Title: Georgia Judge Fines 'Birther' Lawyer Orly Taitz $20,000

Orly Taitz, the California lawyer known for her vocal and litigious leadership in the "birther" movement, has been slapped with a $20,000 fine by a District Court in Georgia for "wasting the Defendants' time" in a case one of her clients brought against the U.S. Army. The court ruled that Taitz violated Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, which stipulates that attorneys will not sign onto cases that are clearly brought with dishonest or frivolous motives.

The case, in which Army Capt. Connie Rhodes sought a restraining order for her pending deployment to Iraq on grounds that President Obama is not a valid commander in chief, was part of Taitz's nationwide legal campaign to prove that Obama was not born in the United States. The court's decision, excerpted by the Washington Independent, says the suit was brought in "bad faith," and calls Taitz's legal conduct "willful and not merely negligent."

"Counsel's frivolous and sanctionable conduct wasted the Defendants' time and valuable judicial resources that could have been devoted to legitimate cases pending with the Court," the judge wrote in the decision.

The Rhodes case was dismissed on Sept. 16. with an opinion that hinted at the court's displeasure with Taitz. It took a strange turn just days after that ruling, when Rhodes claimed she had never given Taitz permission to request a stay in her name, and said she was filing a complaint against Taitz with the California bar.

That needs to be contested and fought vigorously.

It's fine to disagree. The law should never penalize somebody for bringing forth a suit that they feel is justified.

This punishment smacks of overt political censorship of opinions contrary to the sitting administration.

So if a guy who is on drugs and drunk walks into your yard and trips over your kid's toy Tonka truck and breaks his neck and sues you for $1000000.00 and he feels that is a justified case?? Would you still feel the same?

Massive tort cases are brought forth by lawyers who feel their cases are justified. One reason why you buy a new ladder and you cannot see what color it is because of the 75 safety decals plastered over it.

The judge is free to toss the case out. Which he should.

Prohibitive fining is little more than retribution.

No, it's a prohibitive measure aimed at others who would emulate Dr. Lawyer Indian Chief types like Oily Taint by wasting the court's time.

Hopefully she's not as bad a dentist as she is a lawyer. People could get hurt.

Actions have consequences. The cost for her stupidity (this time) is $20000.

How cute.

Or maybe you don't understand my point of view. It happens sometimes.

US_GRANT always plays it "cute."

She understands you, but is merely very protective of her messiah.

Well, you know how it goes. Some animals are more equal than other animals.
