"A New Door Can't Open Until an Old Door Is Closed" To Save Her Health and move in a more responsive Direction, Caryl Leventhal Leaves the Judicial Process and drops Appeal in Federal Court. Attempts to warn elected officials of USDOJ INS "terrorist friendly" policies |

In Spite of testimony in Caryl Leventhal's suit showing US Department of Justice Immigration and Naturalization Service mistreatment to silence this whistleblower at all costs by removing her from her position, liability could not be found on the limited bases in this type of suit.
It was
determined that the brutal actions of USDOJ personnel to silence her
whistleblowing activities through sadistic bigotry were
Contrary to what most of us have seen on
television, a successful appeal can only be mounted if an attorney can
demonstrate significant "PROCEDURAL" errors on the part of the
judge. This is an expensive and difficult task, even with the most
experienced of Appeals lawyers. It can also prove very stressful for
someone like Caryl who has Multiple Sclerosis. In addition, her five year
battle for a good will apology has left her in a fragile state. A
Ms. Leventhal determines that evidence of cruelty, on-site criminal behavior and terrorist friendly processing of incomplete paperwork in the Immigration and Naturalization Service is now part of depositions (but not trial testimony). It is now time to seek help from a new administration. Caryl's letter sent to her appeals lawyer requesting dismissal of her Appeal. THE UNANSWERED
QUESTIONS: Why
did judge Shira Scheindlin keep from the jury and court record, evidence and
Why did Judge Shira Scheindlin refuse to allow Caryl Leventhal a short time to secure a new attorney when the one she had was issued a letter of admonition by the courts on September 26, 2000 (the day he was to represent Caryl Leventhal in court concerning her complaint against the US Department of Justice) "for conduct that adversely reflects on his fitness as a lawyer." (On January 6, 2004, Caryl's former lawyer will be suspended from practicing law under charges of "conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit or misrepresentation." Why did Eric B. Fisher, Deputy US Attorney place winning a case over information from this whistleblower that could warn the American people of terrorism? Why did Alan R. Kaufman, Chief of the US Attorney's (Southern District) Criminal Division threaten The Leventhal family with arrest and prosecution if they didn't censor this website to place the US Department of Justice in a better light? Why are they working to place America at risk?

Re: Caryl Leventhal v. Janet Reno Dear Mr. Levy, My husband Michael has just informed me that the Federal Court of Appeals would like to schedule a meeting between our side and the US Attorney on January 24, 2001 for mediation and possible settlement. As Michael wrote you in December 2000 ... to me, the election of George Bush as President means the washing away of the Janet Reno corruption in the US Department of Justice and a new slate for potential decency. With new and hopefully cleaner leadership in the US Department of Justice, I do not want legal action against Janet Reno dragged into this new administration. At this time, I do not hold the incoming Attorney General responsible for the corruption and cover-up that caused my brutalization while employed by the Immigration & Naturalization Service. After battling corruption in INS 26 Federal Plaza in 1995-1996, I do not want them held party to the ensuing four year Administrative Complaint policy of obstruction, death threat and intimidation that has left me disabled. As such, please accept this letter as my formal request for DISMISSAL OF MY APPEAL. For years, I’ve told everyone who would listen that this matter need not go to federal court. I just wanted a statement that I was treated unfairly as a sign of good will. What I received were threats and terror in the hopes of shutting me up. I am glad that the federal judicial process has ended. It is ill suited for securing justice of the kind I seek. It is a place where people of power and wealth fight with other people of power and wealth. It is a place where the US Attorney’s Office will expend incredible sums of money to silence an aggrieved citizen rather than attempt reconciliation. It is a place where people of ego and pride would prefer to crush, rather than be compassionate and just. This is not my world. It is only one that can further degrade my health and increase my pain. I must be free of it to survive.
Sincerely,
Caryl Ball Leventhal
