LAPDOG'S COURT REPORTER AND MISTRESS BENEFITS FROM WORKING "UNDER" HIM !

Shown below is the THIRTY-NINTH AND FINAL installment of the MOTION TO DISMISS WITH PREJUDICE ON THE GROUNDS OF PROSECUTORIAL AND JUDICIAL BAD FAITH AND MISCONDUCT, which LAPDOG "PUBLIUS" COLLIER and the Republicrats at the Medina County Courthouse, Mosque & Railroad Station do not want you, the citizens, to see.  You can cross-reference any exhibits to the List of Exhibits by "CLICKING" on the link shown directly below "PAGES" at the upper right-hand corner of the web page:

Judge Collier Has Facilitated Apparent Thefts of Public Funds By His Court Reporter and Mistress, Donna Garrity.

The law is well settled that a court speaks through its docket.  The Ohio Supreme Court has "repeatedly stated that a court speaks exclusively through its journal entries." (citation omitted).  State v. Hawkins, 9^th Dist. No. 11CA0007, 2011-Ohio-6197, ¶ 7.

Inspector Hartman has reviewed a substantial number of cases, tried before Judge Collier, found at the website of the Clerk of the Medina County Court of Common Pleas.  During those reviews, Inspector Hartman has discovered that Judge Collier’s court reporter has made numerous claims for compensation for “services” that are not supported by the docket.

Donna Garrity has been charging fees of $25.00 for each of her appearances in court when the dockets of individual cases fail to show any court activity on the claimed dates.  It is apparent that Judge Collier has turned a blind eye to the apparent thefts of pubic funds by his mistress, court reporter Donna Garrity.  Actually, he has facilitated her thefts because he is the listed judge for the alleged hearings.

Presented below are a limited number of examples, in no particular order, which likely will reveal a larger scheme to defraud taxpayers, upon a more thorough investigation and review:

A.  State v. Kyle Miller, Medina Case No. 12CR0097, Judge Collier

The docket in Case No. 12CR0097, State v. Kyle Miller, contains an entry on July 18, 2014, “CERT FOR COURT STENOGRAPHER’S FEES.”  A copy of the Certificate for Court Stenographer’s Fees submitted by Donna Garrity, reveals that Garrity claimed payment in the amount of  $25.00 for her “services” on July 18, 2014.

The docket does not record any case activity, in court or otherwise, on July 18, 2014.  In fact, the prior docket entry, dated August 9, 2013, is also recorded as “CERT FOR COURT STENOGRAPHER’S FEES.”

A copy of the docket of Case No. 12CR0097, along with a copy of Donna Garrity’s Certificate for Court Stenographer’s Fees, dated July 18, 2014, is attached as Exhibit Forty-Six.

B.  State v. Lynn Vandeusen, Medina Case No. 12CR0388, Judge Collier

The docket in Case No. 12CR0388, State v. Lynn Vandeusen, contains an entry on April 15, 2014, “CERT FOR COURT STENOGRAPHER’S FEES.”  A copy of the Certificate for Court Stenographer’s Fees submitted by Donna Garrity, reveals that Garrity claimed payment in the amount of  $25.00 for her “services” on April 15, 2013.

The docket entry for the same date, April 15, 2013, records “SENTENCING.”  The Sentencing Entry, docketed on April 29, 2013, reveals that Ms. Vandeusen was actually sentenced on April 22, 2013.

There was no sentencing on April 15, 2013, the date on which Donna Garrity claimed payment in the amount of $25.00 from public funds.

A copy of the docket and sentencing entry, along with Garrity’s Certificate for Court Stenographer’s Fees, dated April 15, 2013, are all attached as Exhibit Forty-Seven.

C.  State v. Clegg, Medina Case No. 13CR0126, Judge Collier

The docket entry in Case No. 13CR0126, dated May 30, 2013, records “PRE TRIAL.”  On June 3, 2013, the date of the next docket entry, the docket records, “CERT FOR COURT STENOGRAPHER’S FEES.”  A copy of the Certificate for Court Stenographer’s Fees submitted by Donna Garrity, reveals that Garrity claimed payment in the amount of  $25.00 for her “services” on June 3, 2013.

The docket fails to identify any activity in this case on, or prior to, June 3, 2013, with the exception of the May 30 pre-trial, which normally is an informal meeting of attorneys during which the judge does not take the bench.

A copy of the docket in Case No. 13CR0126, along with Garrity’s Certificate for Court Stenographer’s Fees, dated June 3, 2013, are attached as Exhibit Forty-Eight.

Mr. Hartman has presented a sampling of evidence of apparent false billings by Donna Garrity, supported by case dockets, in the following Medina County criminal cases:

State v. Kyle Miller, Medina Case No. 12CR0097, Judge Collier;

State v. Lynn Vandeusen, Medina Case No. 12CR0388, Judge Collier;

State v. Clegg, Medina Case No. 13CR0126, Judge Collier;
