Sanctions Sought Against Conor Corcoran By Delco Defamation Defendants

Sanctions Sought Against Conor Corcoran By Delco Defamation Defendants –Leah Hoopes of Chadds Ford and Gregory Stenstrom of Glen Mills, seek sanctions against J. Conor Corcoran, the attorney representing James Savage in a defamation case against the pair, along with President Donald J. Trump and Rudy Giuliani.

Savage is the former Delaware County, Pa. Voting Machine Warehouse supervisor whom the defendants allege was instrumental in rigging Delco’s votes against Trump in 2020 hence giving Pennsylvania’s electoral votes to Joe Biden.

Ms. Hoopes and Stenstrom wrote The Parallel Election, one of the many places where the claim has been made.

They filed their motion for sanctions, Feb. 14, in Philadelphia Common Pleas Court.

Why Philadelphia when matters discussed are to have occurred in Delco?

Pennsylvania law says venue will be proper in the county the individual may be served or in which the cause of action arose or where the transaction or occurrence took place out of which the cause of action arose or in any other county authorized by law.

Philly is one of those “authorized by law” places.

Ms. Hoopes and Stenstrom are representing themselves.

Their motion asks that the Court enforce the Pennsylvania Rules of Professional Conduct to prevent further abuse of the Honorable Court, and protect the lives, liberty, property, and rights of Defendants.

They say Corcoran made provably false claims before the Court in written filings and oral testimony during hearings in June and November including that he had filed criminal complaints against Defendants Stenstrom and Hoopes with the FBI and Pennsylvania Attorney General. He wanted Stenstrom and Ms. Hoopes be sanctioned for tens of thousands of dollars, silenced, disarmed and saddled with a restraining order.

They say that Corcoran testified that he had made a 30-minute call with the FBI “during which he somehow failed to obtain the agent’s name or case number, nor could he recall the date or any other details of the call regarding his allegations that Defendants intended to use “incendiary devices” against Judge Erdos, Plaintiff Savage and himself.”

The motion says that Corcoran claims to have spoken with “someone” in the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s office but couldn’t recall the date, or other specifics.

They point out that these allegations not merely cost them time and money to refute but endangered their lives raising the fear they could become “swatting” victims if law enforcement had been made to believe they were violent.

The defendants say that Corcoran has a history of such actions and that his victims include clients, former Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams and the defendants’ former attorney Thomas Carroll.

  1. I assume that the J. Conor Corcoran mentioned above is the same J. Conor Corcoran who just recently had a Petition for Discipline filed against him by the Pennsylvania Chief Disciplinary Counsel. See https://www.padisciplinaryboard.org/attorneydocument/document?id=nCh3GjZ5nA09gO0ABg9p7W1Z0xJAvURDrXexlJotww0AcsMiyYOfnwOh4ep5C6odJ7c9nWYn2VxdoN9d3H0DxAFlH4dRjbHh5RrIDI60e7mOsr4_pjhcsT89MTQPSJ-P0&filename=PETITION_FOR_DISCIPLINE_FILED

    That alleges that, among many improper actions, Corcoran violated “RPC 3.3(a)(1), which states that a lawyer shall not knowingly make a false statement of material fact or law to a tribunal or fail to correct a false statement of material fact or law previously made to the tribunal by the lawyer.”

    1. Yes it is..and I spoke to Siderios attorney he said he has never seen anything like it in 39 years. We attached the petition to our motion for sanctions.
