Pursuant to TEX. R. APP. P., 10.1,10.5(b], and 38.6(d), Indigent Appellant, NATHAN

BURGESS files his Second Motion to Extend Time for Filing Appellant's Brief, and in

support of his motion he shows the following:

Appellant's appeal brief is currently due on NOVEMBER 17th, 2015.

Appellant now requests a sixty (60) day extension of time to file Appellant's brief,

making the brief due on or about January 17th, 2015, or a time permitted by the

court based on the following criteria beyond the control of appellant:

Appellant relies on thefollowing reasons to explain the need for the extension:

- Appellant's Counsel, Attorney Alan Kramer Taggart, withdrew July 16th-2014 from

the case. It has been determined that Attorney Taggart had been improperly

appointed. Attorney Taggart never filed an application in 2013 or 2014 to be added

to the master list of attorneys from which court appointments are lawfully made in

Collin County per the Fairness Act. Appellant therefore believes that Attorney
NO. 05-14-00216-CR NATHAN E BURGESS VS. THE STATE OF TEXAS
Taggart	
   was	
   professionally	
   and	
   legally	
   unqualified	
   to	
   represent,	
   as	
   Collin	
   County	
  

places	
   certain	
   requirements	
   on	
   appointed	
   attorneys	
   (e.g.,	
   continuing	
   education).	
  

Appellant	
   is	
   very	
   concerned	
   that	
   court	
   staff	
   conspired	
   to	
   his	
   detriment.	
  

Unfortunately,	
  Judge	
  Corinne	
  Mason	
  refused	
  to	
  consider	
  this	
  any	
  kind	
  of	
  violation	
  of	
  

Appellant’s	
  rights	
  and	
  no	
  mention	
  was	
  made	
  of	
  new	
  trial,	
  she	
  then	
  recused	
  herself	
  

on	
  July	
  18th,	
  2014	
  after	
  appointing	
  Mr.	
  Schultz	
  on	
  July	
  16th,	
  2014	
  from	
  the	
  bench.	
  	
  	
  

	
  

The	
   clerk’s	
  office	
  shows	
  the	
  court	
  officially	
  appointed	
   Attorney	
   William	
   Schultz	
  on	
  

July	
   22nd,	
   2014,	
   to	
   represent	
   Appellant	
   on	
   appeal	
   in	
   the	
   place	
   of	
   Attorney	
   Taggart.	
  

Appellant	
   began	
   immediately	
   on	
   July	
   16th,	
   2014	
   to	
   attempt	
   contact	
   with	
   his	
   new	
  

counsel.	
  Again,	
  Appellant’s	
  brief	
  was	
  due	
  in	
  the	
  Dallas	
  COA	
  approximately	
  the	
  next	
  

week.	
   After	
   many	
   unsuccessful	
   attempts	
   to	
   reach	
   Attorney	
   Schultz	
   at	
   his	
   own	
  

number,	
   Appellant	
   contacted	
   the	
   Office	
   of	
   Indigent	
   Defense	
   in	
   Collin	
   County.	
   The	
  

secretary	
   was	
   able	
   to	
   locate	
   Attorney	
   Schultz.	
   Appellant	
   and	
   Attorney	
   Schultz	
  

communicated	
  very	
  briefly	
  on	
  the	
  phone,	
  for	
  a	
  period	
  of	
  approximately	
  two	
  minutes.	
  

Attorney	
  Schultz	
  immediately	
  told	
  Appellant	
  that	
  he	
  was	
  busy,	
  he	
  had	
  no	
  time,	
  and	
  

there	
  would	
  be	
  no	
  physical	
  meeting	
  to	
  discuss	
  the	
  case.	
  Appellant	
  was	
  professional	
  

and	
  courteous.	
  When	
  Appellant	
  objected,	
  Attorney	
  Schultz	
  informed	
  Appellant	
  that	
  

he	
   had	
   no	
   options.	
   Appellant	
   would	
   have	
   no	
   say	
   at	
   all	
   in	
   the	
   matter	
   and	
   hung	
   up	
   the	
  

telephone.	
  Plaintiff	
  never	
  had	
   a	
   physical	
  meeting	
  with	
  Mr.	
  Schultz.	
  During	
  a	
  hearing,	
  

while	
   in	
   the	
   courtroom,	
   Attorney	
   Taggart	
   had	
   suggested	
   that	
   he	
   had	
   spoken	
   prior	
  

with	
   Attorney	
   Schultz.	
   Attorney	
   Schultz’	
   unprofessional	
   behavior	
   made	
   this	
  

apparent.	
  Appellant	
  is	
  very	
  concerned	
  for	
  his	
  liberty.	
  Appellant	
  has	
  maintained	
  his	
  

NO.

  NATHAN	
  E	
  BURGESS	
  VS.	
  THE	
  STATE	
  OF	
  TEXAS	
  
	
  
innocence	
  and	
  has	
  remained	
  fully	
  convinced	
  that	
  –	
  if	
  not	
  for	
  an	
  improper	
  conspiracy	
  

and	
   corruption	
   in	
   the	
   courtroom	
   and	
   others	
   –	
   his	
   case	
   would	
   have	
   been	
   thrown	
   out	
  

even	
   before	
   it	
   began.	
   Appellant	
   understood	
   that	
   his	
   brief	
   was	
   due	
   promptly	
   and	
   the	
  

appointed	
  attorney	
  needed	
  to	
  give	
  attention	
  to	
  the	
  case	
  so	
  that	
  he	
  could	
  understand	
  

the	
  case	
  from	
  appellant’s	
  viewpoint,	
  not	
  only	
  from	
  the	
  ambiguously	
  written	
  stories	
  

on	
   the	
   record.	
   Appellant	
   got	
   into	
   communication	
   with	
   the	
   State	
   Bar	
   of	
   Texas,	
   the	
  

Office	
  of	
  Indigent	
  Defense,	
  and	
  the	
  State	
  Commission	
  on	
  Judicial	
  Conduct.	
  Appellant	
  

also	
   attempted	
   to	
   work	
   with	
   Judge	
   Mason	
   and	
   Judge	
   Barnett	
   walker	
   to	
   force	
  

communication	
   between	
   his	
   appointed	
   counsel	
   and	
   himself.	
   Otherwise,	
   Appellant	
  

wanted	
  to	
  have	
  another	
  attorney	
  who	
  would	
  properly	
  advocate	
  for	
  him,	
  as	
  required	
  

by	
  the	
  State	
  Bar	
  of	
  Texas	
  and	
  the	
  Office	
  of	
  Indigent	
  Defense	
  in	
  Collin	
  County	
  via	
  the	
  

Fairness	
  Act.	
  Appellant	
  believed	
  that	
  he	
  was	
  and	
  still	
  is	
  due	
  a	
  new	
  trial,	
  due	
  to	
  the	
  

misconduct	
   among	
   the	
   court	
   staff	
   and	
   legal	
   representation	
   by	
   an	
   attorney	
  

unqualified	
   for	
   appointment	
   in	
   2012,	
   2013	
   and	
   2014,	
   by	
   the	
   Office	
   of	
   Indigent	
  

Defense	
   according	
   to	
   the	
   indigent	
   coordinator.	
   However,	
   Appellant	
   does	
   not	
   know	
  

how	
   to	
   effect	
   this	
   outcome.	
   At	
   this	
   point,	
   Attorney	
   Schultz	
   has	
   manifested	
   his	
  

unwillingness	
   and	
   inability	
   to	
   be	
   of	
   any	
   great	
   help,	
   so	
   Appellant	
   is	
   now	
   busy	
  

concerning	
  himself	
  with	
  his	
  own	
  pursuit	
  of	
  justice.	
  

	
  

Appellant	
   sought	
   to	
   recuse	
   the	
   Appellant	
   Counsel	
   on	
   several	
   occasions,	
   both	
   by	
  

submitting	
  DISMISS	
  AND	
  SUBSTITUTION	
  OF	
  COUNSEL	
  requests	
  to	
  the	
  Collin	
  County	
  

Court	
   at	
   Law	
   and	
   The	
   COA	
   in	
   Dallas,	
   without	
   success;	
   he	
   was	
   told	
   he	
   could	
   not	
   have

hybrid	
   representation	
   and	
   would	
   have	
   to	
   keep	
   the	
   court	
   appointed	
   attorney.	
  

Consequently,	
  Appellant	
  had	
  to	
  keep	
  Mr.	
  Schultz	
  until	
  now.	
  	
  

	
  

Currently,	
  Appellant	
  has	
  sought	
  since	
  September	
  21st,	
  2015	
  to	
  dismiss	
  the	
  attorney,	
  

Mr.	
  Schultz.	
  He	
  has	
  had	
  to	
  even	
  threaten	
  a	
  lawsuit	
  to	
  inspire	
  Mr.	
  Schultz	
  to	
  send	
  him	
  

the	
   file	
   from	
   which	
   he	
   wrote	
   the	
   Appellant	
   brief,	
   but	
   to	
   date,	
   Appellant	
   has	
   only	
  

received	
  approximately	
  18	
  pages	
  from	
  the	
  attorney.	
  The	
  18	
  pages	
  include	
  the	
  COA	
  

Memorandum,	
   and	
   a	
   larger	
   quantity	
   of	
   pages	
   from	
   a	
   random	
   site	
   with	
   some	
   print	
  

out	
   of	
   rules	
   and	
   regulations	
   of	
   sorts.	
   Appellant	
   believes	
   he	
   has	
   a	
   right	
   to	
   use	
   he	
  

complete	
  file	
  to	
  write	
  his	
  Appeal	
  Brief	
  and	
  it	
  appears	
  to	
  Appellant	
  that	
  his	
  ex	
  court	
  

appointed	
   attorney	
   is	
   seeking	
   to	
   do	
   damage	
   to	
   Appellant’s	
   chances	
   of	
   writing	
   a	
  

successful	
   and	
   winning	
   appeal	
   brief.	
   He	
   has	
   been	
   contacted	
   repeatedly	
   requesting	
  

these	
  files	
  and	
  has	
  said	
  he	
  has	
  no	
  files	
  to	
  transfer.	
  Appellant	
  wants	
  to	
  know	
  which	
  

files	
  he	
  used	
  to	
  write	
  the	
  appeal	
  brief;	
  and	
  can	
  not	
  imagine	
  how	
  the	
  attorney	
  could	
  

have	
   known	
   the	
   extents	
   of	
   law	
   that	
   might	
   be	
   applicable	
   as	
   relating	
   to	
   the	
  

constitutional	
   issues	
   involved	
   in	
   his	
   case,	
   as	
   well	
   as	
   details	
   that	
   occurred	
   that	
   are	
   of	
  

major	
   importance	
   to	
   the	
   truth	
   of	
   the	
   testimony	
   given	
   during	
   testimony	
   and	
   cross	
  

examination	
  without	
  a	
  record	
  to	
  work.	
  	
  

	
  

Appellant	
  will	
  not	
  delve	
  into	
  the	
  labyrinth	
  of	
  personal	
  injuries	
  that	
  this	
  attorney	
  has	
  

caused	
   Appellant,	
   however,	
   he	
   will	
   simply	
   say,	
   he	
   has	
   not	
   been	
   represented	
   in	
   a	
  

professional	
   manner	
   worthy	
   of	
   a	
   career	
   attorney.	
   	
   For	
   example,	
   the	
   case	
   involves	
  

Mens	
  Rea,	
  Intentionally,	
  Willingly,	
  Knowingly,	
  which	
  was	
  not,	
  required

the	
   prosecution,	
   however,	
   it	
   was	
   added,	
   yet	
   not	
   proven	
   by	
   the	
   prosecution	
   during	
  

trial,	
   nor	
   considered	
   in	
   the	
   COA	
   opinion,	
   unless	
   that	
   is	
   the	
   reason	
   for	
   the	
   lack	
   of	
  

evidence	
   to	
   convict	
   in	
   the	
   Conclusions	
   of	
   law	
   in	
   the	
   next	
   to	
   last	
   paragraph	
   of	
   the	
  

memorandum	
   opinion,	
   however,	
   the	
   appointed	
   attorney	
   did	
   not	
   challenge	
   mens	
   rea	
  

in	
  his	
  appeal	
  brief.	
  He	
  attorney	
  now	
  will	
  not	
  turn	
  over	
  the	
  file	
  so	
  Appellant	
  can	
  have	
  

a	
   fair	
   chance	
   at	
   writing	
   his	
   appeal	
   brief	
   to	
   challenge	
   the	
   prosecution	
  on	
  this	
  issue.	
  

Obviously,	
  the	
  Appointed	
  Attorney	
  is	
  doing	
  what	
  he	
  can,	
  intentionally	
  or	
  negligently,	
  	
  

to	
   hinder	
   Appellant’s	
   success.	
   He	
   was	
   on	
   file	
   as	
   representing	
   attorney	
   during	
  

plenary	
  power	
  of	
  COA,	
  yet	
  did	
  nothing	
  to	
  move	
  the	
  court	
  to	
  reconsider,	
  he	
  only	
  sat	
  

silently,	
   and	
   now	
   refuses	
   to	
   withdraw	
   as	
   counsel,	
   seemingly	
   holding	
   Appellant	
  

hostage	
   for	
   some	
   unknown	
   reason,	
   or	
   simply	
   to	
   try	
   to	
   control	
   and	
   harass	
   the	
  

appellant.	
  	
  

	
  

The	
   appointed	
   attorney	
   has	
   also	
   been	
   made	
   aware	
   that	
   the	
   COA	
   Dallas,	
   has	
   made	
  

Appellant	
  aware	
  that	
  he	
  has	
  not	
  formally	
  withdrawn	
  from	
  the	
  case,	
  even	
  though	
  he	
  

has	
   no	
   intention	
   of	
   filing	
   any	
   documents	
   with	
   the	
   court,	
   and	
   Appellant	
   has	
   “Fired”	
  

the	
  Attorney	
  written	
  clearly	
  in	
  an	
  email,	
  and	
  consistently	
  told	
  the	
  attorney	
  he	
  does	
  

not	
  want	
  his	
  representation	
  past	
  his	
  unsuccessful	
  attempt	
  at	
  the	
  COA	
  appeal	
  brief.	
  

Even	
   the	
   COA	
   found	
   there	
   was	
   not	
   sufficient	
   evidence	
   to	
   convict	
   the	
   Appellant	
   in	
  

their	
  conclusion	
  of	
  law,	
  however,	
  affirmed	
  the	
  County	
  decision.	
  	
  So,	
  by	
  not

along

  necessary;

  not	
  withdrawing	
  from

William	
   Schultz.	
   	
   Appellant	
   will	
   need	
   time	
   to	
   ascertain	
   these	
   files,	
   write	
   his	
   brief,	
  

therefore,	
   he	
   is	
   requesting	
   from	
   the	
   court	
   to	
   not	
   be	
   placed	
   in	
   a	
   position	
   of	
   having	
   to	
  

attempt	
   to	
   write	
   his	
   appeal	
   without	
   all	
   available	
   case	
   files,	
   and	
   adequate	
   time	
   to	
  

write	
  his	
  brief.	
  	
  

	
  

Also,	
  the	
  attorney	
  did	
  not	
  request	
  the	
  court	
  reporters	
  to	
  provide	
  court	
  transcripts	
  of	
  

all	
   court	
   hearings,	
   or	
   the	
   reporters	
   have	
   not	
   followed	
   such	
   requests	
   by	
   filing	
   the	
  

original	
  copies	
  of	
  all	
  files	
  in	
  this	
  instant	
  criminal	
  case	
  with	
  the	
  County	
  Court	
  at	
  Law	
  

Clerks	
  Office	
  in	
  a	
  timely	
  manner,	
  based	
  on	
  the	
  fact	
  that	
  this	
  case	
  has	
  now	
  passed	
  3	
  

years	
  old	
  as	
  of	
  July	
  13th,	
  2015.	
  Appellant	
  has	
  left	
  voice	
  messages	
  and	
  afterward	
  he	
  

has	
   sent	
   follow-­‐up	
   notices	
   in	
   email	
   form	
   to	
   most	
   all	
   the	
   court	
   reporters	
   that	
   have	
  

been	
   associated	
   with	
   this	
   case,	
   and	
   have	
   only	
   received	
   and	
   answer	
   from	
   one	
  

reporter,	
   but	
   even	
   she	
   was	
   not	
   obliged	
   to	
   provide	
   these	
   documents	
   without	
  

considerable	
   legwork	
   from	
   Appellant.	
   Appellant	
   will	
   need	
   time	
   to	
   get	
   all	
   these	
  

reporters	
   records	
   which	
   were	
   not	
   asked	
   for	
   and	
   provided	
   for	
   which	
   should	
   have	
  

been	
  part	
  of	
  the	
  attorney’s	
  record,	
  or	
  possibly,	
  they	
  simply	
  were	
  not	
  provided	
  by	
  the	
  

associated	
  court	
  reporters	
  of	
  this	
  case.	
  Plaintiff	
  would	
  not	
  be	
  in	
  this	
  situation	
  if	
  the	
  

attorney	
   would	
   have	
   simply	
   done	
   his	
   job,	
   then	
   the	
   file	
   would	
   be	
   complete	
   and	
   when	
  

presented	
   to	
   Appellant	
   upon	
   completion	
   of	
   the	
   attorney’s	
   work,	
   Appellant	
   would	
  

have	
  already	
  received	
  the	
  complete	
  file	
  and	
  he	
  would	
  have	
  been	
  ready	
  to	
  begin

  to	
  be

Appellant	
   has

   Also,	
   the	
   three

(withdrawals),	
   of	
   the	
   court	
   appointed	
   attorneys	
   have	
   valuable	
   information	
   critical	
  

to	
   Appellant’s

   Appellant	
   desires	
   all

   to

   to	
   the

does	
  not	
  believe

  until	
  all	
  the

  These	
  are	
  not

  Appellant

with	
  the

   Even	
   the

   Mr.	
  

Taggart	
   has	
   made	
   Appellant	
   aware	
   that	
   he	
   still	
   has	
   retained	
   case	
   records	
   and	
   has	
  

those	
   files	
   in	
   his

   (Mr.

  Mr.

Thomas Mullins,

Good Day Sir.

Nathan Burgess requests copies of the transcripts from all hearings that you were responsible for in his case cited as STATE OF TEXAS V.
NATHAN EARL BURGESS, CASE NO. 001-86625-2012.

These items should have all been requested by the court appointed attorneys, Dale Rose, Stapleton, Alan Taggart, or William Schultz. I know
you are well familiar with these Court Appointed Attorneys, (Taggart was not qualified as Court appoint attorney).

Please provide these documents to the Colin County At Law Clerks Office in the original form.

I was approved as indigent with appoint attorney so tis should be without costs to me personally.

I am sure that the Court of Appeals of Teas In Austin Texas will also be requiring these documents as well, so I would appreciate as
expeditious service as possible.

The appeal is due November 17th, 2015 or the court permits extension.

Please advise as to when you can these documents available that were not provided in the Clerks Record. I believe the rule is that the original
must be filed with the Clerks Office before otherwise distributing.

Thank you Sir,

I am sure you have all the records as to what files need to be submitted; I am requesting any and al files related to the case including Attorney
Dismissals and substitutions and Or withdrawals; specifically relating to attorneys Rose, Stapleton, and Taggart… I realize this is a huge file
and may take you a time to provide, but please advise as to exact time that I can request extension of the Court of Appeals.

Thank you,

Nathan Burgess
Appellant
972-971-8361

PS If any questions or if you care to advise you can contact me via email or phone as provided. Thank you Sir...

Please address any future correspondence, if any, to work e-mails and phone numbers. In
response to your voice messages and e-mails, please be advised of the following:
    1. Pursuant to Tex.R.App.P 34.6(b)(1), the court reporter needs a request in writing and
         Designation of Record to prepare the Reporter’s Record; and
    2. Pursuant to Tex.R.App.P 35.3(a)(2) and (b)(3), the court reporter must be contacted for
         fee arrangements to be made for the preparation of the Reporter’s Record or a
         presumption of indigence met under Tex.R.App P 20.2.
Since your appellate record has been completed and under Tex.R.App.P 34.6(b)(1) all hearings
requested have been filed with the Fifth Court of Appeals, there is no pending authorization to
transcribe and/or file either pre or post undesignated hearings upon application made after the
completion of the appellate process. Further, all Affidavits of Payment that were approved by the
County have been fulfilled. There will not be further authorization until there are actionable
proceedings.

In response to your statement that an Original Reporter’s Record should be filed under law with
the clerk, pursuant to Tex.R.App. P 34.5(h), a Certified Copy of the Reporter’s Record must be
filed with the clerk only in 1) criminal cases 2) cases on appeal 3) matching the Reporter’s Record
filed through TAMES as sent to the Court of Appeals. All of the authorized and designated
records that were to be included in your appellate record have been timely filed and are available
for you to check out through the clerk. We are unable to accept a new Designation of Record on
your appeal at this time until there is pending proceedings in a higher court. Your appeal is
currently dispositive in the Fifth Court of Appeals.

Should you need to request Certified Copies of either untranscribed or previously transcribed
Reporter’s Records, you may do so by 1) sending a request in writing describing the dates and
hearings you would like a transcript of 2) and making direct fee arrangements to pay for such
transcripts yourself.

Ms Kopp,

Thank you for your response,

I am in communications with the JVCC Compliance Office and am aware of the rules.

Yes, I am still without costs and would be glad to file whatever paperwork you need to get paid by the arresting county.

The case is not in the 5th COA but Court of Appeals of Texas, so yes all transcriptions are necessary on appeal.

I was informed to ask you for the transcripts and to contact the Court if necessary to attain these files for the appeal.

It appears as if you are a lawyer as well as a court reporter.

Please let me know what document you need to provide these documents.

Yes, the rules are clear about criminal trials and case hearings belong in the County Clerks Record, so I am asking you to make the original
copy available to the Clerk immediately or as soon as possible.

Please give me an estimate of the time it can all be provided.

The current date set before the Court of Appeals of Texas id November 17th, 2015l however I will seek an extension of time to file based on
my attorney’s incompetent behavior. He should have known the files were needed but did not do his duty owed to me as a client.

Please let me know what I need to do, what documents you have that have not been transcribed and filed with he clerks record.

I would like everything outstanding transcribed with original to be filed with clerk and additional provided to me for the appeal.

Thank you

Nathan Burgess
972-971-8361

PS I have no other email for you and was given this emil via the JVCC Compliance Office. If you prefer another email, you will need to provide
it. Otherwise I will use the one you have provided with your license to practice as a court reporter.

Also, I am not asking for you to authorize any additional work by you, it isn’t your job to authorize anything, so I am not seeking your
authorization. I will be seeking the Court of Appeals order to do so if necessary.

So if you will just simply make the copies available to the clerks office as requested in the original form according to law I’d appreciate it very
much. Then we can work on getting me a copy to write my appeal due for in 10 days.

Please let me know if you have questions or concerns…

 I am sending you a copy of this file so that you understand my intent to file, for good cause, motion to stay and writ of
 mandamus immediately, unless my legal demand for the safe return of my complete case files from my appointed
 attorneys is respected upon receipt by them of my demand.

 I do want to be clear, Mr. Taggart has forwarded some files after he withdrew from the case, however, he was
 ordered to turn over the complete case files to Mr Schultz by Judge Corinne Mason. Mr. Schultz has been requested
 repeatedly to turn over the file, which under threat of a lawsuit, he sent a limited file consisting if the court decision to
 affirm conviction and a print out of a couple laws on dumping from some website.

 I have requested the complete file and have not received but about 20 pages from Mr Schultz, since I do not have a
 case file to work from I can not file an appeal timely and have no option but to motion the court for a stay until
 mandamus review can be heard and decision made as to the proprietary interest of the files made by the court.

 I am sorry for the delay, I hope you will not challenge the stay based on good cause.

 Dear Sirs, (Attorney’s Taggart and Schultz)

 Please contact me immediately before I must file Writ of Mandamus with the Texas Criminal Court of Appeals.
Please contact me immediately before I must file Writ of Mandamus with the Texas Criminal Court of Appeals.

There are many issues when trying to file an appeal such as my case.

It is a very difficult situation to represent yourself in a JP Court of Law; the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals is not a
JP Court.

I am attaching a few screen shots to support my need for Motion to Stay and Mandamus in my case.

I have repeatedly asked Mr Schultz for my case file. I have followed with Mr Taggart asking for the information that
he has forwarded to Mr Schultz under court order.

I have received no, or limited response from you both as pertaining to the work product documents that were used to
represent my case as well as, to appeal the wrongful conviction; therefore I seek Writ protection from my appointed
counselors with cause for not relinquishing my file upon request.

I will give you gentlemen until midnight Oct 23rd, 2015 to respond by making arrangements to turn over my personal
property without retaining a single file in your possession. I am requesting the full and complete file in both of your
possession and ask you to not maintain a single article of the same in your possession and / or control. I am asking
you to cease and desist from communicating further about my case information with any person. I hold you to
confidentiality as Rules of Professional Conduct without limitation. I also hold you both to liability to personal injury
based on your lack of completing this request within the time frame given to reply.

You have both been given a responsibility and I require full cooperation and timely carrying out of your fiduciary
duties owed to me as my appointed attorneys.

I also am requesting both of your complete bar information and certificates and qualifications for representing me as
a court appointed attorney under the Texas Fairness Act. If one or neither of you were not a qualified Court
Appointed Attorney in Collin County to represent me, I am making a demand upon you to disclose such information
and lack of discretion to me upon receipt of this email. Please do so immediately, any withholding of this information
will be considered a breach of your fiduciary duty owed me personally due to your representation in my case, or

attorneys are not relevant to your PDR.

I do want to be clear, Mr. Taggart has forwarded some files after he withdrew from the case, however, he was ordered to turn over the
complete case files to Mr Schultz by Judge Corinne Mason. Mr. Schultz has been requested repeatedly to turn over the file, which under threat
of a lawsuit, he sent a limited file consisting if the court decision to affirm conviction and a print out of a couple laws on dumping from some
website.

I have requested the complete file and have not received but about 20 pages from Mr Schultz, since I do not have a case file to work from I
can not file an appeal timely and have no option but to motion the court for a stay until mandamus review can be heard and decision made as

I am sorry for the delay, I hope you will not challenge the stay based on good cause.

                    Date: September 16, 2012 at 1:45:17 PM CDT

                    Mr Attorney General and Staff,

                    Please allow me to introduce myself. First of all I am a Christian, saved in
                    1977 in Ft Worth Texas at Northside Assembly of God Church. The
                    experience radically changed my life. I immediately stated attending
                    church as often as the doors were opened. I had realized that I was a
                    sinner that had not known about the right way to live my life since I did
                    not understand my need of a savior. I immediately stopped drinking and
                    running around and started a new life of Christian service. I wish I had
                    been able to live completely without sin as the bible encourages us to do,
                    but I did try my best to live to the best possible standards of my church
                    and the community. I have done my best to live by those standards to
                    this day, of course, not without personal failures, but it is still the way I
                    live and have taught my children to live.

                    Unfortunately, I lost my wife of 20 years in 2000, so I have raised my
                    three children, Drew, Tiffany and Shaun who range from 23 to 27 years
                    old, all students and exceptional citizens. I have done my best to teach
                    them to believe in law and order, however, these current events are
                    stressing us to the point of doubt as to the accuracy of my teachings; the
                    police have been abusive and so has the court system.

                    We are currently in an appeals process for a 24 hour notice to vacate
                    which is not legal in Texas, but we have been evicted, at least my kids
                    have from a home in Murphy Texas, yet I was not allowed to participate,
                    yet publically, I have been trashed for being a squatter, etc, but have not
                    been allowed to participate in the eviction process, but have also been
                    accused as having, Naked possession or just plain trespassing. All of the
                    names are pure fabrications of the truth. My children had a written
                    contract with the Castle keeper Inc, and I was invited by my son, Shaun,
                    to stay at the home, and I was at the home from the day of lease until
                    July 11, when we were all illegally disenfranchised by Judge Payton and
                    The Collin County Constables office. On the 13th, of July, I was arrested by
                    Murphy Police, after Officer Hermes, a seargeant with the MPd, under
                    threat of arrest, ordered me onto the property to remove items which

                                                                                                          Page 1 of 4
letter to attorney general                                                                          11/9/15, 10:26 AM

                    partially touched the street or sidewalk. I under duress and the
                    “Emergency Doctrine” disregarded my own items, immediately followed
                    orders and rapidly removed the items from the curb and sidewalk, (only
                    one item was on the sidewalk). I mistakenly believed that a 200 lb, heat
                    treated, display shelf piece would not break when I pushed it, but it did
                    indeed break, at a thousand dollar loss to myself. I continued removing
                    the other items from the area as ordered by hermes. He told me as I was
                    arrested for breaking the glass, illegal dumping: then proceeded to
                    intimidate my son, trying to arrest him as well. He charged me with illegal
                    dumping and disorderly conduct, blocking the street; however it has since
                    been dismissed and a new charge, (unreasonable noise) has been added.
                    On Sept 4th, 2012, another charge has been added and sent to the judge
                    for “PC”, the charge, Criminal Mischievous, for knowingly and intentionally
                    destroying, “door”. I deny all charges and under duress and unlawful
                    coercion, my civil rights were violated by hermes, when he forced me
                    under threat of arrest to return to the property, then did not like my
                    performance, arrested me. I was told we had 10 minutes to get it done, I
                    then told the officer to do whatever he wanted with the items, but was
                    forced to do the work against my will, then arrested. I claim false arrest
                    and malicious prosecution and ask the attorney general office to
                    investigate these charges thoroughly, as you do have access to the videos
                    from April to July 13th, 2012, and all my words can be validated for
                    accuracy.

                    I was not allowed to be a defendant; I was not on the property when the
                    officer told me to move the items; I told the officer to do as he wished
                    with the items, after he told me a mover was coming in 10 minutes to
                    remove the items; I was told to go back on the property to remove the
                    items from sidewalk and street under penalty of arrest if I refused to
                    comply; then arrested because I ignorantly broke I shelving piece of my
                    own family possession when I tried to move it incorrectly.

                    I am currently in an appeals process, which has been going on before any
                    criminal allegations have been made against me, so therefore the papers
                    are needed for evidence in the civil suit, not criminal at this time. Also, I
                    am not violent, never have been, never will be. Lies have been thrown at
                    me from every direction, and if you find any record of violence from me
                    from any source please make me aware of it and I will bring this to the
                    attention of any attorney that may be willing to take my case in the future.
                    At this point, I have no attorney, have not filed any lawsuits and not made

                    any decisions about lawsuits.

                    As far as, A “Bomb” comment being made toward the city of “Murphy”; I
                    have sent that information to the FBI, Texas Rangers, ETC, and asked
                    them to investigate it. I was innocently speaking of a civil strategy with the
                    Dallas Morning News reporter, and nothing to do with a device that would
                    harm anyone at all; pure fabrication and lies, as a matter of fact, no
                    mention of the city of Murphy had been made at all up until July 13th,
                    when I was arrested, so therefore, the comment made was well before
                    that date while we were talking of only civil litigation. The “bomb” in
                    question, was concerning 12 months of unpaid fees owed to the
                    defendants by the Plaintiff in the case that could add up to over $400,000
                    based on his denial of contractual claims in the eviction case. The contract
                    was for employment, Subcontractor work and no fees have been paid;
                    salaries, hourly wages etc. So the “bomb” cited by Mr Farley of the DMN,
                     was purely a “Money Bomb” of counterclaims for the trial against the
                    defendant. All this was done via text messaging from my phone so it can
                    all be verified, and undoubtedly proven that these claims of threats against
                    the City of Murphy or it’s employees are false and malicious and designed
                    to deceive and to bring unfair advantage to the city’s case by false
                    representations of the truth.

                    The preceding information is not the work of a trained, “lying lawyer”, just
                    a Texas Citizen that you hold the videos and audio to prove my innocence
                    and the disingenuousness of the murphy Police and their reports that I
                    was throwing things onto the property from the truck when they arrived
                    on the scene, which the videos show I was sitting under a shade tree with
                    my kid and his friends when they arrived 6 vehicle strong, blocking the
                    road at both ends, driving like crazy persons back and forth in front of the
                    property, on a quiet residential street, until they stopped and Hermes
                    started his military type crackdown of a peaceful setting of an evicted
                    family trying their best under limited resources to remove their items from
                    the property where the constable’s office and Castle keepers unlawfully
                    placed all the items and did not place them in a place off of the property
                    or in a safe storage facility as the writ of possession ordered but left them
                    scattered on the entire square footage of the front lawn of the home and
                    the city gave us until a certain time to remove the items which we were
                    communicating with the City Code department that Had just come by and
                    said we were doing a good job and they would return with police to work
                    something out since it looked like we were running out of time. We never
                    expected such a show of violent force as we received at the hand of

                                                                                                           Page 3 of 4

                    hermes and his officers. Strictly unconstitutional all around.

                    Hermes them proceeded to make treats about terrorism and stalking
                    charges against my son. Please research this case, it was highly visible in
                    the media and we were made to be Squatters, but in reality we are still
                    fighting a 24 hour notice to vacate. The actions of the court and police
                    department are illegal in our estimations. Please investigate the case and
                    you will see it is over an illegal notice to vacate and nothing else,
                    regardless of media attraction and misrepresentations and outright lies.

                    PS Murphy City attorney’s have been wrongfully involved in this civil case,
                    gone crazy now, since June 6th, 2012, well before any police or criminal
                    allegations. She even told the plaintiff attorney, according to statements
                    made by plaintiff attorney during pretrial, that “you get rid of the younger
                    Burgess’s and Ill get rid of him, meaning myself”. Where were these kind
                    of statements reasonable due to the fact we were in court, under an
                    eviction hearing, and no judgments of any kind had yet been made by the
                    JP Judge? Not legal procedure, unreasonable and unconstitutional.

                    Thank you
