When former Playboy Playmate and model Stephanie Adams won guardianship of her 83-year-old aunt in late 2008, she thought the hard part was over.
Adams, who turns 40 this year and commanded the Playboy centerfold in November 1992, had no idea that moving her aunt from The Atrium nursing home in Jersey City to a facility in New York, closer to her home, would take more than a year.
But that's exactly what happened.
The case has taken so long that Adams has filed a complaint against Superior Court Judge Thomas Olivieri with the state Supreme Court's Advisory Committee on Judicial Conduct.
Fed up, Adams filed a complaint with the Advisory Committee on Judicial Conduct, which does not comment on complaints unless it issues a formal complaint against the judge.

Oh we understand well the Judicial Complaint process in NJ. Judge John Malone brought down a Guardianship on my husband after he fired all the attorneys on the case.
He let Anthony P. Kearns III represent my mother-in-law and my husband at the same time the problem was it was a big conflict of interest. Mr. Kearns and my mother in law filed for his Guardianship because he did not want to take a harmful drug and did not want a divorce. Mr. Kearns filed divorce papers when my husband was in a confused state due to Sloan Kettering administering illegal medication without the approval of the FDA.
Then Judge Malone was made aware that there were perjury charge after perjury charge no problem he just ignored it, then my husband asked for Donald Vanarelli to be fired after he was fabricating information to the courts no problem ........ then we got a voice tape where Dan Jurkovic stated if we do not pay Mr. Vanarelli's unmerited bills the Judge will take my husband away.
We report it to Attorney Ethics it disappears we report to the Union County Prosecutor's office nothing happens, we report it to Judicial Misconduct no finding and when we ask why it's confidential.
The Guardianship sham of the century.
Judge Malone and Donald Vanarelli brought down default judgements to pay Mr. Vanarelli's bills after we refused to pay. In New Jersey it is illegal to bring down a default judgement without a Guardian or attorney present in the courtroom.
Mr. Vanarelli had been dismissed and Mr. Jurkovic became my husband's counsel and then Mr. Jurkovic stated he could not defend my husband from paying
legal fees that were not merited because there was not basis for them not being merited. Let's see the guy did not represent my husband's wishes, he got fired,
double billed and brought down illegal default judgments.
Today we are trying to sue Pro Se
in Union County and Judge Chrystal
keeps questioning if I can represent my husband even though I am his Guardian. She has been harping on this since April and will not make a decision but she is already dismissing charges against defendants.
We would hope the FBI, the Federal Prosecutor and the Attorney General will knock on the Union County courts doors soon.
Correction the Judge Malone dismissed all attorneys so my husband had no counsel the day the Guardianship was brought down.
Now that's illegal and if you want to appeal it will cost you more money. To start $350.00 to file $350.00 for a transcript and we have not gotten to any legal fees.
Bizarrely we had a Power of Attorney and Healthcare Proxy and his second attorney put in if he needed a Guardianship it should be limited, but the Judge without ever speaking to my husband brought down a full Incapacitation Guardianship.
Go Figure. A really high functioning person is under a full guardianship stripped of all his rights, and the courts state it is for his own good because of Anthony P. Kearns and my mother-in-law.
In Guardianships Perjury is encouraged because the judges will not ask for prosecution, after all you are only stripping a person's rights away and the attorneys and courts are making lots of money ....
I wonder what the Judges would do if they had to pay $1000 to $2000 an hour to have their rights violated.
I forgot in NJ they do not want to give up their pensions and benefits so I doubt they would want to give up their bank accounts.
We did not want the Guardianship but were afraid if I said he did not need it the judge would give it to someone else. Believe me they were trying hard to find a reason I should not have it. It dragged on for a year. Oh and Judge Chrystal implied that I'm too sensitive because even thought they case me in a false light it would have to be egregious to a normal person. Nothing is egregious in illegal guardianships.
Thank you, Anonymous. I am sorry for what you are going through and will pray for resolve.
Facilities have too much power and they often use it to harm vulnerable people.
I hope your suit is successful, Anon 1. It sounds like you and your husband have been put the the ringer.
