Dear Mr. Burrows,
Female Court Staff's Entitlement to Unprofessional and Discriminatory
Behaviour
I am writing to draw to your attention three incidents in which
I have been at the receiving end of discriminatory and unprofessional
behaviour by staff at the Wellington High Court. I am a Men's Rights
Activist (MRA) of long standing and am used to being recognised as
being one.
-
In 2006, after gaining an LLB degree, I completed an online Professional
Legal Studies course. As part of that course, I had to attend a
court case and report on it. So I went to the Wellington High Court
and spoke to a woman (they all seemed to be women!) at the office
counter, asking her if I could have permission to take notes during
the court case. I had been told by my instructor to do this. Immediately,
a young blonde woman some distance away in the open-plan office
shouted out "You can't!". Not only was this offensive,
but it was also untrue, because I easily got permission and took
notes during the court hearing.
-
In 2009 I initiated a civil action at the Wellington High Court
-- see the webpage: http://equality.limewebs.com/zohravag.html --
against various parties, including the Families Commission. One
of the main issues was their support of the anti-male White Ribbon
Campaign. The woman who I mainly spoke to at the counter about this
was called (if my memory serves me right) Deina. I had a few chats
with her about her Greek homeland, since I had just been to Greece.
On subsequent visits to speak to her about my case, I noticed that
a visiting card had suddenly appeared, standing vertically at her
window. It was a Families Commission visiting card, and the White
Ribbon symbol was facing out. Since she knew that I was upset about
and angered by the sexism and discrimination which the Families
Commission and White Ribbon involved, it was nothing less than bitchiness,
bullying and unprofessional behaviour for her to suddenly have that
card in her window at that time.
-
Last month (June 2014), I appealed at the Wellington High Court
a District Court conviction which was based on the lies of a group
of (mainly) women. The court official who liaised with my lawyer
and me about the case was a woman called Sarla. My complaint about
her is that she misspelled my name in the subject-line of an email.
I complained about it, and she apologised twice. The second time
she apologised was in person, outside the courtroom. She misspoke,
apologising at first for mispronouncing my name -- and then correcting
it to misspelling. This is significant, because I am known for advocating
equality in cross-racial pronunciation matters -- see http://equality.limewebs.com/bsa16502.html
. As you know, the mass media have taught people that you
should pronounce Maori-origin words in English the way they are
pronounced in Maori -- although Maoris are never so craven or servile
that they pronounce English-origin words in Maori the way they are
pronounced in English! They just pronounce them any old way that
feels comfortable to them -- which is what happens between pairs
of languages in sane countries (i.e. not in New Zealand). So Whites
try (and fail) to pronounce "Tauranga" the way it is pronounced
in Maori, while Maoris pronounce "Queen Victoria" as "Kuini
Wikitoria." I know that this issue was on Sarla's mind, because
she looked very angry when I mentioned to my lawyer's Korean junior
that New Zealanders (i.e. the New Zealand media) never bother to
pronounce Chinese tones correctly. Sarla is a Polynesian, addressed
the judge (a Maori judge) in Maori, and the judge refused my appeal
-- so I am bound to wonder if the judge was biased.
It is my experience that women in New Zealand -- in all walks of
life -- have a sense of entitlement to oppress men. This is because
women have gained all sorts of rights on the basis that they wanted
"equality", but male politicians have been too weak or ignorant
to hold them to that "equality" standard. However, I would
like to request that you please at least try to make the court system
a bit less Female Supremacist.
Yours sincerely,
Peter D. Zohrab

Dear Mr. Burrows,
Government by Television and the Allocation of Judges to Cases
Thank you for your letter dated 30 Jul 2014. I am writing both to
comment on your reply and also to request an investigation into a different
-- but related -- matter.
1. I am happy with the way you dealt with the three substantive matters
that I raised, but I find it highly offensive that you -- or the official
who drafted your reply on your behalf -- skated over the matters which
I raised in the following 15 (fifteen!) lines, in order to home in on
the 16th line and to tell me off for allegedly expressing "concern"
about the use of Te Reo Maori in the New Zealand courts.
"... She misspoke, apologising at first for mispronouncing
my name -- and
then correcting it to misspelling. This is significant, because
I am known
for advocating equality in cross-racial pronunciation matters -- see
http://equality.limewebs.com/bsa16502.html
. As you know, the mass media
have taught people that you should pronounce Maori-origin words in
English the way they are pronounced in Maori -- although Maoris are
never
so craven or servile that they pronounce English-origin words in Maori
the
way they are pronounced in English! They just pronounce them any old
way that feels comfortable to them -- which is what happens between
pairs
of languages in sane countries (i.e. not in New Zealand). So Whites
try (and
fail) to pronounce "Tauranga" the way it is pronounced in
Maori, while
Maoris pronounce "Queen Victoria" as "Kuini Wikitoria."
I know that this
issue was on Sarla's mind, because she looked very angry when I mentioned
to my lawyer's Korean junior that New Zealanders (i.e. the New Zealand
media) never bother to pronounce Chinese tones correctly. Sarla is
a
Polynesian, addressed the judge (a Maori judge) in Maori, and the
judge
refused my appeal -- so I am bound to wonder if the judge was biased."
In fact, the sentence involved: "Sarla is a Polynesian, addressed
the judge (a Maori judge) in Maori, and the judge refused my appeal
-- so I am bound to wonder if the judge was biased" does not express
any concern about the use of Te Reo Maori in the New Zealand courts,
any more than it expresses concern about the fact that Sarla is a Polynesian!
In fact, it is clear that what I was expressing concern about was that
the judge was Maori, that she refused my appeal, that she might have
been biased, and that it might have been the judge who told Sarla to
misspell my name. There is no law that states that words of English
origin can be pronounced any old way in Maori, but that words of Maori
origin must be pronounced according to one of the dialects of Maori
in English. That is merely the racist policy of television and other
media, and I was expressing concern that the judge who presided over
my case might have been racist in exactly that way.
2. I would like to request an investigation into the allocation of
judges to my case in both the Wellington District
Court (CRI- 2012-091-003317) and the High Court, where I appealed the
District Court decision (CRI-2014-485-26). I was charged as a result
of a politically motivated conspiracy to commit perjury, and the Female
Supremacism in the court system which I referred to in my earlier letter
could easily have facilitated corruption in the allocation of judges.
Judge Tompkins was not the original judge assigned to my case in the
District Court. My Counsel and I only found out about the change of
judge on the day of the hearing, whereupon my Counsel hinted to me that
I should not mention in my testimony that I had seen a circle of women
headed by a butch Lesbian on a station platform (as
mentioned in the High Court judgment). I did not pick up on the
hint at the time and went ahead with mentioning the group of women.
In retrospect, I assumed that Judge Tompkins was perhaps Homosexual
and would have regarded any mention of Lesbians that was not positive
as offensive. Judge Tompkins and his Registrar both made a rude noise
when they left the Courtroom at the lunch recess and a Men's Rights
colleague of mine who was there said that he could tell early on from
the Judge's body language that the decision would go against me. Similarly,
my Counsel at the High Court told me that Goddard J. was the worst possible
judge for me, having been Head of the Police Conduct Authority and therefore
being close to the Police. He also made an ambiguous remark which could
be regarded as derogatory of Goddard J..
Yours sincerely,
Peter D. Zohrab
