Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX of Roberts Markel Weinberg Butler Hailey PC ( RMWBH ) and XXXX XXXX, assisted their client and the complainant, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, in engaging in willful illegal conduct which they knew involved dishonesty, fraud, deceit, and misrepresentation. 
RMWBH, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX are in violation of the : Fair Debt Collection Practices Act 15 U.S.C. 1692e ( 2 ), ( A ), ( 4 ), ( 5 ), ( 10 ) ,1692f Texas Penal Code 37.02, 37.03 Texas Penal Code 38.12 ( E ), ( F ) Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct 1.02 ( c ), ( d ), ( e ), 3.03 ( a ) ( 1 ), ( 2, ) ( 3 ), ( 4 ), ( 5 ), ( b ), ( c ), 8.04 ( a ), ( 1 ), ( 2 ), ( 3 ), ( 9 ).

Texas Fair Debt Collection Practices Act 392.301 ( 2 ), ( 8 ) ,392.303, ( a ) ( 2 ) ,392.304 ( 8 ), ( 12 ), ( 13 ), ( 19 ) TDCPA 392.304 ( a ) ( 19 ) Texas Deceptive Trade Practices - Consumer Protection Act Mr. XXXX and Mr. XXXX filed a lawsuit under the guise of collecting unpaid assessments when they knew in advance of their filing and had proof in their possession that the defendants homeowners association assessments had been paid and were current. They willfully and unlawfully filed a fraudulent claim in bad faith. 
Mr. XXXX and Mr. XXXX did not advise their client, XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, of the fact they had no valid cause of action. Adamantly, they still refuse to tell their client and the court that they have no legitimate claim as they are fully aware that all assessments and late fees are paid. 

Instead, with their right hand, holding proof that all assessments are paid, they filed a fraudulent claim to collect phantom " unpaid assessments ''. 
With their left hand, they " pray '' the court order a foreclosure sale on Ms. XXXX 's home in order to collect these phantom " unpaid assessments ''. 

They know with 100 % certainty there are no unpaid assessments to collect. 
They know with 100 % certainty they are abusing the court. 
They know with 100 % certainty they are guilty of barratry, and abuse of process by inventing these phantom " unpaid assessments ''. 
They know with 100 % certainty they are holding my XXXX and XXXX annual assessment payment checks hostage in order to further maintain their lie of " unpaid assessments ''. 
They know with 100 % certainty that they are discriminating against me and abusing the court not to collect their phantom " unpaid assessments '' but to collect their outrageous, excessive, fraudulent fees. 
They know with 100 % certainty that they are intentionally running up the cost charging more attorney fees only to collect more attorneys fees. 
They know with 100 % certainty that there are no legal fees associated with collecting " unpaid assessments '' because there are no " unpaid assessments '' to collect. 
They know with 100 % that their claim is groundless and filed in bad faith to intimidate, discriminate and harrass. 

Intentionally, deceptively, illegally, wantonly, still, to this day, they " don't let the left hand know what the right hand is doing ''. 

Their law practice, business model, business plan and purpose statement must read : " WE EXPLOIT THE COURT FOR PROFIT ... for our own nefarious gain. '' To this day, despite ceaseless importunity, they continue to harass, discriminate, terrorize and intentionally inflict emotional distress on my son and I by bulldozing forward with this vicious, malicious, premeditated, unconscionable crime. 
With great arrogance they bulldoze forward believing and/or expecting the court to be fully deceived by or fully complicit in their criminal activity. 
I'm not sure which is worse, their expectations or their belief that makes them the most dangerous and deadly. 
Whichever it is, they must be stopped. 
Their conduct exemplifies malpractice in its most venomous form with total disrespect and disregard for the rule and profession of law. 

For their litany of crimes, I strongly urge that you hold RMWBH, XXXX XXXX, Mr. XXXX and XXXX XXXX accountable to the fullest extent of the law.
