State claims lawsuit against Cline should be dismissed
BETH VELLIQUETTE - The Herald-Sun - January 12, 2012
DURHAM – A lawsuit filed against Tracey Cline by a man she once prosecuted should be dismissed because the lawsuit is too long, repetitive and includes a large number of implicit assumptions and false premises, according to a motion to strike filed Wednesday in Durham County Civil Superior Court.
The lawsuit filed in September 2011 by Frankie Delano Washington and Frankie Delano Washington, Jr., complained that Cline, Durham police investigators and supervisors, the Durham city manager, the City of Durham and the State of North Carolina, framed him for a 2002 home invasion. Washington was convicted of the violent home invasion in 2007, but the N.C. Court of Appeals overturned the conviction, saying authorities had violated his right to a speedy trial and faulting prosecutors for failure to conduct timely DNA testing on evidence they collected.

NY judge: Sloppy service has legal consequences
NEW YORK, Jan 12 (Reuters) – A process server working for a once-prolific foreclosure law firm in upstate New York broke the law by failing to keep any record of papers served in a 2008 foreclosure case, a Long Island judge has ruled, giving defense attorneys a new angle to explore in foreclosure cases as they seek to buy time for their financially beleaguered clients to modify or refinance their mortgages.
Gary Cardi, a former police officer contracted by A&J Process Service — which has offices on the same floor in the same building as the foreclosure firm Steven J. Baum PC — admitted in Nassau County court last October that he didn’t have any record of serving foreclosure papers on Soledad Murillo in 2008. In fact, he told state Supreme Court Justice F. Dana Winslow during an October hearing, he hasn’t kept records of any of the “thousands” of cases he served over the last six years.
