3. Kevin McKeown had nothing to do with the release of Anthony Marshall

Jan 2014

As the following court orders show, Kevin McKeown had nothing to do with the release of Anthony Marshall. McKeown attempted to intervene in the case, but then withdrew his filing. McKeown has attempted to remove many cases to federal court and has attempted to represent people in federal court even though he is not a lawyer. McKeown tried to remove his eviction case to federal court four times in 2013. After paying the fee to make his filing in the Marshall case, the next day he filed another removal of his evicition to federal court, claiming pauper status. The second order, below, shows what happened when McKeown tried to intervene in Pamela Carvell's bankruptcy - the court issued an order of contempt and a writ of bodily attachment for McKeown's unauthorized practice of law and his interference with the trustee in Carvel's bankruptcy. You should check Pacer.gov for a full history of McKeown's federal litigation - all of it frivilous - all of it unsuccessful.

LORETTA A. PRESKA, Chief United States District Judge:
On June 25, 2013, Petitioner Kevin McKeown removed this action to this Court from
New York Supreme Court, New York County. On June 26, 2013, he moved to withdraw his
notice of removal. Petitioner’s motion (doc. # 2) is granted, and the Clerk of Court is directed
to remand this case to New York Supreme Court, New York County.
The Court certifies, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), that any appeal from this Order
would not be taken in good faith, and therefore in forma pauperis status is denied for the purpose
of an appeal. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962).
