From the Editor: The Brownsville Herald reported that Attorney Nat C. Perez was finally successful in getting Judge Cornejo-Lopez recused from the murder trial of Ernie Hernandez relative Aroldo Cadriel. Perez argued that Cornejo-Lopez held a bias against Cadriel that would interfere with his right of a fair trial. Initially, Perez claimed that the bias was based on the attorney's refusal to buy Girl Scout cookies from Cornejo-Lopez' daughter. Below is the MMB story from August 25, 2012:
Ernie's In-Law Wants Cornejo-Lopez Recused Over Girl Scout Cookie Vindictiveness
Aroldo Cadriel |
It may not be a coordinated family effort to denigrate or ruin the reputation of 404th District Judge Cornejo-Lopez by the Hernandez-Cadriel families, but it seems so.
The latest verbal missile aimed at Lopez comes from the lawyer representing Ernie's brother-in-law Aroldo Cadriel in a murder case, Nat Perez.
Mr. Perez claims in a Brownsville Herald article by Jacqueline Armendariz that his refusal to buy girl scout cookies from Cornejo-Lopez resulted in banishment from Cornejo-Lopez' courtroom. Left unexplained was why Cornejo-Lopez wasn't banning Perez now. Instead, it is Perez who is trying to get Cornejo-Lopez recused from hearing the case.

As Perez explains in his motion, when Judge Cornejo-Lopez saw him in the halls of the courthouse, she directed him to see her court coordinator about a matter. Perez complied, only to be dunned by the coordinator to buy Girl Scout cookies being credited as sold by Cornejo-Lopez' daughter. With Perez refusal of purchase came harsh reprisals in the courtroom according to Perez, stating that on three occasions Cornejo-Lopez prevented him from practicing his craft in her courtroom:
"This conduct is an open, blatant and obvious indication of Judge Elia Cornejo-Lopez's animosity, dislike and disdain for counsel and her desire to not have counsel practice in her court before her, possibly exacerbated by his refusal to purchase a case of Girl Scout cookies from her daughter's troop."
Nat Perez is an asshole of the worst kind. There aren't many at the courthouse that can stand to be around this jerk.
ReplyDeleteYet another example of the lowlifes serving the community. This judge ought to be taken from the bench and horse-whipped over at Market Square. As for the lawyer, wow! What a wimp. How much more of this do we need before we arrive at the decision that, yes, we are living in a growing cesspool. Shit up to our necks. Breathing the smell of dried-out public servant turds. Someone, do something! The Blogs can only parrot the crap each of their operators write. Jerry posted this; Juan posted that, blah, blah, blah. And, as always, nothing ever freakin' changes. Ja ja ja, indeed.
ReplyDeleteJim, you are stopping lower thank I have ever imagined. I suggest you revise your story, Aroldo is not Ernie's brother in law. Arold is Norma's 2nd or 3rd cousin.
ReplyDeleteErin,
DeleteDid I mix up your convicted felon uncles? Let's see Robert is your mom's brother, Ernie's brother-in-law, but Arold is your mom's cousin? Ok. Got it.

Hey Jim, by the way found an old law suit, back in 2006, where you to sued for not paying our bills, while I'm not surprised about it, i can't wait to email blast that information out to as many people as I can, along with Mary helens mugshots of course....
ReplyDeleteThis reads like it was written by Linda Castro Dragustinovis with her typical syntax, grammar and misspellings. She says: " where you to sued for not paying our bills." What she meant was "where you two were sued for not paying your bills." Linda likely read this off of the Cameron County recording of deeds, wills, liens, attachments, etc. She was not bright enough to notice the account was "paid in full" in March of 2010.
DeleteThis illustrates the damage that can be done when uneducated, unprepared notary publics like Linda get involved in immigration and citizenship matters. They simply do not have the skills and education to understand legal documents.
As for the threat to put this information out over the internet, that's simply the Cheezmeh way. Linda and Erasmo do this to their own family, not just those who have left the group for various reasons. That's what cults do.
Jim
