Willy White Wins One: Judge Susan Weaver Refuses to Allow a Joint Defendant to Argue
Attorney William Z. White out of Heber Springs Arkansas played the role of plaintiff’s attorney in a kangaroo court presided over by Judge Susan Weaver on March 17, 2022. He won an outrageous default judgment against an unrepresented trust, for now.
There is no published order on the hearing yet. Mr. White might be too busy gloating to put whole sentences on paper as he was ordered to do by the court.
The way I remember it, Mr. White opened the “trial” by saying he would dismiss me as an individual and only ask for default damages against the Rural Revival Living Trust.
Judge Weaver acted as if I was already dismissed and forbid me from cross examining the plaintiff, objecting to violations like leading the witness, and presenting the evidence I had that the plaintiff had deprived me of over $260,000 by fraud.
Judge Weaver transferred title of the property in dispute from the trust to the plaintiff.
I tried to explain to Judge Weaver that the trust was not represented because every attorney I consulted said taking the case would end his career. Judge Weaver said those allegations were “unfounded”.
It does not matter if allegations of bias are unfounded. It is the appearance of bias that makes a judge’s refusal to recuse unethical.
If the trust cannot engage counsel because of the appearance of bias by the judge, then the trust is denied due process…because of the judge.
Still, Mr. White bragged himself up all weekend and into the new week.

“You really have no idea how the legal processes in the State of Arkansas work. You should be mindful of that. You have tried the whole ‘the system is against me’ approach in several of your other losing cases. How did that work out for you then?”
I’ll tell you an entertaining story.
A champion poker player was telling me about the game he was in the night before. He said he knew there were other players cheating.
I asked why he stayed if he knew the players were cheating. He said, “if they are so bad they have to cheat to win, they may win a few hands, but I will win overall. And I did.”
Sorry to be a downer to Mr. White, but a victory by default because all the attorneys I consulted with think Judge Weaver is throwing the case is not something that should make him proud.
In my mind, he looks like a pudgy bully who stole an ice-cream cone from a girl half his size.
Then as he gleefully walked down the street, licking the ball of ice-cream, he licked too hard and it fell right off the cone and landed in a pile of dog poop.
Hope Willy White enjoys his cone while he can.
