ALAN GUARD AS CITY MANAGER, FIT IF YOU NEED A YES MAN
I am taking a break from working on my suit against the city.
First let's parse John Cowens meaningless words.
"He understands where the City is today, where we are headed, and what needs to be done. We must remain focused on responsible growth, excellent public service, and meeting the needs of our residents, and he understands those priorities firsthand.”
What needs to be done according to John Cowen is, the city should not enforce code violations leaving residents with no remedy when a contractor damages their home.
This according to John Cowen will promote excellent public service, while meeting the needs of the residents of Brownsville."
John Cowen wanted a weak city manager who will go along with his lies, disinformation and the settling of personal scores.
AFTER CONSULTATION WITH THE TEXAS ETHICS COMMISSION, I WILL FILE A FORMAL COMPLAINT AGAINST ALAN GUARD.
Consultation with the Texas Ethics Commission does not mean they are telling me anyone was done anything wrong. It is merely to make sure how I go about the filing of the complaint, but with no reference as to the validity of my complaint.
Understand according to counsel for Omar Ochoa, Alan Guard has the ability to settle my claim without consultation with the city commission. Alan Guard has refused to authorize settlement because it would displease John Cowen. Alan Guard sacrificed the reputation of the city and his own name to keep John Cowen happy so he could secure the position of city manager.
ALAN GUARD AND IN FACT JOHN COWEN ARE BEING NAMED IN AN ADA VIOLATION
In October 2025, Judge Woerner signed an order accommodating my hearing impairment by not allowing for Zoom hearings. I cannot hear via Zoom. The order is not disputed.
On the 15th of June we had a hearing. Andrew Schafer appeared for FTL Finance, accused of financial fraud by giving finance money to Texas Lone Star with whom I had no contract. Texas Lone Star took the money and then abandoned the project before they were finished. I am seeking criminal indictment of both for financial fraud, and wire fraud.
Andrew Schafer in an ex parte communication sought to appear via Zoom. Judge Terrell granted the ex parte request. He will now face the Commission on Judicial Conduct for hearing from FTL in an ex parte communication. I secured an ethics violation against a Hidalgo County judge for similar ex parte communications.
I learned of the ex parte order once we appeared in court. I begged the court to stay the proceedings on jurisdiction issues so I could go back to the Texas Supreme Court. I can say in less than a handful of cases has a trial judge refused to defer to the Texas Supreme Court. I personally thought Judge Terrell was very nice, but I understand his style. He allows counsel to lie to him under the guise of allowing everyone to create a record, he will not actually consider. Being nice to the parties is a form of gaslighting. I saw through it and tried to find a solution but could not. i knew it was hopeless when Judge Terrell chalked up Judge Woerner's wrongful orders setting hearing by submission by saying "sometimes judges just get things wrong." Well nope. When the ruling is clearly wrong, the US Supreme Court and Texas Court of Criminal Appeals both allow for recusal as a matter of law.
THE ADA ISSUE
I could not hear Andrew Schafer through his Zoom appearance. At least once, but maybe twice I heard him lie to the court. It was a verifiable lie. The Texas Supreme Court docket sheet speaks the truth. Judge Terrell did not care he was being lied to his face.
Counsel for Texas Lone Star lied when he told Judge Terrell I filed a Motion to Recuse Judge McDonald. It never happened and the record clearly shows Judge McDonald recused himself over my objection. Judge Terrell just smiled and showed no concern again he was being lied to his face.
When a judge just smiles after being told he has been lied to his face, he is dangerous to the administration of justice. He has an ethical duty to report both to the State Bar but will not.
CITY MANAGER ALAN GUARD REMAINS SILENT AFTER HEATHER SCOTT ASKS JUDGE TERRELL TO SIGN AN ORDER WHICH VIOLATES THE ADA ACCOMMODATION, WHICH INCORPORATES PLEADINGS FILED BY THE CITY WELL AFTER THE HEARING WAS COMMENCED, AND WHICH CLEARLY DOES NOT REFLECT THE DOCKET ENTRY MADE BY JUDGE TERRELL
On his first day on the job, we know full well why John Cowen wanted Alan Guard as the city manager.
If Guard thinks he is going to get away with violating my rights under an ADA Accommodation Order, he is dilutional.
Heather Scott for Omar Ochoa says she is Unopposed to enforcement of the ADA Accommodation. She lies because she thinks I am stupid.
This is how Heather Scott works. She cannot compete with me on the law, so she gets desperately unethical.
Imagine this: Heather Scott is holding a gun to the heads of the people yelling " I'm defending you; I am defending you."
Well it does not work that way: saying "I am defending you" does not overcome the fact you are in fact holding a gun to the heads of the people.
In this case while saying she is unopposed to enforcement of the ADA Order, she has signed off on a falsified order concerning the June 15th hearing, which violates the ADA Order.
This is exactly the kind of lawyer John Cowen loves. Someone with zero regard for the law or the facts.
Can you image how he handles legal issues in his private business.
His lawyers keep on saying they want to settle, but they lie at every turn, while their actions clearly show they are just trying to delay until they can get a corrupt ruling.
I am so done. Jorge Rendon through his attorney is opposed to enforcement of the ADA Order signed by judge Woerner. What kind of disreputable businessperson opposes enforcement of an ADA Order which protects a disabled veteran? Answer: Jorge Rendon. He is angry and will destroy his own business.
He cannot endlessly ignore his lawyers disreputable conduct and then claim to be the victim. He should have fired them when they defaulted the lawsuit, and I had to give the bonding company extra time to file an answer.
He has had more than adequate time to hire a law firm not paid for by the bonding company. He has not because he is being told they will take me down while the law be damned.
His lawyer on June 15th, Auturo Lena, looked judge Terrell in the face and said I recused Judge McDonald. There is not an ounce of truth to this. It was a pathetic attempt to make me look bad. Judge Terrell could not care even once the record clearly showed Lena lied to him.
