To my friends, collegues and acquaintances.
I urgently need your help. So urgently that I regrettably cannot physically write each of individually. As you are aware, for the past ten years I have been involved in litigation against the Church of Scientology. I have represented plaintiffs, defendants and me. In the process Scientology, principally through certain of its lawyers, intentionally set about depriving me of my career, condominium, car, civil rights and legal rights. Some of what these lawyers and their "investigators" did is summarized on pages 8 through 32 of the attached or enclosed letter to:
Honorable Michael D.Marcus
Supervising Judge
State Bar Court

RE: Graham E. Berry, State Bar No.128503
Early Neutral Evaluation Conference: April 3, 2001 at 2 pm.
As you will see on pages 21 through 26 of that letter, the year 1999 was an absolutely horrible one for me , although I did successfully become a non-drinker.Robert Cipriano has testified that Scientology lawyer Rick Moxon was having improper communications with my two former partners.Subsequently,one of them testified on behalf of Hurtado and then ,expressly in association in Wager, he complained to the State Bar that he did not know but thought it possible I may have stolen money from a client.
Since 1999, Wager and Gerner have been repeatedly pressuring the State Bar to disbar me because of Hurtado.But as you read in the letter to Judge Marcus,Wager (Moxon,Ingram et al.) solicited,manufactured and paid for false testimony in Hurtado.Wager confessed under oath.The District Attorney fails to even acknowledge receiving the damning document.An aide to former DA Garcetti stated that the DA would not touch the Cipriano,Hurtado and Apodaca matters for "political reasons".Until recently,the Chairman of the Los Angeles Police Department was a Church of Scientology lawyer and the Los Angeles Police Department continues to use Scientologist founded and dominated Earthlink for certain of its unofficial electronic communications (www.LAPD.org) .So does the Church of Scientology’s Intelligence ("CIA like") service:The Office of Special Affairs of the Church of Scientology ("OSA").It was LAPD Scientology Chaplain Barton who ,with Scientology (and former LAPD Officer) "Investigator" Edwin Richardson.His side-kick Frank Patty is also ex-LAPD as is Moxon & Kobrin’s "Chief Investigator" Ingram.
It was then LAPD Police Commission Chairman who the Church of Scientology used to convince Judge Williams (whose fiancée works for Scientology/OSA) to have me declared a vexatious litigant for having sued Cipriano,Barton,Miscavige and Ingram,and for being about to add Moxon and Abelson as defendants.Moxon,Rosen ,Rosen,Reeves and Lieberman then used this ruling,and other frauds upon the court,to convince Judges Snyder and Minning that the Michael Pattinson v.Church of Scientology case was factually and legally baseless as against Moxon and the Church of Scientology Technology. Consequently,the State Bar is seeking my "actual suspension" from legal practise for filing the Berry v.Cipriano and the two Pattison v. Church of Scientology,Church of Spiritual Scientology and Moxon cases. The specific charge is "maintaining an unjust action".
Scientology and certain of its lawyers engaged in the most serious and outrageous of criminal conduct against me in connection with and during the Cipriano, Barton, Miscavige ,Moxon and the Pattinson cases.They "overwhelmed" me into dismissal, obtained prevailing party costs and sanctions,levied on my bank accounts and forced me into a "no asset" bankruptcy where they continue to ceaselessly pursue me.Over half of the State Bars case to "actually suspend " me from legal practise is on the basis of my failure to pay these costs/sanctions to Moxon , Rev.Barton and OSA (Scientology).This is called "failure to obey a order." Early in 1999,I was so overwhelmed that Jane Scott took over the administration of my meager finances and dwindling income.For conviennce she did so through an account in her name but only containing my money,for paying operating expenses.I also advanced approx.$650.00 for litigation costs in connection with Michael Pattinson and another client.At the time Michael did not have the money himself.I later wrote it off along with at least $3,000.00 of other costs such as photocopying,service fees,court fees,etc.The State Bar claims I failed to pay this approx.$750.00 into my client trust account ("fuzzy" scientology math?).They have charged me with co-mingling.
And in confusion,when Barton tried to levy on my business accounts,I mistakenly paid two checks totaling approx.$5,800.00 (for fees and costs) into my business account instead of my Trust Account.I filed a successful claim of exemption stating that this money was there accidentally and were trust monies.The scientologists, and the State Bar charge me with falsely claiming that my business account was an attorney-client trust account and that therefore I am guilty of "moral turpitude", dishonesty and corruption." None of my clients lost any money .But Barton/Scientology lost their levy on those two client’s money !
It took Wager and Gerner (assisted by my former partner Stephen Lewis) two years to convince the State Bar to act upon these allegations.That has just occurred.Recently,the State Bar file was "re-assigned" to Terri Goldade,Esq. She has written Judge Marcus that "the State Bar believes that Mr.Berry should receive actual suspension.Your recommendation as to length of that suspension would be appreciated". Ms.Goldade is adament that the State Bar must act against me immediately and cannot wait until the Judge returns from vacation in three weeks.That would be after the Riverside County District Attorney’s prosecution of Keith Henson for misdemeanor terrorism - causing a sustained state of terror among 750 of the most dedicated scientologists when he carries a anti-scientology picket sign within the vision of scientology staff members.However,Mr.Henson has been protesting two potential homicides at the Scientology Headquarters base and Rehabilation Project Force in the California desert near Hemet.One death involved Moxon’s own 20 year daughter.She was electrocuted in a high voltage underground electricity bunker in a high security area on the base.The Church claim she liked Squrrils and that she was chasing a squrrill.It had gone down into the electrical bunker.The Church says that small Stacy Moxon raised a 260lb iron man hole cover all by herself,found a wooden ladder,put it down into the bunker,climbed down,closed the man hole cover after her and accidentally touched a high voltage cable.Keith Henson protests the Riverside District Attorneys refusal to invstigate.Scientology insists Henson be arrested and removed from.They claim he has threatened to lob a cruise missile over the scientology high security fences while picketing. Scientology complains to the District Attorney.The Hemet Police investigate and two officers file written reports stating no crime was committed.Paul, Hastings,Janofsky & Walker and Williams & Connally lawyers,representing the Church of Scientology, convince the District Attorney to prosecute Keith Henson and seek his imprisonment for misdemeanor terrorism.I may testify at his trial.It would be useful for the Church of Scientology and Riverside District Attorney to be able to impeach my credibility by introducing into the People v.Henson criminal trial the "actual suspension" they seek of me from the State Bar,in two days (tuesday ,April 3,2001).
As some of you may have read over the years, then U.S. District Judge Ideman recused himself from a case and testified that OSA had been harassing the judges former law clerk while he was sitting on a Church of Scientology case involving Moxon as counsel.The FBI also investigated OSA lawyers who tried to make an unannounced late night visit to a federal judge sitting on a Church of Scientology case.A number of different people have testified that Moxon was involved in the drowning of trial judge Swearinger’s dog Duke during the Wollershiem v .Church of Scientology case.And the sordid tale of extortion into silence,corruption,injustice and other travesties just goes on and on and on.It has to stop.Not because of what has been done to me but because of what has been done by certain Church of Scientology lawyers .Instead of practicing the Rules of Professional Conduct for Lawyers, they apply Scientology "Fair Game" and "ethics" (the successful elimination of ‘critics’ who scientology labels as ‘unethical criminals’).The purpose is to both punish the specific attorney opponent and discourage other lawyers from agreeing to represent those in litigation with Scientology.Thus they intentionally shrink the pool of counsel available to represent and assit those who Scientology decides to "use the law to harass" and " utterly destroy by whatever means possible."
I urgently need your help in my fight to stop this corrution,abuse and malicous damage to our legal and judicial system. I ask :
(1) that you read the two emails that accompany this letter and which are addressed to Honorable Michael D.Marcus and Palmer Brown Madden ,the President of the California State Bar and copied to members of the Board of Governors and staff of the California State Bar.If you agree with me,please immediately email or fax those two officials and as many of the other ccs as possible and state that you support and join with my request the State Bar to " open a wide-ranging public investigation into these and related matters involving other litigants and individuals who have been harmed by the lawyers included in the list of Real Parties In Interest at the top of this letter: including Moxon, Kobrin, Paquette , Abeslon, Rosen, Chaleff, Wager,Gerner and Byrnes.
(2) In addition, it would assist me in defending against "actual suspension" of my law license for the conduct described above, if I had an "extraordinary demonstration of good character of the member attested to by a wide range of references in the legal and general communities and who are aware of the full extent of the member’s [alleged] misconduct." Consequently, if you are of the opinion that I remain of "good character" would you please take the time to immediately fax Judge Marcus (copy to me) at the above address and tell him of your opinion in that regard.
[[[ I decided to make this public request for assistance only tonight{receipt of Janes friends letter,etc.For her and them.Outrageoues.
Thankyou. Have learned power of friendship and humility.How it feels to be brutalized not only by the legal system but ones own profession.Lawyers whose sense of right from wrong has been perverted by millions of dollars in fees.Oftentimes to merely place an esteemed,highly respected law firm veneer above Moxon & Kobrin upon the caption of a particular case.]]] Vex lit,jail and ..alyce.]]]
