You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:
This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 52.91.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:26, 2 September 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

He received his J.D. from [[Emory University Law School]] in 1977.

Klayman founded Judicial Watch in 1994. During his tenure, Judicial Watch filed several lawsuits against [[Bill Clinton]] and the Clinton administration. Klayman left Judicial Watch to pursue political office. In 2004, Klayman ran for the [[US Senate]] from [[2004 United States Senate election in Florida|Florida]] but lost the [[United States Republican Party|Republican Party]] primary, finishing seventh out of eight candidates.<ref>((cite web|url=https://doe.dos.state.fl.us/elections/resultsarchive/Index.asp?ElectionDate=8/31/2004&DATAMODE=|title=Division of Elections - Florida Department of State|publisher=doe.dos.state.fl.us|access-date=May 10, 2016))</ref> After his run for the Senate, Klayman formed Freedom Watch.<ref name="freedomwatchbio">((cite web|url=http://www.freedomwatchusa.org/about |title=About Freedom Watch |publisher=Freedomwatchusa.org |access-date=March 5, 2011))</ref> He says the name originated from an episode of ''[[The West Wing]]'' in which he was caricatured as "Larry Claypool".<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.freedomwatchusa.org/harry-klaypool-of-freedom-watch|title=Larry Klayman aka Harry Klaypool of Freedom Watch @ FreedomWatchUSA.org|publisher=freedomwatchusa.org|access-date=May 10, 2016))</ref><ref>((cite news|url=http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/chatterbox/2003/10/larry_klayman_for_senate.html|title=Larry Klayman for Senate?|first=Timothy|last=Noah|date=October 2, 2003|work=[[Slate (magazine)|Slate]]))</ref>

===Legal tactics===
Klayman has a reputation for using aggressive legal tactics; for example, the [[Southern Poverty Law Center]] described him as "pathologically litigious."<ref name="splc_klayman">((cite web | title=About Larry Klayman | author=Southern Poverty Law Center | url=https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/individual/larry-klayman))</ref> Although he has a poor record of winning cases, his lawsuits have often resulted in the release of previously undisclosed documents that reveal new scandals.

===Sanctions and discipline imposed===
Following Klayman's behavior in a 1992 trial in California federal court, Judge [[William Duffy Keller]] barred him from his courtroom for life. Five years later, in a separate case in New York, Klayman's behavior led District Judge [[Denny Chin]] to issue a lifetime ban on the attorney practicing law before him.<ref name=Slate1998>((cite web|first=Jacob |last=Weisberg |title=Nut Watch: First Larry Klayman sued Hillary Clinton.

In 2007, Klayman received a $25,000 retainer from a [[Daytona Beach]] woman facing criminal charges who accused him of not providing legal services in return.<ref>((cite news|title=Federal marriage-for-citizenship sting nets 83 Fla. arrests|first=Travis|last=Reed|date=May 9, 2008|work=USA Today|agency=Associated Press|url=http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/nation/2008-05-09-2895645328_x.htm))</ref> The Florida Bar mediated the matter, and Klayman agreed to pay off a small portion within 90 days, but after the deadline lapsed, he was reprimanded.<ref>((cite news |title=Riptide: Larry Klayman, Conservative Wingnut Lawyer, Gets Reprimanded By Florida Bar, Is Broke |newspaper=Miami New Times |date=November 1, 2011 |url=http://blogs.miaminewtimes.com/riptide/2011/11/larry_klayman_conservative_win.php |last=Garcia-Roberts |first=Gus ))</ref><ref>((cite court|litigants=The Florida Bar v.

In 2014, Klayman agreed to be publicly censured by the [[District of Columbia Bar|D.C. Bar]].

An October 2016 opinion by a [[United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit|Ninth Circuit Court]] on Klayman's attempt to represent [[Cliven Bundy]] noted 12 cases "in which Klayman's ability to practice law in an ethical and orderly manner was called into question."<ref name="bundy-opinion">((cite court|litigants=In re Bundy|vol=840|reporter=F.3d|opinion=1034|pinpoint=1046|court=9th Cir.|date=2016|url=https://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opinions/2016/10/28/16-72275.pdf))</ref>

In 2018, Klayman unsuccessfully sued the District of Columbia Bar and some of its employees by alleging they were conspiring to disbar him. Klayman's lawsuit acknowledged three disciplinary actions then pending against him: the Judicial Watch matter already mentioned, Klayman's attempts to represent Bundy, and a complaint on his representation of a sexual-harassment plaintiff.<ref>((cite news|url=https://biglawbusiness.com/conservative-lawyer-loses-suits-to-halt-d-c-discipline-actions|title=Conservative Lawyer Loses Suits Alleging Disbarment Conspiracy|first=Martina|last=Barash|date=June 6, 2019|work=[[Bloomberg L.P.#Bloomberg Law|Bloomberg Law]]))</ref>
