Kendra Brown, Case No.: [Case number] 

Plaintiff, Violation of 6th Amendment 

Professional Malpractice Neglect 

vs. 

Laura Bryant, 

Defendant 

Plaintiff has filed a law suit in Federal court for violation of 6th Amendment rights. and 

professional malpractice/neglect were violated by purposely not representing the 

Plaintiff in "good faith" during a "fact finding" trial in Middlesex County Superior 

Courthouse. The violation is as follows: 

The Defendant committed Legal Malpractice, Professional negligence by NOT notifying 

the Judge, that the trial should NOT go forward, but ask for a continuance at another 

time because the Plaintiff's career with children were at risk . 

The Defendants excuse is she assumed that the Plaintiff. Kendra Brown knew 

what it meant because she worked for Middlesex County Superior Court in the Criminal 

Division in the past before she became a Corrections Officer. The Plaintiff thought a 

FACT FINDING meant PROBABLE CAUSE HEARING (which the Plaintiff learned is a 

term not used in Children in court cases). 

Defendant Laura Bryant committed Professional Negligence the outcome of the 

decision of "Guilty" by Judge Cantor, would not have been an aggravating factor. If all of 

the evidence/parties involved were allowed to testify. The aggravating factors of 

Defendant Laura Bryant, for her lack of ethics when the Defendant has a legal 

obligation to the Plaintiff Kendra Brown and exercise the highest duty the law 

imposes. Defendant Laura Bryant and the fact that she neglected the, Plaintiff Kendra 

Brown has suffered emotionally. financially, and her reputation has been unjustly 

injured.

Defendant Laura Bryant represented the Plaintiff, In "Bad Faith". The Plaintiff had 

major surgery on her abdomen which resulted in a 22 inch wound. The 

prosecution/investigator Dody BuUerman of the Division of Youth and Family signed 

affidavits that the Plaintiff Kendra Brown was on vacation when in fact the Plaintiff 

Kendra Brown had surgery for medical reasons. However, it is unclear to me how one 

can be punished for being comatose and injected with narcotics for pain. This is not the 

case of ambiguity yet the Defendant did not dispute what the prosecution/ or 

investigator Dody Bul/erman swore too although it was a fabricated story. 

Nevertheless, Def. Laura Bryant continued the trial on July 23, 2009, and the 

Plaintiff was found unfortunately "guilty. n Defendant Laura Bryant had an opportunity to 

file a motion for reconsideration stating the fact that she knew undoubtedly and absolute 

the Plaintiff did not know she was in trial and request reconsideration. 

Once again the Defendant had another opportunity to file a motion for 

reconsideration based on the fact that the Psychiatrist Vivian Chern Shnaidman, M.D. 

appointed by the Division of Youth and Family Services FORMULATION AND 

RECOMMENDATION: Kendra Brown made child care arrangements with someone wh 

turned out to be unreliable. Such a betrayal by a childcare worker is hardly unique. In 

Ms. Brown's case, ;t appears that the Division became overly concerned with Ms. Brow 

because she referred to the misSing babysitter as "Linda", rather: Michele". Again, as 

the Division did not provide me with those primary documents I do not know if this was 

the reason for the excessive concern. However, based upon Ms. Brown's self-report, 

she experienced fairly typical post-surgical and post-anesthesia delirium following the 

administration of general anesthesia, strong narcotic pain medications, and an airline 

flight at $35,000 + feet. Therefore, confusion is expected under these conditions and 

psychosis would not be unusual. In fact, the only study I could find about psychiatric 

consultations in general hospitals indicated that the most common requests for 

psychiatric consultation come from the plastic surgery and rehabilitation departments. 

(see attached)The Defendant failed to make sure that the Plaintiff's children had due 

process because the Biological child Brandon Brown (14) should have had separate 

law guardian from his adopted (from DYFS) sister Jessica Brown due to Conflict of 

Interest prior to a trial. Again the Defendant did not see this as an issue until

approximately 4 months after the "Guilty verdict". If the Defendant had not neglected he 

duties the law guardian for Brandon Brown would have allowed the Plaintiff to stay in 

the house, and recuperate from the major surgery as long as the older child Phillip 

Brown of (Plaintiff Kendra Brown, mother of Phillip Brown) was the main Guardian 

whom was appointed by DYFS, the justice he deserved. 

Defendant failed to obtain complete discovery, as to the children's physicals 

when the DYFS took the children, for an emergency physical to check for abuse or 

neglect, the Defendant never raised the issue towards the DYFS to prove imminent 

danger or the arrest. 

The children were examined by a DYFS appointed therapists proved that the 

Plaintiff Kendra Brown did not commit neglect and abuse or imminent danger is not the 

case she did not file a motion for reconsideration. The Def. Laura Bryant has no 

remorse for neglect she committed towards the Plaintiff Kendra Brown. 

If Judge Cantor had witnessed the Plaintiff's cell phone bill which reflects 

conversation with the babysitter, children, her oldest son, his girlfriend, her mother and 

Plaintiff's father and her boyfriend, along with her cousin who took her to the airport who 

had the keys for Michelle to get into the house; in case the teenagers tried to be typical 

teens and not let her in; to be able to have access into the house to let them know she 

was okay, and the Principal of Highland Park Middle School who never gave the 

guidance counselor authorization to call the DYFS because he knew what kind of paren " 

the Plaintiff is and therefore, he figured that it was some sort of mis-communication and 

he had infact told the guidance counselor to keep calling or call the emergency contact 

listed for the children; but the guidance counselor made her own rules and called the 

DYFS, the Principal Mr. Horowitz was a key witness in the Plaintiff's parenting of her 

children. Judge Cantor rules by law not by personal opinion, because the Defendant 

Laura Bryant committed a malicious act of Legal Malpractice Professional neglect; the 

judge went by the preponderance of the evidence that was before her, and entered a 

judgment of "Guilty" In addition to the above neglect the Oef. Laura Bryant committed, 

the Plaintiff never received a Dodd from OYFS until January 25, 2011. THE PLAINTIFF
