PRESS RELEASE: Haas v Romney RICO - Judge Approves Mitt Romney's Extended time to Answer

On October 18, 2013, yours truly sued Willard Mitt Romney, Bain Capital, Goldman Sachs (and their co-Defendant attorneys, cohorts) for many violations of the Racketeering ACT of 1970. *(See previous DU thread on my Press Release November 2013 - {here} - and the actual {initial} Press Release - {here}) .

Since then, after the Defendants were properly/time served their Summons in February 2014 ( See Docket Stamped Proofs of Serve {here} and {here}).

PRESS RELEASE

April 2, 2014 -



Romney's co-Defendants includes his law firms and one law firm partner (Colm Connolly) who was (secretly) arranged to become the United States Attorney in Delaware in August 2001 (the same time Mitt wants to be "retroactively" retired). Defendants Goldman Sachs, Paul Traub and Colm Connolly have failed to respond (and we will move for Default judgment soon). The MNAT law firm, Greg Werkheiser thereof and Paul Traub's partner (Barry Gold) have put forth Motions to Dismiss case and Objections to Amended Complaint.

When the Clerk of Court put in the fact that the Summons were SERVED in "compliance" with Fed.R.Civ.Proc - that is when Mitt Romney put forth his request to me to extend time. I granted it (because the court most likely would have granted it anyway) as I'm putting forth a Motion to Amend my Complaint(s). I can't object to a party not answering a Complaint I'm no longer utilizing.




It's now going to get VERY real;
because the giant (Goliath) is paying attention.

And I'm not even a David by compare - I'm just an amoeba to those goons!

Additionally, there's many other stories about this case on the web (though not by main stream). Such as the one by Ann Werner (who provided the above picture) at Liberals United. Ann Werner's story "Romney Sued for RICO in Fed Court" received over 30,000 Facebook "likes". There's also Addicting Info's story "Romney Slapped with Racketeering Lawsuit" (which rec'd over 125,000 Facebook "likes" and "Shares".

RMuse at PoliticusUSA.com

The writer who goes by the moniker "Rmuse" of PoliticusUSA.com, has written a plethora of stories about this case and wrote one (when the election was over) "Meet the Man Battling Romney & Bain for 12 years".

Rmuse also has the stories "Public Records Reveal Romney Benefited from Corruption (Colm Connolly) and Racketeering". Rmuse knew I was studying the RICO laws and kept a lid on it (until I filed the case) and then wrote "One of His {Romney's} Victims Files Racketeering Case"

We'll know soon enough, come April 14, 2014,

IF this case is going to trial!

Just have to hope & pray that the mayhem (and suicides in this case already);
are in their "program" for me.

It just got REAL real - with Romney joining the fray.

If corruption is kept at bay.

Much more is on the way!
