The Right to Proper Council
California Penal Code § 182 – Conspiracy
Summary:
Why is the PERELMAN family FORCING criminal Jewish Lawyers on my with their Judge Friends, Dr Steve Levinson following me to the Car Groups, with his Judicial Family, and Bail Bond friends. In a mass operation to eradicate at all costs with empty label jusitifcatons and the criminal Psychology Community friends?
And a Judicial Aiding and Abetting Crime Ring. This starts at 5 years old.
This law makes it a crime for two or more people to conspire to commit a crime, or to falsely prosecute or frame someone through unlawful means, even if the crime doesn’t actually occur, as long as there’s an overt act taken in furtherance of the conspiracy.
🔧 Key Elements:
To prove a criminal conspiracy under PC §182:
- Agreement between two or more persons to commit a crime;
- Intent to commit that crime;
- An overt act committed by one or more parties to advance the conspiracy.
🧩 How It Applies to Refusal to Impeach Witnesses
If multiple actors (e.g., officers, prosecutors, defense attorneys, or witnesses) are working together to:
- Protect false testimony
- Suppress exculpatory evidence (like stalking video, witness credibility issues, parking ticket timestamp, etc.)
- Refuse to impeach obviously discredited or provable-false witnesses
- Obstruct a fair trial
…and there is clear or circumstantial evidence of coordination or pattern, then it could fall under PC §182 as a conspiracy to obstruct justice, suppress evidence, or even falsely imprison you.

MOTION FOR APPOINTMENT OF NEW COUNSEL
(REQUEST FOR SUBSTITUTION OF APPOINTED ATTORNEY)
TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEAL, SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT:
Defendant and Appellant Kevin Perelman respectfully moves this Court for the
appointment of new appellate counsel. This motion is based on the following grounds:
Right to Effective, Conflict-Free Counsel:
Pursuant to the Sixth Amendment of the United States Constitution and Article I, Section 15 of the California Constitution, “In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right…to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence.”
California law requires that appointed counsel must provide effective and conflict-free assistance at all critical stages of the proceedings. (People v. Marsden (1970) 2 Cal.3d 118; California Penal Code § G87.2.)
Grounds for Substitution:
A defendant is entitled to new counsel if there is a conflict of interest, a breakdown in the attorney-client relationship, ineffective assistance, or loss of trust or confidence in current counsel. (See Marsden, supra; People v. Smith (1993) 6 Cal.4th 684, 696; People v.
Ortiz (1990) 51 Cal.3d 975.)
Specific Basis for Request:
Appellant has experienced a breakdown in the attorney-client relationship, “failure to investigate/appellate issues, conflicts of interest, lack of communication, and loss of trust”.
See Attachment Letter:
Request for Hearing:
Appellant requests that the Court conduct a hearing to consider this request for substitution of counsel, as required by People v. Marsden, supra.
WHEREFORE, for the reasons stated above, Appellant respectfully requests:
-
- That the Court grant this motion,
- That new appellate counsel be appointed, and
- For any other relief the Court deems just and proper. Respectfully submitted,
Kevin Perelman, Appellant

Re: Request for Appointment of New Appellate Counsel and Formal Complaint – Case No. B343120
To Whom It May Concern:
I urgently reiterate my request for the appointment of new appellate counsel and submit this formal complaint regarding the ongoing mishandling and oversight of my appeal, Case No. B343120.
Conflict of Interest, Prejudice, and Attorney Selection Concerns
My trial attorney, Shep Alan Zebberman (#155478), was privately retained and provided
ineffective assistance of counsel. My current appellate counsel, Yisrael Gelb (#344924), is a rabbi and presents a clear religious identity. I am Jewish myself, but I have observed a troubling pattern in which nearly all attorneys assigned to me—either by the courts or CAP—share the same tight-knit community affiliation, sometimes with visible religious leadership roles. This pattern raises concerns that attorney selection, rather than being
impartial and neutral, may be influenced by factors risking divided loyalty and bias. I firmly believe that religion and law should remain strictly separate in professional legal
assignment. I request oversight and transparency to ensure fairness and diversity in attorney assignment.
Inexperience of Appointed Counsel
Yisrael Gelb, according to state bar records, has only been licensed for approximately two years. This minimal experience is deeply concerning, as my appeal involves complex
constitutional issues, alleged judicial and prosecutorial misconduct, and a significant
impact on my future. It is simply not appropriate for a case with these stakes to be assigned to an attorney this inexperienced.
Omission from CAP-LA Directory
Upon reviewing the official CAP-LA staff/panel listing (see Attachment 1), I found that Mr. Gelb does not appear as a staff or recognized panel attorney. I respectfully request an explanation of how he was assigned and whether standard CAP-LA procedures have been followed.
Lack of Notice or Communication
For the record, I have never received any official notice, written correspondence, or other communication by mail regarding the appointment or substitution of appellate counsel, relevant deadlines, or any related matters in this case from CAP-LA or the court.
All information I have obtained has come from my own online docket research or direct
inquiry. This highlights a serious breakdown in due process and communication affecting my rights.
CAP-LA Communication (Rick Lennon Email) and Inferred Denial of New Counsel Attachment 2 is an email from Rick Lennon of CAP-LA, dated September 14, 2025. While Mr. Lennon does not expressly deny my request for new counsel, he makes it clear that CAP-LA intends to keep Mr. Gelb on my case despite my repeated, written objections. The substance of the email disregards my concerns about conflict of interest, the importance of habeas expertise, and procedural fairness.
Case Docket Irregularities
Attachment 3 contains screenshots of the state court docket showing a “replace appointed counsel” notice dated 10/15/2025. I was never contacted by a new attorney, no
substitution took place, and there are proofs of service filed with dates set in the future (see Attachment 4). This raises further concerns about transparency, accuracy, and
reliability in my case record.
Systemic Pattern and History in Prior Cases
This is not the first time I have experienced such issues in Los Angeles County. I have had two prior criminal cases—Case No. 3PY03498 and Case No. 7VW04099—where similar problems occurred. Lawyers with community or religious ties, or a disposition toward prejudice or coordinated adverse action, resulted in unfair or ineffective representation. I respectfully submit that these repeated problems indicate a broader, systemic issue with how representation is being assigned and overseen in my matters. (See Attachment 5 for detailed summary.)
Comprehensive Record of Documented Complaints and Habeas Petition
In addition, please see:
- Attachment 6: My initial written request for new counsel (August 4, 2025), which has not been addressed, and a record that an opening statement was filed on 10/13/2025 instead.
- Attachment 7: Statement of Ineffective Assistance of Counsel and Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus, summarizing my legal arguments and supporting evidence.
- Attachment 8: Ineffective Assistance, Misconduct C Corruption Statement – Trial Judicial Misconduct – Notes, providing additional detail on courtroom and systemic misconduct.
Request for Immediate Action
For all these reasons, I respectfully and urgently request:
- Immediate appointment of new appellate counsel, independent from prior
attorneys, fully vetted, and with no close community or religious ties to previous defenders.
- Written clarification of CAP-LA’s process for assigning Mr. Gelb to my case, why his name does not appear on your staff/panel directory, and what supervisor-level
review (if any) has been conducted.
- Assurance that no actions are taken in my appellate matter until impartial, conflict- free, and sufficiently experienced counsel has been assigned, and a supervisor has confirmed full review and corrective action in my file.
Thank you for your immediate attention. Please ensure this letter and all supporting attachments are made part of my official appellate file. I respectfully request a formal, written response as soon as practicable.

To Whom It May Concern:
The People v. Kevin Perelman, Case No. B343120 Court of Appeal, Second Appellate District, Division Four
Dear Supervising Attorney,
I am writing to formally request the reassignment of new appellate counsel in my case, The People v. Kevin Perelman, Case No. B343120, currently before the Court of Appeal, Second Appellate District, Division Four.
I have serious concerns about a potential conflict of interest that could affect my representation. While my current appointed appellate attorney has not acknowledged any conflict, I feel there is a strong likelihood of one due to community affiliations and the circumstances of my case. Both my previous trial attorney and the current appellate attorney are members of the same small, close- knit community (the Jewish community), and my current appellate attorney is also a Rabbi. I am concerned these community connections may create both the appearance and reality of divided loyalty, and possibly an unwillingness to fully pursue claims involving another member of the same community.
Additionally, I am concerned about my appointed appellate attorney’s limited experience (approximately two years since passing the bar), which I believe is insufficient for a case of this seriousness and complexity. As an inexperienced lawyer, he may not possess the necessary knowledge or familiarity with habeas corpus proceedings. He has told me directly that he believes he is limited to what is included in the trial transcripts and docket, even though filing a writ of habeas corpus is often necessary to address ineffective assistance of counsel based on facts outside the transcript and docket.
It is especially important to note that my case may also involve significant judicial and prosecutorial misconduct. My concerns include, but are not limited to, fraudulent police reports, improper investigative practices, potential bias or unfair treatment from both the prosecution and the trial court, and witnesses conspiring with police in illegal operations. I am deeply concerned that these issues have substantially impacted the integrity and fairness of my trial, and that they warrant careful and impartial review on appeal. I believe my current appellate counsel is not adequately positioned, either in terms of experience or independence, to thoroughly investigate and argue these matters, especially where those issues involve or are intertwined with claims of ineffective assistance of counsel.
For these reasons, I respectfully request that a new appellate attorney —one with no prior professional or personal association with my previous legal counsel, not a member of the same religious or social network, and who is highly experienced with both direct appeals and habeas corpus claims—be assigned to handle my appeal. It is critically important to me that my appellate representation is impartial and fully qualified to pursue all necessary legal remedies, including direct challenges to judicial or prosecutorial misconduct and the involvement of witnesses in illegal conduct.
I trust that you will carefully review my concerns and take timely action to ensure fair representation as required by law. Thank you for your attention to this urgent and sensitive matter.
Sincerely, Kevin Perelman

To Whom It May Concern:
The People v. Kevin Perelman, Case No. B343120 Court of Appeal, Second Appellate District, Division Four
Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus
Ground: Ineffective Assistance of Counsel — Presentation of New and Extrinsic Evidence
- Petitioner’s Claim: Ineffective Assistance of Counsel
Petitioner, Kevin Perelman, respectfully seeks habeas corpus relief based on egregious ineffective assistance of counsel by Shep Zebberman, as demonstrated by facts both in and outside the trial record. This claim is supported by the following:
- Legal Standard (Strickland v. Washington) Relief is warranted when:
- Counsel’s performance was constitutionally deficient;
- There is a reasonable probability that, but for counsel’s unprofessional errors, the result would have been different.
- Statement of Facts C New Extrinsic Evidence
Discriminatory and Prejudicial Conduct
-
-
- Shep Zebberman made prejudiced statements and failed to advocate for me due to personal and community bias, as described in my declaration and corroborated by third-party witnesses and community records.
-
Failure to Investigate, Prepare and Present Defense
-
-
- Did not review or present extensive video evidence of mobbing, vandalism, and ongoing harassment in conspiring methods and events with LAPD.
- Refused to meet with me to discuss my side of events, relying solely on prosecution evidence.
-
Failure to Investigate or Call Available Witnesses
-
-
- Never investigated, interviewed, or subpoenaed witnesses who could have testified on my behalf, including:
-
- Eyewitnesses to harassment, vandalism, and provocation;
- Neighbors and community members familiar with false allegations by Officer Dinse, Terrance Scroggins, Pedram Espinoza, and others;
- Victims of Officer Dinse’s similar misconduct (e.g., federal lawsuit by Rex Schillenberger);
- Experts in police procedure and community mobbing.
Failure to hire or consult with any private investigator who could have
interviewed witnesses, gathered additional exculpatory statements, or tracked social media campaigns against me.
-
- Evidence: Declarations from available witnesses, statements from those never
contacted by defense, my own sworn declaration, investigator reports (if available), and a list of potential witnesses with what their testimony would have shown.
-
- Failure to introduce events of police harassments, intimidation, as well as witness harassment, intimidation, before and during the trial.
Failure to File Key Motions and Argue Self-Defense
-
-
- Did not file a Pitchess motion against Officer Dinse, despite his documented history of similar misconduct.
- Refused to argue self-defense even with documentary/video evidence of years-long provocation by community and police.
- Did not challenge fabricated restitution claims or expose documented blackmail efforts by prosecution witnesses. Working with their friends in the court house to pose as FBI agents for intimidation.
-
Conflict of Interest s Coercion Toward Insanity Plea
-
-
- Prioritized relationships with trial judges over client defense.
- Pressured me to accept Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity (NGI) without legal/medical basis.
-
Failure to Seek Change of Venue or Protect Against Community Harassment
-
-
- Ignored repeated, documented attempts by Officer Dinse and neighborhood watch to incite community bias, including via Facebook and public statements.
- Did not move to change venue despite mass prejudice, nor did he advise or assist with seeking restraining orders against harassers.
-
Failure to Impeach Prosecution Witnesses
-
-
- Did not challenge (impeach) perjured or contradictory testimony from key
-
witnesses, and did not present readily available impeachment material (videos, letters, reports).
Failure to Protect Defendant from Direct Courtroom Intimidation
-
-
- Did not object or seek mistrial when individuals impersonating FBI agents appeared in the courtroom with Prosecutor Orbelli to intimidate me in the
-
presence of the judge and jury—egregious misconduct designed to prejudice my defense, create an unfair environment, and reinforce false government narratives.
-
-
- Failed to raise the issue of prosecutorial collusion with these individuals and did not seek judicial intervention or police report to expose this unlawful intimidation tactic.
- Evidence: My declaration, affidavits from anyone who witnessed or heard about the “FBI” presence, court security reports, and any correspondence with court staff about these incidents.
-
G. Additional Examples of Evidence Outside the Trial Record
- Newly available police records or Bar complaints showing patterns of misconduct not included in trial evidence.
- Social media posts by Officer Dinse or others, including deleted/archived content recovered through subpoenas.
- Expert opinions now available but not sought by defense (e.g., on police procedure, mobbing, prejudice).
- Prejudice: Strickland Standard Satisfied Because of the above errors:
- The jury never heard or saw critical exculpatory evidence or witness testimony that would have undermined the prosecution’s case.
- Lack of a private investigator, lack of witness interviews, and failure to object to intimidation fundamentally denied me a fair trial.
- The outcome would likely have been different had defense counsel met even minimal professional standards.
- Prayer for Relief and Request for Evidentiary Hearing
Petitioner respectfully requests:
-
- An order to show cause and/or evidentiary hearing to receive this new, extrinsic evidence.
- Vacation of conviction and/or outright dismissal due to cumulative constitutional error.
- Evidence to be Attached (Example)
- Declaration of Kevin Perelman (listing all witnesses I requested or identified, complaints re: FBI impersonators, failure to investigate)
- Declarations/affidavits from uninvestigated witnesses, neighbors, and potential experts
- Affidavit from (or record of attempted contact with) a private investigator, if available
- Videos and audio not introduced at trial
- Screenshots/archived copies of relevant Facebook/social posts
- Security/court incident reports regarding presence of FBI agents or intimidation efforts
- Insurance, restitution, and any financial records relating to blackmail/extortion claims
- Copies of relevant Bar complaints, police records, or civil complaints

- Denial of fair trial and equal protection (California Const. Art. I, §§ 7, 15)
Pattern of Systemic Government Abuse:

- Tampering, intimidation, and long-term targeting that makes fair retrial impossible.
- Penal Code § 182: Criminal conspiracy
- Civil Remedies: 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (federal civil rights suit for deprivation of rights under color of law)
Judicial Corruption—Grounds for Dismissal Overlooked
-
- Repeated Judicial Bias:
- Judge Stephen Marcus made overtly hostile comments toward Defendant (“I’ll squeeze you out of your place”), demonstrating clear personal animosity and prejudice contrary to impartial adjudication required by law.
- Judge Gregory Dohi fabricated “mental illness” labels for Defendant with no clinical basis, belittled Defendant during proceedings, and denied valid defense motions (e.g., Pitchess motion for Officer Dinse), demonstrating pattern of prejudiced rulings.
Legal Basis: Judicial bias and partial are grounds for mistrial or dismissal:
- *Caperton v. A.T. Massey Coal Co.*, 556 U.S. 868 (2009) (extreme judicial bias may violate due process).
- Cal. Penal Code § 96, § 96.5 (corrupt conduct by judicial officers).
Court Reporter Misconduct s Transcript Tampering:
- Debbie Wollman, with a direct conflict of interest, fabricated negative mental health rumors about Defendant to judges and staff, and altered the official record (omitting
exculpatory testimony such as “Every Miata is modified”). Legal Basis: Cal. Penal Code § 134 (preparing false evidence), § 182 (conspiracy to pervert justice).
Police Officer Corruption—Grounds for Dismissal Overlooked
-
- Officer Charles Sean Dinse’s Documented Corruption:
- Used his Facebook account to incite community mobbing (“How do we FORCE people into mental facilities”), was previously federally sued for similar actions.
- Lied under oath about Defendant following him with Prosecutor Orbelli for increased
sentencing, fabricated incidents, and seized Defendant’s computer misrepresenting both its contents and evidentiary value.
- Regularly engaged in provocation and intimidation designed to escalate Defendant’s legal peril.
Legal Basis:
- Cal. Penal Code § 118 (perjury), § 141 (evidence tampering), § 182 (conspiracy), § 147 (officials depriving rights).
- Cal. Evidence Code § 1043 et seq. (Pitchess motion—officer history of dishonesty/abuse is grounds for discovery, impeachment, and, where egregious, dismissal).
Prosecutorial Misconduct—Compelling Grounds for Dismissal Ignored
-
- Fabrication, Coll, and Use of False Evidence:
- Prosecutors Lisa Orbelli and Detective Ruiz collaborated with Dinse, Scroggins and others, knowingly presenting false or uninvestigated claims to the court.
- Prosecutors enabled and facilitated courtroom intimidation—including the appearance of people posing as FBI agents during trial—creating an atmosphere of threat and
unlawfulness.
- Prosecutors injected irrelevant hearsay and prejudicial evidence into the record, repeatedly straying from the charges to paint Defendant as dangerous or unstable, manipulating judicial perception and deliberation.
Legal Basis:
- *People v. Batts* (2003) 30 Cal.4th 660, 693 (dismissal appropriate in egregious government misconduct).
- Cal. Penal Code § 118 (subornation of perjury), § 182 (conspiracy), § 96.5 (prosecutorial misconduct).
Admission of Hearsay/Irrelevant Allegations:
- Prosecutors repeatedly introduced and relied on one sided prejudicial statements and hearsay incidents—statements, rumors, alleged threats, and unrelated community disputes—irrelevant to the charged offenses, used solely to inflame and manipulate the judge and jury. – Defense counsel failed to object or move to strike these prejudicial and
improper references, compounding the miscarriage of justice. Legal Basis: – Cal. Evidence Code § 1200 (hearsay inadmissibility), – *People v. Fuiava* (2012) 53 Cal.4th 622
(admission of repeated, irrelevant misconduct evidence is reversible error).
Cumulative Misconduct Clearly Justified Dismissal
-
- Pattern of Collusion:
- Combined judicial, police, and prosecutorial bias, evidenced by intimidation, tampering, and fabrication, destroyed any pretense of fair trial.
- Egregious conduct rises to the constitutional standard where “the only appropriate remedy is dismissal,” as retrial would merely replicate injustice.
Missed Opportunities for Relief:
- At each stage—pretrial (based on evidence fabrication/transcript tampering), during trial (judicial bias, police perjury, prosecutorial hearsay, intimidation), and post-trial (restoration of rights, clerical errors)—counsel declined to move for dismissal.
Grounds for Dismissal (Relief Requested):
-
- Cumulative due process violations.
- Systemic government misconduct and collusion.
- Prejudice so severe retrial would be unjust and constitutionally insufficient.
- Legal authorities: US and California Constitution, People v. Batts (2003), Strickland. Washington (4), Caperton v. Massey (2009), Penal Code §§ 96, 96.5, 147, 182.
