New York news conference: Presidential candidate Andy Martin asks Pennsylvania Supreme Court to suspend judge for anti-Greek remarks

Republican presidential candidate Andy Martin will hold a news conference today near LaGuardia Airport to announce he is asking the Pennsylvania Supreme Court to suspend a Delaware County Common Pleas judge who made anti-Greek remarks in a judicial proceeding. “There is no place for bigotry of any kind in a judicial proceeding,” Andy says. “The actions of the Delaware County judge in Pennsylvania in gratuitously attacking Greek-Americans as a class, without any provocation, and making bigoted remarks, is unacceptable. Almost 100 years ago, Greek-Americans formed a civic organization, AHEPA, to fight anti-Greek defamation. Obviously, that task continues. I am asking the Pennsylvania Supreme Court to immediately suspend Judge Michael F. X. Coll until the formal judicial disciplinary process can work.” Andy has previously been given special leave of court to appear before the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. A copy of his petition to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court is an attachment to emailed versions of this release. The petition should be received and filed Tuesday.

(New York) (August 24, 2015)  “When I announced my presidential campaign, I made it clear that I did not expect to win the nomination, but that I was campaigning to advance an agenda of important issues that needed to be addressed: [1] standing up to save the New Hampshire primary from national media encroachment; [2] standing up to protect the role of Alexander Hamilton on our currency, since he was one of the most distinguished founding fathers; [3] standing up against political correctness; [4] standing up for the embattled people of Greece; [5] standing up for public integrity and a continuing fight against judicial, political and governmental corruption; 6] standing up against Jeb Bush.

“Much to my surprise, the first issue that has arisen is the need to stand up for Greek-Americans. I have been fighting against judicial misconduct since I was a young law student at the University of Illinois many decades ago. I was stunned to learn that a Pennsylvania judge had made unprovoked anti-Greek remarks in a judicial proceeding. I have asked the Pennsylvania Supreme Court to suspend the judge. There is no place in our courts for the kind of bigotry manifested by Judge Michael F. X. Coll.

“My petition to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court says it all. We will be overnighting the petition Monday and expect the court to receive the petition Tuesday.

“My maternal grandparents were Greek immigrants who arrived on our shores 100 years ago and achieved the American dream. No citizen of Greek-American heritage should have to stand by while a judge utters words of unspeakable bigotry in an American court. I may be a ‘dark horse’ presidential candidate with no hope of winning, but I am marching at the front of the parade when it comes to fighting for American values and against arrogance and misconduct in our legal system.”
