Not having jurisdiction, all orders issued therein are null and void, of no legal force or effect.
An attorney has no right to depend on any order of a judge who is acting without jurisdiction. An attorney has the duty to continually inspect the record of the case to be certain that jurisdiction had properly been invoked, and that the court did no act which deprived it of jurisdiction.
On December 2, 1998 Judge Sullivan issued an order without any lawful authority, permitting attorney Ralla Klepak to cash a check issued by the Clerk of the Circuit Court of Crook County. The money behind the check belonged to the Respondent. Judge Sullivan attempted to punish the Respondent for the Respondent's complying with the law.
Should attorney Ralla Klepak cash that check, then would she not be involved in mail fraud, 18 U.S.C. Section 1341, since the purported order was issued without any legal authority?
Would the taking of money without lawful authority be an interference in interstate commerce? Would this place the parties engaging in taking the money involved in criminal RICO?
Is Judge Daniel J. Sullivan therefore an accessory to the above criminal misconduct?
