Wednesday morning, July 2nd at 9 a.m., a “status hearing” is scheduled for Montgomery County Clerk of Courts Mike Foley. If you’re confused about what that means, you’re not alone, and that’s kind of the point.
The Dayton Daily news finally reported on my Quo Warranto filing today, and pointed out that this Wednesday hearing was taking place. They even spelled my name right.
Foley was convicted two weeks ago after entering a no-contest plea to two crimes that should have automatically removed him from public office. One felony. One misdemeanor. Both disqualifying under Ohio law. You read that all in previous posts here.
He was sentenced. He should be gone. Instead, we’re doing this bizarre dance because the court is allowing him to whine.
The reality is: Foley didn’t file any evidence of “manifest injustice,” which is the legal standard required to withdraw a plea after sentencing. But the court doesn’t require that up front. Instead, we get a procedural conference to see what he might argue.
Meanwhile, I, the private citizen who filed the writ of Quo Warranto to remove him, am being told to wait in line. As if his conviction didn’t already settle the matter.
The clerks office is claiming I captioned the case wrong- so they are treating it like I filed against the Clerks office- with his name, instead of the Clerk. The problem is- my filing only counts if he is the clerk of courts. The only way you can find it on their online system is to enter “Mike Foley Montgomery County Clerk of Courts” in the company field. However, if that’s the case, any stall of serving him is irrelevant- because I’m filing against the office (and- in that case- they were served already). None of this makes sense.
This is why people don’t trust the system. This is why government feels like theater. Because when the law is clear, but justice stalls, it looks like everyone is just hoping we’ll forget.
I plan to be there Wednesday, and filming (despite the Clerks office mysteriously cancelling my e-filing account without notification). And no matter what legal technicalities unfold, the truth remains:
Mike Foley is a convicted criminal, still sitting in public office, still drawing a taxpayer-funded paycheck.
And the people who were supposed to do something? Still haven’t.
David, the Justice system does not work for pro se filers. Don’t feel bad. I had to voluntarily dismiss the case against the Ohio Democratic Party last week because the Judge sanctioned me for filing what she called a frivolous motion to compel while the Ohio Dems provided no discovery to me, then the Ohio Supreme Court rubber stamped the Judge when I filed an Disqualification Affidavit. A democrat Judge asked me to break an Ohio Dems attorney no contact order in August 2024 and the Judge, Judge Julie Lynch in Franklin County Common Pleas court, ignored the Ohio Dems attorney charges until April 2025 where he was asked by court order to withdraw, delaying the case for 10 months until March 2026. The Ohio Dems attorney didn’t show for the pretrial in April and I had to start the whole case again, I decided I will write a book on the Ohio Dems discriminatory and criminal actions instead. David, you need to expose the criminal intent of the Ohio Dems. I can provide you with hundreds of pages of documents.
No politician should be allowed to keep office with a conviction but in the Justice system won’t let pro se filers win a case, they treat us like garbage. The system is rigged!

Unbelievable!
…just another reminder of the paving surface entering Hell.
You did what you could and it went sideways. Perhaps you take the ‘L’ and be grateful with the result.
And perhaps, Dear David, your naughtiness did not end with that ill-advised E-mail. The pics are shocking indeed, but nevertheless be an invasion of that person’s privacy.
I love the guy. And when lucid, you see his full potential. But there are some maladies the best minds of medicine cannot remedy. Perhaps this is one of those cases…
