Jim Hall Loses 3rd Court Hearing, in Attempt for State Rep. Race, after Hot Check “Sealed”
November 7th, 2016 by
Special Judge Russell Rogers, of Stuttgart, was the latest special judge called to hear the ongoing series of lawsuits by disqualified State Representative candidate Jim Hall, Monday morning.
There were 3 cases reportedly set for hearings, but the State Supreme Court ruled one of them without color (merit).
When today’s case was filed, last week, special judges David Laser and Mark Hewitt were listed as defendants. Hall today dropped the 2 judges from the list, since they were not served.
Hall then moved to disqualify Ashley County attorney Tim Leonard, since he had represented Hall in 2013.
Hall next asked to disqualify Drew County attorney Cliff Gibson, since his firm had represented Hall’s ex-wife, during their divorce. Both attempts failed.
As Judge Rogers was in the process of dismissing Hall’s case, Hall explained that he had been taught by a retired Oklahoma judge, how to make “corrupt” judges recuse themselves, leading him to sue all 5 circuit judges, and the last 2 special judges.
Hall then described how the attorneys involved in his last case have publicized his recently sealed Faulkner County hot check case, to the point where his credibility is ruined, statewide.
Hall told the judge, “You are not a voter in southeast Arkansas; you should let the people decide who represents them.”
Judge Rogers told Hall that he can’t rehear a ruling on a case, where 2 judges have already ruled.
The judge continued, telling Hall that his remedy (solution) was to appeal, but his appeal had shortcomings that did not convince the higher court to overturn the case.
Mr. Hall then described his conspiracy beliefs to the court, which drew objections from Gibson, which were sustained by the judge.
“You can’t get a new judge every time you don’t like what the current judge rules.” – Judge Russell Rogers.
Cliff Gibson reminded the court of his letter to Hall last week, explaining the financial liability of filing frivolous lawsuits.
As the hearing was coming to a close, Hall asked the judge if he could still ask for a motion for withdrawal of the case, which was approved, but as attorney Cliff Gibson pointed out, “that usually happens before jeopardy is attached.”
As the closing of the hearing drew near, Judge Rogers summed it up by telling Hall, “You can’t keep beating the same dead horse over and over again.”
