IN THE
CIRCUIT COURT OF CARROLL COUNTY
WILLIAM HOGE,
Plaintiff,
v No 0616070789
BRETT KIMBERLIN, et al,
Defendants.
DEFENDANTS’ SUPPLEMENT TO THE MOTION TO DISMISS
Now come Defendants Brett and Tetyana Kimberlin and supplement their Motion
to Dismiss.
1. Plaintiff Hoge is the paralegal for a Virginia attorney named Aaron Walker.
As noted in other pleadings, Hoge and Walker have filed close to 400 civil, criminal,
contempt and peace orders against Defendants and their associates over the past
four years, all of which have been tossed out of court by one means or another.
Defendants now want to bring to the Court's attention three of those dismissals.
First, Federal Judge Motz in 2012 told Mr. Walker that the federal court would not
get involved with his “political disputes” with Defendant Brett Kimberlin, He
dismissed Plaintiff's suit out of hand even before dispositive motions were filed.
Exhibit A. Second, a few weeks later, Prince William Circuit Judge Richard Potter
dismissed another of Mr. Walker's suits against Defendant Brett Kimberlin, finding
that it was without merit and brought for an “improper purpose.”
He said the following:
It’s also clear from the various pleadings and exhibits filed in this case that
the parties have been involved in extensive disputes that have involved
political and religious issues.These various claims including criminal and civil allegations and litigations in
state and federal courts all of which appear to have been dismissed. The
most recent case filed by Plaintiff [Walker] against Defendant Kimberlin and
his two organizations was dismissed by order of the U.S. District Court in the
District of Maryland on November 28, 2012, just six days ago. In which the
Judge stated and I quote, “I deem it unwise to intervene in the bitter political
disputes between the parties.” Exhibit B.
And third, the Montgomery County State's Attorney Office wrote to Mr. Walker on
April 25, 2012 that it was nolle prossing another of his criminal charges and would
not get involved in the disputes between him and Defendant Brett Kimberlin.
Exhibit C.
Once Mr. Walker lost all these malicious legal actions against Defendant Brett
Kimberlin, he enlisted his paralegal, Plaintiff Hoge, to file more malicious legal
actions. Mr. Hoge complied by filing pleadings in multiple Maryland Courts and
Counties, even after having them dismissed over and over. Plaintiff Hoge is Mr.
Walker's proxy, continuing a reign of legal terror and lawfare against Defendants
and their associates, He has brought this case for an improper purpose to continue
his jihad against Defendants. What has changed since Judge Motz, Judge Potter and
Assistant District Attorney Keith Jacobson told Mr. Walker that they would not get
involved in his political disputes with Defendant Brett Kimberlin? Nothing except
that Plaintiff Hoge does his bidding.
This Court should follow the lead of Judge Motz, Judge Potter and Keith Jacobson,
and dismiss this case and rule that it was brought for an improper purpose.CERTIFICATE OF SERVICE

MEMORANDUM
‘Aaron Walker has brought this action against Brett Kimberlin and two organizations with
‘which Kimberlin is associated. Kimberlin has filed a motion to dismiss and a motion for Role 11
sanctions against Walker's attorney. Kimberlin’s motion to dismiss will be granted but his
‘motion for Rule 11 sanctions will be denied.
“The parties apparently have been involved in intense political disputes over the years.
Walker complains that Kimbertin has filed meritless law suits against him. He seeks a
declaration from this court that Kimberlin is vexatious litigant and requiring that he seek
‘approval from an administrative law judge before he can bring any type of action against Walker.
Obviously, this court has no authority to require a court to appoint an administrative law judge to
approve the filing of any suits filed by Kimberlin or any organization associated with him against
Welker. Alwough Walker also seeks $150,000 in punitive damages, he makes no claim for
‘compensatory damages. Thus, the claims he asserts are not cognizable. See Scott v, Jenkins, 690
‘A.2d 1000, 1008 (Md. 1997); Shabazz v. Bob Evans Farms, Inc., 881 A.2d 1212, 1233-34 (Md.
‘App. 2005).
Asto the Rule 11 motion, 1 deem it unwise to intervene in the bitter political dispures
‘between the parties. In any event, although plaintiff is cautioned thatthe institution of anyCase 8:12-cv-01852-JFM Document 33 Filed 11/28/12 Page 2 of2
similar suit in the future may result in the imposition of sanctions, I have concluded that here the
imposition of Rule 11 sanctions would not be appropriate.

EXTRACT OF PROCEEDINGS
(The Court Reporter was previously sworn by
the Clerk of the Court.)
THE COURT: We're back on the record.
The Plaintiff has brought a complaint against
the Defendant Kimberlin, and two other Defendants who arel
before the Court today personally.
Their complaint contains thirty-two counts of
which fourteen involve the Defendant Kimberlin. Counts
two, four, five, eight, nine, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen,
twenty-three, twenty-four, twenty-five, twenty-six,
twenty-seven, and thirty-two.
The Defendant Ximberlin has filed a motion to
dismiss the complaint for failure to state a claim, the
lack of jurisdiction, improper venue, and violation of th}
First Amendment.
Kimberlin’s motion to dismiss will be granted
That is motions for any additional sanctions will be
denied.
In light of the Court’s ruling on the motion12

ar

ee
to dismiss, the other pending motions by the Court are
moot and therefore dismissed as well.
Plaintiff's motion for default judgment
against the co-defendants are also denied and the case is|
dismissed.
Upon consideration of the totality of the
pleadings including the attached exhibits and the axgumenk
of the parties and counsel it is clear to this Court that|
the Plaintifé seeks two million dollars in punitive
damages, but makes no claim for compensatory damages so
that the Plaintifg (inaudible) is not recognizable under
the law.
It’s also clear from the various pleadings an
involved in extensive disputes that have involved
political and religious issues.
These various claims including criminal and
civil allegations and litigations in state and federal
courts all of which appear to have been dismissed. The
most recent case filed by the Plaintiff against the
Defendant Kimb
1) and his two organizations was
dismissed by order of the U.S. District Court in the
District of Maryland on November 28, 2012, just six daysBEE eee a eee eee
1| ago, in which the Judge stated and I quote, “I deem it
2| unwise to intervene in the bitter political disputes
3] between the parties.”
4 This Court takes the same posit
5| clear that this case is simply a continuation of meritles|
6] and vindictive litigation between the parties.
7 While the law in Virginia is clear that
8 ailing to state a claim is an issue generally addressed
9| by demurrer, and Defendant Kimberlin has not filed a
demurrer in this case.
It’s also true that Virginia law provides thal
12| the signature of an attorney or a party with any pleading}
13] before this Court constitutes a certification by him that]
14] the pleading is well grounded in fact, warranted by
15 | existing law, and is not interposed for any improper
16 | purpose such as to harass or to cause unnecessary delay of
17] needless increase in the cost of litigation.
18 ‘The Court finds that the complaint is not wel
19] grounded in fact, it’s not warranted by existing law, and
20| it’s imposed for an improper purpose as part of an ongoin|
21 | political dispute between the parties.
22 While the statute provides for sanctions by
23] the Court, this Court will grant the motion to dismiss by|33

Defendant Kimberlin.
The Court denies the motion for any further
sanctions.
The Court further finds that count two is
based upon a claim of defamation. Under Virginia law, th}
elements on defamation are:
1) Publication,
2) Of an actual statement and,
3) Intent.
In order to assert a claim of defamation
however the Plaintiff must first show that the Defendant
published a falee factual statement that concerns and
harms the Plaintiff.
But here by the Plaintiff’s own allegations
including paragraph fifty-one they indicate that the
statements allegedly made by the Defendant were not
directed at the Plaintifi.
In addition, as the Defendant has stated in
his motion to dismiss and here today expressions of
opinion are constitutionally protected and they’ re not
actual as defamation.
So as a matter of law the Court finds that the
statements set forth in the complaint do not contain14
18
16
47
18
19
20
an
22
23
provable false factual statements but are relative in
nature and depend upon the viewpoint of the speaker.
Counts four and five are dismissed for lack o!
proper jurisdiction and venue.
As to count eight, it is based on allegation
of intentional infliction of emotional distress, In ordek
to recover on a claim of intentional infliction of
emotional dictress the Plaintiff must satisfy four
elements of proo
1) That the Defendant’s conduct was
intentional and reckless and,
2) The Defendant's conduct was outrageous an:
intolerable and,
3) There was a causal connection between the
wrongdoers conduct and the resulting emotional distress,
4) The resulting emotional distress was
Even taken in the light most favorable to the
Plaintiff, the Court cannot find that the alleged
statements of the Defendant Kimberlin were outrageous or
could be the basis of any severe emotional distress.
As to count fourteen, that count is based on
the tort of interference «:

the elements of that tort includ
1) A business relationship or expectancy of 4
probability of future economic benefit to Plaintiff as an|
objective test and,
2) Defendant's knowledge of that relationshi,
or expectancy and,
3) Reasonable certainty that absent the
Defendant's intentional misconduct Plaintiff would have
continued in that relationship and,
4) The interference was by improper methods
and,
5) Damages resulted from that improper
interference.
The complaint fails to state ali of the
elements. It fails to state sufficient facts that were 4|
any way improper methods by the Defendant.
Counts fifteen and sixteen are dismissed for
lack of jurisdiction and venue.
Count twenty-three is based on the Virginia
business conspiracy. And the elements of that are:
1) An allegation of two or more persons,
2) An agreement and,
3) To willfully and maliciously interfere

with another in his trade, reputation, business, or
profession by any means and,
4) Malice, that is an intentional purpose an¢
without justification.
The given complaint fails to state sufficient
facts to support the elements of the tort and fails to
state those specific facts with reckless and
particularity.
Count twenty-four is based on the tort of
Virginia Conmon Law of Conspiracy and the elements of the
tort include:
1) Two or more persons combined
2) Accomplist by some concerted action for
some criminal or unlawful purpose, or an unlawful purpose
by unlawful and crim
1 means.
If a Plaintiff fails to allege the tort with
reckless and particularity.
Counts twenty-five, twenty-six, and twenty-
seven are dismissed for lack of jurisdiction and venue an|
for the reasons set forth herein.
Count thirty-two is based upon Plaintife’s
request for an injunction, but an injunction requires one}
irreparable harm and two, a lack of adequate remedy of16
47

law.
In view of the fact no compensatory damages
are sought, there can be no showing of irreparable harm jj
the allegations set forth in the complaint or any showing|
that the Plaintiff would not have an adequate remedy of
jaw or a claim of merit.
Therefore, the Defendant’s motion to dismiss
counts two, four, five, eight, nine, fourteen, fifteen,
sixteen, twenty-three, twenty-four, twenty-five, twenty-
six, and twenty-seven, and thirty-two is granted.
The motion is granted and those counts ere al
dismissed with prejudice. The Court shall note the
exceptions of the Plaintiff and the Defendant to the
ruling of the Court.
‘The other motions are therefore rendered moot
and are also dismissed. At the same time the Court will
dismiss the motion for default judgment against the co-
defendants upon the same grounds as set forth by the
court.
T will ask counsel to prepare an order which
simply reflects the ruling of the Court which is that the|
Defendant’s motion to dismiss is granted and the case is
dismissed.10
