How the US Supreme Court forbids me from filing petitions with the court

Now finally it is the turn of the highest court, the Supreme Court of the United States, to show the true face of “American justice” – it used the same kind of unlawful and fraudulent means like that employed by the lower courts to deny my access to court by faking facts and law to refuse to file my petition.

On September 17, 2007, I sent a Petition for a writ of certiorari and motion to proceed in forma pauperis to the US Supreme Court (SCT). The court refused to file my petition and returned it to me on grounds “The petition is out-of-time.” The letter from the Clerk faked a “fact” that my petition was received by the Clerk’s Office on September 25, 2007, and reasoned that “the petition was due on or before September 23, 2007”.

1. My petition was received by the Clerk’s office of SCT on September 24, 2007, not on September 25, 2007. This is confirmed by Xpresspost USA of Canada Post that delivered the package for me.
2. By Rules of the Supreme Court, the last day of the 90 calendar days for me to file the petition was September 23, however, that was a Sunday. Then the deadline was the next Monday, which was September 24, 2007. This is because the Rule 30 of the Supreme Court stipulates:

“1. In the computation of any period of time prescribed or allowed by these Rules, by order of the Court, or by an applicable statute, the day of the act, event, or default from which the designated period begins to run is not included. The last day of the period shall be included, unless it is a Saturday, Sunday, federal legal holiday listed in 5 U. S. C. § 6103, or day on which the Court building is closed by order of the Court or the Chief Justice, in which event the period shall extend until the end of the next day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, federal legal holiday, or day on which the Court building is closed.”

So the last day of this 90 day period shall be September 24, not September 23, and my petition arrived on time.

3. My petition was timely filed also because it was deposited in express mail, postage prepaid, and bears a postmark, showing that the document was mailed on September 18, 2007, which was before the last day of filing - September 24, 2007. By Rule 29 of the SCT, as long as a document is sent to the Clerk by first-class mail (including express or priority mail), postage prepaid, and bears a postmark, other than a commercial postage meter label, showing that the document was mailed on or before the last day for filing.

On October 12, 2007, I sent a letter to the clerk to clarify these facts. I sent the same letter again on October 19, 2007. Since there was no response to my letters, I called the clerk, Gail Johnson twice but all my messages were never returned. I re-sent my petition with a declaration of mailing to the SCT, but on November 27, it was returned to me again “for the reasons stated in prior correspondence from this office”.

Apparently, the issues that I presented in my petition are so significant in revealing the racist nature of the “justice” in US towards racial minorities, the Supreme Court of US prefers to hid its endorsement of all the injustice in this case, even by such shameful ways. This American justice system and this American government, from the very top to bottom, have no sense of decency in oppressing racial minorities by any means possible. When it comes to deal with racial minorities who are in conflict with the individual Whites, particularly those minorities who do not belong to a politically powerful group, even the highest court of US does not play by rules, and can do anything most indecent and despicable for their “white justice”.

2. Boy, you must be REALLY important!
The Canadian government, the US Supreme Court, the UN, the American media, the University of Toronto, and the US Congress are ALL conspiring against you!

I guess that's the vast Right/Left/Center Wing Conspiracy in action?

7. It's not the entire human race,
but the most powerful one, the White race that is in control of this world.

10. As long as my petition was sent within the time allowed by law,
why should I be blamed? It is unreasonable to expect me, who is a lay person and have no money to hire a lawyer, to do better than what the law requires.

12. Yes, I noticed
you described yourself as "Extremely Indigent" in there somewhere, but also mentioned the professor was interfering with your PhD pursuit.

Did I understand that correctly? You're impoverished but a PhD candidate in Canada? And you have no money for a lawyer. Who, then, is paying for the considerably expensive education you are receiving in Canada?

13. Did you mean a Ph.D candidate must be rich?
I wasn't rich when I applied for Ph.D programs from U of T. I only had student loan, and p/t worked. Now in a complete poverty because of all these persecution, including the criminal prosecution on me.

11. Besides, I didn't blame the whole White race
I'm blaming the so called "justice system" and the government, that are racist in nature. This can be seen from my story. This is a big bully. If the same thing hasn't happened to other people, like the Black people, it's only because the great Black people are a very powerful group and fight damn hard for their rights. If they don't fight hard like that, they would end up like me! You go, Black people!

6. You've brought your complaint to the right place ...
now, how may we help you?

After all, many of us have received an undeserved low grade in a college class. I know I have.

And, it's a lull between primaries.

I gotta warn you though: the last time we took up arms against Toronto, I think the place was called Fort York or something like that. That incident turned out badly for all concerned.

8. Thank you so much for suggesting help!
So after all, there are still some people that are really concerned about civil rights for all! Just knowing that is a great comfort. And of course what I need most is to get this matter known to people. All of this is happening, because it's been done all behind closed doors and no one knows. Any kind of help is greatly appreciated!
