On May 28, 2008 at 2:34 p.m. al-Hakim’s offices received a phone call from someone that identified herself as “Bernie” from the Judicial Council in San Francisco. The phone number on the caller ID was from (415) 557-1230. Bernie later stating her name was Bernadette Torivio. She said the reason for her call was that allegedly a judge named Torres or Flores had received an email regarding a complaint filed against Judge Tigar and he had contacted the Council to get a copy of the complaint and they did not have one. al-Hakim found this statement very strange since he had hand delivered it to the Judicial Council office. al-Hakim informed her that The Complaint was filed on the morning of April 11, 2008, the email contained the senders information, and had a link to the complaint to be downloaded if the alleged judge wanted a copy. She then asked the source of the email, whom sent it out and the source of the complaint that accompanied the email. al-Hakim asked her whom the judge was that wanted the copy of the complaint and she identified him as the Hon. Rogelio Flores. She asked again about the origination of the email and the accompanying complaint and she was referred back to al-Hakim. Click here to View or Download The Complaint.
On June 5, 2008 at 4:15 p.m. al-Hakim went to the Judicial Council to ascertain if they in fact did not have a copy of the complaint filed against Tigar. He arrived and was admitted into the office by someone that identified herself as Ester. He explained to her the inquiry posed by Bernie and asked her if in fact the did not have a copy of the complaint. She left for a while to look for the copy and returned puzzled that she could not readily find it. al-Hakim told her that he had another copy if they needed one but she then went back to the files. She returned and said that she had found their copy.
On June 6, 2008 al-Hakim called the Judicial Council to inform Bernie that the Council had a copy of the complaint by dialing the number Bernie left on the caller ID when she called the offices, (415) 557-1230. Bernie answered the phone, al-Hakim reintroduced himself to her, reminded her of the conversation and informed her that the Council had a copy of the complaint. She stated that she did not know what al-Hakim was talking about. al-Hakim paused and asked if she was Bernadette Torivio or goes by “Bernie”. She confirmed that she was, but she had not spoken to al-Hakim. al-Hakim asked her if she worked for the Judicial Council and if her phone number was “(415) 557-1230?” She stated that she did not work for the Judicial Council and the phone number was her personal phone number, not a Judicial Council number.
al-Hakim excused himself for the call and then redialed where upon she answered, identified herself as Bernie again and al-Hakim confirmed that he had not made a mistake in calling her at that number, nor about the conversation they had on May 28, 2008 at 2:34 p.m.
al-Hakim then called the main number for the Judicial Council and spoke with someone that identified herself as Yvette Trevino. al-Hakim explained to her the conversation that he had with Bernie on May 28, 2008; his visit to the Judicial Council office and his conversation with Ester on June 5, 2008; and the just completed two conversations with Bernie. She confirmed that indeed Bernadette Torivio who goes by “Bernie” did work at the Council, informed and assured me that Bernie could not have called me regarding a matter such as that and if she did, she should not have done so. al-Hakim gave her the (415) 557-1230 phone number he called, asked her about the need for Judge Flores to get a copy of the complaint when there was a link attached to the email or if there was a Judge Flores that was involved with the Council and wondered out loud just what Bernie’s intent and purpose was with the call to him. Trevino confirmed that there was a Judge Flores involved with the Council but doubted that he would have asked her to follow up on an email that he received to get a copy of the complaint. al-Hakim told Trevino that Bernies questions centered around the source of the email and the complaint that was attached to the email, she wanted to know how someone got the complaint and was emailed out.
It was clear that someone had put Bernie up to finding out this information as al-Hakim doubt that she simply wanted to know that information for her own edification. al-Hakim left the conversation with Trevino convinced that this was the actions Tigar in his efforts to identify the person behind the email to try to establish some legal approach to silence the public exposing of his transgressions.

Alameda County Superior Court Corruption

Tigar’s Illegal Use Of Alameda County Superior Court
To Investigate al-Hakim
Further proof of Tigars’ illegal investigation of al-Hakim is evidenced in the irrefutable examples of Tigar specifically:
1) saying “I KNOW YOUR LOVE OF FOOTBALL”. That is an unequivocal statement of fact;
2) made the comment that “some of us drive legally”;
3) the illegal investigation into the availability of Judge Leo Dorado, Dr. Michael LeNoir, and lawyer/economist/accountant Michael Ferguson and Marvin Tate at trial under the guise of determining if they could have appeared at another time to testify in his efforts to stash witness Ron Cook;
4) there is Tigar’s illegal Answers to the Challenges for Cause that he could not possibly have had access to;
5) Defendants and Defense Counsel Surveilled and Tried To Incriminate al-Hakim and;
6) The Interception, Accessing, Censure, And Damaging of al-Hakim’s U. S. Postal Mail.
1) Tigar’s “I KNOW YOUR LOVE OF FOOTBALL” Reference
In pre-trial motions,Tigar argues Defendant’s limine motion #6- al-Hakim stated that the ruling on the last motion was in error and that the order from Judge Roesch only ended the requirement to return the parties to appraisal not denying the use of the conduct and documents from the appraisal. al-Hakim further objected to Tigar hearing the limine motion, argues the lack of money provided by defendants and Defendants argued that their alleged $136,000 spent on this claim was sufficient to repair the home. Tigar argues that he is not convinced the alleged $136, 000 is adequate when al-Hakim says “what $136,000?” and as Tigar proceeds to explain his view he says to al-Hakim, “hold on your winning here, I know your penchant for football, I’m going to give you the ball with 6 seconds left on the clock for you to score”. al-Hakim stated that “I understand what your saying, I just don’t know about the $136,000”. Tigar denies the ruling on proclaiming the house a “sick home” and payment of $136K being sufficient to pay all repairs.
But what was most interesting in the exchange was Tigar’s mention that “he knew” al-Hakim’s (penchant) compassion for football. It is true and a fairly well known fact that al-Hakim is a successful businessman and respected as the first Super Agent in the sports and entertainment world. It is also true and well established that al-Hakim has worked with many Superstar players from the National Football League. It is also true and well established in this case that al-Hakim has worked with the National Football League and has a gold Cross pen set awarded to him by the NFL for his work with the Super Bowl. It is also true and well established in this case that al-Hakim has some valuable signed memorabilia from the Super Bowls and other significant sporting events. It is also well established that al-Hakim, even at over 55 years of age is still very active in playing sports, particularly competitive basketball against players much, much younger, but he is not known to be compassionate nor have a penchant for football. Tigar has some bad reconnaissance but none the less he has some and that is the problem. What has Tigar sought to find out about al-Hakim? Why?
And how? It is clear by this quip on his behalf that this his sly little way of letting al-Hakim know that “I know something about you and I have done my due diligence on you”. However in revealing this he admits more wrongdoing by conducting this improper and illegal search into al-Hakim and his background without cause or authority and at the very least has again had some questionable if not illegal ex-parte communications regarding al-Hakim, even if through a third party. This speaks volumes about Tigars conduct and portends very odious activity. But for al-Hakim this resulted in an affirmation of a signal that Tigar has been previously been advised of, that al-Hakim has been warned not to trust Tigar, he is a “snake” whom will pretend to comprehend and to be going along with your litigation theory only to turn on you. This was brought out in an earlier challenge filed by al-Hakim against Tigar.
2. Tigar “Some of Us Drive Legally”
Also, at the pre-trial hearing that al-Hakim was excused to retrieve the stolen vehicle, Tigar made the comment that “some of us drive legally”. That comment was directed at al-Hakim and clearly indicates that Tigar again has had illegal ex-parte communications, if even through a third party, and conducted an improper investigation of al-Hakim. What was the purpose of the “some of us drive legally” comment?
Clearly he has conducted his ex-parte investigation and research that he knows is illegal. (See excerpt TH: Right. You are hampered too because you can’t do ex parte factual research. If someone said this happened, you can’t check to see if it actually happened. (Tim Hallahan article p2, ¶4) JT: Exactly. (Tim Hallahan article p2, ¶5 under Ex. C)) Click here View or Download Tim Hallahan article.
3. Judge Leo Dorado Supported Charges Tigar’s Questioning and Inappropriate Inquiry Was Unjudicial Foray Upon al-Hakim’s Integrity
Tigar states in his answer to his 4th Challenge for Cause that “I have not had or sought to have any improper ex patte communication with any witness or other judge in this proceeding. In particular, Plaintiffs allegation that I sought to have an improper ex parte communication with Judge Dorado is false. (Striking Order page B-6, ¶ 12) “ Click here to View or Download 4th Challenge for Cause
Again, this answer is knowingly false, perjurious, and fraudulently that seeks to avoid Tigar having to give truthful answers that would incriminate him. To be precise the unanswered charges and evaded citations mentioned herein are all true and verified by Tigar’s intentional omission as they are unopposed, uncontroverted, irrefutable, uncontested factual evidence support and demand his disqualification.
Tigar engineered the investigation into the availability of Judge Leo Dorado, Dr. Michael LeNoir, and lawyer/economist/accountant Michael Ferguson and Marvin Tate at trial under the guise of determining if they could have appeared at another time to testify in his efforts to stash witness Ron Cook.
His staff later contacted Judge Dorado and he was forced to appear before Tigar in a hostile environment hours before he was scheduled to appear to testify. Judge Dorado informed Tigar that he was appearing of his own volution and he had selected the date and time.
Tigar states in his answer to his 4th Challenge for Cause that “During the February 1, 2008 hearing, I was attempting to anticipate all of the case management issues that might present themselves during the trial. Once I determined that plaintiff intended to call Judge Leo Dorado, I anticipated that Judge Dorado might attempt to prevent or defer his testimony because of the limitations on judges’ ability to testify. (See, e.g., Evid. Code, * 703.5 [judge in proceeding generally not competent to testify concerning that proceeding]; Code Jud. Ethics, Canon 2B(2) [judge shall not testify as a character witness]; see also D. Rothman, California Judicial Conduct Handbook (3rd ed. 2007 [suggesting that judges avoid testifying in a contested proceeding to avoid giving the appearance that the judge is lending the prestige of the office to one side or the other, and suggesting that judges consider alternatives to testifying in person].) (Striking Order page B-6, ¶ 13)”
Again, this answer is knowingly false, perjurious, and fraudulently that seeks to avoid Tigar having to give truthful answers that would incriminate him. To be precise the unanswered charges and evaded citations mentioned herein are all true and verified by Tigar’s intentional omission as they are unopposed, uncontroverted, irrefutable, uncontested factual evidence support and demand his disqualification.
Tigar engineered the investigation into the availability of Judge Leo Dorado, Dr. Michael LeNoir, and lawyer/economist/accountant Michael Ferguson and Marvin Tate at trial under the guise of determining if they could have appeared at another time to testify in his efforts to stash witness Ron Cook.
His staff later contacted Judge Dorado and he was forced to appear before Tigar in a hostile environment hours before he was scheduled to appear to testify and knew nothing about the reasoning for which he was being manipulated by Tigar as his way of trying to abort his testimony, to provide a way out for the defendants key witness Ron Cook not to testify and paint a picture of al-Hakim being an incorrigible scrouge and liar as a pretense to conduct his own investigation to establish the same.
Tigar sat back in his chair and asked Judge Dorado if he had selected the time he was to testify, whether he could have come at a different time, whether he was subpoenaed, if he was willingly to testify of his own volition.
Judge Dorado supported al-Hakim’s charges that Tigar’s questioning and inappropriate inquiry was an unjudicial foray upon al-Hakim’s integrity and his desire to portray al-Hakim as a liar! Judge Dorado had selected the time he was to testify, and he alone decided whether he could have come at a different time, stated he was not subpoenaed, and he was willingly to testify of his own volition. He confirmed that over a course of three months the records show that there were three letters(two faxed, two hand delivered), two emails with responses, two voicemail communications between al-Hakim and Judge Dorado, and one personal meeting to arrange his testimony. Dorado also said that he had reviewed the questions al-Hakim
had prepared before he appeared and found them acceptable and saw no reason judicially why he could not testify. The Appeals Court, Judicial Council and Presiding Judge Northridge MUST address this crime!
Here is an excerpt from a letter al-Hakim to Judge Leo Dorado after his testimony:
DATE: March 28, 2008
RE: Denied Trial Testimony
Dear Judge Dorado:
I want to humbly “Thank you” again for taking your very precious time on Wednesday, March 26, 2008 to appear in an attempt to testify on my behalf at the CSAA insurance company bad faith trial. There are no words that can describe my sincerest gratitude for your support. As you were made aware over a month ago, Judge Jon Tigar in Department 21 of Superior Court, County of Alameda, never wanted you to testify and he was going to manufacture a way to tamper with you as a witness and furtively created a way to do so without any justification.
Unable to finesse his way to legally cause the desired improper ex-parte communication with you, Tigar rules that I must make an offer of proof on each witness on the witness list including length of testimony and importance and Tigar could use whatever criterion he choses to decide if they can testify. In a futile gesture as such, you were allowed to take the stand but not to answer any questions. Weeks before you took the stand he stated that according to the laws and the Canons that he planned to assert Evidence Code 1101 and Judicial Cannon 2(b)(2) while ruling you could not effectively testify regarding any issue in this matter and if I were to ask any questions that attested to my character, credibility, or any other relevant matters he found objectionable that remotely delved into any issue that solely in his discretion was a gray area, he would interpret that as my willful act of contempt, whether it was or not, and I would be willfully ignoring a court order and subject to contempt on the spot and punishable with jail. Let me give you some background on the conduct of Tigar, some of which you know, in the next five instances as follows:
I was surprised to see you at 1:20 p.m. in the hallway outside the courtroom until you told me you were asked to come there by the judge. You certainly were surprised that you were told to come and knew nothing about the reasoning for which you were being manipulated. I told you then this was his way of trying to abort your testimony, to provide a way out for the defendants key witness not to testify and paint a picture of my being an incorrigible scrouge and liar as a pretense to conduct his own investigation to establish the same.
When he had you sworn and began his questioning of you by prefacing his comments with the assertion that your staff contacted his staff to ascertain what time the court wanted you to testify was his ingress to fulfill his coveted and covert motive to conduct his improper investigation. How did the contact come about between the two offices? Did someone pass on a message for your office/staff to contact Judge Tigar’s staff? We were already set for your testimony with the time that you personally chose to fit your own busy schedule at 3:00 p.m. There would have been no need to change or confirm anything with the court since you were my witness, not the courts, and we- you and I, not the court, arranged that time. My records show that there were three letters(two faxed, two hand delivered), two emails with responses, two voicemail communications between the offices, and one personal meeting to arrange your testimony.
His questioning of your being subpoenaed and if you could have come at a different time was his attempt to further demonize me as some reckless, out of control, lying, angry n*##&^ who is causing trouble in the judicial ranks! You could not help but notice the complete shock on his face when you responded that you were not subpoenaed. His cockiness dissipated even more so when you responded that you were going to testify willingly of your own volition! His inappropriate inquiry as an unjudicial foray upon my integrity failed to justify that means so he resorted to save face by stating after you left that he found that you could have come at a different time and as such I was lying to the court. Although I already know that you know that is not true, let me tell you what happened.” Click here to view or download al-Hakim Letter to Judge Leo Dorado
Tigar’s Attempted to Provoke and Taunt al-Hakim at Sidebar During Judge Leo Dorado’s Testimony With “I’m Judge Dorado now!” Comment
When al-Hakim resummed the actual testimony of Judge Dorado, Tigar then attempted to provoke and taunt al-Hakim at sidebar during Judge Leo Dorado’s testimony when he leaned back in his chair with a big grin and said “I’m Judge Dorado now!”
Tigar must answer “did he make the I’m Judge Dorado now!” comment at sidebar during Judge Leo Dorado’s testimony? If so, why?
Tigar must answer “what was the purpose the “I’m Judge Dorado now!” comment at sidebar?
Tigar must answer the charges that al-Hakim asked Tigar to repeat the “I’m Judge Dorado now!” comment and he merely ignored al-Hakim, as al-Hakim said “I wished the microphones were working to record these statements.” ?
Tigar must answer al-Hakim’s charges that Tigar’s questioning of Judge Dorado being subpoenaed and if he could have come at a different time was Tigar’s attempt to further demonize him as some reckless, out of control, lying, angry n*##&^ who is causing trouble in the judicial ranks?
Tigar must answer al-Hakim’s charges that Tigar’s questioning and inappropriate inquiry was an unjudicial foray upon al-Hakim’s integrity and his desire to portray al-Hakim as a liar that failed to justify that means so Tigar resorted to save face by stating that he found that Judge Dorado could have come at a different time and as such he determined al-Hakim was lying to the court!

4. Tigar’s Illegal Answers to the Challenges for Cause He Could Not Possibly Know
Judge Tigar had exceeded his role as an impartial adjudicator and engaged in his own investigation. Because there was no record of Judge Tigar’s conversation with the judges, al-Hakim contends the judge presumably obtained knowledge and information regarding other challenges and disqualifications from improper ex parte communications; facts and evidence of other judges involvement in this case that he is familiar with; and disputed evidentiary facts unknown to defense counsel and the plaintiff. For these reasons, and because Judge Tigar would be a material witness concerning his conversation about the prior challenges and how he obtained such information, al-Hakim contends that Judge Tigar should have been disqualified for cause pursuant to section 170.1, subdivision (a)(1) (the judge has personal knowledge of disputed evidentiary facts) and (a)(6) (a person aware of the facts reasonably might entertain a doubt whether the judge would be able to be impartial). Judge Tigar also demonstrated bias by stating at the hearing that he was denying discovery motions, contrary to the recommendations of the presiding court judge, without having considered evidence and argument on behalf of al-Hakim, and solely because he and defense counsel opposed it. His answers to the Challenges For Cause to Disqualify he as the judge in this matter further suggest that the bleeding of this information of the previous challenges into his failed answer portends the authoring of his answer by Adrianne Forshay, the “go to” person of Alameda County Superior Court administration that handles the al-Hakim case, and former law clerk for Judge Henry Needham. This is not information that Tigar would have been independently knowledgable of without an investigation of al-Hakim and illegal ex-parte communications to obtain that illicit information. Tigar fails to admit or deny al-Hakim’s allegations as required by § 170.3, subd. (c)(3). al-Hakim requested many times that Judge Tigar recuse himself in the interest of justice as per Code of Civil Procedure §170.1(a)(6)(A), and (B) in violation of the law and/or must be disqualified.
Adrianne Forshay
Adrianne Forshay, the “go to” person of Alameda County Superior Court administration that handles the al-Hakim case, the former law clerk for now Appellate Judge Henry Needham and currently law clerk for Presiding Court Judge Yolanda Northridge has had a terminal effect on the al-Hakim matter. She has singularly handled many sworn answers to the Challenges for Cause for several judges in this case with the substance of those answers finding their way into every answer that she was written for the judges that is supossed to be a private matter and is illegal to share this information among judges or any other parties.
On an occassion when Needham was serving in Alameda County Superior Court, al-Hakim attempted to have him served a challenge for cause and Forshay claimed that the judge was not present in the building. Needham later admitted that he ws in fact in chambers avoiding the expected service at the time of the attempt.
On another occassion, Forshay authored Needham’s legal answer to a challenge for cause, that as a sworn affidavit is under the penalty of perjury, that Needham either SIGNED WITHOUT READING or FORSHAY SIGNED FOR HIM! The answer sworn under the penalty of perjury contained statements that clearly Needham could not have consciously given and even more revealing could not have been given by an African-American male, that leaned toward the psychology of a masculine white female, or lesbian. The sworn answer was unaware of some basic facts such as Needham issuing the guiding order on the appraisal of al-Hakim’s insurance claim, and being Black in America, things he would not have missed. Needham was forced to admit that he had not authored the answer sworn under the penalty of perjury and that he also passed the case on to Judge Judith Ford, whom was sitting in for him, for a ruling after he discussed the matter with her. She ruled on the matter without even reading the pleadings making the exact same statement that Needham had that the pleadings did not contain any law without realizing that the pleadings contained a seperate Notice of Motion and Motion, Table of Contents that included a Table of Authorities(Law) and Statutes, Judicial Notice, Points and Authorities, and a proposed Order. Needham had done so earlier in rubberstamping a ruling by also now Appellate Judge James Richman whom also was forced to apoligize for his own indiscretions in this case that he was caught in. Needham had totally misinterpreted Richman’s ruling on it’s face without reading it and decided that his good friend could not have made the ruling in any other context. He was completely wrong and may have been following the lead of Forshay. Click on the names of Judge Needham, Judge Ford and Judge Richman to view or download their Disqualifications.
Clearly, with the perjurious answer sworn under the penalty of perjury by Needham, was NEVER authored or read by Needham, and may not have been signed by him. This was clearly the work of Forshay.
Forshay nows operates as the law clerk in Department 1 for Presiding Court Judge Yolanda Northridge whom also has had to admitt a conflict in this al-Hakim case yet continues to administer the matter.

Tigar’s Failed Answers to 4th Challenge For Cause to Disqualify
In paragraph 18 Tigar states that other than the answers he has provided, he has no knowledge of the truth or falsity of the factual allegations in the Challenge and deny them on that basis yet he has repeated lied while failing and refusing to answer to any of his statements or actions made in the Challenge by al-Hakim. Tigar will have to address the fact that he will be asked to rule on the many transgressions of not only the defendants and their counsel in this case, but the underlying case defendants, their counsels, their experts and witnesses, and all the judges named herein. The financial, political and social climate of this country in relations to racism, religious bigotry, bias, prejudice, and that of elitist class. Tigar fails to admit or deny al-Hakim’s allegations as required by § 170.3, subd. (c)(3). al-Hakim request that Judge Tigar recuse himself in the interest of justice as per Code of Civil Procedure §170.1(a)(6)(A), and (B) in violation of the law and/or must be disqualified.
In paragraph 19 Tigar states that the court should assess the credibility of al-Hakim in considering the allegation of bias against him by al-Hakim’s history of challenges against judges. If Tigar has no knowledge of this case, has only read the register of actions, how would he have any knowledge of the Challenges filed by al-Hakim and the contents of the answers filed in those challenges and the order dissolving the stay? The answers to the challenges are not public information and could not be accessed for any such purposes as his answer. This is another obvious lie and more precisely it is intended to prejudice the review of the Challenge. Along with his proud display of his self touted connections in the review of judges, he is clearly attempting to “curry favor” from a colleague for his pitiable position. How would the previously filed challenges or the order on the stay impact his actions in this matter? Why has he repeatedly failed and refused to answer his actions? Tigar fails to admit or deny al-Hakim’s allegations as required by § 170.3, subd. (c)(3). al-Hakim request that Judge Tigar recuse himself in the interest of justice as per Code of Civil Procedure §170.1(a)(6)(A), and (B) in violation of the law and/or must be disqualified.
A jury would easily convict Tigar of obstruction of justice for lying under oath in his Answer To Challenge For Cause and the written Order Striking Challenge For Cause. Tigar omitted answering most of the allegations that established that he was being purposefully evasive, deceptive, and lying under oath.
Tigar repeated and continued failing and refusing to answer and testify only darkens the cloud surrounding his statements and actions, despite the fact that his own words bear witness against his claim of not being “dishonest”. Perhaps only a grand jury will force him to truthfully answer the allegations and accept the obvious by recusing.
Tigar seems to be asking for an emotional appeal for leniency that Plaintiff believes would send the wrong message and would seem unfair to the Public. ”The message to the Public should be that you cannot lie in a court of law, even if you are a judge”.
It is well established in legal and political circles of Tigar’s ambition to become an Appellate Court Judge, not unlike the appellate judges he mentions both Richman and Needham. He has proudly acknowledged his serving in the capacity of reviewing the complaints against judges, presumably the Judicial Council or like type committee, though never mentioning any complaints against him. How many times has he ruled on the actions of another judge? Who were they? What was the outcome? Tigar fails to admit or deny Plaintiff’s allegations as required by § 170.3, subd. (c)(3). Plaintiff request that Judge Tigar recuse himself in the interest of justice as per Code of Civil Procedure §170.1(a)(6)(A), and (B) in violation of the law and/or must be disqualified.
It is with this in mind that he could not pass any objectionable test for bias or corruption by any member of the general public. When one considers that he will be asked to preside over the actions of ALL the judges he mentions, it is not possible that he would not “rubber stamp” their transgressions as a matter already decided, though by another judge like him, NOT THE GENERAL PUBLIC AS STATED IN LAW!. Tigar fails to admit or deny al-Hakim’s allegations as required by § 170.3, subd. (c)(3). al-Hakim request that Judge Tigar recuse himself in the interest of justice as per Code of Civil Procedure §170.1(a)(6)(A), and (B) in violation of the law and/or must be disqualified.
In paragraph 13 Tigar states that none of his actions was motivated by nor demonstrate any bias on the basis of religion. To this point Tigar has not admitted that he has committed any actions at all, much less any that might be those of a bigot! Tigar refuses and fails to understand that if you are elitist you are bias, prejudice, racist and a bigot. All these same ignorant schisms stem from the illusion of being “Superior”, not just different, but better than everyone else, and in his case above the law without cause to properly respond to the ever pending question “What did he say?” and how are his actions referenced in Paragraph 5 above not clearly indicative of his taint as charged therein?. It is well established that Tigar is being dishonest and again human nature is such that if you will lie you will steal! As a judge when you lie you are stealing someone’s truth, their rights, their justice, their life, their equity, their freedom! Tigar will never serve before me. Tigar fails to admit or deny al-Hakim’s allegations as required by § 170.3, subd. (c)(3). al-Hakim request that Judge Tigar recuse himself in the interest of justice as per Code of Civil Procedure §170.1(a)(6)(A), and (B) in violation of the law and/or must be disqualified.
The worst type of elitist, bias, prejudice, racist, bigot is the one that thinks that he can deceive and fool everyone, feels he is above suspicion, has no obligation to defend his actions and attitude, in a more blatant display ignores it, or in worst case in so ignorant in his actions of ignorance that he is oblivious to them. Tigar is not that ignorant! Tigar fails to admit or deny al-Hakim’s allegations as required by § 170.3, subd. (c)(3). al-Hakim request that Judge Tigar recuse himself in the interest of justice as per Code of Civil Procedure §170.1(a)(6)(A), and (B) in violation of the law and/or must be disqualified.
In paragraph 14 Tigar states that he has no personal relationship with any of the judges James Richman, David C. Lee, Richard Hodge and Michael Ballachey, however again does not respond regarding his relationship with Oakland City Attorneys John Russo, Mark Morodomi, Randy Hall, Janie Wong, Anita Hong, Sophia Li, Demetruis Shelton, Elizabeth Allen, Erica Harrold, Michele Abney, former Oakland City Attorney Jane Williams and former Senior Investigator Pat Smith. He does mention that he socializes with the judges at events but has never discussed the al-Hakim case with them. Well, whom has he discussed the al-Hakim case with? Further, with whom, when and what has he discussed al-Hakim or any al-Hakim related issues? Tigar fails to admit or deny al-Hakim’s allegations as required by §170.3, subd. (c)(3). Plaintiff request that Judge Tigar recuse himself in the interest of justice as per Code of Civil Procedure §170.1(a)(6)(A), and (B) in violation of the law and/or must be disqualified.
In paragraph 16 Tigar states that he works hard to create an environment of comfort for parties to be heard and provides a letter from an attorney to support his contention. As to this plaintiff, Tigar has failed that self imposed standard, does not comport with his actions and would defies all logic in consideration of this reply contained herein at paragraphs 1-9 and particularly paragraph. 4 and 5. The real question is “How many complaints has Tigar had over the years?”.
In al-Hakim’s investigation of Tigar, there was two references of reptiles that crawl on their bellies that was used to describe his character.
One was a chameleon as he changes color to blend into the litigation strategy of a party and the other was a snake as he would then raise up and bite you in the back! He can not be trusted with the truth or the law! The other prevalent comment was “his father he is NOT!”. Tigar fails to admit or deny al-Hakim’s allegations as required by § 170.3, subd. (c)(3). al-Hakim request that Judge Tigar recuse himself in the interest of justice as per Code of Civil Procedure §170.1(a)(6)(A), and (B) in violation of the law and/or must be disqualified.

Potential Serious Conflicts of Interests Must Be Disclosed By All Parties, Including the Defendants and Defense Counsel Firms and Both Judges Tigar and Atack
Serious Conflicts of Interests Must Be Disclosed By All Parties, Including the Defendants, Defense Counsel Firms, the herein named and unnamed parties including Judges, the court administration, State Judicial disciplinary and regulatory bodies, the other associated State and Federal Government Agencies (Click here to View or Download Seventh Challenge For Cause, Sect.1 ¶18, pg 70)
Those that fall directly under scrutiny among his colleagues are now Appellate Judges Barbara Jones, James Richman, and Henry Needham and Superior Court Judge Frank Roesch whom had disqualifications or complaints filed against them with cover and sanctuary provide by Ronald M. George of The California Supreme Court, Victoria Henley of The California Judicial Council, Ronald G. Overholt of The California Judges Association, The Alameda County Presiding Court Judge Yolanda Northridge and former Alameda County Presiding Court Judge George Hernandez that portrays corruption. Others known to have been involved in highly questionable activities are Adrianne Forshay of Alameda County Superior Court administration; Bernadette M. Torivo of the Judicial Council; Diana Herbert and Mary Quilez of the Appeals court. Each of you, your staff members and administration personnel were actively involved in, knew about or should have known about the many charges against Tigar established herein and avoided, failed and refused to do anything about them, instead you provided cover for the transgressions. I can and will provide more evidence if these charges are not acted upon with some sincerity.
The politically connected Tigar and partner at the politically owned San Francisco law firm Keker & Van Nest, (See Jahna Berry article p1, ¶2, Click here to View or Download ) sits on the Judicial Council panel that reviews Challenges for Cause filed against judges, teaches various courses for judges, serves on committees for the Judicial Council and the American Law Institute, and serves as a tutor and moot court judge for various schools and organizations (See Tim Hallahan article p1, ¶3, Click here to View or Download), was the Superior court calendaring judge, in the court systems at all levels.
Tigar serves in several capacities in the State and Northern California Judicial system, and he may well be associates, friends, and acquaintances with Judge Atack, whom rule on his challenge, and other judges Lee, Ballachey, Hodge, Roesch, Ford, Needham, Richman, Freeman, Northridge, George, Commissioners Oleon and Culver, Victoria Henley of the Judicial Council, Attorney General Jerry Brown, District Attorney Tom Orloff, the defendants and defense counsel firms and his fathers potential impact upon this case with his associates, friends, and acquaintances with related parties including Pete McKloskey, the Oakland City Attorney’s Office, and the law firm of Wendel Rosen (See ACBA flyer to “Meet the Direct Calendar Judges” with Tigar, View or Download in December 2008 Complaint For Censure). Defendants Randy Willoughby, Alex Stuart, Brad Bening, and defense counsel Stephan Barber and many members of the Ropers Majeski law firm are ALL members of various legal committees and associations and ALL serve in a quasi judicial (commissioner, judge pro-tem) capacity in the Northern California judicial system up through the federal court system. Therein lies some potential serious conflicts of interests that must be disclosed by all the parties named and unnamed herein, including the defendants and defense counsel and both Judges Tigar and Atack as judges are obliged to disclose significant or substantial relationships with the parties and
Tigar’s father, Michael Tigar’s, potential impact upon this case with his associates, Keker & Van Nest law firm, Gordon and Rees law firm, Burnham Brown law firm, James McConigal, the Feeney Law firm, other law firms, friends, and acquaintances with related parties. Due to this prior involvement and his relationships, Tigar must and has failed to provide a full written disclosure as required under California Code of Civil Procedure §170.1(a)(6)(A), and (B) in violation of the law and must be disqualified. Tigar fails to admit or deny al-Hakim’s allegations as required by § 170.3, subd. (c)(3) and al-Hakim requested that Judge Tigar recuse himself in the interest of justice as per Code of Civil Procedure §170.1(a)(6)(A), and (B) in violation of the law and/or must be disqualified. Tigar freely admits that judges talk to each other. (See excerpt below from Tim Hallahan article p2, ¶6):
THallahan: Do you judges (talk) to each other about lawyers’ credibility?
JTigar: Yes. Absolutely. We talk to each other all the time. Just like lawyers talk about judges. Your reputation may precede you in that way, both positively and negatively. You can build your credibility and I think you can build a reputation with a court that way. (Click here to View or Download Tim Hallahan article)
The record is clear, Tigar’s lying and arrogance of being above the law and not having to answer the allegation is again a prime example of the misconduct and conduct prejudicial demonstrated by his discrimination through white elitist privilege and class; the cavalier attitude; the racism and bias, bad faith; this suggested denial of due process; suggested obstruction of justice; has exhibited, expressed and shown a fixed opinion; openly displayed favoritism towards certain parties in litigation; openly made accusations of parties conduct; displayed disdain and a mental attitude or disposition of prejudice was painfully obvious as he openly exhibited this in the courtroom without regard to who heard and saw it.
“We are fast approaching the stage of the ultimate inversion: the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens may act only by permission; which is the stage of the darkest periods of human history, the stage of rule by brute force. “ : Ayn Rand in “The Nature of Government”
5. Defendants and Defense Counsel Surveilled and Tried To Incriminate al-Hakim
In 1999 the defendants went to the Oakland Police Department and tried to convince them to prosecute al-Hakim for crimes unknown and they were rebuffed as there was no evidence of any crime.
In 1999 the defendants also went to the California State Department of Insurance and tried to convince them to prosecute al-Hakim for crimes unknown and again they were rebuffed as there was no evidence of any crime.
Defendants and defense counsel admitted as far back as 1999 that they had been surveilling al-Hakim, thou did so without any reason, provocation, or contractual basis, and allegedly that they destroyed the videos and reconnaissance data gathered. Why would the defendants in a home contamination case be interested in surveilling an insured nearly three years AFTER the incident had occurred? What did they expect to find of any relevance to the contamnation case? What was the true purpose and intent of the surveillance and the use of what they hoped to find? How was the reconnaissance of any value to them? What truly happened to all the information, videos and data collected and why?
6. The Interception, Accessing, Censorship, Damaging And Non-Delivery of al-Hakim’s U. S. Postal Mail
For years now al-Hakim has had to grapple with the fact that his company and personal mail has been intercepted, opened, held at the post office, and delivered in damaged packaging that was not the original letter enevelope or wrapping. al-Hakim has even had EXPRESS MAIL, with SPECIAL OVERNIGHT DELIVERY undelivered and held at the post office without notice to him! It is a certainty that his exposing this corporate, attorney, judicial and governmental corruption is directly related to this illegal censorship as the finger prints of these parties involvement are all over this action.
Tigar Employed The Sheriff’s Office To Investigate al-Hakim
One could not help but notice, there was and has been at least one sheriff in the courtroom since February 2008 in Tigar’s attempt to intimidate and instill fear in al-Hakim to discourage his continuing to reveal the truth about Tigar’s own indiscretions. al-Hakim is bound by the truth and as he has told Tigar, the truth will not change because Tigar does not like it, it does not cease to exist because Tigar choses to ignore it, and Tigar can not order a lie to be the truth because it suits Tigar’s needs! The truth is and will always be just that, the truth! Tigar has demonstrated that the truth is something that he can not face in this matter so he has vigorously pursued his cause to cast al-Hakim as villainous and defame al-Hakim to justify his planned charges of perjury and contempt with a litany of others stemming from the unanswered challenges.
On April 14, 2008 at 9:00 a.m. when al-Hakim entered the courthouse building, the deputy at the metal detector called upstairs to the courtroom, Department 21 to inform them of al-Hakim’s arrival in the building. There al-Hakim received the minutes of the trial ending order stating that al-Hakim has voluntarily absented himself. By, Wednesday, April 9, 2008 at 3:12 p.m. the court was well aware that al-Hakim was at a Janaazah (funeral) at that very same moment!
Perhaps more exemplary of the vindictive nature of Tigar, these minutes were allegedly recorded and entered on April 9, 2008 yet they were never mailed to al-Hakim, instead they were held by the court until al-Hakim appeared for trial on April 14, 2008 unknowing that the trial had been concluded in his absence.
Tigar obviously thought this stunt would shock and enrage al-Hakim and there would be violence which explains the presence of TWO armed Sheriffs in the courtroom and Tigar was not visible. To Tigar’s dismay, that did not occur.
Tigar obviously complained to court administration and law enforcement authorities of al-Hakim’s alleged behavior as threatening which is why there was at least one, and sometimes, two deputies in the courtroom at all times whenever al-Hakim was scheduled or expected to appear in the courtroom. His depiction of al-Hakim as some type of a “judicial terrorist” or threat was obviously to place al-Hakim on a “watch list”.
His lodging of this unjustified complaint was to have the armed guards in the courtroom as a show of force to instill fear and intimidate al-Hakim and to simply cover for his continued taunting and threatening of al-Hakim in his attempt to provoke a negative response from al-Hakim to order his arrest and jail him. This was part of a clearly established and orchestrated scheme on the part of Tigar and his
co-defense counsel and defendant Stephan Barber as he also suddenly began getting escorts from the Sheriff’s Deputy’s as he exited the courtroom. Obviously he had done as Tigar had and complained to some legal/law enforcement body to get security to and from the courtroom! On one occassion after exiting the courtroom to a the elevator, al-Hakim turns to see Barber with TWO armed deputies stationed beside him. When the elevator arrives and al-Hakim boards it, he’s surprised when the three of them enter as they had never riden the elevator with him before. After boarding and positioning themselves in such a way as to encroach upon al-Hakim’s personal space in an provocative act of imtimidation, the Negro officer asked in a demeaning, threatening manner “how you feel al-Hakim!?”. This person has seen al-Hakim for months and never spoke a single word to him in the past, even while they were standing or sitting alone! Amazing!!
Throughout this case, not just the trial, al-Hakim has heard the terrifying drumbeat of fear cast from the Judges in the form of loud, well-advertised rumor portraying al-Hakim as a “hothead”, incorrigible scrouge and liar with orchestrated chanting of “he (al-Hakim) attacks judges” supported by incalculable erroneous rulings and illegal ex-parte communications, all calculated to gain the attention of the legal community, and Judicial support for this war against al-Hakim.
Tigar Delayed Calling Case Until Sherriffs Deputies In Court Room!
On several occassions of al-Hakim appearing before Tigar, he would alert the clerk and attendant upon seeing al-Hakim in the courtroom and intentionally delay calling the case until such time as the Sherriffs Deputies arrived in the courtroom.
Case History
This is an 11 year; contentious action; the largest case file in the history of the Superior Court of Alameda County, over 60 file boxes; over 200 motions and responses; plaintiff had over 300 exhibits; over 5,000 pages of exhibits; over 3,000 pages of documents for rebuttal argument; 20 expert witnesses; 77 other witnesses; over 100 pages of jury instructions; over 10 Judicial Challenges for Cause(Disqualification); numerous allegations of judicial misconduct, where EVERY judge in this case has admitted error, committed perjury, recused themselves, or all three!
al-Hakim would not let go of his determination to have Tigar held to account for his lies, calumny deceit, misconduct, bias and bigotry that led to the retaliation based contempt charge so Tigar created a scene in which to prompt a charge. al-Hakim is further accusing Tigar of deceiving the Superior Court, Sheriff’s Department and the local Judiciary bodies of the Appeals Courts and Judicial Council to convince them to authorize his covert obliteration of al-Hakim’s civil rights and right to due process and planned mission of incarceration from Tigar’s provoked contempt charge based on falsehoods about the threat of al-Hakim to Tigar. Tigar is not that important even to himself! In his indictment against al-Hakim, Tigar acted as his own victim, sole eye witness, custodian of the evidence, chief prosecutor, judge, jury, and sentencing judge in a separate but simultaneous unannounced trial against al-Hakim. These are very destructive actions in more ways than we can conceive and incorporates savage behavior into Tigar’s repertoire.
In his conduct while acting as judge in this case, Tigar is in violation of his constitutional oath to faithfully execute the position of Judge and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty ”to take care that the laws be faithfully executed“, Tigar’s deceiving of the Superior Court, Sheriff’s Department and the local Judiciary bodies of the Appeals Courts and Judicial Council with fabricated threats of possible violence from al-Hakim in order to fraudulently obtain support for an authorization of the use of surveillance and police force against al-Hakim and used that fraudulently obtained authorization, then acting in his capacity as a judge, to conduct his own special combat against al-Hakim.
al-Hakim is grateful that he has the ears and eyes of other political bodies watching and monitoring this situation for various committees, including the Judiciary Committee and there is promise they may soon hold meetings on his concern.
