A California notary public accuses Couri, and Couri admits to forging the California notary's signature and notary stamp 33 times.

California notary public, Eileen Ohanian, accused Couri of forging her signature and notary stamp on thirty-three (33) of  Couri's court filed affidavits. Couri's forged affidavits were filed in the New York State Supreme Court, and in the New York State Supreme Court, Appellate Division, First Department.  Ms. Ohanian explained that she notarized Mr. Couri's signature on 51 different affidavits from July 2008 to January 2009. But after January 2009, she did not see and did not provide notarial services to Mr. Couri. All thirty-three of Couri's forged affidavits are dated after January 2009.

In California, each notary public maintains a log book in which they record the name and address, driver's license number and fingerprint of the person whose signature is being notarize. In addition, the person whose signature is being notarized must sign the notaries log book.

When confronted with the fact that he forged the signature and notary stamp Ms. Ohanian on 33 different occasions, Mr. Couri admitted in court papers that he forged Ms. Ohanian's signatures and notary stamps. But claim he had been "duped" by Ms. Ohanian!

For many years now, Mr. Couri has claimed and continues to claim that he is in California receiving medical treatment and is too sick to travel to  New York to participate in the Couri vs. Siebert litigation litigation in which Mr. Couri is acting as his own attorney. Yet, despite Mr. Couri's alleged illness, in the last 12 months he filed nearly 50 affidavits, launch the website scamraiders.com, and posted more than a dozen videos to Youtube.com.

Notably, the United States Attorney's Office, Southern District of New York, during their investigation of the 33 Couri forgeries, spoke to Couri on his cell phone on or about October 1, 2009, triangulated Mr. Couri’s location, and determined that Couri was in New York. 

Couri defrauded the judges of the New York State Supreme Court when he claimed he was too sick to travel from California to New York. 

The forgeries make sense from Couri's perspective. Couri forged Ms. Ohanian's signatures to his affidavits because if had sworn before a New York State notary public, it would have necessarily disclosed to the Courts that he was in New York despite his claims to the contrary.

Below is the sworn statement of Eileen Ohanian in which she accused Mr. Couri of forging her signature and her notary stamp on thirty-three different occasions.
