Dear Leander Police Records Custodian Haley,

This is a Texas Open Records request in which I seek to obtain from your municipal law-enforcement agency in Leander, Texas, a copy of any and all written communications, including e-mail notes or e-mail letters, that Leander Police Chief Greg Minton, or any Leander Police Department staff member or officer or Leander PD crime investigator, received or wrote or forwarded or sent or mailed or
e-mailed or FAXed at any time since or including May 31, 2016, and that, in each and every such case, referred at least once in any manner to myself, John Kevin McMillan of northwest Austin.

EXCLUDED from the scope of this public-information request are any and all written communications that were exclusively written by myself.

However, any and all notes or responses that Leander Police Chief Minton or any staff member or officer of his wrote in response to or in regard to an E-mail communication or letter from me that I had sent to Chief Minton, ARE included in the scope of this public-information request.

This public-information request was prompted in part by a legal document that the City Government of Cedar Park---a Williamson County city that borders Leander from the south---provided me in response to a 2016 public-information request I had submitted in writing to the City of Cedar Park.

I am referring to the legal document in which the Cedar Park Chief of Police, Sean Mannix, sent an
e-mail advisory note to all of his Cedar Park Police officers, and to Leander Police Chief Minton, in which Chief Mannix used police-code language ("10-96") to indicate in writing that Chief Mannix regarded me (John Kevin McMillan, a gainfully employed and law-abiding and permanently-drinking-alcohol-free single adult Anglo male resident of northwest Austin who myself has no criminal-conviction record) as being a "mental patient" or "subject with mental illness" or "lunatic", or words to that effect.

The following is the exact text of that particular 2016 e-mail communication from Cedar Park Police Chief Mannix, with a copy of the legal document having been sent to me later that year by Cedar Park City Secretary LeAnn Quinn in response to an August 13, 2016, e-mail public-information request from myself:

"From: Sean Mannix

"Sent: Tuesday, May 31, 2016 5:43 PM

"To: (Cedar Park) PD General Inbox; 'Leander Police Chief Minton'

"Subject: RE: 5-22-16 urgent note to Ms. Black at SafePlace Austin

"FYI,

"This poor guy is 10-96 and believes that somebody enters his locked apartment on a nightly basis and sexually assaults him in his sleep. This has been going on for over six years and he continuously emails police officials, politicians, news organizations, prosecutors, etc.

"APD's CIT folks are very familiar with him. Any reply to Mr. McMillan will add you to his list of folks to correspond with.

"Sean"

As City Government of Leander officials are no doubt very aware, Cedar Park Police Chief Sean Mannix served as Assistant Chief of Police for the Austin Police Department (APD) immediately before Chief Mannix became Chief of Police for Cedar Park.

My legal name is John Kevin McMillan. I was born on April 27, 1957, at Lincoln, Nebraska.

I have most recently resided in Austin, Texas, on a continuous and uninterrupted basis ever since mid-March 1997.

I have resided in two respective rental residences in northwest Austin during the period ever since May 31, 2016:

Village Oaks Apartments, 10926 Jollyville Road, Building 9, Apt. 902, Austin, TX 78759;
and, ever since early September 2017,

Village Oaks Apartments, 10926 Jollyville Road, Building 16, Apt. 1609, Austin, TX 78759.

My personal e-mail address has been the same throughout the entire time period for this public-information request: "mcmillanj@att.net". I have kept the same AT&T phone service landline home phone number, (512) 342-2295, for many years, including at present.

I hope to hear from you soon in response to this public-information request from myself.

Sincerely and Best Wishes,
John Kevin McMillan.
