This court has entered documents from the petitioner's complaint & evidence that wasn't found to be true, all charges were dismissed & expunged but yet Calvert courts decides to play ping pong with my time & finances ..I will add they reference me as an abuser... Don't settle for what this courts rules, all biased based stereotypes & simply bogus... They don't consider anyone who lives outside of the county or states. None of my legal documents were viewed nor considered..1645 monthly is taken from my employer but I have yet to get any justice.. How can you use pending charges from a different county but not consider the dismissal & expungement from another county.. NO CRIME ever took place, Calvert shouldn't have the rights to anything that happened in Anne Arundel.. The petitioner couldn't speak in Anne Arundel County ... Calvert has given me nothing but unfairness.. I will not give up although they create barriers and tons of obstacles... This is my life...Prayers to anyone who have a case in this court...

Mark Carmean, who is currently a judge shielded my abuser and sent me away for 18 months for complaining about him as a child. He went to church with my stepfather and should’ve recused himself as my juvenile attorney. When I called his judges chambers, Sean, stated he couldn’t speak to me due to ex parte even though Carmean was never my judge, nor did he ever handle my cases in any capacity as a judge. My stepfather had charges against me, he beat my mother and all of his children. Carmean doesn’t care because Calvert County will shield anybody with money and influence in general.

This court lacks accountability and fairness. They rush cases, prioritizing their time over the people affected. Unlike most courts, they don’t offer Zoom as an option, making it incredibly difficult for out-of-state individuals or those with demanding lives and jobs to participate. This creates a clear advantage for locals while others are left at a disadvantage. Courts should strive for fairness and accessibility for all parties, but this one falls incredibly short. If both parties live in the area, you will have an easier and fair trial. If one of you don’t. Expect nothing but hardship.
