Court Case

Anthony P. Keyter vs. John Ashcroft, et al.

Synopsis of the Case

On November 2, 2004, an urgent petition for a Writ of Mandamus was filed in the United States Court of Appeals, DC Circuit, (Case No. 04-5392), directed at four senior officers of the US Department of Justice. Those officers are: John Ashcroft - former United States Attorney General; Kenneth Wainstein - United States Attorney, D.C.; Mark E. Nagle - Assistant United States Attorney, D.C.; Carol Catherman - Special Assistant United States Attorney, D.C.

These officers have knowledge of the commission of numerous felonies committed by government officers, and of a seditious conspiracy within government to cover up those crimes. In terms of 18 USC 4 and other statutes, each of the officers listed above had a legal duty to the people of the United States to ensure the execution of the laws of the country with regard to those felonies. Former Attorney General Ashcroft had duties to investigate and appoint independent prosecutors to address irregularities and crimes committed by officials in terms of 28 USC 535, 591, and 592. As the chief of law enforcement in the United States, Attorney General Ashcroft was obliged by numerous other statutes and by his oath of office to take action on the crimes presented to him. The four Department of Justice Officers mentioned above maliciously and willfully failed to perform their peremptory duties under law. The petition for mandamus sought to compel these officers to fulfill their non-discretionary duties under the criminal code, and other statutes, to take care of the administration of the laws of the United States.

The United States Court of Appeals denied the petition to command the officers to obey the law and to execute their statutory duties regarding known felonies.
