David A. Ezra, was nominated by President Ronald Reagan in 1988. Ezra is a federal judge for the Ninth Circuit, District of Hawaii; former attorney for Bank of Hawaii; judge in the Rice vs. Cayetano case; judge in the Sukamto Sia trial; judge in the Tony Rutledge trial; judge in Hawaiian Airlines vs. Joshua Gotbaum case; judge in D.C. No. CV-94-00858-DAE - KONA ENTERPRISES, INC., et al, vs. ESTATE OF BERNICE PAUAHI BISHOP, et al; judge in Harmon’s RICO lawsuit against the former Trustees of Kamehameha Schools, Nathan Aipa, Louanne Kam, William Richardson, P&C Insurance Company, Marsh & McLennan, Federal Insurance Company (Chubb Group), PricewaterhouseCoopers, et al.; and judge in the instant civil case Office of the United States Trustee vs. Harmon.
The attorney for Federal Insurance Co. in Defendant’s RICO lawsuit was Lissa Andrews, a former law clerk for Judge David Ezra. Ms. Andrews was formerly a partner at Ezra, O'Connor & Moon and Andrews & Yamamoto, LLLC, before becoming Of Counsel to Rush Moore LLP, A Limited Liability Law Partnership in 2004. Attorneys Susan Tius and Lyn Anzai are also attorneys for this law firm.
Judge David Ezra was also the judge in the high profile case of former Kamehameha Schools Trustee Lokelani Lindsey, in which she filed a “Request for Recusal of Judge David A. Ezra” U.S. District Court, District of Nevada on October 17, 2003 (CR. S-01-318 DAE/RJJ and CR. S-00-00482 HG). In her affidavit attached to the Recusal Request, she declared :
I, LOKELANI LINDSEY, hereby declare and aver under oath the following:
I am concerned about people in authority attacking me and setting me up, more so that in the past; and especially for the life, health and safety of myself, my family, my friends, my associates, and my property and their property. I hold responsible Leslie Osborne, Michael Seabright, Thomas Stevens, and Rebecca McKenzie-Young, as the insurer of my life and their life, health and safety. I do this because:
1. I have insider knowledge of Bishop Estate corruption and cover up of same.
2. I have insider knowledge of corrupt attempts to seize control over the Bishop Estate.
3. I have insider knowledge of further attempts to or acts of abuse of Hawaiians.
4. I have insider knowledge of grand jury tampering in Hawaii.
5. I have insider knowledge of other political and financial corruption in this state, and the targeting of people and groups related thereto.
On behalf of the Hawaii active Whistleblowers Association International, Inc., aka HAWAII, I am here to defend Hawaiians and do encourage all Hawaiians to bring their evidence of abuse and cover up to me so that I can bring that and the above to the Grand Juries here and/or elsewhere....
The abuses against Hawaiians has been and is race based, (see Rice v. Cayetano) and thus civil genocide. These abuses are on a long, continuous conspiracy to steal the birthright and heritage, assets and rights of Hawaiians. The Internal Revenue Service, State of Hawaii and the Bishop Estate are mere Guardians for their Wards, the Hawaiians. The Guardianship must be broken and the Hawaiians freed from assaults similar to those perpetrated by Nazi Germany as revealed in the post World War II Nuremberg trails. The Trust was never broken, especially NOT by me. The Guardianship over the Hawaiian Wards continues, except that now the current Trustees and quasi-trustees (Internal Revenue Service and Hawaii Attorney General) have greatly enhanced the effective stripping of assets and rights from the Hawaiians. I was a Guardian and now I am merely a Hawaiian Ward of these abusive overlords who perpetuate the race based subjugation of the Hawaiians.
Bernice Pauahi Bishop intended for the trust she established to be governed for the purpose of preserving the Hawaiians their assets and heritage in perpetuity. However, the felonies which have been and are being committed in the wholesale attacks on the Bishop Estate are for another goal. The true goal of the current overlords is to put the Bishop Estate and other Hawaiian (such as OHA) assets into the General Fund of the State of Hawaii (and related destinations), and also let the State of Hawaii and the United States just keep the assets of the Hawaiians in trust under their jurisdiction.
If I go to prison, I will have an opportunity for many prisoners to join the Foundation and me in our march to the Grand Juries here and into many states.
I was arrested to block me from taking to the Grand Jury the evidence that I and others have of serious abuses in the Bishop Estate, abuses against the Hawaiians, and especially against the Hawaiian children. Among others we are especially looking for additional alleged indicting evidence against those which include Jack Borja, Rebecca McKenzie-Young, Leslie Osborne, Mike Chun, Oswald Stender, Randall Roth, Judge David Ezra (and his being counsel for Bank of Hawaii), and Ed Case, who all have alleged long histories of such abuses. The Grand Juries are the only appropriate Court to review these and related matters.
Although claimed by such parties to be a minor matter, the recent Bishop Estate loss of about $2 billion and sale of assets to cover up the losses, will also be reviewed by Grand Juries. The matter of thefts from the Kamehameha Schools and Heritage Center of artifacts and other precious items will also be reviewed....
I have been threatened with harm to myself, my family and friends, our lives, health and property, and am very worried these threats will be further carried out, including potentially by one or more of those people named above, directly or through others. A copy of this is being sent to my Las Vegas attorney, Judge David Ezra, the two prosecutors named above, and as appropriate.
Subscribed and sworn to before me
this 30th day of July, 2003
<s> Lokelani Lindsey
Notarized by E. Emalia Keohokalole

Defendant has also filed complaints and requests for the recusal of Judge David Ezra for the same reasons as had former Trustee Lokelani Lindsey: CONFLICTS OF INTERESTS & THE APPEARANCE OF BIAS.
David Ezra was also a former attorney for Bank of Hawaii, for which my former supervisor at Kamehameha Schools/Bishop Estate, Gilbert Tam - a defendant in my RICO lawsuit and a witness in the current case - is a senior officer. Mr. Tam is also an officer for Sandwich Isles Communications, along with Kamehameha Schools’ trustee, Robert K.U. Kihune.

Dear Mr. Farmer, Mr. Guttman, Ms. Muranaka & All Concerned:
Due to the discovery of NEW FACTS, I am updating the subject Exhibit and the witness information for U.S. Attorneys General Michael Mukasey and Alberto Gonzales, which you will find attached and on-line at:

http://www.kycbs.net/CV05-00030-Witness-Gonzales-Alberto.htm
As Judge David Ezra's Final Judgment constitutes a PRIOR RESTRAINT of my freedom of speech -- and that of all others who published their opinions in The Catbird Seat website, I regret that I must continue to submit each of these new and updated exhibits and witness descriptions for your review and approval in the event they may contain any prohibited "Protected Subject Matter". If you would like to avoid this approval process, then I would again suggest that we attempt a good-faith settlement of this case through confidential negotiation or mediation.

The First Amendment Handbook
Prior Restraints
A prior restraint is an official restriction of speech prior to publication. Prior restraints are viewed by the U.S. Supreme Court as "the most serious and the least tolerable infringement on First Amendment rights." Since 1931, the Court repeatedly has found that such attempts to censor the media are presumed unconstitutional.
In the 1976 landmark case Nebraska Press Association v. Stuart, the Court addressed the constitutionality of an order prohibiting the media from publishing or broadcasting certain information about Erwin Charles Simants, who was accused of murdering the Henry Kellie family in a small town in Nebraska. This case pitted the First Amendment rights of a free press against the defendant's Sixth Amendment right to a fair trial.
To ensure that Simants received a fair trial, the Nebraska Supreme Court modified the district court's order to prohibit reporting of confessions or admissions made by Simants or facts "strongly implicative" of Simants.
On appeal, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the prior restraint order. The Court emphasized that the use of prior restraint is an "immediate and irreversible sanction" that greatly restricts the First Amendment rights of the press. "If it can be said that a threat of criminal or civil sanctions after publication `chills' speech, prior restraint `freezes' it at least for the time," Chief Justice Warren Burger wrote for the Court.
To determine whether the prior restraint order was justified, the Court applied a form of the "clear and present danger" test, examining whether "the gravity of the `evil,' discounted by its improbability, justifies such invasion of free speech as is necessary to avoid the danger."
In applying this test, the Court articulated a three-part analytical framework, which imposed a heavy burden on the party seeking to restrain the press. First, the Court examined "the nature and extent of the pretrial news coverage." Second, the Court considered whether other less restrictive measures would have alleviated the effects of pretrial publicity. Finally, the Court considered the effectiveness of a restraining order in preventing the threatened danger.
The Court found that the trial judge reasonably concluded that the "intense and pervasive pretrial publicity" in the Simants case "might reasonably impair the defendant's right to a fair trial." However, the trial judge did not consider whether other measures short of a prior restraint order would protect the defendant's rights. The trial judge should have considered changing the location of the trial, postponing the trial, intensifying screening of prospective jurors, providing emphatic and clear instructions to jurors about judging the case only on the evidence presented in the courtroom or sequestering the jury.
The Court also found that the effectiveness of the trial judge's prior restraint order to protect Simants' right to a fair trial was questionable. Because the prior restraint order is limited to the court's territorial jurisdiction, it could not effectively restrain national publications as opposed to publications within the court's jurisdiction.
Moreover, it is difficult for trial judges to draft effective prior restraint orders when it is hard "to predict what information will in fact undermine the impartiality of jurors."...
Because the "barriers to prior restraint remain high and the presumption against its use continues intact," prior restraint orders are rarely upheld. As a result, editorial decisions about publication of information the government deems sensitive are generally left solely to the discretion of news organizations. Nevertheless, government officials and private individuals occasionally attempt to stop publication....

Quiet firm rules
Waikiki gems
By Rick Daysog, Advertiser Staff Writer
Few people in Hawai'i have ever heard of Cerberus Capital Management LP, yet in the past year, the New York-based hedge fund has become a top hotel owner in the state and major lender to the state's No. 2 airline.
Cerberus took control of Waikiki's crown jewels — the Sheraton Waikiki, the Royal Hawaiian and the Sheraton Moana Surfrider — when it bought a 65 percent interest in the hotels' owner, Japan-based Kokusai Kogyo KK, for $2.4 billion in November 2004.
Cerberus is now acquiring a 30-percent interest in Japan-based Seibu Holdings Inc., which owns the Hawaii Prince Hotel Waikiki, the Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel, the Maui Prince and the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel.
"These properties are worth billions of dollars, making them (Cerberus) one of the biggest hotel owners in Hawai'i," said Mike Hamasu, director of consulting and research at Colliers Monroe Friedlander Inc.
The company also played a pivotal role in Aloha Airlines' reorganization. In March, Ableco Finance LLC, Cerberus' lending arm, teamed up with Goldman Sachs Credit Partners LP to provide up to $65 million in financing to help the bankrupt carrier continue operating.
The rapid rise of Cerberus on the Hawai'i business landscape comes amid a resurgence of investment from Mainland companies.
They include:
The Carlyle Group, based in Washington, D.C., which purchased Verizon Hawaii last year for $1.65 billion.
New York-based Cendant Corp., which in addition to running Avis, Budget, Century 21 and Cheap Tickets, bought the local Coldwell Banker residential real-estate franchise last month.
HRPT Properties Trust, based in Newton, Mass., which paid nearly $600 million to acquire more than 400 acres of industrial properties owned by the Damon Estate
