Kansas Commission on Judicial Qualifications

301 SW Tenth Avenue

Topeka Ks 66612

This complaint is against Brenda M. Cameron regarding all of my complaints that she heard on
the December 4, 2015 meeting because she had already recused from 2 other complaints on
the same day and therefore she violated Supreme Court Rule 602(g) and Rule 2.7 and Rule
2.11 (A) of Rules Relating To Judicial Conduct.

Greetings Ethics Committee:

I would like to complain against Brenda M. Cameron of Panel A for violations of Supreme Court
Rule 602(g), Rule 2.3 Bias, Prejudice, Harassment, and Responsibility to Decide Rule 2.7 and
Disqualification Rule 2.11 (A). The member failed to properly disqualify herself from hearing the
enclosed complaints on December 4, 2015 in accordance with Rule 2.7 and 2.11 due to bias
and prejudice under Rule 2.3 because she had already recused from two other complaints that I
have included with my evidence as we". I am also part of a pending class-action lawsuit against
her in case number 15CV79P and it was a conflict of interest for her to hear any of my
complaints on the commission's meeting on December 4, 2015. Lawyer member Nancy S.
Anstaett should have been disqualified being on Panel A for the December 4, 2015 complaint
because she violated Article 3, Section 15 of Kansas Constitution which says "A Brief History of
The Commission" in 2013 Annual Report says "All members are appointed by the Supreme
Court and serve four-year terms with a twelve-year term limit". This violates Article 3, Section
15 of the Kansas Constitution because I have included a picture of her showing that she has
been a member with the commission on judicial qualifications since July of 2002. Twelve years
from her original start in 2002 would be July of 2014 which would have been up a year and a
half ago. She had no jurisdiction to be at the December 4, 2015 meeting.

The commission also violated Supreme Court Rule 602(g) because they allowed Judge Robert
Fairchild to and Brenda Cameron to participate in the above mentioned complaint on December
4, 2015 on Johnson, Smith, and Mazurek when I had a complaint filed against Robert Fairchild
on December 4, 2015 and vice chair Judge Brenda Cameron recused herself but he doesn't!
Why do I not see Judge Robert Fairchild's name as "rnrn recused" like I see "mm Judge
Cameron recused"? Judge Fairchild violated Kansas Supreme Court Rule 606(a) which says u~
judge who is a member of the commission or of the Supreme Court shall be disqualified from
participation as a member in any proceeding involving his or her own discipline, suspension,
removal or compulsory retirement". Please appoint a temporary commission to investigate this
complaint in accordance with Supreme Court Rule 602(g) since Judge Fairchild and Judge
Cameron are part of the commieeion on judicial qualifications and since I have a pending lawsuit
against Panel B judges as we" in case number 15CV79P in Crawford County.

I think it is also a conflict of interest for Nancy S. Anstaett and Honorable Brenda Cameron to
appear on Panel A together because Judge Cameron is a district judge from Olathe and Nancy
Anstaett practices in Overland Park and is a member of Rowe and Anstaett, L.L.C. They both
work in Johnson County and both work at the same Johnson County courthouse which is a
conflict of interest under Rule 2.7 and Rule 2.11 (A) as they are probably gobd acquaintances.

By Chair of Panel A Mary Thrower and Chair of Panel B Nicholas St. Peter failing to follow
Supreme Court Rule 602(g) by failing to appoint temporary commission members on my
December 4,2015 complaints, two of them have now been continued once to February 5,2014
for a lack of quorum and again for lack of quorum until April 1, 2016!!! The lack of quorum
happened because the chair of Panel A and chair of Panel B refused to follow Rule 602(g) and
that is what led to the lack of quorum at two separate meetings which violated Rules Relating to
Judicial Conduct Rule 2.7 and Rule 2.11 (A).

Supreme Court Rule 602(g) says "If the commission anticipates difficulty in discharging its
responsibilities due to the disqualification or unavailability of its members, the Supreme Court,
upon request of the chair or vice-chair of the commission, may appoint temporary commission
members to serve as specified. I think the fact that I am part of a civil class-action lawsuit in
case number 15CV79P in Crawford County against Panel A and Panel B would have been
evidence of a need for a disqualification by all the judges of Panel A and Panel B in accordance
with Rule 2.7 Responsibility to Decide and Rule 2.11 (A) Disqualification.

Please appoint a temporary commission in accordance with Supreme Court Rule 602(g) since
Judges Robert Fairchild and Brenda Cameron should have recused and Nancy Anstaett should
been disqualified permanently due to 12 year limit term and Nicholas St. Peter's failed to uphold
Rule 602(g) along with Mary Thrower.

I also think it was a violation of for Judge Cameron to hear docket numbers 1271 and 1278 and
be the only judge to recuse herself from other complaints on December 4, 2015 from my
. complaint on Judges Loy, Wachter, Lori Fleming, Robert Fleming, Jack, Lynch, Smith, and
Sanders. She was biased and prejudiced against me for recusing her on other complaints and
therefore she sh6uld have recused from docket numbers 1270 in the matter of Lori Fleming and
1278 in the matter of Kurt Loy on December 4, 2015 and so should have Judge Robert
Fairchild. All of those complains on December 4, 2015 need to be reheard without Fairchild and
Cameron since they were biased and prejudice against me for all complaints on December 4,
2015.

Please show me the supreme court rule that says you can only complain on one judge at a time.
I am just curious because it would seem that your committee has violated this rule in 2014 since
you have allowed me to make several complaints on judges in one complaint. This reflects
negatively on Nicholas St. Peter and Mary Thrower since they are the chairs on Panel A and
Panel B and that is why there needs to be an unbiased committee hearing on this complaint in
accordance with Kansas Supreme Court Rule 602(g) since three members of Panel A had no
jurisdiction to hear the complaint on Johnson, Smith, and Mazurek and that is why that
complaint from December 4, 2015 needs to be reheard without unbiased judges Brenda
Cameron and Robert Fairchild
Please go ahead and assign this complaint to a separate committee under Supreme Court Rule
602(g) since I have not seen an amended court rule by the Kansas Legislature stating where
anyone must only complain on one judge at a time like Mary Thrower the chair informed me.

Please bring in a temporary commission when there are conflict of interest issues to avoid lack
of quorum in the future since this has happened twice now. The December 4, 2015 meeting and
the February 5, 2015 meeting have now been continued until April 1, 2016 which was totally
unnecessary.
