INTRODUCTION
Every year millions upon
millions of dollars are stolen in staged litigation schemes devised with the
sole purpose of generating fraudulent bills for alleged attorney’s fees. In the
process of such schemes, unsuspecting citizens are being pulled into a vortex
of litigation posturing, disguised as legitimate court proceedings. The result
is financial and emotional devastation for the victims and unjust enrichment
for the color-of-law predators. A key battleground, well known for such staged
litigation schemes, are the state probate courts. The dot com revolution
generated great wealth and we, as a nation, are in the midst of the largest
transfer of family generational wealth in our history.
The objective of the probate
mafia is to intercept (steal) those assets using a cookie cutter system in
order to minimizing the work while maximizing the return on investment. The
problem confronting victims is where to find remedy. In probate, the heirs are
held in stasis (hostage) while the attorneys pose and posture, manufacturing
unnecesasry attorneys fees. In the end the fees are so large the family has to
submit to a settlement agreement (contract) that is always under terms drafted
by the predators themselves.
Every estate planning and
asset protection services provider will tell you that a pour-over will, with
independent administration devising solely to your living trust, will spare you
the horror of guardianship protection and spare your children from suffering
the well known horrors the probate courts have been known to offer. The legal
and equitable theories are generally sound. The problem is in getting judges
and attorneys to burden themselves with the law, when they are clothed in
self-manufactured doctrines of impunity; having everything to gain and nothing
to lose.
The
Case in Point
Grift of the Brunstings is a
two-part story that includes a front end and a back end. The front end is an
estate planning bait and switch that follows a well beaten path and the back end is an attorney exploitation of
the front-end setup that also follows a well beaten path. The backend is where the attorneys pose and
posture and generate bills for unearned fees while the court keeps the suckers
in stasis by not ruling on anything. (See comments on Page 35 Ln. 15-18).
Affidavit of Witness Rik Munson blowintough@att.net
Let’s look at the extended
actors and actions. This one simple case shaing one common nucleus of
opperative facts involving two decedents wills under independent administration
with each estate pouring over into a family living trust, has seen Two State
Courts, Three Federal Courts and Three Federal Fifth Circuit
Courts of Appeal. I am going to dedicate a separate page for each of these
courts and each separate visit. I will feature the judges and justices. I will
make the pleadings and the decisions directly available by hyperlink as I
relate the chronologies and I will offer an analysis of each as I go through
them.
This one case is currently
before the 1st District Court
of Appeals in Houston (my records) on the single question of
statutory probate court jurisdiction. [No.
