Pro Se litigants:

"Deprived of life, liberty or property without due process."
Judges:

"Refuse to operate within the law and provide fair procedures".
ACCESS TO JUSTICE

Access to justice has eroded. Pro Se litigants are discouraged and denied rights with the intent to sabotage pro se litigants access to justice. These biases exists in direct contradiction to the Supreme Court ruling in Faretta v. California; "that everyone has the constitutional right to proceed without counsel".

Olmstad v. United States, (1928) 277 U.S. 438
"Crime is contagious. If the Government becomes a lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites everyone to become a law unto himself, it invites anarchy".

District Court of Maryland Loss of the Honorable Judge Convoy, Jr.

JUDGES ATTITUDES TOWARDS PRO SE LITIGANTS

"Judges rule with a view to the private interest"
Perverted forms of systematic corruptions 

Judges "shall accord to every person who has a legal interest in a proceeding... the right to be heard according to the law" (Canon 3 Sec. B4)

I am sorry for the lost of Judge Conroy, Jr., who was a Judge at the District Court of Maryland. I pray the strength for his wife, family and loved ones as they grieve their loss.

I discovered that the Judge was deceased in the newspaper while no one informed me from the District Court of Maryland that Judge Conroy, Jr., was deceased. For some reason I was waiting for an officer from the courts to inform me but I expect too much integrity from the District Court in Montgomery County.

Now, I understand why the Honorable Judge Wolfe desire to bury my case on the behalf of his private interest.... disregarding justice. Judge Wolfe has his own biases with women, low-income and pro se litigants ( distinct anti-pro se litigant sentiment). The Honorable judge, the administrative judge fails to improve the numbers of outcomes and to improve the access to justice in Montgomery County. Minorities are still the highest in traffic violations with large fines, unsuccessful in criminal and civil cases with negative outcomes against gender, income, race and ethnic litigants in Montgomery County. The traffic court is segregated as the officers (mostly white males) sit on one side of the court while minorities, low-income and white women (black females has the highest stops in Montgomery County) sits on the other side.....very  intimidating and segregated environment.
(In 2002, Court of Appeals created an Anti- Bias Commission that studies provided that gender and racial bias have a major negative impact in Maryland Judicial system). The disparity still exists today in 2014. You can assume that hiring minorities could be more damaging because they use their ethnicity to abuse the system against other minorities.

As the court administrator, the court clerks intentionally withhold information from non-lawyers that they routinely give to lawyers. If a lawyer calls to request a particular procedure the clerk with provide answers. However, if a pro se litigant request the same information it becomes suddenly "no answer" or don't provide legal advice or tell misinformation with malicious intent. Even if they have a window for pro se litigants there is no real assistance or even civility. They have an instant attitude snatching papers as if you are bothering them and it's apart of their job to greet the public. Records are munipulated and documents are mailed late intentionally. Ex-parte communication is acceptable. They intentionally do everything to discourage pro se litigants from exercising their rights for justice. Judges have a duty to assure that court officials "refrain from manifesting bias or prejudice in the performance of their official duties" (Canon 3, Sec C2) The latter provision suggests a duty upon judges generally and especially administrative judges, to assure their court staff provide assistance in an impartial manner.

There is no accountability for judges actions as they believes that they are "Above the Law" therefore he can use the judicial platform to suppress the law. The court room shouldn't be a place for situational ethics. Cannon v. Commission on Judicial Qualifications (1975) 14 Cal: 3d 678 694 " Acts in excess of judicial authority constitutes misconduct, particularly where a judge deliberately disregards the requirements of fairness and due process.

Maryland District Court in Montgomery County

During trail, the Maryland district court judge was favorable to the defendants which I am not surprised. I was the plaintiff and the defendants fabricated throughout the trail which the Judge permitted. I was a pro se litigant representing myself  and I failed to research the history of the Maryland Court system and Montgomery County.  I discovered that Montgomery County haven't been friendly to the low-income community, minorities and women.(See Administrative order creating a anti-bias commission, 2002), this to ensure gender, racial and ethnic fairness.  I had complained about a white landlord in a predominately minority community which he retaliated against me because I filed a complaint of inhabitable living conditions which my apartment failed inspection. The Judge was favorable to the landlord because of his own biases not because they won legitimately.

The Judge allowed his human nature to supersede justice therefore he was bias against me because of reasons of my income classification, race, gender and religion. I was in court from 8:00 am until 2:00 pm while he showed favoritism when the defendant's lawyer was late. Judge Conroy tried to intimidate me yet I stood up against the fabrication and bias remarks of corruptive behavior and actions. He used these aggressive measures to deny my rights because of the history of Montgomery county of stigmatism and stereotyping towards certain class of citizens is perpetuated through the institutionalized legality of unfair treatment.

Judge Conroy informed me that I need a lawyer without acknowledging that "pro se" litigants (self representation) is legal and Constitutional. Elmore v. McCammon (1986) " the right to file a lawsuit pro se is one of the most important rights under the constitution and laws".  Judge Conroy refuse to allow me to read and cross examine the evidence that the defendants produced. The Judge claimed that I didn't breach my lease when it states on the notice to vacat that I violated the terms of lease and refer to B.3, B.4, 5,6,8 & 9 of my lease agreement. However the defendant's alleged that I had an unauthorized visitor and violated peaceful enjoyment agreement. I had gave court documents concerning a tenant who threaten me which I was granted a peace order from the court. In addition, proved that I had no one living with me, the defendants retaliated against me because I file a claim against them.

Judge Conroy yelled and screamed during trail and turning red in the face, (Judges have a duty under Canon 3) "To be patient, dignified and courteous to litigants" (Section B4) I was the pro se litigant plaintiff and the defendant was represented by an attorney fabricating in Court swearing under oath promising God to tell the truth". Judges manipulating and suppressing the truth, manufacturing facts, mischaracterize pleadings and engage in ex-parte communication. Gonzalez v. Commission on Judicial Performance (1983) 33 Cal. 3d 270, 286.

I encourage anyone who has no funds for an attorney don't allow these Judges in Montgomery County to intimidate you from your Constitutional rights. You have a right to fight for your rightful place in the judicial system. Regardless the erosion of civil liberties that corresponds to the marginalization or undermining your constitutional rights within the Maryland Court system; please remember the State of Maryland has a low integrity rate with the government activities which includes the court system.
