New York State Supreme Court Justice Ronald Castorina Jr. issued a bench warrant for the arrest of former NYPD Detective and 9/11 first responder Guy Simonetti for his failure to pay sums of money to his wife and her array of lawyers.
Simonetti lives in Florida.
Justice Castorina’s previous orders depleted Simonetti savings, froze his bank accounts, and tapped his pension and IRA to help pay for the large legal fees attorneys for his wife incurred on Staten Island, where justices know attorneys are crucial to their political careers.
Unable to afford legal representation, Simonetti filed documents pro se with the Supreme Court Appellate Division, seeking a stay of his arrest due to claims of a health condition that prohibits him from traveling.
Simonetti retired from the NYPD in 2003. After serving valiantly in the aftermath of 9/11, his health deteriorated, and even after invasive surgery, his prognosis remains dire.
Justice Castorina, a no-nonsense matrimonial and family court judge who prefers operating without a jury, seeks to have Simonetti arrested and brought before him, which will be a novel experience for a police officer who risked his life to protect the public. Justice Castorina is aware of Simonetti’s medical condition. Physician’s reports and medical records available to the judge indicate Simonetti has Factor V Leiden and Factor V deficiency. Factor V Leiden is a genetic mutation that increases the risk of developing abnormal blood clots, while Factor V deficiency is a rare bleeding disorder that results in poor clotting.
Simonetti’s arrest poses significant risks, according to medical experts. Factor V Leiden could lead to the formation of dangerous blood clots, potentially causing loss of blood flow and subsequent loss of limbs. Factor V deficiency could result in excessive bleeding, which could be life-threatening. These risks might be manageable if arresting officers come with qualified healthcare professionals during his transport from Florida to New York.
Justice Castorina however is willing to take the risk of arresting Simonetti, knowing that air travel for a person with Factor V Leiden or Factor V deficiency increases the risk of developing blood clots. He apparently might be open to Simonetti, who is largely homebound, renting a wheelchair-accessible van with a driver and surrender in New York.
The cost, about $6,000 with trained personnel paid by Simonetti, would spare taxpayers the cost of US marshals handling extradition.
Castorina has been advised and may likely advise Simonetti after his arrest and appearance before him that in jail he should take anticoagulant medication and wear compression stockings. However, it is unclear if Simonetti will be able to wear compression stockings while in custody.
By his actions, Castorina refutes suggestions of anti-police bias, noting the necessity of paying attorneys representing people in matrimonial cases and their long-standing support of him.
Castorina has ruled similarly in other cases involving law enforcement officers. In one instance, he reportedly required a retired officer to surrender his World Trade Center Victim’s Compensation Funds during a divorce proceeding, despite legal prohibitions.
Justice Castorina was accused of perjury in a 2018 grand jury testimony, a case highlighted by the Frank Report. Richard Luthmann, a former attorney and writer for the publication, is currently suing Castorina.
Supporters of Castorina say he had no choice but to be deceptive in the grand jury for at that time he was only a NYS Assemblyman and truthful testimony would have blocked his election to the judiciary because he would have been indicted. Political observers note that Special District Attorney Eric Nelson had predetermined he would indict Luthmann, so it did not matter whether Castorina testified truthfully.
If Castorina prevails in the Simonetti divorce case, he will demonstrate to police officers and first responders throughout New York that he will not tolerate any more of their misconduct.
He has already stripped Simonetti of his finances, and should Simonetti suffer severe health consequences, it would further illustrate Castorina’s uncompromising stance.
Should the worst happen and Simonetti dies from the forced travel, Castorina might argue it reduces the number of surplus retired 9/11 responders, pointing out that while Simonetti rushed toward Ground Zero, he and every politician he knew were wisely moving away as quickly as possible.
Simonetti, acting pro se, filed documents with the Supreme Court Appellate Division on Monroe Place in Brooklyn.

The Staten Island Advance should post a story on the front page to let everyone know in Staten Island what they’re dealing with
You don’t need the staten island advance the story gets around quicker
Than you think
Frank Report might have a larger audience
On his Facebook page you see him with army fatigues and like he’s some war hero the bottom line is he was in the army reserve he used to wash the disabled tanks in front of the armory
I used to pass the armory and seen Castorina washing the tanks I would wave to him
The only explanation is that Castorina must of been bullied in school and now he’s taking his frustrations out on all the wrong people sad
I heard he abuses his chicken. He literally chokes it. Why he does this is beyond me.
KARMA

LOL
Castorina must be scared shitless that random anonymous people on the internet say mean things about him. That’s how lawsuits are decided, right? By how many negative comments appear on the Frank Report?
LOL
No. But while his colleagues take big shits at the courthouse they’ll have plenty to laugh at. And Castorina will always wonder if his colleagues read those funny fat jokes on the Frank Report
LOL
This article wins the award for the most anonymous comments.
No way this is all Frank and Richie trying to trash a judge who is laughing at their pitiful lawsuit.
You two are convicted federal criminals.
LOL
How’s house arrest treating you, Frank?
How’s your anus healing, Richie?
LOL
I heard judge castorina refers to women as c__ts
Is that what he calls his own mom?
Yes he calls me a cunt because I gave birth to him and sometimes because dinner is late.
He actually calls women dirty Cunts
It’s our entire government system. There are good people within, prevented from acting with integrity.
Wake up
That’s absolutely a true statement.
Now there are two assholes you need to know the FACTS
What are the facts? Not sure if this guy deserves it or the judge is currupt. The government is absolutely involved just unsure if this is one of those cases
Judge is corrupt!!!!!
Wicked witch stirring up the pot!
The judge is 200% corrupt you need to Google his name and you’ll find out all about him his nickname is Pinocchio
Castorina has no integrity
He should admit his guilt step down as a sitting judge
You’re only making it worse for yourself
Come clean
Maybe there spare you
What is wrong with our court system???
Was their a shortage of candidates running??
Castorina was picked
Really?????
Must be a mistake !
It’s like picking a turd 😉
This case is small fries compared to what he’s going to be going against
Castorina
Castorina needs to pay his own lawyer
Do as I say not as I do
He sits in court watching the litigants take the oath
The same oath that he has no regard for
What a farce
LOCK HIM UP.
You need to keep a close eye on this dirt bag Castorina because his criminal case is coming soon
Richard, how much are you suing Fat Ass Castorina for? If you really want to piss him off, just have all the Burger King’s closed in NY.
Its a scream to watch incorruptible_bk own you on Reddit mate. Why are you afraid to do anything about it?
Who is this BK coward? To paraphrase Garaufis– “I’m just a local guy from Buffalo and you’ve got an anonymous guy who hasn’t the guts to use his own name. Why should anyone look upon that person as someone who is worthy of respect?”
interesting.
Frank when you forget all the lessons your learned in your anger management class and take it out on Peaches by beating and raping her do you let Luthmann have sloppy seconds or does he only get to watch on web cam? How did you forcing Peaches to put up a Justfans account go? I heard she’s so old and saggy even the geriatric fetish lovers weren’t willing to pay.
😩 omg Im getting laid and didn’t know it, and for the record Frank would have to watch. I prefer to put bad boys in the corner to take notes 😉
Ok Chris
Castorina quote do as I say, not as I do
Total hypocrite
How many bars of gold does Ronald Castorina have. The FBI should check his closet
Ronald Castorina should join the rubber gavel sqard and stay their until his own criminal case is resolved
He should also join a gym, hair care for men, a swim team, Jane Fondas hair care for men and women and lastly he should join a chain gang
Castorina is the only judge not approved by the Richmond county bar association
I can only hope that he is removed
How does he get away with that
His own peers can’t stand him

NY can now segregate families based on sickness, ugh
I can’t believe he doesn’t get electrocuted when he puts on his robe for court
Frank your piece here is just like Raniere’s Rule 33 motion… you don’t even claim the guilty guy is innocent.
LOL
So what if this guy is a cop who got paid overtime for working 9/11? Thank him for his service. But he doesn’t get a get of jail free card. This is the real world not the game of Monopoly.
You claim to be a Republican but you sound like a whiny AOC woke soyboi.
LOL
This is a civil case
He is not the green river strangler
The court needs to concentrate on the real criminals
Justice Castorina, thank you for following your oath to uphold the law without prejudice, even when a law enforcement officer is involved. By doing so you help maintain the reputation of this blessed nation’s justice system. I admire your refusal to be corrupted by police unions.
If Mr. Simonetti were to be allowed to continue thumbing his nose at the justice system because he was a first responder during 9/11, it would mean the terrorists have won. No true patriot could be comfortable with that outcome.
If Mr. Simonetti is so concerned about his medical conditions, he should endeavor to follow the court’s instructions and discharge his financial obligations in the future.
You have no clue as to what’s going on you’re better off saying nothing you’re starting to look stupid
Thank u for your service
But your an asshole
LOL
I think you meant “you’re.”
Learn to spell, soyboi!
If you stop taking estrogen, your brain might work better.
LOL
I’m surprised he doesn’t get electrocuted when he puts on his robe for court
Judge Ronald Castorina should not be sitting on the bench
He’s a disgrace
I swear that’s my shit face Ronald Castorina Jr. Your face and my constipated face look the same
Boo hoo. People have to pay their debts.
If you don’t like capitalism move to North Korea and see how you like it there.
the judge is clearly out of his mind.
Why didn’t Castorina pay Luthmann?
Because he’s above the law
I think the scorn wife is reading this report along with the wicked witch of the west
What??
Why is this man on the bench?
He needs to go!!!
If digital IDs and central bank digital currency (CBDC) eventually control American government, the most horrible judges will simply push a button to freeze billions of bank accounts in “court” nightmares around the world. The Microsoft/MITRE system was the beta test during the lockdown and yet, most people still think corruption in court, politics and business has nothing to do with them.
“Citizen Portal” might help.

Too many policymakers usually think of “stakeholders” as government administrators, wealthy business owners and multinational corporations — maybe because so many citizens stay away from politics. We’re fooled into “You can’t fight City Hall.” mode — and we’re actually supposed to actually be City Hall. “Of, by and for the people”, remember?
If you listen closely to local, state, national and international government bureaucrats use the word “stakeholder”, it’s usually not in a phrase such as: “citizens, elected leaders and other stakeholders”.
Citizen Portal AI is free. So is being a citizen.
It’s all about getting the lawyers paid. Enough is never enough with the court racketeers. No Justice. Castorina is an animal.
This judge is a class act. NOT! He’s a shyster in a robe.
What’s his next act? Stealing a 12-year-old’s lunch money? Going under an 8-year-old’s pillow and leaving an IOU for the tooth fairy fee? Sick.
