Once an attorney is
licensed, she may practice in any area of the law she chooses. Some choose to
practice criminal law as either a prosecutor or defense attorney. Prosecutors
represent the state or federal government in criminal prosecutions while defense
attorneys are charged with defending the person accused of the crime. Both
prosecutors and defense attorneys must complete the same education and pass the
same examinations. While the qualifications may vary somewhat by state, the
process is similar in all states

Re: C-38 makes a mockery of the role of Parliament, Column, May 1
In spring 2005, Stephen Harper threatened to bring down Paul Mar-tin's
government for using the Budget Implementation Act to change laws.
"This is an attempt by the government to get unlimited power to impose
multimillion-dollar fines on any basis, without any parliamentary approval or
discussion, whatsoever. It is completely unacceptable," Harper stated in the
House of Commons.
He then went on to clarify: "This is a back-door way ... a dangerous way of
proceeding, and it will certainly not have the support of this party."
Fast forward to last week. The Conservatives' Budget Implementation Act C-38
includes changes to the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, the Kyoto
Implementation Act and the Fisheries Act, while under-mining the Species at Risk
Act.

HALIFAX — Imperial Oil plans to shop its
refinery in Dartmouth, N.S., and related supply agreements to prospective
buyers in the coming months.
Imperial says the move is part of a review that could see the Dartmouth
operation converted to a terminal or some other alternative.
Company chairman Bruce March says Imperial realizes the importance of the
refinery to the local community and that the decision has been a "difficult"
one.
However, he said the company remains committed to providing service to its
customs and pledged to keep employees and the community updated on developments
as the review process moves forward.
March says the company hopes to make a decision on the sale or some other
alternative by early 2013.

My question concerns fraud and forgery. There is a Warranty Deed that deals with
selling interests in inherited land property. One seller's signature is
definitely forged. It has not been determined yet whether the other signature
was forged. Does it invalidate the whole document if just one of the two
signatures turns out to be forged?

A Texas man was arrested on federal charges that he stole actual houses in an
elaborate scheme involving fake buyers and fraudulent titles, prosecutors said.
He is alleged to have taken over 100 homes and other properties worth more than
$1 million.
The scheme, according to the complaint, involved the filing of affidavits
listing a fictitious person as the heir of a property left to them by the owner
who had recently died. The new owner, so called “fraudster heir" could then sell
the property to another fictitious person, the complaint stated.
The fraudster rented post office boxes using the name of his elderly
grandmother and listed her as an officer of a company he incorporated. She was
99 when she died in 2002, according to the complaint.
A district attorney's investigator identified more than 300 forged warranty
deeds, affidavits of heirship and other documents filed from 2007 through
December 2009. They expect that other property owners have been affected, but
have not been discovered yet.

Forging signatures is illegal and if your ex has done so, then you need to take
legal steps in order to safeguard your interests.
The other fraud scheme was identifying houses whose owners had recently died and
claiming to be the owner's sole heir. The fraudster would then file a forged
heirship affidavit, attesting that a fictitious person was the sole heir of the
deceased owner. The next step was to file another fraudulent warranty deed that
transferred the property from the “fictitious heir “to businesses he controlled.
In his attempt to conceal his involvement he would use companies to transfer
stolen properties using the names of deceased relatives and/or fictitious people
as the owners of the business entities.

The first scheme involved properties where fraudulent warranty deed transfers
were almost always used for vacant lots with unpaid back taxes due and/or with
weed liens filed against them by the city. After identifying a property, the
fraudster would file a forged warranty deed transferring the property to a
fictitious buyer, forging the signature of the true property owner, and forging
the signature and notary stamp affixed to the documents and then file it with
the County Clerk's Office.

Vatican tries to shed tax fraud, terror financing

Posted on Sun, 01/29/2012 - 13:21 in Finance
(The
Washington Post): The Vatican has rewritten its 2010 anti-money
laundering law after European inspectors found that it didn’t fully meet their
tough standards to combat the financing of terrorism. The new law, a copy of
which was obtained Friday by The Associated Press, requires the Vatican to
create a list of terror organizations based on those issued by the United
Nations and requires the Vatican enter into agreements with other countries to
share financial information. The Holy See has been working for years to comply
with European norms on money-laundering and terror financing in a bid to shed
its image as a secrecy-obsessed tax haven and join the so-called “white list” of
countries that crack down on tax fraud.
The Vatican’s efforts to get on the “white list” went into high gear after
Rome prosecutors in September 2010 seized €23 million ($30 million) and placed
the pope’s top two bankers under investigation in an alleged money-laundering
scheme.
The money was subsequently released and no indictments have been handed down,
though the president of the Vatican’s Institute for Religious Works, or IOR, and
his deputy remain under investigation.http://one-evil.org/acts_global_depression/acts_global_depression.htm

Vatican Money Too Dirty Even for J.P.Morgan – Pot Calling the
Kettle Black?
by MikeMcSheaFollow
Can the Catholic Church’s Vatican banking system be laundering money for drug
cartels, arms dealers and human trafficking? Good question. In all likelihood,
this Vatican account closed by J P Morgan had to be closed because of Vatican
secrecy and refusal to comply with the simplest of banking rules worldwide.
JP Morgan closes Vatican bank's account
Thirty years after it was entangled in a scandal involving the
mafia, money laundering and the mysterious death of the man nicknamed "God's
banker," the Vatican bank faces fresh controversy.
The bank - formally known as the Institute for Works of Religion or IOR - has
suffered the ignominy of having one of its accounts closed by JP Morgan after
stone-walling requests for information.
The sanction came less than two weeks after the U.S. State Department listed
the Vatican as being potentially vulnerable to money laundering.
A Milan affiliate of JP Morgan said it will shut the account by the end of
the month after revealing Vatican bankers had been "unable to respond" to
requests for details about payments into the account.
A spokesman for JP Morgan in Milan declined to comment, citing client
confidentiality.
The Milan branch had been seeking information since 2010,
when the Vatican bank was accused by authorities in Rome of contravening
money-laundering regulations.
In an unusual move, Ettore Gotti Tedeschi, president of the Vatican bank, was
placed under investigation and a judge in Rome ordered a freeze on $30 million
held in one of the bank's accounts.
The scandal prompted the Vatican bank to initiate anti-money-laundering
legislation, which is currently being debated by the Roman Catholic Church
hierarchy.http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/03/21/1076407/-Vatican-Money-Too-Dirty-Even-for-J-P-Morgan-Pot-Calling-the-Kettle-Black-

CONTINUES TO MOVE HIS STOLEN FUNDS:
As we indicated in our last White Hats Report #24, the following is
new preliminary information just received in reference to Obama's illegal
funds. World Security Agencies and Falcone’s investigators continue to watch
the movement of Obama's illegal funds with trading profits exceeding 3 Billion
Dollars.
* At this time, Obama has not
moved his funds from HSBC, but he has started to move his illegal funds out of
Barclay Bank. We are watching these activities and suspect this is partly due
to the fact that Price Waterhouse Cooper has put Barclay Bank on notice for the
mismanagement of massive stolen funds.

Creative
accounting
.
To hide the massive assets of the Catholic Church,
a decentralized system with safeguards and controls were invented. Whereas it
would have been unthinkable even 200 years ago to place such wealth in the
hands of bishops. However thanks to modern communication, modern finance and
accounting, the task was much easier.
The major investments of property, fixed assets
were transferred under the control of the dioceses around the world. In turn,
all non-visible church property was hidden via complex shelf companies and
trusts.
Major classes of assets such as shares, gold
bullion, diamonds and other precious resources were transferred for direct
control under the banks owned and controlled by the Vatican.
Using the cloaks of secrecy in such states as
Switzerland and even the Vatican itself, the true ownership and identity of
these massive treasures could be hidden.
The Vatican depends upon these laws of secrecy to
maintain the lie of its true wealth. Without the secret banking laws and lack
of uniform, proper and transparent disclosure laws around the world, the great
fraud that the Catholic Church is no longer No 1. could not be maintained.
Thus in the end, the single largest economic
entity the world has ever seen disappeared from the radar of people’s minds
and returned as a poor and impoverished church in desperate need of
funds.

The financial newspaper, which gave the number of the IOR account, said some

with funds transferred to another IOR account in Germany.
