How I Cope with a Corrupt Judge Like Lee P. Rudofsky of The Federal District Court
My most popular post over the past year was “How I Cope with a Corrupt Judge Like Susan K. Weaver of Arkansas”.
One of my readers who is now a close friend led me to another mental health tool since I wrote that post. In lieu of the Doc of the Day, I am sharing a link to the website that teaches this coping device, “The Crappy Childhood Fairy“. The basic program is free.
This is a way to deal with fears and resentments by writing and meditation. (Meditation to me is akin to prayer.)
For example, I might write:
I feel resentment toward Judge Lee P. Rudofsky. I fear that he will continue to pretend to miscomprehend my arguments and testimony in order to write orders that look legitimate on their face. I fear the justices on the court of appeals will also justify showing partiality. I fear the work that is required to appeal will be a waste of time. I resent attorneys David Mitchell of Rose Law Firm, Jed Komisin and James Trefil of Troutman Pepper. I fear they will use Judge Rudofsky’s political and ideological bias to the advantage of their client, a debt collector that is notorious for using illegal or unethical litigation tactics. I fear they may force me into bankruptcy and ruin my outstanding credit. I fear that there is little justice to be had in this once great nation any longer.
Since no one will read the handwritten note before I douse it in water, wad it up and throw in the trash, I get a little more personal, too.
Next, I write my prayer to God. “I am now ready and humbly ask that you, God, remove these fears and resentments. I pray to know your will for me today, and to have the strength to carry it out.”
After the writing and symbolic release ritual, which could be burning the notes, but wetting them seems less dangerous, I sit on my yoga mat and meditate. I use the mantra “release”. Honestly, I suck at meditation. My mind always wanders back to the torment Judge Rudofsky and the Three Henchmen put me through and all the work I need to do to stop them. But, when I notice, I come back to the mantra. “Release.”
I’ve only used this technique for a week. My outlook is improving. I see that some of my fears are about losing the wonderful things I have in my life now. So, it makes sense to appreciate and enjoy those things now. And it helps me to look at the job God gave me as a gift rather than a burden. My all time most popular post was written the day the Commission on Judicial Performance made a “severe” public admonishment against Court Commissioner Alan Friedenthal, the liberal Democrat version of Judge Lee P. Rudofsky, based upon my complaint. I wouldn’t trade that victory for a million bucks. (It saved others from suffering the way my children and I did at the hand of the corrupt judge.)
I hope you gain as much from the practice as I have. If you want to share your experience privately, email bohemian_books@yahoo.com. Otherwise, feel free to comment below.
