Jamie Harley (aka Jamie Harmon), a prosecutor turns criminal defense lawyer, was convicted yesterday of five counts of money laundering in in a San Jose Federal Court. Sentencing will take place in October

Harley was indicted five years ago for laundering $100,000 for a client. The client, Christian Pantages, pleaded guilty to charges stemming from his illicit business of selling stolen computer equipment.

Strangely, Harley is listed as ACTIVE with the State Bar of California.

In May of 2010, the State Bar Court Review Department complied with Jamie Harley's request that the recommended suspension be “substantially reduced” and issued an order suspending her for only 6 months. The Review Department panel, which consisted of Remke, Epstein and Purcell, reasoned that Harley misconduct was mainly the result of "mismanagement".

Previously, the hearing judge found Harley culpable of 12 counts in eight client matters, and recommended that she be actually suspended from the practice of law for one year.

Beginning in 2005, the State Bar Office of Chief Trial Counsel charged Harley with 20 counts of professional misconduct in 10 client matters occurring from 2002 to 2006. It sought disbarment, alleging that her misconduct involved disrespect and dishonesty to the court and inattention to clients, including mishandling of their funds and files.

That explains, because I and my new husband went to see her in August 2009 timeframe due to searching an Appellate attorney at that time. Ms. Harley stated that she would require an initial fee of $5,000 just to review a 4 volumes of Superior Court Custody case documents for filing an Appellate Brief and at the end of her review SHE would make a decision whether or not to take my case, if she would not take the case she would keep the $5,000 initial fee. I went home and think about it, called her in next two days, told her I could not gamble $5,000 JUST to REVIEW my documents.
I AS PRO PER FILED THEN MY APPELLATE BRIEF TO THE CT OF APPEALS, SJ.

I hope she goes to jail. She agreed to represent my fiancé in a misdemeanor matter, telling him/us she could have his case ex-sponged (case is still pending 2 years later) after we pay her a $5000 retainer fee. My ex-husband got word and filed for full custody and when I explained the matter to Jamie Harley AKA Harmon, she said she could take on my case for an additional $5000. She's a criminal defense attorney (hopefully not much longer) but felt she could take on a family law matter. My first hearing date, she sent her inexperienced criminal defense attorney and 1 hour later, I was informed that my children were given to my ex-husband. Then, she cut off all communications with me. Every time I called the office, nobody was able to and/or willing to answer any questions. I have not seen my children for over a year. My ex-husband is in contempt of court on several accounts, has committed 2 felony crimes, and has borderline kidnapped my children by moving and cutting off all communications. Per Jamie, the judge Alisha Jones knows about the contempt of court accounts, the felonies, and is unwilling to act upon it. Jamie stated the reason I don't have my children is because the judge doesn't like me, not because she didn't do her job. Since when is it legal for a judge to be biased and to allow crimes to be committed??? I was lucky enough to get my file back from her office and to my surprise, Jamie filed 4 documents. Each document was exactly the same but with a different date. Not only that, her office forged my signature on documents they filed with the court!! Documents I never saw! I guess forgery and perjury aren't illegal???? Jamie took a total of $10,000.00 and destroyed my life. I pray she's disbarred and locked up behind bars for many years to come.

  As i read your comments regarding Jaimie Harley, you as the mother of your children REGARDLESS of the status of the parents(per Family Code Section 7602/7601 has been violated on your part) YES you have the same situation as me w/ the Family Court, judges, CPS,FCS & other agencies they were in violation of the Family Codes and Govt Code 6201 (felony).
  As far as I have issues with the Family Law Superior Court of Sta Clara Cty, I have filed my Appellate Brief then as PRO PER, WE WENT TO SEE JAIMIE HARLEY AND told us to: JUST LOOKED UP ON MY COURT DOCUMENTS she wanted $5,000 dollars and i think a day or two, called her back COULD NOT DO IT,
  
  Wow, FELONY and PERJURY are a state and Federal crimes, there is no statute of limitaion, if you can prove that she has been appearing to the court, or perjured your signature YOU HAVE THE CASE LADY, Jaimie will have a grand jury in October 2010 at the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals Downtown at 280 S. First Street, but check it online under Judge James Ware Courtroom.
  
  My experienced with the Superior Court, judges, opposing attorney and my attorneys (both full and lmtd scope attornes WERE CROOKS, all 5 of them), YOU CANNOT believe that they were buddies, or even selling your case to opposing attorney, happened too many times during and after my divorce on 2006- 2007 then exhusband took me again on 2008- 2/2010.
  
  Look up your ACTION/CALENDAR and Document DOCKETS and compare how many times you appear and when you were not APPEAR, that is your proof and the perjury signature of yours,
  
  I experienced that my exhusband's attorney filed the same Bull shit the entire time, and the judge bought it, the judge has now removed from my case and removed from Family Law Division BUT AFTER ALL THE PAIN have caused of this judge Kevin McKenney, Dept 71 @ SJ and Dept 108 in Morgan Hill. He would not want to recuse himself due to link with exhusband's tenacious and vicious attorney Rebecca Sue Jones who is graduate and teaches part time as a law professor supposedly Jesuit School, Sta Clara U. Both of his atty and the judges were violated my Constitution, Judicial Code of Ethics, as well as Professional and Business Code of Ethics, Govt Codes, Family Codes and Protocols, DUE to I AM A PRO PER,,, now since Oct 16, 2008 they criminally took my children away due to false allegations and accusations against me and my new husband. Pls note that my exhusband has been unfaithful for the last 7 yrs of marriage to me, brought his 3rd mistresses w/ lovechild and remarried her NOT EVEN A YEAR (anniversary of the divorce), early 2008.
  I used to see my children by Sup Visitation due to those allegations such as TRO that I have never tried or indicted, BUT HE IS THE ONE WHO ABUSIVE TO MY CHILDREN, pulling my sons ears, pushed them down to couch, made them cried, during the FCS my exhusband bought my children by buying a new cars and giving my children creditcards unlimited expenses. I WOULD NOT GIVING AN INCH, I WILL FIGHT HIM THRU HELL..
