Drake dumps lawyer Taitz in suit challenging Obama birthplace

But the attorney says he can't fire her because she's kicked him off the case.

Orly Taitz, the Mission Viejo lawyer trying to get Barack Obama thrown out of office, says she's had enough of two of her clients in the case and will continue without them.
Whoa, say the two.

"This is our case," said Buena Park Pastor Wiley Drake, one of the two plaintiffs Taitz has unilaterally tried to have removed from the case.

The lawsuit challenges Obama's birthplace and his legitimacy as president. The latest chapter in the drama started when Drake and Markham G. Robinson notified Taitz that they were replacing her as counsel. Taitz continues to represent 40 other plaintiffs in the federal case filed in Santa Ana.

Drake complained that Taitz's paperwork errors have delayed proceedings.

1. It's only a matter of time before Taitz is disbarred.

I've seen crazy among attorneys before. But this kind of crazy is rabid.

9. Hopefully a VERY SHORT time. n/t

13. There is a disbarment proceeding pending before Calif. bar

2. But HOW did she become an attorney? In most states, it's a pretty

tough bar exam. How did she do it? Maybe there are magical powers in "the stupid".

3. Oily Taint...

:wtf:

:rofl:

[Adelante]

4. That fucking Drake prays to God for the President's death

:puke:

5. Name of the guy replacing her is very fitting....Gary Kreep

6. I'm still waiting for Major Stefan Cook to file suit against Taitz for.....

incompetence lawyering, legal malpractice, or whatever the proper term might be. I think he has a strong case.

[Gman]

8. One big, big problem for Cook

he can win, but you can't get blood out of a rock. She doesn't have "deep pockets" and, as soon as trouble hits, her big donors are gone.

12. Can Cook get some free dental work?

Cook has a great lawsuit against Taitz. Maybe he can get some free dental work in settlment

[Brother Buzz]

14. You'd think as the new owner of the two Taitz dental clinic buildings....

he could get all the free dental work he needed. You know what I mean, Vern?

[jmowreader]

15. I wouldn't want any dental work from Orly Taitz, even if it was free

I'd get in the chair and the first thing she'd ask me was, "is it safe?"

7. You would think the Cookie Crisp proofs of purchases she sent in for her law degree...

would have stated that as a lawyer, you can't fire your client!

[Sanity Claws]

10. She can't kick him off the case

She can remove herself as his counsel but she can't dismiss him as a plaintiff from his lawsuit. I think people really should investigate her bar status. She is clueless about civil procedure and legal ethics.

[Gothmog]

11. There is an investigation to disbar Taitz pending

16. Who are those 40 dumbasses that Taitz has as plaintiffs?

Drake complained that Taitz's paperwork errors have delayed proceedings.

It is called incompetence where I come from!

[DCKit]

17. Without Orly, Sarah Palin and the TeaBirthers, we might as well be living in North Korea.

Credit where credit is due folks. At least there's the entertainment value.

18. what a hate-filled nut

to place so much effort into something that will go no where. Yet the purpose is transparent.... to marginalize a sitting President, adding more paranoia and hatred of a President.
