Any soul living or has a legal interest in Queens County, NYC should take interest.

Myself and my daughter are the 2nd and 3rd great-grandchildren of a victim of the Holocaust. 

Good fathers are just as important as good mothers. Look at what this Court system has done to a former President; political ideologies aside, what do you think it’s capable of doing to innocent parents??

The NYS Queens County Supreme Court’s judiciary is in need of reform and Governor Kathy Hochul and Chief Judge Rowan D. Wilson, together with the NYS Commission On Judicial Conduct needs to institute reforms on the bias, racial, ethical, gender bias, religious and marital discrimination which has become engrained into the fabric of the judiciary of the Queens County Supreme Court, 88-11 Sutphin Blvd., Jamaica, NY. 

On behalf of my wonderful daughter, the great-great granddaughter of an NYPD Captain, an immigrant from Ireland but realized the American dream to who’s legacy I will never allow to die, I request that this case be transferred to New York County Supreme Court without delay. The Queens Supreme Court is too corrupted and stained to ruin a straight A student, miraculously intelligent 9 year old’s life and be allowed to observe her religious beliefs without interference. 

Over the course of the past near 8 years, I have been subjected to repeated, unrelenting and indisputable violations of NYS laws, the ethical standards of the judiciary and discriminated against for being a male, physically disabled father. 

As the case record will show, I’ve been forced to file Article 78 lawsuits against Justices Viscovich, McGowan and Heitner. Never, in the near 200 years my family have been residents of the City of New York, have I ever dreamed of the horrors of the Queens County Supreme Court. 

This is a long, painful story which began in 2016, when my wife kidnapped my 2 year old daughter to whom I was the stay at home parent, provider and wonderful caregiver to. I awoke to an email from my wife that she left me and took my child, to whom I personally raised, love, cared for day in and day out, to an unknown address or location. In hindsight, I should have called the authorities but didn’t want my little girl involved with the NYPD. 

Fast forward, my wife filed for divorce in Queens County Supreme Court, despite the fact that we’ve been legal, tax paying residents of Pennsylvania for just about 13 years and the case was assigned to Justice William Viscovich. As a physically disabled American, I participated in the first hearing via telephone. When the hearing ended, I didn’t disconnect, and listened to NYS Supreme Court Justice Viscovich verbally rant, like a vindictive child and as demonstrated in previous lawsuits against him for his extrajudicial bias and rulings, about how he going, literally to discriminate against me, mocked my disability and virtually decided the case without any evidence, hearing or trial to his staff, even stating that he wanted to “lock (me) up”. His behavior and statements are tantamount to the level of abuse that exists within the Queens County Supreme Court’s Judiciary and should not be permitted to permeate the rights of any individual before this Court; whether it be a divorce/custody matter (such as this matter) to a poor soul facing criminal charges. A judiciary is supposed to be an independent arm of our government; not an uncontrolled, irrational, biased and dangerous institution that is the judiciary of the Queens County Supreme Court. This lead rant by Viscovich led to him recusing himself on the record following an Article 78 lawsuit. The case was then assigned to his cohort in judicial misconduct, Justice Margaret McGowan (to wit a separate petition was filed on change.org for her removal by an individual that has no association with me). (https://www.change.org/p/why-n-y-must-remove-supreme-court-judge-margaret-mcgowan-from-bench And the case lingered on through the pandemic wherein she made assurances and promises to me on the record, but allowed my wife to emotionally abuse my daughter; abandoning her in hotel rooms while her and one of her several paramours conducted whatever adults do in a separate room from a 3-4 year old little girl. Following years of her bias and discrimination, McGowan recused herself. And needless to say more as to the bias and incestous nature of the Queens County Supreme Court, the case was assigned to McGowan’s former law clerk, Maureen Heitner, whom has not only facilitated the years of bias and abuse in this case, but demanded that I, a hospital bed bound father appear physically for the first time in 7 years in Court for a trial; knowing full-well that I cannot afford counsel, knowing I’m paralyzed and live 3 hours from the Courtroom in a different state and am legally unable to drive or represent myself because of my medical treatment. 

The Queens County Supreme Court demands the attention of the media, the Governor and Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals in an apolitical manner to reform the systemic Constitutional abuses and repeated violations of law committed against a single father that’s done nothing but support his daughter, raise her, attend daddy-daughter dances while in a wheelchair, participate in every graduation ceremony, pays her tuition in addition to 300% more in monthly financial support that the Court could ever order me to pay, this on top of never being ordered to do so by the Court. 

I would expect the level of justice received from the Justices of the Queens County Supreme Court as if we were in 2024, not 1824.

Significant and substantial reforms are in order that goes beyond the nauseating political system of NYS for the Justices in the Queens County Supreme Court. We all have a Constitutional right to due process, and this Court, despite being in the greatest City in the world, is nothing but a stain on the fabric of our justice system.

I am a disabled father and an American that has rights just like everyone else. Just because I use a wheelchair shouldn’t be an impediment to continuing to be a good father.

Update: Viscovich continues his abuse, unabated; now reported to the FBI!

UPDATE 1/24/25: A New Version of Viscovich 

Today, a pro-se father whom has been religiously abused by this Court for no reason had no less than 33 objections ignored. I was denied my right to a jury trial by Queens Supreme latest abuser of the Constitution, JSC Sandra Munoz. After my daughter’s attorney made his statement that my daughter informed him what “a loving and caring father” I am; JSC Munoz seems to be drawn down the path of judicial abuse, gender bias and complete ignorance of the law.

A deep breath was needed after what should have been a simple conference; but I will quote a handful of her violations of state and federal law:

• “I have no right to a jury trial”, to dispute the basis of my divorce.
• ”I have no right to the return of premarital jewelry (likely sold in violation of the automatic order). 

I could go on, but I can assure you this will go on to the Appellate Division. 

Sad, abusive and pathetic for what I feel is the greatest City in the world. I wanted to say I felt like I was in North Korea. 

I pity people who have to face these bullies; but we have an appeals system. FEDERAL, and state. 

UPDATE: 3/10/25

Munoz, whom was recommended against by the NYC Bar Association Appointed Unregistered Attorney, whom her Chambers Staff was employed by and when he was confronted, he withdrew his representation. And this insanity carries on….

 

 

 

After another Justice recuses herself, Maureen Heitner; a JSC Sandra Munoz was appointed. According to the Queens Daily Eagle, the NYC Bar Association recommended AGAINST her appointment. No records online that I can find that the State appointed her. 

Despicable behavior to say it politely. And It just keeps carrying on….A surrealistic nightmare.
