Letter to Larry Drivon

May 3, 1986

 

This is a letter from me to Larry Drivon wherein I advise him of something he probably already knows. That is, as a former Trust Officer/Lawyer for Wells Fargo Bank in San Francisco around the time that my trust account and 5% partnership interest in "Haig Berberian" vis-a-vis Well Fargo Bank was being established there, and sometime thereafter, Judge Raymond Daniel Williamson, Jr. had a conflict of interest and should have recused himself from the case. Larry did not help me to contest the judgment as I ask in my letter. And ultimately I did nothing about the matter because I was afraid to do so. This was the first time that I saw for myself and thoroughly believed that "the bad guys" are not just a figment of my overwrought imagination. The first thing that I did as an in pro per was to check out the smell that I smelled at the June 20, 1986 hearing. I went to a law library and read the Judge's profile. And, in my opinion then and now, the Judge should have gotten the hell off of my case. (Of course, the assumption is that he wasn't specifically selected for this hearing) He knew that he had worked for a crooked bank on whose case he was ruling. Either that or he was a lousy lawyer and didn't know he was party to the bank's corruption. I mean, if I can figure out that Wells Fargo Bank is and was sleazy, especially in its early days when merging with American Trust Co., then the Judge should have known. On second thought, when the robe is worn, the slate becomes clean. Okay, never mind.
