Hon Rob Kerin MP

Leader of the Opposition, State and Regional Development, Multicultural Affairs, and Small Business

 

Dear Leader,

 

I have not yet heard from Robert Lawson, see below, so I do not expect him to act as I believe he should.  

 

This all started in 1974 with a poison pen letter to Acting Deputy Commissioner of Taxation, William Parker, from Wayne Zanker who failed in his attempt to blackmail me into investing $30.000 into his potential export product.  As far as I know his product was never commercially produced.  Zanker went through with his threat to damage my business and Parker ‘shot from the hip’ to maliciously start the destruction of several small businesses.

 

Parker told me he was an ex-‘Rat of Tobruk’ when he was fruitlessly negotiating for my clients to pay half the tax he put into dispute with his re-assessments.  Parker was a ‘horse trader’ and a failure in his short-lived top Adelaide tax job.

 

Lawson should have sorted all of this out in 1978 simply by putting to the Supreme Court the exhibits of cheques, bank deposits and invoices together with his senior partner’s legal argument  (R Fisher QC) that was put to the Taxation Board of Review.

 

There is no doubt that Lawson enabled Parker to extort money from about 100 South Australian exporters and so destroy some good businesses and wrongly have Robert Semmens and me jailed.

 

As Leader, I ask you to fix all of this.

 

If you spare the time to read my website you will see that I want to apply my time and energy to creating a major SA Wind/Hydro/Hydrogen Real Estate industry based in the Port Augusta Region.    Cleaning up this Parker/Lawson affair is a major step along the way.  You can obstruct my progress by doing nothing or clear the way for a start in 2004 on the Opal Lands Waterway.

 

I look forward to your reply.

 

Regards

John Robertson

Dear Robert Lawson,

 

I recently fluked to find the Greenslade Case on the Internet and I now question whether you are a fit person to be in Parliament.  I base that statement on the assumption that you are the ‘Mr Lawson’ referred to by Mitchell J in: 

SUPREME COURT OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA

GREENSLADE v FEDERAL COMMISSIONER OF TAXATION

MITCHELL J     17, 19, 25, 30 October, 9 November 1978 –

 

The purpose of placing this web site on the Internet is to achieve Effective Law Reform in Action, see Introduction_HELP_RID_SCUM

 

For the Law to be really effective interested people should have easy Internet access to ALL Court Documents and Voice Recordings so that people like you are fully exposed.  

 

The Mitchell judgment discloses that you aided and abetted wrongdoers.

 

·          80 shareholders of Opal Syndicates Ltd paid your law firm, Fisher Jeffries & Co, for you to conduct a test case Appeal in the name of Greenslade; I was one of those shareholders. 

·          You in fact worked for your Senior Partner, Bob Fisher QC, who was negligent in permitting R Matheson QC breach Section 38 of the Crimes Act.

·          You did not properly work on Greenslade’s Appeal; you in fact worked for the Commissioner of Taxation, Fisher and Matheson by getting a temporary instruction from Greenslade to discontinue his appeal after you discouraged him to continue.

·          You made a binding agreement with Anna Vicic of the Deputy Crown Solicitor at Adelaide to cancel Greenslade’s Appeal and so cover up the Section 38 crime and the negligence. You did that without the authority of solicitor AT Gun who was managing the fighting fund of the 80 shareholders.  Gun/Greenslade sacked you and Gun engaged John Doyle, now Chief Justice, to try to have your binding agreement defeated.

Further Particulars

 

1.        I had told you of Matheson’s deception of me while I was a witness for Greenslade in the earlier J8 Taxation Board of Review Case and how Matheson used his deception to pass off Greenslade’s business as my business.  I showed you the transcripts that contained the deception.  I also showed you photocopies of US cheques made out to the syndicates Greenslade was in.  I told you there were hundreds of such photocopies of cheques.  But unbeknown to Gun and me, you made a secret agreement with Anna Vicic to withdraw Greenslade’s appeal.

 

2.        The Adelaide office of the Commissioner of Taxation also had photocopies of the US cheques and the banking records.  William Parker, the Acting Deputy Commissioner, deliberately extorted the money from the 80 shareholders once Matheson did his passing off deception and you made your secret agreement with Vicic. 

 

3.        Your action permitted the faulty J8 Case to stand and it was read by WJ Austen of the Export Development Grants Board, who, believing the passing off, told Batley he did not like seeing his name in my 97 page ‘Yellow Book’.  Then Batley rejected the claims made by the Semmens Group.  Davies J, of the Administrative Appeals Tribunal, was then recorded by his Co-member, Pascoe, as being biased against Semmens.  Lane followed Davies J and Layton followed Lane and you.  AND IT WAS YOU WHO HAD STARTED THAT WHOLE CHAIN OF EVENTS by not properly working on the Greenslade Appeal.

 

4.        My 'Yellow Book' was Exhibit 1 before Layton and records that six months prior to you scuttling the Greenslade Appeal, John Konstas and I were responding to Prime Minister Fraser's call for an Export Drive.  We conducted a seminar at The Hotel Australia on May 29 1978 that Semmens attended.  I told that gathering that Konstas and I would finance creditworthy people.  I said that to provide my part of the financing I was guaranteeing Opal Syndicates Ltd  and John Robertson Exports Ltd and for collateral security had put up our family home, my holiday house on the Murray and my opal mining company that owned heavy machinery and opal stock.  

 

5.        Your later scuttling of Greenslade's Appeal on October 13, 1978, appeared to be a flea bite at that time as we all had plenty of money and none of us knew that later, then Treasurer, John Howard, would under-budget for export incentives and that WJ Austen would adversely influence Batley to destroy the Semmens Sheepskin Venture.  I lost all of my assets, Konstas and Semmens both lost their homes and I do not know what else.  

 

6.        At the Layton/Semmens Hearing you had the gall to say the Semmens venture was a sham or in the alternative our beachhead operation was of a capital nature.  I am extremely angry with you for NOT properly working for Greenslade and us in 1978 and then in the 1989 Semmens Case for you SPINNING a story for Layton to use to hold onto the Commissioner's MALFEASANCE LINE that started with William Parker in 1974. 

 

7.        I am very keen to read the transcript of your address to Layton.  I do not recall you telling Layton that you were engaged by the Opal Syndicates Ltd shareholders in the Greenslade J8 Case Appeal that led on to Semmens coming before Layton.    

 

8.        I recall you making many objections to my questioning of witnesses as I represented Semmens before Layton.  When I return to Australia I will see how much of your objecting related to the J8 crimes - if Effective Law Reform was already fully in operation I could have already read all the transcripts on the Internet.

 

9.        Now I do not expect you to do the decent thing and act to clean up all the criminal and negligent actions that flowed from your secret agreement with Anna Vicic to act against those 80 shareholders who paid Fisher and you to represent us.  

 

10.    You alone enabled the Commissioner of Taxation to take money from more than a hundred South Australian exporters under the guise of legal right (extortion) and I believe you should be prosecuted and jailed. 

 

11. Rofe, Matheson and Thorpe are mere pawns by comparison to you.   Think about it.   You were paid by the Taxpayers (80 shareholders) while you secretly helped the Commissioner of Taxation extort their money from them!     

 

I believe Parliament should suspend you forthwith.

But suppose you hold up your hands and admit you made some mistakes and that you will now help me fix it all up:

  • OK, no hard feelings from me
  • As an Opal Syndicates Ltd shareholder and fighting fund member I was your client in the Greenslade J8 Appeal NOT the Commissioner.
  • You are much more experienced now and you are the only lawyer with first hand knowledge of the J8 Greenslade Case and the Robert Semmens Case so you organise my application for legal aid and with a solicitor, you work for me to clean up all the wrongs.
  • We put as much as possible on the Internet to be a Model for Effective Law Reform   
  • You do what Ian Ward QC of Sydney was preparing to do for me in 1984, when Simon Lane fabricated a defence for the SA Government, and that is to CLAIM AGAINST WILLIAM PARKER FOR MALFEASANCE (or similar).
  • Parker was the failed Acting Deputy Commissioner of Taxation, Adelaide, with the reputation of shooting from the hip.  Parker was present when I told Deputy Commissioner Max Kahl that the Adelaide Taxation Office had destroyed correspondence from John Charles Wade who gave a very full disclosure before joining a syndicate and who received a full clearance to join.  Kahl said nothing is destroyed but George Hann confirmed it was destroyed.  Senator Jessop was also present.
  • The Adelaide Taxation Office had hundreds of photocopies of US Cheques made out to the several different opal syndicates AND UNDER PARKER, ACTED AS IF THOSE PHOTOCOPIES NEVER EXISTED, to extort money from about 100 South Australians.
  • (You enabled the extortion by not properly preparing Greenslade's Appeal.)
  • The Commissioner of Taxation, through Parker (and you) is guilty of extortion (malfeasance) and MUST REPAY Greenslade and the other syndicate members/shareholders, or their estates, the extorted money, with interest.

 

Now you fix that up and then fix up the Commissioner's repeated extortion against the Semmens Group, organise the quashing of our convictions, and, I suppose that will be all we can expect from you.          

 

Conflict Resolution

 

The J8 Greenslade records show who said what.  Chairman of the Taxation Board of Review, Donovan, followed ball spinner Matheson instead of Fisher’s correct down-the-line legal argument.

 

After your non-appeal episode I put the M20 Case to Donovan, a King SCUM if ever there was one.  You can read his M20 decision where he did not cover the hundreds of US Cheques in favour of the several exporting syndicates – instead he covered up William Parker’s malfeasance.  That SCUM Donovan said something like, ‘The money found its way into the syndicates’ bank accounts.’ That SCUM Donovan had hundreds of photocopies of US cheques as an exhibit that I put in front of him, but in his Decision he did not actually mention the US cheques.               

 

Donovan the SCUM hid behind the Act that prevents a victim suing him for damages.  The Bastard should be prosecuted and jailed for perverting justice.

 

SCUM Brady followed SCUM Donovan as we tried again to have the Taxation Board of Review cover the US cheques.

 

Now Robert Lawson, you caused those Spinners to Cover Up Parker’s Malfeasance when you did not proceed with Jack Greenslade’s Appeal.

 

I suppose most of the SCUMs are now too old or dead, but you are not.  You fell into an open and shut case and turned it into a frightful scandal where you cannot correctly defend the SCUM from my insults.

 

So why not look at the US Cheques and tell me with a sound legal argument how SCUMS Donovan and Brady are right and Bob Fisher and I are wrong.   Come on, meet my challenge or resign from Parliament.  Best of all, just fix it all up, Semmo and I know you can do it if you want to.

 

I will give you all the free space on my website that you need to reply.  C’mon Robert Lawson, get up on my page.

 

Regards

John Robertson
