Anyone who has experienced difficulties with either Costco or the law firm of Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton LLP please respond and/or refer this matter to an attorney that can help me. Why? Costco's recent illegal actions relate to MICHAEL KARR the famous (purse) designer where Costco advertized a purse on Mother's Day Costco never carried. It was aired on Good Morning America. I'M STARTING A CAMPAING TO SUPPORT MICHAEL KARR, TIFFINY'S, SONY AND OTHER TO WITHDRAW THERE SUPPORT FROM COSTCO. I was an employee at Costco and they locked me in a room for and hour and ten minutes while they interogiated without legal and or union representtion. Please support this effort to expose Costco and the law firm of Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton for what they are.....

Dear Mr. Stephen m. Hinden,
My name is Brian D. McGinnis (Petitioner) case no. ADJ 7950019, SC114162, SS022063-SS022066,
B243154; AN, SANTOS GARCIA C A NO BC 458642)) the petitioner is petitioning the law firm of Hinden &
Breslavsky, as a private citizen, to file a complaint first with The Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office,
“Bureau of Investigations”, Chief Dominick Rivetti, against Senior Vice President & Administration &
Legal Officer Joel Benoliel and the law firm of Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton LLP (Sheppard

petitioners Sixth Amendment Rights the “Right of Due Process”, “Obstruction of Justice”, “Judicial

Second, the petitioner is, also, requesting the law firm of Hinden & Breslavsky to forward the petitioners
“private citizens” complaint to the Los Angeles District Attorneys office, in conjunct with Los Angeles
Superior Court Judge Debra K. Weintraub’s February 18, 2011 ORDER
(NOTE: At the exact same time Judge Weintraub was requesting Kamala Harris

civil case, were being interrogated by Ms. Lisa S. Wilcox, from the law

Whereupon, Judge Weintraub, after ordering Sheppard Mullin to produce records requested Kamala
Harris, from the United States Attorney General Office that an immediate “Investigation” be conducted,
against the law firm of Sheppard Mullins.
Third, in 2009 the Los Angeles County Bar Association cited Costco (Administration and Chief Legal
Officer Joel Benoliel) and Sheppard Mullins for Ethics violations and were rounded up. At issue was were
statements made by employees interviewed by a Sheppard Mullin partner confidential and protected by
the attorney-client privilege.
Two years later and at the same with Lisa S. Wilcox, from the law firm of Sheppard Mullins, standing
befrorethe Honorable Debra K. Weintraub, knowing that the law firm was already cited for violation of
the ‘attoreny-client” privilege interviewed the same witness the rounded up and cited f or ethics and

cited in the Los Angeles County Bar Association article dated March 2010, Vol. 33, No. 1, states that
federal criminal cases collapsed due to prosecutorial misconduct Judge Cormac J. Carney denounced the
prosecutors “shameful intimidation of witnesses, which he said, “distort the truth-finding process and
compromised the integrity of the trial. The same facts are evident below.
The article goes on to say, on page 2 “Attorney Client Privilege”, was the subject of significant decisions
in 2009. In the Costco Wholesale Corporation v. Superior Court, the California Supreme Court granted a
review after Los Angeles Superior Court ordered the production of portions of an opinion letter from
Sheppard Mullin law firm to its client Costco, and the Second District Court of Appeal denied a petition
for a writ of mandate to block production. At issue was whether statements by employees interviewed
by Sheppard Mullin partner and reflected in her opinion letter were confidential and protected by the
attorney-client privilege.

Kamala Harris, of the Attorney General’s office in conjunct with Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Debra
K. Weintraub request, to the United States Attorney
But, the issue of this complaint is exemplified by David R. Garcia from the Beverly Hills office of
Sheppard Mullin. What David Garcia argued was “their (Judge Weinberg) applicability of the crime-
fraud exception ought to turn on the “state of mind of the client with respect to the underlying crime,”
and whether or not the client engaged the lawyer for the purpose of facilitating the commission of the
crime.
What David Garcia fails to mention is what Sheppard Mullins independent actions/legal practices are as
being nefarious to the judicial system itself which as indicated below. is the independent action of the
law firm of Sheppard Mullin’s independent action(s) independent of the client? It is this premise the
petitioner’s base one of his following complaint(s) and support of Judge request that an immediate

Mullin will try and rebut the petitioners below facts. It must be noted that one of the defenses

falsely rebutted Sheppard Mullin’s “Direct Writer” Matthew X. McConnell,. And, at the hearing the
petitioner is requesting the petitioners will provide the presiding Judge with factual evidence to support
the petitioner’s position.
Second, Sheppard Mullins will also tray and claim that the petitioners complaint to Chief Legal Counsel
XXXX of the Los Angeles County Bar Association’s complaint was DISIMISSED. What Sheppard Mullins
will not tell you are there was/is a “conflict of interest” when there is a legal association within the Bar
Association that conflicts with the interest of any complaining party.
Third, that the petitioners civil matter (SC 114162) was DSIMISSED. What Sheppard Mullins will not tell

Judge Joseph S. Biderman who contacted Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Lisa Hart-Cole. who after
repeated request by the court at the petitioners XXXXX hearing, whereupon the petitioner was ready
and willing to submit his FRIST AMENDED COMPLAINT, guaranteed to, was mysteriously, DISMISSED.
Forth, what Sheppard Mullin will not tell you is Mark G. Rackers conspired with the petitioner’s
attorney, Ronald M. Canter, and the defense counsel Jay S. Cohen, from the law firm of Mullins & Fillips
LLP. To have the petitioner followed once the petitioner left his previous, September 21, 2010,

will first address the issue of his doctors (Doctor Seth Hirsh) recent assessment of the petitioner. At the
end do the petitioners last visit with doctor Hirsch the petitioner was asides as being the captain of the
Basically, Doctor Hirsh has assessed the petitioner mental unstable with reference to the 1954 movie
“The Caine Mutiny”, as the captain of a World War ship, is relieved of his command because of his

Doctor Hirsch’s assessment should have been along the lines of the famous movie “Mutiny On The
Bounty” staring Clark Gable.
But, before the petitioner address the issues described above the following must be noted. In 2009
