I AM CONVINCED TEXAS AG PAXTON WILL NOW TAKE DOWN, LUIS SAENZ AND GABBY GARCIA, ALONG WITH THEIR STOOGES, LOUIS SOROLA, LAWRENCE RABB, KORINA BARRAZA, AND ALBERTO RODRIGUEZ

 

UPDATE 2.  I just got a call from Sylvia Garza-Perez, the county clerk.  She has assured me her staff has been informed that that their job is to file what they are given and allow the courts to handle any problems. 

I had to go public with what happened to send a message, things will change. Sylvia always is great at problem solving.  I was discussing another filing issue I am still working on concerning a deed, and Sylvia was very detailed in how to fix the problem.  The people who are working to run against her are not qualified.  Sylvia may have her loyalties to people I despise, but she knows her job and will do it without regard to undue influences from third parties. 

I can assure you I will receive no such call from Laura Perez-Reyes.  In fact, I have received enough information to proceed against Laura Perez-Reyes in a removal action.  She does not have the confidence of the legal community of the people who rely on her office for other purposes. 

Update:  I'm back.  I have my new keyboard.  I have two short posts and will get back to this. I do not believe Estela Chavez-Vasquez is willfully obstructing justice in this case.  I think she just has a very poor understanding of the constitution and is for sure constitutionally challenged when it comes to constitutional rights of criminal defendants. 

The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals has made clear, a criminal defendant can proceed pro se, after declaring their intent.  But not in Gabby Garcia or Estela Chaves-Vasquez's court.  They both have intentionally allowed for the conspiracy against John Doe by his court appointed attorneys to continue. 

These facts of this case are unique in that I have been able to preserve the evidence for review.  The claims are not pure conjecture. 

See, Hawkins v. State, 613 S.W.2d 720 (Tex.Crim.App.1981)

The most telling case on the issue of self-representation is that of George Lott.  He was an attorney who reached his limits when it came to judicial corruption.  The current security you see at the courthouse is a consequence of George Lott's actions.

After killing I believe 2 people at the Fort Worth Court of Appeals, he was indicted and plead guilty.  Many efforts were made to force him to accept counsel.  George Lott apologized for his actions and pled guilty.  Because of the death penalty, the case went directly to the Court of Criminal Appeals.  

George Lott made no effort to reverse the punishment of lethal injection.  Efforts were made to force him to accept counsel.  They all failed.  In record time he was put to death.

A side note - after George Lott's claims against the judge came to light, a new client contacted me making similar claims against the same judge. I verified the judge was trying to give custody t

The court reporter Kathryn Robers has to be getting the worse legal advice possible.  The Supreme Court has ruled she has no immunity as a court reporter in terms of preparing the record. Antoine v. Byers & Anderson, Inc., 508 US 429, 436 (1993)

I am here and busy working on John Doe's case. Me, I finally have an emergency appointment with the surgeon.  We live in the LRGV where quality medical care is hard to come by.  The surgeon everyone agrees is the best has not been available.  He is now.  My hearing is now nearly gone.  It is weird to be in Walmart and see people moving their lips and you cannot hear them.

WHAT IS HAPPENING?

In John Doe's case there is the refusal of the court to address the constitutionality of the court appointment statute which allow a judge like Gabby Garcia to ignore the random appointment process and appoint attorney who will do her dirty work.

Now here is the kicker.  The mandamus on the constitutionality issues must go to the new 15th Court of appeals, while the mandamus for other issues must go to the 13th court of appeals.  There is a real chance their opinions will conflict with one another.

Now who believes the 15th Court of Appeals will be happy that on a constitutional basis they will have to decide if their mere existence is even constitutional because it forces criminal defendants to purse their appeal in two different court of appeals, setting the case up for two different results.

The 13th Court of Appeals mandamus will be hand delivered on Monday morning.  The15th Court of Appeals will be delivered by UPS on Tuesday.

Now I have to get out to get a new keyboard. I cannot do anything complex on my laptop.

By noon I will have a more detailed post.

NEW STARBUCKS IS USING A 3D PRINTER FOR CONSTRUCTION

We sat in the parking lot adjacent to the construction and watched in amazement.  I know some people will say 3d construction denies day workers jobs.  The guys getting paid to oversee the construction, are getting paid good money.  Anything which creates higher paying jobs is good.

I am curious if any of the job training centers in Cameron County are providing training. 

 

GREENLAND IF AQUIRED BY TRUMP, WILL BE A MAJOR DRAIN ON THE US BUDGET

If we round up the population of Greenland it is 57,000 people.  Without Denmark, the people of Greenland would have very little.  Denmark pays for universal education and healthcare.  Do you honestly believe the American people will accept universal healthcare in Greenland while the poor continue to go without healthcare in the US?

After being elected Trump tells us he really has no control over groceries.  Then he asks for unlimited spending, asks the taxpayers to foot the bill to redo all the maps and associated variables to rename the Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America.  Then to top it off Trump wants us to fund the economy of Greenland.  So much for a balanced budget. 

COUNTY CLERK SYLVIA GARZA-PEREZ

DISTRICT CLERK LAURA PEREZ-REYES

IT IS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE - BOTH CLERKS ARE ALLOWING THEIR STAFF TO PRACTICE LAW- IT WILL END

Yesterday the lawsuit which was to be filed in county court at law, was non-suited in district court and refiled in the county court at law.  The style of the lawsuit clearly indicated it was intended to be filed in the county court, and the affidavit of indigence clearly had marked it was a case for the county court at law.  This is all in the non-suit because we do not want anyone arguing forum shopping.  Trust me with Judge McDonald the judge in the county court at law, I expect a fight.   I have already established in the case of Josefina Fisher he had no regard for the law and is a willing participant with Saenz to violate people's rights.  McDonald can challenge me on this, but the record is there.   That case was dismissed after a visiting judge found there was no legal basis for the alleged crime. 

Yesterday I lost an hour dealing with a county clerk who claimed she had a duty to decide if the county court has jurisdiction before she filed the lawsuit.  ABSOLUTELY NOT.  This is a legal question for the court.  And further, the Rules are clear, to establish monetary jurisdiction all you need to do is plead, within the Jurisdictional Limits of the Court.

You cannot predict special damages. All you have to do is with good faith plead within the jurisdictional limits of the court. 

Sylvia Garza Perez has gotten too comfortable in her position.  On balance I think she is a very good clerk.  I have personally seen her in the public community computer room helping people.  She is very good, when she can, in helping people.

The only person I have heard who will run against her in 2026. is not qualified.  It will actually be worse than electing Eric Garza as sheriff. Eric was very good in the clerk's office and should have stayed there. 

But when I lose an hour while supervisors debate whether the county court at law has jurisdiction over the case, it is clear Sylvia has failed in train her staff.  This is not acceptable.  Clerks who practice law need to be fired.

The same exits in Laura Perez-Reyes's office.  Concerning the document which they refused to file claiming the pro se has to file it electronically, they are now saying an attorney told them John Doe was not allowed to file documents. This is a question of law.  If two people are claiming the right to file documents, then the court must decide the issue as a matter of law, and not the clerk.

It does not end there.  John Doe has the right to request subpoenas issued at no cost.  Laura Perez staff has made clear the indigent pro se criminal defendant has no right to free service of the subpoenas. It is sad how much of your tax dollars will be used to protect the clerk's office. 

Laura Perez-Reyes was never qualified to run the District Clerk's office.  When Eric Garza was there, he always made time for me to fix problems.  As to Laura she is never in the office.  I have so many problems which can be verified in the John Doe case, she merits a removal action. 

 

JUDGE MARTIN CHIUMINATE, PURE EVIL, OR MENTALLY DERANGED

It is his choice, does his conduct in court yesterday demonstrate he is pure evil, with nothing but contempt for the law, or is he deranged?  I do not know.  The Commission on Judicial Conduct will decide, and possibly the Court of Appeals.  Yesterday, the Court of Appeals reversed the previous corrupt Democrats and reinstated their authority over the court reporters and set up a court reporter with contempt.  I am pursuing the same against Kathryn Roberts, Gabby Garcia's court reporter.  She is so evil, knowing she has been sued over withholding a paid for transcript and illegally charging for transcripts, and facing investigation by the state, she acted as the court reporter yesterday.  She was asked if she would produce the record.  She was given until 3 pm yesterday. She refused.  I do not care if she loses everything.  John Doe and his father told me she looked shaken yesterday during the hearing. A substitute court reporter would have been more inclined to comply with the constitutional mandate and provide the record for free. 

LAURA PEREZ-REYES, WILL FACE A REMOVAL ACTION, AND IS NAMED IN THE CRIMINAL COMPLAINT

Yesterday the document which explained the basis for the recusal of Judge Banales, and the two supporting documents were rejected by Laura Perez-Reyes.  The law is black and white, the clerk must file anything presented for filing.  They have zero discretion.  The stated reason for refusing the filing was John Doe as a pro se cannot file directly with the clerk.  Absolutely false.  Pro Se's as a matter of law, do not have to file electronically.  Laura clearly engaged in a criminal obstruction of justice.

Laura Perez-Reyes conduct prevented the filing of the document.  Irma Gilman is as corrupt and contemptuous of the law as anyone I have ever seen. But then of course her husband is Pete Gilman, First ADA under Luis Saenz.  The notice of hearing which formed the basis for the recusal of Banales, was never filed because Irma Gilman who was ordered to file it, refused.  This made it impossible for the court to take judicial notice of same.  Irma Gilman needs to be indicted on obstruction of justice.

SO, WHAT HAPPENED IN COURT?

The night before I had to go to DHR in Edinburg.  I am almost 100% deaf.  The surgeon who will address this is out of DHR.  I need all records to be at DHR or the VA.  I was very impressed when I saw my new VA doctor at the Brownsville clinic. He already had the CT scan from DHR and had begun the process of getting me set up for infusion antibiotic therapy.  The infection is in the inner ear bone, which has caused my hearing loss. I am nearly 100% deaf. Until the treatment is done, we will not know if I will get me hearing back

My new doctor is short on clinical experience, but he works really hard to address my issues.  He is there for me, and I feel really good about the quality of care he will be providing me.  He does not live in the world of old medicine.  Sometimes a new doctor who is not tainted with old medicine is your best option.

SO, COURT

My roommate was able to get me to the hearing after going to DHR to pick me up.

During the introduction I stood up and ID myself. I very clearly said to Chiuminate I had been in the hospital all night and that I was nearly deaf and a disabled veteran. I explained to him I could not hear a thing.  He refused to turn on the microphone.  This was deliberate.  John Doe's father who has no hearing problems could not hear a thing either.

I cannot hear anything.  The judge knows this.  He knows I am a disabled veteran.  He knows I have been in the hospital all night.  I can see his lips moving so I tell him I cannot hear.  He does not care.

In a very loud and terse voice he tells me to "sit down" and then while laughing says to everyone "I bet he heard that."  This is more than enough for a public reprimand, and as a visiting judge be stripped of his authority to act as a visiting judge. When I recounted the story with the VA they were horrified.  

With the VA I will be filing a formal complaint against the judge.  I was told how to do it.  Saenz and the hopelessly corrupt FBI will not be able to run cover for him.

On the FBI I have discussed this before.  The DOJ lawyers asked Saenz not to prosecute Oscar de la Fuente in state court.   Oscar was a key material witness as to all his bribes with former DA Villalobos. The assistant US attorney made a big deal on the record, Oscar was promised nothing as to not being prosecuted in state court.

But then as we all know, Saenz did not prosecute Oscar.  

Saenz has the communication from the DOJ to not prosecute Oscar de la Fuente.  The FBI is concerned if they go after Saenz he will go public with the DOJ request to not prosecute Oscar. 

This is why I am moving forward in Washington. 

THE OTHER VIOLATIONS IN THE HEARING

Now understand I only know this because I was told same by John Doe and his father.  I could not hear.  And after the judge threatened to remove me from the courtroom if I continued to speak, I remained silent.

THE JUDGE ORDERED JOHN DOE to not explain anything in Spanish.  He could only use English.  He is more comfortable in Spanish on some things. A judge cannot order someone who cannot express themselves in English to only speak English or not be heard.

THE JUDGE THREATED TO ARREST THE FATHER BECAUSE HE WAS SHOWING FRUSTRATION

The Judge asked ADA Javier Lozano if he wanted to invoke the Rule so that the father and I could be removed from the courtroom and denied knowledge of the court's abuse of John Doe.  The Rule only applies to witnesses who are not acting as an advocate.  

As the father claims to have testified, he had no knowledge of anything.  He was not a witness.  The move was to leave John Doe unprotected. After the judge told the father he could step down, the judge according to the father noticed he was angry.  The judge asked him if he wanted to be arrested.  He was told to not leave the witness chair after the judge released him.  He was very shaken.

I am John Does' legal advocate under the ADA.  The question is before the court of appeals.  Judge Chiuminatto refused to stay the proceedings and defer to the court of appeals.  This is unheard of.

I am told he asked Sorola what the ADA is.  If a judge does not know what the ADA is, he should not be a judge.  I am told Sorola said it has something to do with disability, and then rambled on about something John Doe and the father could not understand.

The judge was told John Doe has invoked his right to represent himself and that any recognition of Louis Sorola or Karina Barraza would be a legal nullity under Art, 1 sec 29 of the Texas constitution.  The judge did not care.

I am told Sorola went on to continue to defame me.  He has no immunity in the case because he is not an attorney in the case.  Based on what I was told the new defamation will be added to the defamation suit.

THE CASE OF ADA JAVIER LOZANO

According to John Doe, Javier told him on the day of the bogus attempt at a plea bargain that the state had no evidence, but that he could not do anything about it because Saenz was calling the shots.  I have a lot to do. When John Doe saw Javier in court yesterday, he remembered that when Sorola and Rabb brought him back into the courtroom on the day Rabb was appointed, he asked Javier if it was true there was no evidence against him as told to him by Sorola and Rabb.  That is when Javiar Lozano told him there was no evidence but there was nothing, he could do about it.

This is more than enough to disbar Lozano and have him prosecuted for obstruction of justice.  It will happen. 

IF LOZANO HAD A BRAIN, WHICH HE DOES NOT, HE WOULD RESIGN IN A PUBLIC WAY EXPLAINING THERE IS NO EVIDENCE BUT SAENZ IS CALLING THE SHOTS

Nope Lozano such as court reporter Kathryn Roberts will lose everything.  They both need to present themselves to the FBI

 

HONDURAN PRESIDENT XIOMARA CASTRO, TAKES ON TRUMP

She is now the second female Head of State to take on Trump.  Trum does not seem to understand Latin American takes pride in their independence from the US.  It is called Tiosamismo..  They will not tolerate undue influence in their countries.

For 40 years US troops have been stationed in Honduras.  President Castro has made it clear if Trump carries out its mass deportation threat, she will send the US troops packing.  She is not stupid. It will hurt the Honduran economy.  But it will hurt the US drug war in that the role of the US stopping it in Honduras, will come to an end.

None of these countries seem to object to the US deporting criminals.  But they are not going to tolerate the disruption of families already in the US.

Marco Rubio as Secretary of State will humiliate Trump and fall flat on his face. Again, Trump has no use for reality and just wants to govern as he pleases.  Kamala Harris had no understanding of this and fell flat on her face during her trip to Guatemala.  They are not going to tolerate this nonsense. 

Marco Rubio is the Cuban Latin Americans love to hate.  Not all, but most countries stand in solidarity with Cuba as a symbol against US oppression.  Marco Rubio is going to be on the receiving end of a lot of cold shoulders.

YOU CAN KEEP THE FAITH OR CRY THE HOURS AWAY

This is sort of a good public service notice.  On Sunday I always check for salt in my water softener.  Yep, the hot water heater is broken again.

But there is good news.  It is only 4 1/2 years old and is covered by the Rheem/Home Depot warranty.  Home Depot is aware and has verified when the plumber gets there with the old one, they will give me a free new one.  You just have to run the serial number on the hot water heater with the manufacture.  If it is covered, call where you bought it, and the new one should be free.

Now I have a choice, I can be like OMG something else, or great it is covered by the warranty and Roto-Router will handle it today, at no extra cost from any other day.  This is my 4th time using them and I could not be happier. 

SUFFERING THROUGH THE SINUS PAIN

I am mostly pain free right now.  The last medication regiment took over 2 hours to kick in. I could not move my neck.  The pain has moved to my shoulders.  I cried for nearly two hours.

It is an indictment on Brownsville leadership that they have not been able work with the hospitals to insure we have access to an ENT head and neck surgeon in the case of an emergency.

The doctor I see who helps me with the sleep deprivation always asks me how it is my coping mechanisms are so strong.  I always tell her my faith.  But Jimmy Carter in his passing gave me a better understanding.  

PURPOSE WITH FAITH WILL SUSTAIN YOU THROUGH ANYTHING
