Date Filed Document Text
September 12, 2022 Filing 13 LETTER addressed to Judge Laura Taylor Swain from T. Komatsu, dated 9/12/22 re: I am filing this letter in response to having just learned that the New York City Human Resources Administration issued a public notice earlier today which is available at https//:a856-cityrecord.nyc.gov/Request Detail/20220906044 in an official New York City Government report known as the City Record. That public notice is about HRA's intent to conduct a public hearing on 9/22/22 at 10:00 am about a proposed contract between HRA and Urban Pathways, Inc. etc. Document filed by Towaki Komatsu.(sc)
September 10, 2022 Filing 12 LETTER addressed to Judge Laura Taylor Swain from T. Komatsu, dated 9/10/22 re: I got further confirmation today that Judge Ramos is clearly and illegally discriminating with your tacit or explicit approval that demands your recusal from all litigation involving me as well as the immediate reassignment of such litigation together with the consolidated case of Komatsu v. City of New York, #20-cv-746(ER)(GWG) that is hereinafter referred to as "K1" etc. Document filed by Towaki Komatsu.(sc)
September 7, 2022 Filing 11 LETTER addressed to Judge Laura Taylor Swain from T. Komatsu, dated 9/7/22 re: I am filing this letter to further supplement my earlier request today to be granted reconsideration about your 8/15/22 order in this case on different grounds than what I discussed in that earlier letter today. My grounds in this letter for seeking that reconsideration are due to the following reasons: You made the following baseless, premature, prejudicial, vacuously shortsighted, and otherwise irrelevant claims in your 8/15/22 order in this case: "Here, Plaintiff attempts to join many unrelated parties and claims in a single action, which he cannot do" etc. Document filed by Towaki Komatsu.(sc) Modified on 9/8/2022 (sc).
September 7, 2022 Filing 10 LETTER addressed to Judge Laura Taylor Swain from T. Komatsu, dated 9/7/22 re: I am filing this letter to further request reconsideration about your 8/15/22 order in this case etc. While making the preceding remarks(as previously indicated) in that order, you prejudicially ignored the fact that U.S. District Judge Edgardo Ramos has been continuously and illegally ignoring my submissions in K1. He has continued to do so after I filed my 9/2/22 letter in K1 to request retroactive authorization to pursue a new civil action etc. Document filed by Towaki Komatsu.(sc)
September 1, 2022 Filing 9 LETTER addressed to Judge Laura Taylor Swain from T. Komatsu, dated 9/1/22 re: In short, this means that you prejudicially opted to defy my First and Fourteenth Amendment rights as well as the rules of conduct for United States judges by dismissing this case while relying on Judge Ramos' wholly unreliable, illegal and discriminatory 12/15/20 filing restrictions on me. Document filed by Towaki Komatsu.(sc)
August 16, 2022 Filing 8 LETTER addressed to Judge Laura Taylor Swain from T. Komatsu, dated 8/16/22 re: I am filing this letter to apprise you about the critically significant fact that I learned tonight that U. S. District Judge Edgardo Ramos has been subjecting me to criminal obstruction of justice and discrimination all along since 12/15/20 in the consolidated case of Komatsu v. City of New York No. 20cv7046(ER)(GWG)(SDNY) that demands immediate, decisive, and comprehensive corrective action by you etc. Document filed by Towaki Komatsu.(sc)
