QUESTIONS PRESENTED
Does the presumption of innocence and due process mean that if a judge will not
read everything Mr. Verkler, the Defendant in a criminal case submits to the court, or if the
prosecution admits that American is actually innocent that the judge must rule in favor of
the Defendant?
Doesn’t a defendant in a criminal case have the right to assistance of counsel?
Doesn’t an American defendant in a criminal case have the right to effective
assistance of legal counsel?
How many times does Mr. Verkler have to win his case before it sticks?
Doesn’t Mr. Verkler as a defendant in a criminal case have the right to appeal and
attack a completely unconstitutional, illegal, baseless and unjust decision?
Since USA breached the plea contract and refuses to remedy the breach can’t Mr.
Verkler rescind the contract and withdraw the guilty plea?
Can USA add to a defendant’s sentence without a court proceeding?
Doesn’t a US/Washington State citizen have any protection under the Constitution
and Laws?
Isn’t it true that there is nothing in the U.S. Constitution or federal law that gives
the government or anyone in the government authority to commit a crime, a tort, conspire
or he against an American?

representation under a plan approved under subsection (a) appears without
counsel, the United States magistrate judge or the court shall advise the person
that he has the right to be represented by counsel and that counsel will be
appointed to represent him if he is financially unable to obtain counsel.
Unless the person waives representation by counsel, the United States
magistrate judge or the court, if satisfied after appropriate inquiry that the
person is financially unable to obtain counsel, shall appoint counsel to
represent him. Such appointment may be made retroactive to include any

the United States magistrate judge or the court finds that the person is
financially able to obtain counsel or to make partial payment for the
representation, it may terminate the appointment of counsel or authorize
payment as provided in subsection (f), as the interests of justice may dictate. If
at any stage of the proceedings, including an appeal, the United States
magistrate judge or the court finds that the person is financially unable to pay
counsel whom he had retained, it may appoint counsel as provided in
subsection (b) and authorize payment as provided in subsection (d), as the
interests of justice may dictate. The United States magistrate judge or the court
may, in the interests of justice, substitute one appointed counsel for another at
any stage of the proceedings....

STATEMENT OF THE CASE
Multiple official representatives of USA made a written legally binding official
admission to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals:
1) USA and the courts repeatedly engaged in fraud for obtaining wealth by means of false or
fraudulent pretenses, representations, to deny Mr. Verkler credit for amounts collected in
violation of 15 USC 1692d, 1692e, 1692g, 1692h, 18 USC 1341.
2) the federal district court did not have subject matter or territorial jurisdiction in this case,
USA also made several stipulations to this (Exhibit P p75,77-9,81-4, 92,130-2,142-3,149,15861,163,170,176-8);
3) USA did not have standing, USA also made several stipulations to this Exhibit P
plO,80,85,86,125-136,149,158,161,170-1);
4) on Oct. '14 Mr. Verkler was the victim of armed robbery and kidnapping, [in violation of 18
USC 1959 and RCW 9A.40 and 9A.50] based on unfiled, counterfeit: complaint, counterfeit
warrants with forged signatures of a former judge (Exhibit: P p 10-12,17,25,36,50,89,108,139,1445,150-1,159,167-8,175,179, AF, AL, AR, AU). Coughenour joined this criminal conspiracy in
violation in 18 USC 3, 371, 1201,1342,1605,1512,1589,1959, 1961,1962, 2071, and 2113. No one
can dispute federal agents took all of Mr. Verkler's cash, gold and silver (Exhibits: E, P plO2,25,32,36,50, 89,108,139,144-5,150-1,159,167-8,175,179, AF, AL, AM, AR, AU). Many other assets
and files were taken that were not authorized by the so-called warrant. FRCrP 3 requires a
complaint to state the essential facts and be made under oath but the Oct 14, 2014 complaint
1
was not made under oath and all claims of facts were refuted. There was no establishment of
probable cause to issue a warrant at that or any later time. USA stipulated that Andrew
Frederick Harbison bom 1974 of 2114 E Marin St, Seattle WA 98122-4842, Latitude 47.6102,
Longitude -122.3043, opened the unemployment claim with IP address 63.225.190.120,
Provider Centurylink, Hostname 63.225.190.120. He was bom in 1974, his driver's license was
renewed 11/11. On 4/21/21 www.whitepages.com it says there is an Andrew F. Harbison in
Seattle age 46 with a criminal record. The entire operation was conducted illegally (Exhibits:
H, P p 6-61,64-5,67-71,73,75-98,100-121,123-136,138-179,180-3,190, Q pl4, V, AF, AH, AL, AM.
AR, AT, AU, AY);
5) that Mr. Verkler was not brought before a judge in violation of FRCP 5. Mr. Verkler proved
the entire first case based on that case was a false docket (Exhibits: P plO-2,14,20,31,37-9,52,1446,150-1,168,175,179 AF, AL, AR, AY). Attorney Link and judge Coughenour denied the
existence of the 10/14/14 complaint in their filings (Exhibit AY) (which means the docket never
got started and never existed);
6) In violation of 18 USC 1506: The court made false entries on 10/16/14-10/22/14 (Exhibits: P
pll-12,31,144-5,150, Q, AF, AL);
7) On 11/4/14 USA made a second set of accusations against Mr. Verkler and holding him in
custody starting the Speedy Trial Act, countdown (Exhibits: K, L, P pl5,37,146, X). In the
information USA stipulated at least 6 times Mr. Verkler was allegedly filing State weekly
unemployment claims to that date. It is impossible for Mr. Verkler to file those claims while
in custody 3 weeks non-stop. FRCP 5(c)(3)(A)(B)(C)(d)(l)(A)(B)(C)(D)(E)(3) were all violated;
8) USA refused to provide all required discovery and no judge would order it.
2
9) No defense lawyer would interview any witnesses.
10) Mr. Verkler filed Habeas Corpus on 1/16/15 after being illegally incarcerated over 90 days
(Exhibits: H, P pl5,18,150-1,159, Q p22). USA stipulated they deliberately and knowingly
violated the Speedy Trial Act (Exhibits: P pl5-16,37-8, X). [Mr. Verkler later learned Judge
Jones dismissed the matter with prejudice on 2/2/15 (Exhibits: P pl74, AH) the court stole the
record in violation of 18 USC 1506];
11) 2/3/15 USA made a Motion to Dismiss and multiple official representatives of USA also
made a written legally binding stipulation to the District court that before 1/8/15 USA made
baseless accusations that Mr. Verkler committed crimes and held Mr. Verkler in custody from
that date [11/4/14] (the 1/8/15 discovery conference did not yield any evidence against Mr.
Verkler and did not provide copies of everything taken from his home) (Exhibits: K plO-1,17, P
pl2,15-6,145,179) that starts the Speedy Trial Act 18 USC 3161, countdown on 11/4/14, US v
Marion. 320, 331:
12) the unsworn 2/4/15 complaint had no incriminating facts, USA stipulated at least 3 times
Mr. Verkler was allegedly filing State weekly unemployment claims to that date. It is
impossible for Mr. Verkler to file those claims while in custody 15 weeks non-stop, (Exhibits:
G, P pl2-3,17,21-2,101,121) but the court illegally allowed prosecution of Mr. Verkler to proceed
in violation of FRCrP 3 (Exhibit: G);
13) the judge did not establish that Mr. Verkler was charged with a felony violating FRCP 4
because there was no arrest warrant nor arrest in February, the court allowed USA to continue
to keep Mr. Verkler imprisoned even after Mr. Verkler won his case several times over
3
(Exhibits: H, K, P pl-8,12-13,15,16,18,21-2,57,59,88,93-4,103-5,107-21,123-36,138-141,1467,151,173-4,176, AB, AC, AD, AH);
14) The courts violated every part of FRCrP 5 by not having an initial appearance for the
second set of charges. Instead, his court falsified the docket for 2/4/15 and 2/5/15 in violation of
18 USC 1506. Attorney Leonard was dismissed, he stipulated that he lied to Mr. Verkler and
refused to defend Mr. Verkler and actively worked against Mr. Verkler. The court illegally
refuses to provide the required transcript so there is no evidence Rule 5 was obeyed. Failure to
provide a transcript is grounds for reversal of a conviction. [At Sea-Tac Detention Center Mr.
Verkler was told that if he paid $2,500 that he could get his case dismissed.]
15) the 2/10/15 detention order is false violating 18 USC 1506 (Exhibit P pl45, Q);
16) 2/12/15 is the day attorney Shaw claimed to file a Motion to Suppress the Arrest Warrant
and the Search and Seizure Warrant (Exhibit Q p4,10,24,30,34,45,56,57, 60,63-4). USA confirmed
in filings made on 4/22/15, 8/11/15, 8/25/15 and 2/19/16. Yet the court later lied to claim it was
not filed, the court must have deleted it). USA filed Motion to Dismiss, [Mr. Verkler learned
Judge Donohue dismissed the matter with prejudice the court stole those records in violation
of 18 USC 1506];
17) Even though Mr. Verkler won his case (Exhibit P p3-8,15-6,18,21-2,57,59,88,93-4,103-5,10721,123-136,138-141,144,146-7,151,173-4,176, BD p5,16-7,26-7), Mr. Verkler was not yet arraigned
so the conviction must be voided, Upshaw v US. 413, [Mr. Verkler later found that on 2/19/15
the court found Mr. Verkler guilty and pronounced sentence (Exhibit AR) without Mr. Verkler
being charged (Exhibit J Info); without any evidence against him (Exhibit P pll-13,1719,21,35,46,100-1,104,143,145,147,149,151,164); without an hearing; after he had the matter
4
dismissed with prejudice twice (Exhibits: H, AH)]; was found not guilty by adjudication on the
merits (Exhibit K) (Exhibit P p27/147/157/165); without a trial, [or a guilty plea], a nolo contender
plea; where it was impossible to convict him because he was a victim of indefinite detainment,
many due process violations and more. In the information USA stipulated at least 6 times Mr.
Verkler was allegedly filing State weekly unemployment claims to that date. It is impossible
for Mr. Verkler to file those claims while in custody 18 weeks non-stop proving his
innocence; (Exhibits: G p2,1 p2,3,14,16, J p2,3,14,16, P p21,22, BD p6,18,26,27, Supplemental
Reply Brief p3). Mr. Verkler was not indicted. The information cited no evidence against Mr.
Verkler and did not state the elements which is essential FRCrP 7(a)(c); Russell v US. 763-6, note
13; Berger v US, 82; US v Achtner. 51; US v London. 211, US v King. 963; Nelson v US: no count
stated a crime, US v Welch. 6-8, also "convert... gave no indication of the criminal intent
necessary", US v Morrison. 288, overview, outcome.
18) on 2/20/15 USA stipulated FRCP Rule 41 applies to this case. "The word "any" has a
comprehensive meaning of "all or every." Kalmbach, Inc, v. Ins. Co. of State of PA. One docket
reports case dismissed, but falsely reports several negative things (Exhibits: P pl45, AF, AL) on
2/20/15 Mr. Verkler was forced to plead guilty to save his little underage children from being
kidnapped and killed by USA, to avoid lifetime imprisonment and other threats and
attorney Shaw's refusal to defend Mr. Verkler (Exhibits: P pl9-20,28-29,34,37,52-55,67,8991,94,106-7,129,143,147,149-50,164-6,181, AR). Mr. Verkler might still be in prison had he not
plead guilty, Davis v St of NC, 752-3. Coughenour knew these things and joined in the
conspiracy on 3/10/15 if not sooner (Exhibit P p3-8,15-6,18,21-2,45,57,59,88,93-4,103-5,107121,123-36,138-141,141,146-7,151,176-4,176, BD p5,16-7,26-7); Mr. Verkler was told the he was
5
pleading to misdemeanors, his attorneys had several basis to make that claim, but the judge put
the judgments as felony convictions as in McNabb v US. 340, 345. The magistrate had no reason
to believe the crime was committed or that Mr. Verkler committed it, Byrnes v US. ?, 829, 833;
19) because Mr. Verkler's attorney refused to assist (Exhibits: P pl2,21,31-47,52,55-61,8895,100-1,109,115,142-3,145-6,149,151,154-5,160-1,165,172-8,180-3, Y, AX), on 4/22/15 Mr. Verkler
filed a motion to get relief from illegal prison conditions including an attempt by USA to
execute a death penalty (first degree murder) without a court order violating 18 USC 1512 [and
RCW 9A.28.020] (Exhibits: P pl43-4,151,159, AW). Coughenour chose to commit the felonies:
accessory after the fact, misprision of felony, and entered into the criminal conspiracy in
violation of 18 USC 3, 4, 371, US v Benefield, with Mr. Verkler's attorney and USA's BOP.
Coughenour illegally sealed Mr. Verkler's motion on 5/8/15 to conceal the truth and take a
major part of destroying evidence in violation of 18 USC 1506.
20) on 5/8/15 the docket finally records one of Mr. Verkler's requests for court records stating it
was sealed. Mr. Verkler did not authorize it to be sealed, Coughenour did not have authority to
seal it. The court refused to provide transcripts. Also, Mr. Verkler requested transcripts on
3/30/15, 4/14/15, 5/30/15, and 3/3/16. The following docket entries #26 & #27 were stolen in
violation of 1506.
21) on 8/4/15 Coughenour prepared a preliminary and final order of forfeiture which included
the most valuable computer, the iMac, which was not in the plea contract and would have gone
a long way to honoring the plea agreements to provide promised files. His order did not state
the amount of money seized from Mr. Verkler, only that $14,652.55 of the money shall be forfeit.
6
Shaw betrayed Mr. Verkler by not presenting any evidence, Laws, constitutional and
precedents he supplied her and not making most arguments he provided, such as Mr. Verkler's
inventory of currency of $153,892.55 (Exhibit E).
22) on 8/12/15 Mr. Verkler's so-called attorney Shaw learned the BOP thought Mr. Verkler was
sentenced to 2-years so she filed to get the judge to change the sentence to make it a 4-year
sentence. Mr. Verkler's attorneys were all perfidious, treasonous, against him (Exhibits: P
plO,25,34,41-7,55-61,89,94,109,115,120,142-5,146-7,151-5,167-8,171,178, AX, AY).
23) on 8/13/15 a docket reports motions filed. Coughenour lied and said Mr. Verkler had no
access to the court, even though he has access under Supreme Law and Coughenour refused to
dismiss ineffective counsel based on lies.
24) On 1/26/16 Link arranged his only call with his client. He never visited Mr. Verkler, nor got
discovery or transcripts and ignored what Mr. Verkler sent him
25) on 2/9/16 Coughenour issued a final order of forfeiture the cash, coins and other assets were
not inventoried as required by FRCrP 41(f)(1)(B) (Exhibit E). These facts are undisputed and the
opposing party bound themselves to assent and agree these facts are true. Coughenour based
his Order on laws that cannot apply;
26) on 2/19/16 Mr. Verkler dismissed appellate attorney Gregory Charles Link;
27) 3/21/16 Mr. Link retaliated by filing an invalid, illegal phony lying anders brief;
28) on 11/17/16 Coughenour lowered what Mr. Verkler received credit towards restitution
contrary to his 9/15/15 decision;
7
29) on 2/24/17 Mr. Verkler filed for relief from the BOP's attempted murder, assault, not to deny
him law library time, attorney phone, to release him on time, to return legal papers and make
no more seizures, and suppress the Information;
30) the court refused to respond Mr. Verkler filed a motion to proceed on 4/14/17;
31) on 7/6/17 Coughenour based on his own lies illegally rules against Mr. Verkler's motion to
recognize Mr. Verkler won his case by adjudication on the merits;
32) on 8/8/17 Mr. Verkler filed a motion for legal counsel for a 28 USC 2255;
33) On 11/07/17 Coughenour denied Mr. Verkler's motion for the public defender to provide
known copies of records of Mr. Verkler's file that were stolen by USA's BOP;
34) In 12/08/17 Mr. Verkler filed habeas corpus under 28 USC 2255;
35) USA did not send its response to Petitioner, by the deadline of 1/2/18 per 28 USC 2243.
Coughenour said it was due 4/16/18 but Mr. Verkler is not allowed to have a copy. The court
does not have a copy (Exhibit AF);
36) On 1/29/18 Coughenour illegally denied 14 legal grounds to vacate and set aside the
judgment against him based on nothing. Since Coughenour denied Mr. Verkler legal counsel
Coughenour had no right or authority to make any ruling against him. Coughenour even
denied the ground of cumulative error while stating he could not decide on 5 grounds until
USA responded; it was impossible to truthfully rule against cumulative error. Coughenour
exposed that he never had any intention of allowing relief to Mr. Verkler no matter what
response USA did or did not make;
8
37) On 3/1/18 Coughenour ruled against Mr. Verkler's FRCrP 41(g) motion to be able to receive
money that was illegally seized, but not inventoried (in violation of (FRCrP 41(f)(1)(C)), and
was not abandoned or forfeited based on his own lies.

USA did not respond;
42) Mr. Verkler contacted the Federal Public Defender's. They refused to appoint an attorney
and refused a CJA attorney for Mr. Verkler's 2255 habeas corpus;
43) on 3/5/19 Mr. Verkler filed objections for his 28 USC 2255 habeas corpus, USA did not
respond, no judge ruled on it;
44) before 3/11/19 Mr. Verkler filed a second supplement to his 28 USC 2255 habeas corpus,
USA did not respond, no judge ruled on it;
45) An attorney filed a proforma motion to end Mr. Verkler's probation without letting Mr.
Verkler see it and without evidence or a basis and without asking for an hearing in the event the
judge did not want to grant it;
46) 4/7/20 USA's response to end probation is full of lies;
9
47) on 4/27/19 Mr. Verkler filed second objections for his 28 USC 2255 habeas corpus, USA did
not respond, no judge ruled on it;
48) on 3/24/20 Mr. Verkler filed a notice of default judgment for his 28 USC 2255 habeas

• f
REASONS FOR GRANTING THE PETITION
United States Ninth Circuit court of appeals has entered a decision in conflict with the
decision of another United States court of appeals and the Supreme Court on the same
important matter; and has so far departed from the accepted and usual course of judicial
proceedings, and sanctioned such a departure by a lower court, as to call for an exercise of
this Court's supervisory power. United States Ninth Circuit court of appeals has decided an
important question of federal law that has not been, but should be, settled by this Court, and
has decided an important federal question in a way that conflicts with relevant decisions of this
Court.
The proceeding involves one or more questions of exceptional importance, the lower
courts violate: 1) due process; 2) the right to assistance of legal counsel, 3) the protection against
double jeopardy, 4) the right to an appeal and have an impartial judge; 5) the right to an
hearing; 6) the right of a victim to rescind a contract when there is breach of contract; 7) its
obligation to obey the Constitution and Law and not abuse discretion; 8) the protection against
the cruel and unusual punishment of infinite fines; 9) the right to a Speedy Trial; 10) the right to
claim protection of the Constitution and the laws; 11) the court's decision violates the truth that
the government or member of it has no right or authority under the Constitution or the Law to
commit: crimes, torts, conspire or lie against an American.
The right to due process has been trampled upon and needs a boost. "Due Process
Clause prohibits punishment of person prior to judgment of conviction..." Bell v Wolfish. 521,
535-7, 543, 545; lones v Horne; Wolfish v Levi. 118; Hubbard v Taylor; Cupit v lones: Malone v
13
* *
Colver; Matzken v Hen; Green v Baron: Berry v Muskogee. USA and the court punished Mr.
Verkler prior to judgment by holding him in prison without pre-trial release, after he won his
case and after the court was absolutely obligated to release him for being in custody 90 days
without the beginning of trial, and not giving credit for time served, and refusing to provide
minimal medical care. The courts were wrong to put false entries on the docket that he
stipulated to pre-trial detention and to refuse to rule on the issue, especially since USA admitted
the violations.
Mr. Verkler was not notified that the court would conspire to impose additional
penalties without due process of law in violation of FRCrP 11 (b)(5)(A)&(B). Mr. Verkler was
not given notice that the court would reject the plea agreement and did not inform Mr. Verkler
the court was not required to follow the plea agreement so Mr. Verkler has taken the
opportunity to withdraw the plea in violation of FRCrP 11 (b)(5)(A)&(B). The court and USA
have violated the Fifth Amendment by imposing punishments without charges, a trial, a guilty
plea or a nolo contendere plea, or evidence all without a court order and without due process of
law that he was not sentenced to endure: 1) kidnapping; 2) punishing Mr. Verkler twice with
an additional prison term of 9.3 months; 3) imposing infinite fines; 4) attempting a death
penalty; 5) additional convictions; 6) forcing abandonment of legal documents acquired and
prepared while in custody; 7) forcing Mr. Verkler out of a job and to give up other legal earned
income; 8) making felony threats against Mr. Verkler. Also Mr. Verkler did not know how he
would be denied court access or legal counsel. "Misrepresentation of counsel, the district court
and US" can "retract that plea" Chizen v Hunter, 561-3.
14
Mr. Verkler was denied access to the courts in violation of the 5th Amendment. The
courts violated Re Oliver. 273 by hiding court decisions and filings from the Defendant and the
public. The courts have refused to file motions on the docket that they received by stealing
those court records. The courts openly refused to consider motions and briefs filed by the
defense and declare the defense has no right to access the courts. It has been established by the
court's writings that they did not usually read what was presented to them. It is impossible for
the court to rule on the record when the vast majority of transcripts do not even exist! And the
2 transcripts that exist have been proven to not be word for word, US v Taylor. In
Coughenour's denial he falsely stated the date of sentencing, the court found Mr. Verkler guilty
and pronounced sentenced him 2/19/15 and left out that Mr. Verkler's attorney stated that the
court, probation and USA favored ending probation, but opposed it after the motion was filed.
Coughenour stipulated money was defrauded from State unemployment claims which proves
the federal court did not have jurisdiction and USA did not have standing. He lied that
Defendant refuses to pay restitution even though Defendant proved the court and USA
collected much more than the amount of the restitution; and claims Defendant refuses to
explore job opportunities although Defendant proved he got a job. Coughenour claims
remaining on supervision will ensure Mr. Verkler will receive mental health treatment although
USA claims the treatment is ineffective. Coughenour refused to rule on the Objections to
Coughenour's Refusal to Rule on Rebuttal and Objections, Request for Discovery and More
Proof of Ineffective Counsel filed 12/22/20. The Rebuttal and Objections to Illegal Ruling and
Probation Memorandum and USA's Response filed and Fourth Request for an Impartial Judge
filed 4/19/20. Everything the circuit court stated was a lie, except they did refuse to appoint
15
• *
counsel for Mr. Verkler. In issuing a mandate the court lied that Mr. Verkler did not file a
petition for rehearing, so they stole the court record.
USA is must provide Mr. Verkler files taken from him. The denial of discovery entitles
the defendant to have the conviction and sentence set aside and vacated, Cf. US v Bagiev. 68283; Ferrara v US. 286, 289, 30th, 34th pg; Gouled v US. 313; Poe v US: Henderson v US; US v
Strickland. 277,
The right to assistance of legal counsel has been perverted into imposition of fraud to
leave a defendant no choice but to be found guilty. Mr. Verkler was aften not allowing counsel
violating Glasser v US. 76. The circuit courts recognize the right of a defendant in a criminal
case to have legal counsel in such a case, US v Mala. US v Duarte-Higareda. Coughenour
denied legal counsel for several filings including the habeas corpus, objections, summary
judgment and default judgment.
The court's decision not to appoint an attorney to an indigent defendant in a criminal
case violates the US Constitution, Supreme Law, Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure and
precedents. Without counsel the Defendant is not allowed a chance. The court may not
proceed against a defendant without counsel. "Judges have a duty to ensure that the right to
counsel as a jurisdictional prerequisite to depriving a person of his or her liberty is fully
honored." Frazer v US; lohnson v Zerbst. The Courts ruled, "The deprivation of the right to
counsel... can never be treated as harmless error." Frazer v US: US v Iasiello; US v Leopard;
\
Roney v US; Shepherd v US; Green v US: US v Maxwell. Under Powell v AL and US v Wade.
226 Mr. Verkler claims the right to counsel at every step including challenging USA's and the
16
court's imposition of punishment not authorized under the sentence on record such as the
extended prison time and extended probation.
Mr. Verkler has the right to effective legal counsel, Glasser v US. 69-70 but never really
had legal counsel, because appointed attorneys worked against him. In Mr. Verkler's case
counsel said the judge refused to allow her to file on behalf of her client. Courts kept ruling, "...
Several courts have held or indicated that coercion by the accused's counsel can render a plea
involuntary." "A court's unreasonable or erroneous refusal to substitute counsel is
presumptively prejudicial and requires reversal... US v Velazquez. 1034; US v Nguyen. 1005;
see also US v Gonzalez-Lopez. 150 ("...unquestionably qualifies as 'structural error.'")." St of
WA v Delila Reid. There is no basis to deny counsel.
)
The imposition of multiple punishments beyond the sentence violates the Double
Jeopardy clause. Prosecuting a person after being established not guilty by adjudication on the
i
/l /
merits and after the matters were dismissed with prejudice is unconstitutional under the
Double Jeopardy clause; even when "the conviction was entered pursuant to a counseled plea
of guilty" Menna v NY. sum, 62; Blackledge v Perry, 24, 30; Meyers v US. 380; Mansolilli vUS.

On 2/12/15 USA stipulated in writing in an official court document under oath that they
knowingly and deliberately violated the Speedy Trial Act, and related Laws, USA stipulated
first accusations made 10/14/14 and subject to continued detention and stipulated that on 11/4/14
made the rest of the accusations (Exhibit K p2, P pl5,104, X), after violating the Act (Exhibit P
pl08-109,120,124), and then 2/19/15 the court found Mr. Verkler guilty and sentenced him and
17
later accepting an involuntary and unknowingly guilty plea. In claiming double jeopardy and
Speedy Trial violations adequate remedy is available under 28 USC 2255, Hart v Harris. The
courts refused to address these.
The US Constitution indicates there is a right to appeal and make collateral attack and
win, but the courts have perverted it into a guarantee for the defendant to be convicted. By
requiring due process and authorizing Congress to establish courts inferior to the Supreme
Court, but the courts have perverted it into a guarantee for the defendant to be convicted. The
5th Amendment7s requirement of due process means that if the original court violates due
process then a defendant must have the right to appeal. Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure
grants appeal as a right. No judge may deny a defendant the right to habeas corpus.
The courts keep ruling that without a proper arraignment even when represented by
counsel the conviction must be vacated, Cook v US. An arraignment did not take place until
after the court found Mr. Verkler guilty and pronounced sentence. The courts were wrong not
to address the issue. Mr. Verkler is entitled to an hearing on the 2255 because of missing
transcripts, US v Tavlor.
No judge signed the so-called mandate. There is no certified copy of the judgment and
is no opinion. If Appeal court does not specifically address an issue can the defendant can still
include it in habeas, Tohnson v Renico. 706, see Woodward v Williams. 1140. The appellate
court did not state a basis to rule against any grounds put forth by Mr. Verkler on appeal so
Coughenour was wrong to reject grounds in Mr. Verkler's habeas corpus based on the appellate
court's unconstitutional, illegal, baseless, meritless, lying dismissal of the cases. There is no
18
statement about costs. The mandate was filed without a ruling on the En Banc appeal. The
order is not legal. The Ninth Circuit denied that Mr. Verkler has a right to appeal and stated
they will not entertain filings in this case. Mr. Verkler claims appeal as of right per FRAP Rule
4(b)(l)(A)(i).
"Petitioner is entitled to relief under 28 USC 2255 on showing simple deprivation of his
right to appeal, without showing some likelihood of success on appeal;..." Rodriquez v US;
Doyle v US. Since the trial judge failed to protect the defendant's rights adequately, the
defendant has recourse to appellate review.
"It was permissible not to challenge sufficiency of indictment until appeal since
indictment omitted essential element of offense and thereby became so defective for which
defendant was convicted" US v Camp: Hambing v US. 117.
The court over looked that Mr. Verkler filed his habeas corpus under 28 USC 2255 so
there is no requirement for Mr. Verkler to get a certificate of appealability under 2255(d), but it
does grant the right to appeal. 28 USC 2255 is more current than 28 USC 2253 so 2255
supersedes 2253. Under the Rules Governing Section 2255 Proceeding for the US District Court
11.(a) the court is to direct parties to submit arguments if the court should issue a certificate of
appealability per 28 USC 2253(c)(2) because of a denial of a constitutional right. USA never
submitted anything against it so there is no controversy to invoke court authority for any judge
to rule against Mr. Verkler per US Constitution Article III Section 2. The court cannot require a
certificate of appealability. The court has no right or authority to demand or deny a certificate
of appealability for an habeas corpus under 28 USC 2255. The courts were wrong to deny Mr.
Verkler an appeal.
19
"Lack of jurisdiction of court rendering judgment was ground for interference by habeas
corpus." Craig v US: Williams v US: Thor v US: Covey v US. "... a defendant does not waive a
jurisdictional challenge by pleading guilty" US v Spinner. 516. "Challenges to district court's
subject matter jurisdiction may be raised at any time..." US v Burch. Mr. Verkler conclusively
proved lack of court jurisdiction. USA even stipulated and admitted State jurisdiction. The
district court never adequately addressed it and the circuit court ignored it.
The court over looked the fact that USA did not respond to Mr. Verkler's habeas corpus.
Mr. Verkler made 14 written requests for a copy of their 2255 response but USA did not
respond. Mr. Verkler made 7 written requests to the district court without a response. 28 USC
2250 requires the court to provide a copy of USA's response so failure to provide a copy means
the court breaks the law or it did not have a copy of USA's response. The court clerk finally
stipulated in writing that many of the documents, including USA's response to the 2255 do not
exist (Exhibit AF). By prosecuting Mr. Verkler after judges dismissed the matter with prejudice,
Mr. Verkler has the right to appeal, Abney v US.
The circuit court over looked that the district court had no basis to rule against any
ground Mr. Verkler presented and the court's decisions had no merit. The court never ruled on
several grounds presented in Mr. Verkler's habeas corpus: 4) the circuit did not allow Mr.
Verkler to have legal counsel on appeal; 17) the appellate court did not conduct an examination
of the case; 19) cumulative error; 20) Mr. Verkler was not indicted nor charged; 21) USA proved
that Mr. Verkler's signature was forged on the plea agreement; 22) the court found Mr. Verkler
guilty and sentenced him without a trial, without a guilty or a nolo contender plea, without
20
charges (Exhibits G, J), without an hearing, without an arraignment, without any evidence
(Exhibit J), after USA stipulated in writing to the court that they knowingly and deliberately
violated the Speedy Trial Act (Exhibit X) (p2 #5b should say there are NO transcripts), after 2
judges on the case under 2 different case numbers dismissed the matter with prejudice based on
2 habeas corpus (Exhibits H, AH), after Mr. Verkler was established not guilty by adjudication
on the merits (Exhibit K) FRCP 41 says it applies to "any federal- or state-court action" and USA
stipulated that FRCP 41 applies to this case, after USA violated the Speedy Trial Act.
Mr. Verkler is entitled to an impartial judge according to 28 USC sec 455; Goldberg v
Kelly; McNabb v US, 347; In re Murchison; Glasser v US. 72; Hallidav v US: United Retail and
Wholesale Employees Teamsters Union Local No. 115 Pension Plan v Yahn and McDonnell, Inc,
138. Instead, judges have become more dedicated to prosecuting a defendant than the
prosecutors. What processes are due? The Goldberg Court answered this question by holding
that the state must provide a hearing before an impartial judicial officer, the right to an
attorney's help, the right to present evidence and argument orally, the chance to examine all
materials that would be relied on or to confront and cross-examine adverse witnesses, or a
decision limited to the record thus made and explained in an opinion. The Court's basis for this
elaborate holding seems to have some roots in the incorporation doctrine. A defendant has...
"the right to an unbiased decisionmaker," see Board of Educ. v. Rice; H. WADE,
ADMINISTRATIVE LAW 171-218 (3d ed. 1971), even tracing its origin back to Genesis, Rex v.
University of Cambridge; Stewart v Tozwiak.
The US Constitution states it is to establish justice and liberty for a more perfect union
and only allows judges to remain in office during good behavior indicating they must obey the
21
US Constitution and the Law and be fair just and impartial, not lie nor commit a crime against
people. That even purportedly fair adjudicators "are disqualified by their interest in the
controversy to be decided is, of course, the general rule." Tumey v. Ohio, 273 U. S. 510, 522
(1927). Hamdi v Rumsfeld, 542 US 547, III D (2004). Judges can only issue warrants upon
probable cause supported by evidence, they are to be impartial. "When the opposing party
puts forth no facts, no law and no argument to support their positions it is illegal for the court to
rule on their behalf." Old Colony Trust Co. v Commissioner of Int Rev.
Furthermore FRCrPl(b)(2) states, "'Court' means a federal judge performing functions
authorized by law." So, a judge must act according to law and according to the evidence to be
impartial. It also means when a judge acts contrary to law it is not "Court". It means his
decisions and orders are null and void.
The judge's actions as a prosecutor, commits thefts, other crimes, violations of the
Constitution and Supreme Law prove he is not impartial and must not pre-determine to find
Mr. Verkler guilty, US v Cross; United Retail and Wholesale Employees Teamsters Union Local
No. 115 Pension Plan v Yahn and McDonnell. Inc, US v Cross. ? p 145,147-8; Great Western
Mining and Material Co v Fox Rothschild LLP: Nesses v Shepard, 1005; Marshall v Terrico. Inc..
242. Mr. Verkler's case was also predetermined.
The US Constitution and several Laws establish a defendant's right to an hearing. It is
often violated in favor of false entries in the docket or prearranged decisions without any input
or consent from the defendant as part of a conspiracy arranged behind his back. The US
Constitution and Law establish a right to due process and the right to appear before a judge
22
which means a right to an hearing from initial appearance through appeal and specifies a right
to an hearing. In an ordinary case a citizen has a right to a hearing to contest the forfeiture of
his property, a right secured by the Due Process Clause.
"Very notion of hearing, under due process..., however informal, connotes that decision
maker will listen to arguments of both sides before basing decision on evidence and legal rules
adduced at hearing." Billington v Underwood: Goldberg v Kelly. 267-8, 271; In re Murchison:
Dunn v US, 107.
The most recent decisions of the Supreme Court show a resumption of the trend toward
greater and greater insistence on hearings. North Ga. Finishing. Inc, v Di-Chem, Inc.. 723; In
Goss v Lopez the Supreme Court pushed the requirement of "some kind of hearing". "...court
must take defendant's allegations as true..." Mack v US. "[A] hearing in its very essence
demands that he who is entitled to it shall have the right to support his allegations by
argument, however brief, and, if need be, by proof, however informal.
Londoner v Denver.
386; Toint Anti-Fascist Refugee Committee v McGrath. 171-2. "The Court has consistently held
that some kind of hearing is required at some time before a person is finally deprived of his
property interests." Wolff v McDonnell. 557-8. "...contention that [defendant's] allegations are
improbable and unbelievable cannot serve to deny him an opportunity to support them by
evidence" Walker v Tohnston, 287; Machibroda v US. 495. "...the denial of that right is a
controversy." Willner v Committee on Character. 102. The essence of due process is the
requirement that "a person in jeopardy of serious loss [be given] notice of the case against him
and opportunity to meet it." Toint Anti-Fascist Comm, v McGrath. p349 ? (1950). It is likewise
23
fundamental that notice be given and that it be timely and clearly inform the individual of the
proposed action and the grounds for it. Boddie v Connecticut. 378; Stewart v Tozwiak.1064: Cf.;
Groppi v Leslie.
Breach of contract is a long-standing problem with the US government, it is past time
for the government to learn to have some honor. Defendant proved he was to receive credit
towards restitution for amounts collected, USA version of PLEA CONTRACT # 7, page 4 and
USA collected substantial sums USA version of PLEA CONTRACT # 8, page 5-8 and Exhibits
S, E, but USA gave no credit for anything it collected (Exhibit U). That is a clear breach of their
contract. "... where the government has breached or elected to void a plea agreement the
defendant... may seek... withdrawal of the guilty plea..." US v Gonzalez; Santobello v NY; US
v Puckett; US v Saling; US v Pollard: Dunn v Collaran. 262; Kingsley v US: Cosby v Muncy: also
US v Ammirato, 554 - 555; Bryan v US. 776, 778. The circuit would not consider this, the district
judge lied.
It is an abuse of discretion to apply the wrong legal standard, US v Ruiz. 1033. The US
courts commit a lot of abuse, it is time for a change for the better. The decision to deny Mr.
Verkler's right to appeal the denial of habeas corpus was illegal. FRCP 41 must be interpreted
according to the rule of lenity.
"A district court abuses its discretion when it misapplies the law in reaching its decision
or bases its decision on findings of fact that are clearly erroneous." Arce v Garcia. 1260. Here
the judge makes up laws.
According to FRCrP 1(a)(1) the rules govern all criminal proceedings in all US courts.
To apply a different standard in order to commit a crime against a defendant is not allowed.
24
The higher court needs to overturn the illegal lower court decisions. "The burden always
remains with the government" US v Dozier. #100.
The courts overlooked that the district court has not only abused discretion, it has
violated discretion in nearly every decision and it has violated the US Constitution and
Supreme Law and rebelled against Supreme Court precedents and Ninth Circuit and other
Circuit Court precedents in nearly every decision. Coughenour frequently relies on non
existent cases, pages or laws or blatantly lies about them, even saying the opposite. The Ninth
Circuit has the same problem. Coughenour did not consider the relevant record or what Mr.
Verkler presented, Objections to Probation Ruling p 32. Coughenour knows much of the record
is wrong and even falsified it to the detriment of Mr. Verkler, Objections to Probation Ruling p
4, 33-4, Supplemental Opening Brief p 4 because he is directly involved is stealing court records.
Coughenour had no authority to make a ruling against Mr. Verkler because it has been
established beyond any reasonable doubt: 1) that Coughenour is not impartial 28 USC 455,
Goldberg v Kelly: Hallidav v US. 380 F. 2d 270 (1st Cir 1967); 2) the federal courts never had
jurisdiction to prosecute a case against Mr. Verkler; 3) USA never had standing to bring a case
against Mr. Verkler; 4) Mr. Verkler was not allowed effective counsel in district court and no
counsel for several filings and his habeas corpus; 5) Mr. Verkler was not allowed counsel for
appeals 15-30244,16-30001,17-30237,18-30073, 20-30161, 20-35559 there is a jurisdictional bar
that forbids the court to rule against Mr. Verkler per Tohnson v Zerbst, the court still has not
done its duty to rule in Mr. Verkler's favor for all appeals; 6) Mr. Verkler's right to a defense
was violated; 7) courts violate due process and abuse discretion; 8) Mr. Verkler's actual
innocence; 9) the guilty plea was not voluntary and not knowingly made; 10) illegal
25
imprisonment and kidnapping; 11) fraud in the factum; 12) breach of contract by USA; 13)
Speedy Trial Act violations; 14) prosecutorial misconduct; 15) the court refused to rule on
motions; 16) failure of the court to say it was giving credit for time served; 17) there was no
appeal waiver and if there was one Mr. Verkler could still appeal on the grounds he appealed;
18) double jeopardy was violated; 19) the appellate court did not: conduct an examination of the
case, the amended notice of appeal, read the sentence, read attorney Link's motion to withdraw,
Mr. Verkler's notice to dismiss Link past the caption, read any transcripts, Mr. Verkler's filings,
nor Mr. Verkler's briefs; 20) Mr. Verkler was not charged with the crimes the court found him
guilty and sentenced him to; 21) Mr. Verkler did not sign a plea agreement so the courts cannot
use it against him, Marino v Ragan: 22) The district court reported Mr. Verkler was guilty
without a trial, a guilty plea nor a nolo contendere plea. The circuit court did not consider the
>7cf
issues. USA did file an answering brief for: appeals 15-30244,16-30001,17-30237,18-30073, 2030161, 20-35559, so the court was obligated to rule in Mr. Verkler's favor.
The court and USA have violated the Article I Section 9, Article III Section 2, Fourth,
Fifth, Sixth, Eighth, Tenth, Thirteenth Amendments by imposing illegal punishments without
charges, a trial, a guilty plea or a nolo contendere plea, all without a court order and without
due process of law that he was not sentenced to endure: 1) punishing Mr. Verkler twice with an
additional prison term of 9.3 months; 2) attempting to impose a death penalty; 3) imposing
infinite fines; 4) putting additional counts on Mr. Verkler's record; 5) by forcing abandonment
of legal papers and evidence obtained while in prison; 6) denying discovery for continued legal
proceedings; 7) denying court access; 8) denying legal counsel; 9) money stolen from the wages
of slave labor; 10) forcing him out of a job; 11) forcing him to give up other legal earned income;
26
12) not returning property that the court did not include in forfeiture or abandonment; or felony
threats.
. .the court found that the government's nondisclosure constituted misconduct that
deprived the petitioner of the ability to enter a knowing and voluntary plea and,therefore,
transgressed the rule of Brady v US. See id. at 432-33," Ferrara v US, 17th pg.
USA seized funds that the sentencing court did not order, a clear double jeopardy
violation and not allowed under the Preamble. The US Constitution also states property cannot
be taken without due process of law. To decide to take more property without notice and
without regard to any evidence and without allowing the Defendant to present his case and
without a trial, an hearing or court order and when money is taken, they do it off the record and
keep the money rather than turning it in means he committed theft and embezzlement under
color of law. They all violate due process. Because there has been no court ordered fines or
increase in restitution their imposition is unconstitutional and illegal.
USA and the courts are on a course that indicates they are imposing an infinite amount
as a fine without an hearing, court order or due process of law. Mr. Verkler's withdraw of the
guilty plea took place before the court-imposed sentence and the Defendant did show fair
and just reasons for the withdrawal. USA and the court also unjustly took property without
just compensation. Both the US Constitution and the plea contract require USA and the court to
give credit to Mr. Verkler for what they collect. They even stipulating an amount was collected
then will deny it. The courts wrongfully refuse to address the issues.
27
On 1/12/21 USA, probation and judge Coughenour and Thomas Coe used a false
accusation to conspire to entrap Mr. Verkler, forge his signature and steal payments after
probation legally ended.
At no time did Mr. Verkler receive the protection of the Constitution or the Law.
Although the attorney for him, the courts and USA are obligated to protect Mr. Verkler's rights,
none would make any attempt to fulfill their duty. Instead, they all worked against Mr. Verkler
as the record clearly shows.
18 USC 4 not only makes it a felony for the judges, prosecutors and my attorneys to
refuse to report the crimes against Mr. Verkler it means Mr. Verkler has protection under the
Law and access to the court to report those crimes. It is such protection needs to be restored for
the US to have honor, violating Marburv v Madison. 163. "The federal courts the duty to accord
a person prosecuted... every safeguard which the law accords ..." Sinclair v US. 296-7; Watkins
vUS, 208; Sacher v US. 577; Flaxer v US. 151; Deutch v US. 471; Russell v US. 755. "... the
substantial safeguards to those charged with serious crimes cannot be eradicated under the
guise of technical departures from the rules." Smith v US, 9; Russell v US. 763-6 nl3.
"the absence of an indictment is a jurisdictional defect which deprives the court of its
power to act. Such a jurisdictional defect cannot be waived by a defendant, even by a plea of
guilty." Smith v US, 10; also Ex parte Bain, 13; Ex parte Wilson. 429. The lower court cites US v
Weber, which puts the burden of proof on the government, and they have submitted no legal
evidence, and never charged him thus violating due process, Gregory v Chicago. 112.
In Mr. Verkler's case all the judge asked was, "Do you make these decisions freely and
28
voluntarily? He knew Mr. Verkler was denied pre-trial release, and was not released upon
USA's violation of the Speedy Trial Act or when charges were dismissed or when Mr. Verkler
was illegally held in custody over 90 days against his will without the beginning of trial and
USA stipulated in writing on several occasions multiple times per occasion that weekly
unemployment claims were being filed while Mr. Verkler was in custody which proves he
could not be guilty and he won his case because all the counts were already dismissed with
prejudice, USA stipulated in writing under oath it knowingly and deliberately violated the
Speedy Trial Act, USA voluntarily dismissed the matter 4 times so under FRCP 41 and
stipulated in writing under oath that FRCP 41 applies in this case so Mr. Verkler was not guilty
by adjudication on the merits. In the same hearing the attorney started to say, "Your honor, I
don't - a think this is a knowing, intelligent and voluntary plea. Mr. Verkler reminded the
attorney about USA's threats to kidnap and kill Mr. Verkler's children. The attorney said,
"Your honor, there is one matter. Mr. Verkler is concerned that the government may go after
his children," Franze-Nakamura replied, "That is right. Ms. Shaw alerted me to this issue
yesterday," That is when he filed the Information. That means he filed the Information when
the threats overborn Mr. Verkler's will. Threatening children or love ones is unconstitutional,
illegal and makes a plea involuntary, Guerra v Collins; Tohnson v Renico. 709; Brusbon v US;
Smith v Campbell; also Malloy v Hogan. 7; Cummings v US, 382. "... voluntariness must be
established beyond a reasonable doubt" Mullins v US; US v Inman; Adkins v US: Shelton v US.
26; Machibroda v US, 493; Schautz v Beto. 216, #7,9 a conviction in the Federal courts, obtained
in disregard of liberties deemed fundamental by the Constitution, cannot stand." Boyd v US;
Weeks v US; Gouled v US, 313; Aenello v US. 32; Bvars v US: Grau v US: Me Nabb v US. ?, 343;
29
US v Tackson; Blackledge v Perry. 28-9; US v Groves. 453; US v DeMarco. 1226; US v Oaks, 940;
The "district court erred in allowing forfeitures where neither the indictments
[information or plea contract] mentioned or included [them]" US v Seifuddin: US v MishlaAldarondo. The district court ordered the forfeiture of Mr. Verkler's iMac and allowed the
forfeiture of cash, legal papers and other files and other assets not included in the information,
plea contract or sentence.
The US Constitution never gives anyone in the government power or authority to
commit a crime or a tort, to lie or conspire against any American person. The Supreme Court
could make the greatest advancement for liberty and justice since Martin Luther King Jr's civilright's movement. The Tenth Amendment denies the US government all powers and authority
not specifically given in the US Constitution. As in Agnello v US. 32; Boyd v US. 617, 630, 635;
Byars v US, 32; Gouled v US. 298, 304; Weeks v US; Siverthorne Lumber Co v US: US v
Lefkowitz. 466-7; the Court ruled the amendment merge to expand a person's rights beyond
what each amendment does on its own; Roe v Wade. 152 in a line of decisions the Court has
recognized that the right to privacy goes beyond each individual amendments the Court should
recognize people in government cannot commit a crime, a tort, conspire or he against an
American. Unlawful acts and violations of rights are not to be sanctioned by the courts, Weeks
vUS. 383, 392.
USA is forbidden to use threats or otherwise make a plea involuntary to force a guilty
plea, Machibroda v US. 487, 493, 496; Graham v Conner. 398; Somberger v City of Knoxville;
30
Giuffre v Brissell; Moore v Dempsey. 89-90; as was done in Mr. Verkler's case. The US
Attorney has a duty to refrain from improper methods to produce wrongful conviction.
The court did not explain most the seriousness of the charges. The court did: 1) not call
the charges felonies; 2) not say that USA could attempt to impose a death penalty or attempted
murder; 3) not say the government or court could put extra counts on Mr. Verkler's record for
DWI's, instead the court said USA could not put on extra charges; 4) not say USA could impose
on additional 9.3-month term of imprisonment beyond what was sentenced, instead the judge
said USA could ask for a maximum of a total of 4 years; 5) did not say USA could repeatedly
steal legal papers Mr. Verkler had while he was in custody, there was no such forfeiture nor
abandonment provision, the judge said USA had to follow through with promise to return
many files and papers, but they did not; 6) not say Mr. Verkler could not get all discovery USA
is required to provide by law, instead the judge states several specific files that USA still had to
give Mr. Verkler, USA did not,; 7) not say Mr. Verkler would not get credit for prior amounts
collected, instead the judge said I would get credit for prior amounts collected; 8) not say Mr.
Verkler would not get credit for amounts forfeited or collected after the plea, instead the judge
said Mr. Verkler would get credit towards restitution; 9) not say Mr. Verkler would not get back
property taken by USA that was not forfeited or abandoned, instead the judge said Mr.
Verkler's attorney could go through all the items taken and return everything not listed as
forfeited or abandoned; 10) not say Mr. Verkler would be denied future access to the court; 11)
not say Mr. Verkler could not get legal counsel in the future; 12) not say Mr. Verkler would
have to pay an infinite amount in fines even without a court order, instead the judge said the
maximum fine was $250,000 and the judge ordered no fine; 13) not say USA, the court,
31
probation or a judge could make felony threats against to try to stop him from seeking relief in
the court; 14) not say they could make felony threats and conspire to force Mr. Verkler out of his
home so he would have to move too far away to keep his job and to earn other income. It need
not be established "that there was a formal agreement in government to conspire; circumstantial
evidence and reasonable inferences drawn therefrom concerning the relationship of the parties,
their overt acts, and the totality of their conduct may serve as proof, IIS v Kaczmarek. 1035; US
v Cogwell; US v Whaley. 1476,1476,1477; US v Griffin. 1116; US v Mavo. 1088; US v
Washington, 1153. Only slight evidence to prove that an individual was a member of the
conspiracy, US v Castillo, 353; US v Gironda. 1217; US v West, 685; US v Robinson, 123; US v
Marrapese, 921; US v Nunez, 460; US v Braasch. posture, 141-2,148,151. No direct evidence
is needed, Glasser v US, 80; US v Manton. 839. It is not necessary to prove an overt act, US v
Diaz, 79;
The courts overlooked that in USA's plea agreement and in USA's Information, USA
stipulated Mr. Verkler did not steal nor purloin. In Washington State where USA stipulates the
alleged activity took place a conversion is a tort, it is not a crime, Informal Reply Brief p 2.
Felony convictions should not have been put on Mr. Verkler's record. An indictment does not
eradicate any deprivation of constitutional rights, US v King, 776, and Mr. Verkler was not
indicted or charged.
It was proven: the lawyers, judges, magistrates, prosecutors, prison staff, clerks, court
employees, tax collectors (also: police, sheriffs, Director of Business License Bureau, marshals,
secret service agents, custom officials, Department of Agriculture officers, politicians and their
32
employees, lobbyists, financial analyst, or any public official, any individual in the public sector
or any entity in the public sector, Office of the Governor, even entire departments, courts,
municipality, utility or corporation) in Mr. Verkler's case they cannot be allowed to: commit a
crime or conspiracy, a tort or lie like: kidnapping, illegal gun use, delay in arraignment or in
trial, indefinite detainment, punishment prior to judgment of conviction, false conviction, false
imprisonment, attempted murder, subterfuge, pretext, lying, filing false income tax forms,
RICO, extortion, force an involuntary guilty plea, threats not even against loved ones, a
shakedown, theft of documents, theft, robbery, conversion, to harm, failure to do duty to use all
lawful means to prevent injury, collect unlawful debt, embezzlement, skim money, receipt or
possession of stolen goods, corruption, scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or
property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, untoward
blandishments, obstruction of the enforcement of criminal law, obstruction of justice,
unauthorized exercise of power, exceeding official power, violating a law relating to office,
cover-up, mutilate or conceal files, false statements in court, perjury, withholding evidence,
falsifying evidence, skullduggery, planting evidence, tax fraud, falsifying documents, falsifying
the docket, fabricating stories or evidence, forgery, inducing a witness to testify falsely,
intimating a witness, witness tampering, depriving of honest or faithful of government services,
various types of governmental interference that deprive the defendant of the right to witnesses,
deprivation of rights, fraud, dishonesty, misrepresentation (including unfulfilled or
unfulfillable promises), refusal to due one's duty, under color of official right, or any crime
under color of law, to sell, dispose of, alter, give away, for the purpose of executing such
scheme or artifice or attempting so to do, or perhaps by promises that are by their nature
33
improper, conspiracy, and no claim that a statement was obtained without coercion or
accurately recorded and relevant can make it admissible and it is on overriding concern that
effective sanctions be imposed against illegal arrest and detention as was done against Mr.
Verkler (also cannot: bribe, attempt to illegally solicit, blackmail, third degree, road rage,
assault, battery, murder, torture, promises to discontinue improper harassment, fabricated
evidence, false or misleading testimony, no claim that a statement was obtained without
coercion or accurately recorded and relevant can make it admissible and it is on overriding
concern that effective sanctions be imposed against illegal arrest and detention, punishment
prior to judgment of conviction, a shakedown, use of the spoils system, kickbacks, payoffs, or to
sell, dispose of, loan, exchange, distribute, supply, or furnish or procure for unlawful use any
counterfeit or spurious coin, obligation, security, or other article, sexual favors, prostitution,
drug crimes, illegally gamble, mail fraud, wire fraud, or anything represented to be or intimated
or held out to be such counterfeit or spurious article, for the purpose of executing such scheme
or artifice or attempting so to do) and they should get a more severe punishment and citizens

"Case must be remanded for full consideration of delay between defendant's arrest and his
appearance before magistrate..." US v Keeble.
According to the Law Mr. Verkler was a victim of kidnapping, indefinite detainment,
delay in arraignment, RICO, extortion, threats even against loved ones, false statements in
court, withholding evidence, falsifying documents, depriving the defendant of the right to
witnesses, deprivation of rights, fraud, misrepresentation (including unfulfilled promises), by
promises that are by their nature improper or any crime under color of law, refusal to due one's
duty, under color of official right. Mr. Verkler kept telling judges, attorneys and officers of
USA's kidnapping of him and they went along with keeping Mr. Verkler in detention makes
them guilty, US v Broadwell. 602; Graham v Conner. 395.
To convict police for providing false and misleading officers are not protected from false
statements in future prosecutions... need to prove any state of mind with respect to the
circumstances that the judge or law enforcement officer is an officer or employee of the Federal
Government. US v Veal, overview, 1233,1248, also US v Guadalupe; see US v Tines. 893; US v

"... a [government] defendant may be found gruilty of conspiring... even if the
defendant did not join the conspiracy until after its inception and even if the defendant played

Broadwell. 602 and do not need to know the others in the conspiracy US v Wilson. 1253; US v
Andrews, 1496; US v Holloway. 679; US v Scrushv, 468. As in Re Oliver, 273 the courts decided
to keep secrets from the public. "... it was not necessary to prove that they knew their conduct

In Mr. Verkler's case, court records were falsified by putting false entries on the docket
and removing true entries from the docket and stealing filed documents from the court records
and dates of filings were falsified and the order changed all to deny Mr. Verkler justice and due
37
process and commit crimes against him. The court mled these acts are criminal and the clerk's
conviction was upheld, US v Conn. 420-1, 423, 425; US v Bagnariol. 893, #18; US v Twigg, 381.

Mr. Verkler filed to dismiss attorney Thomas Coe for refusing to work on Mr.
Verkler's behalf and plotting to find Mr. Verkler guilty. Mr. Verkler filed to dismiss
Coe, get subpoenas for several adverse witnesses and for discovery. Coughenour
refused to allow them to be docketed and refused to rule on them. That violates Fed.
Rule of Crim. Proc. 49(b)(5) that requires everything received by the court to be
docketed. It means Coughenour and others deliberately commit the felony crime of
theft of court records from the court files in violation of 18 USC 1506. Coughenour is
knowingly and deliberately falsifying the docket by stealing/deleting entries from the
docket.

CONCLUSION
There are many categories of reasons to rule in George Verkler’s favor. These
categories each have multiple reasons to rule in Mr. Verkler’s favor. Any one of these
reasons alone would be enough to rule in George Verkler’s favor.
It is important to rule in George Verkler’s favor especially the last issue that: the
government and no one in it has the right, authority or power to commit a crime, a tort,
to conspire or lie against any American person. The fate of America is riding on your
decision.
It does not matter whether a person looks at opinions with judges with the
original founding father, or opinions with current judges or anywhere in between or look
at Supreme Court or any Circuit Court or other courts all published opinions favor
George Verkler.
The petition for a writ of certiorari should be granted.
Respectfully submitted,
