Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices of the Supreme Court are committing an impeachable offense by covering up criminal misconduct that occurred in the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals and the US District Court in San Jose
The Supreme Court poses a greater threat to the Constitution, democracy and the rule of law than the President and Congress combined because it covers up criminal misconduct and corruption in our lower federal courts. In February of 2025, I sent a report to each of the Justices of the Supreme Court documenting criminal misconduct by officials with the City of San Jose, my former attorney, the US District Court in San Jose and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals during litigation of a discrimination lawsuit I filed against the City of San Jose. I am black/African American. The report presents indisputable facts and evidence that my attorney (Stuart Kirchick) conspired with the attorney for the City of San Jose (Michael Dodson) to perpetrate fraud on the US District Court in San Jose with the specific intent to obstruct justice. The fraud consisted of a joint case management statement making false claims as to facts, and a joint stipulation of dismissal of a defendant without my consent and without a settlement agreement. That defendant had clearly violated my constitutional rights to due process that are enshrined in California law. The report presents evidence that judges and court officials in the US District Court in San Jose and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals were complicit in the fraud by my attorney and San Jose city officials.
The report presents evidence that the US District Court in San Jose knowingly and intentionally violated the Constitution, federal statutory law and precedent of the Supreme Court and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. The specific intent of the court was to obstruct justice by covering up the discriminatory and racist decision of San Jose city officials to deprive me of my due process rights when denying me a CCW permit upon my medical disability retirement from the San Jose Police Department as a sergeant. The report presents evidence proving that San Jose police officials committed perjury in their depositions, and in a declaration in support of the City's motion for summary judgment. Irrefutable evidence is also presented in the report that a judge and court officials in the US District Court in San Jose falsified docket entries in order to stage a fake hearing, without my knowledge, with a fake transcript and civil minutes on a motion for relief I filed. These are very serious felonies that completely undermine our judicial system, our democracy, and the rule of law.
Despite the overwhelming evidence of the fraud and criminal misconduct of San Jose city officials, my attorney, the US District Court in San Jose and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, Chief Justice Robert and the eight other Justices of the Supreme Court refused to take any action on a complaint report I sent to each detailing the misconduct of the above officials. It should also be noted that the Supreme Court denied a writ of certiorari I filed in 2023 that documents the fraud by the City of San Jose, violations of the law and precedent by the US District Court in San Jose and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, as well as bias by both courts.
Chief Justice Roberts and the Supreme Court's blatant cover up of the criminal obstruction of justice by the City of San Jose, my attorney, the US District Court in San Jose and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals is impeachable under the US constitution. Below is a link to my website with a copy of the report and letters I submitted to the Supreme Court and Congress in February 2025 documenting the criminal misconduct of San Jose city officials, my attorney, the US District Court in San Jose and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals:
