The journey to setting up Civil Justice has been an interesting one ,  and its path can only be seen by looking back through the events and the injustices  which  have come to our attention and  have  put the spotlight on the need for a proactive lobby and support group  for those  who  are in the civil courts.

As a former Police Prosecutor , I believed that our  law was  fair and just , but that was  many  years ago  before privatization and  before the time that New Zealand followed the example of he Unites States and became very litigious.

We now see the ” civil” jurisdiction  being used  for  any thing and every thing , it is  a tool of oppression a method of beating up  and stealing  from people in a manner which  if done without a lawyer would be at the very least robbery.

Robbery is defined as ” theft accompanied by violence or threats of violence, to any person or property, used to extort the property stolen or to prevent or overcome resistance to its being stolen.”

Assault is defined in section 2 of the crimes act  as “assault means the act of intentionally applying or attempting to apply force to the person of another, directly or indirectly, or threatening by any act or gesture to apply such force to the person of another, if the person making the threat has, or causes the other to believe on reasonable grounds that he has, present ability to effect his purpose; and to assault has a corresponding meaning”

so often things are taken  from  people using the court after they have been a good old financial thrashing which has affected their health , in the end the item is  handed over purely on economic grounds  and  to take the  pressure off and the threats that this action could   cost you your house.

And so because of the  lack of  rights of the  civil litigant, the lack of evidence, low standard of proof and the propensity for perjury and using strategy to win we  frequently see instances which would be serious crimes act offences  being  implemented with  the sanction  and assistance of the court.

It has reached the stag where the civil jurisdiction is  used to pervert the course of justice , it  works  extremely well.

Any one who has been  taken to the civil court will soon discover that this court does not hold true to any of the expectations you have of justice  and winning simply depends on how well you are versed with  Sun Tzu  Art of War  and how dirty you are prepared to be. There is apparently no room for conscience or ethics in the  civil Court.

In short the civil jurisdiction is all about strategy and winning at all costs, it is about pitting  those with money agaisnt those  with assets  and forcing one  to surrender to the other.

It is  like gambling  you may have the best hand but if you  don’t have the money to see  the other parties  cards  then  you  lose.

You have no  rights  and no protection  and perjury is  accepted  because no one is held accountable to the truth  and  fabricated evidence is also  acceptable and has  almost become the norm.

The reality is that  our  court system operates on  an antiquated system based on medieval law, there is no accountability to the truth.

Currently the statistics  for perjury  reflect that it sis imply not enforced which means that  truth in our courts  is not a factor.

There are many strategies to winning  and your best chances are to have a lawyer  who owns a race horse with the Judge. Reputation is KING. Being a pleb does not  afford you any rights. Unfortunately most of us are Plebs.

Lawyers are not accountable to the law society  , which appears  to act as  an over protective mother protection them from the accusations that  the nasty clients make rather than making  the lawyers accountable to the rule of law. Experience has taught us that  the over protective mothers frequently  have the most vile children.

Judges  do not have an enforcible code of conduct  and to make a complaint agaisnt a judge  will only have one affect and that is  to  ensure that you remain in the court system for a very long time  and that you will never see justice.

Civil Law must be the greatest money making machine in history , it is being given an over haul  so now is our time to  act .

We are looking for members,  for support, for stories of injustice.

We are wanting to  help set up support groups  so that those with similar issues  can work together.  No one should go through the process alone .

We are wishing to help those in

• Family court  on  custody matters, relationship property, protection issues and anything else
• Disputes tribunal
• Employment Relations Authority
• District court Civil jurisdiction
• High court   Insolvency Bankruptcy   and civil jurisdiction

The help we can provide  is  by dispelling the myths  about the court , making you aware  of the strategies which will   come up, puttin you in touch with others  who  have gone through  or going  through the same. the same.

Provide litigation  support   by assisting  with   the provision of case law ,  evidence   and   advice  on  how to instruct your lawyer and which lawyers to avoid.

Assist in making   complaints to the law society and monitoring  complaints .

We will not support any one  who is using the court in an unethical manner   or who  is not  entirely honest.

we hope to  develop into a charity and  have charitable funds available to assist those in need .

But in the end  this  is to be a community  where we all work together  and mutually expose the  unfairness of the justice  system  so that the corrupt  use of the  court can be eliminated.

will you be on board ?
