19. Such Affirmation induced the Court to proceed with jurisdiction when no such
jurisdiction existed.
20. The pure essence of judicial independence is that anyone litigant or lawyer
appearing before a judge can be certain that the judge will rule according to the
applicable rules, precedent and procedures without any bias or prejudice against
either party.
21. The American Bar Association was quoted; Judges should report to the
misconduct on the part of lawyers and judges which they believe would support
22. The American Bar Assocation Model Code of Judicial Conduct 3B imposes a
“duty” on judges to take appropriate disciplinary action with regard to illegal
conduct by lawyers appearing before judges.
23. A. The Rules Governing Judicial Conduct. In New York State, the Rules Governing Judicial
Conduct, 22 NYCRR Part 100 (the Rules), set standards for the ethical conduct of judges and
candidates for judicial office, as well as certain quasi-judicial employees of the court system, such
as Judicial Hearing Officers. These Rules, based largely on the American Bar Association’s Model
Code of Judicial Conduct, not only provide guidance but also set forth certain binding obligations,
the violation of which can result in disciplinary action by the New York State Commission on
Judicial Conduct (the Commission). They are intended to help maintain the integrity of the
judiciary and to ensure that judges uphold their duties as neutral arbiters of the law. Not every
transgression warrants discipline, however, as the Rules are intended to be “rules of reason.” [22
NYCRR 100, Preamble.] Just as in the disciplinary process for attorneys, factors such as the
seriousness of the transgression, the frequency of occurrence, and the effect the conduct has on
the functioning of the judicial system, determine which sanctions, if any, should be imposed. [Id.]
24. Like the New York Code of Professional Responsibility, which focuses on a lawyer ‘s behavior
both in and out of office, the Rules delineate appropriate conduct not only in the performance of
the judge’s judicial duties, but in the judge’s everyday life as well. In fact, the Rules specifically
address certain activities the judge may wish to undertake as a member of the community and as
a private citizen, such as attending political gatherings, speaking at bar association programs, or
writing exclusive of judicial opinions. First and foremost, the Rules require that a judge must
“uphold the integrity and independence of the judiciary” through “maintaining and enforcing
high standards of conduct,” [22 NYCRR 100.1], and require a judge to “avoid impropriety and the
appearance of impropriety in all of the judge’s activities.” [22 NYCRR 100.2 (emphasis added).]
These all-encompassing provisions require judges at all times to be cognizant of their obligations
as members of the judiciary.
25.
26. Only Section 100.3 directly addresses judicial duties. Because a judge must perform these
“impartially and diligently,” this section outlines the judge’s official duties, such as deciding
cases; performing administrative duties such as appointing staff; discharging disciplinary
responsibilities, such as reporting the misconduct of others; and observing obligations regarding
recusal and disqualification.
27. The Rules Governing Judicial Conduct (the Rules) specifically state that “[a] judge, who receives
information indicating a substantial likelihood that a lawyer has committed a substantial
violation of the Code of Professional Responsibility shall take appropriate action.” [22 NYCRR
100.3(D)(2) (emphasis added).] It is left to the judge’s discretion to determine whether the two
conditions, a substantial likelihood and a substantial violation, are met. The Advisory Committee
on Judicial Ethics (ACJE) has offered some guidance for identifying a “substantial violation.” In
Opinion 06-99, examining whether the Rules required the inquiring judge to report a lawyer who
had just lost a malpractice trial before a jury, the ACJE noted in language that parallels DR 1-103
that “a substantial violation is one that implicates the attorney’s honesty, trustworthiness, or
fitness as a lawyer.” [NY Jud. Adv. Op. 06-99 citingOpinions 89-74; 89-54.] When a judge
concludes that a substantial likelihood of a substantial violation exists, however, the judge must
take action, such as by reporting the lawyer to the appropriate disciplinary committee. This duty
to report is not optional. [22 NYCRR 100.3(D)(2); NY Jud. Adv. Ops. 06-99; 06-24; 05-30.]
28. Therefore, Plaintiff demands relief pursuant to [22 NYCRR 100.3(D)(2); NY Jud. Adv.
Ops. 06-99; 06-24; 05-30.] based on the attached Certified copy as Exhibit “B.”

Commericial Security Agreement, UCC Lien and Injunction which establishes I have a

[Eleanor Phillips] resides outside of the jurisdiction and was therefore unavailable, she
