Your party, minister, was founded to combat low standards in high places, and as many of the victims of the legal profession have discovered, almost all of the low standards are directly linked to that party that your good self asked the Irish people not to give an overall majority!

I, John Gill of Drumline, Newmarket-on-Fergus, County Clare aged eighteen years and upwards make Oath and say as follows:

1. I am the Plaintiff in this matter. I make this Affidavit on my own behalf. I make this from the facts within my own Knowledge save where otherwise appearing and where so appearing I believe same to be true.

 

2. I am responding to my attendance at the hearing of my case at Court number twelve at 11.00 a.m. on 27/6/2005 with six witnesses from five different Counties.

 

3. I say and believe that this was my fourth appearance before Justice Eamon DeValera and Registrar Mr. David Neenan in Court number twelve, dates were as follows, April 25th 2005, May 9th 2005, May 30th 2005 and June 27th 2005.

 

4. I say and believe that I moved this case to the High Court in Dublin to get away from the Malicious, Wilful and Vindictive conduct that I have experienced in County Clare which include false and untruthful claims and documents prepared by the Registrars of Ennis Circuit Court Office with malicious intent to pervert the course of Justice and deny me Justice.

 

5. I say and believe that this case came before Limerick Circuit Court on 23 July 2002, before Kilrush Circuit Court on 15 October 2002, before Kilrush Circuit Court on 18 October 2002, before Kilrush Circuit Court on 7 May 2003, before Kilrush Circuit Court on 4 November 2003, before Limerick Circuit Court on 9 December 2003, before Kilrush Circuit Court on 11 February 2004, before Kilrush Circuit Court on 29 April 2004, before Ennis High Court on circuit on 15 November 2004, before Limerick High Court on Circuit on 17 November 2004, before Ennis High Court on Circuit on 3 March 2005; with witnesses attending from fifteen different counties the detail is startling.

 

6. I say and believe that in the circumstances and the fact that I have been denied the right under Article 40.6.1.i of the Constitution to express freely my convictions and opinions of the ruthless way that I have been robbed of my livelihood by John O’Doherty Auctioneer and his defence team. I feel duty bound to explain in detail where I was wronged and why I feel justified in having this case heard and brought to a conclusion in this session.

 

7. I say and believe that on Thursday, 31 March 2005 following lengthy discussions with my supporters, some of whom are University Graduates and from all walks of life, my concern was and is about all of the Perjurous, Altered and Distorted untruthful documents lodged against my character in the Court Offices and Auctioneers Office with no justifiable reason only to try and silence me by destroying my character, denying me access to my property and my money and thereby breaking my will by draining my energy to the point of surrender. One of the many suggestions, and one that I thought would be most advantageous, was to take my case away from the County Clare area to the High Court in Dublin and the following is my fate so far.

 

8. I say and believe that I took the train to Dublin and the Four Courts on 31 March 2005 to find out at first hand if this move was possible and feasible. After a briefing with two of the Central Office of the High Court staff I was given instructions on how to proceed.

 

9. I say and believe that I returned to Dublin and the Four Courts on 4 April 2005 with my Notice of Motion and Sworn Affidavit, I stamped the two Documents/Pleadings with a €20 and €15 stamp at the stamping offices in Aras Ui Dhalaigh and lodged same in the Central Office of the Four Courts and was given a hearing date of the 25th April 2005, Court Record Number 2005/125 CA.

 

10. April 25th 2005, Day One - My case was listed for hearing in Court Number Twelve before Justice Eamon DeValera at 11.00 a.m. When my case was called I was told to come up close to the bench. Despite the fact that I was the Plaintiff in this matter and a lay litigant I was from the word go hindered and obstructed. The Documents/Pleadings that I had stamped and lodged on the 4th of April were I was told not with the Justice. Because I was a lay litigant, the Solicitor for Auctioneer John O’Doherty was given every last respectful opportunity to get his point across. When I tried to explain to the Court the conduct of John O’Doherty in this case I was immediately shouted down. Justice DeValera then said that he would adjourn the case until the 9th of May and did order that I have in Court on that day my Civil Bill, the Order of the Circuit Court plus the Appeal Document. The Justice ordered that John Hickey for John O’Doherty have his Affidavit ready for that same date. John O’Doherty’s solicitor asked the Justice for a longer period of time but was refused. When we got outside the Courtroom one of my French supporters suggested that I should go to the Central Office to find out the whereabouts of the missing Documents/Pleadings. A very serious question must be asked at this stage and it is this, if there were no Documents/Pleadings before the Court how was the Court able to proceed with my case. While the Central Office assured me that my Documents/Pleadings were in order they were unable to trace the missing Pleadings.

 

11. I returned to Dublin and the Central Office again on the 27th of April and again failed to locate the Documents. When I called to the Central Office on April 29 I was given the name of the Registrar, David Neenan and his phone number to contact him directly. I was also told that, if I had the time, to go to Court number thirteen and stay there until the Court rose for lunch. Myself and retired National School Teacher Joan went to Court 13 and stayed there until the Court rose at 1.30 p.m. We met Mr. David Neenan who told us that he had found the missing documents and they were now in his possession.

 

12. May 9th 2005, Day Two - When my case was called I told Justice DeValera that this case should only take about ten minutes and Council for John O’Doherty agreed. When Mr. Lorcan Connolly, Council for O’Doherty, asked for costs I intervened and told the Court that giving costs to Mr. O’Doherty was no different to giving costs or rewarding bank robbers for robbing banks. Mr. Connolly told the court that he must get paid and in a moment of desperation tried to demean me by bringing up the old enemy (Bankruptcy) again. I intervened and told the Court that the Bankruptcy was a FRAUD. The Justice intervened and said, "Mr. Gill, as there is no one to dispute the allegation there is no proof." I told the Court of Mr. O’Doherty’s conduct, the False Documents before the Court in Kilrush and Ennis and the fact that I had to stay in Court in Kilrush for two hours while a phone call was made to John Hickey’s office to ask him drive to Kilrush from Limerick, as was the case on the 25th April and the 9th May. John O’Doherty has not attended the court. I told the Court that if John O’Doherty, his client, was honourable and told the truth we would not be in Court in the first place. I believe that I am at liberty to assume that a losing Mr. Lorcan Connolly was bailed out and rescued by Justice DeValera when Justice Eamon DeValera intervened and told me that my case was not on the appropriate list. I asked Justice DeValera what the appropriate list was and the Justice was not going to give me legal advice. Justice DeValera then said, "Put your case on the appropriate list and some Justice will hear your case or I may hear it myself." Justice DeValera then returned to me the two books of pleadings that I had given to him to replace the missing documents/pleadings together and between the two books of pleadings I found the Notice of Motion that I had stamped with the €20 stamp and was lodged at the Central Office on the 4th April 2005. This single page was ripped out of its binding; I at once went and had this page colour-copied before making a complaint to the Central Office and left one copy with a Senior Registrar. One of my witnesses remarked that maybe I should go to the Masters Court to get permission to have my case heard in High Court. When I asked the Central Office staff if this is what I should do I was told that I had followed the correct procedure and that Justice Eamon DeValera was a High Court Judge and that he should have dealt with my case.

 

13. In fact, I was told that there was no other procedure. I was then told to come back at 1.00 p.m. and speak to Registrar David Neenan. At 1.00 p.m. Mr. David Neenan told me that he would speak to Betty McGuigan. I conveyed this message to Betty McGuigan and was told to call back at 4.00 p.m. At 4.00 p.m. I called back to the Central Office to be once more disappointed. I decided to stay in Dublin overnight. I returned to the Central Office of the High Court at 11.15 a.m. on the 9th May 2005. I pulled a queue ticket and when I was called the two staff that interviewed me sent me up to the next floor to get a date for the hearing of my case from Mr. David Neenan. When we got to Mr. Neenan's office Mr. Neenan told me that I would have to go back to the Circuit Court in Clare with a Motion to get a hearing to have my case heard on transfer to Dublin.

I explained to Mr. Neenan that I had withdrawn my files from the Circuit Court Office in Ennis because of the corrupt conduct of Bríd O’Dea and Susan Dermody. Early on Mr. Neenan had excused himself to go out of the office to make a phone call. A little later Mr. Neenan excused himself to make another phone call and when he returned we were asked if we could come back at 2.00 p.m. as they would knock heads together over lunch to see what could be done, and we agreed. As we were returning at 1.50 p.m. on the river side of the Quays, O’Connell Bridge side of the Four Courts some three hundred metres from the Four Courts, I was tapped on the shoulder from behind by David Neenan and told that my case would be heard on the 30th May by Justice Eamon DeValera and were told that the other side would have their Affidavit ready.

It must be borne in mind that at 5.45 p.m. on Friday the 6th of May 2005 I received a phone call at my home in County Clare. The caller was Betty McGuigan from the Central Office of the High Court and to put it mildly it was a rather loud conversation that carried on until news time at 6.00 p.m. The only conclusion that I and six other people that I spoke to immediately afterwards which includes a retired Garda and his wife, was that an effort had been made to try to prevent me from going to the High Court on Monday the 9th to have my case heard.

While in the Central Office on the 9th May 2005 trying to find/locate an appropriate list to satisfy my case, some of the staff did suggest that I go back up to Court Number 12 and stay until 1.00 p.m. to ask Mr. David Neenan what they meant by the appropriate list. When the Justice went into his chambers I approached Mr. David Neenan who had a problem with my question and instead asked me if I had lodged the substantial document, meaning the Motion and Affidavit. I said no, but that I had a copy in my possession and that I would do so right away. I with my witness returned to the Central Office at 13.10 p.m. and again took my place in the queue. When I was called I repeated what Mr. Neenan had asked me to do. I produced the substantial document; I handed the one-hundred-and-fifty page Sworn Affidavit to Ms. McGuigan. I asked Ms. McGuigan to stamp the document/pleadings so I could notify John O’Doherty that it was lodged. Ms. McGuigan had some difficulty in stamping the document but I insisted, and she agreed with the remark (for all the good it will do)? Is the plan faltering?

The next sitting of my case was on the 30th May 2005 before Justice Eamon DeValera in Court number twelve at 11.00 a.m. This is my third time in court and it is the fourth that John O’Doherty has not appeared in Court.

When my case was called John Hickey for John O’Doherty stood up and said I thought this case was struck out on the 25th April last. The Justice replied by saying Mr. Gill will have something to say about that. Justice DeValera said that he will hear the case at 2.00 p.m. Justice DeValera also said that the missing documents, now found, were not missing through any fault of the Court staff. The Justice did not mention the Motion that was ripped out of the wire binding in the pleadings that I lodged in the Central Office on the 4th April 2005.

My case was called at 2.00 p.m. approximately. The Justice began by asking me under which rule did I bring this case into Court and my answer was that I did not know and explained as best I could the procedure that I had followed, but this was not acceptable to Justice DeValera who continued to harass me about a rule. On the 9th May it was procedure and now we are caught with a rule. It was now becoming as obvious as the nose on my face that Justice DeValera had found a way out of hearing this case.

An Undergraduate from Trinity College whose grandfather is a Justice in Russia prompted me to ask Justice DeValera in what book or where I would find information on this rule. The Justice said in any library. The Justice made a remark about this Graduate who has helped me with the preparing of my documentation for the Courts. The remark was that I should have excused myself while being in consultation with the student; I apologised.

Justice Eamon DeValera adjourned the Case until the 27th of June to give me what he called my last bite of the cherry. Judicial Bias and Prejudice is so serious I felt that something must be done to secure my property and my rights under the Constitution. Having successfully removed myself from the cruel prejudice and corrupt conduct of the County Clare duo of Bríd O’Dea and Susan Dermody I now find myself caught up in the claws of Central Office Registrar Ms. McGuigan, Registrar before Justice Eamon DeValera Mr. David Neenan and indeed the good Justice himself.

After some consultation with some of our members and supporters who from fourteen different Counties, many of whom are familiar with the enormity of Corruption, Collusion, Perjury, Fraud and Deception in this case, recommended that we should take a taxi to Molesworth Street, Government Publications Office to get a copy of the Criminal Justice (Theft and Fraud Offences Act 2001). Having obtained and purchased a number of copies, we asked the good lady for the Legislation on Judicial Bias that our Minister for Justice Mr. Michael McDowell has told us so often of the need for such legislation and which legislation has been promised so often; in fact it was promised before the Summer recess of 2005. We failed to get a copy as there were none but we purchased many copies of what the Minister Michael McDowell TD did not tell us was in print, The Committee on Judicial Conduct and Ethics Report December 2000. And this the Minister will be reminded of.

It is now our intention to ask and DEMAND that the Government and Minister for Justice Michael McDowell will ask Canada to let us have Six Honourable Judges for as long as it takes to clean up the mess without Fear, Favour, Affection or Ill-Will towards any man, and clean up the appalling mess and destruction that many of Fianna Fáil's chosen friends have subjected so many thousands of Irish Citizens to. Almost all in contravention of DeValera's Constitution and almost all complaints likened to DeValera’s Fianna Fáil.

Before going into any more of the details of my case which is a carbon copy of what has been inflicted on hundreds of victims in our Courts by the Legal and Judicial System, I will give an accurate version of my last day which will be my last day I hope before Justice DeValera, David Neenan his Registrar and or Ms. McGuigan.

When my case was called on the morning of the 27th of June 2005, as soon as I stood up to address the Court Justice DeValera asked me in an agitated tone if my case was ready to go on. I said yes and was told to hold on until the call over list was over. When my case was called Justice DeValera asked John Hickey who was in Court for Auctioneer John O’Doherty of Limerick City, what the situation was with the appeal to the Order of Supreme Court Justice Adrian Hardiman; ref: this case had been statute barred, and Mr. Hickey’s answer was that Mr. Kelly did not get back to him. No one asked who Mr. Kelly was (possibly another nonentity pulled out of the hat that Mr. Hickey forgot to wear on the day).

Justice DeValera then began the rigmarole of trying to find a way out of hearing my case, with Mr. Hickey, Solicitor for John O’Doherty bending over backwards to help him out of a very delicate situation.

I reminded Justice DeValera that this case was before the Courts on fourteen previous occasions, this being the fifteenth but the Bias and Prejudice was once again about to raise its ugly head to the extent that Justice DeValera suggested the High Court on Circuit. 'Back to Corruption, to O’Dea and Dermody' was my first thought. I told the Justice that I was given the run around and that it was an ABUSE OF PRIVILEGE. The Justice got fine and thick with me and said that he took grave exception to my remark.

It would now appear that Justice Eamon DeValera has found himself in a quagmire, and began to repay in kind. I was told, "Mr. Gill, I could have struck out the case", and an attempt was made to get me to forcibly admit that I could not tell the Honourable Justice on the 30th May 2005 what Rule I had taken my case to the High Court under. At this stage we must remember that on the 30th May 2005 Justice DeValera voluntarily told the Court that the missing documents, meaning my three books of pleadings were found and were not missing through any fault of the Court staff. When I met with Mr. Neenan in Court Number 13 on the 29th April in the company of retired National School Teacher Joan at 1.30 p.m. Mr. Neenan was in possession of my Pleadings or so Mr. Neenan had admitted to us. Ms. McGuigan of the Central Office told me that they were passed on to Mr. Neenan from the Central Office. This begs the question of where the Missing Pleadings were while they were still missing. The Pleadings were found? But they were still missing. This is mind boggling for a very simple and factual reason that on the 25th April 2005 the case was adjourned and the Honourable Justice ORDERED that I have my Civil Bill Appeal, the Civil Bill already in my Pleadings, from the Circuit Court and Order of the High Court on Circuit ready on the 9th May 2005 and ordered that John O’Doherty have his Affidavit ready on that same day (John O’Doherty did not obey the order). There were, we were told on that day, no pleadings or documents before the Court. On the 29th April the pleadings were in the possession of Registrar Mr. David Neenan in Court number 13. On the 9th May Justice DeValera told the Court that there were no Pleadings before the Court yet he read out from a page that I identified with and on that very day I handed to the Court two books of Pleadings in my possession.

The case was then adjourned to the 30th May 2005 and my two books of pleadings were handed back to me. Between the two books of pleadings I found my original stamped Notice of Motion which was lodged and stamped at the Central Office of the Four Courts on the 4th April 2005. This Motion was ripped out of the book of pleadings, which was in wire binding (who ripped them out?). Back to the beginning of this page and date 27th June 2005, Justice DeValera adjourned my case to the 10th October 2005. I, with my supporters returned to the Central Office. The first one that approached me was Ms. Betty McGuigan who asked how I got on. I said as I expected from a corrupt system, I had in my possession two pages that I requested to be lodged on my file. Ms. McGuigan was adamant that they would not go on my file.

I told Ms. McGuigan in no too uncertain terms that I wanted them on my file (she agreed) and they were stamped received 27th June, The High Court. My Fundamental Rights and personal rights under Articles 40, 1, 2, 3 and 6 of the Constitution have been in a very serious and corrupt manner, VIOLATED by the Institutions of the Irish State. A serious question must be asked, who must I go to or who can I turn to for help and assistance to recover from the so called Democratic Institutions of the Irish State who are holding from me by CORRUPT and FRAUDULENT means more that One Hundred and Fifty Thousand Euros and approximately Two Million Euros worth of Building Sites. I returned to the Central Office of The Four Courts with a Notice of Motion and Sworn Affidavit on the 30th June 2005 to re-enter this case to be heard in this session, July 2005 on the grounds of Judicial Bias and Prejudice but was hindered by Registrar Mr. David Neenan. I then decided to abandon my endeavours to write the appalling corrupt history of the democratic institutions of the Irish State in their dealings with me and my problems. The Constitution, Article 34.5 states and I quote, without fear or favour, affection or ill will towards any man. Not so in my case or my many witnesses.

On the 23rd July 2002 this case John Gill-V-John O’Doherty was before Justice Desmond Hogan in Limerick Circuit Court on a Family Court day. This was an odd situation for the following reason. At 2.00 p.m. I was called into the Courtroom and inside I was in the Company of Justice Hogan, Registrar Ken Butler and Solicitor for John O’Doherty, Gerry O’Neill. Right now I must invoke Article 40.6.i of the Constitution, the right of the citizens to express freely their convictions and opinions. I invoke this Article for the following reason - many citizens as has been written about and exposed by a very prominent and respected writer and Labour Party Activist, many of our members have been caught in the above situation behind closed doors and with malicious intent and for no other reason but to intimidate and force them into surrender and blackmail. The writer says that the numbers are unknown but they are in their thousands and they are there.

In my case, on the 23rd July 2002 charisma and charm were being used to try to have me find a Solicitor. I was told that I was like a poacher in the middle of a field with a gun and without ammunition in the gun. When that fell on deaf ears Justice Hogan told me that he was unable to drive a truck and if he needed a load of gravel he had to hire a truck driver. I made it very clear to the Justice that the Solicitors were the problem. The Justice then told me that I had used the wrong procedure and told me to prepare a Civil Bill and Statement of Claim and that I did.

On the 15th October the case was before Justice Sean O’Leary in the Circuit Court in Kilrush on an incredible bogus false prepared document by the Circuit Court Office. I caught some of the Court staff out in the act and the Skulduggery and Fraud is appalling. Justice O’Leary called the case again for the 18th October 2002 and again I exposed the corruption and Fraud.

The case came before Justice Carroll Moran in Kilrush Circuit Court again on 7th May 2003. There was no one there to defend the case for John O’Doherty, and there was what can be described as a lot of underhand activity going on. John O’Doherty’s Solicitor John Hickey arrived at 12.10 p.m. and Justice Carroll Moran’s excuse this time was to make an Order for Discovery that no one but no one delivered on (more corruption); a waste of Taxpayers' money.

The case came up again for hearing in Kilrush Circuit Court on the 4th November 2003 and we were left outside the Court from 9.45 a.m. until 2.15 p.m. Until we went to lunch the downstairs of the Court House was in total darkness while the upstairs was lit up and we could see that there were people moving around. We have no doubt they were the Circuit Court staff. When we phoned the Ennis Circuit Court staff the Justice must have been delayed and that there was nothing they could do about it. When we did get into Court at 2.15 p.m. the Justice was too busy to hear my case and adjourned the case to Limerick on the 9th of December 2003. This was Justice Carroll Moran. Before Justice Carroll Moran on the 9th December 2003 Gerry O’Neill, Solicitor for John O’Doherty did give to me what was described as an Affidavit of Discovery. This Affidavit was not Signed, Sworn or Dated and contained False Altered and Distorted documents. I objected to the non-sworn Affidavit to John Hickey, Solicitor and received a Sworn Copy on the 15th April 2004 and Sworn on the 9th December 2003.

The case was before Justice O’Hagan at Kilrush Circuit Court on the 11th February 2004. Justice O’Hagan made a decision not to hear the case and promised me that he was instructing Registrar Bríd O’Dea to list my case first on the list on the next sitting. From notes taken by witnesses in Court the scene in Court was a Farcical Joke (back in the claws of the wolves once more?).

The struggle to have my case listed as per Order of Justice O’Hagan was a nightmare and I eventually got it listed for the 29th April 2004 before Justice Carroll Moran. The case went on for most of the day. I had in the witness stand, Solicitor Richard O’Hanrahan, former Solicitor of John O’Doherty who was in a daze and could not remember anything. John O’Doherty who lied about almost everything and handed to the Court while in the Witness stand False, Altered and Distorted Documents. Witness John Clancy told the Court that he had paid John O’Doherty £3,500.00 cash outside John Casey & Co Solicitors Office before signing inside Casey’s Office. Larry Walsh told the Court that he did not know that I John Gill was 50% owner of the Development property that he had purchased from John O’Doherty, which included twenty-eight building sites and was sold to Walsh by O’Doherty for £21,000.00. Richard O’Hanrahan told the Court that he was not aware of any money being paid under the table. I was accompanied in Court by fourteen witnesses on the day.

Justice Carroll ruled that the case was Statute Barred even though the Property was held in TRUST by O’Doherty for me, John Gill. I at once appealed the decision of Justice Carroll Moran to the High Court on Circuit in Ennis.

On the 15th November before Supreme Court Justice Adrian Hardiman, John O’Doherty in the Witness stand was exposed and presented with many altered and distorted documents that he had sworn in his Affidavit. Sworn on the 9th December 2003 and while in the Witness Stand in Kilrush on the 29th April 2004. John O’Doherty was told to stand down from the Witness Stand. Justice Adrian Hardiman ruled that the Trust property was not Statute Barred.

Lorcan Connolly, Council for John O’Doherty asked the Court for costs or it is reasonable to say costs for Perjury, Forgery, Distortion of documents and Perverting the course of Justice (Theft and Fraud Offences Act 2001) The case was moved to Limerick High Court on Circuit to decide on costs on the 17th November 2004. This gave me the opportunity to prepare a Sworn Affidavit of the extent of Fraud and Corruption of John O’Doherty. The case was again before the High Court on Circuit at Ennis on 3rd March 2005.

On the 3rd March 2004 I came before Supreme Court Justice Brian McCracken. When my case was called, Justice McCracken recognised me and asked about a conflict of interest, and being mindful of Article 34.5.i of the Constitution I told Justice McCracken that I had no problem with him hearing my case despite the fact that Justice McCracken stopped me from interrupting Lorcan Connolly for John O’Doherty when he was misleading the Court. The Justice also said that he was trying to help me. The opposite in my opinion was the truth. My case was not heard and again the farcical situation prevailed, adjourned to October 2005. A true example of the appalling corrupt conduct of the Democratic Institutions of the Irish State. Who can believe it? What can we say about Zimbabwe or the Mafia?

While I have personally spoken to upwards of five hundred Irish and European Citizens many with young families and many who were 70 to 90 years of age and all very well aware that the greedy, grabbing element of the Irish Legal Profession are waiting as they describe: Waiting for them to snuff it?

We have now proved what all, and every one, were even scared to whisper about until very recent times and it is a fact that a serious element of the Irish Judicial system, form a large part, and are responsible for the devastation destruction and the appalling heartbreak suffered by so many Irish families and Irish Citizens down through the years. I have been reminded on so many occasions about all of the people who have taken their own lives, of the many who have had heart attacks, of the many families who have been broken up and destroyed as a direct result of what up to now they were scared to talk about, the corrupt and crooked conduct of the Irish Legal Profession at the very highest level.

It is a fact that at least some of the Judges in my case have brought the profession into disrepute and are in violation of the Oath to uphold the constitution and the Laws of the State.

In the presence of Almighty God, they have not acted without fear or favour, affection or ill-will towards any man, and are therefore in breach of the Irish Constitution and the Laws of the Irish State (Article 34.5.i of the Constitution).
