Litany of
Concurrent and Continuing Demands
and Discovery Demands
1. I
demand a withdrawal of my plea; it
was given without counsel. My public
defender is not counsel; she is representation.
I do not need somebody to take my
place. I need assistance - effective
assistance - just like the 6th
amendment promises.
2. I
demand that the court devise a telephone
or other means to permit my out of
state counsel to speak for me at every
hearing.
3. I
demand all discovery before I make
a plea.
4. I
demand to see the affidavit in support
of the warrant.
5. I
demand a prompt (within 5 working
days) transcript of each hearing.
6. I
demand a WordPerfect version of every
transcript. If you don’t have WordPerfect
then html, WordPerfect, txt, rtf,
or editable pdf format is acceptable.
7. I
demand that no business on my case
be transacted in chambers.
8. I
demand a copy of all discoverable
documents including police reports
and all files regarding me immediately.
9. I
demand a copy of the affidavit and
application for the warrant.
10. I
demand a certified copy of the warrant.
11. I
waive no rights.
12. I
demand a court reporter whenever I
am in court.
13. I
cannot pay the costs of this litigation.
14. I
demand a trial at a fair pace.

1 232 US 383, 58
L Ed 652, 34 S Ct 341. The Exclusionary
Rule. Invented by the Supreme Court
in Weeks v. U. S. (1914), this rule
of evidence bans from trial information
that directly or indirectly stems
from illegal police investigation.
Applied to the states during the Due
Process Revolution. The Court developed
the rule to deter police from violating
the Fourth Amendment. In the U. S.
neither administrative controls nor
civil suits had much impact on police
malpractice. While the U. S. has been
a pioneer in developing the exclusionary
rule, other countries have adopted
the reform, particularly when faced
with major problems of political legitimacy.
In 1982 when Canada made the rule
part of its new Charter of Rights
and Freedoms. Faced with a series
of police abuses of power in confronting
the Northern Ireland civil war and
recent waves of non-white immigrants,
Britain enacted in 1984 the Police
and Criminal Evidence Act, which substantially
broadened its exclusionary rule. Exigent
circumstances Situations that require
immediate intervention. The exclusionary
rule does not apply when police officers
discover evidence while responding
to emergencies. For example, if there
is a fire in your dorm room or someone
yelling "Help! Police!"
a police officer may enter and if
upon entry any evidence is in plain
view it will be admissible without
a search warrant. This exception to
the exclusionary rule exists to prevent
officers from having to choose between
responding to emergencies or giving
up the possibility of discovering
evidence of a crime.

Declaration
of Actor William McNamara of Hollywood
I,
William McNamara, declare the following
under penalty of perjury: I am a percipient
witness to the following except as
indicated herein. I am competent to
testify. If called I will testify
as follows:
I
am one of the Private People in the
New York Republic, one of The united
states of America, a Union of republic
states.
I
am a student of the law. I have witnessed
first hand the corruption of the uneducated
police and the educated judges and
lawyers. I am aware of the pathetic
injustice perpetrated by the low level
“justice” courts of mass production.
I belong to The Patriot Network. I
am backed by a bevy of experienced
civil rights lawyers. The internet
is exposing the court system to close
scrutiny. Please visit my webpage
for further information at
www.williammcnamara.com
. I am engaged with the making of
a documentary regarding local and
state courts and the justice system
in America of today. My film is based
on my personal investigation and the
freshly released report by the ABA,
"Justice in Jeopardy” which is
linked to my website.
I
am informed of procedural mistakes
and deprivations of Phyllis’s constitutional
rights, as set forth in her statement
of the case and elsewhere.
Phyllis
and her family, upon advice of counsel,
are recording and documenting the
events of this case as best they can.
Their goal is to end this case. Failing
that they have procured the assistance
of experienced civil rights lawyers
from New York and California to write
a civil rights complaint. They have
the capability to file in federal
court as soon as Friday 8 August.
So
far the police, the prosecutor, the
judge and or magistrate have failed,
neglected or refused to provide Phyllis
Burfeindt with:
a
warrant,
a
record,
evidence,
witness
list,
a
signed affidavit of a victim,
timely
and effective assistance of counsel.
Ms
Christine Coho, the public defender,
appears overworked. At the faux arraignment
the public defender relayed a deal
form the prosecutor. She had not yet
interviewed Phyllis. I am informed
that this is standard procedure. The
public defenders throughout the country
generally meet the client in court
- and usually they make a plea then.
They thereby preclude effective assistance
in a pre-plea motion such as a demurrer
by whatever name it is known.
We
could not analyze the offer due to
the prosecution’s failure to provide
discovery documents. More specifically
there was:
No
file;
No
paperwork (Phyllis’s Mom provided
the charging instruments);
No
police report;
No
copy of any warrants.
It
appears that this is a victimless
crime, or more specifically, an aggressive
malicious act of an uneducated vindictive
police officer, James Kilfoyle.
(Name)
__________________ told Phyllis in
my presence that the record (police
report, witness list, affidavit of
the victim, warrant, transcript of
either probable cause or application
for warrant) at the time of arraignment
on July 28th was not available.
In retrospect I offer the following
conjecture: these items were not available
because they did not then exist. Subsequently
the complaint signed on 22 July by
Kilfoyle was produced. If it was signed
on 22 July then it should have been
available on 28 July a week later
- unless it was back dated. I further
speculate that the police will draw
up a warrant and pre-date it as they
did in the case of Attorney Douglas
Palaschak who figured it out - and
many other people who have not figure
it out.
I
observed that Phyllis could not possibly
make an effective plea.
I
know from my discussion with Attorney
Douglas Palaschak that as a general
rule, a lawyer should review all documents
before entering a plea. I know that
standard practice is to continue the
arraignment to give the lawyer time
to evaluate the plea - and collect
money from the defendant.
It
is obvious to me that there is no
person to be impersonated here. I
am informed that this is a basis for
a this demurrer.
I
have personally observed numerous
due process violations in this case.
I
have been informed that the following
items of evidence were obtained illegally
and must be suppressed:
1. The
smoking gun, the declaration of Phyllis.
The was the product of coercion in
a custodial interrogation of somebody
who was not even a suspect.
2. All
evidence flowing from this egregious
violation of Phyllis’s rights and
personal dignity.
I
am informed that Jackie Miller is
the sister of the defendant and that
Jackie Miller would want
her sister to use her name if it would
help the cause. Nobody asked Jackie
Miller if she wants to prosecute.
This is merely vindictive action of
the police that has crossed the line
and has become a crime.
My
investigation shows that James Kilfoyle
committed perjury on the bogus charging
instrument by stating that defendant
intended to benefit by avoiding arrest
on a warrant - while failing to mention
that in fact there was no warrant.
Defendant could not therefore have
benefited. Her intent is irrelevant;
Phyllis had a right to remain silent.
She attempted to exercise that right
as best she could in the face of armed
police who had already demonstrated
that they could lewdly feel her up
with impunity.
Defendant
was deprived of her right to counsel
at her bail hearing.
Her
failure was excessive causing her
to suffer 3 days incarceration on
this bogus and malicious false arrest.
She
was never given a Miranda warning.
She
was never shown an actual warrant
on 28 July 2003. Witness ______________
can attest to that. This raises the
specter of kidnaping pursuant to 18
USC 1201. See Overton v Ohio
(2001) 151 L. Ed. 2nd
317 for definition of warrant.
There
seems to be no record of the court
proceedings so far.
There
was an illegal search and seizure
on July 15th at 12:15 a.m.
alongside and road. They seized Phyllis’s
car and her person without probable
cause - or even any suspicion that
Phyllis had committed any crime. They
had no right to even question her;
she had spousal privilege.
There
was no warrant directing the officers
to detain and interrogate Phyllis
Burfeindt . At the time of detainment
on July 15, 2003 officers failed to
Mirandize Phyllis Burfeindt according
to James Kilfoyle’s sworn statement.
At
the time that the police solicited
that written statement from defendant
they were obligated to inform her
that she was the focus of a criminal
investigation and that she had a right
to remain silent. They should have
advised her of her right to counsel
who would have advised Phyllis of
her spousal privilege. Thereafter
in a vindictive effort to “get Phyllis”
Kilfoyle, the officer who lewdly felt
up Phyllis using the pretext of a
pat down for weapons, and who thereafter
refused to provide a police escort
back home, preferring to have Phyllis
sleep on the sofa hear his isolate
office, this same Kilfoyle concocted
this bogus forgery charge without
running it past a lawyer. Police “out
to get” somebody triggers damages
under section 1983. See Olech
v Village of Willowbrook (1998)
160 F.3d 386 (7th Cir.1998) .
On
July 15, 2003 Office Kilfoyle and
his conspirators acted outside of
his legal jurisdiction and obtained
a statement under false color of law.
At the time of the illegal search
and seizure of Phyllis Burfeindt on
July 15, 2003 she was a passenger
in her own car which was driven safely
and legally. There was no basis for
impoundment.
The
situation in this case triggers remedies
under Brady v. Maryland (1963)
373 U.S. 83. See
http://da.co.la.ca.us/sd02-07.htm
for the new 2002 Los Angeles Brady
policy. (In California a Brady
motion is sometimes called a “Pitchess”
motion.) We want to know what kind
of guy Kilfoyle is - and whether he
has felt up other attractive witnesses
and taken their cars.
Kilfoyle
took Phyllis's personal property,
dignity, signature, and statement
under threat and intimidation under
false color of law thereby abusing
the power of his office for his own
personal lascivious satisfaction.

William McNamara. 31 July 2003
Declaration
of Attorney Douglas Palaschak regarding
traffic and minor cases.
I,
Douglas Palaschak, declare the following
under penalty of perjury: I am a lawyer
with 18 years of experience. I have
never been licensed in Iowa. Most
of my work is in the area of bankruptcy
and civil liberties. I was a civil
libertarian before I went to law school.
An innocent criminal defendant
needs about a year to adequately defend
himself; guilty people require less
time for their trial generally. We
all know from watching the O.J. Simpson
trial that even a trial with priority
takes a long time. I know from experience
that a traffic case is in many ways
more complicated that a felony case
because traffic court is so accustomed
to making deals and trampling on defendant’s
rights. Example: Argersinger
v Hamlin |
