Dear Travis County District Attorney's Office Open Records Requests Administrator in Austin, Texas,

This is a Texas Open Records request in which I seek to obtain from you a copy of any and all e-mail communications that respective high-ranking officials Don Clemmer, Gregg Cox, Dayna Blazey, Mike Lummus, Beverly Matthews, and Dexter Gilford of your Travis County District Attorney's Office in Austin, Texas, have each written or received at any time since January 3, 2017, 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 and solely written by myself, John Kevin McMillan of northwest Austin.

I am a gainfully-employed, permanently-drinking-alcohol-free, lifelong-tobacco-free, single adult Anglo male resident of the same county government precinct---precinct 3---in which Travis County Commissioner Gerald Daugherty resides. Mr. Daugherty, a Republican, reportedly is the primary county commissioner who officially represents me on the Travis County Commissioners Court.

On September 14, 2018, I received a surprising E-mail letter from Travis County Assistant County Attorney Ann-Marie Sheely. That letter directly stated to me in writing for the first time ever that County Commissioner Daugherty's office in recent years sought and obtained legal advice from attorneys of the Travis County Attorney's Office in regard to myself.

That disclosure to me was offered in the context of an official September 14, 2018, signed legal letter submitted by Ms. Sheely to the Attorney General of Texas on behalf of Commissioner Daugherty, a copy of which was provided to me by Ms. Sheely. Her legal letter sought official permission from that state agency for County Commissioner Daugherty to withhold from me records of those legal consultations his office had had with the county attorney's office in regard to myself.

On April 27, 2015, a birthday for me, I was interviewed in person at your Travis County District Attorney's Office by two DA's Office "Critical Incident Unit" investigators, Lt. Roger Dean and Sergeant Jose Ballesteros.

On September 26, 2014, I signed for and received inside the Balcones Post Office along Jollyville Road in northwest Austin a certified-delivery official September 23, 2014-dated, signed legal letter on official Travis County District Attorney's Office letterhead that was directly addressed to me.

That letter was written and signed by Travis County Assistant District Attorney Rob Drummond. That official DA's Office letter addressed to me directly cited "your complaint of December 18, 2013, regarding the conduct of the Austin Police Department."

That same certified-delivery legal letter to me from your DA's Office in Austin also stated, among other things, that "Our inquiry revealed that APD continues to maintain the evidence gathered on December 22, 2011. In addition, they have noted that the Travis County District Attorney's Office has requested the said evidence continue to be maintained. This resolves our inquiry. As we explained to you, the decision as to how to utilize investigative resources in a sexual assault allegation falls within the purview of the Austin Police Department. Therefore, we believe our involvement in this matter is concluded and our office will take no further action.
"Sincerely,
"Rob Drummond
"Assistant District Attorney
"Travis County".

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

I have resided in Austin proper on a continuous and uninterrupted basis ever since mid-March 1997.

I am a former full-time employee here in Austin of the "Texas Department of Public Safety" state law-enforcement agency. I am also a former full-time employee here in Austin for the "Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles" and the "Texas Department of Criminal Justice" state agencies, respectively.

I am also the founder and only current approved member of a new and non-Christian and implicitly-deistic "Honor Society" religion --- a religion publicized on local community-access television throughout the greater Austin area around the turn of the century. Several persons in the Austin area have told me they either dislike my religion intensely or do not regard it as comprising an actual or true religion.

That religion of mine is anti-drinking-alcohol and anti-tobacco and anti-marijuana, anti-medical-marijuana, anti-facial-hair-minded, anti-tattoos-minded, opposed to anonymous communications that are inflicted on someone against his wishes, opposed to deliberately fraudulent communications, anti-noise-pollution-minded, anti-thought-control-projects-minded, and anti-stalking, and also adamantly opposed to sexual assaults.

My religion, the "Progressive Prohibitionist Religion", has very stringent membership-eligibility guidelines.

During the time period applicable to this public information request, I myself resided as an official rent-paying tenant or official rent-paying occupant at the following apartment units:

---Village Oaks Apartments, 10926 Jollyville Road, Building 9, Apt. 902, Austin, Texas, 78759, the home address for me from late September 2015 until early September 2017.


---Village Oaks Apartments, 10926 Jollyville Road, Building 16, Apartment 1609, Austin, Texas, 78759, the home address for me ever since early September 2017, including at present.

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


Please let me know as soon as possible if you sense that you might have to charge me more than $20 in administrative fees you expect to incur from processing this public-information request from myself.

Sincerely and Best Wishes,

John Kevin McMillan, a former resident of the Boston area of Massachusetts who is myself a certified direct descendant of the Rev. William Brewster---the great Puritan religious leader who served as Head Chaplain on the Mayflower and as an adviser to Plymouth Colony Governor William Bradford in what is now the U.S. Commonwealth or state of Massachusetts.

My current home address: Village Oaks Apts. (a NW Austin apartment complex reportedly owned by a highly-regarded for-profit corporation that's headquartered in Newton, Mass.), 10926 Jollyville Rd., Bldg. 16, Apt. 1609, Austin, Texas, 78759.

NEW YORKERS AT THEIR MOST CANDID: IMAGINARY EVERYDAY COMMENTS OVERHEARD ON THE STREETS OF MANHATTAN

---"I wish my labor union would protect my legal right to obtain a 401-K retirement plan through my employer that does NOT involve me with investment in the tobacco or hard-liquor alcohol or marijuana or medical marijuana or tattoo-parlor or gambling or race-car-driving industries. But I don't believe that my labor union is willing to do that for me."

--"I've already told my daughter that I will NOT agree to attend her wedding if she ever gets engaged to a professional race-car driver. I don't want to get a phone call in the middle of the night in which my grief-stricken daughter while sobbing from her end of the phone line tells me her husband has been paralyzed for life from a race-car event he competed in that weekend."

---" I don't know of anyone in New York who doesn't seek to file a lawsuit against Donald Trump. This is probably the biggest contribution he has made to our country. He has reminded all of us that whenever anyone significantly wrongs us, we each have the legal right and moral imperative to file a lawsuit against the perpetrator in a court of law here in New York."

--"The type of feature story or feature series I would like to see in 'The Times' would be focused on how the clergy of the United States are responding to the Global Warming Effect. Is the Global Warming Effect being mentioned frequently in sermons these days? Is the Global Warming Effect being described in sermons as compelling evidence that Armageddon is approaching? If so, are American clergy maintaining that an Armageddon of that type can be averted through responsible conduct by American society and other nations? Are any members of the clergy urging all persons to stop smoking tobacco cigarettes or marijuana cigarettes, as one way to help reverse the Global Warming Effect? Is the response to the Global Warming Effect by members of the American clergy significantly different from that of clergy members in nations such as Canada, Great Britain, 
Australia, Ireland, France, and Germany? Does the dire warning from the religion of ancient Greece about the danger of flying too close to the sun proving to be pertinent for modern religions, with the focus today being on excessive exposure to the sun from being right here on this planet?"

--"I am outraged by Canada's legalization of marijuana! What's happening is that farmers in Canada are switching from growing crops that are actually nutritious and good for human health, to growing weed! Whoever came up with this idea for a perverse switch in Canadian farmers' priorities is someone so diabolical that it's obvious he is deliberately seeking to ruin Canada's integrity as a major producer of agricultural crops!"

---"If I ever do invest in Canadian real estate, I would prefer to put my money in the Canadian province where per-capita consumption of marijuana and other illicit drugs and tobacco is the lowest. I would have to contact the Canadian government in order to find out from officials in Ottawa which Canadian province fits that description. That's the place where I would be most likely to invest financially in Canadian real estate."

--"On the subject of Canada, I wonder why I don't own a Maple Cookbook that highlights each of the dishes I can make that use maple syrup as a leading ingredient. The fact that I've never seen a Maple Syrup Cookbook here in New York proves once again that Canadians could do a much better job at marketing their own country, it seems to me. Canada is the Maple Leaf country, yet they haven't even produced a maple-motif recipes book that I can recall having seen in the local bookstores here in Manhattan. In fact, if you asked me where the best Canadian restaurant is here in New York, I would be completely stumped by that question. It's another example of a nice business opportunity for promoters of Canada that they have apparently failed to take advantage of!"

A QUICK WAY TO DETERMINE THAT THE PERSON YOU JUST MET IS A POSSIBLE CURRENT OR FUTURE MEMBER OF THE 'PROGRESSIVE PROHIBITIONIST RELIGION' OR, AT LEAST, SOMEONE WHO MIGHT HAVE MANY OF THE REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS FOR POSSIBLE FUTURE MEMBERSHIP IN THAT FULLY INDEPENDENT NEW RELIGION

He states or indicates that he does not pray.
He states or indicates that he supports rational goal-setting by human beings as an alternative to prayer.
He states or indicates that he himself practices IMPLICIT deism, as distinct from someone who talks frequently about God, the Allmighty, the Deity, etc., or who talks frequently about his contempt for any and all religions.
He states or indicates that he strongly supports freedom of speech and freedom of religion and freedom of assembly for anyone and everyone, provided that the religion-related or other activities pursued by that person do not involve criminal activities such as deliberate and willful personal-injury-infliction and other forms of violence, attempted homicide, fraudulent and injurious medical services, deliberately fraudulent communications, infliction of continuous medically-injurious noise pollution on another person, hostage-taking of persons, kidnapping of persons, thought-control projects inflicted on individuals against their wishes, or any other noteworthy conduct that is illegal.
He states or indicates that he himself does not have any criminal-conviction record.
He states or indicates that he himself is dependably civil and non-violent and law-abiding.
He states or indicates that he himself on his own initiative is willing to contact a law-enforcement agency and report the incident if he witnesses another human being being apparently victimized by a felony crime.
He states or indicates that he does not subject another human being to pranks, and that he agrees with those who say that pranks are a form of criminal mischief that can be severely injurious to the person being subjected to a prank against his wishes.
He states or indicates that he never consumes any drinking alcohol.
He states or indicates that he believes the best use for drinking alcohol is in cooking, since alcohol as an ingredient can add flavor to dishes and the alcohol itself evaporates during the cooking process.
He states or indicates that he supports an Amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would authorize any municipality or county to impose restrictions to the sale of drinking alcohol that are more extensive than the restrictions imposed by the state government in that state.
He states or indicates that he never drives a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or any illicit drug.
He states or indicates that he does not have ANY tattoo emblazoned anywhere on his own body.
He is consistently facially cleanshaven, and agrees that facial hair on a male person spreads germs and comprises a threat to the medical health of others.
He states or indicates that he either does not own or wear any jewelry or wears only very minimal jewelry on himself.
He states or indicates that he has never consumed any tobacco product on any occasion in his entire life.
He states or indicates that he feels that smoking cigarettes is harmful to the environment and comprises a flagrant fire-safety hazard, in his opinion.
He states or indicates that he has not consumed any quantity of marijuana on any occasion in more than 10 years.
He states or indicates that in his entire life, he has never once consumed any quantity of any illicit drug other than marijuana.
He states or indicates that he himself does not spend more than $10 per year on gambling.
He states or indicates that he himself believes that professional race-car events waste fossil fuels in an unconscionable manner and are environmentally destructive as well as endangering the personal safety of the race-car drivers.

EXPLANATION TO PROPOSED VOLUNTARY PAYMENT OF FEES TO MEMBERS OF THE CLERGY OF OTHER DENOMINATIONS

My hope is that my integrity-minded and honorable non-Christian "Progressive Prohibitionist Religion" (PPR) will be so conscientious that it will generously offer to pay a fee to each member of the clergy of another religious denomination for whom a paragraph or two from a sermon or book written by that clergyman is used by my own religion in a fully attributed context.

The intent behind this stipend offer to members of the clergy of other denominations would be:

---to highlight my own religion's strong support for freedom of speech and freedom of religion.

---to highlight my own religion's commitment to rewarding excellence, and strong devotion to a fair-minded meritocratic tradition.

---to highlight the crucial point that my own religion is strengthened from making the best possible use, in a context fully compatible with my own religion's distinctive religious and political ideology, of impressive insights and salient factual information that clergy members in other denominations have offered or shared in written form.

---to politely underscore the point that my own religion is only able to use a paragraph or two from each of the sermons written by members of the clergy of other denominations. My own religion is factual-minded and eschews abstract nouns of conventional religion such as "God" or "Allmighty" or "Holy Spirit" or "Holy Ghost" or "hell" and"heaven" as expected afterlife destinations for human beings.

---to underscore the point that my religion seeks to help boost PPR members' brainpower and intellectual vitality.

ONE TECHNIQUE I WANT MY NON-CHRISTIAN 'PROGRESSIVE PROHIBITIONIST RELIGION' TO USE IN ORDER TO HELP MEMBERS STAY OR BECOME AS MENTALLY SHARP AS POSSIBLE: FIGURATIVE 'FLASHCARDS' THAT A MEMBER CAN REVIEW ONLINE THAT EACH FEATURE A PHOTO IMAGEOR ILLUSTRATION OF AN ITEM ALONG WITH AN EVERYDAY WORD FOR THAT ITEM AND A DEFINITION OF THAT NOUN THAT IS USED IN EVERYDAY LIFE

It seems to me that it will make quite a fine daily or weekly religious ritual if each member were encouraged to review the online 'technical nouns' flashcards on a daily or weekly basis. This can help to sharpen the intellect and can help to keep a person thinking clearly and concisely throughout his life, including during his years after age 55.

Among the technical nouns I want to see highlighted online in these mental-acuity "flashcards", along with how one technical noun compares with or contrasts with another technical noun, are:

---"foyer", as distinct from a "lobby" of a building.

---revolving door.

---a variety of synonyms for the word "knob", along with an explanation about the difference in meaning between each of those everyday technical nouns.

---an explanation about the difference in meaning between "porch" and "patio".

---veranda, along with a photograph of one.

---an explanation about the difference, if any, between a "den" and a "study" inside a home.

---cul-de-sac, along with an illustration of how that French term is used in referring to a street in a residential neighborhood, for instance.

----front drive-way, along with a photo illustrating that term.

----key chain, along with a photo of one.

----pavilion.

---rotunda.

---penthouse apartment unit.

---the difference between a "basement" and a "cellar".

---swivel chair.

---turn lane on a street.

---the difference (if any) between an "emergency lane" and a "shoulder" to a highway.

---"efficiency apartment" as compared with a "studio apartment" or a "one-room apartment".

---"escalator" as compared with a "staircase" or an "elevator" inside a building.

---love seat.

One hope of mine is that my through these types of online technical-nouns flashcard educational services, my non-proselytizing Progressive Prohibitionist Religion can help to prevent the onset of Alzheimer's Disease in a member of that religion.

A MOMENT OF ENLIGHTENMENT IN AN ADVERTISING SUPPLEMENT TO 'THE AUSTIN AMERICAN-STATESMAN' DAILY NEWSPAPER: AN ITEM NOTING THAT A SCIENCE MUSEUM IN JOHNSON CITY, TEXAS, IS WORTH A SPECIAL TRIP TO THAT CENTRAL TEXAS TOWN

"Austin American-Statesman", Sunday, October 21, 2018, "NEVER STOP LEARNING: EXPLORE AND DISCOVER MORE ABOUT YOUR ENVIRONMENT THROUGH LOCAL EDUCATIONAL EVENTS AND ACTIVITIES," by Noah Bradon:

"THE SCIENCE MILL IN JOHNSON CITY
"(SCIENCEMILL.ORG)
"Fifty miles outside Austin is Johnson City, Texas, which is home to The Science Mill. This is a big hit with families as well as individuals interested in studying science in an engaging setting...."

MORE FROM THE NEW YORK SCENE: A HOLIDAY-SEASON IMAGINARY EAVESROPPER'S REPORT

---"I like to celebrate the Holiday Season through a daily quest for food items and beverages featuring pumpkin meat or pumpkin puree. If I see a pumpkin muffin on display in a bakery, I will immediately buy it and devour it with gusto. Maybe I should look for a Pumpkin Recipe book and cook a variety of pumpkin dishes during my off-duty hours inside my efficiency apartment's kitchen. I'd love to make a pumpkin cake and treat a friend of mine to that cake. It will probably be the first time he's ever eaten a pumpkin cake, so I'm guaranteed of getting credit for originality."

---"As Pumpkin-crazy as you are, you should at least invite a pumpkin farmer to lunch or dinner. I feel it's hypocritical to have a pumpkin fetish, as you obviously have one, without wanting to tangibly reward the farmers who made that pumpkin pleasure possible for you."

---"I need to find the best restaurant here for pumpkin pancakes. To me, that would make a terrific Holiday Season breakfast, especially if I'm sitting across from a relative or friend I actually get along with well."

--"Whenever I watch a Hollywood movie about young persons attending school, I see it as a strategy for stimulating my brain. I figured out from reading a book on how to stimulate my brain that if I watch movies about the educational process, this will help me to harness my own brainpower. So when friends say they can't see the point of my watching a movie about being in your teens and attending high school, when I myself am obviously in my 40s, I point out that those movies are like a born-again experience for my brain. They are intellectually rejuvenating, you might say. They remind me that all of life is a learning experience, it's just that these days I don't get report cards from any teacher. If you can't develop an effective lifelong education strategy, you are truly a flunky in the worst sense of that word!"

--"I think the antacid companies love New York more than any other city in the U.S. Those companies know that per-capita sales for persons  with upset stomachs are probably higher here than in any other American city. It's New York's specialty: live here or visit here, and you automatically get an upset stomach at least once per week."

---"I need to find a magazine or newspaper here that features a 'Wish I had Met You at the Time' section. I would then post a statement in that section in which I mention that day and time and exact street corner where I had observed a slender brunette lady I feel sure I could have had a good dialogue with. This might then get me a reply letter, so we could meet in person at a Starbucks coffeeshop."

--"I prefer to post my credentials on the Strictly Platonic Personals section of the local newspaper. This gives me lots of responses, at least, and then I have the pleasure of identifying which 1 percent of those respondents are persons I'd actually want to meet. For the remaining 99 percent, I probably should send them a sympathy card; but I don't want to compromise my own personal security. Anything that identifies myself to them could be construed as inviting them to stalk me. And goodness knows we have far too many stalkers here already."

--"You hear the term 'upward mobility' so often here that you begin to sense that maybe you should wear a T-shirt that declares, 'I'm an Upwardly Mobile New Yorker'."

---"It doesn't make you a VIP that you're being stalked. No one is comparing your case to the stalking of that famous Hollywood actress Jodie Foster. In your case, it's probably someone who regards you as an irritant, and wants to swat you like a fly he's irked by to the point of disgust. That's the only reason he's stalking you. His intentions toward you are strictly homicidal, since it's obvious from looking at you that he has no romantic intent toward you. I hope that's reassuring news for you. All you need is a good bodyguard, assuming you can afford to hire a bodyguard. And if you can't, maybe you could take out a loan in order to hire one. You could have that bodyguard work for you for one month, and then if you are still alive at the end of that month, maybe you could drop that strategy and try moving to an obscure place like Portland, Maine. That could foil the stalker, since he's not likely to rent an apartment in Portland, Maine, just to spy on you there."

---"I agree with you that moving to Portland, Maine, might be the perfect way to foil a stalker here in New York. I have never once had a friend or relative of mine say that he was planning to move to Portland, Maine. No one ever thinks of Portland, Maine, as a place in which to actually live, if you're a New Yorker. You couldn't ask for a more low-key, un-noticed place where the news media are so obscure that I have no idea what the name of the Portland paper is. It's probably called something like the 'Portland Press'. I'm don't even know of any college in Portland, that's how invisible that city is on my own personal radar screen here in Manhattan."

November 10, 2018

Texas Lt. Governor Patrick,

I need to make the following correction to the following sentence in my November 8, 2018-dated e-mail letter to you, with the correction appearing in ALL- UPPERCASE TYPE:

"I might add that in the period ever since early 2016, I have undergone three different doctor-ordered medical surgeries on myself inside hospitals here in Austin for life-threatening medical problems in my body relating to TWO OF THE three separate aneurysms THAT WERE FIRST IDENTIFIED IN MY BODY IN RECENT YEARS, AND TO MULTIPLE ABDOMINAL HERNIAS FIRST IDENTIFIED IN MY BODY IN THE LAST FEW YEARS, that I had sustained to my cardiovascular system, DIGESTIVE SYSTEM, and/OR circulatory system."

Lt. Governor Patrick, I value having the best possible credibiIity for you in my capacity as a law-abiding, gainfully-employed, permanently teetotaling, single adult white British-and-German-American male constituent of yours here in Austin. I hope this clarification/correction is helpful to you.

Sincerely and Best Wishes,
John Kevin McMillan of Austin, Texas.

Subject: 11-8-18 questions for Lt. Gov. Patrick Fw: INETMAIL: Lt. Governor Dan Patrick

November 8, 2018

Dear Highly-Esteemed and Honorable Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick,

I myself am a single-by-choice, longtime-celibate-by-choice (including on a continuous and uninterrupted basis ever since I moved to northwest Austin in August 2001), always-sober and permanently teetotaling, gainfully-employed, dependably civil and honest and law-abiding and anti-stalking-minded, anti-marijuana-minded, anti-cocaine-minded, lifelong-tobacco-free and anti-tobacco-minded, facially-cleanshaven and anti-facial-hair-minded, anti-profanity-minded, anti-tattoos-minded, anti-jewelry-on-men-minded, and anti-drinking-alcohol-minded white Anglo-Saxon American citizen and adult male constituent of yours. I might add that I myself am NOT a "recovering alcoholic", nor am I a "former alcoholic" or a "former drug addict". In fact, I have not consumed any drinking alcohol on any occasion since the late summer of 1990; and I have not consumed any quantity of marijuana on any occasion since the late fall of 1984. In my entire life, I have never at any time consumed any illicit drug other than marijuana.

As a former full-time employee here in Austin of the Texas Department of Public Safety and the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles state agencies, I want to wish you and your State Government of Texas colleagues a very pleasant and healthful and prosperous Holiday Season.

Lt. Governor Patrick, would you please confirm for me in writing that the official e-mail address for you that I retrieved this week from my internet system computer records is still valid?

Also, I would appreciate learning from you as soon as possible whether you are aware of any State Government of Texas-sponsored entity, any State Government of Texas-monitored entity, any State Government of Texas-approved entity, any State Government of Texas-owned entity, or any State Government of Texas-authorized entity that is currently providing me inside my bolt-locked rental-apartment unit in Austin during my sleeping hours, as I lie alone on my own bed asleep and unconscious and probably also snoring, with any nasal-inhalant "medical" services, any oral-inhalant or oral-ingestion "medical" services, or any "medical" noise-infliction services involving any direct contact with my ears or my eardrums in any way, or any "medical" services that involve physical contact of any type with any portion of my own body under my waistline?

I am respectfully raising this question because, as you may already be very aware, I myself have never authorized any such "medical" services for myself that would be applicable at any time during my sleeping hours inside any rental apartment unit where I have ever resided here in this state capital city for Texas.

My understanding is it's a possible felony crime if anyone subjects an adult person anywhere inside the state of Texas to medical services that the latter individual did not authorize. Lt. Governor Patrick, would you please also confirm for me in writing that is the case?

I might add that in the period ever since early 2016, I have undergone three different doctor-ordered medical surgeries on myself inside hospitals here in Austin for life-threatening medical problems in my body relating to TWO OF THE three separate aneurysms THAT WERE FIRST IDENTIFIED IN MY BODY IN RECENT YEARS, AND TO MULTIPLE ABDOMINAL HERNIAS FIRST IDENTIFIED IN MY BODY IN THE LAST FEW YEARS, that I had sustained to my cardiovascular system, DIGESTIVE SYSTEM, and/OR circulatory system. (This is the now-CORRECTED version of the paragraph of this type that I had hastily written for the original letter I e-mailed to Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick on November 8, 2018---jkm)

Finally, Lt. Governor Patrick, I need to pose one additional respectful question to you at this time:
Do you strongly support safe housing conditions, including safe sleeping conditions, for any and all Texas residents, including myself?

Thank you in advance for your helpful reply letter to me in response to these public-policy-minded questions from myself.

I feel sure that your reply letter will be very reassuring to me, particularly since I still vividly recall the day in the summer of 2001 when Travis County Civil Probate Division Director David Ferris volunteered to me on the telephone from his county-government office in downtown Austin --- this within days after I had moved in August 2001 from an efficiency apartment unit near UT-Austin to a rental apartment unit at Wind River Crossing Apartments, 11411 Research Boulevard, in northwest Austin --- that "There appears to be an attempt by numerous persons to drive you (John Kevin McMillan of Austin) out of the Austin area."

Sincerely and Best Wishes,

John Kevin McMillan.

My home phone: (512) 342-2295.
My e-mail address: mcmillanj@att.nett


Date: November 12, 2018

Dear Very Influential Public Officials and Civic Leaders and News Media Professionals in Texas and elsewhere,

I would like to respectfully call your attention to a November 8, 2018-dated, three-page signed legal letter providing a noteworthy official Open Records ruling from the Attorney General of Texas in regard to myself, John Kevin McMillan of northwest Austin.

I received an official copy of that legal letter on November 9, 2018, through U.S. Postal Service delivery that day to my apartment complex-provided mailbox for my current rental apartment unit at Village Oaks Apartments, 10926 Jollyville Road, in Austin.

If any of you would like me to FAX that signed legal reply letter provided to me by the Attorney General of Texas, I will be happy to do that for you. I will also be happy to provide any of you with a copy of the full three-page October 19, 2018, written request for an Open Records ruling that was submitted to the Attorney General by the Travis County Attorney's Office on behalf of County Judge Sarah Eckhardt.

I received the November 8, 2018-dated copy of the official ruling from the Attorney General in my own capacity as the cited public-information "Requestor", with the envelope mailed to me by that state agency having directly and correctly cited my own first name, middle initial, and last name as the recipient of that letter. However, nowhere in the three-page November 8 legal letter itself from the Attorney General did it ever state my own first name, middle name, or last name.

The full exact text of the applicable October 11, 2018, e-mail public-information request from myself to Travis County Judge Sarah Eckhardt in Austin, Texas, is provided below (last item). My request sought a copy of documents on file with County Judge Eckhardt that each referred in any manner to myself, and that were not written exclusively by myself.

The cited "Open Records" ruling case (public-information-request-related case), as noted on the first page of the legal letter, is OR2018-28201. The cited reference number, according to an explanatory note provided below an Assistant Attorney General's signature on page 3 of the legal letter, is: ID number 743814.

That November 8 Open Records ruling letter on official Attorney General of Texas stationery was written and signed by Assistant Attorney General of Texas Britni Ramirez of the Open Records Division of the Office of the Attorney General of Texas in Austin.


The reply letter was addressed to Ms. Ann-Marie Sheely, Assistant Travis County Attorney in Austin, Texas, with a carbon-copy of that letter having been designated in writing for the "Requestor".

The ruling from the Attorney General's Office as delineated by Ms. Ramirez stated, and I quote verbatim the entire verbatim text of the last paragraph of page 2 of that legal letter (a long paragraph that I have chosen here to transcribe as four separate shorter paragraphs, in order to highlight key points from the text of the cited paragraph):

"The county judge's office states the responsive information consists of communications between attorneys and employees of the county judge's office.

"Additionally, the county judge's office states these communications were made for the purpose of facilitating the rendition of professional legal services, the confidentiality of the communications has been maintained, and the communications were not intended to be shared with any third parties.

"Based on these representations and our review, we find the county judge's office has demonstrated the applicability of the attorney-client privilege to the responsive information.

"Thus, the county judge's office may withhold the responsive information under section 552.107(1) of the Government Code."

The Open Records ruling from the Attorney General was in direct response to an October 19, 2018-dated, three-page signed written request for a ruling that was submitted by Travis County Assistant County Attorney Ann-Marie Sheely on behalf of Travis County Judge Sarah Eckhardt.

Ms. Sheely's October 19 legal letter contained the following exact verbatim statement:


"For reference, the responsive documents constitute emails between or among lawyers and staff of the Travis County Attorney's Office and its clients, the Travis County Judge and TNR, an executive department of Travis County, made for the purpose of facilitating the rendition of professional legal services and were intended to be confidential."

The full exact verbatim text of my own October 11, 2018, e-mail public-information request to County Judge Eckhardt is as follows:

Dear Travis County Judge Eckhardt,

This is a Texas Open Records request in which I seek to obtain from you a copy of any and all written communications, including e-mail communications, that at any time since 9 a.m. January 1, 2015, were each typed or written or handwritten or generated or received or sent or mailed or e-mailed or FAXed or forwarded by yourself, Travis County Judge Eckhardt, or by any staff member of yours in your county judge's office whom you directly supervise, 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 and solely written by myself, John Kevin McMillan of northwest Austin.

___________________________________

I am a gainfully-employed single adult Anglo male resident of Travis County, Texas, and I reside in Austin.

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

I have resided in Austin proper on a continuous and uninterrupted basis ever since mid-March 1997.

I am the founder and only current approved member of a new and non-Christian and implicitly-deistic "Honor Society" religion, the anti-drinking-alcohol and anti-tobacco and anti-marijuana-minded and anti-facial-hair-minded and anti-tattoos-minded and anti-anonymous-communications-minded and anti-thought-control-projects-minded and anti-stalking and anti-rape-minded "Progressive Prohibitionist Religion", that has very stringent membership-eligibility guidelines.

During the multi-year time period applicable to this public information request, I myself resided as an official rent-paying tenant or official rent-paying occupant at the following apartment units or hotel rooms:

---Wind River Crossing Apartments, 11411 Research Boulevard, Building 3, Apt. 325, Austin, Texas, 78759. I resided in that particular apartment unit from January 2002 until July 29, 2015, when my lease to reside there as an official rent-paying tenant expired after the management team gave prior notice earlier in 2015 that it had chosen not to renew that lease for me and my one total official roommate at that time.

---Crossland Economy Studios, 12621 Hymeadow, Apt. 133, Austin, Texas, 78729. I officially resided as a rent-paying tenant at this particular Extended Stay America hotel and efficiency apartments facility in Williamson County, Texas (a facility situated in far northwest Austin, with the Austin Police Department having law-enforcement jurisdiction at that location), from July 29, 2015, until late September 2015.

---Village Oaks Apartments, 10926 Jollyville Road, Building 9, Apt. 902, Austin, Texas, 78759, from late September 2015 until early September 2017.

---Village Oaks Apartments, 10926 Jollyville Road, Building 16, Apartment 1609, Austin, Texas, 78759, ever since early September 2017, including at present.

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

Incidentally, Judge Eckhardt, please let me know as soon as possible if you sense that you might have to charge me more than $20 in administrative fees you expect to incur from processing this public-information request from myself.

Sincerely and Best Wishes,

John Kevin McMillan, a former resident of the Boston area of Massachusetts who is myself a certified direct descendant of the Rev. William Brewster---the great Puritan religious leader who served as Head Chaplain on the Mayflower and, later, as a leading adviser to Plymouth Colony Governor William Bradford in what is now the U.S. Commonwealth or U.S. state of Massachusetts.

My current home address: Village Oaks Apts. (a NW Austin apartment complex reportedly owned by a highly-regarded for-profit corporation that's headquartered in Newton, Mass.), 10926 Jollyville Rd., Apt. 1609, Austin, Texas, 78759.
