I believe that Mr. James’ departure
from the JCOPE/LEC Review Commission – as to which there was
no public announcement or explanation prior to the October
14, 2015 hearing, at the October 14, 2015 hearing, or
thereafter – including in its
November 1, 2015 report (which conceals who the members
are and who the chair is, including, on its last two
appendix pages) – was the result of my
June 18, 2015 letter to the JCOPE/LEC Review Commission
members. The letter identified CJA’s then two complaints to
JCOPE,

"Ensuring Honest Review by the
JCOPE/LEC Review Commission:
(1) Your Methodology for Reviewing
and Evaluating the Joint Commission on Public Ethics & Legislative Ethics
Commission -- Including Public Hearings; (2) Your Protocol with Respect to
Conflicts of Interest"
The annotating footnote 4 -- here

“On October 17,
2013, I sent an e-mail directly to the members and special
advisors of the Commission to Investigate Public Corruption,
attaching a letter pertaining to my September 17, 2013
testimony. Identifying that I had no e-mail address
for Commissioner James, among others, the transmitting
e-mail requested that they forward it to him ‘so that all
may be held accountable to the People whose trust in New
York’s government and its public officials the Commission is
supposed to restore.’
The e-mail and its
transmitted letter are enclosed herewith, as well as
posted, with this letter, on CJA’s website, infra,
together with my
September 17, 2013 written statement and the video of my
September 17, 2013 oral testimony.”
