleghany got a blanket of snow yesterday morning that was washed away by rain in the afternoon. By evening it was snowing again. The clouds cleared out in the early am and it was 22 degrees Fahrenheit this morning.

Gold/Silver Index 49.11The following is a list of metals with their five year performances:
Nickel + 792%
Zinc + 489%
Copper + 482%
Lead + 394%
Silver + 198%
Aluminum+ 113%
Gold + 111%
Over the same five year period:
Dow Jones Industrial Averages + 74%
Philadelphia Gold % Silver Index + 158%
Assuming a loss in purchasing power of 10% per year over the past five years, all the percentage gains of the above should be reduced 50% to reflect this subjective estimate for the real rate of inflation.
Unfortunately, the inflation estimates have to be made because the government skews the numbers with their CPI.
The five year trends in the metals are well established and will continue as our money supply continues to expand.
The Dow Jones Industrial stocks are the worst performer of this group. Sadly, the biggest loser of all is having your excess funds in government bonds or in the banks where you are losing part of your wealth as a result of the inflation factor.
Is there any wonder why the government doesn’t want the price of gold to seek its natural levels?
If gold were to be higher there would be more questions about: What is happening to our money? Remember, gold is the inflation report card. The government is playing a dangerous game in trying to control a bull market in gold.
If the bull gets loose the Exchange Stabilization boys will have to account for the country’s gold or go to jail.
in reply to: CDAA Conduct #2855The average American rarely experiences the importance of the judicial process in a free society. I am an average American and am relying on the integrity of California’s second highest court in the upcoming appeal of the defendants in our lawsuit. Following will be entries in a new topic on a subject that began in November 2000. Your input is welcomed, or you can sit back and watch the process continue.
Lawyers believe they can use any tactic to benefit their client; however the legislature and the State Bar have placed restrictions on abusing or misleading the Court. What is not happening in America today is punishment for serious breaches in lawyers’ behavior towards the Court. Let’s hope the Appeal scheduled for April 18, 2007 at 2pm in Sacramento will fail as all other motions have failed that were brought before the Court by this unscrupulous group.
April 10, 2007
Dear Klaus,
Following are my comments on the five documents generated by the anti-SLAPP appeal. I read them in order, which is what you suggested. Some of my observations were covered in later filings. I look forward to April 18 as a response to a necessary but non-defendable action by Tom Knox on behalf of his clients. I encourage you to use a moment of your precious time before the Court to seek sanctions and damages for misusing the law. Otherwise, I have nothing new to suggest. My friends agree that this motion insults the integrity of the judicial system. It is seen as ruse to buy time and drive up expenses.
Best wishes, Mike1. The Introduction in appellants opening brief misstates the case in second paragraph; it describes “this case” as “prosecuting a criminal case openly and publicly”. Not so. Used the public shield of the Grand Jury.
2. Introduction says, “with the express authorization of the elected DA”. Is this an assertion of fact that should be judged in a trial? The only suggested authorization is in a letter by me to O’Sullivan, which I wrote before obtaining a copy of the CDAA contract. She wrote me back on July 18, saying “As you know I am not the prosecutor of record on this case and therefore, I will not be discussing this case with you.” On August 28, 2002 I wrote her after studying the contract. Michael Mason from DPR wrote O’Sullivan that CDAA would be presenting the case to her. Minor stuff but goes to the point that defense is misstating the facts in subtle ways to gain the privilege of immunity. There are no letters signed by DA authorizing the bad guys to prosecute in Sierra County.
Last paragraph on page 1 presents the appellant court with a representation that the “four natural Appellants were experienced prosecutors”. Not so with Denise, as Filter tells Sierra County Grand Jury that she is new and a rising star. She was a new member of the State Bar with no prosecution experience.
These may seem on their face trivial points. Not so because this properly identifies the approach the defense has taken from the very beginning of the case. These are purposeful examples of misleading the court. This is how they decided to defend the case.
Page 2 (1). O’Sullivan’s “acting in response to a report from Cal OSHA” is backwards from the language of contract between DPR and CDAA. She is supposed to ask for help. She never did.
(2). Larry Allen did not agree to dismiss the charges. Judge Young granted the motion to set aside the indictment. Allen decided not to refile. Subtle but important.
Page 3
1. Knox validated the motion before the appeals court saying it “arose out of protected constitutional activity.” Has he ever specifically identified which clause in our constitution? This is something you know better than I; however all readers of this case cannot understand how an anti-SLAPP motion applies. Also, you should ask for sanctions so we can recover the costs of this frivolous motion.Page 4. Knox relies on two points where Young was wrong: prosecution was illegal by law. Therefore, Knox must provide facts to support that CDAA was legal. I don’t know what they are. Second he must prove that CDAA is entitled to immunity and they established a likelihood of prevailing on their claims.
Page 4. Paragraph starting “Appellant’s”… what is the relevance that motion “was undertaken in furtherance of right of petition”?
Page 6 in Knox’s statement of facts, he says that DA may request assistance. No evidence that O’Sullivan requested help. The facts continue to page 9 where it is presented O’Sullivan appointed etc; however there is no record of an appointment. It’s his clients’ statement. It is odd that Knox supports his “evidence” by saying on Page 11 that O’Sullivan directed and authorized Ms Mejlszenkier. See her letter to me where she (O’Sullivan) said she had nothing to do with this case, corroborated by Don Russell statement.
Klaus, they are making up a defense and the judges need to know how Knox is proceeding with his defense. .
On page 2 of Young’s decision to toss the motion (line 11 to 14) defendants did not prove their first burden. Young further says that even if they passed first test, they failed second test.
Beginning on Page 13, Knox begins a line of attack that somehow Michael Miller by his letters has authorized the CDAA defendants to be DA’s. Ridiculous but an important note is that the July 9, 2002 letter and all correspondence up to August 28 was before I read the contract between CDAA and State of California. More importantly Michael Miller runs a mining company and is not a lawyer. He had no idea that the California legislature passed a set of requirements that private lawyers must perform to act as government prosecutors. Interestingly, CDAA presents itself as great teachers and aids to county district attorneys. They should have been aware of the law. There are no excuses for taking shortcuts on procedures of appointment. Interestingly, they did it the right way in Yolo County and other counties (certified proper appointments are part of the record). Perhaps procedures were not followed in Sierra County because the sitting DA did not appointment them and was never around. Whether it was her incompetence or some other reason, CDAA should have had the knowledge and experience to make sure it was done legally. Judge Young is clear in his December 1, 2005 ruling that: “defendants rely on their own declarations and their own admissions …. Page 3, L 26 on.
Again on Page 18 near top, Knox claims that On Feb 13, 2003 DA Allen agreed to dismiss. This is completely and unequivocally a lie. Allen made two newspaper quotes after that day. The first said he would review the case and Young’s decision. Don Russell talked with him after a number of people exploded. Days later he decided not to refile. Since Knox repeats this twice and it is provable false, it must be a big deal in his appeal.
Page 19. Probably not important to judges but Knox tries to validate Sierra County involvement by citing my claim to county for damages, saying it proves “implicit” position. No way, it was a strategy to keep option open for negotiations. Attorney/client privilege.
The rest of the opening brief is word-crap disguised in poor legal logic. I’m going to your reply now.
I still believe that the notion that an anti-SLAPP motion to dismiss is beyond the legislative intent on the law passed by the Assembly and Senate, and is, if not a central issue, an issue of abuse that these judges must consider.
Klaus, I read your reply and cannot find anything to bring up that we have not discussed.
Appellant’s Reply Brief
1. This is a criminal case under discussion, not an Administrative Procedures Act. Comparison fails. (page 14). Criminal cases have a higher standard than administrative law.
2. Page 2-bottom first paragraph. Knox tells court that our case is not grounded in CDAA’s prosecution. On page 24, thrust of claim is unlawful assumption of power. Knox cites your brief, page 35 and wrongly tells court that prosecution is not the issue. You write that they cloaked themselves …to bring unwarranted criminal charges ie. PROSECUTION!!! Just another example of Knox distorting what others say. Must we point these ongoing misstatements to the judges? My take on all this is that Knox probably with his clients input has seized a motion that does not apply with the facts of the case for an appeal. It is a last unethical gasp from a sinking group of lawyers who continue to take the law into their own hands for their own personal benefit. If I were a judge on this case, I would sanction their behavior in my courtroom.
3. Whoever wrote this either has a very poor grasp of the English language or is purposely writing to confuse the reader. Clarity is not present and it is difficult to offer comments. Page 2. When he challenges our position that the anti-SLAPP does not apply, what is he telling the judges with the following: Respondents assert that the anti-SLAPP statue does not apply because any conduct by Appellants otherwise falling within the ambit of the statute is merely incidental to the true basis for Respondents’ complaint. Ambit is a boundary or extent. So what is the relevance or purpose of the writer to tell the judges this opinion? If it has one or the other, maybe it needs to be addressed.
4. Klaus, You asked me to read in order the filings again. I want to puke. Who signed this brief, anyway? Oh, Tom Knox signed it. Page 2. “But Respondents ignore the policy undergirding the doctrine of prosecutorial immunity.” He refers the reader to page 30. par IV.A. He says our position “flies in the face of reason and offends common sense.” He says it is okay, to break the law in appointments and that the word employee means anyone an official wants to recognize. He must take points from a case he cites and massages it to fit his contrived theories. From his choice of words, I get the feeling that Knox is writing an English 1A paper instead of a serious argument to some very serious judges in a very serious case. Page 31 has caps and bold print: Prosecutorial Immunity Does Not Depend on Who Signs the Paycheck. The game of law is a game of words just as George would remind me. When words are meaningful, their meanings should not be challenged. “It depends on the definition of is”, comes to mind. Well-established definitions, such as those for “employee” do not need a bunch of court cases to define. I doubt that the Attorney General spent the time required to take any position in his Amicus Brief. His lack of attention is no excuse. He has taken the wrong side for what is best for the California public, which he is entrusted to protect. Knox opines that our case threatens the very basis of immunity. Bunk! He tells the judges that our case “would eviscerate the authority otherwise enjoyed by DA’s to appoint such deputies.” There is no evidence or do we offer a case for this to happen. No evisceration will take place here. Do the judges need to hear this from you?
He cited White v. Towers (1951). The Court said: “the doctrine of immunity is not for the benefit of the few who might otherwise be compelled to respond in damages. It is for the benefit of all to whom it applies, that they may be free to act in the exercise of honest judgment, uninfluenced by fear of consequences personal to themselves. This again is not for their personal advantage or benefit. It is only that they may be enabled to render a better public service.” Key words or meanings: honest judgment, not for personal advantage or benefit, render a better public service. Filter and his fellow carpetbaggers judgment is provably not honest. Reading the Grand Jury transcript is proof.
They needed cases to get more money for a contract extension and none of the defendants’ actions rendered public service to Sierra County residents or Californians.Fortunately, the Duke lacrosse prosecutor was exposed. Our case, however, is more serious. We are in the position to help the Court system to clean itself from dishonest players or those who break the law by telling lawyers there are consequences. I hope the Court will see that the White v. Towers case as defined by Knox does not apply to our situation. It is too broad an application, but what does a guy do when his hand is in the cookie jar and he has no defense.
Knox tells the judges that his clients met the threshold of “substantial compliance” with the oath and a public record was provided. The appointment is the key because the appointer must be an elected district attorney. This would be the only recourse the public has to terminate dishonest, illegal or harmful prosecutions. It is called the Recall. Public notice is one reason the legislature codified a procedure. Others are accountability and responsibility.
Knox raises the de facto excuse, saying on page 14 that appellants were at least de facto deputies. He lists five reasons why Flatley and Paul for Council do not apply. Number four is “exercising the function of that office lawfully. Well, none were lawfully appointed. Also and most importantly they were not “exercising their functions lawfully and with the acquiescence of the public”. (Page 16). Bunker Hill case. This is what the Supreme Court described as the application of the de facto doctrine. Well, Klaus, they were not functioning lawfully by withholding exculpatory evidence and the public did complain about their behavior. I was not the only one to complain. At bottom of page 16 Knox uses the words, “uncontradicted evidence”. How can the judges believe Knox as to his claim of meeting the requirement of exercising the function of the office? The Sierra County DA, the Sierra County Sheriff. The federal MSHA inspectors and the state CAL/OSHA inspectors functioned as investigators and prosecutors to determine that there were no criminal activities surrounding Mark Fussell’s tragic accident.
I think that somehow the Court should be informed about the purposeful misrepresentations this defense consistently uses. Maybe contemporary lawyers have accepted this behavior, but it certainly is frowned upon by the public and the Courts. If we show the judges how much and often this ploy is used, it may be of value. Let me know and we will set out to find more.
AMICUS BRIEF
In the statement of interest the AG defends this brief by a general suggestion that it is in the public interest. Everything about this brief is so general that I find it insults the office. If there ever was a time to a movement by prosecutors, it is now and with this case, not the anti-SLAPP motion. My biggest question is where does the AG believe that Judge Young went wrong with his decision? Judge Young heard the whole case and he is the one whose job it is to protect the public as well as individuals. He did. This brief mentions “neutrality”. The AG was not neutral. The defendants were not neutral when they lied to a grand jury and also broke the law. These guys were not “principled and fearless decision-makers as the AG cites in Imbler v. Pachtman. I could turn his case evidence to our side. Here is an example.
Page 4. Gregoire v. Biddle (1949). The California Supreme Court position that absolute immunity is absolute and is “grounded on principles of public policy”. The AG picks the following language to make his point. “It does indeed go without saying that an official, who is in fact guilty of using his powers to vent his spleen upon others, or for any other personal motive not connected with the public good, should not escape liability for the injuries he may so cause; and. If it were possible in practice to confine such complaints to the guilty, it would be monstrous to deny recovery.” Wow!!
Gayle Filter, according to an internal memo from co-defendant (Denise) knew that his case had no probable cause. We also know that Filter was lobbying for more money from CDAA papers and needing to prove the value of getting taxpayer money for his personal use. Where is the public benefit from putting a hundred year old company out of business and putting its management in prison?
This gang was not public employees or public servants as the AG states are the reasons for taking their side. When the AG yaps about the general claims of immunity that are applicable, he never says the individuals who break the law are immune. He completely shows his ignorance of the facts of the grand jury proceedings. He says that Judge Young “ignored the core of immunity analysis.” Judge Young dealt with an anti-SLAPP motion and his decision is clear as to why he denied the motion. He makes no stab to enlighten the Court about particular misdeeds by Judge Young. As an aside, I have had occasions to interview many people connected with State government about the work CDAA has offered them. Some and I am sure not all CDAA employees use flattery, their expense account or intimidation at times to get their way. In the AG’s conclusion he writes, “a technicality must yield to the robust public policy favoring prosecutorial immunity. Prosecutors must be free to fearlessly enforce the law on the public’s behalf.”
You have my correspondences about the Mr. Lockyer’s office, so nothing more to add.
Last paper to read is your answer to Amicus Brief. Well done. I wish I could add something. We already discussed the input from a former director. Phew! I’m done.
in reply to: Clips from Alleghany #2853“Deep enough” echoed down the Tightner Shaft, flowing south into the lower working of the mine. “It just didn’t look good enough to continue spending valuable time and money”, said Ian. The two miners working the heading gathered their tools and headed to a new location. Although geologic signs that have proven to be positive for exploration were present, the new heading has gold showing in the quartz. “There’s no better arrow pointing the way than gold”, Ian puffed, as he carried and dragged a bucket of tools up the raise to the 1000-foot level. “We may be back”, Ian said. “We know the quartz ledge is turning and it definitely is the right thickness. The ‘bluejay’ on the hanging wall and footwall is beautiful, like a semi-precious stone.” (For those who forget or never knew, ‘bluejay’ is the name miners gave to a siliceous variety of muscovite. It’s greener than bluish and is a mineral found close to a high-grade pocket.) “I want to return for a few more rounds someday, but we have gold showing, little recent production and limited manpower.”
Scoop has witnessed this before. Good for the Sixteen to One boys. Knowing when to quit a spot is just as important as picking a spot to mine. Deep enough! Glad Scoop doesn’t have to make that decision. Good for those Sixteen to One boys. Can’t let ego get in the way of a sound but tough decision.
The news about the 1000-foot level rehab is mixed. Report is it may take seven more weeks to get to the 1064 winze. Mike is rolling the dice on his miners clearing the level before money runs out. The width of the tunnel is so narrow that a mucking machine and man can just fit. Scoop was invited for a look. It’s dirty, noisy and scary. Wall rock and roof rock the size of small cards can be seen for about sixty feet in the level as well as gooey clay and other debris. The crew installs wooden and steel stulls and has drilled rock bolts everywhere to support both the ribs and roof. They will get through and the bosses were right in mining through the level instead of drifting around the existing level. What a highway it will be when it is finished.
While snooping around the office, Scoop learned that Klaus Kolb, attorney extraordinaire, requested additional time for oral argument in the upcoming appeal hearing in Sacramento. He bases this request because the CDAA lawbreakers filed a brief of 10,324 words and cite 30 cases not cited in their Opening Brief, the misguided Amicus Brief filed by California’s Attorney General (Lockyer not Brown) raised additional arguments that were not raised in the lawbreakers Reply Brief, and that the lawbreakers’ claims of absolute immunity are “sufficiently novel and complex”. Mr. Kolb is so polite. Scoop has never met him but is sure he would rather write that the lawbreakers are perverting the integrity of a once proud justice system with this false appeal. “Sufficiently novel and complex” could only come from a Harvard graduate. Scoop graduated from high school and the school of hard knocks. Gail Filter, his cronies and their lawyers are feeding California’s second to highest court ‘bull sheet’ says Scoop. Come see for yourself on April 18, in Sacramento.

“The first move up was from the belief that Iran was going to hold and try the captives, but after Iran said they were free to go, gold ran right back up to the high and held it.”
“That is outrageous strength. I have not seen anything like this since 1979.”(In 1979 gold advanced from $250 to nearly $900 in January of 1980.)
There is no one that has bettered Mr. Sinclair’s track record concerning his opinions and predictions of gold. His long standing prediction is that gold will trade at $1,650.
