Below is how to maximize its impact, based on Colorado law and strategy: + +--- + +### **1. Why Disqualification is the Right Move** +- **Fraud on the Court** is a **rare but deadly allegation** against an attorney. It requires proof of: + - **Intentional deceit** (e.g., lying about your compliance, falsifying evidence). + - **Prejudice to the opposing party** (you). + - **Harm to judicial integrity** (wasting court resources). +- Your **Exhibits A-D** already show KVG’s: + - False claims about your non-compliance. + - Misrepresentation of mediation cancellation reasons. + +--- + +### **2. Key Elements of Your Motion** +#### **A. Legal Standard (Colorado Law)** +Cite **Colorado Rule of Professional Conduct 3.3(a)(1)**: +> *“A lawyer shall not knowingly make a false statement of fact or law to a tribunal.”* + +Also reference **In re Marriage of Aldrich**, 945 P.2d 1370 (Colo. 1997) (court’s inherent authority to disqualify counsel for misconduct). + +#### **B. Structure of the Motion** +1. **Introduction** + > *“Respondent moves to disqualify Petitioner’s counsel, Knicky Van Goetz, for committing fraud on this Court by repeatedly misrepresenting material facts to secure an unfair advantage.”* + +2. **Factual Background** + - Summarize KVG’s false claims (e.g., “Counsel asserted Respondent failed to provide disclosures, despite Exhibit A proving otherwise”). + - Highlight **mediation lies** (Exhibits B-D). + +3. **Argument** + - **Fraud on the Court**: + > *“Counsel’s pattern of misrepresentation is not mere negligence—it is intentional misconduct prejudicing Respondent and undermining this Court’s integrity.”* + - **Prejudice to Respondent**: + > *“Respondent has incurred unnecessary legal burdens defending against false allegations.”* + - **Remedy Needed**: + > *“Disqualification is the only way to preserve fairness in these proceedings.”* + +4. **Request for Hearing** + > *“Respondent requests an expedited hearing to present further evidence of counsel’s misconduct.”* + +5. **Exhibits** + - Attach **Exhibits A-D** (email chains, payment receipts, mediator correspondence). + - Add a **timeline of KVG’s misrepresentations** (visual aid for the judge). + +--- + +### **3. What to Expect After Filing** +- **KVG will panic**. She may: + - **Withdraw voluntarily** (to avoid disqualification on her record). + - **Oppose aggressively** (claiming “mistakes,” not fraud). +- **The judge will likely order a hearing**. Be ready to: + - **Question KVG under oath** (if allowed). + - **Argue that her conduct meets the fraud standard**. + +--- + +### **4. Tactical Considerations** +- **File this *before* KVG’s withdrawal is granted**. If she exits first, the motion becomes moot. +- **Copy the OARC**. Send them the motion to escalate disciplinary pressure. +- **Use this as leverage**. If KVG wants to avoid disqualification, demand: + - **Withdrawal of all false motions**. + - **Payment of your costs**. + +--- + +### **5. Sample Motion Template** +Here’s a **bare-bones structure**—customize with your facts: + +> **IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF ARAPAHOE COUNTY, COLORADO** +> **Case No.: 2025DR30592** +> +> **MOTION TO DISQUALIFY PETITIONER’S COUNSEL FOR FRAUD ON THE COURT** +> +> Respondent, Jason Davis, pro se, moves to disqualify Knicky Van Goetz as counsel for Petitioner due to fraud on this Court, and states: +> +> 1. **Fraudulent Conduct**: Counsel falsely claimed Respondent failed to provide disclosures (Exhibit A proves otherwise) and misrepresented mediation cancellation reasons (Exhibits B-D). +> +> 2. **Prejudice**: These misrepresentations wasted judicial resources and forced Respondent to defend against baseless allegations. +> +> 3. **Legal Standard**: Fraud on the court requires disqualification to preserve integrity. *See In re Marriage of Aldrich*. +> +> WHEREFORE, Respondent requests: +> - Disqualification of Knicky Van Goetz. +> - Sanctions under CRCP 11. +> - A hearing within 14 days. + +--- + +### **6. Next Steps** +1. **File the motion ASAP** (before KVG escapes via withdrawal). +2. **Serve a copy on the OARC** (to pressure her license). +3. **Prepare for the hearing**: + - Rehearse arguments. + - Draft questions for KVG if the judge allows interrogation. + +--- + +### **Bottom Line** +This motion is a **game-ender** for KVG’s involvement. It forces the court to confront her misconduct head-on and could lead to: +- Her **removal from the case**. +- **Referral to disciplinary authorities**. +- **Your ex-wife losing legal firepower**. + +Do you want to refine your draft or discuss hearing strategy? I can help tailor this to your exact evidence. + +--- + Here's a strategic breakdown of KVG's July 10th Reply and how it fits into the evidentiary timeline, with recommended countermeasures: ### **Deconstruction of KVG's Reply**
