Former Los Angeles Superior Court Judge David S. Wesley has destroyed many Black lives while holding judicial offices illegally.  He started as a hearing judge for the State Bar of California from 1993 to 1995 while registered as an inactive attorney. According to the State Bar of California, no records or writings exist that justify the appointment of David Wesley as a hearing judge by either the California Supreme Court or the California Senate Committee on Rules. Neither are there any records that indicate he was evaluated according to law by the Applicant Evaluation Nomination Committee for the administrative judgeship. This means David Wesley oversaw and issued decisions concerning the discipline and disbarment of licensed attorneys at taxpayer expense without legal qualification. Although all State Bar hearing judges go on inactive status while serving as hearing judge, they only do so after they have been legally evaluated and nominated by either the Supreme Court of California or the Senate Committee on Rules.  What did David Wesley have to hide and who helped him hide it?

After working as a State Bar hearing judge and while remaining inactive, David Wesley was hired as a Commissioner of the Los Angeles Superior Court from 1995 to 1997. Court Commissioners conduct hearings on various legal matters including Child Support, Civil, Criminal, Family Law, Juvenile, Probate, Small Claims and Traffic. Court Commissioners hear testimony from witnesses and, upon agreement of the parties, sit as a Judge Pro Tempore. Court Commissioners may be assigned to sit in any of the Court facilities in Los Angeles County.

The candidacy requirements for Court Commissioners include the submission of a copy of your California State Bar card showing active status. Each candidate is to be evaluated by the Court Commissioner Selection Committee. The State Bar records list Wesley as inactive from 1995 to 1997. It’s public record. How then could his application include a State Bar card showing active status? And, how did he overcome the scrutiny and appointment of the Court Commissioner Selection Committee while an inactive attorney?

In addition to his questionable assignments as State Bar hearing judge and Court Commissioner, his appointment to the bench as Los Angeles Superior Court judge is ominous. No governmental entity has records of any appointment of David Wesley by election, by the governor or the California Supreme Court, yet he enjoyed a full and celebrated career as a Los Angeles Superior Court judge in both criminal and civil courts after illegally annihilating the professional lives of licensed attorneys while he was a State Bar hearing judge. This means David Wesley was allowed to sit as a celebrated Los Angeles Superior Court judge (he even rose to become the presiding judge) and issued criminal sentencing orders, civil judgments and other decisions which are invalid and should be vacated because he was never legally qualified to wear a black robe.

In 1995, after presiding over a disciplinary hearing, David Wesley recommended my disbarment. He wrote a very personal, vindictive, inaccurate and vitriolic decision that was posted on the internet for years as an intentional plan to destroy any future professional or personal endeavors.  His decision was later adopted by the California Supreme Court and remained on the State Bar website until 2019 when I began to inquire about the authenticity of his appointment. I have demanded reinstatement from the State Bar of California, and they have refused my request. My disbarment order from the California Supreme Court as well as all orders issued by David Wesley whether in the State Bar of California or the Los Angeles Superior Court are void and must be vacated.
