A game of "diversion" and "hidden"

Information (from Latin in-formatio”, shaping, rendition) is a very broad, ambiguous term that is used in different meanings. In the most general sense, information is understood as data about what is happening in the real world. Information reduces a person's uncertainty (indeterminacy of knowledge) about what is happening in a certain part of the real world. The way to reduce that uncertainty is knowledge, or getting information about that part of the real world. How much a person gains through this process is evaluated by its amount. The amount of information can then be characterized by how the degree of uncertainty of the recipient has changed by obtaining it.


And what can its price be?


Often incalculable. To have it or not to have it means to gain, but also to lose. Often life, freedom, friends, reputation, success and illusions.



For information to be usable, it should be:

  • true (although desirable, not necessary)

  • understandable (to be without "noise" and also with details in which the devil is often hidden)

  • early (so that she doesn't "climb out like a furry blanket")

  • relevant (so that it is not "I about the goat, you about the cart")

  • ethical (not a necessary condition, like the previous ones, but desirable)

In our real world of 2021, quite a few strange events took place at that time, so that, in the spirit of the above-mentioned philosophical lesson, we also became interested in the real world of Radio ГA / ГA.


We didn't want to be swayed by the sommelier qualities of its righteous trio, because there was still something swimming in the "pure wine" they recommended and served to us.

In hot August 2021, after discovering irregularities and errors in the management of court files by judge #JH ("Dr. Hustá"), we repeatedly appealed to the address of her superior #RV ("Dr. Veverička"). We were not satisfied with her argument from the answer dated 31/8/2021 that everything we point out is crystal clear with her subordinate. In our next complaint dated September 1, 2021, we again asked her to investigate our initiative and to exclude Judge #JH ("Dr. Hustá") from deciding on the matter of discrimination due to incompetence for this type of lawsuit, due to incorrect assignment of the case by the court and mainly – for her bias.


But more on that later.


I don't want to bore you with slimy legal twists and turns of subjective legal opinions in the case of interested parties. The date of our second court appearance on 14/09/2021 was approaching inexorably, in which I was finally supposed to personally attend for the first time, and all these events, which I have only hinted at here this time, were indelibly reflected in its course.


From January 1, 2000, it became effective in the Czech Republic . This law thus implements the citizen's right to access information according to Articles 17 and 35 Charters of Fundamental Human Rights and Freedoms and introduces throughout the public domain management principle of publicity. Although it is commonplace in most countries of the world, there are still many countries where it is still being discussed and there are a few where it does not exist at all ("Kim's" Korea).


Information based on a request is provided by the so-called obligatory subject.


The simple submission template is available for download here .


As we, not yet fully familiar with the practices of the local circuit court, still did not make sense why any lawsuit against Radio ГA / ГA must always end up with the same female judge, I decided to use this law to ask the most qualified people, i.e. those at the local court.

1. Truthfulness of information


On 12/10/2021 I sent the following request for information through my "databox":


On 22 October 2021, it was delivered the following response to the data box. along with the requested information.


Currently, this table has at least 2 more rows, and in practice the assignment of lawsuits to the same judge continues.


2. Clarity of information


In the spirit of this post, let's focus on the details of the information, because as they say, the devil is usually hidden in their details.


Originally, I didn't expect this table to have so many rows. On the other hand, I'm tearing out non-existent hair today, why didn't I ask for a longer time slot. Perhaps the cases of my and your former colleagues, described in my former post I will make you unemployed here. Or maybe even someone who experienced ones hell in the court carousel under the baton of Radio ГA / ГA even before 2015.


I'm giving this as inspiration for those of you who, for God's sake, wouldn't be able to sleep. And you can use this useful link .


Most of the entries in this table refer to payments made by Radio ГA / ГA to the account of the relevant District Court of Prague 10 in 2015-2016, more precisely in their total of 22 months. Anyone who normally uses a calculator will recognise that these are not small amounts.


I would like to point out here that these are amounts in "hard" US dollars and that money are "held" in judicial custody. According to item 14 of the schedule of court fees, this money must be charged 1% of the amount of money over 25 thousand crowns, as a court fee.



A sum of around a quarter of a billion in our highly inflationary currency started to make sense to me. What about the court fee? Brother, something around 2.6 million crowns. How was they dealt with?

3. Timeliness of delivery of information


And so another question followed, this time on November 3, 2021. By the way, on the eve of our last court hearing in both lawsuits and, as stated earlier, unsuccessful for us.

Holt, hard is the fate of the unteachable.

On 15/11/2021, a partly negative answer rang in our "data box" from the Circuit Court, which convinced us that we were starting to touch bare nerves. The reason for the rejection of our application was calculated at the amount of CZK 1,049 and the justification of "more work" was calculated as follows.



I quietly hope that the author and sender of the previous information did not suffer much internally for the public information provided.


4. Relevance of information


Those of you who know me know that I'm not a "cutback" and more of a "FIDO" (aka "Financial Adventurer"). However, this amount for this information seemed to me to be "irrelevant", to use the language of the legal tribe here, so we specified our new request for information on 11/16/2021.


On 22/11/2021, we finally received the desired answer, which confirmed our suspicions.



5. Ethical aspect of information


So what is the mission of Radio ГA / ГA? What does its moral code say?


Is it really in its mission to finance the Czech state budget?

I can't find it here in its English nor Russian version. Unfortunately, as I wrote before, the Czech version is missing. That it would be like that on purpose?


Is clientelism in the moral code of the company as one of the ways of promoting the interests of its mission?

I'm trying, but can't find it here . Who will help? Maybe the "info law" will help again.


In part 5.) of the "code of ethics" of the company Radio ГA / ГA is written:


The Company prohibits the use of its funds to make payments to any person, company or organization to obtain favorable treatment in securing business, intelligence resources or other special services , regardless of perceived benefit to society unless such payments are (i) made pursuant to a written agreement signed by an authorized representative of the Company and (ii) do not violate the laws of the United States of America or the country in which such payment is made


One could further speculate here as to who was signed under the requirement to secure this deposit.


At the time, #LA ("Dr. Leklá Andělka") was a newly started with a task from her breadwinners to show off according to the well-known "you either make yourself or you're done", or maybe then and now the highest in this basic food chain and pulling behind the threads of #KF ("Kristína Fšetko")?




 

So, let's finally take a look at the game of Diver and Hide. The rules are very simple and if you are at least a bit of a playful type, you won't be able to resist playing it too.


  1. Take approx. 250 million crowns and assume the role of a spreader of all-embracing goodness and moral chastiser. If you do not have the specified amount, use any fictitious replacement in the amount corresponding to your possibilities, in money, in matches, or perhaps in coffee beans.

  2. Consider its use according to the following options: a.) depositing the entire amount in escrow at the court with a fee of 1% of the deposited amount, so you will pay another approx. 2.6 million crowns b.) storing the entire amount of money in attorney custody with a fee according to the price list here, so you pay 48,300 CZK and 40 CZK for each 100,000 CZK started above, by which the value exceeds 10,000,000 CZK c.) you will keep the money in a savings account with your established Italian bank, or in its fixed-term savings account, and according to the agreed conditions, you will earn, according to the conditions at the time, up to 10 million crowns

 

How would you decide?


That you would choose option c.)? Mistake.


The man in a dark-blue jacket, white-red striped tie and with a white star in his lapel wins.

It is option a.) And the reason?


This will get you a committed client, and the few extra bucks that this decision cost you will pay you back many times over in the future. Everyone sometimes needs the services of the courts and a lawyer. And besides, it's not your money, is it? US tax payer pays!


As the communists used to say - "the resources are there"! And #UTP ("US Tax payer") will (surely be happy to) pay for it.


After this discovery, many of my friends expressed genuine concern for my future. It is said that those 260 million crowns could be sufficient reason for me to suddenly manifest a boyish desire to fly. It is said that the terrace on the fourth floor of an apartment building, where once an unknown emissary of Radio ГА / ГA delivered my resignation to me, could be a decent basis for this secret hobby of mine. Or could it happen that "someone" from there could take care of my next dismissal from work? That they already know how to do it.

Well, I really don't know.


It's so un-American, isn't it! Don't you think? Or am I too naive again?


About whether they were right, or how we were judged locally after this discovery, sometime next time - if there will be any.
