- It is what it is!
Poor Tribal Court. It don’t get no respect. Ain’t got no authority. Ain’t got no way to enforce Sockeeeebasen’s rambling rulings.
So……if the court is real, why can’t it hear real cases ? Even real “ civil “ cases? Right. No authority or enforcement powers. But Sockbasen and all the greedy lawyers continue the charade. Sockbasen has presided over the Court of No Resort that is incapable of resolving tribal problems but spent millions on lawyers laughing at us and getting rich. After 3 ½ years of this foolishness the Judiciary Committee suddenly said they wanted authority over the court spending. They’re a little late with the guilt complex. And Harold Tobey at the helm no less. God, can you imagine?
Suddenly the court will publish the rulings in a law review. Who the hell cares? The decisions don’t amount to anything. Why not publish them in the Cape Cod Times, the Boston Globe, the Mashpee Enterprise, Playboy or run it on Comedy Central ? The state and county courts publish legal records in major newspapers. Cause the Tribal Court is a facade,a fake and a fraud.
And all that business of keeping the Indian Child Welfare Act records being sealed….well it’s all handled in state or county court anyway so what’s that mean ? It means if you want real justice you “ takeittohigha !
Tah Tah has filed in a Barnstable Court, Autum Banks has filed in federal court, and Cedric and his PR flack are trying to pretend he’s running a real government when it’s too late. He knows more lawsuits are on the way.
Holding Court in the Cape Cod Times is not effective, but it’s all he’s got. Course the Court of No Resort tells the CCT Nellie filed the 2009 election challenge 3 years too late. The Mashpee Enterprise and the Mittark have the documented proof of the contrary. Nellie filed the complaint with Patricia Keliinui and Mark Tilden right after the February 8, 2009 election. Course the whole controversy is over the Cromwell’s failure to produce the election sign in sheets. Maintaining records of anything just ain’t their thing. So you see the problem. No record of the letter to Patricia ” I got this” Keliinui. We do know she resigned very shortly after she failed to follow the election ordinance and have the Elders resolve the dispute.
Try to get records of court hearings, council meetings, anything. Oh by the way the Tribal Court ” can’t compel ” the Council to produce anything, according to Patty and Nellie. At least that’s what they said Judge Robert Mills said. Maybe we can play the tape of that little courtroom dialogue.
Just kidding.
