philly.cameras roll

By DAVID GAMBACORTA
Philadelphia Daily News

You’ve seen them around town, looming above an area like an obvious contradiction: Police surveillance cameras that are covered with plastic bags.

It’s a baffling sight to behold, for sure. But city officials say there’s a good reason why dozens of cameras are bagged and not recording.

Under Police Commissioner Charles H. Ramsey’s crime plan, 250 cameras were supposed to have been mounted across the city by the end of the last year.
A variety of obstacles arose – flaws in the cameras’ design, problems with the city’s wireless network, among others – and the $9 million project lagged badly. A new finish date was set for the beginning of this month, but the project is still a work in progress.

    To President Obama The  Commander & chief of the United State&
    The Attorney General Of The United State,
    Honorable Mr. Eric Holder
            I have filed a law suite against all parties involved in  my case employment  discrimination and
    mistreatment,  The Delaware County Office Serving The Aging, Human Relation, Pennsylvania EEOC, and The Civil Service Commission, and International Brotherhood  Teamsters  Local Union 115, and must add Judge Baylson, Michael and the Pennsylvania state attorney Tom Corbett, and feel I might have to add more names. As this case goes on for added discrimination
    ,and farther unfair treatment because I am not a Lawyer. 
         I would like to bring the following situation to your attention. I find my civil rights being violated by
    the following  Judge Baylson, who constantly denials all of my request of   important doc**ent to help
    my case. A  lawyer for the defendants Matthew J Connell of media Penn and the other defendants that
    were dismissed by the judge.  I  have been fighting against work place injustice sine 2007 on my own
    and was granted permission to represent myself  by the  US District court  Judge Baylson. I have written
    your office over the years, and  sent letters and e-mails  to the president  as well   about this matters,
    and the degree of disrespect I get from all parties involved. I am being harassment by all  parties who
    have yet to give me any things I have requested  pertaining to my case or any request I  have made
    under the freedom act of information.
         Those defendants  are located on  the following pages located to the left of the legal form. Who have 
    all denailed  me a right to a fair trail and witnesses to support my accusation, and  the rights to
    examining  any evident agaist me.     
                          Here are my issues!
    1a). Pro se parties are expected to adhere to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and
    the Local Rules of Civil Procedure and to file all of their pleadings with the Clerk of the Court, rather than directly with chambers.    This is one of the judge’s rules, so why did I have to turn my paper work over to the opposing party @ their office?
    1b)  7)   Right to a Fair Trial , so where are my rights especially my civil rights that has been violated by the judge, the attorney general of the state of Pennsylvania, and the other defendants
    (Every person has the right to a fair trial both in civil and in criminal cases, and the effective protection of all human rights very much depends on the practical availability at all times of access to competent, independent and impartial courts of law which can, and will, administer justice fairly.)
    1c)   TITLE 42 > CHAPTER 21 > SUBCHAPTER I > § 1981
    Prev | Next
    § 1981. Equal rights under the law
    How Current is This?
    (a) Statement of equal rights
    All persons within the jurisdiction of the United States shall have the same right in every State and Territory to make and enforce contracts, to sue, be parties, give evidence, and to the full and equal benefit of all laws and proceedings for the security of persons and property as is enjoyed by white citizens, and shall be subject to like punishment, pains, penalties, taxes, licenses, and exactions of every kind, and to no other.
    (b) “Make and enforce contracts” defined
    For purposes of this section, the term “make and enforce contracts” includes the making, performance, modification, and termination of contracts, and the enjoyment of all benefits, (privileges,) terms, and conditions of the contractual relationship. (The  word privileges means that you are entitled to everything another person gets, so the question here is ” Why wasn’t I granted permission to subpoena key state witnesses  or even get important doc**ent from these witnesses. Since I am acting as my own lawyer so where is the due process? )   
     
    (c) Protection against impairment
    The rights protected by this section are protected against impairment by nongovernmental discrimination and impairment under color of State law.   (The Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments of the United States Constitution limit the power of the federal and state governments to discriminate. The Fifth amendment has an explicit requirement that the federal government not deprive individuals of “life, liberty, or property,” without due process of the law. See U.S. Const. amend. V. It also contains an implicit guarantee that each person receive equal protection of the laws. (The Fourteenth Amendment explicitly prohibits states from violating an individual’s rights to due process and equal protection). See U.S. Const. amend. XIV. In the employment context, the right of equal protection limits the power of the state and federal governments to discriminate in their employment practices by treating employees, former employees, or job applicants unequally because of membership in a group (such as a race or sex). Due process protection requires that employees receive a fair process before the termination if the termination relates to a “liberty” (such as the right to free speech) or property interest. State constitutions may also afford protection from employment discrimination. )
    The Constitution does not directly constrain discrimination in the private sector, but the private sector has become subject to a growing body of federal and state statutes.
    1C) I partition the court to subpoena key state workers to court to testified about
    their statements and actions, and  was denied access to these people by the judge Baylson.
    Who seemed to be protecting these state workers as well as the union.
     2) Judge Baylson,  dismissed my case without doing any checks and balances. Which resorted in giving 
    the major defendants the opportunity to have my case dismissed against them, but he had to reopening
    the case. However  the majority  state defendants and the union were  still granted permission for
    dismissal because a mistake made on the court’s behalf.
    3) I sent a letter to the judge under the freedom act of information for the defendants  to appearance in 
    the court room  and   to make key doc**ents available to me and was denied by the judge again.
    4) I am now compelled to take my doc**ents to the opposing lawyer,  but yet when I request
    something from the court I am denied, and the following statement continue to appear on my letter
    from the court or judge “ I need to learn civil proceeding ,but yet he gave me  permission to represent
    myself, so why can’t I have all the privileges  and resources a lawyer has to defend myself?
    5) The last letter I received instruct me to take my doc**ent to the opposing lawyer office and give
    them to them. However, I have informed the opposing lawyer and reminded the judge. Thoses
    doc**ents are in the court’s possession and available to all. Yet I continue to be harassed  by both the
    judge and the lawyer, and all of my request have been denied , and all the privileges a lawyer has have
    not  been extended to me acting as my own lawyer grant by  the court to do so. I can’t see being forced
    to go to the opposing lawyer’s office  equal grounds of  justice. I find it to be a disadvantage for me.
    6) As of 3/10 I have learned that my case has been dismissed, so therefore I would like to bring charges
    Against Judge Baylson for discrimination, unfair treatment,  denialing  my requests, and honoring a
    freedom  of information request, as well as playing sides and adding  more stress.  Ordering  me to take
    my doc**ents to opposing defends  lawyer ’s office. When the doc**ents are available in the court
    House.
         I am asking for a congressional investigation into  the violations of my civil rights to protect my rights
     and myself. I have a right to have   access to all available  doc**ents established by the defendants for
    my review.  To prepare myself for court and copies made available as well.
         I have a right to have all involved in this case subpoena to court to prove my points, and to expose
    the wrong doing  at my last place of employment. To include all the errors the defendants have made.
    I also would  like my case to be heard by another judge. Who is going to be fair with the justice and
    review all doc**ents made available to them. Before favoring the other part because they have the
    degree in law compared to my social worker degree. 
         I have read! When there are in fractions establish in  a case and proof can be provided.  A plaintiff
    Can ask or have their case  moved to the supreme court. To be heard by another judge according to
    Their legal manuals, so please investigate as soon as possible. I need a judge who is going to stand up
    For what’s right and  not  become  apart of the other side. Because they are the state and I am just a
    Veteran . Who tried to go back in the  civilian work force , so the question is who here to protect my
    rights?
    When I have been protecting  their and still have all the means and skills to continue to protect
    American rights.
         The following are emails and letters I have sent before this letter. My case number 08-4182, at the
    United State District Court For The Eastern District Of Pennsylvania, for I am very tired of being play
    with by people who think I do know anything.
         Please read the following doc**ents and investigate how this  judge handled my case!
         I would like to bring federal charge against all involved in my case and their associates for discrimination, unfair treatement, violation of my civil rights, withholding evidenets, ignoring my request, protecting felonies  or their buddies,  causing long term stress, and violating state, county, and federal rules that protects all american especially military veteran, and to conduct a proper investigation, and doing their jobs in the rightful manner
                                                                                                        Sign Veteran Mr. Stephen 
        CC-President and   other veterans organizations and others!
