Kelley Lynch's Complaint to FTC - Unlawful Debt Collection - Re: LA Superior Court, Leonard Cohen Family Trust & Robert Kory, Trustee

Yes
What happened?
In or around August 2005, Leonard Cohen (now deceased) filed an entirely fraudulent lawsuit against me with Los Angeles Superior Court, Case No. BC338322. I was not served, this resulted in a fraudulent default judgment, and the original judgment amount totaled $5 million in fraudulent damages and over $2 million in fraudulent financial interest. The court never obtained jurisdiction over me or the numerous corporations (most have been suspended for years) inserted into the default judgment. In any event, in or around 2013, after discovering the complaint online, I filed a motion to vacate the fraudulent default. The court, which refused to hear witnesses, wasn't convinced I wasn't served although it was a substituted proof of service, no Jane Doe roommate existed, and six declarations were ultimately submitted to the court supporting that fact. In or around 2015, I filed a motion for terminating sanctions asking the Court to refer Cohen and his lawyers, Robert Kory & Michelle Rice, to the DA for perjury prosecutions and the State Bar for disciplinary action. The court argued, although this is blatantly untrue, that I filed a motion to reconsider. The fraud judgment was renewed a number of years ago. I attempted to file a motion with respect to that which was denied. I have been representing myself for years. In or around May 2, 2019, following the death of Leonard Cohen (three years earlier), Robert Kory, as trustee, filed documents to assign the fraud default to the Cohen family trust, a revocable trust for probate purposes. I was again not served and/or notified of entry of this default and must once again file a motion to vacate. These are unlawful debt collection practices and I have been assigned debt I do not owe based upon an entirely fraudulent narrative. The original complaint was transmitted to IRS, used to file/amend Leonard Cohen's personal tax returns and to obtain fraudulent tax refunds that I have now challenged as such with IRS and FTB. I would like to know what FTC proposes at this time as I have now been illegally assigned $11 million in debt that includes nearly $7 million in fraudulent interest. Los Angeles Superior Court has no remedies whatsoever with respect to these Unlawful Debt Collection practices and sees no issues whatsoever with the failure to value corporate property, assets, federal copyrights that the court allegedly transferred to Leonard Cohen with respect to corporations I have a valid and lawful ownership interest in.
What would be a fair resolution to this issue?
I would like the FTC to advise me how to handle
this Unlawful Debt Collection and am asking FTC to contact LA Superior Court
re. their practices and application of fraudulent interest as well. This case
was filed in Los Angeles, California. It seems a bit outlandish for me to ask
an attorney to assist me in filing a RICO suit against this Court for these
practices. Los Angeles Superior Court is the entity that has assigned the
Unlawful Debt and the fraudulent financial interest. For the record, the corporations
at issue herein were not assigned to Leonard Cohen's family trust and clearly
my lawful interest in same could not be assigned. The U.S. Supreme Court has
repeatedly weighed in on California courts' excessive jurisdiction re.
corporations. I was not served and this court has no remedies. Nevertheless,
this is the assignment of an Unlawful Debt and LA Superior Court should explain
to FTC what its remedy is with respect to same. Los Angeles Superior Court 111

Kelley Lynch Email to IRS, FBI & DOJ Re. Robert Kory's New Default Judgment
From: Kelley Lynch
Email addresses and cc recipients redacted
IRS, FBI, and DOJ -
I did a search tonight of LA Superior Court's website for information I need for a litigation matter I am about to file with the U.S. District Court. I just discovered a new "default judgment" was entered against me on May 2, 2019 in LASC Case No. BC338322. This Court is aware that it authorized service by email upon me (a pro se litigant since 2005) in hearings on my motion to vacate and motion for terminating sanctions. In fact, I've forwarded you Kory & Rice, LLP's email service of most of the documents related to those motions and hearings.
I've just spent (and have the receipts) a substantial sum of money to purchase the documents I was not served via LASC's online service. I find this unacceptable and outrageous. Service of process is an ongoing issue in all cases involving Leonard Cohen, Kory & Rice, and me. All filings also are based upon substantial fraud and perjury. I have attempted to address this with Los Angeles Superior Court to no avail.
I was not served the complaint in Los Angeles Superior Court Case No. BC338322 and BC341120. I didn't file a motion to vacate the latter and still have not been provided with numerous documents including the proof of service. It is not my obligation to seek out legal documents and demand service of process. Judge Freeman's court reporter brought the fraud writ of possession case to my attention years after it was filed. LASD unlawfully seized property belonging to me, Stranger Management, corporations, Machat & Machat, Phil Spector, and others. The Court refused to preserve that unlawfully seized evidence. The writ authorizing seizure lists property that was never in my possession. Cohen picked up his property from my management offices and removed all of my personal and business files at that time. I had stored, as a courtesy to Cohen, old boxes of documents. Immediately after we parted ways, Cohen was instructed to make arrangements to pick up his property. After receiving Scott Edelman’s letter, I phoned him, he refused to respond to my calls, LASD showed up, and I phoned Raoul Felder who was confident that the seizure was unlawful. It is my understanding that Kory is attempting to make a deal with respect to Cohen's body of work. I have notified the University of Toronto that I intend to litigate issues related to these matters and property owned by me and/or the corporations at issue. Furthermore, Cohen's attorneys were well aware that I intended to send the corporate evidence to IRS Commissioner's Staff in Washington when they filed the writ. I have approached an attorney with respect to these and other matters.
The motion for terminating sanctions was the subject of an appeal. I have provided IRS, FBI, and DOJ with copies of everything I have filed to date with this Court. I would like IRS to review the appellate decisions, the issues related to damages, interest, and the lack of valuations of the corporations, corporate property (including federal copyrights owned by Blue Mist Touring Company, Inc.), and so forth. Los Angeles Superior Court failed to obtain jurisdiction over me and/or the corporations. These are unlawful debt collection practices that involve fraudulent expense ledgers (in support of the original default), fraudulent financial interest, fraudulent damages, and so forth. I have asked IRS, FBI, and DOJ to investigate all of this. That would include, but is not limited to, all fraudulent protection orders issued to Leonard Cohen. I was not served and/or notified of the "domestic relations" order in Case No. BQ033717. Leonard Cohen and I were never in a "dating relationship" and sexual harassment and sexual assault are not "dating" as I explained to Judge Perluss. City Attorney Mike Feuer's wife sat on the appellate panel related to the Motion for Terminating Sanctions and Motion to Vacate the domestic relations order. This is clearly a conflict of interest.
I am attaching hereto a copy of the 19 documents I was just forced to purchase. Please review same and do review with great care the Declaration of Reeve Chudd. At the time Cohen and I parted ways, these entities (apart from LC Investments, LLC which owned no assets) were not assigned to any trust. The entities I am referring to are Blue Mist Touring Company, Inc., Old Ideas, LLC, and Traditional Holdings, LLC.
I would like to confirm that as of today, even after I have spoken to the IRS Criminal Division regarding these issues, I still am not in receipt of the federal tax information I have requested for over a decade now. That would include, but is not limited to, a 1099 for the year 2004 (earned income), K-1s for 2004, 2005, and 2006 (pro rated portion through entry of default in May 2006), and/or copies of all corporate returns filed for these entities that I had (and should have) a lawful ownership interest in. I have challenged Leonard Cohen's use of the fraudulent complaint (LA Superior Court Case No. BC338322) to file his personal returns, amend others, and obtain fraudulent tax refunds.
I would also like to note that Kory & Rice's operative, Stephen Gianelli, continues to harass and cyber-stalk me. This has now gone on since the winter/spring of 2009 and has been well documented for IRS, FBI, and DOJ together with all lies he's transmitted to federal authorities and others. I have also documented his obsession with me, IRS and federal tax matters, and Phil Spector.
I now intend, once again, to file a motion to vacate the latest default judgment. It is never ending with this Court and Kory & Rice, from my point of view, should be investigated for their roles and new roles as trustee and legal adviser to the trustee.
