Corruption
of the courts and the legal profession is central to the
socio-economic crisis in Israel
Conduct
of the Israeli Supreme Court, led by Presiding Justice Ashe Grunis in
the Ashkenazi petition, should be deemed fraud, breach of loyalty,
violation of oaths of office, and patronage by the Israeli Supreme
Court of organized state crime in the debtors' courts.
It should be noted that conduct of simulated litigation is an extra-judicial activity -- criminality that is not covered by any immunity.
According to the 2012 Annual Report of the Israeli
Enforcement and Collection Authority:
-
In a nation of some 8 millions, there were almost 2.8 million open cases in 2012. Assuming that each case affects a household of more than one person, it is likely that an unbelievable half of the residents of the State of Israel, or more, are currently victims of the State perpetrated fraud in the debtors courts!
-
Over 90% of the debtors are individuals, and 60% of the cases are opened by banks and corporations as debt-holders.
-
Almost 95% of the debtors are not represented by an attorney, but almost 95% of debt-holders are represented.
Unprecedented corruption of the Israeli courts over the past decade is closely correlated with the vast increase in poverty and homelessness, and wide gap in asset and income distribution in Israel. The routine fraud in debtors' courts is central to such conditions, and has been the subject of routine protests and demonstrations with no response at all by the Israeli authorities.
Such conditions in the Israeli courts -- routine fraud on the people by banks, judges, and attorneys, are remarkably similar to conditions in the United States today, as the foreclosure-fraud epidemic. And as is the case in the State of Israel today, US experts opine that the scope of fraud in the courts in the United States today is unprecedented.
The
Israeli High Court of Justice -- national court for protection of
rights -- is effectively closed for over ten years
The
Israeli Supreme Court and the Israeli High Court of Justice should be
deemed incompetent courts. They have run for over ten years with no
lawfully appointed "Chief Clerk". The Israeli courts themselves
ruled that a court with no lawful Office of the Clerk is an
incompetent court.
On October 31, 2013, "Chief Clerk" Sarah
Lifschitz "departed" from the Supreme Court. The "departure"
of Ms Lifschitz followed the filing on October 15, 2013, with the
Israel Police and the Israeli Attorney General of a criminal fraud
complaint against Presiding Justice Asher Grunis, relative to the
false appearance of Ms Lifschitz for over 10 years, as "Chief
Clerk", with no lawful appointment.
In recent days, Ms Idit Meloul has been listed as "Chief Clerk" on the web site of the Israeli Supreme Court. However, there is no official publication of her appointment in the official State Register (Reshumot), and Israeli media remain entirely mum on the departure of Ms Lifschitz from the Supreme Court and the purported appointment of Ms Meloul as Chief Clerk. Response by Presiding Justice Grunis is still pending on a request for a copy of Ms Meloul's appointment record...
The Ashkenazi petition vividly
shows how the Israeli national tribunal for protection of rights --
the High Court of Justice -- operating with no lawful Office of the
Clerk, is effectively closed.
Presiding
Justice Asher Grunis must resign
Current
conditions in the Israeli Supreme Court are a constitutional crisis
in a nation with no constitution.
