My Opposition to FTB’s Motion for Sanctions Dated 09-01-2021 and My Request for Sanctions

On September 1, 2021, FTB filed a Motion for Sanctions against me in a blatant attack of retaliation, harassment and obstruction of justice.

On March 7, 2021, I filed my Opposition to their Motion for Sanctions and my own request for sanctions against FTB for:

  • Violation of Code Civ. Proc., §128.5 and §128.7(b): Motion is Frivolous (page 30)
  • Violation of CA Rules of the Court 1.201: Failure to Redact Personal Information (page 32)
  • Violation of CRC 3.1348: Failure to Provide Discovery (page 39)
  • Chelsea Hubbard: Perjury, Withholding Evidence and Improper Redactions (page 40) 
  • Keith Swank: Perjury and Failure to Furnish Information (page 53)
  • Grace LeBleu: False Statements and Improper Redactions (page 59)

I Have Filed a Bond/Insurance Claim Against Anna Barsegyan and Grace LeBleu

I found out about a group called Bonds For The Win that is having success fighting government corruption in school districts. A child was harmed by the mask mandate. The mom found out that all government employees are required by federal law to be bonded. If that employee/department does something harmful, the person harmed can file a claim against their bond(s). Usually, if a claim is paid, the bond company will revoke the bond and the employee(s) will be forced to resign. Using the bond claim strategy, this mom was able to get the mask mandate removed from her district. Many other parents followed suit and tried it with their own school boards, and many have also been successful.

Since my husband and I were harmed by two government employees, I decided to give filing a bond claim a try, too.

Bar Complaint Filed Against Deputy Attorney General Anna Barsegyan

On December 19, 2022, I filed a Bar Complaint against against Deputy Attorney General Anna Barsegyan where I requested that she be disbarred. Here is a quick summary of the most egregious of the allegations in the Bar Complaint. The evidence that I included to substantiate the allegations was the second Federal Criminal Complaint that I filed against her, all the evidence for the FCC, and the DOJ email chain.

I believe that Anna Barsegyan crossed the line from representing her client into actively participating in her client’s criminal cover-up. To accomplish this cover up, she used an assortment of unlawful tactics, including Harassment, Retaliation, Violation of Rights, Abuse of the Court System, and Obstruction of Justice. In doing so, she repeatedly violated the American Bar Association rules 8.4 (a), (c) and (g).

Eleven (11) Requests for FTB’s 2022 Annual Taxpayer Bill of Rights Meeting 

Every year, the Franchise Tax Board hosts the Annual Taxpayer Bill of Rights Meeting, where constituents can make suggestions on how to change tax law and/or FTB policy and procedure to improve the system. FTB asks that you send them a written Request in advance, but it is not required; verbal Requests are accepted. Whether or not people can make a written request without speaking at the meeting is questionable. FTB let me do so in 2017, but others have told me FTB says that is not allowed.

Below is the written submission that I sent to FTB for the 2022 meeting. I participated in the meeting remotely; here is the video that I made of myself giving the speech.

Here is the text of the speech, which is shorter than written submission. The video of the full meeting is here, and I spoke from 14:35 – 19:45.

Hello Taxpayer Advocate Staff:

Legislative Change Request #3 for 2023 — Repeal R&TC 19179(c)(2)

The legislative year starts at the beginning of September. From September to December, each legislator decides what they want to introduce for the next year. Below is a Legislative Request that I sent for the 2023 session.

November 29, 2022

Dear Governor Newsom Staff, GovOps Staff, Senate Governance and Finance Committee Members and Staff, Assembly Committee on Revenue and Taxation Members and Staff, and FTB Legislative Staff:

I request that you repeal Revenue and Tax Code 19179(c)(2) as this law is a violation of the California and US Constitutions. This law allows the Franchise Tax Board (FTB) to penalize a taxpayer $5,000 for exercising their right to Protest. This law directly violates R&TC Sections 21010 and 20102,  which guarantees the Right to Protest as a part of the California Taxpayer Bill of Rights. It is unconscionable that a law that allows the taxation agency to punish someone for exercising their rights was enacted in the first place. 

This issue goes beyond civil rights. The Franchise Tax Board sends notices threatening that the Taxpayer will be assessed a penalty of $5,000 if the Taxpayer does not withdraw his Protest or alter his return as preferred by the bureau. These coercive threats of penalty violate multiple federal criminal codes, including 18 USC §1512, Tampering with a witness; 18 USC §872 and §1951(b), Extortion; 18 USC §876 and §1341, Mailing threatening communications.

Legislative Change Request #1 for 2023: Close the Married Loophole

The legislative year starts at the beginning of September. From September to December, each legislator decides what they want to introduce for the next year. Below is a Legislative Request that I sent for the 2023 session.

November 29, 2022

Dear Governor Newsom Staff, GovOps Staff, Senate Governance and Finance Committee Members and Staff, Assembly Committee on Revenue and Taxation Members and Staff, and FTB Legislative Staff:

I request that you immediately change California State law to recognize married couples as one tax entity in accordance with the guidelines set forth by the IRS. 

The IRS treats married couples as a single taxpaying entity from the moment the couple notifies IRS of marriage until the couple notifies IRS that the marital status has changed. However, FTB considers all individuals as unmarried. Each year, after a married couple files that year’s return, FTB updates their internal records with proper marital status for only that particular year. I believe that: 

1. FTB utilizes this loophole in the system in order to falsely impose penalties and fees via policy and procedure violations

2 FTB utilizes this loophole to unlawfully enrich themselves by demanding extra additional tax liability and penalty payments above and beyond what FTB knows — by its own records — is actually owed. 

3. This policy violates the 14th Amendment of the Constitution

The Colossal Criminal Conspiracy Behind the IRS – The Penalty Scam by Roger (Buck) Knipp

Roger (Buck) Knipp wrote a book a while ago called The Colossal Criminal Conspiracy Behind the IRS – The Penalty Scam. He has just released an updated version of his book with a new section on the corruption at the California Franchise Tax Board.

Here is the blurb: “IRS” and “FTB” fraudulently “assess” $5,000 penalties in response to almost any return or document that they disfavor or don’t understand, and more if the target is married or tries to explain. Ironically, there are no enacted code sections or regulations permitting “frivolous submission” penalties on the average American. With the help of professional researchers and 6 years in law school, the author was ultimately able to penetrate the corruption and expose the Grand Conspiracy. The 75-page Verified Criminal Complaint in the book explains the actual written law and condemns bureau employees who unlawfully impose the penalty scam. Discover how victims are pushing back against the California FTB. Keep your liberty, rights, and property by fighting back with the words of the government’s own laws. Don’t read this book if penalty notices are welcome in your mailbox. There is a large new section on the FTB and a California criminal complaint added.

This book lays out the guidelines that we are using for our Federal Criminal Complaints. Order your copy from The Bookpatch.

Ten (10) Requests for 2021 Annual Taxpayer Bill of Rights Meeting

This year’s Franchise Tax Board Annual Taxpayers Bill of Rights Meeting was held online on Thursday, December 2, 2021. Here is the five-minute speech that I made.

The full video of the 1+ hour meeting is here.

FTB prefers, but does not require, that you submit the requests in writing prior to the meeting so they know what to expect. There is no limit to how long a written submission can be, so my written submission was much longer and more detailed than the speech was.

My First Federal Criminal Complaint is Filed!

*Note: This post is in the middle of being reformatted. Please excuse the odd appearance.

I have filed the first in a series of Federal Criminal Complaints against assorted FTB staff for their various crimes. I believe that the majority of staff at FTB are good people “who are just doing their jobs.” Unfortunately, these job duties include bona-fide crimes. I believe that FTB staff will remain complicit until they are held personally accountable for their unlawful behaviors. The “just doing my job” argument is not allowed in court.

This Federal Criminal Complaint is against Carrey Burton-Beilby and Alexis Bear, agents in FTB’s Collections Department, who each directed me to send FTB more money than the bill stated was due, then falsified FTB’s internal accounting records to make it look like that higher amount of money was the total that was always due.
