Virginia Cramer, in propria persona,

having filed a special and limited appearance

in propria persona, moves the Court to quash

service of the process of "Order to Show

Cause" dated March 13, 1981, and to Order

restitution of One Thousand ($1,000.00) Dol-

lars cash to said Virginia Cramer, on the

grounds that said service of process was

invalid, and to dismiss the Amended Motion for

Entry of An Order to Show Cause, for the

following reasons;

le That the so-called "Judgment for

Plaintiff and Injunctive Order" entered on

January 5, 1973, is invalid since it orders

nothing; that the Court speaks only through

its written "Orders,"

2. That the Michigan Supreme Court deci-

sion and opinions of December 30, 1976, cap-

tioned State Bar of Michigan vs Cramer, re-

ported at 399 Mich 116, and also the "Order of

Remittitur" entered on January 20, 1977,

a

affirmed the "Judgment" of January 5, 1973,

gl

and which said Judgment for Plaintiff and

Injunctive Order orders nothing,

3. That the Michigan Supreme Court did

not remand the matter to the trial court and

the Wayne County Circuit Court does not have

jurisdiction to take further proceedings,

4, That the "Order to Show Cause" entered

in the Wayne County Circuit Court on March 13,

1981, Civil Action No, 72-218-571-CZ, is

invalid and service of process is invalid

where without a remand by the Michigan Sup-

reme Court the lower court has no jurisdiction.

5. That the "Warrent" issued on April 29,

1981, and executed on June 12, 1981, arrest-

ing the said Virginia Cramer, is invalid for

the same reasons and grounds that the "Order

to Show Cause" issued on March 13, 1981, and

served upon Virginia Cramer is invalid where

the Wayne County Circuit Court has no juris-

diction, without a remand by the Michigan

Supreme Court.

6, That on said June 12, 1981, the said

Judge John D, O'Hair illegally and unlawfully,

in tie wbsence of jurisdiction withou’

remand by the Michigan Suprene Court, Ordered

that Virginia Cramer post a $1,000.00 cash

bond following said illegal and unlawful

arrest,

7. That the said Judge John D, O'Hair

flagrantly and maliciously robbed said

Virginia Cramer of said One Thousand ($1,000)

Dollars in cash, which is not a bond,

8, That the cash amount of $1,000, was

paid by Virginia Cramer for her immediate

release from the Wayne County Jail on the

condition that she appear in the Wayne County

Circuit Court on June 17, 1981, as stated by

Judge John D, O'Hair,

9. That said Virginia Cramer appeared in

propria persona in Judge John D, O'Hair's

courtroom on said June 17, 1981, at approxi-

mately 9:00 A.M. and, by fraud and deceit,

the date was changed to August 11, 1981, and

for the reason that H. Rollin Allen did not

have Subpeonas served, as misrepresented to

the said Virginia Cramer,

96

10. ‘That tne invalid "Order to Snow Cause"

served and the illegal arrest of Virginia

Cramer and robbing her of $1,000.00 are

despicable, contemptible, dirty tactics,

WHEREFORE Virginia Cramer in propria

persona prays that the Court grant her motion

by special and limited appearance, to quash

service of process of Order entered on March

13, 1981, and dismiss plaintiff's Amended

Motion for Order to Show Cause, and Order

restitution of One Thousand ($1,000.00)

Dollars,

Dated: /s/ Virginia Cramer

July 13, 1981 In Propria Persona

BRIEF IN SUPPORT OF MOTION

TO QUASH SERVICE AND TO DISMISS

A special and limited appearance of

Virginia Cramer, in propria persona, filed

herein is for the sole purpose of objecting

to the jurisdiction of the Wayne County Cir-

cuit Court,

The Michigan Supreme Court's decision

and opinions rendered on December 30, 1976,

reported at 399 Mich 116, did not remand the

matter to the lower court for further pro-

97

ceedings. Also, the order of remittitur

entered by the Michigan Supreme Court Clerk,

and/or as directed by that Court, did not

remand the case or any matter to the lower

court. If a case has not been remanded to

the trial court after a decision by the

Michigan Supreme Court, the trial court does

not have jurisdiction to take further proceed-

ings. Morris v Radley, (1943) 11 NW 2d 291,

306 Mich 689,

See copy of "remittitur" entered on

January 20, 1977, in this case (attached here-

to). Where the Michigan Supreme Court affirm-

ed the "Judgment" of the trial court, and

which said "Judgment and Injunctive Order"

orders nothing, and there was nothing to

re-instate the case in the lower court on

remand, therefore, there was no remand, The

Plaintiff-State Bar of Michigan did not re-

quest any "remand", Defendant-Cramer did not

request any "remand", Without a "remand" the

lower court has no jurisdiction, See 5B CJS

Appeal and Error, at 1958. The word "remitti-

tur" is used to denote the order issued by an

Qe

Appeliate court on the decision of Cause on

appeal, directing the action to be taken or

the disposition to be made of the cause by the

lower court, as stated in Appeal and Error,

5B CJS at 1958, * * * "and it is now of the

same nature as a discontinuance, and is gov-

erned by the same rules," (emphe.sis added)

The Wayne County Circuit Court was with-

out jurisdiction to enter "Order to Show Cause"

on February 19, 1981, and on March 13, 1961.

The "Judgment and Injunctive Order" of the

Wayne County Circuit Court, affirmed by the

Michigan Supreme Court, is invalid and orders

nothing. Therefore, there was nothing to

remand,

In re: Invalid Bench Warrants signed by Judge

Richard D, Kuhn against Virginia

Cramer, Request to recall the same,

Dear Sirs:

This is a request that each of you take

the proper and immediate action to recall the

invalid bench warrants pending against Vir-

ginia Cramer, for the following reasons:

On/for about April 4, 1975, the above-named

Judge Richard D, Kuhn took illegal action

against this writer, Virginia Cramer. Shortly

thereafter, said Judge Kuhn illegally issued

two (2) bench warrants against the said Vir-

ginia Cramer, Said bench warrants are

invalid,

abecquentiy, the OAdkland County sheriff's

Uept. made three or four (perhaps more)

attempts to arrest and incarcerate the said

Virginia Cramer based upon the illegal action

and invalid and improper issuance of said

bench warrants on the part of Judge Richard

D. Kuhn.

Recently, I checked with the Oakland County

Sheriff's Dept. and I was given information

that said illegal and invalid bench warrants

against Virginia Cramer are still outstanding.

This is shocking, to say the least in view of

the grievances that were filed with the Michi-

gan Judicial Tenure Commission against Judge

Richard D. Kuhn, Judge Kuhn should have seen

fit to recall the said invalid bench warrants,

solely on the basis of propriety. Inasmuch as

he has not yet recalled the said invalid war-

rants, it is now necessary for me to draw

further attention to the illegal conduct of

said Judge Kuhn, to various and several other

persons, as shown in this letter. My concern

is also based upon the potential of being

101

wrongfully arrested, detained, or imprisoned

because of said invalid bench warrants illegal-

ly issued by said Judge Kuhn, If such unfor=

tunate incident should occur, I would have no

recourse except to institute a suit for false

arrest and/or false imprisonment. It would,

indeed, be unfortunate for others to become

victimized by the negligence and illegal

conduct of Judge Kuhn,

The law is very clear on this in Michigan,

In De Kuyper vs. De Kuyper, 113 NW 2d 604,

the Michigan Supreme YVourt held "a party

cannot be subjected to jurisdiction of a

court except by issuance (of summons) and

service of process," In that case, the courts

decision lent itself to the principle of the

law, and in the absence of an amended compl-

aint to allege facts relief upon to support

the relief sought against one not a party to

the suit, an ex parte order adding a party-

defendant in the said proceedings, did not

subject said 'party-defendant' to the court's

jurisdiction,

As to the invalid bench warrants by Judge

Kuhn against Virginia Cramer, the court

records will show conclusively that (1) no

party has amended any pleadings to add Vir-

ginia Cramer to any suit, (2) no party has

alleged a cause of action against Virginia

Cramer in Judge Kuhn's courtroom, (3) no

Summons was issued for service of process on

Virginia Cramer, and (4) therefore, Judge

Kuhn was without jurisdiction to sign said

bench warrants and that Virginia Cramer has

not voluntarily entered her appearance in any

case before Judge Kuhn.

Yours truly,

/s/ Virginia Cramer

AFFIDAVIT OF WILLIAM W, NEVILLE

WILLIAM HW, NEVILLE, being first duly

sworn, on this 13th day of November, 1981,

personally appeared before me a Notary Public,

who made oath that he has read this Affidavit

by him subscribed, knows the contents thereof

and that the same is true of his own personal

Knowledge except as to those matters stated to

108

be upon information and belief and as to those

matters he believes them to be true, as

follows:

1. That he is the William W, Neville who

was subpeonaed by H. Rollin Allen as the

attorney for the State Bar of Michigan for

proceedings held in the Wayne County Circuit

Court, State of Michigan, before the Honorable

John D, O'Hair on August 11, 1981.

2. That he appeared and gave testimony on

said date of August 11, 1981, in the said ae

ceedings before the said Honorable Jonn D,

O'Hair.

3. That he has read the transcript of the

proceedings of August 11, 1981, before the

Honorable John D,. O'Hair as appears to be sub-

mitted and filed in the United States District

Court Docket No, 81-73926 attached to the

pleadings of H. Rollin Allen under date of

October 30, 1981.

4, That pertinent herein is the Honorable

John D. O'Hair's statement on pages 7 and 8 of

the heréin aforementioned transcript of August

109

ll, 1961, as follows: (quotation)

"She is also to forthwith pay into the

Court, a sum of $95. That fee that she

charged Mr, Neville for rendering service,

immediately. The $45 will be immediately

forwarded to the clerk by Mr. Neville.

(sic, 777?) If Mrs, Cramer appears in —

court in the initiation of State Bar pro-

ceed s, it is established and the court

is satisfied that she has continued in

her unauthorized activity, she will spend

30 days in the Wayne County Jail. *

"She is on fair notice that she will spend

time in jail, 30 days specifically, if she

continues her activities, Thirty days of

imprisonment is simply imposed as a deter-

rent not as punishment. She has the

ability to stay out of jail if she wishes

to do so.

"Prepare a proposed order, Mr. Allen.

"If the $95 is not paid within the five

days as ordered, Mrs. Cramer is to ,be

committed to the - Wayne County Jail"

(Proceedings concluded,)"

5. That your affiant herein noticed that

the said herin described transcript of August

copies of pleadings by H. Rollin Allen, omits

the testimony of said William W, Neville,

affiant herein,

6. That your affiant did not request any

refund of any moneys as pertaining or relative

to or involving this matter; that he does not

110

want any repayment or refund or reimbursement

of any moneys pertaining or relative to or

involving this matter,

7. That your affiant did not authorize

anyone to request any refund to him of any

moneys involving this matter,

8. That your affiant believes that the

attorney-H. Rollin Allen has unduly imposed
