Case Summary

Explanation of the events leading up to the suspicious death of Ivan. J. Fail and the wrongful taking of the inheritance of one of four siblings by the other three siblings, and other family members including Leavenworth Lawyer Gary Nelson, and Patty Hon.

I lost my mother on January 31, 2000. She was 88. I lost my father on December 21, 2005.  He was 92. My father and mother loved and trusted their four children equally. They never deceived us and they were always there for us. They were fair and honest with each one of us. They never favored one over the other. I loved and respected them for their loyalty and dedication and who they were. I loved trusted my three siblings.  After my mother passed my father and I trusted them to hold in their names, with their knowledge and consent, my share of the land and estate assets that he wanted me to have after he passed. This was an informal arrangement know as a constructive trust. They have chosen to breach the trust that my father and I placed in them. They made the choice to dishonor our parents and their wishes and keep my property for them selves.

These events were brought about as a result of a Colorado Lawyer’s decision to steal my business in 1990 and the litigation that resulted. The resulting tributary events were expensive and created contingent liabilities that changed my life forever. To protect my family and our property from the litigation and contingent liabilities, on my instructions my father removed my name from the family wills and we placed the property in his and my mother’s names.  In 2000 when my mother passed we placed the property in the names of my three siblings with their knowledge and consent to hold in trust for my children and me.  After my father passed they all got a bad case of amnesia at the same time, (Made Medical History) and stole my property, and then set about telling the world about what a crook brother Larry is.

The Colorado Lawyer that took my business was my sales manager and an employee of my company Ad-X International, Inc. He had signed a non-compete agreement with my company agreeing not misuse my company’s trade secrets and start a competing company.  He chose to breach the agreement and started his own competing company I 1990. As a manager with premeditated criminal intent he was instrumental in increasing my companies overhead and liabilities and demoralizing and dismantling my sales staff so that he could take over and steal my company. He covertly built his business within my business similar to what a parasite does within the body of its victim. He was instrumental in spreading rumors about me and my company to my company’s clients and employees thereby enabling himself to convert my employees and clients to his own company for his own use.

In an attempt to enforce my non-compete agreement I filed litigation against the lawyer in 1990. The Court enforced my agreement and under Colorado Law issued an order that would restrain the lawyer from competing with my company providing that I post a $100,000 cash bond.  I was unable to do so and he continued in business for seven years. The litigation continued for the next 13 years with 13 different lawyers, nine different Judges in four different judicial jurisdictions until I won a U.S. District Court Judgment against the lawyer and his wife in 2003 in excess of $5,000,000. It is as financially worthless as he is. The Colorado Supreme Court disbarred lawyer Kolbjornsen because he committed bankruptcy fraud against me.

Even though Federal Bankruptcy Judge Brooks, and the Colorado Supreme Court found that Kolbjornsen committed Bankruptcy Fraud , the Bankruptcy Trustee refused to file criminal charges against Kolbjornsen for 4 ½ years. Then after my repeated requests on a monthly basis she finally agreed to do a criminal referral to the FBI. I turned all of my books and records that had cost me over $30,000 to assemble over to the FBI that pertained Kolbjornsen’s fraud.  They poured over them and they told my lawyer that I had a great case.  Ah - finally justice and the possibility of Court Ordered Financial Restitution so I could pay my bills and feed my lawyers and my kids.

The FBI took all of my information to the U.S. Attorney’s office to have charges filed.  The U.S. Attorney’s office said you have a great case, h o w e v e r, the five (5) year statute of Limitations has passed and we cannot file charges.  Kolbjornsen and his wife celebrated America’s Judicial System.  My costly records had also revealed that Kolbjornsen and his wife had under reported their income over a seven (7) year period by $490,000.  I mailed this information to the IRS three different times in an attempt to earn an award to recoup some of my losses and pay them the money that I owed as a result of Kolbjornsen’s criminal acts against me.  Each time the IRS responded by telling me that they were not interested and not to write to them again. I often think that my bad Karma is because I was lawyer in a past life. For the rest of the story, Go to Google on the internet and enter the name Kenneth Edward Kolbjornsen.  Also Google Trenton H. Parker his partner in crime. 

Parker was an associate of Kolbjornsen.  An acquaintance referred to me Mr. Parker who was acting as a rental agent at an office building at 1380 Sherman Street in Denver Colorado.  I rented some space from Mr. Parker to re-start my business after Kolbjornsen had stolen it from me and put me on the street.  Within weeks of moving in Mr. Parker locked me out and stole by new business with the help of Kolbjornsen and an associate named Bill that I seen at the location.  He had also been an employee of my old company that Kolbjornsen took. I sued Parker in 1993 and got a $567,000 judgment against him in Judge Herbert Stern’s Denver District Court.

Two of Parker’s employees testified against him and told the Court that they had helped Parker steal my property.  Parker committed bankruptcy fraud as did Kolbjornsen and put me into involuntary bankruptcy.  It was later dismissed.  My idiot lawyer Joe Hughes would not ask for my attorney fees to be paid even though the visiting Judge did ask him if he wanted to.  Judge Stern found that Parker had committed crimes against me and awarded me treble damages.  I went to Denver DA Norm Early and pleaded with him to file criminal charges against Parker as I wanted Court Ordered Restitution as my Judgment against Trenton H. Parker was, and still is, as worthless as he is. DA Early personally promised me on the phone that he “would look into it.”  Shortly thereafter he took a fat paying political job with Lockheed Martin as director of security. 

I then took my pleas to the new DA Bill Ritter. I wrote him many letters and talked with him on the phone.  He told me that he would consider filing charges against Mr. Parker providing that I could show him paperwork to support my complaints.  I asked him if Judge Stern’s “Finding Of Fact” that he prepared after Trenton Parker’s Civil Trial would be acceptable. DA Ritter told me that he would look at it.  I hand carried Judge Stern’s Finding of Fact” to DA Ritter’s office three different times as his office had misplaced it twice. Then after many phone calls and letters to DA Ritter I finally received the “Dear Larry” Letter from DA Ritter’s associate DA, Phil Parrot. He told me “We have visited this issue before” and in essence told me to get lost. Who knows where DA Early went? Trenton H. Parker went on to rob and plunder other people’s lives.

Phil Parrot retired with accolades, awards and honors and a fat monthly retirement check. Bill Ritter was promoted to Governor of Colorado.  I am still attempting to find peace, justice and forgiveness. Can there be forgiveness without justice?    

There were many tributary legal problems to numerous to mention herein that  feel upon me as a result of the Criminal acts committed against me by both Kolbjornsen and Parker. I had to install a number machine at my front so the bill collectors could take a number and wait their turn. Other problems were created by other people that wanted to join the gang and vilify me for their own self interests. Kolbjornsen had planted a sectary in my office through another lawyer to recruit my employees and covertly steal my records.  She also falsely accused me of making an obscene phone call to her. While acting as my sectary she had typed a letter of complaint for me that I filed with the Arapahoe Count District Attorney’s Office against assistant DA Carol Chambers. 

I had filed the complaint because she had kept my ten year old twin sons and me waiting on her for 3 ½ hours in her office when we had gone to see her about a shoving match that my sons had with some neighborhood friends.
