Re: Ex Parte Appearance for OSC re contempt
Our File No. SC102-003
Dear Mr. Armstrong:
I write to apprise you that I shall appear December 2 at 9:30
a.m. before the Hon. Gary Thomas in Courtroom H of the Marin County
Superior Court to seek an order to show cause re contempt arising out
of your recent actions in creating and publishing certain documentary
works over the internet, in granting interviews to various English and
German media and other actions taken by you while in Germany.
Very truly yours,
WILSON CAMPILONGO LLP

I can't make the 0930 appearance, and if anyone else can, please feel
free. (Marin SC No. 157680)
I think cult leader David Miscavige is so desperate for a "win" at any
cost that he sends his pettifoggers and PIs after me because I'm such
an easy target. Imagine DM convincing all his lieutenants and paid
professionals that Gerry Armstrong must be stopped, as if I'm some
kind of threat to anyone. The only possible threat I could be is if
the cult continues to attack me, not because of anything I do but
because they attack themselves.
This latest effort to have me jailed should put to rest forever
Scientology's claims of persecution. Nobody is seeking to stop
Scientologists from speaking freely. It is only the Scientologists who
seek to stop free speech. Nobody is trying to suppress the
Scientologists from their expression of their religion. It is only the
Scientologists who are trying to suppress religious expression.
Remember, the only thing Scientology is trying to prevent in having me
jailed is my speaking the truth. What I am trying to prevent in
speaking the truth, and in bringing my defamation case, is
Scientology's black propaganda campaign of lies.
I have absolutely no regrets, as unhappy and as threatened as
Miscavige and his Scientologists have at times made my life, for
speaking out and offering my help to people this cult has been
abusing. It only takes one person to bring to light Scientology's
suppression of speech and religious expression with its criminal
"contracts" and their judicial and extrajudicial enforcement. And it
only takes one person to ultimately have these "contracts" and
Scientology's suppression of basic human rights judicially and
societally condemned and ended forever. Fortunately I have thousands
of fellow fighters who meet here on ARS to see this task to its happy
end.
Thanks.

Gerry: just wondering about you. I recently downloaded an article about
COS attorneys from 1992 where you were prominately figured. The
description of your personal appearance was striking: everyone was drawn
to you because of your looks, like a Jesus Christ. Do you know the
article I am refering to?
Anyway, just wondering - have YOU found happiness in life? Contentment?
I can't imagine how hard that must have been, but it would be nice to
know that someone as oppressed as you has found some modicum of peace.
Somehow, the story of your fulfillment would prove a nice parable to DM's
paranoid, sheltered, and dictatorial life.
Take care
Joni

Well, you are in a very select group, on a.r.s. or anywhere.
Keep up the good work!

Well, unless Jesus Christ looked like a rather gnarly rock singer
with a pony tail, the comparison is misplaced... *grin*

The article, I imagine, is the one in American Lawyer.
For that article, by the way, the cult of greed (R) was given a
$50,000 liquidated damages award by Marin Co. Superior Court Judge
Gary W. Thomas in January, 1995.
The cult, since at its core it must insist there is no Christ, chooses
to compare me in its black PR to one of its own church celebrities:
[Quote]
"Armstrong, who looks like a cross between Charles Manson and a
throwback to the Haight-Ashbury days of acid trips and "let it all
hang out," is clearly on excellent terms with CAN's leadership."
[End Quote]
(Black PR publication "Membership News")
But JC didn't, in any of the photos I've seen, ever have his hair in a
pony tail. It's my disguise too.
The American Lawyer article has a big photo of Ford Greene and me
outside his law office. My hair was down but 5 years shorter then.
Thank you Joni.

For my talking to, I think it was, Bill Thorn, American Lawyer writer,
about my "religious experiences."
It's one of the six causes of action for which the cult was awarded
$300,000.00. Plus costs of $330,000+. It's mentioned in my appellant's
opening brief in my pending appeal. I don't know if there's a URL for
the AOB.

I have two references to American Lawyer articles:
"Making Law, Making Enemies" Frankel, Alison. American Lawyer,
March 1996.
"Two Faces of Scientology, the." Horne, William. American Lawyer,
July, 1992. (The next two issues after this had many letters from CoS
lawyers, including Helena Kobrin, Eric Lieberman, and Earle Cooley,
of course.)
URL: http://www2.theCIA.net/users/rnewman/scientology/media/amlawyer-7.92
Was it one of these? Is it Horne or Thorn? Is the first article up
on the web anywhere in any of the media archives? Has AL run any
other stories on Scientology?

Actually the way Scientology would have it, and the way it often turns
out, is that slavery goes to the highest bidder. It is really not
justice which is for sale in American, it is injustice.
But slavery and injustice are really not desirable commodities in
which to be investing, so the Scientology leaders actually and
certainly ultimately will be recognized as really stupid.

Sorry, it's Bill Horne.
Also Am Lawyer did an article called "Scientology's War on Judges."
Issue indicated is December, 1980.

He won't get it. He is from a "safe third country". Maybe Austria?
