Griffin loses most trusted ally and fails to tell anyone

Jorge Hevia III, a 7=4 and the Praemonstrator Ordinis one of the three Chiefs in David Griffin’s Golden Dawn Order in happier daze. Sorry days.

 

The Golden Dawn Community is reeling after the news that the bloke whose job it was to provide the Rosicrucian Order of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn in the Outer with its teaching, Jorge Hevia III has died.

We say reeling because the news is a complete surprise.  According to the Miami Herald   Hevia died on December 10 2013 and yet no one in Griffin’s order acknowledged the death of one of its most publically identifiable leaders.  One would think that all those years of loyal service would amount to a few words on David Griffin’s blog, but apparently not. In fact, we are still not sure how he died.

To put this lack of information into perspective, Jorge Hevia III was extremely important to Griffin and his Order. Hevia was a 7=4 and the  Praemonstrator Ordinis which means he was expected to provide teaching.  In other orders it would be Hevia who provided the Rosicrucian Order of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn in the Outer with the advanced Golden Dawn teaching. Most of the papers which circulate amongst that Order with his name on it have to be the finest example of a knowledgeable Golden Dawn adept. We have asked our sources in the order if any papers or teaching came from Hevia but they have not seen any. We guess they were too high level to be seen by the riff-raff.

It was not Hevia’s intense knowledge of magic and his skills as a teacher which made him famous. Hevia was David Griffin’s free lawyer who enabled the order to threaten multiple court cases against other members of the Golden Dawn community. A free lawyer gave Griffin meant that other members of the Golden Dawn would either have to give in or face huge legal costs. For example, the court case for the control of the Golden Dawn trademark cost Chic Cicero more than $140,000 to fight and nearly bankrupted him.

Fortunately, Hevia was not actually a trademark lawyer and found himself out of his depth on numerous occasions. The court records we have seen are full of numerous comedy references. One of our favourites is when one of the Judges complained that Jorge was smoking so much when he prepared the court documents that they actually stank and staff would not handle them.

After the court ordered a trademark agreement between Griffin and Cicero, it was Hevia who was ordered, we assume by Griffin, to get it overturned. He did this by sending to the court, on a regular basis, letters of complaint about how the agreement was being violated, which had to be answered by Cicero’s lawyer who charged for his services.  – at $100 a pop. If you send enough of these a week, you can really drain your opponent’s bank account. Our source tells us that there were a lot of complaints with Jorge’s signature on them which were essentially ignored by the court but cost Chic money. 

Hevia’s last work was carried out by his office, which was essentially giving up in a trademark case against AMORC .This must have been signed off by his office after his death. In it, the Golden Dawn trademark wars, which were the hallmark of Hevia’s occult legacy, are finally over.  We are told that it means that Griffin’s website where he has that stupid registered trademark symbol over everything is probably illegal. We guess he does not have a trusted free lawyer to tell him to take it down.
