  • 8/9/2019 complaint against vexatious litigant

    Mr John Christopher Sunol

    16 Queen Street

    WARATAH WEST NSW 2298

    6 November 2014

    The President

    Anti-Discrimination Board of New South Wales,

    PO Box A2122

    Sydney South,

    NSW 1235

    Attention: Ms. McGuire

    This is a response to complaints reference numbers C2014/0740and C2014/0741.

    These complaints are the 31st and 32nd complaints that Mr Burns

    has lodged against me. The situation has now is unacceptable

    and has become out of control. It indicates systemic failure.

    I now appeal to the President to protect me from any further

    vexatious complaints from this person.

    It the President cannot protect me by declining these latest

    frivolous complaints (that are just a rehash of earlier

    complaints) then I will need to take it further to seek

    protection from the Attorney General under the New South Wales

    Vexatious Proceedings Act 2008.

    I found the attached note (see Attachment 2) about vexatious

    litigation laws in NSW on the internet and I am in total

    support of these laws.

    The note says, and I have experienced this,

    “There are those in the community who use the civil court

    system to pursue petty issues and intimidate others, often outof nothing more than vindictiveness, at great expense to

    society and at little advantage to themselves beyond a feeling

    of ‘having got back’ at someone”.

    “Such persons are known as vexatious litigants.” 

    The fact that these latest complaints are number 31 and 32

    against me from the same complainant shows that he falls under

    this category. This is particularly true when one takes into

    account the complainant’s own behaviour as per the attached

    documentation (refer Attachment 1).

    I will also be seeking legal advice to have the complainant

    charged with contempt of court (resulting in a possible jail

    sentence) for his refusal to pay costs awarded against him in

    a vexatious attempt at having me set up with an false AVO

    (case number 2011/97025, Magistrate R. Williams – 265, 5

    August 2011).

    There is no point in me trying to defend myself against these

    extra vilification complaints because they are based on

    unreliable evidence and mere speculation. Also, I know I have

    already been demonised by the complainant and his propaganda

    has affected the minds of numerous of his followers.

    Rather than that, I will provide a statement on why we cannot

    come to agreement on issues relating to homosexual

    vilification.

    I believe this man is a serial vexatious litigant who spends

    all of this time lodging complaints.

    I outline my reasons for differences with Mr Burns.

    I am the one who is in need of protection, not Mr Burns.

    The reasons are clear and outlined in the attachment to this

    letter.

    This shows a persistent endeavour to stalk and harass me

    because I am an “easy target”.

    Yours sincerely,

    John C Sunol

     ATTACHMENT 1

    COMPLAINT TO ANTI-DISCRIMINAITON BOARD OF NEW SOUTH WALES

     AGAINST MR GARRY (A.K.A GARY) BURNS

    FIG. 1

    This is an example of the respondent’s language that he uses

    in his daily activities, whilst he complains against myself

    and others using the homosexual vilification laws.

    FIG. 2

    This is an example of how the respondent treats those who he

    has put vilification complaints about to the Anti-

    Discrimination Board. It shows the respondent’s vexatiousness

    willingness to attack people he does not know.

    FIG. 3

    The respondent has a hatred of anyone with a differentviewpoint of homosexuality or about feminist ideology. These

    groups below are a part of the same groups that the

    complainant identifies with.

    This is an example of how the respondent always accuses those

    who are his perceived enemies as being paedophiles and then he

    himself rejects paedophilia as being part of his own

    community.

    FIG. 4

    The respondent has persuaded Ms Clover Moore to write to theMinister of Transport saying I am not a fit and proper person

    to drive a taxi or a bus on the grounds that he has been

    successful against me with his vilification complaints because

    I could not afford a lawyer.

    In this original online news article by Newcastle Herald and

    ABC News, they had a different photograph of myself in my taxi

    uniform. The respondent has got a hold of my old business

    card, and replaced the original photo with a photo of my old

    taxi showing the leased plates. These plates now belong to

    another person, and the complainant’s use of the old photo,

    obtained by fraud to damage me, is unethical and vexatious.

    FIG. 5

    This is the kind of language the respondent uses on his own

    Facebook but he complains about me for using far less crude

    and vilifying language.

    I feel as though he is using me for a political toy, to push a

    political agenda.

    FIG. 6

    This is a second example of the vilifying behaviour the

    respondent uses to talk about groups he is opposed to.

    This is another example of how the respondent attacks those

    who are opposed to his agenda by name-calling and suggesting

    they are paedophiles but he goes “ballistic” when anyone

    associates paedophilia with homosexuality.

    FIG 7

    This is an example of how the respondent – who is in reality

    an unemployed serial vexatious litigant – sees himself as a

    great working hero for the homosexual rights lobby.

    It also shows how his serial complaining is done as he is

    seeking fulfilment of his own gratification.

    In the complainant’s case, his gratification is increased

    because I am an easy target with no money to defend myself. .

    This also shows how the respondent has deliberately set up the

    complainant for public ridicule and mockery.

    The people who hate me as shown below don’t even know me so I

    am being set up by the respondent as a scapegoat for an outlet

    for people’s hate. People who know me do not hate me.

    FIG. 8

    This shows how the respondent sees the complainant as an “easy

    target”. This is confirmed by Ms Oldfield who mocks the

    complainant as a “poor defenceless fuckwit”. He is soliciting

    others to put in more fabricated vilification complaints tothe Anti-Discrimination Board assures then that they will win.

    This is because the complainant cannot defend himself due to

    lack of money. If the complainant was known to have obtained

    a good-paying job or came in receipt of a large sum of money

    this would encourage other people to carry on more

    vilification complaints for monetary purposes.

    This also shows how the respondent is inciting hatred and

    severe contempt of the complainant. Therefore the

    complainant is victimised for being who he is. As an example,

    a person by the name of Brenton Head said “GO get him, Gary”.

    This is proof that the respondent is already inciting people

    on this Facebook page.

    FIG. 9

    It has been noticed that the respondent uses different names

    in different legal jurisdictions. The respondent, under the

    jurisdiction of the Waverley Local Court, identified himself

    as “Gary Burns” with one “r”. This is the same as on hisFacebook and his blog. Under the jurisdiction of the Anti-

    Discrimination Board and the NSW Civil and Administrative

    Tribunal the respondent identifies himself as “Garry Burns”

    with two “r”’s. The complainant asks what is his correct name

    and why does he use two different legal names? The

    complainant suggests this is done to hide his real identity in

    relation to vilification complaints.

    The respondent has put on his blog the question “Is Newcastle 

    taxi driver John Christopher Sunol really a covert

    homosexual?”. The complainant states that this is pure

    stereotypical defamation and disinformation designed to incite

    serious contempt of the complainant’s ideas.

    This also illustrates that the respondent has caused others to

    create a fake Facebook page in order to discredit the

    complainant.
