Rob Ryser of the CT POST reported as follows
"Ideally, when 96-year-old Louis Russo had to leave his home temporarily, the probate judge would have appointed someone who understood his wishes and who wanted to carry them out.
Instead, under the care of a court-appointed conservator, the World War II veteran, who had always lived independently, was stripped of his rights, relegated to a nursing home and drained of his life savings.
Russo's friends and supporters are channeling their energy into getting him back into his New Fairfield house by Veterans Day. Meanwhile, their outrage has intensified calls for review, reform and legislation to ensure that there aren't more cases like his..."

Once a sleazy lawyer or other "professional" gets appointed by a judge in this state, the litigant will soon be bankrupt.
ReplyDeleteCatherine, I am pleased to see that you are not limiting your blog entries and attention to merely Family Court,DCF, custody, and ADA (all related to Family Court) news and commentary. I say that because, as most of us know or who have suffered the cross-forum legal abuses, one helluva lot of what may originate in in Family Court proceedings (a la an ostensible seemingly plain-vanilla seeking divorce suit at outset) too often finds its 'vampire squid' tentacles reaching, and having profound repercussions, into a whole host of EQUALLY abusive and orchestrated financially devastating forums that inevitably sit in sync with Family Court "decisions". By that I mean, inevitably, Civil Forums such as Foreclosure Proceedings (gotta drain that marital asset too - or 'use' it), as well as the even more 'lawless' Court forum in CT....Probate Court. Of which trusts, personal estates and Family assets, as well as parental rights, personal and PROPERTY 'rights', can, and often do, find themselves abridged unlawfully in parallel form. Oh and yes....then there's Tax Court forum as well, as let us not forget that ALL financial events inevitably have the IRS as a third-spouse or third party interest in the above three named Court Forums as well.
ReplyDeleteWhat a far reaching racket and tangled web of deceit can - and is - being 'used' in these several Abuse of Power forums. Like I said, often originating from Family Court as the first door entered into Legal Hell in CT.
Keep up the good work connecting those dots and making people aware of ALL cross-forum news exposes accordingly.
It's famously referred to as "Follow The Money".
Every now and again we hear of a heartwarming rescue story of the illegally obtained CT Probate Courts holding human's and their bank accounts and assets hostage. All in the name of soaking money. This is predatory practice and illegal pretense and practice cloaked under falsified judicial proceedings. So was the great melt-down Great Recession insofar as fraudulent foreclosures. Is there a difference here that is escaping Federal Law Enforcement or investigatory purview? I think not. Where, besides the VAF is the HUD in this obvious case? And others?
