    Judge Leanne K. Mayberry: Legal Errors and an Unverified Cherokee Claim…read more Judge Leanne K. Mayberry sits on the El Dorado County Superior Court. Her official biography claims Cherokee citizenship. The only public evidence is that her grandmother attended Chilocco Indian Agricultural School in Oklahoma. The Cherokee Phoenix republished a Tahoe Tribune article calling her a Cherokee citizen. The Cherokee Nation has not provided the documentation its enrollment standards require: documented lineal descent from the Dawes Rolls. Boarding school attendance is not accepted as proof. DNA tests and family lore are also rejected. Court records show a pattern of fundamental legal errors. The Safe Harbor Violation: CCP § 128.7(c)(1) requires a 21-day wait after serving a sanctions motion before filing. A motion was filed the same day it was served. Judge Mayberry granted it. Mutually Exclusive Statutes: CCP §§ 128.5 and 128.7 cannot be combined. A motion sought sanctions under both. Judge Mayberry granted it. Defective Proof of Service: Valid service requires the correct address and consent for email. Judge Mayberry accepted service with the wrong address and an unconsented email, despite the correct address being on file. Silencing a Litigant: At a hearing, a litigant was prohibited from speaking while opposing counsel spoke freely. No accommodation was offered. Defective Sanctions Order: Judge Mayberry signed a $20K sanctions order against a low-income disabled litigant. The order misspelled the litigant's name. It contained no evidence, no itemization, and no finding on ability to pay. Peremptory Challenge: CCP §170.6 gives litigants the right to disqualify one judge per case. After a litigant filed such a challenge, Judge Mayberry did not recuse. Court clerks now reject every filing from that litigant. No motions. No oppositions. No appeals. No new cases. The kangaroo courthouse door is locked. Questions for Institutions: Cherokee Nation: Is Judge Mayberry an enrolled citizen? What is her documented Dawes Roll ancestry? CJP: Has the Commission reviewed these legal errors? Governor's Office: Was her legal knowledge tested? Was her citizenship claim verified? A judge who does not know basic civil procedure, who silences litigants, who accepts defective service, and who retaliates against those who exercise their statutory rights should not be on the bench. The Commission should investigate. The public should pay attention. Based on public court records, judicial biographies, Cherokee Nation statements, and California statutes.

I strongly recommend better training for employees so they can treat people with respect and provide proper assistance.

    Miss Sandy Hurley helped my mother to be free Miss Sandy…read moreHurley helped my mother to be free from my abusive father. (her husband). I can't thank her enough for all her help. I am 20 yrs old and the amount of paperwork they had to do boggles my mind. My mom believes that God led her to Miss Sandy. I do too. Over these last 2 very difficult years, my mom and Sandy have become great friends. I have been in Miss Sandy's beautiful, professional office and even to her home. She is warm and kind and my mother has realized a settlement, in main part because of Miss Sandy's experience, advice, direction, hard work and self sacrifice. Thank you so much Miss Sandy. My mother is already so much happier and soon will have a future that is not under the shadow of abuse. I don't know how she would have achieved what she has without you. When she prayed for God to help her, she didn't know that, right on time, she had been praying for you. And I pray that God will continue to bless you.

    Beware, do not use her for any services! I hired her a few years ago to cancel conservatorship for…read moreour special needs daughter since we were moving out of state, and we had to reestablish the conservatorship in the new state. Paid her in full at the time of hiring her. Long story short, a simple procedure took months because she never returned calls, answered emails. I even reached out to someone through Facebook, who also left a bad review with the same problem asking if it ever resolved, and that person said she never completed their services and she never saw any money back. It's funny she does not have the reviews on Facebook anymore. She finally responded when I threatened her to report her to the police. All of a sudden she was available with a million excuses, and trying to blame everything on her Assistant I didn't even know she had. So save yourself a headache and find someone else.
