Question presented

On August 21, 2019, the District of Columbia Court of Appeals (alternatively, “DCCA”), affirmed the Superior Court’s August 27, 2018 order denying Petitioner’s Super. Ct. Civ. R. 60(b)(3), 60(b)(4) and 60(d)(2) motion to vacate its void order granting Respondents’ motion for summary judgment entered on April 20, 2017, in a fraudulent foreclosure of Petitioner’s residence of sixteen years. The judgment is entirely incongruent with the record evidence, rules of civil procedure, impartiality, constitutional rights and other laws. In fact, the judgment expresses approval for the superior court’s utter and profound cruel treatment it openly demonstrated against Petitioner’s rights, inter alia, Fourteenth Amendment that states in pertinent part: “No State shall make or enforce any law which all abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.” Here is a summary of the profound unconstitutional abuse exercised by DC Court of Appeals in its unfounded review against Petitioner’s constitutional rights, but not limited to, other civil rights violations:
