Subject: Restraining order reform
To: Mike Guasco <MGuasco@butycurliano.com>

Mr. Guasco,

Your abuse of the Justice System has motivated me to begin work on the creation of legislation for restraining order reform, specifically citing those attorneys who use them as a weapon and not as a protective measure. As I have heard from various legal sources, you seem to be at the top of the infamous attorney list of dubious notoriety for restraining order abuse (Amongst your other nefarious "attributes" of the bending of law as I myself have witnessed).

 

The way you have twisted a system that was intended as a means of safety for those in sincere need of help against possible violence perpetrated against them, is a mockery of the law and of the women and men who honestly rely upon it. You create animosity and hard feelings. You have looked at the law as would a criminal, or a con artist. You have not looked at it as a means of help, you have turned it into a weapon of hurt.

 

You turned a shield against terror into a means of proffering terror (against innocent human beings. )  To me, that is NOT law, that is a form of TERRORISM!

Law is not a game of winning at any cost, which is how you have perverted it to mean. It is supposed to find truth and equity. I abhor your sense of cruelty and abuse of power and the Court and try and call it law. As I mentioned, you spit in the face of the Court each time you abuse another of your victims through it and then expect others to give it, or you any respect. An officer of the Court who flagrantly abuses its own law family is repugnant! There is something intrinsically wrong about your thinking.

 

I believe the Court needs to file a restraining order against YOU!

Things will change and you can thank yourself for being the impetus for the change. Don't worry, I will make certain you are given full "credit" for your role in it.

Sincerely,

Cheryl Petrovich

​Mr. Guasco,

Please stop trying to manipulate me mentally.

It is beneath you, and it is not kind to do to 

someone who is suffering. You (and Marija Petrovic) 

subverted the law, (easy to prove) set traps to
make me think my safety was in jeopardy to make 
me react. You gaslighted me, yet you continue to 
berate me to make me feel even worse. Why?

I also have no problem seeing through your 

psychological maneuvering attempts. I get it. 

You want me to get your message that 

Dr. L wants nothing to do with me. 

He has done nothing to contact me, which says 

he complied with the rules (albeit, false rules in
this case). I was myself trying to comply by asking 
if I could go to my medical appt. You said no, I did 
not keep it. So that is where it stands. I did not 
deserve your terribly abusive tirade, and the 
imaginative "apology" story. I have been trying to 
cope the only way I know how, by writing a diary 
of my thoughts, poems and also prayer; they are all
 I have right now.

It does not look good for you to bully someone in my 

health condition, and someone who has complied
fully with that joke of what you call law. ​It was 
false from start to this point. So, putting me into 
jail (and bragging about it) will be construed as 

False Imprisonment, and with all the abuse, a
felony.

What I don't understand is why you think the law is

just a loose guideline, not to be strictly adhered to,
 but that you can make into your own specifications.

There is barely even a small part of it you left 

untainted. Remember, nothing that starts off false, 

ever becomes good. It is like trying to raise the 

dead; it is not going to happen.

I have this story of abuse, my poems, my diary of 

thoughts as they arise and a myriad of interesting 

things about myself, my family and my ancestors, 

who were quite famous, if not illustrious; I will 

have no problem getting my story out there.

I do not understand why you feel compelled to 

go down such a negative path in life. It does no one

any good, and could harm your soul. Even if you do 

not believe in such a thing; do you want to risk it? 

Plus, wouldn't you rather be loved and cherished 

as a decent human being, instead of reviled, 

and thought of as a sneaky, untrustworthy, 

devious person who would step on anyone to win? 

I have poured out my pain, and my anguish, you know 

this was all contrived, and yet you continue to 
berate me, and put me into further humiliation
 and torment me, and risk further harm to my 
health. Why? 

Why do you want to be that way? You cannot 

force everything in life. You need to understand 

that, and so do your clients. What you do is not law; 

it is street gang/thug mentality/activity.

There will be a bright light shining on this whole 

issue, and perhaps an investigation. As time goes by, 

the truth will no doubt be revealed even more 

clearly. Stop pretending you have right on your side, 

when you obviously do not. You allowed terrible 

atrocities to be done to an innocent person. 

That is not a boost to a resume.

Do the right thing.

Sincerely,

Cheryl Petrovich   

I was harassed and mentally manipulated by Kaiser psychiatrist, Marija M. Petrovic, at the Kaiser Daly City facility, and by telephone, in an attempt to stop me from being a patient, and acquaintance of my vascular surgeon. Someone close to my vascular surgeon, must have been threatened by the mere friendship of myself and that doctor, and brought her in to "neutralize" me! My appointments with him were obviously monitored, and he was told to treat me badly, so I would not want to be friendly toward him. He must have been threatened, or under mental duress, because when the appointment was over, and I had to return afterward, a couple of times, for one reason, or another; he returned to his normal behavior I knew of him to have. 

Marija Petrovic, amongst other things, would call me at various times, and tell me that my doctor hated me, or would accuse me of stalking him, and other cruel things that came out of her hateful mouth. She would be so sadistic, that I would break down in tears and despair. Why was she even involved in my business with my doctor? I began having terrible nightmares, and couldn't sleep.She would suggest that my doctor thought I might hurt him, which prompted me to go out and get a lie detector test, that proved I was no danger to him. She tried to make me jealous by saying we were rivals for him. She had the people in charge refuse to help me when I requested it. She was obviously very adept at mental manipulation.  Suddenly doctors at Kaiser So. San Francisco would say horrible things to me, and call me, a "bad person." I think that there were things planted in my chart to make doctors who looked in it react badly to me. One doctor even said it was something he saw in my chart; but would not clarify his statement. The head of security accused me of an, "inappropriate behavior" toward my doctor, but would not explain his statement either. It was so far from the truth! I am a quiet, shy widow, with MS, and I have been attacked myself. The absolute horror of being victimized, made me empathize with other victims; I would never be an attacker! I heal people; I do NOT attack them. People who do such things are inhuman, and filth. They take an essence of a person's life away. I have never harmed anyone in my life.  I was scared, because I felt like I was being framed for something I did not do! I was told by that same head of security, that since Kaiser was a corporation, I did not have to be told what I did, and that I had no rights there! I was told I could not contact my doctor in any way. I tried to contact Kaiser So. San Francisco management, and head of Risk Management for help. I got none. No return calls, nothing.

Marija Petrovic used my kindness, and issues of abandonment against me, and cut me off from my friend suddenly, and without explanation. I was made to feel as if I were going to be accused of some invasive crime. I was so anxious to get answers, so I kept seeking them. I eventually ended up with a restraining order because of my seeking answers. I noticed that some signatures in the legal court documents were suspicious looking to me; so I had a handwriting expert look at them. Her findings were that Marija Petrovic had signed a signature of an attorney who worked for Kaiser hired law firm, Buty & Curliano; and most likely also signed the signature of the doctor's too. Marija Petrovic certainly does not seem like your usual psychiatrist, with her covert methods. She harmed, she did not heal. I cry every day. I know there are things I don't even remember that she planted in my head. She knew how important my friend was/is to me; so she made certain that she suddenly cut me off from any communication with him. She had said she thought I had PTSD, which comes about from sudden traumatic events. It is cruel and sadistic to either purposely cause it in a person; or evoke a response that could have even caused self- harm because of it.  She did numerous other things too; too many to put here. She made my life Hell for many months! She needs to be investigated. I don't want her using her covert style skills to harm anyone else either! 

I asked Kaiser, VP and in-house attorney, Mark Zemelman, several times to investigate this matter; but he refuses! Why was a newly hired "psychiatrist" allowed to weld such power over a patient, a doctor, and an entire medical facility? It is so very strange! This is NOT the way a healthcare facility should be run! Please help me to force Mr. Zemelman to find the truth! I suffered, and am still suffering from the outrageous treatment I received at Kaiser! I am a good, decent, caring person; I do not deserve this!

Thank you! 

I was a patient of Dr. Gregory Lukaszewicz, Vascular Surgery and I was doing great. He was so concerned about my health and progress and he understood the complications associated with my health issues, whereas the doctors outside his specialty did not. His understanding of the complexities of my health issues and the interconnection they had with other health issues was refreshing. Many doctors will treat symptoms and not understand the real cause. So, if a patient has a disease that causes them to look overweight, they tell you to "lose weight." But, they are ignoring the heart of the problem and losing weight is not the entire answer. A person with lymphatic issues is not going to just "lose weight" It is complicated and is not a matter of food ingestion; it is a matter of lymphatic fluid buildup. At any rate, Dr. Lukaszewicz saw how I struggled with the misunderstandings I ran into and helped me with more of the health problems I had that were directly as a result of lymphedema/lipedema, thereby avoiding misdiagnosis and possibly avoiding the medications that were unnecessary. It was a relief to be treated like a human being, not a shunned fat person. He sees beyond the obvious symptoms of heavy limbs, he sees the person inside. He does not make a person feel embarrassed, or weird; he is an empathetic person and knows it isn't their fault anymore than having Parkinson's is their fault. A lot of doctors don't look beyond the size of a person. He does and he wants to help.

I thanked his kindness with a few small gifts, which I have always done for those who go above and beyond for me. Nothing could repay the kindness, but it was a physical token of my great regard and gratitude. But, what did those in charge do to that kind, nice picture of gratitude? They hit me with a RESTRAINING ORDER! AND they forced my doctor to put HIS NAME on it! I was made into a PARIAH! I have been TORMENTED! I have been through a NIGHTMARE of legal woes, and I was THROWN INTO JAIL! Kaiser (twice arrested) attorney Mike Guasco and law firm, Buty & Curliano, decided that a person who gives a GIFT to her doctor DESERVES to be BRUTALIZED through the legal and justice systems! They have an intricate system of Kaiser employees who came to life and made subtle and not-so-subtle attacks against me!

I made complaint after complaint to Kaiser, but I got NO help back! They listened to my complaints and did NOTHING!

Kaiser allowed a revolving door psychiatrist, Marija M. Petrovic to be hired to come in and attack me with psychological torment: blindsiding and gaslighting and putting false major mental illnesses in my chart to discredit anything I say, or perhaps a reason if I am found dead "somehow". She created a complicated plan of lies, confusion and false accusations to stimulate me to ask why things were being done to me, and then she used my searching AGAINST ME to get me a TRO (temporary restraining order). THEN when I tried to get an attorney, "somehow" I could not find one.

Without an attorney at the first hearing of a restraining order, a defendant is S.O.L.! I got a 30 month (2.5 years) restraining order and Mr. Guasco put my name in a POLICE database, so that if I drive anywhere and get pulled over, I am looked at like some scum bag. It is INSANE! I gave away my deceased husband's vintage rifles, since "desperate criminal  characters" such as the gift giving type "criminal" as myself, could not be trusted with weapons & if caught harboring them, could go straight to jail!

Each time I tried to get an attorney, I was turned down, but after the important hearing was over & my fate was sealed, they somehow managed to come out of the woodwork! I had two, but they were never really mine; they worked for the Kaiser "team" They were both foisted on me, one by deception (Charlie Smith, Redwood City) and one (Donald Bloom, SF) who called me saying he heard I needed an attorney. Charlie Smith approached me & said he was with the Private Defender Program, but I called them & they denied it and anyway, mine was a civil case and they only took criminal cases.Who paid him? What he did was yell in my face & helped me get jailed. Mr. Bloom was lethargic, kept me quiet and did nothing effective. Even when the judge invited him to contest the restraining order, he refused. He said I would never win...even with a formal invitation from a judge? THAT said a LOT!

Anyway, that judge retired suddenly, & in stepped Judge Lisa A. Novak. She acted nothing like a judge. She insulted my mental health, she wouldn't allow me to talk on the witness stand for more than a second,interrupted & had what I said stricken from the record. Charlie Smith sat there like a lox and did nothing & let me be JAILED!

Mr. Mike Guasco, Kaiser attorney, used forgeries & lies in his court papers. He used false evidence that he did not file w/the court,or even share & said he could us that "evidence" to keep me restrained FOREVER! He extended it 2 yrs! KAISER LET IT ALL HAPPEN! BEWARE! YOU COULD BE NEXT!

Dear Bar Association:

ATTORNEY COMPLAINT

(Please bear with my repetitions in this, but it is complicated and rather unavoidable for me)

I am writing to make a complaint about attorney Mike Guasco. (Guasco, Michael C, Active, 258765, Oakland, December 2008.)

He has been the torment of my recent life. He falsified a restraining order against me and included forgeries (verified by experts) false contempt charges that got me put into jail and lies (And lying in court filed documents) and much more. He is abusive to the point that a person would feel as if he and his partner in it want their (Me) target dead.



I am a senior widow with MS and a variety of health issues as a result of a year of harsh, experimental chemo on a rare cancer. The events leading up to my being served a TRO and subsequent R.O. began at Kaiser South San Francisco. I was a patient Dr. Gregory C. Lukaszewicz, MD, in the vascular surgery dept. due to the year of strong chemo ruining my veins ending in my having lymphedema and lipedema. Those vascular disorders cause legs and other body part to become swollen and in strange shapes and can make walking difficult. My doctor helped me to feel less of an abnormal person and supported me so that I felt more like an accepted part of society. He took over the role of my general healthcare and emotional support. He brought me back to life. I gave him a few gifts that he graciously accepted, but word must have gotten back to Kaiser and people there who seemed to involve themselves in the situation and Dr. Lukaszewicz was forced by Kaiser hired attorney, Mike C. Guasco and his unofficial assistant, Marija M. Petrovic, to serve me with a TRO. Dr. Lukaszewicz attended my gallbladder surgery, at my request at his peril with Kaiser. I mistakenly left him a VM message thanking him. A week later, Mr. Guasco served me with a TRO.



Mr. Guasco works for a law firm called Buty & Curliano of Oakland, CA, a contracted law firm for Kaiser Permanente: Buty & Curliano: 516 16th St. Oakland, CA 94612, phone: 510-267-3000 ext. 304.



Mr. Guasco used a Kaiser Serbian psychiatrist named Marija M. Petrovic to make a plan against me to get me looking like I should possibly get a restraining order, Entrapment. She used personal (for me) psychological stimulus, gaslighting and mental manipulation to make me look bad, then Mr. Guasco came in with the illegal/legal legal side of things. They worked as a team along with security guards and a variety of Kaiser staff and doctors. They seemed to have carte blanche to use the hospital and staff for their plan. They were over the top with their intensity attain their goal to get rid of me. I believe they have a real target and it is not me, I was merely in their way. Since I did nothing but give a few gifts for which I was thanked. I believe they were afraid of my loyalty to Dr. Lukaszewicz and knew I would do anything to help him so they found a way to get me out of the way for (I believe) a predatory purpose. They behave like desperate people and attacked me with relentless intensity. It is still apparent now, with great intrusion into my personal life. It feels like my life has been hacked. My Kaiser online account has been closed down, my facebook account has been closed down and I cannot find any way to open it again. I suspect more being done to me, but I cannot as yet confirm it. I do know that I have been blacklisted, so I have not been able to hire an attorney of my choice.



They must use great “persuasion” for the way they got people at Kaiser (staff and doctors) to participate. I was yelled at, refused treatment, had strange things said to me and treated roughly. I never had such abysmal treatment at any Kaiser prior to their involvement. Marija Petrovic used psychological manipulation, fear and intimidation and tailor made a plan that incorporated my weaknesses and vulnerabilities so when I eventually fell into the trap she closed in for the legal kill and had Mr. Guasco take over the legal end of things (except for incorporating her forgery expertise.) Psychological warfare is what it is called. She and Mr. Guasco pulled no punches. They also tried to make me think it was all my fault; Mr. Guasco has a standard comment I have read about (He used it on me too) where he says: “You brought this all on yourself.”



It is obvious that Mr. Guasco uses TROs/RO as his weapon of choice to weaken his opponent and then has them blacklisted just in case they can afford an attorney. I was not able to find an attorney, but one found me (Donald Bloom, SF) and called me saying he heard I could use an attorney. I was desperate so I agreed to hire him. Naturally, that attorney was not working for me. I paid Donald Bloom who did the least effective legal work for me. He was basically there to keep me quiet and yell at me. I spoke up in court and Mr. Bloom was not happy, but my speaking up prompted Judge Livermore (ret) to say, “This is very well likely an invalid restraining order, I invite you to contest it.” Mr. Bloom refused to help me contest it, even with the judges invitation. He yelled at me, called Dr. Lukaszewicz an asshole and dropped me as a client. He told me that if I ever contacted him again, he would give me a restraining order. He was angry, but there was fear behind the anger.



Mr. Guasco seems extremely predatory and overrides his “client” and does what he wants as if it were personal and his own restraining order. He is much too personally involved, like he has an important personal agenda. He acts like he is in charge of my doctor’s wishes and leaves him out of the legal process and lies and has Dr. Lukaszewicz’s signature forged, most likely by Marija Petrovic, according to an expert. (It is because it was NOT my doctor’s idea to give me a restraining order). That was never more clear than when Mr. Guasco went to court to extend the false restraining order against me, which was confirmed by my doctor’s absence in court, he made no written statement to say he wanted the R.O. extended, his signature was forged (Expert verified) and Mr. Guasco checked off the portion of the paperwork that said the Plaintiff was present when in actuality, he was not. Mr. Guasco said he had “evidence” that I never saw, nor was filed with the court, nor did the judge appear to have either. I know I had done nothing to deserve an extension (Nor any of it from the very beginning, for that matter).Mr. Guasco mocked and taunted me outside the courtroom saying he could keep me restrained forever using the same “evidence” and said that I seemed to still want a relationship With Dr. Lukaszewicz. How he came up with that is strange, because I have not communicated with Dr. Lukaszewicz personally for over 3 years. Mr. Guasco really seemed to enjoy sticking the knife into me and twisting it. My son heard him and he also saw that the plaintiff was not present in court that day. He also knew I never saw the “evidence.” (I go into that further down). Basically, I feel that Dr. Lukaszewicz has been the target all along. I was used as a distraction, the scapegoat and I was in their way, because they knew from my voluntary lie detection test that said, “I would do almost anything for him.”



Mr. Guasco and Marija Petrovic terrorized me. There is no other way to put it. It was on a par with a psychological thriller. The film, “Gaslight” comes to mind. I think as a couple they constitute terrorist activity. They have far reaching “tentacles” and smear my name. The sad thing is that I kept the higher ups at Kaiser informed of everything and made many complaints, But their (Guasco & Petrovic) professions give them more gravitas over an average person. It is a perfect cover for hiding bad deeds.That has been the case all along. I have seen online, stories with similar elements as mine concerning Mr. Guasco, his lies, use of restraining orders and his cruelty toward innocent patients and forgery. He does a wonderful job of turning an innocent situation into a near criminal matter.



My story stretches over a long period of time. It makes the situation more convoluted and difficult to retell. There are a lot of elements that sound unbelievable, but one must remember that a person with a background in psychiatry is behind it and knows how to weave a good story. In my case, I believe they wanted me away from my doctor so he would not be my friend and confidant. I believe my doctor is the actual target for monetary reasons. Marija Petrovic may well likely know Dr. Lukaszewicz’s domestic partner, Dr. Moayeri. They are both in the field of neurology at Kaiser. Marija Petrovic’s brother Marko, is also in Kaiser neurology and both worked in northern CA (SF) neurology along with Dr. Moayeri. Marija Petrovic has been the go to person to get rid of Kaiser’s “problem patients”. Her picture in the roster of Kaiser doctors is at least 15 years old. Yet, she claimed to have been hired in June of 2015 until I mentioned in an email to Kaiser that I thought it was strange that Dr. Lukaszewicz’s mother died right around when Marija Petrovic arrived (back at Kaiser) I suddenly noticed that Marija Petrovic said in a public forum that she had been hired at Kaiser SSF in August of 2015, instead of June. Strange thing is that I had an appointment with her in early June 2015. Now, my Kaiser online account has been shut down. I have no access to my online records any longer. I worry very much about collusion between the three of them to harm Dr. Lukaszewicz for his money. (I do not believe Dr. Lukaszewicz is married to Dr. Moayeri, as was told to my by a P.I.) I think they worried he might want his freedom and I would help him and his monetary support would be gone. I don’t care about what he has, I just want him safe and alive. I was really worried about Dr. Lukaszewicz, especially since on time he called me from home and sounded really frightened and quickly hung up. It has haunted me. Once I asked Dr. Lukaszewicz’s local PD to do a welfare check at his home. Mr. Guasco turned my good intention into an ugly thing and said it was my way of stalking Dr. Lukaszewicz. I was amazed that anyone would turn a concerned gesture into something malicious. I guess it is the way certain minds work. I think he very well could have been at Dr. Lukaszewic’s house and it scared him that he was caught, or something. I want to be transparent about the predatory behavior toward Dr. Lukaszewicz, because if it is well known he will be safe. I am scared to death with worry for him. He is a kind and sensitive and the most caring and lovely person I have ever known. I have been away from him for so very long with the false restraining order, but if he needed me nothing would prevent me from helping him. I supposedly got a 30 month restraining order for giving him gifts of gratitude and some sort of romantic impropriety (I did nothing of that nature, nor did he.) Mr. Guasco has been abusing restraining orders. Even people who committed violent crimes have gotten much shorter restraining orders. The entire restraining order and the contempts and being put into jail were criminal activities. I was thrown into jail and I suffered miserably. I was frightened, in shock and my MS was giving me terrible symptoms. I was treated like scum by some sheriff’s in jail.



I was told by a neurologist that I have a large lesion on my brain that has not become as yet, active. Stress is not good for me, because it could become active and perhaps kill me. Mr. Guasco and Marija Petrovic have had many people yell at me, especially the attorney Mr. Guasco pretended was with the Pvt. Defender program, but was not. Mr. Charlie Smith (San Mateo, CA) yelled close to my face and tormented me. He cleared the courtroom and then Judge Novak said such horrible things to me, that I think I lost consciousness for a moment. She also heckled me from the bench calling me stalker and other cruel things. I was not told about a hearing and Mr. Smith did nothing to prepare. He put me on the stand and said, “tell them why you think this is a false restraining order.” I was confused as to where I should start, so I began at the beginning. Judge Novak stopped me every few seconds and had most of what I said stricken from the record. She said, “no wonder the doctor is afraid of you!” She disparaged my mental health. All I could do was sit quietly and listen to it all. One time when Charlie Smith’s involvement in false contempt charges were finished and I had no attorney, Judge Novak said I needed to take an attorney from the Pvt. Defender program (of the Bar Assn.) to “represent me" for a trial. I knew I would end up with Charlie Smith again, so I said no. Judge Novak was grinding at me to say I would again take a (fake) Pvt Defender attorney. She said that if I did not go with the program she would put me in jail right then and there. I finally accepted, but again, lo and behold, there was Charlie Smith, like a bad penny to yell at me and keep me quiet. I asked the woman in court who suddenly appeared with the Private Defender Program green information slip of paper, how I could possibly be in the program, when it was not a criminal matter. She said, “I can’t answer legal questions and have to leave; I’m late.” That made about as much sense as asking the Cheshire Cat for directions...



At one point, outside the courtroom Charlie Smith asked me, “Why won’t you ever believe that Dr. Lukaszewicz is doing anything bad to you?” I said, “ because I care about him and because he is a victim too.”



I am sure there was a lot of pressure for Dr. Lukaszewicz to comply to a certain extent with the restraining order, but because his name was forged many times, he either was not included in some aspects, or as I have theorized, they want the forged signature to become recognized as Dr. Lukaszewicz’s only and genuine signature, for predatory purposes against him.



I think the reason Dr. Lukaszewicz initially reached out to me and asked me to email him about, “medical issues, or anything else” was to grow a friendship and my loyalty, so he would have someone to confide in and possibly help him. He was right. I would do whatever is needed to keep him safe. We were merely platonic friends, yet I believe others were intimidated by it and needed to remove me from the scene. That is why Marija Petrovic and Mr. Guasco manufactured this entire thing. I grew to care about Dr. Lukaszewicz very much for many reasons, but I feel terrible for him having to live under their collective thumbs and go through this devious plan. I have also suffered greatly and still suffer under their covert attacks against me, even now that I moved a considerable distance away. They want me destroyed. They seem vindictive, so it seems like they are doing all of this for a hidden client who is worried she will lose Dr. Lukaszewicz’s financial support, but more realistically, because she is a controlling narcissist and cannot stand the thought that someone else could possibly take away her “prize” object.



Normal people do not mentally abuse other people, but I have had the abuse from Guasco and Petrovic so strongly, I am surprised I am still alive. I am telling the truth when I say that both Marija Petrovic and Mr. Guasco openly seem to derive sick pleasure from what harm they do to others. Marija Petrovic would call me and say such cruel, hurtful things and when I would sob, she would hang up. She falsely added 5 mental illnesses into my chart. She laughed when I mentioned them to her. If she believed in her diagnoses, then when she called me and said cruel things to me, that meant that she did not care if they resulted in death by my own hand after she abruptly hung up. It was very much like she was trying to goad me into exactly that. I have proved her wrong about her about her invalid mental diagnoses, because I am still here. I am sure it is a disappointment to her. I call her a “spychiatrist” because she works in a very covert manner and does not heal; she destroys. She should never be around another patient, or anyone for that matter. She treated me in an abjectly cruel manner; very cold blooded.



Mr. Guasco and Marija Petrovic robbed me of over 3 years of my life and made up contempt charges that got me put into jail. Mr. Guasco “gave” (forced) an attorney to me and had him claim that attorney (Charlie Smith) was from the Private Defender Program (of the San Mateo County Bar Association) but he was not in it and I was not in it. I did not even qualify, because my case was a civil matter and they only provide attorneys for criminal cases. Charlie Smith (San Mateo) merely kept me quiet in court and yelled in my face to “SHUT UP, SHUT UP!” He made no attempt to help me, but clearly assisted in getting me jailed on false contempt charges.



Charlie Smith did not even tell me when there was going to be a hearing; no preparation, no file. I was completely blindsided He had 2 yellow legal pads and pencils. He objected one time, but repeated the same question over and over. When I took the stand, Judge Novak interrupted me each time I opened my mouth and had nearly everything I said struck from the record. I spoke up and told Dr. Lukaszewicz that I was worried about him and that I supported him and cared about his welfare. I was on the witness stand for a very short time, maybe 5 minutes and Mr. Smith barely said anything to me. He just said, “tell them why you think this is a false restraining order.” There was no structure, so I just started from the beginning, After I said only a very small amount he had me sit back down. When Mr. Guasco’s attorney asked me the question, “were you in contempt?” I wasn’t certain what she was talking about, because there were many accusations of contempt, but one that could have been construed as contempt, I had already told Judge Livermore that the reason I brought some gifts to Kaiser for Dr. Lukaszewicz’s birthday was because I knew he was a sensitive person and I was worried that during an emotional time such as birthdays, he could feel depressed and I wanted him to know that there was someone out there who cared about him and supported him. That was when Judge Livermore said, “this is very likely an invalid restraining order, I invite you to contest it.” The attorney I had hired, Mr. Donald Bloom (San Francisco) ended up not working for me, but was obviously working for Mr. Guasco instead, because he also did nothing for me. (He had called me asking me if I needed an attorney, because he had seen I was searching for one online. I should have been suspicious, but no one else would allow me to hire them, so I said yes.) He yelled at me for speaking up in court, and ultimately said he would not contest the restraining order, because it would cost me too much ($1,800) and I most likely would not win. I got the money from my mother, and I said if the judge already thinks it is an invalid restraining order, why would it be hard to win? He still said he would not contest it and dropped me as a client. He said that if I ever contacted him again, he would give me a restraining order. He actually seemed frightened when I last saw him in court. He also looked ill and I was told he had a heart attack not long after. He lived.

One other thing he had said to me in a final email was, “Dr. Lukaszewicz is Oz and you are the Tin Man. “Dr. Lukaszewicz could not give you something you already have.”



Early into the TRO, when I was first looking for an attorney, I went to attorney Moira Hogan’s office in the Willow Glen area of San Jose. She got up from the interview and was gone quite awhile. When she came back she suddenly told me that Mr. Guasco and his firm were, “Very, Very BAD people, stay aways from them.” Then she rushed me out the door. I had paid $250 for the consultation that went nowhere and treated me like a bad smell. It was very disconcerting.



I spoke to an attorney in Orange County, CA. (John W. Busman) and he told me that Mr. Guasco files frivolous TROs. (He has a blog claiming Kaiser, through Mr. Guasco, files many frivolous lawsuits) Mr. Busman told me about a quadriplegic man to whom Mr. Guasco gave a TRO claiming he spat at a nurse. (Mr. Guasco incorporates hospital staff to file the (False) TROs against people.) Mr. Guasco (as I have observed) uses very dirty tactics; lies, forgeries, intimidation to get his way, not through good use of law. He uses “smoke and mirrors” not law. TROs and ROs are his weapons of choice. He perverts their intended use, to protect those in danger from real harm. What danger was Dr. Lukaszewicz in from me?



From what I have noticed, Mr. Guasco seems to focus many of his efforts on the most vulnerable of Kaiser’s patients. He seems to attack those with little financial means and those who are weak from health conditions.



Mr. Guasco lied about a man who he was trying to railroad into jail and said that man, Mr. Jeff Lusk, a retired Coast Guard officer had a gun and was threatening Kaiser employees with it. The man, Jeff Lusk, has a son with a traumatic brain injury and does not own a gun. Mr. Lusk has been trying to find out who stole a large amount of money from his son’s fund. He is the sole caregiver of his son and did nothing but seek answers as to who took the money. Mr. Guasco hit Mr. Lusk with an R.O. merely for trying to get answers and was threatening to put Mr. Lusk into jail.

Many of the elements in Mr. Lusk’s case mirror my own with lies, and forgeries, etc. Mr. Guasco, I believe, has had Marija Petrovic, a psychiatrist from Serbia, doing the forgeries of Dr. Lukaszewicz’s signature. An expert told me that Marija Petrovic was likely the one doing it, but needed a larger sample of her handwriting to be certain. Three times I have had handwriting experts validate my opinion that Dr. Lukaszewicz’s signature had been forged, but after I filed the opinions with the court, each expert later wrote emails to me with a very cruel vibe (about me.) It is too much to think of them as ALL coincidences. I have no doubt in my mind that they were contacted by Mr. Guasco, but too bad for him that they had already given me their opinion that Dr. Lukaszewicz’s signature was forged. The signatures were compared with a known signature of his on a real estate document filed with the Recorder’s office.



At present, I have been harassed by my HOA from the very beginning. The elements of the harassment, making me feel hated, are so similar to what I have experienced with Mr. Guasco and Marija Petrovic, I tend to believe they have been in contact with the HOA and have smeared my name, because they have treated me like a pariah and attack me about imaginary wrong doings. I also believe that one, or both of them have been in my home before I actually moved in. The man removing the old carpet left my key on the porch, so anyone could have gone in. When I did first come in, I saw sitting on the piano, a wicker box that had an antique tea set from Japan in it given to me by a famous family friend. I picked it up and it just sounded like marbles rolling around in it. I had given Dr. Lukaszewicz a tea cup and saucer from the set. I heard outside the exam room door an assistant of Dr. Lukaszewicz’s sounding very angry at him for accepting the gift. A few minutes later, I asked him if he were going to leave them in his office, he said that they were too nice to leave there.



Dr. Lukaszewicz’s assistant, Starr, who had been cross with him for accepting my gift, treated me with disdain. She sneered about my 20 lb weight loss and said, “THAT’S GOOD?” after Dr. Lukaszewicz high fived each other. I was told by Dr. Lukaszewicz to wait in the exam room while he printed up the office visit report. But before he could return, Starr asked me to come with her to the waiting room. I asked he why we were there and she said, “because you’re leaving!” I was puzzled about her treatment of me and thought of how wrong it was and that I never got my report, so I went back. It was nearly 5 pm and I was barely eating anything and nearly fainted. Dr. Lukaszewicz came out to the waiting room and asked if I were not feeling well. When I told him that I hadn’t eaten yet that day, he found 2 granola bars and a box of apple juice. He looked at me so sadly during the initial part of our visit and I wondered why. Later, I understood that he knew of the Hell I was going to face in the near future.



Kaiser allows patients who they think are a “problem” to be harassed, intimidated and humiliated. Marija Petrovic is obviously their “go to” person who sets them up and mentally and physically intimidates them. She creates nightmares for the target and pushes it to the extreme. I have been abused by Kaiser doctors who refused to treat me and would yell at me and ask me if I were just looking for drugs when I went to the ER for legitimate physical complaints. Nurses would treat me roughly and say odd things to me. One told the man who gave me a ride to the ER that he should marry me. I had a doctor tell me to go find my own friends and told me I should go to the senior center to find them. There were whisper campaigns that were to obviously make me feel uncomfortable. I heard some of the behind the desk staff talk about my clothes and saying how could I afford them when I was on Kaiser assistance? They didn’t know I bought used clothing on Ebay for less money than I would pay for cheap stuff at a box store. It was weird, but I managed to brush it off.



Mr. Guasco worked with a team. One was (as I mentioned) a psychiatrist from Serbia (Marija Petrovic), and a couple of security guards from Kaiser (Edward Souza and Emanuel de Guzman). The security guards fulfilled several functions and the psychiatrist performed psychiatric mental abuse against me and the alleged plaintiff (Dr. Lukaszewicz) in the false restraining order case against me. I witnessed Dr. Lukaszewicz acting like he was hypnotized or drugged; he was nothing like himself. His usual warm and friendly demeanor changed to snooty and dismissive.



The last time I saw Dr. Lukaszewicz (October 9, 2015) he told me thank you for the autographed book I gave him and said, “it is one of my favorites, thank you.” That was later after he had treated me in that dismissive way. He said, “you look disappointed, did you think we would become friends?” I said, “I thought it would be nice.” He said in a very snooty way, “I’m not friends with my patients.” I said, “fine.” He said, “I will have my assistant make an appointment for you to return in 3 months.” I said, “If I return at all.” He said, “your decision!” and left the room. I was stunned. It was so very much unlike him. I reached the elevator and felt dizzy and nauseated. I sat in his waiting room. An assistant of his saw me and brought me back to the office area. It turned out that Dr. Lukaszewicz was still there. He had the nurse take my blood pressure and very kindly said, “use the manual cuff, because the electronic one hurts her arms.” He was back to his normal self. He had me put in a darkened room to lie down and rest. He came by the door of the room and said, “thank you for the book; it’s one of my favorites.” I said, “I know, I remember you telling me that.” What I had gotten him was a leather bound collector’s version of John Irving’s “A Prayer for Owen Meany” and signed by the author. He told me to have a good weekend and left. It was the last time I saw him in person. Afterward, I got a letter from Mr. de Guzman, the security guard, saying I should stop my inappropriate behavior, in regard to Dr. Lukaszewicz. It frightened me. I thought I was going to be framed for crossing a sexual boundary line. I was terrified. I think that is a fictitious premise that they have based this entire false restraining order case upon.



It has all been a very creative proceeding of entrapment from the minds of Marija Petrovic and Mike Guasco. I believe that this entire, “Off Broadway Show” has been a means to break me down and feel worthless. I have no doubt that Judge Novak’s hecking of me from the bench, saying “STALKER” to me as I left the witness stand and saying, “no wonder the doctor is afraid of you” was all a part of the play. I really want to know why judges went along with it all. Being thrown into jail was really a disgusting part of this farce. I was so sick from MS symptoms, yet I was given no wheelchair and they chained my cuffed wrists to my waist. It was so nightmarish. The deputy was walking so fast I was afraid I was going to fall. He yelled at me to hurry up and get into the van to go to jail. It was high up and there was no place to pull myself up except a small metal ring on the back of the front seat. I managed to get my small finger in the ring and used it to help me pull up. I have short, misshapen legs due to lymphedema that happened after I had a year of experimental chemo for a rare and virulent cancer. My husband has just drowned when I got the diagnoses and had no real time to actually grieve. I fought infections and high fevers and was almost always in the hospital.



I was strip searched at the jail and I was given ill fitting clothes. The solitary jail cell was dirty and there was a large dried blood stain on the floor. I refused food. I had absolutely nothing to do, until two female deputies brought me a couple of books. They were more welcomed to me than any food.



I was hit with a TRO saying I gave Dr. Lukaszewicz unwanted gifts and said, or did something involving saying, or doing something personal to him. We were never inappropriate. Mr. Guasco keeps telling me that Dr. Lukaszewicz dislikes me, but if that were the case, why why the forgeries of his signature? Why not show up for the extension hearing? Why come to my surgery, at my request when we were not supposed to see each other? Why do I have at least one email thanking me for a gift? Why did I get a phone call from him thanking me and saying he was going to keep the gifts? This entire matter was made up as according to a plan devised by Mr. Guasco and his sidekick, Marija Petrovic and lies and intimidation by both and including the two security guards, Mr. Edward Souza and Emanuel de Guzman.



Mr. Guaso needed to stop Judge Livermore’s sincere feeling that I was involved in an invalid restraining order so Mr. Guasco quickly made up false Points and Authorities that featured Mr. Souza’s several incredible whopping lies (They really did not make sense) along with Mr. Guasco’s usual M.O. of his including a huge stack of paperwork maneuver, to give a judge the first impression that the defendant must have gone on a mad spree of contempts to accumulate such a pile over 300 pages long. But, they are always a lot of irrelevant papers that mean nothing for the situation at hand, but it would make a judge visually astonished and would either read it all, or not have enough time to have read it all and rule “by the seat of his pants.” as was the case with the R.O. extension; the judge himself said, did not read everything. He did not even get a copy of the supposed evidence that Mr. Guasco said he had, but had not filed it with the court, nor given me a copy. I knew there was no reason to extend the restraining order, but Mr. Guasco said to me outside the courtroom that he could keep me restrained as long as I seemed to want to have a relationship with Dr. Lukaszewicz, and could use the same “evidence” over and over to do so. Right in front of my son, Mr. Guasco yelled in my face, “HE DOESN’T WANT A RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU! Twice. He wrote an email to me saying to stop trying to force Dr. Lukaszewicz into having a relationship with you! I said, “how is that possible when I have not seen him since court, (over a year) nor spoken to him since 2015? Mr. Guasco seems desperate and rather unhinged.That man most certainly has an agenda where Dr. Lukaszewicz is concerned and I do not think it is anything good for Dr. Lukaszewicz.



I do not trust Mr. Guasco for many, many reasons, not the least of which are his abuse of court, by using forgeries and lies in his court documents, and because he leaves Dr. Lukaszewicz out of the process, forges his name, lies and says he was at hearing, when he was not, but the predatory way Mr. Guasco acts like he is in charge of Dr. Lukaszewicz’s life. He basically speaks his own desires, not the desires of his “client.” It is, I feel, because Dr. Lukaszewicz has no say so in the matter. He is forced to participate by Kaiser. The one time he was on the witness stand he was acting very oddly. He seemed drugged. He spoke a mile a minute and even the judge had to ask him to slow down 3 times. He could have been nervous, but he is a Harvard graduated doctor/surgeon. I am sure he has nerves of steel. Also, he said my name (or rather my nom de plume, Haviva von Martinitz) so sweetly and gently, it made me blush. He also said that my gifts to him were, “nice and they were expensive.” That did NOT sound like a man who was upset about unwanted gifts at all, which was supposedly a big reason I got a restraining order.Also, it flew in the face of security guard Edward Souza who called my gifts, “creepy and disgusting.”



Getting 30 months for giving my doctor gifts and even with the false accusation that I said something romantic, or suggestive is very Draconian! (and who gets a restraining order for giving a doctor thank you gifts anyway? And why such a long restraining order? Chris Brown was given 18 months of a R.O. and he severely beat up his girlfriend Rihanna. It makes no sense! Then, Mr. Guasco lied and forged and cheated his way into a 2 year extension! I also want to know why Judge Danny Chou (San Mateo Sup. Court) let it happen, even though the “evidence” Mr. Guasco had was not shared with me, nor filed with the court, nor given to the judge. Mr. Guasco said I had written 163 emails to Dr. Lukaszewicz in 2017, just before I went to jail in June 2017. I know the reason Mr. Guasco did not share the “evidence” was because there was no valid evidence of his description. He didn’t want anyone to see it, because even if he had the dates changed on the emails, the content would not make sense for this situation. The amount was exactly the amount Mr. Guasco’s partner in my railroading, Marija Petrovic mentioned as having been the amount I wrote trying to find out why I had been accused of doing something “inappropriate” to Dr. Lukaszewicz and no one in any position of authority would help me. I found an email address and phone number on my online chart that said it belonged to Dr. Lukaszewicz. When no one else would help me at Kaiser, I wrote him emails and called and left voicemails asking why I was being accused of such a heinous sounding crime. Also, why weren’t the police involved if they thought I had done a serious criminal activity? Mr. Souza didn’t mind calling a Sheriff to come out when I went to Kaiser to picket for my civil rights.



Both Mr. Souza and Marija Petrovic seem to have an interest in Dr. Lukaszewicz. Mr. Souza said to me it was unfair that Dr. Lukaszewicz liked me, when he had known him longer. Then he basically told me to “back off.” Marija Petrovic wrote to me that I needed to leave she and Dr. Lukaszewicz alone!” Now, Mr. Guasco seems to be on the prowl too with his desperate false accusations against me and his predatory manner acting like he is personally involved and doing the RO for his own benefit, not his “client’s”. I think each of those people feel they can manipulate a wealthy doctor into their predatory web.



Mr. Guasco has been arrested twice. For what, I do not know, but his wife, I noticed had been arrested so many times for possession of controlled substances, my hand got tired of scrolling. It could have easily been 100 times. She also was arrested for forging a doctor’s signature on a prescription. I just think it is odd that she was married to an attorney who works for hospitals that have pharmacies and he incorporates security guards in his plans. Mr. Guasco was, I believe still married to his wife, Jennifer, when all of her arrests were going on. It seems strange.



Mr. Guasco seems to have little regard for rules, or the law when it comes to his own behavior. His forgeries and lies in court documents proves that statement. It is abuse of court as well.



Mr. Guasco did send me, by process server a huge pile of 300 pages written to Judge Livermore (falsely stating that I had said defiant things and did terrible contempts) late on a Thursday afternoon to my home in Mendocino County for a Monday morning hearing. There was no way I could write an answer and get it delivered to the court by Monday morning. (Mr. Guasco walks a thin ethical line, but mostly, he steps way over it.) Judge Livermore (ret.) erroneously declared that Mr. Guasco’s (false) “Points and Authorities” , now made my case, “ a criminal matter!” I called the DA’s office and I was told that only the DA can make the determination if a case is criminal and said that mine was not. I believe it was all an attempt to fulfill the criminal element of a case necessary to be given an attorney from the Pvt. Defender Program. (Charlie Smith).



Mr. Souza, a security guard at Kaiser South San Francisco at the time (but now in Janitorial SSF) confessed to me that the psychiatrist, Marija Petrovic, had been hired (back) to Kaiser SSF for the express purpose of getting rid of me as my doctor’s patient. My phone was on speaker at the time and my friend wrote a statement saying he heard Mr. Souza tell me that information. (It essentially meant that it was all purposely rigged against me) and should have made the restraining order invalid, but even when I filed my friend’s statement with the court; it was ignored.



So, Marija Petrovic along with Mr. Guasco tailor made a plan to get me a restraining order. They accomplished it. The restraining order was invalid, which meant that everything that followed (done to me) was criminal behavior. Having me jailed under false contempt charges meant it was false imprisonment! I suffered untold horrors. I am also a 64 year old woman with MS, so elder abuse and abuse of a handicapped person can be included.



Marija Petrovic, according to a handwriting expert, was the alleged forger and worked on plans to help restrain me. (I have used professional handwriting experts to discover the forgeries) Mr. Guasco obviously contacted two of my experts, because their attitudes toward me changed dramatically after I got their reports and filed them with the court. Mr. Guasco undoubtedly smears my name to people, even my experts and I strongly believe with my HOA, who treated my like a pariah the first day I met them at a “welcome” party, that my renter said seemed more like an interrogation party. No one was friendly at all. They have harassed me basically incessantly. I am demanding of them to tell me why they have been doing it to me, and who told them to do it. Marija Petrovic’s method is to make a person feel belittled and worthless; that is what is being done here by my HOA. I will find out for certain, but it has both their “prints” all over it. They seem to be trying to crush me. Mr. Guasco has made that perfectly clear with what he has done to me and seeing the same pattern in what has been going on to me. They berate me about my mental health, and Judge Novak also alluded to it in her mocking of me when I was on the witness stand. It was obvious that she was told how to treat me. I have been blown away at the lack of judicial decorum that I have encountered. I have heard of trails where an accused known murderer was treated with more respect than I received!



Mr. Guasco seems highly motivated to keep me away from Dr. Lukaszewicz, but I did not get that feeling from Dr. Lukaszewicz at all when he was on the stand and spoke so sweetly to me and said my name so tenderly it made me blush.



I noticed that at least once that damning evidence I filed with the court never seemed to make it to the judge. On one occasion I handed my evidence to someone in the clerk’s office and he said he would take it right up to Judge Livermore, but afterward, nothing about it was ever mentioned and everything went along without it being included. It SHOULD have exonerated me! Naturally, I was more often than not, silenced in court and not allowed to speak up. When an attorney was forced upon me it was especially true.





I believe Mr. Guasco was instrumental in keeping me from getting an attorney at the most critical juncture of the RO hearing, by blacklisting me (but then forcing an attorney on me to make it appear I sometimes did have representation.) Even now, I cannot find an attorney for ANY matter at all, even my HOA harassment issues! I am confident in saying he blacklisted me and smears my name. When I asked Mr. Guasco if he had kept me from getting an attorney. He just smiled. I was not able to get an attorney for the first critical court date to determine my fate for the false TRO/RO. I was extremely nervous and ill from MS symptoms and was barely able to speak. I was given 30 months for having given my doctor a few gifts of thanks for going above and beyond with his extraordinary care of me with my complicated health matters! It was said that I said unwanted romantic things to my doctor which was absolutely untrue. I also believe there could be a seriously false statement that was hidden from my view saying something salacious, otherwise it seems rather intense to get a 30 month restraining order for gifts that were accepted and for which I was thanked by email and phone and in person. Mr. Guasco must have added in something about my making romantic overtures, which I did not.



There were forgeries of Dr. Lukaszewicz’s signature in several of the court documents. (Verified.)



In the beginning, Mr Guasco also “somehow” got my court file from an attorney (Mordachi Pelta, who had prior been reprimanded by the Bar Association) I had been interviewing. That attorney claimed he had accidentally shredded it, but another time said he shredded it to keep it safe. I was suspicious and asked Mr. Guasco if he had it. He said yes and said ‘someone” delivered it to his office; he said he didn’t know who sent it. Mr. Guasco never returned it to me. I think that when attorney Pelta realized that I had been blacklisted, he felt he should make at least a little something off me and offered my file to Mr. Guasco for a price. Then he told me he had shredded it accidently and another time said it was sitting around so long that he shredded it to keep it safe. (absurd)



I believe that Mr. Guasco’s actual client is Dr. Lukaszewicz’s domestic partner, Dr. Moayeri. I believe she asked Mr. Guasco to force the situation on Dr. Lukaszewicz to punish him and myself for being friendly. I believe she is a friend of Mr. Guasco’s accomplice, Maria Petrovic. I think Dr. Moayeri wanted me to hate Dr. Lukaszeiwcz for giving me a restraining order, and he me for messing up his life, by giving him some thank you gifts. Marija Petrovic had the security guard Emanuel de Guzman tell me I could not see Dr. Lukaszewicz any longer, because he said that I had done something “inappropriate to Dr. Lukaszewicz”, but would not say what the “inappropriate” thing was that I had supposed done. I said that I had the right to face my accuser. Mr. de Guzman said that Kaiser was a corporation and corporations do not have to give you your civil rights, so neither Dr. Lukaszewicz, nor he needed to tell me what I had done. Judge Novak once mocked me by saying sarcastically, “We wouldn’t want to deprive you of your civil rights” Strange, because my civil rights were deprived during this entire event.



I was not supposed to see, or communicate with Dr. Lukaszewicz, but when I came to the ER with pain and it was determined that my gallbladder needed removal. I asked if Dr. Lukaszewicz could observe the operation. I waited from Tuesday evening to Friday afternoon when Dr. Lukaszewicz had half days at Kaiser. My surgeon (Dr. David Le) told me that Dr. Lukaszewicz had been there and saw the surgery. If Dr. Lukaszewicz disliked me, why come to my surgery? Risk reprimand by Kaiser?

One week later, I was served with a TRO.



I believe Dr. Lukaszewicz was told his job could be in jeopardy or some other serious reason why I got the TRO. Dr. Lukaszewicz and I had spoken about going through a waiting period to become friends. I believe Mr. Guasco tells some people that I am on the path to becoming friends with Dr. Lukaszewicz, but from the vicious manner I have been attacked, and put in jail, I know it is not the case. I sincerely believe Mr. Guasco smears my name saying I did something salacious and I am certain I am blacklisted, so I cannot get an attorney. I was sent an anonymous email from a NOLO supported attorney who told me that I would never be able to hire an attorney and that I should leave “the kind doctor alone.” No one other than Mr. Guasco would have a reason to keep me from getting an attorney, so he could be certain to “level the playing field” and be certain I always lost. It has been so very emotionally painful; I cannot even begin to express its intensity.

I would like my name restored and removed from whatever blacklist there might exist.



This has been a nightmare. I have never had a problem like this before. My doctor, Dr. Lukaszewicz, did so much extra work for me because of my complicated medical issues, that I wanted to thank him with a few gifts. I began getting harassed by the psychiatrist and I believe she monitored my appointments with Dr. Lukaszewicz. She made random cruel calls to me. She loaded up my chart with 5 serious sounding mental illnesses. I had been basically railroaded into seeing her. I was having no psychological problems, but my doctor and I discussed that my MS could be a source of depression and I agreed to try and find out. Yes, I believe Dr. Lukaszewicz was forced to help their plan to some degree, but I believe he has refused, since his signature was forged even in July 2018, when Mr. Guasco wanted my restraining order extended. Why? Four and a half years of an (admittedly) false restraining order for giving my doctor gifts for which he thanked me? That IN COURT he said were very nice and expensive? No mention was EVER made in court about my doing anything salacious to Dr. Lukaszewicz, not once. That should have been an important part, but I am sure they knew it was too absurd to bring up, besides perhaps Dr. Lukaszewicz did not know it had been inserted into the statement. Neither one of us EVER acted improperly!



In the beginning of this absurd plan of attack against me I went to a social worker to help with finding out why I was having slight feelings of anxiety and some depression and wondered if the MS might have something to do with it, but it was a disaster because I was told he put his notes in my regular chart so everyone could see them. I dropped him. I was at Dr. Lukaszewicz’s office and I ended up getting sick, so he sent me to the ER. A woman came up to me and offered me a psychiatrist with a name that sounded exactly like my married name only it was spelled with one letter different. It was planned for me to pick her, but they took a circuitous route to get there to make it look less obvious. Nothing bad that happened to me at Kaiser SSF was an accident, it was all part of the plan against me to get me to a TRO.

Marija Petrovic did nothing but ask me about Dr. Lukaszewicz and was very strange acting. She made me feel uncomfortable, so I stopped going to see her. That made her angry. Then, she began calling me and saying cruel things and when I would cry, she would hang up. I truly felt she wanted me to kill myself. I believe it was all a part of her plan against me along with Mr. Guasco. Her forgery of Dr. Lukaszewicz’s signature was on a court document right next to Mr. Guasco’s signature. They faxed it on a day Dr. Lukaszewicz was not at that particular office. It shows that they were colluding in the illegal legal matter against me.



I found out that it was very likely that Marija Petrovic knew Dr. Lukaszewicz prior to my getting the TRO, but both denied it. Marija Petrovic goes to and from from Kaiser like a revolving door. From what Mr. Souza admitted about her coming back to Kaiser to get rid of me as Dr. Lukaszewicz’s patient I knew she was something like a “hit man” used by Kaiser and their law firm to deal with “problem” patients. Her picture on the Kaiser website was at least 15 years old, and said that she had an office on the 3rd floor of the Kaiser SSF building, where Dr. Lukaszewicz had his office. It would have been difficult not to have met her, or seen her. Marija Petrovic acted like she knew all about him. During one of my 4 office visits she basically said that Dr. Lukaszewicz had a mental illness. I didn’t think that was an ethical thing to say, plus I thought she was trying to make me scared off of liking him.



Marija Petrovic as I said is from Serbia where it was war torn and rough. I saw online that said she used the power of “OM” to get money, sex; whatever she wanted. In my opinion she is very odd acting. When she was walking down the hallway with her she said she wanted me to call her when I was going to go to Czechoslovakia to the land of my noble ancestors (Czech Republic) because she wanted to come with me. That really put me off, not because I am homophobic, because I am not. I had told her when she asked if I had a gender preference and I said no; that I cared about a person’s heart and personality, not what is in their pants.



Marija Petrovic has a brother named Marko, who works at a Kaiser in Southern CA in neurology and also in San Francisco Kaiser. Dr. Lukaszewicz’s domestic partner, doctor Moayeri is also in the field of neurology at Kaiser in Redwood City and has also worked at Kaisers in Southern CA and San Francisco. Marija Petrovic supposedly a psychiatrist (does not act like one) which is also neurology. I believe Dr. Lukaszewicz’s domestic partner had her friend, Marija Petrovic come to Kaiser to get rid of me, then along with Mr. Guasco with the Kaiser law firm to provide the legal muscle in the plan against me. The law firm of Buty & Curliano, are the firm that gives Kaiser doctors free legal services, so they most likely provide any legal wish they have. It seems that Dr. Moayeri became aware that Dr. Lukaszewicz was spending a lot of time helping with my difficult health issues and also heard I gave him some gifts that he liked, so she got everyone involved to get rid of me. Kaiser wants to please her, so they do nothing to stop her plans against me, no matter how much I complain or am hurt by them.



It is my contention that they were worried that Dr. Lukaszewicz would confide in me and become a friend. I believe they may now have Dr. Lukaszewicz as their real target I do not know all the details, but I do not think Dr. Lukaszewicz has much freedom in his life and it is worrying. Once, just before all the restraining order business happened, Dr. Lukaszewicz called me from home. He sounded terrified. He had to hang up before he said much. Prior to that he called me and sounded sad. He said he thought I could use a call. I said I missed his voice. He said he missed mine too. One time, he called me from San Francisco and said he had spent all day in surgery and wanted to call me right after he got out. That touched me deeply. He left me a message on my phone asking me to call him the next day, which I found out later would have been his birthday. I didn’t hear the message in time to call, but soon after, he said a family member died. He did not say who it was, but I sent him emails of condolence that he said he really appreciated. Later on I discovered it was his mother who had died. I had written that it was weird that Marija Petrovic arrived to Kaiser just before his mother died in June of 2015. I noticed later that Marija Petrovic changed her arrival date at Kaiser to August of 2015….but she forgot that I had been to see her on the 19th of June. Now, my online Kaiser account has been blocked from my use as well as my FB page, where she would hack my friend’s FB accounts and write cruel things to me about how Dr. Lukaszewicz hated me.



Marija Petrovic has all the skills of a spy. Her forgery ability certainly comes in handy for the court documents for Mr. Guasco and for forging one of Buty & Curliano’s attorney’s signature on a letter that was sent to me from that law office. I noticed that his signature and hers were strikingly similar and an expert verified that she was most likely the one who had signed the letter, but wanted a larger sample of her hand writing to be 100% certain.I had none.



Mr Guasco and his crew have been so cold blooded about the way have attacked me so viciously, that it makes me worry about Dr. Lukaszewicz. They act too desperate and predatory. I think they want me kept away from him so they can attack him with abandon (unrestricted). They made up things about me to make me seem predatory and salacious, the way THEY really are themselves. I am afraid for his life. People who make traps for innocent people to fall into do not strike me as nice. It is entrapment. Since they all know each other and are friends and Dr. Lukaszewicz is the problem and may stray, they just might make HIM “go away” instead and his money would all be up for grabs, but hopefully it is in an irrevocable trust as I have written about as being a good deterrent from predators. People with money are not safe. I found that out myself. People come out of the woodwork to grab it from you. (It is conjecture based on their behavior I have witnessed, but I do not want to wait for Dr. Lukaszewicz’s demise to prove I am correct. I believe we were given the ability to reason things out for an important purpose.)



My worry for Dr. Lukaszewicz’s safety, because of the terrified call from Dr. Lukaszewicz to me, it ate away at me, so I asked his local police department to check on him. It was an honest attempt to be certain he wasn’t somehow abused at home. Mr. Guasco twisted my concern and said it was a form of stalking Dr. Lukaszewicz. That was a jaw dropper. It is only a twisted mind who could turn a kindness into a crime. He has a real talent for it. I have watched the lies flow off of his tongue as effortlessly as running water pouring over the side of a cliff.



Mr. Guasco’s latest venture into falsifying court documents was July 12, 2018 when he asked my (false) restraining order be extended. He did not have the “plaintiff” Dr. Lukaszewicz with him in the court, yet he noted on the court paperwork that his client had indeed been in court (my son made a statement denying there were a plaintiff in court). Mr. Guasco’s extension notice of extension had a forgery of the plaintiff, no supporting statement.The alleged plaintiff, Dr. Lukaszewicz basically had no role in extending the R.O.,it was all Michael Guasco. Everything in the restraining order had been manufactured against me, to keep me from being my doctor’s patient, because someone was worried that he would leave his home life. Mr. Guasco was brought in by Kaiser to make certain their doctor, Dr. Lukaszewicz would not stray from home with his domestic partner, who is also a Kaiser doctor/surgeon, Dr. Moayeri. Otherwise, why would a patient get a 30 month restraining order, and then add on 2 more years restraining order for doing nothing at all? Mr. Guasco said he had evidence, but he never showed it to me, nor filed it with the court. He said I wrote 163 emails in mid 2017, just before I was falsely imprisoned. He lied. Outside the courtroom he told me that he could keep me restrained as long as he wanted. This is vindictive, not law.



I have been abused for over three years, please help me to have it stopped. I have been hurting for so long and I can barely take it any longer.

I have handwriting expert reports, witness statements and other recollections of mine that I can add. Also, Dr. Lukaszewicz needs to feel he can speak freely and give his side of things. I am a cancer surviving widow with MS, no one at all took into consideration of my health issues in this. I suffered greatly. I was kept from my civil rights. It is a very convoluted, difficult case, but it all fits together to show conspiracy and corruption and disdain for the law, attorney ethics and the court.



Mr. Guasco does not appear to believe that any rules apply to him.

I will be happy to supply more evidence, subject to lie detection, or whatever necessary. Mr. Guasco is a special kind of cruel and does not belong dealing with the public. After what he did to me alone makes me say with absolutely no hesitation that he belongs in jail. The emotional damage I have endured from him was criminal. I would like to know how he got the judges, etc to become involved. They need to be investigated too. I was kept in the dark about everything and it has been horrible torment for me.
