Chapter 6: Money
“MONEY FOR NOTHING”
On paper, the Defendant’s, Donald Broder and Craig Broder had already won.
Procedurally, the plaintiffs had barred themselves from the courthouse door by failing to secure probate before filing suit. The limitation period had passed. The pleadings had closed. The law was on the defendants’ side in every measurable way.
Yet the fight did not end.
The case lumbered on, absorbing years of time and tens of thousands in legal costs. Motions, applications, and procedural twists piled up, but none of it changed the fundamental truth: the plaintiffs had no standing from the outset.
This persistence raised darker questions, ones that went beyond the fate of the Broder Buck.
Why was the court allowing a claim that should never have made it past the filing counter?
Why were obvious conflicts of interest ignored?
Why did procedural rules that bind ordinary litigants seem to bend when certain lawyers and judges were involved?
To Donald and Craig, it began to look like the fight was no longer about a set of antlers at all. The Broder Buck had become a pretext, a vehicle for something else. An arena where influence, reputation, and power inside Alberta’s justice system could be tested.
It was, in their view, a world of white collar criminals in robes and suits, where professional courtesy masked misconduct and accountability was a mirage. The further they dug, the more the courtroom resembled a hunting ground of its own, except here the quarry was not a record-breaking deer, but the truth about how the system worked and who it really served.
Then Craig Broder made an application for the lawsuit to be dismissed against him, after all he was only 10 years old when his Grandfather passed away, it was granted and what Elizabeth MacInnis was led to believe was he was running for the hills, hiding out giving them all the impression he was going away.
But little did she know it was the opposite and now he was watching how things would unfold. And it did Elizabeth MacInnis went for the kill of the only one left on the claim Donald Broder, but to her surprise what she didn’t realize was the younger Broder had now become the predator and was tracking her every move, following the scent of corruption as she was chasing down the older prey, she then realized there was a predator stalking her every move and preparing for the perfect time to attack.
The fake trial was scheduled from January 19 – 23, 2004. After the trial ended Justice Myra Bielby Ordered that Donald Broder was to turn over the Broder Buck to Elizabeth MacInnis. Of course that was not going to happen. Elizabeth MacInnis then was granted a Court Order for a search and seize warrant and as written in the Sworn Affidavit of the Process server George Butler who attended the residence of Donald Broder with a search and seize warrant in hand, brought the RCMP, Constable Diebel and locksmith Clayton Jackson to force entry if needed. Alberta Justice Department in collusion with Elizabeth MacInnis, were using the RCMP to assist in enforcing a crime they were all committing against an innocent elderly senior and his 75 year-old wife.
The antler taken from Donald Broder’s residence were replica’s as determined by a taxidermist Elizabeth MacInnis had examine them.
Elizabeth MacInnis of Weir Bowen was so mad she then served Donald Broder with a Court Order to show up at Edmonton Law Courts on April 23, 2004 to be cited in contempt of Court for not following the Justice Bielby Court Order he was to turn over The Broder Buck to her.
Elizabeth MacInnis’s told Justice Bielby that Donald Broder needed to be taught a lesson that when a Court Order is given he ought to obey. Justice Bielby’s April 23, 2004 Court Ordered Donald Broder to be incarcerated at Edmonton Remand Center until he obey and turned over the Broder Buck to Elizabeth MacInnis. “Below” Edmonton Journal May 5, 2004 covering the release of Donald Broder from Edmonton Remand Center.
Below, Guy Lacourciere obtained $235,347.30 from Joyce Broder to secure the release of her husband Donald Broder from the Edmonton Remand Center and turn this money over to Elizabeth MacInnis of Weir Bowen on May 3, 2004. “LAC CER TR” stands for Lacourciere Cervini Transfer.
The Money Trail below, Lacourciere Cervini turned over $234,175.00 proceeds of the sale of the Broder Buck, Elizabeth MacInnis obtained an additional $69,768.68 and on Page 2 Weir Bowen legal fees she took was $141,761.26. Pretty good payday for the lawyer that obtained a Court Order to force the pleadings closed on herself March 15, 2001 before she applied for probate on May 24, 2001. Wow didn’t Elizabeth MacInnis have Donald Broder incarcerated in April 2004 for not following a court order? You mean to tell me it was MacInnis not following a February 13, 2001 Chief Justice A. H. Wachowich Court Order.
Donald Broder had never broke the law or had a criminal record, he worked for Public Works out of Calgary looking after Alberta Government project in Southern Alberta, Inspector Class 1 oversaw Alberta Law Court, Remand Center, Treasury Branches and liquor stores along with other government building renovations and construction of historical sites such a Head Smashed In Buffalo Jump, Cochrane Cowboy Museum and The Horse on the Hill.
Donald Broder had Guy Lacourciere file for an Appeal and the Appeal of Justice Bielby’s decision was in the works at Edmonton Law Courts and the decision of Justice Bielby was on hold until the Alberta Court of Appeal was scheduled and heard. So, how is it they enforced the Justice Bielby Court Order before the Appeal was heard?
Page 28, transcript from an examination on Guy Lacourcieres Affidavit where he confirms the Alberta Court of Appeal Justices Carol Conrad, Peter Costigan and Ronald Berger Line 12 – 24 below where he answers to questioning by Craig Broder.
Imagine that The Court of Appeal Justices, Carol Conrad, Peter Costigan and Ronald Berger new Elizabeth MacInnis had ambushed herself by forcing the pleadings closed within action 9703-12949 before she had Personal Representatives appointed and the request for a one month extension from the February 15, 2001 date of Justice J. L. Lewis Court Order that closed the pleadings was extended by Chief Justice A. H. Wachowich to March 15, 2001 allowing time for an outstanding 129 Application to strike the claim.
In the rule of law, when a Judgement is declared by the Court usually with a reason for decision explanation the losing party has 30 days to file for an Appeal, if this deadline is met and the Appeal filed with the Alberta Court of Appeal the Justice Judgement is on hold pending the outcome of the appeal.
