The ongoing legal battles with Dan Bernath

Obviously we haven’t written about this much lately, for two good reasons.   1) The dude revels in the attention and 2) he takes comments that you all make, and then tries to sue you guys, and/or hold us responsible for comments under some sort of asinine conspiracy theory/RICO Act or Gang Statute.  So let this serve as your warning, if you comment with something stupid, he’s likely to add you to the lawsuits, and you really don’t want that.

And just how many cases are we talking about? The following Bernath-filed lawsuits or complaints all deal with the same or overlapping parties or fact allegations:

1. A pending case filed by the Plaintiff, Daniel A. Bernath, in the US District Court, Middle District of Florida, on June 16, 2015 (Daniel A. Bernath v. Mark Cameron Seavey, Case No. 2:15-CV-00358-FtM-99CM);

Bernath, Case No. 1401-00633). The case was involuntarily dismissed by the court on October 6, 2014;

Mind you this list doesn’t even include the plethora of attempted restraining orders that haven’t worked, attempts to have law enforcement do stuff to us, complaints against me to the Indiana Bar, his alleged Bar complaints against my attorneys, and just his general nuisance making.  (Like whoever *cough* has made random repeated complaints to child protective services that I was strapping my then 4 month child to the dog.)  Oh, let’s not forget his disbarment.

Now, bear in mind that all told his success rate is exactly 0.00 percent.  He has not succeeded on even one motion.  But that was never his goal, as he made clear in an email sent on June 28^th:

It is not about winning motions (Shipley faces trial in 4 states).  It is about stopping you. (by the way, the Court of Appeal will overturn the set aside of Shipley’s stating that he will ignore the lawsuit as a litigation tactic…Shipley has that appeal to lose in the future)

Whats our score card?

TSO shuts the fuck up for fear he will have his additional words shoved up his ass…..the courts are just another tool.  Free for us.  Expensive for you with the additional risk that you’ll lose everything. 0 for 40. Nah.  You lost.  We won.

 

Now, I don’t want to make this blog posting 8,000 words long, but I did want to defend myself in a public forum on some of the fabricated claims these guys are making about me on their various websites. At one point we were tracking about 7 websites, but they keep getting shut down.   They still post to some Web Apps page, and they have thisainthell.is but that’s basically it. DO NOT GO TO thisainthell.is or at least not without recognizing that it is literally full on gay porn. Literally. They seem to have a fascination with it. But you don’t want to go there, there’s nothing particularly relevant about their ramblings.

They are claiming in court documents and emails that they don’t run those sites.  Luckily for us, they didn’t know what they were doing when they set it up, so we have all the proof we will need it is them.  Not going to lay on more than that so they can close the loophole, but trust me, their setting up websites was done with the expertise we’ve come to expect from them.

But I did want to answer some of the allegations Bernath is making about me.  I was just going to let the legal system do it for me, but it’s taking damn near forever, as it does, so I am going to pick some gems out of his latest filing, and just tell the truth, so you can see the nonsense I need to deal with.

BERNATHIAN concoction:

Defendants have admitted that they tormented six veterans to suicide….

But, my Legion is comprised of some highly trained killers who miss the excitement of combat and look for the thrill by tormenting victims to death like Ike Densmore and Jerome Andronsky and me. Obviously mentally ill Veteran Andronsky killed himself with a shotgun in his mother’s home on a military base after the Legion’s mercilessly tormenting him.

The number alternates, often in the same filing between three veterans who Bernath claims we’ve forced to suicide, and six.  The only ones ever mentioned by name are Densmore and Androsky.  Now, the problem for Bernath here is that he’s filing this in a copyright, defamation, and intentional infliction of emotional of distress case against the American Legion and me, personally.  I don’t believe I’ve ever written about Densmore.  I could be wrong, I might have left a comment or something, but I can’t even find that.  As far as I know, I had never even heard of the guy until after he killed himself.  And he killed himself only after a TV station did an entire story about his lies.  I do know it had nothing to do with me, and certainly nothing to do with the Legion.  Plus, again, it has absolutely nothing to do with a copyright infringement or the other issues in our litigation.

Androsky (Bernath uses “Andronsky” for some reason), as far as we can tell, didn’t even commit suicide.  According to what we’ve been told he passed away from acute heart failure, not a shotgun blast.  He fought a lifetime of addiction to drugs which ended up killing him, not our blog.

But even assuming you count those two.  Who is the other one (or four)?  Where did numbers come from?  We’ll probably never know, because this has absolutely nothing to do with the case at hand.  One thing I do know, Bernath can’t point to anything I’ve ever written where I admitted to “torment[ing] six veterans to suicide.”  The only time I discuss suicide is when it was a person in my unit, and that’s something I deal with on a personal level.  It’s certainly not something I would joke about or take credit for.

 

BERNATHIAN concoction:

Mark Seavey has been found guilty of being a sexual predator by Maryland judge Patricia Mitchell on 03/20/2015…. As Mark Seavey is a convicted sexual predator, of course his employment would be closely scrutinized.

In fact, no, not even close.  This is a reference to the restraining order that Karen Williams got against me.  As the judge in that case made ABUNDANTLY clear even in agreeing to the restraining order, I never went near Ms. Williams, never spoke to her, never called her, and the only email sent to her was one where I “replied to all” on an email from her husband wherein he was threatening me.  In short, I couldn’t be a sexual predator, as I’d never met, seen, talked to, or to my knowledge, been within 50 miles of her.

But let’s back up anyway.  A restraining order hearing is a civil hearing, not a criminal one.  Any first year law student knows that.  And people are not found “guilty” in a civil hearing.  The restraining order was granted for third-party comments that made Ms. Williams *fear* something might happen.  Not only did I not write them, I didn’t even know about most of them.

We immediately appealed because federal law says that interactive website companies and blogs are immune from comments made by third parties.   That appeal would have been heard in late July of last year, but Ms. Williams failed to appear and the entire restraining order was VACATED.  Which means all this nonsense isn’t true in any way, shape or form.

BERNATHIAN concoction:

Mark Seavey, using the American Legion website and using the facilities of the nat’l headquarters of American Legion, http://valorguardians.com/blog/?p=32505 posted child pornography and Mark Seavey put such evidence of his crimes into this Court’s file as evidence.

If you go to the link he puts in there, and I’m going to assume you are rational, you will discover two things: 1) it is not child pornography, and 2) they were WWII recruiting posters, made by the US Government.  On top of that, Bernath adds this graphic (deleted).

He has pictures in there that aren’t in that post, and he’s inserted a computer disc with my name and “child porn collection.”  Now, where did that picture originate?  From his own website, the now defunct “A Special Day Guide.”  Again, none of this has anything to do with copyright infringement or our cases, he’s just trying to make me look bad.

Which brings me to his other allegation of child porn.  At one point a commenter got very upset with Bernath and said something dumb.  I don’t really fault him for it, because Bernath is a master of poking the bear.  This commenter allegedly said something about Bernath’s adult daughter, and something he would do on her picture.  Bernath uses this against me all the time.  There are of course problems with that theory as well, not the least of which being 1) I never saw the comment itself, it was deleted and replaced with an apology before I was even aware of it, and 2) Bernath’s daughter isn’t even close to being a minor.

 

BERNATHIAN concoction:

Defendant Mark Seavey has stated in his publications on the internet that (1) he masturbated with minor Australians, (2) that he was “chronic” in his masturbations when he was in the war zone, purportedly protecting our country and (3) that as a sergeant he permitted his men to masturbate in all 26 guard towers, rather than do his duty as their supervisor to make them watch for the enemy to protect the sleeping troops instead of looking at pornographic magazines. This is what Mark Seavey wrote-not me.

In fact, not one of those things is true.  His source on this is Media Matters, so some back story may help elucidate a bit.  When I returned from Afghanistan I was in a closed (not public) forum with other veterans and veteran supporters who were conservatives.  We talked about a lot of things.  The proverbial locker room talk (I know this is a bad time to use that reference) if you will.  Anyway, at one point there was some fight between two administrators and one made the forum public, and everyone got angry, and then it got deleted entirely.  Somewhere in that week, Media Matters grabbed some things I had purportedly said, because I had been in the news for the Murtha thing.  The problem is that some of the stuff they grabbed was not even me.  So at the time I wrote to them and said I would own up to what I said, but some of the stuff is inaccurate.  To their credit, they did correct some of it, and they moved the whole thing to a different page.  I wrote again letting them know it was still wrong but never heard back.  But being attacked by Media Matters sounded fine with me.

But to the actual allegations from Bernath.  Again, he has misquotes from a third party, which makes it hearsay anyway, which is why I’ll never get to defend this stuff in court.

As for Aussies, I have no idea what the hell he is talking about.  I did work with some SAS guys at one point (we were co-located for something.)  At the time the big thing in Australia was a play called “Puppetry of the Penis.”  If you haven’t met SAS guys, they are AWESOME, and a bit out there.  But, and I cannot stress this enough, I never masturbated with anyone, not Australian or anyone else, and why would there be minors in a war zone?  That doesn’t even make sense.

The second thing about “chronic” is I actually have no memory of saying it.  I am purported to say “we were chronic over there.”  That actually sounds viable, as any Joe deployed would tell you.  But by “we” I meant the US Military in general, not me specifically.  And why would it have bearing on anything anyway?

The third thing, about permitting my men to masturbate in towers is beyond idiotic, as is the thing about doing it in all 26.  I know one guy who did accomplish that feat, and he wasn’t in my squad, and I had no authority over him.  And I didn’t know he’d done it until he announced it at the end.  No one took pornographic magazines into the towers that I am aware of, they weren’t even allowed in theater (although they were there), and we did full inspections before going out on shift.

Besides which, I was only a sergeant of the guard on towers for like 6 weeks.  And during that time there were no major attacks on the base, and certainly none that came about as a result of the troops not being adequately attentive.

None of this has ANY bearing on a copyright claim or our cases, but it is him trying to somehow embarrass me.  Well, epic fail.

 

Two other things that actually come from other documents, and then I’ll start to wrap this up:

BERNATHIAN concoction: (From a filing on 10/11/16)

No, no, he is not a licensed lawyer anymore. He has been disbarred from California, was denied entry in the Oregon bar, and as a disbarred attorney he is no longer allowed to represent claimants before the VA.

Here is the VA Accreditation of Bernath, LINK HERE.

HOWEVER, from the Federal Register:

Finally, we amended the regulation to clarify that an agent or attorney must notify VA within 30 days of any change in status in any jurisdiction in which he or she is admitted to practice. This is necessary because 38 U.S.C. 5904(a)(4) prohibits VA from recognizing an agent or attorney who has been suspended or disbarred and VA may not otherwise become aware of the suspension or disbarment until many months after the fact.

Further,

The plain language of section 5904(a)(4) prohibits VA from recognizing an individual as an agent or attorney if such individual has been suspended or disbarred by any court, bar, or Federal or State agency to which the individual was previously admitted to practice and has not been subsequently reinstated. The statute contemplates a situation in which an attorney has not been reinstated after suspension or disbarment because he or she has been deemed ineligible for reinstatement by the admitting authority.

Dan Bernath was officially disbarred on 8/28/16 and per 38 U.S.C 5904 (a)(4) he was directed to notify the Department of Veterans Affairs of this status change within 30 days. It has now been 50 days.

[ON EDIT:  It looks like he was supposed to notify them even earlier.  He was declared “Not Eligible To Practice Law in CA” on 9/28/15, which means it has now been 388 days since he was suspended, meaning he’s 358 days past due on notifying them.]

The VA helpfully states that:

Complaints regarding unlawful activities, misconduct, or incompetent representation by a VA-accredited individual may be emailed to ogcaccreditationmailbox@va.gov, faxed to (202) 273-0197, or mailed to the following address:  Department of Veterans Affairs, Office of the General Counsel (022D), 810 Vermont Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20420.  Complaints may also include information regarding an accredited individual’s suspension or disbarment by any court, bar, or Federal or State agency to which such individual was previously admitted to practice.

Now look, I could go on fact checking his nonsense for a long time here, and I’m just not going to do it. I literally have 3 ring binders FULL of stuff on him. In fact, we screen shot every single thing that he, Wittgenfeld and Cryer comment on, change or add to any of their websites. Dating all the way back. I’ve got so much evidence it would take a cement truck to transport it to the court room. But I did want to touch on two last things.   The first is how he always brags about what a great attorney he is. He’s somehow convinced Wittgenfeld that he’s winning all these motions, the court is seeing it his way, and the pot of gold is right around the corner.   Well, just to show how great an attorney Bernath is, I want to include one footnote from our recent filing, that shows just what a legal genius he is. Warning, this is dry legal stuff, but it shows how many times he’s violated the rules of procedure, and how many times the court told him to stop doing that:

See in the First Lawsuit: this Court’s Order (Doc. 19) at pp. 1-2: “For Mr. Bernath’s benefit, although he is proceeding pro se in this matter, he still must comply with the Middle District of Florida Local Rules and Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. See Loren v. Sasser, 309 F.3d 1296, 1304 (11th Cir. 2002) (noting that despite certain leniency afforded pro se parties, they must follow procedures).”; see this Court’s Order (Doc. 30) at p. 1: “A portion of Plaintiff’s Opposition and the Supplement in its entirety subsequently were ordered stricken by the Court for failure to comply with the Local Rules. Doc. 19.” . . . “FN 1 The genesis of Plaintiff’s opposition is that Mr. Mason has been subject to undisclosed disciplinary action. Mr. Mason’s Reply assures the Court that such allegations are false, and that he is not now, nor has been, subject to discipline. Doc. 27.”; see this Court’s Order (Doc. 33) at pp. 1-2: “Plaintiff neither sought nor was permitted leave to file a surreply. Plaintiff previously was cautioned that, although he is proceeding pro se, he still must comply with applicable federal and local rules.¹ Doc. 19 at 2. … Plaintiff’s surreply therefore will be stricken for failure to comply with the Local Rules. Plaintiff previously has had filings stricken by the Court for failure to comply with the Local Rules. See Doc. 19. Plaintiff therefore is cautioned that continued failure to comply with the Local Rules may result in the imposition of sanctions.” … “FN 1 In the Declaration of Daniel A. Bernath in Opposition to John Mason Appearing Pro Hav [sic] Vice, Plaintiff states, “I am a member of the California Bar, having been admitted nearly 31 years ago. I am also a member of the US District Court Bars for the Central and Northern District and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.” Doc. 14 at 4. Plaintiff therefore should not be a stranger to courts’ expectations that parties follow federal and local rules.”; see this Court’s Order (Doc. 40) at pp. 1-2: “Plaintiff repeatedly has been cautioned that, although proceeding pro se, he still is required to conform to federal and local rules. See, e.g., Doc. 19 at 2; Doc. 33 at 1-2. This now will be the third filing of Plaintiff’s that the Court has stricken for violation of the Local Rules. See also Docs. 19, 33. In the Order striking Plaintiff’s reply, filed without leave of Court, Plaintiff was “cautioned that continued failure to comply with the Local Rules may result in the imposition of sanctions.” Doc. 33 at 2. Despite the cautionary language, Plaintiff again has failed to comply with the Local Rules. The motion therefore will be stricken. Plaintiff again is cautioned that failure to comply with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and this Court’s Local Rules will result in the imposition of sanctions, up to and including the Court recommending that this matter be dismissed for repeated failure to comply with Court orders.”; see this Court’s Order (Doc. 58) at page 3, footnote 3: “Plaintiff is reminded that he initiated this lawsuit and has a duty to comply with the court orders and local rules . . . (“A district court has authority under [Fed. R. Civ. P] 41(b) to [as a sanction of last resort] dismiss actions for failure to comply with local rules.”); and, see this Court’s Order (Doc. 66) at p. 1, FN 1: “On November 23, 2015, without leave of court and in contravention to M.D. Fla. R. 3.01(c), Plaintiff filed a second response in opposition. Doc. 57. Plaintiff repeatedly has been cautioned by this Court that, although proceeding pro se, he still is required to conform to local rules. See, e.g., Doc. 40 at 1 -2; Doc. 33 at 1 -2, Doc. 19 at 2. The Court, therefore, will not consider Plaintiff’s second opposition (Doc. 57)”; and, see this Court’s Order (Doc. 84) at p. 2: “this is Plaintiff’s last warning for non-compliance with the federal and local rules; future non-compliant filings may be stricken without further warning.”

And the last thing I want to add is a full listing of all the things that Bernath is specifically claiming against me, but elsewhere he makes almost all of these claims against everyone else involved in the various cases, including the Legion. This list isn’t even exhaustive, it is just from one filing. From assassination attempts to IED coconuts to my being a hitman for MS13, the guy just specializes in coming up with Ludlumesque conspiracy theories:  [Editor’s note, I’ve slightly edited our actual document here so that you get bullets, because the formatting the other way, while accurate for filings, makes it hella hard to read in a blog post.]

• that Seavey is an agent of his employer the Legion who commands and controls a terrorist group (and then Bernath strings together a flurry of unattributed and sourceless language, falsely states that Seavey has driven three U.S. military members to suicide, and that his employer the Legion demanded he pick up the pace on tormenting U.S. military veterans) (Par. 8, 23-25, 53);
