### I request a hearing as it appears my first letter was ignored, mi.splaced or misunderstood. The content ofmy original letter is below in Italics for yourreview and information relative to the proposed penalty. Again, it is a mute point as I am in a Chapter 11 proceeding and about to convert it to a Chapter 7 proceeding in the ensning weeks. Due to 3 upcoming trials and pieces oflitigation, I am unavaibble through about January 25,

Pervious letter sent July 10, 2014 follows: 

### I am in 

### receipt of yourproposed Civil Penalty. I disagree withyourproposedcivil pe12alty, but it 

### may be a 

### mootpoint. I did

### not act in my individual capacity relative to all of the issues raised 

### in the

### proposed civilpenalty, butagain it

### impose such apenalty.08/21/2014 05:41 4252271007 ANM7

What is even more troublesome is this appears robe continuedpolitical retribution.from my Yakima case stemming from the wrongful eviction, as determined by the Division III Court of Appeals, of Noland

### Decato, termination of the ground lease andsubsequent termination of the Through the Fenceprovision 

### o,(the lease. I believe careful examination of the evidence will show this wc1spolitically driven and those that know me know 

### I have zero tolerance for this kindof behavior. 

### I do not want to spendallot of my time, oryour time, on a dead end case ofdisroveryandpublic disclosure requests. This wrongfUl eviction and unfair businesspractices is a direct violation of Title 14, Section 16 of the FederalAviation Grants andAssurances. This seems to be a bigger fish tofry, but whogives 

### a crap about 

### a small businesspe1·son 

### as (;ollateral damage of a political agenda. PAGE 09/09

AsI stated, allof this is a moot pQint. I have been forced, by lhe above aforementioned 

### activities, 

### into apersonal Chapter 11proceeding in the United

### States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of

### Washington, Case 14-009.15-FLKJI.

!would think rises to the requirement of section 4 Title 49 USC Section 46301for reconsideration as

you want toproceed, please advise andI willprovide evidence thatsupports that the Civil Penalty is improper to impose on mepersonally. llookfonvardto a quick resolution that is the best interest of.rhe FAA andmyself, notto mention the Yakima Air Terminal banditos,08/21/2014 05:41 4252271007 ANM7
