Dear Judge Brabham
  I am filing contemporaneous with this letter Notice of Appeal for Mr. Bobby C. Johnson in
the above referenced matters. I was originally retained in this matter by a family member of Mr.
Johnson to represent Mr. Johnson in the disposition of the a Motion to Proceed with
Adjudication which was heard and ruled on by this Court on May 23, 2016. I obtained a signed
Notice of Appeals from Mr. Johnson on this date; the Notice of Appeal is being filed with this
letter to protect Mr. Johnson appellate rights and as my final act of representation.
 The Notice of Appeal reflects Mr. Johnson indigent status and request for appointment of
appellate counsel. I will await any additional directives of the Court to bring closure to my
representation of Mr. Johnson.

I Remain
/s/ William T. Hughey
