vs.
file Plaintiffs’ Brief In Response To Defendants Georgia Power, Brian P. Watt and
FACTS
Plaintiffs filed this action, not as an appeal as the Defendants attempt to have
this Court believe, but as a separate action resulting from “extrinsic fraud”, and
other “illegal acts” Plaintiffs are not claiming a legal error by the state court, they
These defendants claim that Plaintiffs have failed to state a valid cause of
1
Referred to hereinafter as “GA Power Defendants” or “these Defendants”
action. Although Plaintiffs believe they have properly plead, should this Court
decide that defendants are correct, Plaintiffs MOVE this Honorable Court for a
chance to amend their pleading in order to plead the causes of action correctly
they attempt to cloud the issues with matters wholly irrelevant to this case. They
prejudice against the Plaintiffs and thereby manipulate the Court and it’s processes.
Plaintiffs themselves are no strangers to this very tactic”; “…should not allow
Plaintiffs’ misuse of the judicial system…” (MTD pg.2) These Defendants make
several unsubstantiated, false statements with the intent to mislead this Court. (See
These defendants would have Courts of Georgia and the United States
violate the Rights of the disabled, the Rights of pro se litigants, as well as all the

meant to prejudice this Court and has no relevance to this case. These defendants
should take note that the 11th Circuit Appeal has not been dismissed or denied, but
is currently pending,.
Plaintiffs were forced to file the Superior Court action because of Matt
Goff’s allegations to the State Patrol Troopers. Plaintiffs discussed the matter with
law enforcement personnel, who assured them that should anything happen to Matt

Plaintiffs are pro se litigants, Plaintiff Stegeman is a disabled adult as recognized
by The Social Security Act and The Health and Welfare Act and U.S.C. Title 42

§1915 IFP cases and fee-paid cases are viewed differently by the Court in that IFP
cases can be dismissed much more easily than a fee paid case and are “held to
different standards and may be dismissed sua sponte” Vanderberg v. Donaldson,

advised on the proper procedure of photographing the signature in case there was
no way to get a copy of it. Plaintiffs had already filled out the agreement to have
and correct copy of the Motion as “Exhibit 2”. Defendants, to date have refused
to address the document. Five months after being served with Summons and
property. The Verified Answers and counterclaim8 were never and amended to the
Verified Answers.

pg.33¶18; pg.34¶22; pg.35¶¶24,25 GA Power stated 10 times they have a valid
easement; the rest of the counterclaim asks for the Court to grant different kinds of.

which swore that the matter had been thoroughly investigated and were true
including the easement document which was attached as their proof

not the answers to be amended to include a reformation9 of fraudulent evidence;
O.G.C.A. §9-11-15:
(a) Amendments. A party may amend his pleading …before the
entry of a pretrial order…A party may plead or move in response
to an amended pleading… (b) Amendments to conform to the
evidence. When issues not raised by the pleadings are tried by
express or implied consent of the parties,…Such amendment …
may be necessary to cause them to conform to the evidence…
These defendants make false representation to this Court MTD pg.4: “As
Power would be unnecessary. (Id. at ¶¶33,34,65). The statements are lies. These
(Id. at ¶¶58-60,76)”; “…merits of the case decided before any significant discovery
had occurred.10 (See generally, id. at Exhibit 12; ¶¶31, 43, 44).” “…inundated…
with motions…” Obviously, as was done in Superior Court, defendants take things
9
Which is prohibited by Ga. Law in this circumstance as evidenced by the Ga.
Statutes previously provided in Plaintiffs’ complaint and as an Exhibit to Plaintiffs’
Response to Superior Court and Judge Becker’s MTD.
10
There was only one (1) ultimate issue in the case, whether or not GA Power had a
legal easement agreement that pertained to Plaintiffs property. According to rules
of all courts, the main objective is to have the case complete as efficiently as
possible. Once the issue is settled, there is nothing left to discover, it was proven
GA Power did not have a legal easement pertaining to Plaintiffs’ property!
6
out of context as to what is said to manipulate the Court, and looking at the Docket
Report clearly shows that Georgia Power over-burdened the Court with filings, see
photographs, video, etc. Rather than contact Plaintiffs, defendants sent a discovery
dispute letter dated February 19th attached hereto is the original letter “Exhibit
3”;11 on the 1st page, there are four items, Plaintiffs called Watt, and complied with
the demands of the Feb. 19th letter. Defendants then claimed that the letter made
requests for copy of video tape, which was not in the Feb. 19th letter.12
The original letter from Defendant Watt dated February 27 attached hereto
as “Exhibit 4” pg.2 shows that there had been agreement that there would be no
11
Plaintiffs have attached “original” letters or other documents unless the “original”
letter has already been provided as an Exhibit in Plaintiffs’ complaint, which if the
original was used in the Complaint, Plaintiffs have attached a true and correct copy
of the letter and shall so state.
12
Later, in Defendants’ Motion for Continuance the preposterous claim was made
that Plaintiffs refused to allow inspection of the videotape (plaintiffs had said to
contact them for inspection and copying, defendants refused to do so) and that the
videotape gave rise to the lawsuit (a false representation which defendants refused
to address when challenged).
7
Plaintiffs filed Motion to Strike (3/12/2008)13 and filed for a protective order
1) There was no Discovery Dispute, the items in the letter had been
complied with;
2) Discovery requests were in violation of O.C.G.A. §§9-11-26
through 9-11-37, and U.S.C.R.. Rules 5.3, and 6.4;
3) that the same 6.4 letter was used for both Motions to Compel;
4) and that the Watt had perjured himself in both Certifications
13
Plaintiffs mailed the Motion U.S.P.S. Priority, Certified Mail, the Court received
the Motion on March 8, 2008 but held without filing until March 12th and didn’t
mail back Plaintiffs’ copy although there was postage pre-paid, self-addressed
envelope to do so; no explanation was given.
14
Plaintiffs Objected to Continuance; Motion to Strike, Motion to Stay were not
ruled on until the Order dismissing Plaintiffs’ complaint, Motion for Continuance
has never been ruled on.
15
Plaintiffs responded to Motion for Continuance citing bad-faith attempt to delay
and that depositions will not legitimize a falsified fraudulent document.
16
Without ruling on any other Motions Judge Becker jumped to Defendant’s
Motion to Compel filed 03/31/2008 and their second Motion to Compel filed
04/15/2008, without a hearing scheduled and denying Plaintiffs their Rights of due
process, ruled on both Motions in the same Order, in favor of Defendants on May
05/28/2008, then didn’t notify Plaintiffs of the decision.

violation of Georgia statutes which require a definite date and time for response.
Plaintiffs further showed that defendants and their attorneys had perjured
themselves in every Verification, Affidavit, and Certification filed with the court
and were doing so to manipulate the Court and the Court’s process which in turn
violated Plaintiffs’ due process rights and asked to have the offensive documents
stricken.17
“It is the responsibility of the trial court to ensure that the system is
not manipulated by any party…” Carson v. State, Ga. App. (SE2d)
(Case No. A031403, 2003);

To Plaintiffs’ knowledge, to date there still has been no ruling on the Motion for

The case of Brown v. C & S Nat. Bank, 245 Ga. 515 (265 S.E.2d

in Superior Court, by their actions they ask for Summary Judgment, but by their
words attempt to prevent Summary Judgment: “In examining the merits of the
claims, the court must… ‘look only to the facts alleged in the complaint and not
Of course, proceeding as pro se, Plaintiffs are unsure whether or not this
case will be converted and requests this Court to make the determination whether
or not such conversion will take place and inform the parties if conversion is taking
place so that these Plaintiffs can take the appropriate steps for Summary Judgment.
Plaintiffs have shown that GA Power has never had an easement concerning
Plaintiffs’ property, yet continue to claim they do. (MTD pg. 3: “…Georgia Power

A. Under Color Of State Law
It has been held that where as here, the allegations are that these defendants
conspired with Judge Becker, her law clerk and calendar clerk. Judge Becker and
her clerks performed official acts, the acts were the product of a corrupt conspiracy
with these defendants, the acts were performed without consequence were illegal
acts designed to have Plaintiffs’ case dismissed for a fictional discovery dispute.;
link the illegal acts that plagued the Superior Court proceedings, Plaintiffs believe
they showed the link. (Compl. pgs. 8-16) Plaintiffs have attached a true and
correct copy Plaintiffs’ Statements For The Record… as “Exhibit 7”20. Judge
the Court and it’s process without interference, which resulted in Plaintiffs’
intentional gross violations of Plaintiffs’ right to due process of law and ultimately
Private parties who corruptly conspire with a judge in connection with such
conduct are thus acting under color of state law within the meaning of §1983.
20
Plaintiffs attempted to have Judge Becker address the illegal acts numerous
times.
13
“… ‘under color of’ state law for §1983 purposes does not requite
that the defendant be an officer of the state. It is enough that he is a
willful participant in joint action with the State or its agents.
Private persons, jointly engaged with State officials in the
challenged action, are acting “under color” of law for purposes of
§1983 actions.” Adickes v. S. H. Kress & Co., 398 U/S/ 144, 152
(1970); United States v. Price, 383 U.S. 787, 794 (1966)

“Title U.S.C. §242, the criminal analog of §1983, also contains a
color-of-state-law requirement and we have interpreted the color-
of-state-law requirement in these sections coextensively. Adickes
v. S. H. Kress & Co., supra, at 152, n. 7. A state judge can be found
criminally liable under §242…See Imbler v. Pachtman, 242 U.S.
409, 429 (1976); O’Shea v. Littleton, 414 U.S. 488, 503 (1974). In
either case, the judge has acted under color of law.”
These defendants’ MTD pgs. 11-12 show seven of the instances referenced
by Plaintiffs complaint starting with “Superior Court failed …” see the following:
O.C.G.A. § 44-2-77

time before final decree, the judge, or the examiner with the approval

adjoining landowners shall be given at least five days' notice. The
petitioner or any adjoining owner dissatisfied with the survey may file
a protest with the court within ten days from the time the plat is filed;
and thereupon an issue shall be made up and tried as in case of protest

the Georgia constitutional provision which declares that no person
shall be deprived of liberty except by due process of law”

Amendments (MTD pg.13). The Supreme Court has explained, “[c]ertain wrongs

thereof, …. It shall contain a full description of the land, its
valuation, and its last assessment for county taxation; shall show
when, how, and from whom it was acquired, a description of the

passing a decree upon any petition for registration, the judge, on his
own motion or upon the recommendation of the examiner, may
require a fuller and more adequate description or one tending more
permanently to identify the tract in question to be included in the
petition by amendment; and if, in the discretion of the court, it shall
be necessary, the judge may for that purpose require a survey of the
premises to be made and the boundaries marked by permanent

accuracy; and where reasonably practicable the court may require
the metes and bounds to be stated.

more than 50 days from the date thereof why the prayers of the
petition should not be granted and why the court should not proceed
to judgment in such cause. The clerk shall make the necessary
copies of the petition and process for service….
O.C.G.A. §44-2-77
While the cause is pending before the examiner of titles or at any

“Redress for such a violation is available under 42 U.S.C. §1983 when the

Ga. Statues are clear on property, the Court’s responsibilities concerning real
property disputes. The facts are clear, Plaintiffs’ property was prior to filing suit in
Superior Court, the Court and attorneys refused to abide by Ga. Statutes which
shows that there was a conspiracy, an agreement was made to have Plaintiffs’
complaint dismissed, the plan was carried out through a fictional discovery dispute,
Plaintiffs’ case was dismissed without a hearing having been scheduled. Looking
at the Ga. Statutes concerning what would have had to take place before GA Power
could have attempted to claim part of Plaintiffs’ property together with the fact that

The Plaintiffs in this case do not seek to set aside judgment of Superior

Plaintiffs have shown that what the Defendants attempted to do and have
done concerning real property could not be done either through “Reformation” or
“Declaratory Judgment”; but could only be done using proper process of O.C.G.A.
§§ 44-2-1 through 44-2-77. In fact, without following the procedure, the Superior
Court lacked jurisdiction over Plaintiffs’ private property. Defendants could not
use the proper procedure due to the “punishments” involved for falsifying real
B. Obstruction
willful intent to obstruct justice of the illegal acts shows throughout the Response.
Jowers v. State, 225 Ga. App. 809 (2) (484 SE2d 803) (1997), the
language therein unambiguously prohibits an individual from
making or using any false writing or document, without regard to
the identity of the individual who initially made or subsequently
used the false document. . Because there is no limitation placed on
the prohibited conduct of "making or using" false documents in
OCGA 16-10-20, the statutory language does not support the Court
of Appeals' holding that prosecution for use of a false document is
limited to those situations in which an accused uses false
documents prepared by another. State v. Johnson, supra at 837.

society would find their acts extreme and outrageous; 4) the acts
caused distress 5) the distress was severe especially to a disabled
man.
CONCLUSION
These Pro Se Plaintiffs believe that they properly plead their complaint, have
properly addressed MTD and MOVE this Honorable Court to DENY Defendants’
MTD. Further, should this Court decide that Plaintiffs failed to properly plead,
Plaintiffs MOVE this Court to be lenient and allow them to Amend their complaint.
