Scott McMillan San Diego attorney, who also operates
the McMillan Academy of Law out of his small office in east San Diego by
railroad tracks. Scott McMillan has had a rough 2018, but it’s been a rough
time for Scott McMillan in his multiple failing careers. In Scott McMillan v.
Rudy Camacho 43 F.3d 1479 (9th Cir.
1994) the court REJECTED all of three arguments:
“McMillan contends the district court erred by concluding
that he failed to show the possibility of irreparable harm. We reject the
argument.” The court continued to state, “In his underlying action, McMillan
alleged that the Customs Service is attempting to prevent him from practicing his
new career as a customhouse broker by unreasonably seizing his property.”
However, the court rejected the argument of San Diego
attorney Scott McMillan:
“Here, because McMillan has failed even to allege any
hindrance which would prevent either his family members or his employers from
protecting their own interests, the district court properly concluded that
McMillan lacked standing to seek a preliminary injunction on their behalf….We
deny McMillan's motion to strike the Government's supplemental excerpts of
record. We also deny Appellee's "Motion to Dismiss due to Mootness."
There is little question Scott McMillan is a San Diegoattorney who has filed in excess of 115 appeals and writs and lost virtually
all of them. It is a horrific track record for an attorney I believe who claims
to be an appellate “expert” while the only thing Scott McMillan La Mesa seems to have is
an expertise of bringing shame and embarrassment to his clients I presume.
Many attorneys who claim to be an appellate specialist have
very high success rates. For example, one California law firm boasts that, “Overall,
our lawyers have won reversals nearly three times as often as the average
appellant. When defending judgments, we’ve prevailed eighty percent of the
time.” See law firm statistics here.
Other attorneys who claim to be experts in California
appeals have gained recognition by neutral third parties as being some of the
best. For example, another law firm who considers itself as an appellate
specialist,
“GMSR is ranked among the best appellate law firms by
organizations and publications including Reuters, Chambers and Partners USA,
California Lawyer Magazine, and the Daily Journal. Notable awards and honors include:

However, although San Diego attorney Scott McMillan claims to be a “leading”
San Diego attorney with his office in La Mesa (an east San Diego community),
the fact remains he has never been and never will gain for having the success
rate real, accomplished attorneys have. At least I do not believe he will, but
who knows.
