The George Sassower, Esq. Legacy Project --
Was he correct, on
the facts & on the law?
Memorable quotes from his legal papers --
"The office
should compound the misdeed, not immunize it" para. 19
petition, NY Co. #3045-1985
p. 41: "There would be
little need for Judiciary Law 487, or the doctrine
of extrinsic fraud, if an attorney could not deceive
a judge or a court!"
p.43: "the Court had
compromised its soul and was completely 'out of its
jurisdictional orbit'..."
undated fragment: "...this publication to be independently
investigated, and the results of its investigation published. You
should also make copies of this publication, distribute them to your
friends and acquaintances, with the request that they in turn
communicate with the media of their choice, and make further copies
for distribution, since it is their
country, their government,
their judicial system, and
their pocketbook, as well. The
imputation of knowledge concerning judicial corruption and criminal
activities...and the citizen's concomitant responsibilities,
particularly where the state and federal purses are being defrauded,
may not be avoided by the simple expedient of closing one's eyes,
covering one's ears, and holding one's breath. A fundamental and
essential principle of American jurisprudence is that no man, no
matter how exalted his official position or status in life, is above
the criminal and ethical laws of the society. The criminal and
ethical laws bind all men equally the judge, no less than the
judged."
