Michael Carrico owned a bar and restaurant across the street from the Bankruptcy Court. When he contracted AIDS, in 1996, he filed for relief in the Bankruptcy Court, initially under Chapter 13 then later converted to Chapter 7. Michael tried to sell his liquor license; the Trustee lied to Judge Caldwell who believed him then seized the money the buyer had paid his attorney to acquire the license leaving the Trustee with the license and the buyer's money.

The 5th Amendment to the U. S. Constitution is inapplicable in Judge Caldwell's courtroom as the couple found out 5 years later. Michael tried to prove in the District Court that Judge Caldwell is a crook but the District Court judge threw out the case without hearing any evidence. Then Judge Caldwell disqualified Michael's attorney and left him without representation.

This makes no sense.

I am a bankruptcy attorney in California. Your report makes absolutely now sense. The trustee lied to the judge about the liquor license? What did he lie about?

If the debtor owned the liquor license at the time he converted to Chapter 7, it wasn't his license to sell. It belonged to the Trustee as part of the bankruptcyh estate for payment to the creditors. That is what the trustee does: sells off nonexempt assets and pays creditors. It sounds like the debtor was improperly trying to keep money away from his creditors.

The rest of your report also makes no sense. You can't sue a judge for doing his/her job.
