Mary Sykes - demand for Mary Sykes to be produced in open Court

I understand that certain friends and family members have a pro se matter in the Federal Court pending that involves Mary Sykes. A proceeding is scheduled for tomorrow. In my opinion it is important that Mary Sykes be in Court tomorrow.


There is no basis for Mary Sykes' continued isolation from her family, her friends, and in particular her siblings and her younger daughter. That said, I understand that yesterday there was a temporary break - Mary Sykes had a visit yesterday with her siblings. Cousin Debbie was allowed by Mr. STern to visit out of the plenary guardian's presence. It is always interesting that some type of lawsuit or other extreme measure has to occur for Mary to be freed from her isolation.

As you are aware from my prior e-mails, the Judges' clerk requested that I be in Court for the hearing. The clerk discussed with me my appointment as a guardian ad litem for Mary. So that the Court has as many facts as possible before it, and we can avoid the unpleasantness that has occurred in the past:

Demand is made that you produce in open Court Mary Sykes so that the Court can observe her and make its own determinations.

It has been contended by a number of family member that Mary has expressed and continues to express her desire to rid herself of the yolk of her older daughter being her plenary guardian. It has been reported that Mary desires to be part of her church, her garden club, and live in her own home. Mary should be given the opportunity to express her desires, rather than have the Court rely upon representations of 'outsiders' who are now being accused of very serious miscreant matters.

At some time in the future there must be a discussion of the true facts concerning the numerous trips to the emergency room that Mary has endured and the circumstances. The December 2010 events are most disturbing. Mary's presence in open Court and free to express herself will do a great deal to shine light on what, if anything, has been going on.

There were some positives that were communicated to me, to wit: Mary actually was allowed to see her siblings, and was allowed to talk on the telephone to her daughter. It was reported to me that Mary regained the 10% of her body weight that she lost during the admitted guardian neglect scenario of December 2010. It was also reported that Mary was articulate and is reasonably together.

When Mary is brought to Court tomorrow please make certain that she has her hearing aids, and that no drugs are administered that will impead her ability to communicate.
