- GOWANAGUS:
  
  re-programming a
  PROCEDURAL DUE PROCESS DEPRIVED Brooklyn theater
  as the legal swamp settles.
  Once the court addresses a decision on no notice (DONN) to Brooklyn Lyceum Attorney:
  
  a decision which must be overturned as Plaintiff attorney filed proofs of Brooklyn Lyceum attorney informal appearance to keep case from being declared abandoned some three years after swearing no appearance by Brooklyn Lyceum to obtain a decision. ...
  the Brookyn Lyceum will be back & needs to hit the swamp running.
  To that end ... --we are plotting programming now
  so that we can implement that programming when we get rolling, whether at the actual Brooklyn Lyceum or an interim one.
  --YOU CAN ... participate in programming the Lyceum
  by scoring curatorial votes by brain, body or past effort.

LOCATIONSinterim spots
- While we wait for the inevitable, either the court accepts:
  
  the original judicial checkmate of the complaint being statutorily abandoned
  based on record provided to the Court by the Plaintiff.
  
  the alternate judicial checkmate of the complaint not being statutorily abandoned
  ---failure to serve our atty any papers leading to a Judicial Order on No Notice (JONONO)!
  
  See how Judicial Orders on No Notice have been dealt with ...
  In New York State (and various other jurisdictions)....
  and a mockup of our papers ... jonono.org
  to have the court deal wth us the same.
  
  We are looking at a couple of interim sites in our other haunts
  (New York State, Philadelphia and Maine).
DONNDecision On No Notice
- TL/DR: After Plaintiff MISLED the court that ...
  multiple defendants did not have an attorney to obtain decision,
  an attorney upon whom the Plaintiff failed to serve the Notice of Motion
  
  Plaintiff three years later swore otherwise to defend decision ...
  with lower/appellate courts necessarily finding:
  Defendant appearance by attorney to validate that decision.
  
  If appearance by atty 15 months prior to 1st motion in case ...
  was the notice of 1st motion (or any paper) served on that atty (as required by statute)?
  
  If not,
  --court never empowered to rule on motion (lacked jurisdiction), and,
  --no rights vest from such a decision, and,
  --no deadline, aka Statute of Limitations, to vacate such a decision.
  --absent participation in motion, impossible to waive jurisdiction.
  
  Where we are: Judicial Order on 1st motion in case
  on no notice to attorney
  who lower/appellate courts found had appeared by way of
  --two written extensions of time to answer,
  --multiple oral extensions of time to answer and
  --service of answer on Plaintiff atty.
  --rejection of same answer by Plaintif atty.
  
  Roadmap to Judicial Order on No Notice (JONONO):
  
  Lower Court (Judge Donald Scott Kurtz): -A-rendered an order premised, unwittingly,
  on Plaintiff's sly failure to inform court
  that multiple defendants had appeared by attorney
  and that the Plaintiff had failed to serve motion papers on that attorney.
  -B-ruled Lyceum (Defendant) later moved too late to allege Kurtz made decision Kurtz was prohibited by law from making
  by moving after very same decision Kurtz was prohibited by law from making.
  -C-ruled Plaintiff timely moved by incorporating documents (atty communications) not on docket
  that Plaintiff attorney withheld from court for some 36 months,
  until they were helpful in showing what they previously swore did not exist (Lyceum appearance by atty) ... existed.
  
  (after stating at oral argument that "the 2nd Department has an excellent reputation" and "we will get to the bottom of it") Appellate Court (Judges Reinaldo E. Rivera, John M. Leventhal, Sylvia O. Hinds-Radix and Valerie Brathwaite Nelson): -1-Couldn't stomach B, so they ruled, counter to decades of caselaw,
  that Lyceum moved too late by moving after entry of subsequent "final" judgment notwithstanding that the motion (Oct 17, 2012) acually came before entry of the judgment (Oct. 26, 2012.)
  We still haven't figured out why court made up, and refused to correct, that fact, that Oct 17 comes AFTER Oct 26.
  -2-Rubber stamped C by making ruling that Plaintiff timely moved, without doing the datemath,
  a ruling only possible if the Appellate Court necessarily incorporated same withheld from the court attorney communications (Lyceum appearance by atty).

  6 Easy Pieces
  
  READ!---THINK!
  
  ...gain understanding...
  
  STEP 1
  
  read layman's roadmap to Judicial Order on No Notice (JONONO) to Defendant (Lyceum) attorney.
  
  STEP 2
  
  read short summary of common law v. statute &
  common law (informal) appearance v. statutory appearance in New York
  
  STEP 3
  
  read short summary of statute on requirement to serve atty all papers
  & of failure to serve atty notice failing to invoke power of the court.
  
  STEP 4
  
  read short summary of how failure to invoke power of the court:
  ---never empowers court to rule on the motion
  ---vests no rights
  ---creates no deadline, aka Statute of Limitations, to vacate (overturn) such a decision.
  
  STEP 5
  
  READ:
  ---portion of Request for Judicial Intervention (RJI) that Plaintiff slyly leaves the spot for opposing counsel blank.
  ---portion of plaintiff atty sworn statement (in support of motion)
  not informing court that parties have appeared by attorney
  when slyly stating:
  "that all parties had either not appeared or, having appeared, failed to answer and their time to do so had expired."
  ---portion of lower court decision premised on that Plaintiff atty sworn statement.
  ---portion of subsequent plaintiff atty sworn statement swearing no communication whatsoever with any Defendant
  ---portion of subsequent plaintiff atty swearing communication between plaintiff atty and Defendant atty.
  (extensions of time to answer complaint and answer served on plaintiff atty and rejection of answer)
  ---1 page extension of time to answer submitted by plaintiff atty to show plaintiff did not abandon case.
  ---portion of subsequent decision premised upon atty communications prior to 1st motion of the case.
  ---proof of service of motion NOT on Defendant (Lyceum) attorney.
  
  STEP 6
  
  Think: if plaintiff now swears plaintiff granted extension of time to answer to atty for Defendant Lyceum but proof of service of motion does not show sevice on that atty, how can decision on that un-served motion stand?
  
  6 Not So Easy Pieces
  
  ACT!---APPEAR!
  
  ...earn/use/transfer cultural programming votes...
  {or trade in those votes for time or cash for a cause}
  
  STEP 1
  
  choose / edit / notarize / send affidavit
  (? votes when accepted, ? vote each time submitted to any court by Lyceum until decision overturned)
  
  STEP 2
  
  1st to submit a case, from any jurisdiction, supporting (or contradicting) one of the following points ( ? vote ):
  ---Failure to serve attorney never invokes power of the court
  ---decisions made without invoking power of the court vest no rights
  ---decisions made without invoking power of the court create no deadline, aka Statute of Limitations, to vacate such a decision
  
  after having submitted an accepted affidavit:
  which vests votes from steps 1 and 2 as well as subsequently earned votes (3-6).
  
  STEP 3
  
  ... appear live at hearing (? votes)
  .... appear zoomlike at hearing (? votes)
  .... appear live at event (? votes)
  donate to swaslu.com (coffee business) - ? vote per $?
  can draw down as coffee (?% discount)
  
  STEP 4
  
  convert former lyceum sweat equity to votes
  
  STEP 5
  
  convert remaining votes to time or $$$ for a cause.
  
  Too much time - effort - thinking:
  
  STEP 6
  
  I dont want to vote on programming, don't want to give indirectly to a cause and dont like coffee, i just want to help you offset costs incurred till the decision is overturned
  because PROCEDURAL DUE PROCESS MATTERS!!.

  Since theorizing proof of work for votes in programming an arts facility
  
  it has been noted that what people are really doing is ensuring procedural due process and that the voting ought, also, be used to help others get procedural due process.
  
  The Lyceum may not be what floats everyone's long term boats.
  
  Exchange Programming votes for either hours of time or dollars for a cause you choose from our ever-expanding list.
  
  Have us help someone else once you help us and we come up for air,
  
  a procedural due process paying it forward!
  
  In addition to Lyceum programming votes, you get votes in directing the procedural due process engine jafomaru.com
  
  those votes can also help choose litigants to help and how to help them get procedural due process using a library arsenal of procedural due process information built from Brooklyn Lyceum experiences and any other sources we can scrounge.

MEHWhy does this matter?
- MEH, WHY DOES THAT MATTER?:
  because procedural due process matters... duh!
  
  Power of the court MUST be invoked
  
  by proper procedure
  
  else decisions the court makes
  
  never attain any authority,
  even if perceived to have authority for decades.
  see United States v. Lee, 106 U.S. 196 (1882)
  USA had to rebuy Arlington National Cemetery
  18 years after it became a cemetery ... for lack of proper procedure.
  
  Only proper service of the complaint
  
  invokes the power of the court.
  
  As a motion is a mini-case
  
  improper or lack of service of the notice of motion on the parties
  or facial insufficiency of the notice of motion fail to invoke the power of the court.
GOTCHASWhat are they?
- OK, WHAT ARE THE GOTCHAS?:
  
  Participation, on the merits, in motion
  w/o raising lack of procedural due process
  
  can waive lack of procedural due process.
  (did not happen, so unwaived)
  
  Defendant forwarding papers
  inappropriately served on Defendant to Defendant atty.
  
  can waive lack of procedural due process.
  (did not happen, so unwaived)
  
  Attorney appearing at oral argument
  w/out arguing lack of procedural due process
  
  can waive lack of procedural due process.
  (did not happen, so unwaived)
  
  Attorney serving opposition papers
  w/out arguing lack of procedural due process
  
  can waive lack of procedural due process.
  (did not happen, so unwaived)
  
  Passage of time, even decades
  
  cannot waive lack of procedural due process.
  
  Facially, fatally defective notice of motion
  absent waiver of fatal facial defects ...
  
  cannot invoke the power of the court.
NEXTThe battle continues ...
- NEXT?
  
  We are starting to prepare
  a motion to undo 1st order in the case:
  an illegal order on no notice to Lyceum atty.
  
  This will NECESSARILY require vacating the foreclosure sale
  of the Brooklyn Lyceum.
