High Profile Attorney Mitchell J. Stein Was Arrested

.

December 19th, 2011

Mitchell J. Stein was arrested on Sunday, December 18th, 2011.  He was arrested at Los Angeles International Airport — after returning back from a business trip in Ireland.

It is alleged that Mitchell J. Stein was involved in a scheme to artificially inflate the stock price in a company called Heart Tronics Inc… Assistant Attorney General Lanny A. Breuer of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division charged Mitchell J. Stein with one count of conspiracy to commit mail fraud and wire fraud, three counts of mail fraud, three counts of wire fraud, three counts of securities fraud, three counts of money laundering and one count of conspiracy to obstruct justice. If convicted, Stein faces up to 20 years in prison on each count of mail fraud, wire fraud, securities fraud, and conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, as well as up to 10 years in prison on each count of money laundering and up to five years in prison on the conspiracy to obstruct justice count.

Willie Gault, the former NFL wide receiver and Olympic sprinter was accused by U.S. regulators of taking part in a scheme. So now it might be said that Willie Gault could be running for the touchdown of his life now, after you consider that the Feds seem to be chasing behind him trying to tackle him now.  This is because Willie Gault is accused of artificially inflating the stock of the California-based Heart Tronics Company.  It is alleged that Gault repeatedly announced millions of dollars in fake sales orders for its heart-monitoring devices between 2006 and 2008.  The SEC also sued Gault’s co-chief executive officer J. Rowland Perkins, and Stein’s handyman and chauffer Martin B. Carter in the incident.  I know how he feels.  This is because my chauffer is always giving me troubles too. (Tongue-in-cheeck)
.

Martin Andelman from Mandelman Matters responds: Well, I have to say… that’s just off the charts hysterical! And here I’ve been waiting to find out whether Stein was part of the Kramer mass joinder fiasco financially. LMAO. Oh my God, I am cracking up over here. He said he was suing the banks but as it turns out he was robbing them! And I went to the same High School with him. It’s like finding out you went to HS with Chuck Keating. And his wife Tracy too? OMG.

So, what’s the deal on his arrest by Justice?  I think I’ll send him a subscription to American Banker. -LOL”

I contacted Mitchell J. Stein for comment — and to my surprise – Mitchell J. Stein seemed unfazed by the current charges.  He claimed that he anticipated this when filed the lawsuit against the federal government.  I was totally shocked because I think my asshole would have puckered at even facing one of those charges brought against him.  The headlines would have read: My Name Is John Wright And I am Fighting Back — was found sitting in his living room Papa chair with only his clothes and shoes remaining.  It was later determined that Wright was apparently the victim of self-combustion.” - click here   Nevertheless, Mithcell J. Stein was totally unfazed by the current arrest and charges.  (scratching my head)  He said that he was only in jail overnight.  So I guess that means that Mitchell J. Stein must not have been - Too big for bail.

.

Mitchell J. Stein went on to talk about the Heart Tronics device.  He seemed very excited about the outcome of a recent meeting he had.  Stein claimed the United Nations was now “buying the Heart Tronics device”.Press release  (scratching my head)  It was later reported to me that they completely backed out of the deal once they got wind of Stein’s arrest. 

I told Stein that I was very disturbed by the email that I received from someone who claimed that they were a victim.  In response Mitchell J. Stein pointed out that it is pubic record that he was actually the victim in what was called “The Feldman complaint.”  According to Stein — he said that she still owes him 20 million dollars that she had stolen from a trust from him.

The interview with Stein only lasted for about only ten minutes.

.

Stein does bring up valuable questions here though.  Why did the government decide to wait until now to arrest him if the charges stem back to 2008?  Is the answer because Stein recently filed a lawsuit against the federal government regarding the Heart Tronics device? – click here   Let’s also not forget that Stein filed a Civil Rights lawsuit against California Attorney General Kamala D. Harris.

All I have to say is if some potentially washed-up attorney can be considered “The Doberman” — then I am guessing that I could be more appropriately described as “The Pit Bull.” That is when you consider the lockjaw I tend to use on unethical law firms.

What is the difference between the Dobie and the Pit Bull?

Temperament of a Pit Bull:

Now if there was a manual describing ideal Pit Bull temperament, it would probably read something like this: “The Pit Bull is goofily friendly towards people – family, friends, and strangers alike. Known for its sound character, strong nerve, and great intelligence, the breed makes an ideal companion for households with children, while remaining strong and vigilant enough to protect its loved ones if need be. It is never necessary to embark on guard or attack training with this breed, as they are naturally attuned to their environment and intuitive about real threats. Although never aggression towards people without real need, the Pit Bull may show dog-directed aggression, but sensitivity to other dogs will vary from dog to dog. The properly socialized and trained Pit Bull should not be an instigator, yet it is unlikely for the breed to shy away from a challenge.

Today the Pit Bull has evolved into a marvelous working and companion dog, used for purposes as varied as those it originally performed. Pit Bulls are employed as police/armed services dogs, search and rescuers, therapy animals, and livestock workers. They compete in all manner of organized dog sports, from herding to agility to conformation to obedience and the bite sports like Schutzhund and French Ring. They make loving pets for children and seniors, and everyone in between. They are indeed one of the most versatile breeds on the planet. Much of this is owed to the activities it once performed. The harshness and physical demands of the activities molded a strong, healthy, stable animal, one anyone should be proud to own.

They are known for their intelligence and loyalty. American Pit Bull Terriers make excellent, loving and protective companions despite the unfair press they receive. - source

Here are some solutions for your Doberman if you have this problem:

Spay/Neuter your Doberman

This helps prevent surprises and overpopulation. If done early enough, it also helps prevent the emergence of dominance or aggression based behavior problems (if the behaviors have already emerged then training will be needed to correct them). Make sure that you have set and are consistently enforcing the household rules. Establish yourself as the pack leader (tips here) so that he will follow your commands. Make sure your dog knows the “Leave It Command.” Any time he starts the behavior or appears to be thinking of doing it, instruct him to Leave It. Use a firm tone. If he ignores your commands, try using a water bottle to squirt him with whenever he starts the humping.

For the record, Mitchell J. Stein always used to like to refer to himself to me as “Yoda” when we used to discuss his strategies regarding the Honda and Bank of America lawsuit.  But this time Mitchell J. Stein might have finally pissed off both the State and Federal Government to biblical proportions.   This is because the Federal Government has apparenty decided to “fight back” Mr. Stein.

.

In the end — the government might be saying to Mitchell J. Stein: “We are the United States Government!  We won World War I and World War II!  Now who the hell are you?”.

Stein’s trial will start on October 1st, 2012 in a Florida courtroom.

Brookstone Law PC Wins Court Decision Against Mitchell J. Stein

.

March 22, 2012

Superior Court Judge Calls $1 Billion Lawsuit “Crackpot” Before Dismissal
Newport Beach, CA (PRWEB) March 26, 2012

A Los Angeles Superior Court Judge has ruled in favor of Brookstone Law PC and all other defendants in a significant court decision against embattled attorney Mitchel J. Stein by dismissing Stein’s $1 billion lawsuit against Brookstone and ordering Stein and other plaintiffs to pay all legal costs.

The case is Legaspi v. Spivak Case BC469228 State of California, County and City of Los Angeles, California.

According to court documents (Legaspi v. Spivak Case BC469228 transcript by Elsa Banda Lara, CSR #3226 Los Angeles Superior Court Department No. 307 Los Angeles, California) during the hearing on the defendants’ motions to dismiss, the Judge referred to the lawsuit as “crackpot” and according to court documents in his written ruling, stated: “The Complaint . . . is one of the most addled pieces of legal drafting which this Court has ever seen in over 40 years of legal practice and judicial service.”

Stein and his partner Erikson Davis had sued Brookstone Law, SML LLP (which represents Brookstone in various matters) and others for $1 billion, allegedly on behalf of clients of Brookstone Law and other Stein clients. The suit claimed that Brookstone had committed fraud and used Stein’s dog logo without permission.

According to court documents, even before the Court dismissed Stein’s lawsuit, the named plaintiff and other plaintiffs withdrew from the action and terminated Stein and Davis as their counsel. Numerous plaintiffs testified on behalf of Brookstone that they had never authorized the filing of the lawsuit or the use of declarations against Brookstone and the other defendants.

Court documents indicate that Brookstone and the other defendants showed that the case really was about Stein’s retaliation for the filing of a motion against Stein by SML LLP, Brookstone’s filings relating to that motion and Stein’s pique about Brookstone’s and SML LLP’s cooperation with the California Attorney General’s and California State Bar’s investigation into alleged illegal sales of mass joinder lawsuits to consumers. As a result of the investigations, law firms run by Phillip Kramer and Stein were raided, those firms’ records were seized, and their practices were taken over by the State of California.

According to court documents, Stein and lawyers working with him filed a total of six actions against the State of California, County and City of Los Angeles, California Attorney General, California State Bar and others, including Legaspi v. Spivak (Case BC469228) against Brookstone, SML LLP and the two firms’ partners. According to court documents, the lawsuits alleged civil rights violations, fraud and other torts in an alleged campaign to damage Stein and his clients. All of the actions were promptly dismissed.

By order of the California Superior Court, the California State Bar seized Stein’s legal practice.

According to court documents, in dismissing all causes of action against Brookstone and all other defendants, highly regarded California Superior Court Judge William F. Highberger found that:

  • Stein and Davis failed to obtain authorization for the inclusion of all plaintiffs in this action;
  • Stein and Davis brought claims without factual and/or legal support;
  • Stein’s and Davis’ pleadings and advocacy were for an improper purpose;
  • Stein’s and Davis’ claims were “frivolous” in that they were both (A) totally and completely without merit and (B) for the sole purpose of harassing Defendants and causing unnecessary expense.

According to court documents, on its own motion, the Court intended to impose legal costs and fees as a sanction on Stein and Davis. However, they refused to accept the sanction, forcing the Court to instead impose the obligation to pay legal costs on the individual plaintiffs. Brookstone and SML LLP then proposed that any plaintiff who promptly signed a sworn affidavit that he or she had never authorized the lawsuit or participated in the lawsuit would not have to participate in paying the legal costs. The Court accepted the approach. Davis is required to distribute the affidavits to the individuals he and Stein named as plaintiffs in the lawsuit.

According to court documents, the Court specifically cited Brookstone’s observation that Stein’s “narcissistic damages theory irreparably fails to alleged cause-in-fact or proximate cause.” In the lawsuit, Stein had claimed that he alone could win against banks and that Brookstone and SML LLP were “make believe and pretend lawyers.”

“We are extremely pleased that this decision exonerates Brookstone Law PC from the outrageous claims made by Mr. Stein, and we look forward to continuing to provide effective and expert legal help to homeowners facing foreclosures who need help dealing with banks,” said Vito Torchia, Jr., managing attorney of Brookstone Law, PC. “Thanks to expert legal work and dedication to the truth, we have turned someone formerly known by the nickname “The Doberman” into a defeated puppy.”

You Just Started Working For

The Twilight Zone!

Written by John Wright

March 5th, 2012

Many of you have been asking me if I know of any details about Mitchell J. Stein. Well, the last I heard, Mitchell J. Stein had received the death penalty for being part of some kind of alleged unethical mailer scheme. I am kidding!

Listen, the last I heard about this cat was that he got his trial for the alleged stock pump and dump scheme moved from March 5th to another date. Even that is unconfirmed though, because I do not talk to the man anymore. I also do not talk to anyone from his office anymore. This includes Toby Butterworthless and his girlfriend Rosie. Quite frankly, I was not comfortable anymore with the way things were being run there, which is why I ran back to safety to Brookstone Law with my tail between my legs, because I wanted to get as far away from that law firm as I possibly could. Toby’s last name is actually “Butterworth” and not “Butterworthless,” but I just always felt my name for him better explained what I felt about him. (smirk)

For the record, I have officially left any law firm representing me that Mitchell J. Stein was affiliated with. One of the reasons was because I started getting a lot of your complaints about how Toby Butterworthless never returned your phone calls or emails, which I was not surprised, because he never returned my phone calls or emails either. I remember that I did not like this, because I am used to getting the star treatment when I am at Brookstone Law. I mean, they really know how to treat me there. That is why I am super duper happy at Brookstone Law. No — that does not mean they are paying me. (lol) Trust me, they are way too cheap for that. (lol) (kidding) I don’t know, they just treat me right. For example, they tend to do everything they say they are going to do, which is more than I can say about the other law firm that Toby Butterworthless was at. Case in point –how many times has the law firm Toby works for told you that they were going to file a lawsuit in New York? I rest my case. Plus the people at Brookstone Law seemed to be smarter about how to treat me. For example, you would think Mr. Butterworthless would have been smart enough to make sure that I was the one that he would write back or call back. This is especially after considering that I am the leading protester against the banks. I am also considered the media. My name is dah – dah. He might need to put that damn credit card machine down long enough to answer some emails. (Tongue-in-cheek) Whoever said he was a genius? Certainly not me! (lol) I heard he is just a wanna be attorney, because it has been alleged that he has the bad habit of giving legal advice to clients when he should not be. I have heard a lot of things from those of you who sent me your complaints. For example, many of you shared with me that you felt Mr. Butterworthless only called you or returned your emails, if there was money to be made, or if he needed you for a declaration for some other lawsuit that you knew nothing about. In other words, you felt that he might be trying to exploit you at all times, which many of you shared how disappointed with him you were. My first real disappointment with Toby Butterworthless started the minute I was with Mitchell J. Stein. This is because one time I called him to inform him that Mitchell J. Stein said that he would represent a disabled person I knew for pro bono, and Mr. Butterworthless said that I should never listen to Mitchell J. Stein, because he said that he was going to charge them anyway. That is when I began to wonder if Mr. Butterworthless and his girlfriend “Rosie” were some kind of gypsies that move around with their credit card machine from law firm to law firm. I thought he was a professional credit card swiper or number puncher, before I heard he was the office manager, which might have explained a lot.

All the above is is why it would be a cold day in hell before I would ever go to another law firm that Toby Butterworthless was the office manager of. I say this because I have read he is now the manager of Spire Law Firm, which it was recently featured in a story on Steve Rhode’s Get-Out-Of-Debt-Guy blog, where he posted the client attorney agreement that a tipster gave him from Spire. The attorney client agreement was hideous, but personally, I will never go to any law firm that has a picture of Mr. Butterworthless in a suit. (lol) The craziest complaint that I received was from someone who sent me an email from Butterworthless that threatened him with both “Known and Unknown” consequences if the continued to ask for a refund. Ummmm – I think I would have said “Fuck You!” Who threatens a client like that?

Listen, I am sure that someone loves them – it is just not me – because after the things I have heard about clients who have dealt with Mr. Butterworthless – I am not amused. I am just not a big Toby Butterworthless fan, and Stein knows this, because I had told him several times about the complaints that would come into my email. Too many people were telling me that they felt this guy was all about the money. Now, I don’t know that Stein is like that – but that is what I have heard about Toby Butterworthless from the people who write me. If it was just one or two people — I would think it was isolated. However, too many people said the same thing. Oh well, who cares what I think anyway, right Mr. Butterworthless? - click here

Now, as far as Mitchell J. Stein, well, I don’t talk too much about him. This is because he did get my cars out from being repossessed from my driving school that I used to own, even if he did not do 99% of what he said he was going to do for me. I always just tried to remember the 1% he did do, which was get all my cars out. That was when we were still during the honeymoon stage though. But I liked Mitchell though. He was just a complicated man to know, so I accepted him for the way he was. That is why I was drinking the Kool-Aid for so long, because I have always liked Kool-Aid, but ultimately, it was because I thought Mitchell J. Stein was one of the most entertaining people I had ever met in my life. For example, the thing I liked about Mitchell was that he had a great sense of humor, which is why I could tolerate all the other stuff I did not like, such as I tended to catch him in lies a lot. I remember Mitchell said that his friends don’t consider it lying though (lol), which of course made me laugh my ass off again — and I was off being in love again. (lol) (joking) I mean, I don’t want a picture of the man in his muscle shirt or anything (tongue-in-cheek), but I just thought he was funny. That is until there was a sitaution that made it to where I was not laughing anymore. You see, the only problem that I tried to get over, but could not, no matter how hard I tried — was that Mitch did not pay my little 23 year old cousin for the month that he worked for him. My cousin was going to work for Brookstone Law, but Mitchell talked him out of it, while promising him that he would make more money working for him. Well, he fucked this kids life up really good. This is because he did not pay him a dime. It was really cruel. I felt bad for the kid too, because it was always his dream to move to California after he finished college, as I can even still remember what his little 10 year old voice sounded like when he said to me “One day! I am going to finish college and move from Tucson to California to be with you Cousin John!” Nearly 13 years later he did just that. He sold his truck for $5,000 and moved down where Stein’s office is. I remember that day too, because my cousin had a smile on his face and a twinkle of optimism in his eyes that day, but we both could not have known that his dreams would soon be turned into a living nightmare. This is because he would be left with absolutely nothing when he left, if not even his dignity. I remember him saying that something did not feel right with Toby Butterworthless and Rosie working there though. He could not seem to put his finger on it, but I remember him saying it felt like they were something out of the Twilight Zone. Listen, I am just telling you what he said. (lol) I guess we now know that the strange feeling that my cousin must have been feeling — was that nobody was going to pay him. I just wish someone would have sent a mailer out about that, instead of the other unethical mailers, becasue they were raided day two of my cousins employment. Well, you know what they say, which is that first impressions are everything. My poor cousin had his laptop taken away, but Stein never got him a new one, but only made a bunch of false promises instead. It was terribly cruel. It was a hard lesson for a youngman. All the poor kid had was a dog at his appartment. No bed, no tv, no food, no furniture – and no friends. I lived six hours away. Can you imagine? The poor kid tried to stick it out with whatever faith he had left – but in this case – it would end up blind faith, because he would end up a victim instead. The poor kid had spent all his money on the apartment, just so he could work for Stein. He would end up losing it all. Needless to say, my cousin hates Stein’s guts.

Anyway, my cousin said the people who worked there all acted strange, and as if there was something they all knew about Mitchell that he did not, as if Mitchell was like this little boy in the movie Twilight Zone and the family were the employees.

This was what my cousin explained his first day at work like:

.

Please don’t get mad and wish me into cartoonland Mitchell! (lol)

It was really sad though, because I have not seen my cousin cry that hard since he was a little boy – after he realized that he had just become a victim working there for free. I just stood their helpless when he did, because I was helpless to help him because of my situation. I watched his eyes fill up with tears and fear when he realized he had just lost everything he had believing in Mitchell J. Stein. For my part, I reminded myself of my mother, because I was like my mother now, who allowed her child to be abused while making excuses for the abuser. This is becasue many in my inner circle would accuse me of having some sort of metaphoric battered wife syndrome when it came to Mitch. I am guilty. I allowed my child to get hurt. Either way, I am sure that Mitchell J. Stein is a name that my cousin will never forget for the rest of his life. I am sure it is a name that none of us will forget. May God forgive me for allowing my child to be beat. I will live with that for the rest of my life.

Yet, the weird thing is that there is a always a part of me that feels sorry for Mitchell J. Stein. Because, like they use to say about President Nixon, I just always wondered how great of a man he might have been if someone would have just loved him when he was a kid. That is why I will continue to pray for him.

For the record, I will be offering no further comment on Mitchell J. Stein or Toby Butterworthless in the future on my blog. – End of story.

Yes – for my part – I will choose to always remember the 1%.  That is unless I hear otherwise.

In the end, my cousin returned back to Tucson never talking to me again.

.

Good day Mr. Stein.

Ding Dong The Mitch Is Dead?

.

Written by John Wright.

March 16th, 2012

“The Complaint challenged by this motion is one of the most addled pieces of legal drafting this Court has ever seen in 40 years of legal practice and judicial service.”

Those were the words of the Honorable Judge Highberger in a Los Angeles Superior Court on February 15th, 2012, after he reviewed the Legaspi vs. Spivak lawsuit that had been drafted by Attorney Erikison Davis and Mitchell J. Stein. The lawsuit had alleged that Kenin Spivak, Edwin Lasman, Theodore Maloney, SML LLP., Brookstone Law – Vito Torchia and Damian Kutzner of Brookstone Law – - were knowingly, willfully and intentionally “duping” all the plaintiffs listed in the lawsuit. The lawsuit had further alleged that the Defendants had falsely advertised that Mitchell J. Stein would be representing those in the Wright et al vs. Bank of America lawsuit. However, on March 15, 2012, Judge Highberger apparently had one more thing to say to Erikson Davis and Mitchell J. Stein. Judge Highberger announced that the Legaspi vs. Spivak lawsuit had been officially DISMISSED.

On March 15th, 2012, it was reported that a very tired looking Attorney Erikson Davis had entered the courtroom looking as if he had not slept in days, while at the same time, he seemed to be avoiding any eye contact at all with the Brookstone Law Team and Kenin Spivak Team, who had reportedly entered into the courtroom like a intimidating armored tank brigade.

The Honorable Judge Highberger ordered that Mitchell J. Stein’s team had to pay the Defendants any costs associated with the lawsuit that had been filed against Brookstone Law and Attorney Kenin Spivak and SML LLP.

Ding Dong the Mitch is Dead?

.

Congratulations to Kenin Spivak, Edwin Lasman, Theodore Maloney, SML LLP., Brookstone Law – Vito Torchia and Damian Kutzner of Brookstone Law, as it apperars that you might have turned “The Doberman” into nothing other than “The Poodle” by the time you were done with him.

Their names are Brookstone Law and SML LLP. AND THEY FOUGHT BACK AND WON!

    Yoda my ass! He’s Darth Vader. Look up NCFE, Lance Poulsen, and America’s Most Wanted Rebecca Parret. How about all those kids he doesn’r financially support. If it’s about him suing the government, thrn why did the investigation precede August 2011? It is mentioned in the class action lawsuit against Signalife that ended up seytling for $4million about there being an investigation of Signalife. You apparently only know a very small portion of his crime story.

  2. I worked with Toby and Rosie and EVERYTHING that John Wright wrote about, including his young cousin, is absolutely true.
