UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT                                        DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA       CATHRYN CATON,           Petitioner       vs                                                                                                   CASE NO. 10-MC-543        ERIC HOLDER,ET AL.,              Respondents --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------                                      MOTION TO EXPEDITE HEARING                    COMES NOW Cathryn Caton, Petitioner, proceeding pro-se, hereby invokes her Due Process    rights under Haines Vs Kerner, 404 US 519(1970) and files her "Motion to Expedite" in order to    preserve the integrity of her witness testimony, which is under direct pressure from the    defendant's named in Petitioner's Motion to Appear Before a Grand Jury, and who live in fear    of their personal safety. In support thereof, petitioner Caton submits the following, to wit;         The bad faith actions of the defendant government officials, threatening the two de-     fense witnesses into silence has been, in the Ninth Circuit, deemed serious enough to war-     rant intervention by the Court. See United States V Lopez,4 F3d 1455,1463 (9th Cir.1993).     The allegations contained in the original complaint, detailing the government defendants'     actions of submitting falsified statements concerning these two witnesses, alluding to the     assertions that these two witnesses gave sworn statements supporting the government's version     of the facts of the case when, in fact, they did not do so, are of sufficient seriousness as to     warrant the imposition of immediate action by this Honorable Court. Any further delays will     ensure eroded memories, loss of evidence to prove Petitioner's claims, loss of will by the     two witnesses to further involve theirselves in the instant case, despite their being the     sole eyewitnesses to falsified statements of the government defendants, the sole witnesses     in which the events that the government defendants' manipulated for the retaliatory motives     and objectives.  In sum, an expedited hearing on the orginal complaint is needed to pre-     serve the witnesses from further threats to their safety and to provide a setting in which     the witnesses feel safe enough to testify to the truth of the matters, which will endanger     the careers of the two government defendants and possibly end up in their prosecution. Fur-     thermore, the integrity of the judicial system is at stake which affects the entire public     spectrum.                          WHEREFORE premises considered herein, Petitioner Caton respectfully prays that this     Honorable Court grant this motion and Order an Expedited hearing as soon as judicially fea-     sible.     DATED:  September 14, 2010                                       RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED,                                                                   CATHRYN CATON
