8 EXHIBITS:______
9 ______), Harold Kuehns 'Drinking Buddy', Chris Arabia, 10 who refused to perfect Peter J. Helfrich's appeal (SEE 11
12 EXHIBIT:______), and lastly, David Neely, who once
13 again without any repercussions from Judge Wanker was allowed to 14
15 refuse a direct order of the court to perfect Peter J.
16 Helfrich's appeal (SEE EXHIBIT:______). Now 17 that Plaintiff is pursuing a civil matter before the court in 18 19 which crimes were committed, Plaintiff is being unlawfully 20 refused the Legal right to do so, by Judge Wanker; thus 21
22 committing Obstruction of Justice, Misprision of Felony , under
23 18 USC 4 (SEE POINTS AND AUTHORITIES; as well as 24

[Summary of pleading] - 2 THE HONORABLE SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA
IN AND FOR CARSON CITY ARGUMENT IN SUPPORT OF WRIT OF MANDAMUS 1 2 To better enlighten one of the history of obvious abuses of 3 discretion and authority, Judge Wanker's bias, and refusal to 4
5 follow Federal, State and Constitutional law, a brief history of
6 these two parties 'relationship' / 'history' should add merit to 7
8 this request.

26 Honorable Judge Wanker for the sole purpose of perfecting 27 (CURRENTLY, FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS MANDAMUS 'PLAINTIFF'; NOT 28
29 'DEFENDANT') Defendant's already scripted appeal, to which Judge
30
31
32
[Summary of pleading] - 3 THE HONORABLE SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA
IN AND FOR CARSON CITY Wanker has already commended Defendant PUBLICALLY IN COURT / ON 1 2 VIDEO for scripting. (SEE EXHIBITS:______) 3 On 8-27-2012, at approximately 10:37 am – 11am, David Neely 4
5 Esq. & Defendant met to discuss said aforementioned appeal brief
6 in a meeting room near the Justice Court area, located at the 7
8 fifth Judicial Court of NYE County, located on East Basin Ave.
9 Mr. Neely refused to perfect Defendant's appeal. Mr. Neely, 10 with numerous expletives laden in his responses said such things 11
12 to Defendant as: “You have absolutely no fucking clue about the
13 laws; how to write an appeal, nor do you have grounds for an 14
15 appeal! I've been doing Domestic Battery cases for years. CRAZY
16 BITCHES get their asses kicked all the fucking time DUDE! All 17 the fucking time, I'm telling ya; I see these nut case bitches, 18 19 and I've read your appeal... SHE IS A FUCKING NUT JOB FOR SURE!”. 20 Mr. Neely wanted Defendant in essence to shred Defendant's 21
22 appeal brief, metaphorically burn it and basically go home and
23 give up. His only “angle” was appealing on the grounds of 24
25 “Jurisdiction”, as he put it, yet after skimming the brief /
26 transcripts, he said that “angle” was not going to work. 27 If this is the level of “Quality” indigent Defendant's are 28
29 assigned regarding “Defense”, this experience once again (After
30 the mentally insane, “off his meds” Harold Kuehn (SEE Exhibit: 31
32
[Summary of pleading] - 4 THE HONORABLE SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA
IN AND FOR CARSON CITY B; Colony insurance vs. Harold Kuehn); his drinking buddy “Chris 1 2 Arabia” metaphorically took off on his 'Magic Carpet' as soon as 3 he realized Defendant was another victim of friend, Kuehn; and 4
5 now a man {Neely} who has yet to take a case to trial since bell
6 bottoms were in style {See Exhibit C}) proves Defendant's best 7
8 chance for a proper appeal is once again in his own hands; and
9 gladly so. 10

12
13 ARGUMENT 14
15 The obvious patterns of biased, Obstructions of Justice,
16 partiality, added to the fact over 50 Plaintiffs currently 17 seeking relief (potentially thousands after the Department of 18
19 Justice finishes its investigations) by means of a Qui Tam suit
20 vs. Judge Wanker, Judge Brisebill, Judge Jasperson, Judge Lane, 21
22 (SEE EXHIBITS:______) enforce a pattern of
23 misconduct by the entire class of corrupt Judges that arrogantly 24 believe “What happens in Pahrump is by their will, and will stay 25 26 in Pahrump”. 27 Plaintiff has the Constitutional / LEGAL right to appeal 28
29 (as well as holding onto the legitimate right to pursue a civil
30 matter in a proper court 'Proceeding as Poor', in regards to the 31
32
[Summary of pleading] - 5 THE HONORABLE SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA
IN AND FOR CARSON CITY essence behind this Mandamus) Pro Se In Forma Pauperis, as is 1 2 his prayer (Faretta v. California: 422 U.S., 806, 95 S. Ct 2525, 3 45 L Ed. 2D 562, 1975 U.S. LEXIS 83 (1975)). Plaintiff's earned 4
5 distaste for such a (in)breed in NYE County of over paid, over
6 regarded Judas parasites is well noted, well proven and well 7
8 documented (See Exhibits:______, Letters From / and
9 to / Department of Justice). Given the circumstances, Peter J. 10 Helfrich requests his Constitutional right to have Judge 11
12 Wanker's unjust ruling / DENIAL of In Forma Pauperis overturned
13 by this Honorable Court, and allow Justice to be served, by 14
15 recusing her from CASE NO.: CR-34173, and having an Honorable
16 Judge from Clark County reside over CASE NO.: CR-34173. 17

22 POINTS AND AUTHORITIES
23 RULE 39. PROCEEDINGS IN FORMA PAUPERIS 24
25 1. A party seeking to proceed in forma pauperis shall file a
26 motion for leave to do so,
27 together with the party's notarized affidavit or declaration (in
28 compliance with 28 U. S.
29 C. §1746 ) in the form prescribed by the Federal Rules of
30 Appellate Procedure, Form 4.
31
32
[Summary of pleading] - 6 THE HONORABLE SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA
IN AND FOR CARSON CITY
1 See 28 U. S. C. §1915 . The motion shall state whether leave to
2 proceed in forma
3 pauperis was sought in any other court and, if so, whether leave
4 was granted. If the
5 United States district court or the United States court of
6 appeals has appointed
7 counsel under the Criminal Justice Act, see 18 U. S. C. §3006A ,
8 or under any other
9 applicable federal statute, no affidavit or declaration is
10 required, but the motion shall
11 cite the statute under which counsel was appointed.
12 2. If leave to proceed in forma pauperis is sought for the
13 purpose of filing a document,
14 the motion, and an affidavit or declaration if required, shall
15 be filed together with that
16 document and shall comply in every respect with Rule 21. As
17 provided in that Rule, it
18 suffices to file an original and 10 copies, unless the party is
19 an inmate confined in an
20 institution and is not represented by counsel, in which case the
21 original, alone,
22 suffices. A copy of the motion, and affidavit or declaration if
23 required, shall precede and
24 be attached to each copy of the accompanying document.
25 3. Except when these Rules expressly provide that a document
26 shall be prepared as
27 required by Rule 33.1, every document presented by a party
28 proceeding under this
29 Rule shall be prepared as required by Rule 33.2 (unless such
30 preparation is
31
32
[Summary of pleading] - 7 THE HONORABLE SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA
IN AND FOR CARSON CITY
1 impossible). Every document shall be legible. While making due
2 allowance for any case
3 presented under this Rule by a person appearing pro se, the
4 Clerk will not file any
5 document if it does not comply with the substance of these Rules
6 or is jurisdictionally
7 out of time.
8 4. When the documents required by paragraphs 1 and 2 of this
9 Rule are presented to
10 the Clerk, accompanied by proof of service as required by Rule
11 29, they will be placed
12 on the docket without the payment of a docket fee or any other
13 fee.
14 5. The respondent or appellee in a case filed in forma pauperis
15 shall respond in the
16 same manner and within the same time as in any other case of the
17 same nature,
18 except that the filing of an original and 10 copies of a
19 response prepared as required
20 by Rule 33.2, with proof of service as required by Rule 29,
21 suffices. The respondent or
22 appellee may challenge the grounds for the motion for leave to
23 proceed in forma
24 pauperis in a separate document or in the response itself.
25 6. Whenever the Court appoints counsel for an indigent party in
26 a case set for oral
27 argument, the briefs on the merits submitted by that counsel,
28 unless otherwise
29 requested, shall be prepared under the Clerk's supervision. The
30 Clerk also will
31
32
[Summary of pleading] - 8 THE HONORABLE SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA
IN AND FOR CARSON CITY
1 reimburse appointed counsel for any necessary travel expenses to
2 Washington, D. C.,
3 and return in connection with the argument.
4 7. In a case in which certiorari has been granted, probable
5 jurisdiction noted, or
6 consideration of jurisdiction postponed, this Court may appoint
7 counsel to represent a
8 party financially unable to afford an attorney to the extent
9 authorized by the Criminal
10 Justice Act of 1964, 18 U. S. C. §3006A, or by any other
11 applicable federal statute.
12 8. If satisfied that a petition for a writ of certiorari,
13 jurisdictional statement, or petition for
14 an extraordinary writ is frivolous or malicious, the Court may
15 deny leave to proceed in
16 forma pauperis.
