Please note that the link to Hoff's Notice of Appeal against the Oklahoma Board of Bar Examiners is posted at the end of this article.

John Hoff has announced he will be stepping aside from his beloved blog in June 2015 but, as Hoff history has shown, it does not mean Hoff will discontinue his bullying ways. It merely means, he will refocus his personal attacks on people he does not like and find another way of doing it.

Hoff has been totally exposed now that the Oklahoma Board of Bar Examiners denied his application to join the Oklahoma Bar, even though Hoff completed and passed the bar exam.
Their decision was reached after holding a Rule 11 hearing that covered Hoff's character, moral fitness and respect for the law. I was a witness for the OBBE's and testifying against John was a gratifying experience. All of Hoff's misdeeds against others finally came back to haunt him.

Hoff's long history of bullying goes back long before he began blogging in 2008 and I expect him to continue his ways even more now that he has been disgraced from his quest of becoming a lawyer.
After his blog is put to rest, Hoff will be almost 50 years old and essentially starting over from scratch (his student loan debt will likely follow him to his grave), only his public image and credibility will make things more difficult for him. Not to mention, most of his family are at odds with him and likely won't offer him much support. According to his brother, Judd, John lied to him and his mother about his Oklahoma law license status as they had not been aware of a hearing being held.

Word is going around that John will be or already has been reported to the IRS for not claiming income earned in 2013 as well as the Minnesota Unemployment Commission for claiming benefits while not reporting income he earned in Oklahoma at that time. Both of those misdeeds were proven to be fact at the Rule 11 hearing before the Oklahoma Board of Bar Examiners.

It is the opinion of this blog author that once John is officially done with his Johnny Northside blog, he will be even more dangerous and pose a bigger threat to intensify his bullying because, he might feel he has nothing more to lose after he lost his credibility and dignity (he didn't really have much of those before).

This blog might explore a few changes to the layout or maybe alter the title but, the commitment to stand up to Hoff and his cyber attacks for people scorned by him in the past as well as hoping to prevent future attacks... Will remain a priority.

To close, I offer you the opportunity to read the 8-page notice of Appeal Hoff filed in November against the Oklahoma Board of Bar Examiners after his application to become a member of the Oklahoma Bar Association was denied. It really is entertaining to read some of his insane reasoning for the basis of his appeal.
Note: The court document was obtained from the Oklahoma Supreme Court records.

John Hoff's Motion to Seal Records of Appeal Concerning Denial of Law License Ruled as "Moot" by Oklahoma Supreme Court

In December 2014, bully blogger, John Hoff AKA Johnny Northside was fighting to have the Oklahoma Supreme Court hear his appeal. Appeal? What appeal?

A quick summary of the events...

In September of 2013, John Hoff sent in his application to take the Bar Exam in the State of Oklahoma.

This blog confirmed that information by contacting the Oklahoma Board of Bar Examiners.
All applicants are required to pass a moral character background check before they become licensed.
I quickly submitted documentation about Hoff that supported my character claim about his past to the board and was finally contacted by the attorney who represents the Oklahoma Board of Bar Examiners (OBBE). I was told there would be a hearing held before the board and I agreed to testify in person.

In February of 2014, the Oklahoma Bar Association held their Bar Exam and John Hoff was allowed to take the Exam. Hoff passed the exam but, he was not allowed to join the Bar Association due to his moral character and fitness status being under review.

On April 30, 2014 John Hoff met with the board's attorney to give a deposition that lasted a full day.

A hearing was held in Oklahoma City on August 14th and 15th, 2014 and I appeared to testify on the second day of the hearing and was questioned by the board's attorney and cross examined by John Hoff.

On October 17, 2014, the Oklahoma Board of Bar Examiners officially ruled to deny Hoff's application to join the Oklahoma Bar. They based their decision on evidence presented at the August Rule 11 hearing with their reasons summarized with their Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law. Click HERE to read that document.

On November 19, 2014, John Hoff filed a motion to appeal the board of bar examiners ruling. On the same day, Hoff filed a motion to proceed Informa Pauperis in an attempt to avoid having to pay the fees required to have the appeal heard by the Oklahoma Supreme Court.
Five days later, the OBBE's filed motions to strike and dismiss.

On December 10, 2014, Hoff filed a motion with the Supreme Court to seal the records pertaining to all of the events listed above and from that date forward.

On December 10, 2015, the Oklahoma Supreme Court issued the following ruling:

"JE: MOT AND AFF OF HOFF TO PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS DENIED. ETC. PURSUANT TO RULE 11 ETC, HOFF SH/FILE, W/IN 30 DAYS OF DATE OF TH/ORDER, GOOD AND SUFF BOND TO BE APPROVED BY CLERK OF SUP CT IN AN AMOUNT SUFF TO DEFRAY COSTS OF APPEAL, INCLUDING RULE 11 TRANS. FAILURE TO TIMELY FILE COST BOND ETC SH/RESULT IN DSML OF APPEAL. ALL JUSTICES CONCUR. C/ATTYS"
On February 2, 2015, John Hoff's quest to become a licensed attorney in the State of Oklahoma officially ended as the Supreme Court dismissed Hoff's motion to appeal and declared the motion to seal the records as "Moot."

I find it difficult to read the document without being overly critical of the content written by Hoff. In a way it is simply upsetting to read his reasons for wanting the records sealed because, he really believes all the garbage he comes up with to support his motion. Thankfully, the justices of the Oklahoma Supreme Court didn't agree with him at all and because of them ruling the motion as moot.... The document is now public information and this blog has obtained a copy for the public to see.

Below is a link that will allow readers to see the PDF file. Enjoy and more to come!
