4 October 2004,
...
The Commission for the Administration of Justice has taken note of your letters dated 19th August 2002 and 22nd September 2002.
I kindly request that you inform me who was present during the court hearing on 4th February 2002 (referring to the sitting during which I was threatened by Magistrate Peralta, who said he would smash me against the wall).
The complaint regarding the lawyer, Dr. Anglu Farrugia, has been forwarded to the Committee for Lawyers.
Awaiting your reply.
Dr. Deborah Farrugia.

English translation:
The Commission for the Administration of Justice has tasked me with informing you that the Sub-Commission, after examining all relevant acts and dispositions, is of the opinion that the complaint filed by Nicholas Grech can be considered justified solely in relation to certain remarks that Magistrate Carol Peralta may have made from the bench concerning Mr. Grech. These remarks made Mr. Grech feel that he was not being treated as he should have been, and they could be considered inappropriate, as they were not fruitful to the proper conduct of the proceedings.

Analysis

If his words "were not fruitful to the proper conduct of the proceedings," then why did Peralta utter them from the tribune? Was he drunk? Was he provoked? Or did he perhaps think he was in some local band club, behaving so absurdly and inappropriately for a courtroom setting?

None of these explanations are tenable. Magistrate Peralta’s conduct was a deliberate attempt to intimidate me into silence and to obstruct the disclosure of false testimony and perjury committed by his associate, the former Registrar of the Courts. I had just confronted him directly about the matter — a case of perjury that had occurred approximately seven months earlier, during a court sitting on 5 July 2001. In that hearing, the former Registrar knowingly gave false testimony, with the full collusion and apparent endorsement of the police involved. The clear objective was to revoke my bail based on fabricated evidence.

It is also significant that the letter referenced above is dated 4 October 2004 — no less than 973 days, or over 32 months, after the incident of 4 February 2002, when Magistrate Carol Peralta threatened me with physical violence in open court. By then, Peralta had already exiled himself in the Balkans, avoiding this very Commission and its duty to dismiss him, stalling for time and hoping the whole affair would simply cool down. Such an extraordinary delay in addressing a matter of this gravity is deeply troubling. Moreover, this was only one of several serious complaints I put forward, every single one of them brushed aside or thrown out without the slightest real investigation — all to protect the big heads and their circle of friends. The Commission’s protracted silence and continued inaction further suggest a deliberate effort to shield Magistrate Peralta from scrutiny and to avoid holding him accountable for his egregious misconduct.

The subsequent claim of "delusions of persecution," attributed solely by the fraudulent psychiatrist Dr. David Cassar during the court sitting on 12 June 2002 to justify locking me up in hospital, was nothing but a blatant lie. This letter confirms it was not a matter of mental illness, but rather something malicious and deeply corrupt happening within my case.

But how could anyone doubt the opinion of a supposed expert like Dr. Cassar, especially when the case was being heard by Magistrate Carol Peralta — an accomplice who had much to lose if I wasn’t discredited and labelled as mentally unfit before it was too late? Their aim was clear: to prevent me from ever being in a position to expose these abuses and to ensure that I wouldn’t be believed.

And why didn’t my lawyers intervene or speak up? Why such favoritism?

Not only is it uncomfortable for any lawyer to challenge a magistrate — his superior — for the sake of his client, but my opponent happened to be a former court registrar. The courtroom was his playground. He knew everyone, and wherever he went, people greeted him warmly and respectfully.

It was certainly no coincidence that Magistrate Carol Peralta went into self-imposed exile in July 2003 to work as a magistrate in Kosovo (his last [criminal] sentence is dated 30 June 2003). This move was, at least in part, an attempt to avoid further embarrassment for the Commission for the Administration of Justice, which had been covering up his misconduct instead of firing and prosecuting him. They were surely trying to help him save face, likely anticipating that I would have escalated the matter further if he had continued to preside over my case with such evident favoritism.

His appointment in Kosovo was far from a prestigious international post, such as at the International Court of Justice in The Hague. On the contrary, it was in an unstable region, and just a year later, in 2004, serious unrest broke out. During that period, violent mobs destroyed UNESCO World Heritage sites, including many ancient churches and monasteries dating back to the Byzantine era, some over 1,500 years old.

To offer a comparison: imagine that the then Bishop of Gozo, Mario Grech — rather than being promoted to Cardinal — was quietly sent away to serve as bishop in a remote African village. Naturally, many would speculate that such a move was a consequence of abuse, mismanagement, or scandal.

Amazingly, Peralta returned to Malta as a magistrate in March 2012 (his first [criminal] sentence after his return is dated 9 June 2012). I had to face him again during my second court case in 2014. Rather than recusing himself, he used the opportunity to exact revenge on me for previously reporting him to the Commission (see above).

Had he remained in Malta, he might have been promoted to judge and would today be enjoying a judge’s pension. For those who believe his time in the Balkans was a career advancement, that’s like saying a primary school teacher went abroad to work as a university professor, only to return to the same primary school as a teacher again — an arguably even more humiliating demotion. In fact, upon his return, he reportedly said he “could not say whether he would be returning to the bench.”

Upon his reinstatement in March 2012, he held a Christmas party in the courtroom in December 2013 — not simply to celebrate the festive season, but to celebrate his return from exile after nearly nine years abroad. He had avoided holding such a party the year before (December 2012), likely because the PN/Gonzi government was still in power and he had only just returned to the court. But with the Labour Party winning a landslide victory in March 2013, he felt emboldened and even attended a “Labour lunch” shortly after.

After this courtroom party was reported to the Commission, Peralta announced in August 2015 that he was “retiring,” not resigning — again, likely to spare the Commission the embarrassment of having to dismiss him. This allowed him to leave quietly, protect his career, and begin receiving a magistrate’s pension, which he probably would have lost had he been formally expelled from the judiciary. Compare this to other cases where individuals were similarly allowed to avoid disciplinary action by being quietly boarded out.

Magistrate Carol Peralta’s 24-Hour Verdict: A Legacy of Uncertainty for Innocent Homeowners

From this link:
"Everything seemed to proceed smoothly, until in 1989, following the death of one of the administrators, Richard Stagno Navarra came forward, claiming to be the descendant of Cosmana Cumbo Navarra, and therefore the rightful heir who deserved to choose an administrator or to be appointed one himself.
Then archbishop Joseph Mercieca denied his request, arguing the administrator must be a cleric.
Unhappy with the archbishop’s refusal, Stagno Navarra opened a court case, asking to be recognised as the descendant and rightful heir to the foundation. His lawyer was Carmelo Galea.
Within a day, magistrate Carol Peralta proclaimed him the rightful heir and recognised him as new administrator. ... The decision was controversial since the Church did not get to make its case in court, and critics were sceptical how accurately the magistrate could trace the man’s lineage back to 1675 in 24 hours.
Most importantly, the decision raised eyebrows since Stagno Navarra had already signed off a piece of land to companies owned by his lawyer and magistrate Dennis Montebello (now a retired judge). ..."

Carol Peralta: When a Magistrate Becomes Just Another Property Speculator

As further proof of what Carol Peralta is truly made of, consider his application PA/03488/19 (site image included in case PA dares to alter the original "Description of works"). The application concerns a site in Mellieħa, located in an Outside Development Zone (ODZ), where he proposes to turn what was agricultural land into a massive eyesore: a six-storey hotel with 118 guest rooms, two bars, four retail spaces, parking facilities, a gym, a restaurant, two pools, and more.

With his twisted mentality, he tries to present this monstrosity as somehow beneficial to the environment, the scenery, and even the Mellieħa skyline — concluding the application with the laughable addition: “landscaping works including maintenance of rubble walls.” That’s like claiming to cure someone’s asthma by giving them AIDS.

From my own experience, it’s the same mentality that allowed him to have psychiatrists appointed to assess me, fraudulenty diagnosing me with multiple severe and chronic mental illnesses — without scientific basis — simply with the stroke of a pen. All intended to protect his own career while maliciously branding me as “mentally ill,” thereby discrediting my efforts to expose numerous abuses, including his own. And of course, making it easier for others to dismiss me without question.

Abuses of Magistrate Carol Peralta

The narcissist of the now ex-Magistrate Carol Peralta, with the Bosnian flag behind him, where he had to go exile himself for nearly 9 years after I reported him.

1. In my first Court case of 2001 he did a cover-up of the abuses I told him that had been done on me.
2. Instead of investigating he threatened me with the words "Don't respond to me for I'll smash you against the wall" in a Court room and in public.
3. The threat he addressed to me was in the form of extortion (rikatt), with whatever hidden meaning it contained: 1) the condition - "Don't respond to me", to 2) the repercussions - "for I'll smash you against the wall."
4. He ensured that I be kidnapped in Mount Carmel hospital in 2002 innocently to discredit me and save his career.
5. When he kidnapped me in hospital he knew I was going to be drugged up with pills to silence me once forever.
6. When he kidnapped me in hospital made it with the intention to intimidate me that I suffer repercussions if I dare report him.
7. He nominated for me a lawyer Tonio Azzopardi instead of another one whose turn it was intentionally to favor him and my opponents by not mentioning anything of their abuses and make fool of me.
8. He was an accomplice with Psychiatrist David Cassar when he knew he was testifying falsely on me labeling me the mental to save him his career.
9. Because of these abuses started by him, I ended, when the sentence of my first court case was given in 2005, locked again innocently in Mount Carmel hospital and when I had my 2nd Court case of 2014 I ended once again locked innocently in this hospital as they continued to built on the lies that had originated on me from my first case.
10. He didn't recuse himself in my 2nd Court case of 2014 when he knew he had a conflict of interest because of the abuses he had done on me in the past and me having reported him to the Commission for the Administration of Justice (see above) and in this way once again deprived me from the right for a fair hearing.
11. In my 2nd Court case of 2014, despite knowing frame-ups and character assassination were done on me by the Police so much that in his sentence he mentioned the animals I used to find them already dead, he didn't question why my accusations were maliciously done with exactly the opposite meaning and made a cover-up of these abuses.
12. He intentionally appointed the Psychiatrists of my first case as obviously he got what he wanted with them, as if Psychiatrists would contradict themselves what they have said years before, in particular if everything had a malicious start.
13. So much he was doing everything in revenge, that even a simple date when he gave the sentence 26-Jun-14, neither a day before, nor a day after, was intentioned to show me the revenge he long had in mind of doing me from my 1st court case.
14. With the sentence he gave, he ensured that I be kidnapped once again innocently to Mount Carmel Hospital when he knew perfectly well the Psychiatrists's reports were totally fake, non-scientific, and unreliable, to the point of calling one of them inconclusive.
15. To save his career and cover-up his abuses and those of his friends, I had to suffer miscarriage of justice in both my 2 Court cases and end maliciously labeled the mental for all my life which in itself ruined my life forever and had repercussions even on my relatives.
