SAN LEANDRO | They are well known to those who follow San Leandro politics and sometimes loathed by some of their outspoken activism. As San Leandro school board member Mike Katz-Lacabe seeks the open District 1 seat on the City Council, his outspoken partner, Margarita Lacabe took out nomination papers in July to run for her husband’s school board seat.
Both face difficult roads to victory if they qualify for the November ballot. Many in San Leandro have long assumed Katz-Lacabe would seek Councilmember Michael Gregory’s termed out seat this year. However, the race could be tougher than expected. Deborah Cox, the co-founder of the San Leandro Education Foundation and Ken Pon, who also has ties to education in the city, represent tough competition. David Anderson, who ran against Gregory in 2010, is also a potential candidate.
Despite serving on the school board for the past eight years, the pony-tailled Katz-Lacabe may be more well-known for his activism in the areas of limiting government infringement of privacy. He has been an staunch opponent of the city’s use of red light cameras and automated license plate readers. In fact, the latter brought him attention of the Wall Street Journal. His criticism of the San Leandro Police Department has also made him and his wife few friends in law enforcement.
Lacabe’s reputation is less sterling and often unwittingly sullies her husband’s own public perception. She has ruffled feathers at the Alameda County Democratic Central Committee, where she is an elected member, for her in-your-face opinions. While her husband was serving on the school board, she even created a controversy related to the use of the Christmas song, Silent Night, during a school-sanctioned holiday performance. And, after helping San Leandro Mayor Stephen Cassidy win his election four years ago, she publicly asked him during a City Council meeting, “Why do you lie, Stephen?”
But, it’s not clear whether she will actually run or not. “At this point, it’s not my intention to file to run. But I want to make sure that there is at least one candidate in that race I can get behind,” she wrote on her blog. “So far, I’m not impressed by the other candidates that have puled papers – if for no other reason that they have not reached out to Mike Katz-Lacabe, the incumbent.”
Four other potential candidates took out papers before Lacabe–Latrina Dumas, Chike Udemezue, Mark Schneider and Leo Sheridan, who has already completed the filing process.
Lacabe took out nomination papers on July 18, according to the Alameda County registrar of voters. The deadline the finalize paperwork for the November General Election is Aug. 8.

A few odds and ends:
1. With her interesting stories, stories that not very many people believe any more, that supposedly she: one, has a J.D. from Hastings Law School; and two, is an international human right lawyer, the reputation of Maggie Katz is going to the dogs.
2. We should ask Michael Cats and Dogs, in other words the partner of Maggie Katz and Dogs, whether even he really believes the stories of Maggie Katz and Dogs that she is a graduate of Hastings and is also an international human rights lawyer.
3. Of course adding some Katz and Dogs to Bay area politics some might consider to be an improvement, or at least badly needed diversity, since for many years Bay area politics has been primarily composed not of Katz and Dogs but instead mostly of snakes and greedy grabbing gigs.
3. Let's ask Maggie K and D for her complete resume, since most law schools, and including Hastings, will not normally accept an applicant for enrollment unless the applicant already has a bachelor's degree. So let's have her provide the dates of her complete academic and work history, and including every college and university she has supposedly attended, the years she attended, how many credit hours she took, completed, and successfully passed at each school, her majors, her degrees, and the names of the professors and deans at each school who can confirm that she was a real, actual, and serious student at the school.
Agues, or perhaps at least maybe based on the “standards” of Maggie Katz and Dogs, I could “inform” people that I went to and studied at Columbia University, in other words the large and prestigious Ivy League university n NYC, since eons ago when I was teenager, and while visiting a friend who was a student at Columbia, during part of our visit I joined him for an hour sat next to him in a large auditorium while his history professor lectured the large group, Then after the professor's lecture, I went to the office of another one of Columbia's professors and spoke to him for awhile.
And also eons ago back when I was a teenager I took a plane that dropped me off in Boston, and from Boston I took a bus to my ultimate destination, and which was further north. When I was still in the Boston metropolitan area, and before catching the bus, I could have stopped for five minutes in the lunchrooms of both Harvard and MIT and opened a textbook and read one or two pages, and then later told everyone I had studied at both Harvard and MIT.
In fact, I am going to put a textbook in the trunk of my car, and then every time I am in the Palo Alto area, and which happens maybe once a year, I will sit on a park bench for about five minutes at Stanford University and read one or two pages. And then in the year 2018, if anyone asks me what I did for the past four years, I am going to tell him I studied at Stanford University.

So Margarita Katz-lacabe has supposedly been practicing law – BUT HAS PROVIDED NO FIRM EVIDENCE THAT SHE ACTUALLY HAS, OR IN FACT HAS EVEN EVER HAD, A LAW LICENSE.
Practicing law without a current and valid law license is a felony.
However since practicing “law” can be extremely lucrative, for instance many lawyers charge rates of two hundred dollars and up per hour (and sometimes as much as one thousand dollars per hour) – AND FURTHERMORE MANY LAWYERS ALSO EMBEZZLE AND STEAL HUGE AMOUNTS OF THEIR CLIENTS' AND FORMER CLIENTS' MONEY, AND INCLUDING SO AS TO OBTAIN THE FUNDS TO OBTAIN THE ILLEGAL DRUGS AN EXTREMELY HIGH PERCENTAGE OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SO CALLED “LEGAL PROFESSION” ARE ADDICTED TO – therefore many people who do not have law licenses pretend to be lawyers so that they can be in that extremely lucrative racket..
Also, many lawyers who have been disbarred or had their licenses suspended keep on, AND ILLEGALLY, practicing law, in other words without informing their clients that they are prohibited from practicing law.
Oh, I can think of tons of future questions we can ask supposed lawyer, and in fact supposed human rights lawyer, Margarita Katz-lacabe.
However if she has been practicing “law” and/or pretending to be practicing ” law” and/or only pretending to be a lawyer – BUT WITHOUT A LAW LICENSE – if any of this has been going on in California, then it would be extremely strongly in her best interest for her to immediately stuff a big rag in her mouth and not talk about it any more, since the California State Bar, in other words the sleazy organized crime ring that pretends to “regulate” and “enforce standards” for California's lawyers, takes an extremely dim view of anyone who practices law without a current and valid law license, and will often bring criminal charges against those guilty of said offense.
To sum up, If a criminal back in the1920's in Chicago, in other words back when Al Capone was in his heyday, had wanted to engage in regular criminal activity in a neighborhood in which Capone was strong, said criminal could not have gotten away with being totally independent, but would have had no choice but to work for Capone or make Capone his partner or to give Capone a share of his profits.
And the sleaziest major modern mafia is the present day American legal profession, and it will not tolerate any unauthorized competition. So if you want to practice “law” in California, you have to be a member of the CSB and pay the CSB its annual fee.
{NOTE: The CSB usually does not care if a lawyer: one, gets involved in all sorts of criminal activities, and such as for instance arranging illegal backroom fixes in exchange for under the table bribes or embezzling the money of his clients and former clients; or two, has such an extreme drug problem that he cannot function. (Ask Nadia Lockyer for details on whether a lawyer can stay in good standing with the CSB even if the lawyer's drug problem is so severe that the lawyer has become a totally incoherent extreme mental retard.) However if the lawyer fails to pay his or her annual dues to the CSB, and far and away the most common cause of that is the lawyer having a severe drug problem and therefore spending all of his or her money on drugs, and therefore with no money left to pay dues, the lawyer will be suspended by the CSB, and therefore lose the right to practice law.)

There seem to be considerable reasons to be skeptical of Margarita Katz-lacabe's claims of being: one, a lawyer; two, a graduate of Hastings Law School, and especially with supposedly having received a J.D. degree from that school; and three, also her honesty and integrity in general.
However according to an article in Wikipedia, the San Leandro School District in 2006 had an annual budget of just under seventy million dollars, and I would assume now it is higher, and perhaps possibly even close to one hundred million dollars.
So before we seriously consider allowing her, or anybody, to become a member of the SL School Board, it is absolutely essential that we definitely determine that the person is totally honest and of the very highest integrity, since otherwise there would be strong reason to suspect that: one, the Board member might be inclined to make decisions and award contracts on the basis of under the table bribes; and two, if subject to having his or her secrets and dirty linen exposed then also be subject to extortion.

Including in regard to the issue of whether Marga is really a lawyer, or possibly merely a weasel, phony, fraud, and professional pathological liar who only pretends to be a lawyer, go to the California State Bar's website, and which is “calsb.org,” and do a search.
When it comes up, you will see “Search” on the left side near the top. Click on “Search.”
After clicking Search, you will get a page that allows you to put in various names to see the status of different people, and such as for instance if so and so is licensed by the CSB.
So in the section for last name, try every possible combination that would possibly be likely to apply to Margarita Katz-Lacabe, and such as for instance Katz, Lacabe, and Katz-Lacabe.
On the next line try various combinations, and such as for instance Marga and Margarita.
And including since there are also so many lawyers with the last name of Katz, but also to simultaneously get both as wide a sweep and also as narrow a sweep as possible, also try typing in only the last name of Katz, but with no first name entered, but restricting the search to city, in other words by filling in San Leandro on the fifth line down.
Then, and since she might insist that the mailing address of her law office is not in San Leandro, go to the ninth line down and fill in Alameda County, and see if there is even one single lawyer registered with the CSB in all of Alameda County with the last name of Katz, Katz-Lacabe, or Lacabe who has a first name or middle name that sounds even slightly similar to Marga or Margarita.
Of course she might then insist that she is registered as a lawyer but not in California. So then go to “martindale.com” and do a search. (martindale.com lists the overwhelming majority of the nation's lawyers, and even some lawyers who practice outside the US.)
If she is still is insisting she is a lawyer, then go to “avvo.com,” and which, and similar to martindale.com,. lists many of the lawyers all over the US.
If you still have found no record of her, and even after checking the websites of the CSB, martindale, and avvo.com, then ask her which state she is registered with. (NOTE: I think you will find that most state bar organizations, and just like California's State Bar, have a website that members of the general public can go to see if so and so is really an approved lawyer in that state, and not just a professional pathological liar who only pretends to be a real and properly registered lawyer.)
And if she still insists that she graduated from Hastings, I would also ask to see her diploma, and then also confirm with Hastings that she really and truly graduated from Hastings, and with a J.D,, and that the diploma she showed you was not a forgery.

Then everyone in San Leandro would for evermore point him out as that crazy individual, who has a serious mental condition.
Now, only he/she knows how seriously ill she/he is.
Hopefully he/she is one of the harmless nuts, and doesn't evolve into someone later we see on the news, barricaded in their house with the San Leandro police trying to talk them out.
Before the internet, these kinds of people, were just sitting in their pajamas reading the Enquirer all alone.

In regard to the issue of whether Marga Lacabe has a law school degree, and possibly from Hastings Law School, even if she does that does not really prove anything in regard to her supposedly possessing intelligence and/or competence.
Plenty of people with far less than any significant level of intelligence, and including even some who have been extreme mental retards, and such as for instance Nadia Lockyer and Nancy Grace, have managed to graduate from law school.
In fact, world class mental retard Nancy Grace is not only a law school graduate but was even the editor of the law review at her law school. In other words, most so called law schools are nothing more than cesspools of lies, garbage, nonsense, and fraud totally dedicated toward turning their students into experts in perpetrating lies, arranging and carrying out phony “investigations,” and in general being parasites, scumbags, scam artists, and blood sucking leeches.
Furthermore, going through three years of law school turns many of those students into “sophisticated,” fancy talking, and “highly educated” extreme mental retards whose only real skill – and beyond being professional pathological liars, parasites, thieves, embezzlers, money launderers, and blood sucking leeches – is getting everything backwards, sideways, and upside down. For reference, look at the statements and actions of Nadia Lockyer, Nancy Grace, John Edwards, and Mike Nifong, etc.
We should stop referring to them as law schools and instead start referring to them as what they really are, and which is training grounds for criminals.
And even based on the “standards” of “law” schools, Hastings is unusually “talented” at producing tons of extreme jokers with law degrees who are far too stupid to even be qualified to work at a minimum wage job at a fast food joint and far too sleazy to be even be trusted with the petty cash drawer for a small child's sidewalk lemonade stand.

The Alameda County voters and the public need to know Marga Lacabe has a double standard.
Most people in San Leandro despise Marga and Mike Katz-Lacabe's bullying and lying.
Marga Lacabe lied on ballot statement when she campaigned for democratic central posing as a human rights lawyer when baby sitting was her real job, and she never pass the bar exam. The husband of hers Mike Katz-Lacabe who's running for office in San Leandro knowingly produced and handed out Marga's campaign flyers with her lies as a human rights lawyer that makes him as much a dishonest liar like his wife, they lied to the whole Alameda county voters.
See for yourself on page 32 from 2010 candidates list, Marga Lacabe identified herself as a human rights lawyer, we were told she was a full time nanny and 24/7 internet bully.

If Bay area residents are willing to make the type of decisions in the voting booth that would allow to us have husband and wife teams in public office, then I think Bill Lockyer and Nadia Lockyer should simultaneously run in the next election.
There are many positions Bill could consider, and Nadia could run for Drug Addicted Clown and Public Nitwit of the Century.
It is a shame that Bill did not become the governor of California, a position that for a long time he was seriously considering making an all out effort at attaining. And if he had become California's governor, there is more than a ten percent chance he would have gone on to become the president of the United States.
And if he had become the president of the US while married to Nadia, in other words the drug addict and world class mental retard, various government agencies, and including the Department of Justice, would have had to engage in all sorts of criminal activities, and including break-ins, that would have made Watergate look like a Sunday school picnic in their attempts to intimidate whistleblowers and to keep whistleblowers from telling the truth about Nadia.
Just think of the way beyond huge threat to national security it would have been if Bill Lockyer had become president of the US while married to Nadia, in other words the extreme drug addict and world class mental retard.
