I received in the mail today a letter from Daniel J. Fojtik dated for May 7, 2006 (Sunday) which is unheard of since the Kent County Friend of the Court staff are union workers who have their own quota system of how much work they do for themselves, similar to the quotas of parents they successfully force out of their children's lives to obtain federal tax payer money. The post mark is actually 5th of this month and is for 32 cents! The Friend of the Court must be taking more lessons from Peter Walsh on how to fix various wrong dates to letters which contradict the postmarks. There are serious concerns with the reliability of the incompetent friend of the courts around Michigan that blindly perform administrative functions without scrutiny in an effort to steal U.S. tax payer money.
Needless to say the letter was a response to my Request for Production to Non Party for Daniel J. Fojtik and John R. Cole alleging that MCR 3.218 is the "exclusive" means to obtaining evidence from the Friend of the Court which simply is untrue. More to come on this issue later folks.
Mr. Peter Walsh sent an interesting fax to the Kent County Welfare Attorney (Daniel J. Fojtik, Kent County Friend of the Court) today. This welfare attorney works with Mommy Dearest (Annalise McMenamin, Wyoming, MI) and Peter Walsh. It basically gives wrongful advice to the welfare attorney, in which he was unsure of in the first place and has attempted to ask for legal advice from a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Trustee handling my voluntary petition. (Peter Walsh isn't the smartest cookie in the Jar.)
More interesting Mr. Walsh began complaining about some faxes that he alleged I sent out. This was pretty funny, because he says that "Mr. Holland has the time and money to fax defamatory material from one side of the state to the other" in which led me to check with the software provider on how hundreds of faxes were sent out. They indicated they had a software glitch that caused the resending of faxes from about 5 months ago to people. That effort cost me no money and no effort, and although not authorized by me, definitely was pleasant to hear. The truth is not defamatory and it is also important to note that defamation cannot occur with public officials and Peter Walsh regularly makes a fool of himself to the public and to his peers when he alleges such ignorant things. He already got caught making false statements and altered evidence to government officials, so now he will try to take the light off his own deceptive practices. See my letter to Daniel J. Fojtik below.
This will prevent further delay from obtaining communications between certain Judges, John R. Cole, Daniel J. Fojtik, and other representatives that may relate to my case or lead to other pertinent evidence.
Well, there is no surprise that Judge G. Patrick Hillary's office has not replied to the letter that I sent to his office on May 1, 2006 requesting a copy of the transcript from the last hearing. This type of conduct just goes to show you what Kent County's intent is. Similar to how Judge G. Patrick Hillary's office reviews a media request, signs subpoenas, and then renigs on the media requests making him look like a complete moron, especially in front of attorneys that have been planted in the audience to observe his behavior and had prior knowledge of what was going to happen. These officials have become more than predictable. Read on for my SECOND request for the transcripts to Judge G. Patrick Hillary's Office. They will likely try and delay these as long as possible which was also anticipated.

I received a call from Daniel J. Fojtik (Welfare Attorney for Annalise McMenamin) indicating that an Order to Show Cause scheduled for tomorrow had been dismissed. This is after they were already advised that there was a Chapter 13 Automatic Stay in place last Friday, but they needed a couple of extra days to figure out if it affected them. (Daniel J. Fojtik, Peter Walsh, and Judge G. Patrick Hillary)
Well after last Friday's hearing and the Judge's conduct, I have decided to request the audio recording and made a request for the video proceedings before they try and destroy that evidence as well. After seeing Judge G. Patrick Hillary's conduct on last Friday it is certainly appropriate to obtain this material before he attempts to destroy it as well. Attached is my request to Jacqueline Flowers, who is his court reporter.
John R. Cole is both an employee of the 17th Circuit Court in Kent County and the Director of the Kent County Office of the Friend of the Court, which is a judicial agency that has found a nice little niche market serving Judges, Referees, and court created “custodial” parents by aligning themselves together against the court created “non custodial” parent. The County of Kent, through contractual agreements between the Judges, County, and the State of Michigan’s Department of Human Services worked out a deal to get as much federal funding as possible by artificially increasing participation in a special welfare program known as Title IV-D, often disguised as child support enforcement originally intended to offset cash assistance recipients. This program now only serves to subsidize one parent’s lifestyle at the expense of the other parent in nearly all cases and universally leads to the diminishment of one parent to the advantage of the other parent over a course of time.
Kent County’s Title IV-D manufacturing line is a free-for-all welfare spending program that is harming our elderly by not having eligibility requirements for people being forced to participate in the affirmative-action modeled programs. The Kent County Title IV-D assembly line also hurts children by artificially subsidizing one parent at the sole expense of the contesting parent. The discrimatory actions sponsored by the Kent County Family Court system demands the reduction of the role that one parent plays in their own children’s lives in order to maximize funding and give the appearance that intervention is required. Since the program pays Kent County Circuit Court and the County based on participation numbers and then the subsequent enforcement against the newly created obligors, these officials salivate at the prospect of adding parents to the Title IV-D welfare rolls to increase their own federal funding and pay the growing bills associated with such a large welfare operation. The operation of Kent County Friend of the Court is similar to most affirmative-action programs that set reverse discrimination as the standard and artificially elevates one class above the other as a form of “equitable” relief and quota production line. The problem lies in the need to keep adding new members to each class of parent or risk having to cut jobs in the oversized beuracracy. The important factor here is that the 17th Circuit Court, the County, and the Friend of the Court receive financial rewards for expected outcomes and the subsequent enforcement of the expected outcomes. In fact, they are rewarded for the creation of and collection from the parent that has been diminished in the lives of their children.
Now enter Dawn Swafford and Kelly Van Dyken earlier this year that have started the “local chapter of ACES” with hopes to use the national grassroots name of ACES to further the agenda of increased income to single-mothers as a primary goal at the expense of the other fit parent that helped create the child. Grand Rapids ACES is claiming the money is really for the children. After reviewing public statements by Dawn Swafford and Kelly Van Dyken on their local Grand Rapids ACES website they released a message to the public, which although very poorly written, demonstrated their views toward men as parents. They start off with a title “ “What you don’t know could hurt your children!” and then immediately to “Men’s rights activist[s] feel as though they should be granted unlimited access to their child while continuing to fail in their responsibility to financially support these children.” This statement is pretty clear, that these women feel that children should be raised only by one parent and have their personal income supplemented as a result. They should simply remove the word children and put their own name in the sentence above to demonstrate the true intentions of their organization. Common sense says a man that has unlimited access to a couple’s children would already be providing for the care, custody, and upbringing, including bearing the expense associated with the couple’s child while in his care. This is why women in organizations such as Grand Rapids ACES fear equal custody rights, because they will lose their free subsidy from the other parent and have to go out and work to pay their own way as well as support their own quality of life without the benefit of free subsidies or disguised welfare claimed by them in the name of the couple’s children.
Another important public statement published by Grand Rapids ACES founders is that “Stand up now for your legal rights to collect child support, to protect your children from an abuser and the right to raise your child in a secure environment.” Kelly and Dawn definitely show their true colors here and are trying to jump onto the domestic violence wagon. Really all they demonstrate with such a statement is that without welfare through either Title IV-A cash assistance or Title IV-D their members cannot even support their own children in a secure environment and try to blame men for their own obstructions to obtaining self-sufficiency. Kent County Judges and the Friend of the Court know that this is true and are furthering social welfare policy instead of the rights of children that are solely derived through the parents. Using children as a source of income for both Kent County Circuit Court Judges and their employees, as well as a source of income for otherwise low-income wage earners is certainly only in their own best interests as demonstrated by comments made by Kelly and Dawn in their public messages as well as John R. Cole's public support of these women.
Kent County Friend of the Court, John R. Cole, and the 17th Circuit Court Judges support organizations like Grand Rapids ACES publicly as seen from statements made by Cole to the Grand Rapids Press and published in January 2006. “Every comment they (Kelly and Dawn) made is true to one degree or another” and “Cole supports groups like ACES.” Take a look at who Kent County is supporting and why they are supporting them. This public support by Cole on behalf of his employer speaks volumes as to why one parent’s role is diminished and then forced to subsidize the artifically elevated parent’s standard of living. This public support by Cole also helps maintain a massive unionized beauracracy that starts at the gateway, the Kent County Circuit Court Judges. By supporting organizations like Grand Rapids ACES, Kent County is sending out the message they are going to continue to align themselves with groups such as ACES and encourage the diminishment and deprivation of otherwise fit, willing, and competent parents from having a meaningful and equal role in their children’s lives, with the intent to skew participation numbers to obtain more federal subsidies.
Women have struggled for over a century to get out of the house and find work, but now have taken on the role that they should be able to raise children on their own, get free day care to liberate them, get a free subsidization from the other parent for the apparent burden they suffer from having to be a parent, and then not allow the other parent to participate in the actual true upbringing of the children. Dawn and Kelly show by their actual public statements that they want to enjoy maximum financial benefits of raising children and none of the actual burdens associated with being a parent. Kent County Circuit Court has shown that they are just in it for the money and, through their own employees, will support any group that helps promote justification of publicly sanctioned discrimination. John R. Cole and the 17th Circuit Court Referees and Judges can keep their growing annual paychecks with each forced indentured servant that wants to raise their children. When you look at the fact that Kent County Circuit Court received over $4.2 Million in 2006 to promote discrimination it is easy to see that only their own special interests are served and the children are forgotten and deprived of a fit, willing, and competent parent.
Subpoenas requesting information from both John R. Cole and Daniel J. Fojtik were issued earlier this week and served today via mail and fax to the Kent County Friend of the Court. These subpoenas can be downloaded here. These subpoenas are requesting specific documents and emails between John R. Cole, Danielf J. Fojtik, Peter P. Walsh, and Judge G. Patrick Hillary.
