With so many lawsuits filed every day in America, one more might seem irrelevant. There is one however that should be watched, but will most likely escape notice. For a little while at any rate…
Last summer, hundreds of Chrysler and GM Dealers lost their franchises in the Chrysler bankruptcy sale. Many of those dealers vowed to fight what they saw as a heavy miscarriage of justice. It was simply un-American, and shocking to find that something like this could happen here, that the government could take over a private business, and then take that business away from hundreds of private dealerships. Many of those dealers had profitable businesses; in some cases those businesses had been run by families successfully for 50 years, in some cases more.
Neil Cavuto welcomed former Chrysler dealer James Anderer to his show on Fox Business News Daily to talk about a case that has been filed by a group of dealers who lost their businesses in the Washington D.C. District Court. (Update: Cavuto's show was guest hosted by Charles Payne who did the interview) Lead Plaintiff Anderer mentioned a team of legal experts while describing the case to Cavuto, and an anonymous source has named Leo Donofrio and Steve Pidgeon as having been retained by a group of Chrysler dealers who lost their franchise in the Chrysler bankruptcy sale. They have been retained to bring two actions:
1. A motion to reconsider the Court's approval of the dealer rejections.
2. A quo warranto in the D.C. District Court pertaining to Obama and his administration.
The Bankruptcy case will be brought in the Southern district of New York Bankruptcy Court, the Quo Warranto will be brought in the Washington D.C. District court, the only court in the nation where a Quo Warranto can be filed against a sitting President.
This case may initially slide under the MSM radar; however, it may be the single most serious case to be brought against The Obama Administration and the President himself to date.
Dec 16th the video of Mr. Anderer was posted on the internet. Here is his appearance on the Fox Business News show on December 4th, 2009. - D. Cotter 12-21-2009

Leo Donofrio, should be the one to spearhead a writ of quo warranto in DCDC and the US auto industry has been damaged by Obama. Fantastic!
This will shake a few apples out of the tree.
GO LEO!!!
Leo Donofrio, should be the one to spearhead a writ of quo warranto in DCDC and the US auto industry has been damaged by Obama. Fantastic!
This is wonderful news. Let's keep them in our prayers and most of all, keep things in perspective as not to start undue rumors from the left. As we know, the Left is very capable of coming up with them on their own. Let's let them bury themselves!
Leo's been quiet of late in the blogosphere, but he's long talked of this being the big one. I hope he's right. Best wishes to Leo and the Constitution.
But what if Leo starts seeing black helicopters and men in yellow suits again and doesn't dare leave his house?
If this is true, this is great news. Whether or not he is involved, Leo Donofrio deserves much credit for providing a forum where the issue can be discussed and a strategy (quo warranto) can be described. Thank you Leo Donofrio!
Leo is my hero.
Using quo warranto as an indirect attack through civil law is a long shot at best. Another huge hurdle will be getting the DOJ to appoint a special prosecutor to go after Obama's ineligibility. Let us all keep our fingers crossed for Leo and the Constitution!
quo warranto is just another birther wet dream
get over it wingnuts
Great post and I dearly hope it is true. Mr. Donofrio has uniquely held fast that to defend a Republic of laws it is imperative to unhypocritically apply those laws aptly.
Taitz, Berg, Appuzo, et al have bastardized law, put forth incompetent litigation, and placed thier respective clients secondary to vanity and hubris.
If I were preparing to enter into a significant QW challenge, I might suspend the entirety of my blog and "go dark".
Again, great post. I originally read it at Dave Crockett's "The Betrayal".

Ahhh, knew he was up to something. Kinda wondered where Dianna has been on this lately. Pleased to know things are still in motion.
Rebel on Leo!
Fantastic news! Chrysler dealers who lost it all certainly are an "interested party" according to Leo's analysis. Persons who lost their profitable business due to no fault of their own can likely show injury. What's the defense? They didn't sell enough cars? The standing issue just might be resolved.
My only question is since the DoJ already interjected itself into the issue by defending Obama, how is it the DoJ is the only authority that can appoint a special procsecutor? Isn't a matter of filing the QW in court and the DoJ having recuse itself because of a conflict of interest and therefore have no choice but to appoint a SP?
I don't see how the media can ignore this one. Great job Dianna!
This is newswothy? Car salesmen failed? borderraven comments?

"it may be the single most serious case to be brought against The Obama Administration and the President himself to date"
...and what does that actually tell you about the "cases"? :-)
As Leo Donofrio states on his website, "Emotional pleas do not sway federal courts. Only the cold hard force of legal will does."
See: www.Naturalborncitizen.wordpress.com
The obvious question is why would the Founders include both “natural born citizen” and “citizen” in Article II, Section 1, Clause 5, of the Constitution which states the requirements to serve as POTUS, unless they recognized the two terms had different meanings?
Americans must understand that natural born citizenship is determined at birth. A natural born citizen is one who is born in the U.S. and whose mother and father are both U.S. citizens. Persons with dual citizenship, such as Obama, are not natural born citizens. The Founders recognized some of their own group of Founders were not natural born citizens, so they included “or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution” in clause five (5) to allow those who were not natural born citizens to serve as our first presid
Jean continued:
...to serve as our first presidents. This is sometimes referred to as the Grandfather Clause.
The Founders thought a citizen could serve as a representative or senator but they believed the Commander in Chief and holder of the highest office in the land must meet a higher requirement to serve in order to prevent the possibility of divided loyalties. At the time, many living in the colonies were loyal to Great Britain. Thus, the Founders imposed the requirement of being a “natural born citizen” for someone to serve as POTUS, to help insure the survival of the fledgling country.
A similar situation today would be if Castro, Chavez or Achmadinijad came to the United States and fathered a child by a U.S. citizen. If that child grew up to become president, with whom would his/her loyalties lie – the mother or the father? Would the republic survive if loyalties lay with the father?
NaturalBornSubject.Wordpress.com says:
'The British Law was the custom that controlled Barack Obama II ’s citizenship status. It is the precedent established for exercising continuous sovereign authority over its state. This deciding principle upon which one relies for guidance directs us to reason that the legal prerogative inhering in the British Crown determines the extent of jurisdiction or “say so” in the matter.'

We must take heart: the Obots have recognized the writ of quo warranto. They might disagree with us (or hate us, even). But this is evidence that we are pushing back the frontiers of ignorance. They're using OUR LEXICON.
Oh boy!!! Leo's in a manic phase again!!! Gotta love the unmedicated bipolar!!

This is awesome news...Thrilled that James Anderer contacted Leo on this !
I did email Mr. Anderer through his Island Jeep site to read Leos blog...glad he did !!
Bravo Leo, Steve and James Anderer !!!!
Blessings
I wonder if Leo will sign off on the documents as Leo Donofrio or The Paraclete?
Anyone who believes a suit against GM to overturn a bankruptcy, which plan was approved by the bankruptcy court, can be back-doored into a birther eligibility claim really needs to go back on their meds.
Here's wishing both Steve and Leo great success (along with their client/s of course).
The other attorneys mentioned by a poster earlier, however, are hardly "bastardizing" their clients but are instead taking a differing approach from the barrister-pair in this instance. I surely hope that one or more of these approaches is successful. It's sorely needed by our country!! I see the "usual Obots" are chiming in ...
I wonder if Leo presented this story of his to the car dealers as an example of his legal work :-)

I guess that's little Scotty's attempt at witticism, but it sadly misses the mark: I don't mock even nearly everything I see but mostly just republikooks in general and Birfoons in particular. They're such big, fat, slow (witted) targets that the temptation is simply impossible to resist.
P.S. Everybody please read Leo's own account of his epic odyssey to the Supreme Court. It's stupendously illuminating:

To the moderater:
I not sure why my post appears three times as I did not knowingly attempt to do this. I have refreshed the page a few times and each time my computer gave a message about resending data. Maybe that caused the problem. If possible, please remove the duplicate posts.
I see the pathetic little misfit troll absurdick is at it again. How does it feel to be such a low level minion for the New World Order? Are you one of the fired Acorn workers? Before Obama's election I'm sure you guarded some broken down one lane horse bridge somewhere. One more question. Why are the conservative women good looking and the liberal women well...not so much?
Erica,
I think it is because you are hitting the refresh button and it keeps refreshing your comments as well.
Oh goody, the little *itch is back! Haven't you been slapped around enough lately? So, please tell which conservative women excite you the most:

I attempted to update Wikipedia's Quo Warranto page, but when I used a link to this article as a reference, I received a message saying this entire site is blacklisted. I was forced to select another reference link, but I will attempt to follow their instructions to request a site be removed from their blacklist. Now we must watch to see what Wikipedia does next. To see what I have written before someone interferes, see "Quo Warranto Today:

Thanks for the article Dianna! Obviously there are a bunch of mindless Obots trolling. It is very important that these lawsuits make their way through the courts.
The assault on our country is relentless. It is not about health care, it is not about global warming, it is not about CO2, it is all about power, power over another human being. We all have rights, rights given to us before the constitution. Those rights must not be taken away by the government. However, if a big enough crisis can be created, if enough panic can be created, if enough fear can be created, then the will of the people to resist collapses as we tire from the battle.
Keep up the good fight and to all, remember to say NOT TO TYRANNY!! YES TO FREEDOM!!!

On October 5, 2009, WLF filed a brief in the U.S. Supreme Court, urging it to review (and ultimately to overturn) an appeals court decision that threatens to undermine the preference rights of secured creditors in bankruptcy. The case arose in connection with the high-profile bankruptcy of Chrysler, in which the U.S. Treasury orchestrated a sale under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code to avoid the debtors’ having to fully compensate a group of first lien priority creditors, which included two funds invested on behalf of roughly 100,000 retired teachers and police officers from Indiana. WLF argued that the bankruptcy court’s approval of Chrysler’s Section 363 sale in bankruptcy, and the Second Circuit’s subsequent affirmance, would erode investor confidence and lead to instability in the nation’s credit markets.

To show that I'm not all snark and negativity and as thanks for all the entertainment you Birfoons are providing, here's a gift to all y'all: a genuine Hawaiian birth certificate controversy that can surely be spun somehow to fit into the Obama conspiracies. I can't imagine how, but I'm confident that Birfoons can. :-)

You'll just confuse them, acerbic.
Can anybody cite where Dononfrio is actually a practicing lawyer, or is he going to try the pro se approach?
Is there a link to the Anderer interview?
Isn't the window for appeal closed by now and didn't the rejection of prior appeals by the Courts enough of a hint.
And finally, NBC and President Barack Obama used to drive a Chrysler when he was in the Senate. Is this how you repay brand loyalty?
This case would be over in discovery! Lets atleast have discovery and see the truth.
I can only assume that your reference comes from my name twist for you. In your case it is because your arguments are absurd and you are a dick (jerk). I have no problems with gay people. It’s funny however that the so called ’liberals’ like you have no problems throwing them under the bus when it suits them. It’s much the same as the ’liberal’ argument of the ‘evil right’. When the fact is that all the tyrants come from the left (Hitler, Stalin, Chavez, Moa, Pol Pot, Kim Jon Ill etc…).

[Secured stockholders are to be paid first and then non-secured stockholders. This was the first time in US History that this was not done. The President said that the full weight of the White House would be used against anyone that stands in the way of this bankruptcy. All other parties that had filed lawsuits withdrew theirs. We as secured stockholders have been offered 29 cents on the dollar. The United Auto Workers which had non-secured stock were given 59 cents on the dollar. The ISP portion is small $147,000 compared to the other two funds. The US Supreme Court will decide on December 4th whether they will hear the case. If they decide not to hear this case, that will be the end of it.]

[Whereas before it was easier to scapegoat certain evil, vicious hedge fund managers who could much easier be stripped of their fiduciary obligations and painted for the greedy, disgusting animals they are, Obama and Rattner will have a much more difficult time playing the blame game on this occasion, where the actual impaired party is so much closer to the people for whom it is a fiduciary, in this case, as the filing notes, roughly 100,000 ordinary men, women and children in the state of Indiana.]
