Sorry, Orly -- judge throws out fake Kenyan birth certificate

On Saturday, Orly Taitz filed in federal court the forged Kenyan birth certificate for President Obama that she'd discovered. It lasted in the file for less than a week -- on Thursday, a judge ordered the motion that Taitz had submitted stricken from the court record.

There was no hearing on the merits of the motion, or of the purportedly Kenyan document; it was tossed on procedural grounds.

In the order, which can be downloaded in PDF form here, the judge says the motion was improperly filed "for the following reasons: Lacks proper notice; improper form and format; Counsel failed to identify her Cal. State Bar No.; description of motion conflicts or differs from that which counsel entered on Court's e-docket."

Taitz could file another motion, accompanied again by the forged birth certificate -- but she'll have to overcome the mistakes she made with this filing, and that might prove difficult. The electronic court record for the case, in which she's representing Alan Keyes, among others, is filled with similar procedural errors on her part. . .

Poor Oily, and the FReepers. Oh well, they are moving away from birtherism to outright violence now. Good luck with that.

1. That's what happens when you get your law degree from a correspondence law school. Nutbag.

2. How she ever passed the bar exam is the greatest mystery of our time.

6. I thought she was a dentist

Anyone can file a motion in court, on their own behalf.

8. Do you think the court would dismiss a pro se action for failure to list her state Bar number?

She's a lawyer. A very, very bad lawyer.


And she's filing lawsuits, not motions. And she's filing them for clients, which is the practice of law. She's licensed in California.

10. She must have gone to a law correspondence school

She sure wasn't born in the USA.

[TexasObserver]

11. That's exactly what she did.

I can't believe California let her take the bar, or that she passed it.

3. I wonder how the judge managed to keep a straight face during all this. n/t

4. Dupe Thread

Actually, it's the third thread.

5. She appears to be incompetent. It seems she has no idea what she's doing.

The mistakes described above are those a 2nd year law student might make, but it would be very rare indeed to see a bar-certified attorney make all those mistakes in the same motion.

7. Harvard Law Grad she ain't.

that's for sure

9. It's not a very happy week for the freep demographic.

Wailing all night, they are.

12. Maybe someone took her bar exam for her, using her name. Not unheard of.

Did she go to an online dental school, too?

BTW, she's also a real estate agent.
