The motion asks the court to order the removal of certain articles and requests a coercive fine of up to $2,000 per day until the articles are removed.
Anthony , I have read everything you have published , and admire your bravery in exposing those who are handed power over citizens . My husband and I suffered two years of harassment in a frivolous lawsuit from Lane Wolfley. My research uncovered some of what you have reported . But, your excellent skills have shown me that we were extremely fortunate that our experience was not much worse . That is not to say it was not horrific . My husband did not sleep for the duration of the legal battle worrying we would lose our business , and for my safety after the plaintiff attempted to run me off the road one day near our home. I am convinced the stress contributed to his heart attack a year after the lawsuit was over . You have confirmed what I knew then , and validated my suspicions that things were even worse in this county . Thank you , and I wish you the very best .
Cheryl, thank you for you opening up. It's people like you that suffer from lawyers who are out to sue for anything and any reason just to get an income. There are lawyers who do have ethics and honesty, Lane Wolfley isn't one of them. I do believe you that your husband's heart attack was due to stress put on you both.
I became obsessed by the injustice of what was happening to us, small business owners who often suffered from our honesty . We were treated like criminals for nothing but the greed of clients who sued contractors for a iving with Wolfjey and his firm egging themo on for reasons you can surmise . I spent untold hours researching the history of all of them and refused to stay quiet . They hated me . When I told people what was happening even I knew I sounded insane . Who could believe this level of fraud in small-town America? Two years of my husband sitting up at night worried we might be victims of the nefarious plaintiffs . They stalked me at my job and in local businesses , in full view of the community . I met with other victims of this cabal and was sickened by what I learned , and yet, they continue to harm innocent individuals and families . I had one female employee at the courthouse tell me " we all know you are not guilty of any wrongdoing, but you have angered them and they are not going to allow you to win this fight. You've embarrassed all of them.". I didn't know they could be embarrassed considering their past behavior ( at that time).
Cheryl, your situation happens over and over. A lawsuit is an automatic sentence of stress, sleepless night, weight loss, fear to go on vacation, relationship disorders, financial upheaval, possible bankruptcy ...the list is long.
It doesn't end, there is actual PTSD in lawsuits. I'm sorry this happened to you and your husband, not to give you relief, but there is comfort in voicing your anger.
PS I'm in the middle of a years long lawsuit now. Financially in too deep but at the same time can't back out. I have not been able to sleep past 3AM since this started. I do feel your pain.
We are in a group no one wants to be . The whole system is constructed to destroy us . Financially , emotionally and all that entails . We weren't even rich enough to matter , and the plaintiff paid with an insurance check .. A paltry amount ,really, less than $5000/ and they wanted $50, 000 from us . I got Lane to resign as their lawyer twice and recused two judges , but he came back at the trial . They had shady witnesses that lied under oath ( one could not read and they still used his false testimony ). I could go on and on , but I won't bore you more . My husband's health was destroyed and I am still bitter .
Cheryl, you aren't boring me at all. Yours is a story overshadowed by Clallam County local news expounding the merits of our "leaders" and the score of high school basketball games. None will touch the injustices till now. We have these investigative substack reporters opening ours eyes. What's great is that they are working together to spread the news. And that's why you and me are subscribers to them!
I've wondered if the Daily News was covering any of this as I cancelled my subscription many yrs ago . Sports always take center stage . The county in Oregon where I grew up is rife with scandal sexual and financial often mingled together . The sports stars always are protected . One of the school districts paid the largest settlement in Oregon history after years of sexual abuse was brought into the daylight ( due to the students protesting and refusing to attend class). We certainly cannot rely on MSM or remaining local newspapers to tell us what the powerful are doing .
Anthony, not many people are privy to the inside workings of litigation, so thank you for this very insightful article. Courts are not all fair and equal in process portrayed like Perry Mason TV shows. Far from it in too many cases. Exposing powerful individuals in the legal system is costly in many ways. I'm sure this fight is costing you, not just a pretty penny, but mentally and physically...plus investigating and putting out articles of injustice in other counties, makes this a Herculean effort.
I'm still cracking up because this Benjamin Mavy thought that he was pulling a fast one by attacking your news articles and citing the exact photo of a protestor holding a sign at a public protest. 😄 That photo he cites, the protestor never mentions his name...and going "That photo is harassing ME, specifically!"...Well...Now people are definitely going to have questions...
Oh nevermind, he cites ALL the photos. And the whole article. Everything you say about Judge Brasden is personally offensive to the Benjamin Mavy. Interesting...
Goddess...that commissioner Brian Parker is chilling. Like...Is that man seriously asking why a local citizen wouldn't like wildlife crimes happening? "Why are you so on fire about this"? "Was it your wildlife that was damaged"? That's a chillingly revealing statement...In his big ole boys club, it's not normal to care about abuse of animals? Not unless you're damaging a richer man's property?
Does he also need to have it explained to him that normal people aren't supposed to be upset if someone drowns kittens?
"Through the federal filings, I found a police report, which stated that Parker had been arrested for perjury by the Everett Police Department. It was a glaring conflict of interest that Parker, arrested for making false statements, focused his hostility on my constitutionally protected act of reporting Mavy for similar crimes of dishonesty."
This is NOT a conflict of interest in any meaningful sense. A conflict of interest for a judge is about having a personal/financial stake, a close relationship, or prior involvement in an incident or the parties to the incident.
Having been charged with a superficially similar crime in the past is not a judicial conflict of interest, and you should charge your wording here. Judges who have been charged with DUIs are not prevented from presiding over DUI hearings, and no jurist would advocate for that. It's not a sustainable rule for society - the law can't prevent every form of bias.
I appreciate your journalistic efforts, but you need to be more careful about the leaps you make from the evidence, and your application of legal terminology.
If a person applying to be a law-enforcement officer had perjury and arrests on their record as this individual does, they would not even make it through the first round of the application process. Being honest and having integrity is a must and should be even more so for anyone being any kind of judge!
Respectfully, I disagree with the characterization that this is “superficially similar.”
A DUI and perjury are not comparable in the context of judicial credibility. Perjury is not a routine criminal charge — it is a crime that goes directly to a person’s honesty under oath and their relationship to the truth. In a courtroom, credibility and truthfulness are the foundation of the entire system.
When someone who has been criminally investigated for making false statements under oath later evaluates, attacks, or discredits another person for reporting dishonesty to authorities, it raises legitimate questions about bias and credibility. That is not a leap; it is a matter of context.
I assume Anthony's point was that the situation creates a serious appearance problem when the same individual who faced allegations of dishonesty under oath later uses his authority to undermine a litigant who reported similar misconduct by another person.
The integrity of the judicial process depends not only on the absence of technical conflicts, but also on public confidence that proceedings are fair and unbiased. When credibility is central to the issues being adjudicated, prior conduct related to dishonesty under oath is not “superficial.” There is nothing superficial about perjury.
? Trent, as I said, ranks close in when powerful people are attacked. Not to doubt you, but could you give facts not opinions. Anthony thoroughly backs up his claims, you don't.
You really thought you were doing something there, didn't you?
You thought that we needed to know that he wasn't *merely* concerned with wildlife abuse...like any normal person would be.
Is this same wife we heard reports of "Ben" Mavy abusing? You say that you know that the journalist knows her after he already told you that he went hunting with her ex husband? Now just how do you think that changes the story, person on a first name basis with wildlife criminal and alleged spousal and child abuser Benjamin Mavy?
I am so thankful to see all of this. I went through a messed up case with my son in front of Basden and the way the case was handled was beyond messed up. Thankfully after a very hard long fight my son was in my care fulltime and no longer had to go through what he was. But it wasn't until my son got subpoenaed to testify in court of what happened to him for Basden to grant me full custody.
I support accountability journalism, but I also believe transparency goes both ways. When a reporter has a personal history or prior relationship connected to the subject of their reporting, it’s important for that to be disclosed so readers can evaluate the information with full context. For example, if there are past personal connections, such as moving from Wyoming to Washington with Ben Mavy’s wife during a divorce battle, that seems like relevant context readers should be aware of, aside from simply presenting as a concerned citizen reporting on wildlife crimes.

I looked up the court records that Anthony showed and what's interesting it's from court regaurds regarding stalking and harassment by Anthony. It was alarming enough to me because he didn't mention im his article that he had history with him
Oh really? You were looking up the court records that Anthony showed you for all of us to see...and you were *so* surprised and disturbed by what you saw that you had to come online to report that...*checks notes*... Oh wait...this doesn't make Benjamin Mavy look any better...in fact...ew! So that was "special" of you. Thanks for that, totally unbiased citizen.
It's available to the public. Do you have an email? I want to send you the court records. It's completely different than what Anthony said. It's the reason I looked into his past and it's horrible! Please do your research and It's ok to fact check.

Claire, I have asked Anthony about your inquiries (below) I will post my comment. If you receive this let me know as I need to know you are still in the loop.
"Anthony, a subscriber on your site, her name is Claire, posted a comment to you. She says she was deleted because it was a negative comment. She then had to go to CCWD to repost what she posted. Her post was claiming not only did you delete her post, but she had proof of accusations against you. Could you please repost what you deleted so we all can make comments and do research as to her accusations.
You never make comments on your site, now is the time to start interacting with your subscribers"
I wrote the same comment to Anthony on Facebook and was blocked on there too. I have screenshots of the facebook being blocked if you are interested. That's how I know it was intentional and made me question his integrity. Thank you for looking into this further! I'll wait to see if he can answer to his previous business and why he didn't disclose the correct court documents or his relationship being more with Mavy.
No. He didn't block you. It's nobody's fault that you evidently tried to share too fast. Technology tries the best of us. Look, it's never nice when we hear people talk about terrible things that our friends did. And maybe you share Brian Parker's confusion about why anyone would be outraged at wildlife abuse. Or child abuse. Or spousal abuse. But just because you didn't think it was clear enough from his article that two men could go hunting together and might also meet their families, don't make it everyone else's problem.
He blocked me 3 times that day and on Facebook. I couldn't write it on any post he made. However, mysterious it's viewable since yesterday. Which I'm grateful for. I have Facebook photos to verify and court records to back up the weird misinformation too.
Look into his past- he has multiple businesses with fake addresses. He took money from his clients without services rendered. When I took just one article that he put himself in, I was able to verify that the court was gathering on a stalking/ harassment case- not wild crimes. That was wyoming. Apparently he has a history with Mavy but didnt disclose it 🤦♀️I can send you 6 photos showing dialogue in court verifying everything here.
