Criminal Judges and Prosecution for Obstruction of Justice?: Full Disclosure Network® Video Report
WASHINGTON, April 5, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Former U.S. Prosecutor Richard I. Fine, Ph.D is featured in a three-segment online video and cable TV series on the Full Disclosure Network® where he exposes the problems related to Judicial Officers who have received illegal payments from litigants appearing before them, a practice prohibited by law and the Judicial Canons of Ethics. Specifically, Fine describes the circumstances involving the recent Federal prosecution of Judge Adams along with the process to "Null and Void " illegal court orders when issued by a "conflicted" judge. Using an example, Fine cited his own case where California Superior Court Judge David Yaffe ordered him held for eighteen months in civil contempt of court in a case where the Judge had accepted $850,000 from a party involved in the case before him.
Three video segments (8 minutes each) are available here online from the title links below and featured on public access and community cable television channels throughout California and in major cities across the United States.
