Comments:
Judge Archilla issued a restraining order against me in Gloucester ct. The order was requested by my ex wife, whom I haven't had any contact, verbal, physical or electronic in 4 years. I have only seen her in the Cambridge courthouse during court related business. The restraining order was awarded because my ex filed a false contempt charge against me in Cambridge ct. A contempt charge that was dismissed by judge Gargas a few weeks later. I informed the court of this. Fast forward a year into the order, I again attempt to have the order lifted so I can attempt to get my kids back and attend my father in laws funeral, not wanting to be hauled into court for violating the order. I again supplied Judge Patten with the dismissal by Judge Gargas. Judge patten didn't even look at me and would not allow my motion to lift the order. I again informed him that I haven't seen my ex in years. he didn't care

He has the blood of a police officer on his hands. Should be removed immediately.
