Judge Richard McQuade, Jr. of Toledo acquiesces in attorney fraud
While sitting as a retired visiting judge on a case in Bowling Green, Ohio, Judge Richard B. McQuade, Jr. specifically approved a myriad of fraudulent claims by his long time attorney friend, mentor and associate Dale R. Crandall with the able assistance of Crandall’s partner, attorney David R. Pheils, Jr.
Judge Richard McQuade, Jr. was a member of a hit-team of corrupt retired judges formed years ago by Chief Justice Thomas Moyer. The hit-team included, but was not limited to retired judges Richard Markus, Bruce Huffman, Joseph Cirigliano, Michael Kelbley, Robert Wilson, John Patton, and Stephen Yarbrough. All of these so-called judges were appointed to specific cases by Chief Justice Thomas Moyer for the sole purpose of punishing his real/perceived enemies and/or to rewards his benefactors.
It’s fairly clear that these poor excuses for judges volunteered to don “industrial strength knee pads” in pursuing Chief Justice Thomas Moyer’s so-called agenda due to the fact that Moyer was their employer and without his direct intervention they wouldn’t have earned one dime as visiting judges. Put simply, they owed their financial livelihoods to Chief Justice Thomas Moyer.
The fraudulent claims for attorney fees that Judge Richard McQuade personally approved (awarded) on behalf of his attorney friend Dale Crandall are as follows:
Even though Judge McQuade was provided with copies of court records proving beyond doubt that the above claims by his friend Crandall were false, he awarded him fees of $1,925.
In awarding these sham claims, Judge Richard McQuade had the chutzpah to state on the record that they were both “necessary and reasonable.”
Now folks, ya gotta be one big time crook to knowingly award an attorney almost $2,000 for “services he never performed.”
Rumor has it that Judge Richard McQuade demanded his normal percentage of these sham awards and/or that attorney David R. Pheils, Jr. offered him the usual 30% cut. Does it really make any difference how this actually went down?
