On January 12, 2023, Fulton County Sheriff Deputies evicted a woman and children without a court order. The home was located in the Country Club of the South at 955 Tiverton Ln., Johns Creek, Fulton County, GA. The Sheriff's Deputies arrived at the home to evict former resident Derrick Jackson pursuant to a Writ of Possession (i.e., court order for eviction) entered by Fulton County Superior Court Judge, Melynee Leftridge on December 21, 2022. The court order did not have anyone else's name on it, not even the common catchall party | On January 12, 2023, Fulton County Sheriff Deputies evicted a woman and children without a court order. The home was located in the Country Club of the South at 955 Tiverton Ln., Johns Creek, Fulton County, GA. The Sheriff's Deputies arrived at the home to evict former resident Derrick Jackson pursuant to a Writ of Possession (i.e., court order for eviction) entered by Fulton County Superior Court Judge, Melynee Leftridge on December 21, 2022. The court order did not have anyone else's name on it, not even the common catchall party "All Other Occupants." The order named Derrick Jackson and Derrick Jackson ''only'' as the defendant subject to the Writ of Possession. Mr. Jackson was not home when the Sheriffs arrived. Jackson's fiancé refused to leave the home without the Sheriff Deputies producing a court order with her name on it, so the Deputies began to put Jackson's children into patrol vehicles until Jackson's fiancé finally came out of the house. A moving crew began to remove all personal items from the home, including the family safe, which they proceeded to break open and confiscate its contents. What would possess the Fulton County Sheriff's Deputies to take such Constitutionally void actions against a woman and children (whom they should otherwise be protecting)? To answer that question, perhaps the days and events leading up to January 12, 2023 shed light on the sinister motives of both the Fulton County Sheriff's Department and Fulton County Judiciary. | ||

On December 28, 2022, Navigating Justice published the article [[Karma prevails and Recusal Motion ensues]]: ''Fulton Judge circumvents jury in an 'attempt' to distribute over $40K in Registry funds'', which was moderately popular on two major social media platforms, Facebook and Instagram, garnering over 5,000 user engagements primarily from the Metro Atlanta area. The article explains how Fulton County Superior Court Judge, Melynee Leftridge, entered an order on December 21, 2022 releasing all money held in the Registry of the Court to a plaintiff despite that ownership of over $40,000 of those funds is still left to be determined by the jury in that case.<ref>[https://thewikilaw.org/wiki/images/3/36/Motion_to_Vacate_12-22-2022.pdf Motion to Vacate Order Releasing Funds]</ref> Judge Leftridge further ordered that the defendant, Derrick Jackson, be evicted immediately and further required that Mr. Jackson pay an additional $30,000 into the Registry by December 31, 2022. The defendant, Derrick Jackson (represented by attorney Matt McMaster) had already deposited over $190,000 into the Court’s Registry before November of this year, making it mathematically impossible for the plaintiff to be entitled to all money already in the Registry and for Jackson to owe an additional $30,000 in rent through December 31.<ref>[https://thewikilaw.org/wiki/images/3/36/Motion_to_Vacate_12-22-2022.pdf Motion to Vacate Order Releasing Funds]</ref> The plaintiff in the case is represented by Hall Booth Smith, an Atlanta law firm with at least one attorney on Judge Leftridge's donor list.<ref>[https://media.ethics.ga.gov/search/Campaign/Campaign_ByContributions_RFR.aspx?NameID=16478&FilerID=C2020000293&CDRID=156866&Name=Leftridge,%20Melynee%20&Year=2020&Report=June%2030th%20-%20Election%20Year Campaign Contribution Disclosure Report, June 30, 2020 (R. David Ware, Hall Booth Smith)]</ref> That donor, R. David Ware who is the former County Attorney for Fulton, was previously married to Sharon W. Ware, a former employer of Judge Leftridge according to her resume posted on [https://www.fultoncourt.org/judge/judge-melynee-leftridge fulton.org]. | |||
It is that same court order that the Fulton County Sheriff's Deputies are claiming gave them the authority to remove all residence from the property, which is completely erroneous and a complete violation of the remaining residents' Due Process rights under both the Georgia Constitution and U.S. Constitution. | |||
Following the December 28, 2022 publication of the [[Karma prevails and Recusal Motion ensues]] article, but before January 12, 2023, Deputy Sheriff Captain Leon Gates "posted a comment about the above described article stating 'Ya'll will believe ANYTHING'. More exchanges took place on Facebook between counsel for [Derrick Jackson] and Leon Gates." | |||
"Leon Gates has been a public supporter of 'Melynee Leftridge Harris' on Facebook, and the judge has publicly expressed her appreciation for Leon Gates’s support, stating specifically: “Thank you so much Captain Gates! I appreciate your support a great deal!!!!” | |||

At least one of the Deputy Sheriffs that evicted Defendant’s family told them that Defendant’s attorney didn’t know what he was doing and that the Sheriffs had a court order allowing them to evict the fiancé and children. At least one of the Sheriff’s Deputies told Defendant’s family member that they had “the judge’s phone number.” | 19.
