Motion For Relief From Fraud And Void Orders and Judgment

NOW COMES The Plaintiff, Deion L. Turner, Pro Se (herein "Turner"), pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP) Rules 60(b)(3) & (4), Relief from Judgment or Order and respectfully moves this Honorable Court for Relief from fraud and its void orders and judgment of May 3rd, 2016. Thereof said in support, Turner states as follows:

Pro Se litigants' court submission are to be construed liberally and held to less stringent standards than submissions of lawyers. If the court can reasonably read the submissions, it should do so despite failure to cite proper legal authority, confusion of legal theories, poor syntax and sentence construction or litigant's unfamiliarity with rule requirements. See Boag v. MacDougall, 454 U.S. 364; Estelle v. Gamble, 429 U.S. 97, 106; Conley v. Gibson, 355 U.S. 41, 45-46; Haines v. Kerner, 404 U.S. 519. Holding Pro Se petition can not be held in same standards as pleading drafted by attorneys. The courts provide Pro Se parties wide latitude when construing their pleadings and papers. When interpreting Pro Se papers, the Court should use common sense to determine what relief the Pro Se party desires. Courts have special obligation to construe Pro Se litigants' pleadings liberally.

This Court may relieve a party or its legal representative from a final judgment, order, or proceeding for the reasons of fraud (whether previously called intrinsic or extrinsic), misrepresentation, or misconduct by an opposing party and/or judgment is void. S.H.A. FRCP Rules 60(b)(3) & (4).

Applicable Legal Facts & Rights:

1. The U.S. Code Title 42 Section 1983, requires and prescribes, " Civil action for deprivation of rights-Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes deprivation of anyrights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress...."

2. The Rooker-Feldman doctrine recognizes that federal district courts do not have subject matter jurisdiction to hear appeals from state court decision; only the Supreme Court has the authority to reverse or modify a state court judgment. Rooker-Feldman Doctrine. Exxon Mobil Corp., 544 U.S. 280, 284; Rooker v. Fidelity Co., 263 U.S. 413, 414-16; GASH Assocs. v. Village of Rosemont, Ill., 995 F. 2d 726, 728. Precisely stated, the doctrine bars "cases brought by state-court losers complaining of injuries caused by state-court judgment rendered before the district court proceedings commenced and inviting district court review and rejection of those judgments" Exxon Mobile Corp., 544 U.S. at 284.

3. Obstruction of justice occurrence when two or more persons conspire to impeded, hindered, obstructed and defeated the due course of justice. U.S. Code Title 42 Sections: 1985(2) 'Conspiracy To Interfere With Civil Rights' "....(2) Obstructing Justice;...or if two or more persons conspire for the purpose of impeding, hindering, obstructing and defeating, in any manner, the due course of justice in any State or Territory, with intent to deny to any citizen the equal protection of law, The rights of access to the courts is not limited to protecting rights of access to justice of only those individuals who will ultimately prevail in judicial process but it reaches conspiracy, misconduct and unjustified acts and actions which impedes the due course of justice with the intent to deny the individual equal protection of the law. This assures that no person will be denied the opportunity to present to the judiciary allegations concerning violations of fundamental constitutional rights, rights to seek judicial redress is granted not only in the due process clause of the 14th Amendment, but also in the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and acts of deception, obstruction and intimidation in connection with judicial proceedings are violations of the due process and equal protection clauses and give raise to legal actions under U.S. Code 42 Section 1985. First Amendment, U.S.C., See Bell, 746 F.2d 1205; Also See McTigue, 60 F.3d 381, 382. Conduct which interrupts or delay or hinders prison's to pursue their legal claims and/or litigations before the courts denies access to the courts and obstructs justice. Murillo v. Page, 294 Ill. App. 3d 860; Shango v. Jurich, 965 F.2d 289; Tucker v. Randall, 948 F.2d 388; Nance v. Vieregge, 147 F.3d 589; Lewis v. Casey, 518 U.S. 343, 351.
