DAVID DE LEON                             §   BELL COUNTY, TEXAS

                       APPELLANT'S BRIEF

                    STATEMENT OF ISSUES FOR REVIEW

      On the 24th of September, 2013, the case of Cherie D. De Leon and

David De Leon was heard and the following issues are issues that need to be

reviewed and corrected for the record:

   A. The percentage of Military Retirement Pay;
   B. Ordering Respondent to make Cherie D. De Leon, ex-wife as his
Beneficiary;
   C. Funds from Materials Transportation Company (MTC) Employees

Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP);

   D. The Firearms that are/were registered under Respondent's name with a

List of the Firearms attached;

   E. Sworn Affidavits to other Firearms/weapons;

   F. A formula for Retirement Pay was adapted by the Department of

Defense and/or the Department of Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) to

calculate the amount of percentage to do the following steps:
(1).          In Respondent's case, you would take 20 years of active Military

              Duty and you convert it into months which are 240 months.

(2).          You take that the number of years you were married while on

              active duty; in the Respondent's case, it was 4 and Vi years which

              are 54 months.

(3).          You divide the 240 months of active duty by the number of

              months married while on active duty - 240 divided by 54

(4).          You then take the disposable income and you multiply by the

              percentage - 917.82 x 4.44% equals to $40.75.

(5).          According to the formula that the Department of Finance and

              Accounting Service (DFAS), it shows that for Petitioner, Cheri

              D. De Leon, my ex-wife is entitled to $40.75. I do not know

              where Petitioner's attorney came up with the 11.25%.        I am

              attaching a copy ofthe formula DFAS uses and my pay stubs;

   G. Ordering Respondent to make Petitioner, my ex-wife by Beneficiary

       upon my death for my Retirement Pay; I cannot find any law that reads

       that I am supposed to do this and whether what Petitioner's attorney did

       is legal or not;
H. Disposition of funds from an account that I have never put money into

   or ever taken any out. These funds are put their for their employees that

   are 100% vested. It is the ESOP plan. She should be entitled to any of

   these funds since I never put any money into it and is considered a gift;

   and

I. The following pertain to Firearms that are not registered with the

   Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (A.T.F.) but they are also registered

   with the Federal Government at Fort Hood, Texas with the Military

   Police.   These weapons need to be recovered and returned to

   Respondent, David De Leon. A List ofthe weapons is attached.

                              Conclusion

   Respondent-Appellant, David De Leon respectfully asks this

   Honorable Court to review the brief and attachments and consider

   reversing those sections included in this brief.
