Documents filed in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia reveal that Holly Fujie of Los Angeles allegedly engaged in predicate acts of racketeering through and by means of money laundering, mail and bank fraud, as well as conversion of funds.
A former partner of Los Angeles-based Buchalter Nemer -- who California Governor Jerry Brown appointed to the Los Angeles County Superior Court bench under questionable circumstances involving his cousin, former California Public Utility Commisioner Geoff Brown -- is accused in federal court of committing myriad financial crimes and acts of fraud.
The lawsuit, filed as a civil-racketeering action by Marina Del Rey-based community activist Daniel Dydzak, also names as a defendant Bet Tzedek Legal Services of Los Angeles and Eric George -- the son of the controversial former chief justice of California, Ronald George.
Both Holly Fujie and Eric George were directors of Bet Tzedek, an entity which obtained millions of dollars from the various trusts funds maintained and operated by the State Bar of California, as well as funds from the California Bar Foundation, where Holly Fujie presently serves as the vice-president.
Both the State Bar of California and the California Bar Foundation are under the direct control of the California Supreme Court.

ReplyDeleteOMG! I wonder how long the alleged perps were being watched. Just when you think you heard it all, there is more and this is as serious as it gets.
ReplyDelete"misappropriation" of funds = theft.
There must be a gaggle of BIG GUYS involved!
ReplyDeleteHope they get 'em all!
Judge Holly Fujie is a FAMILY COURT judge. What in the world is a person who is being charged with these kinds of crimes doing deciding the fate of families and children?? There is clearly something wrong with someone who believes they are above the law, deciding on the law. Anti-social personalities should not have power over those who are most vulnerable like children. She needs to be taken off the bench while this litigation unfolds. It is completely inappropriate for her to still be deciding cases.
