When the state bar tried to discipline me for saying Larry is "incompetent and corrupt", the state bar could not prove at my trial that Larry isn't "corrupt and incompetent. Further, Larry demonstrably committed perjury in that trial. Larry is the Supervising Judge of all the civil courts in the LASC, since the LASC has such low standards.

The judicial officers at Stanley Most are involved in organized crime. We can take them down on a RICO CHARGE. We just have to band together. I know it's hard. They take advantage of the our personal pain. THIS IS ORGANIZED CRIME! WE HAVE TO STOPPED THEM. A YOUNG MAN COMMITTED SUICED BECAUSE OF THESE JUDGED. Please email me DoYouSeeMe2019@gmail.com I don't check the email daily so if I am delayed in responded please don't think I am ignoring you. This is what I am dedicating the rest of my life to. Google Judge Sarah Heidel is a Racist. If you are white don't be turned off. Racism is a function of lack of values. This judges harm people for many reason. I think they are in bed with specific lawyers. [redacted by Ed.]They are evil. We have TO STOP THE EVIL! IT IS OUR CIVIL DUTY. PLEASE LET BAND TOGETHER.

My son Joseph Olin committed suicide on November 6, 2024 because the Los Angeles County Superior Court Family Court division, specifically Judge Lawrence Riff (Supervising Judge before he was fired from that position), Commissioner Glenda Veasey, and Judge Michael Powell enabled my ex-wife to completely alienate my son from me, "legally" and emotionally. Though I have never ever been even been accused of abusing Joseph in any way, because of the bias of because of the aforementioned judicial officers, my joint custody of Joe was stripped from me and his mom used a bogus DVRO protecting ONLY HER, NOT HIM, to block me from having any contact with Joeseph for the last 6 years. I filed more than one motion to have Joseph's mental health evaluated by a professional and both times my requests were denied. The second denial was by Judge Michael Powell, when he denied to enter into evidence a sworn statement by my ex in which she'd stated she and my son lived in daily fear of me on a sua sponte hearsay motion. I have PTSD and Major Depressive Disorder (Severe) because of what my ex, Riff, Veasey, and Powell did to me. Today, 11/26/24, my ex emailed me to tell me Joseph committed suicide and that she was telling me because the mortuary needed my assent to cremating my beautiful boy. He died 20 days ago and I wasn't told until today. His blood is on their hands. So many families and people have been destroyed by bad judges. I and my son are but two. Jeffrey Jason Olin, Esq.

----113 degrees outside and this judge Lawrence Riff, outrageously ruled to a vulnerable, older, unrepresented female that "loss of property and homelessness, is NOT exigent circumstances of irreparable harm", according to befuddled, inappropriate, Larry Riff as he protected the other highly represented side and documented abuser, just so it seems Riff could be 'loved and adored by them" that's the way he outrageously acted-ignoring facts, case law, and cacourts.gov)- their nepo. attorneys', ghost attorney and their judge connection and colleague of Riff.

Remember when Larry Riff, headed a "Family law in the age of the Internet", 'forum' and euphemism for "they're telling on us-and posting it"-Remember???? Hope that family attorneys who attended did not have to "Find" billing hours, as Trent Lewis was alleged to have improperly said to lawyers, during a Family law dept. "town hall". Remember when Larry Riff outrageously said, "Homelessness and loss of property", were not exigent circumstances of irreparable harm??? I do. When these are the exact examples given on CAcourt.gov site. Remember when Larry Riff believed BS of lying attorneys', bedside substantial evidence to the contrary , in the record???? And, a colleague and creepy lawyer connection, who put him in an awkward position.

53800: *public servant When the nepotism nasty attorney family court troll says that they're "all protected and they protect each other, and they're protected by management"; (Riff used to be "management" -now "former management" in this poorly run department-where they "protect each other" and harm the most vulnerable; when troll makes dumb statements like this; remember former Public servant Trump, was found guilty on all counts in hush money trial.

Key words that Judge Larry Riff, possibly can't even comprehend *"STATE of EMERGENCY, on HOMELESSNESS"-", while many believe Judge Riff can't even comprehend the rule of law, that he is a laughing stalk to many, and can't comprehend the serious damages and risks, his recklessness has placed these vulnerable litigants in, with serious appearances of impropriety and wanting to kiss the a**es of some very abusive, conflicted colleagues' and attorneys', to seek their approval, no matter how egregious and wrong.

During these cold, rain storms, economy, increased crime rates, etc ; remember that it was "Judge" Lawrence Riff who had previously repeated, and outrageously opined, in open court-court papers, to certain vulnerable litigants, that" LOSS of PROPERTY and HOMELESSESS are 'NOT' Bona Fide, circumstances of irreparable harm; while adding to the continued harm against the vulnerable litigant. /// ___ Just think about Victims' of Crimes (including Domestic Violence) and victims' of those who protect the perps- the one's who are supposed to help the victims), and also think of 'Judge' Lawrence Riff, during these cold, rain storms, economy, increased crime rates, etc. said that "HOMELESSESS and LOSS of PROPERTY" are NOT harmful (to a vulnerable litigant) ; remember that it was "Judge" Lawrence Riff who had previously repeated, and outrageously opined, in open court, to certain vulnerable litigants, that" LOSS of PROPERTY and HOMELESSESS are 'NOT' Bona Fide, circumstances of irreparable harm... WTF??? Seriously???Really? /// Makes one wonder what complicit colleagues' and/or attorneys' told 'Judge' Lawrence Riff, to say this ("HOMELESSESS and LOSS of PROPERTY are 'NOT' Bona Fide, circumstances of Irreparable Harm")-said this in court opinion), and wonder what law clerks and other court staff, some other colleagues' are saying about "judge" Lawrence Riff and what they are saying about some very shameful judge/attorney colleagues of Lawrence Riff.

California Penal Code 118 PC describes perjury as knowingly providing false testimony while under oath, which is a felony offense punishable by up to four years in jail. Thankfully, Rosemarie P. Hernandez is really good at her job, as shown by a recently obtained 2nd transcript from a particular date in September 2021.

Liarry (the added "I" is on purpose) Riff is such a narcissist. Liarry recently wrote a letter to a dead judge's wife in which Liarry basically called himself a "hero" for having been a family destruction court judge. Funny thing is that Liarry was too good at destroying families so he got FIRED from being a family destruction court judge by the presiding judge. Liarry, you are no "hero" [Redacted by Ed.].

Sadly he was appointed by the odious Gov Jerry Brown in 2015 and was re-elected in 2022 with no ballot because of the pandemic so he’s on the bench until 2029. Does anyone know how to start a recall?

Outraged by his zero bail reinstatement! Children, women and the most disadvantaged are the ones who will pay the most. This is essentially rewarding criminals. Disgusted beyond words, can only hope his judgment affects him so he understands the depth of this horrible decision.

Judge Riff needs to be removed from the bench. I saw that his term ends in 2023.. Does anyone know when he will up for reelection? It's next year, right? He needs to be removed from the bench. Please, everyone one here.. file your complaints against Judge Riff with the Presiding Judge and CJP. I know you all think it's not worth your time, but it is. I literally want to rent a billboard with his face on it and say something like Recall Judge Lawrence P. Riff. He kidnaps children and robs people of their property and due process under color of law. If any attorney out there wants to go for his seat, I will personally get you the signatures you need to get on the ballot and force Riff on the ballot so he can be voted out.

Re: comment CA39354 Just because someone is a litigant does not mean they cannot be a lawyer. Your nonsensical ramblings are what is most distracting on the RR. Yes it is personal - I just filed a lawsuit in which Larry is one of the defendants. I called Riff's courtroom this morning and confirmed that he was removed as Family Division Supervising Judge circa Thanksgiving 2021. I told his judicial assistant to give him my congratulations on his demotion. Riff is running for reelection this year. Let us thwart him, shall we?

How is it that the presiding judge could enter a final judgment in a divorce case one without even and looking at single evident nor allowing for due process and I hope you guys all are sitting down because this is probably going to go down as one of the most famous case One professor will teach about injustice and abuse of discretionary power and more judge award wife the entire community property state which include five properties ranging from the lowest add 800,000 to the most expensive at 7 million completely to wife stripping husband from everything now here's a punch the mortgage on the properties was pinned on the poor husband So wife not only get to sell the properties in enjoy pure profit because her husband will have to pay all Loans on the properties to make things even worse he topped it off with ruling on stuff that he made a written order in the past that's nothing that was brought up during a domestic violence hearing which no one was awarded is not to be brought up during the final divorce trial do you think he honored that part he did only for one side but for the other side he allowed free range for example a small basic $1200 bill all of a sudden became $25,000 bill without any evidence Honorable Judge not so honorable said you know what why not let's award that as well now let's get to support how about I'm not even going to go there summary the entire ( 100%)community property ? which is roughly net worth after selling everything let's say at a lower price value 8 1/2 million dollars now I understand that honorable judge have power but I ask what is worst living in countries of rules and laws And democracy and and receiving such unrealistic and most definitely unfair and unexplained as well settlement is A very big red light would know what to think I do know that people get disappointed in our system from time to time I also know that you cant walk to court and expect to come out happy all the time it will be downfalls they're not always
