Obama ordered to court in ‘birther’ suit

January 23rd, 2012, 4:42 pm · · posted by Martin Wisckol, Politics reporter

Laguna Niguel attorney Orly Taitz appears to have scored a rare victory in her battle to prove President Barack Obama is not a natural-born citizen and so is ineligible to hold office.

A Georgia judge has refused to quash a subpoena requiring Obama to show up at a Thursday hearing of a lawsuit calling for the president to be blocked from appearing on that state’s March primary ballot, according to both the McClatchy and Associated Press wire services.

“This will be 100 times bigger than Watergate,” Taitz told McClatchy. “There are high ranking judges and federal officials who are involved in this cover up. The ramifications of this trial will be enormous.”

An Obama campaign aide told the Associated Press that any attempt to involve the president personally will fail and such complaints around the country have no merit.

Taitz has filed Obama birthplace suits throughout the country. All have been thrown out or are pending.

The hearing is set for Thursday before an administrative judge. Deputy Chief Judge Michael Malihi on Friday denied the motion by the president’s lawyer to quash the subpoena. The Office of State Administrative Hearings handles disputes between the public and state agencies.

Anybody out there think Obama will actually show up?

Obama attorney to boycott ‘birther’ hearing

Scoffing at a judge’s call for Barack Obama to appear in court Thursday, Obama attorney Michael Jablonski says that not only will the president not be on hand but neither will Jablonski.

The lawsuit, in which several Georgia voters are represented by Laguna Niguel attorney Orly Taitz, calls for Obama to be removed from Georgia’s March 6 primary ballot on the grounds that he doesn’t meet the requirement of being a natural-born citizen.

Jablonski wrote Georgia’s secretary of state to intervene and dismiss the suit.

“All issues were presented to your hearing officer – the clear-cut decision to be on the merits, and the flagrantly unethical and unprofessional conduct of counsel – and he has allowed the plaintiffs’ counsel to run amok,” Jablonski wrote. “He has not even addressed these issues—choosing to ignore them.

“We await your taking the requested action, and as we do so, we will, of course, suspend further participation in these proceedings, including the hearing scheduled for January 26.”

Taitz responded promptly on her blog.

“He is acting like a 5-year-old brat, saying ‘I am afraid of Orly, I want the secretary of state of Georgia to act like my mommy and protect me from Orly,’” she wrote. “Some leader of a free world.”

On Friday, Taitz’s string of failed lawsuits challenging Obama’s birth status was interrupted by a rare – if incremental – courtroom victory when Deputy Chief Judge Michael Malihi dismissed Jablonski’s request to quash Taitz’s subpoena to have Obama appear.

Malihi wrote that Obama’s court filings fail to show why his attendance would be “unreasonable or oppressive” or why his testimony would be “irrelevant, immaterial or cumulative.”

The White House has announced that Obama would be amid a campaign swing through several states on Thursday. Georgia is not among the states listed.

The state Democratic Party also announced it would boycott the hearing.

“They can tilt at windmills on their own,” said state party spokesman Eric Gray, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution‘s Jim Galloway.
