letter to Committee Chair William Jackson Esq.
-- enclosing
GS' January 25, 1989 attorney disciplinary complaint vs.
Charles Brieant -- "10a. Notwithstanding the
above, I desire that Judge Murphy's executive secretary,
Charles Brieant, Esq., be given a fundamentally fair
hearing, under fundamentally fair procedures -- nothing
less."
b. I have been 'honored' by
serving and receiving every
battle star-awarded for my participation in the European
Theater of Operations in World War II; believe myself
'honored' by every trialess incarceration; and clearly was
'honored' by my disbarment.
c. I will never surrender my
fundamental right to be honest, nor my obligation to defend
the Constitution and my clients, with 'zeal', and will never
involve myself in judicial corruption, and never did in
almost forty (40) years at the bar.
d. The
response was 'nuts' at Bastogne, Belgium in December of
1944, and it is 'nuts' today when demands are made for my
silent submission."
"Surrender?
