Dear Office of the Attorney General of Texas state agency Open Records Division Officials in 
Austin,

Thank you for your confirmation message (final item, below) to me late this Wednesday night, September 30, that your State of Texas agency has received my online public-information-request complaint against the Office of General Counsel of the Texas Department of Public Safety state law-enforcement agency state headquarters offices in north Austin.

Below, please find the text of my politely-worded written appeal to Texas DPS Director Steven McCraw. My appeal relates to the alleged failure of the DPS Office of General Counsel to send me a reply letter of any type in response to my August 13, 2020, public-information request (below) to the DPS.

DPS Director McCraw chose not to send me any written response to my appeal through his state agency.

Incidentally, I am e-mailing you the full exact text of my August 13 public-information request because I had difficulty attempting to download my public-information request and accompanying appeal to DPS Director McCraw.

Please let me know if this e-mailed documentation from me is not adequate on behalf of finalizing and making complete my official online complaint I had submitted to your state agency at about 11:53 p.m. this Wednesday night, September 30, 2020.

Best Wishes,
PIR complainant John Kevin McMillan.
My solo-occupancy efficiency-apartment-unit rental-home address ever since June 21, 2019:

Dear Texas DPS Director and Colonel McCraw,

Congratulations on your 11-year tenure thus far as statewide Director of the Texas Department of Public Safety, and on your prior very impressive law-enforcement career as a special agent for the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

I would be very grateful to you if you would please ask your state agency's Open Records Coordinator in the DPS Office of General Counsel to promptly send me a written response to my August 13, 2020, public-information request (below)----a request that I had e-mailed that same day to your correct official DPS Open Records e-mail address of "ogc.webmaster@dps.texas.gov".

So far, I apparently have not received any reply note of any type  in response to my August 13, 2020, public-information request to your state agency headquarters here in north Austin.

Thank you in advance, DPS Director and Colonel McCraw, for your invaluable assistance on this.

Best Wishes,

John Kevin McMillan, a former full-time staff member for the Texas DPS Motor Carrier Bureau along Guadalupe Street here in north Austin.

Dear Open Records Coordinator for the Texas Department of Public Safety,

This is a Texas Open Records request in which I seek to obtain from your state-government law-enforcement agency in Austin a copy of any and all e-mail communications or reports referring to myself, John Kevin McMillan of Austin, at least once in any manner, and that were written, e-mailed, sent, mailed, received, or FAXed at any time since 12:01 a.m. April 28, 2011, by any certified peace officer or law-enforcement officer or administrator based at the Texas DPS Capitol Complex, Capitol Region Headquarters, with your Regional Director who directly supervises your Capitol Region Headquarters being one such applicable DPS administrative official.

INCLUDED in the scope of this request are any and all e-mail communications or reports that your Capitol Region Headquarters Regional Director wrote, sent, or received during the applicable multi-year time period to his immediate supervisor, the Deputy Director of Law Enforcement Operations for the Department of Public Safety.

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

I have resided in Austin proper ever since mid-March 1997, during which time I have been employed by a variety of reputable employers, including the Texas Department of Public Safety state law-enforcement agency. I was employed full-time in your DPS Motor Carrier Bureau along Guadalupe Street for one year in the late 1990s.

My primary personal e-mail address of "mcmillanj@att.net" and my primary personal phone number of "512-342-2295" have remained the same throughout the entire nine-year period applicable to this public-information request.

I am a former Salutatorian of Stephen F. Austin High School of Austin Independent School District in Austin, Texas. I am an alumnus of The University of Texas at Austin and The University of Minnesota Graduate School of Journalism and Mass Communications in Minneapolis, respectively.

During the nine-and-one-third-year period applicable to this public-information request, I have resided at the following locations, listed chronologically from oldest address for me to most recent address: 
---Wind River Crossing Apartments, 11411 Research Boulevard, Apt. 325, Austin, TX 78759; 
---Crossland Economy Studios, 12621 Hymeadow Road, Apt. 133, Austin, TX 78729; 
---Village Oaks Apartments, 10926 Jollyville Road, Apt. 902, Austin, TX 78759;
---Village Oaks Apartments, 10926 Jollyville Road, Apt. 1609, Austin, TX 78759;
---Austin Motor Inn, 11400 North Interstate Highway 35, a first-floor room, Austin, TX 78753; and
---Pebble Creek Apartments, 8805 North Plaza Drive, Apt. 2418, Bldg. 17, Austin, TX 78753.

I am the founder and only approved current member of a new and non-Christian non-proselytizing "Honor Society" religion, the anti-marijuana, anti-medical-marijuana, anti-illicit-drugs, anti-tobacco, anti-drinking-alcohol, anti-tattoos, anti-profanity-minded, anti-facial-hair-minded  "Progressive Prohibitionist Religion", that has very stringent membership-eligibility requirements. 

That one total religion of mine opposes home-invasion crimes, opposes personal-injury-crimes, opposes sexual assault crimes, opposes the sex crime of pederasty, opposes the infliction of profanity or obscene speech on anyone in a context that violates their own privacy rights, opposes anonymous communications that violate the privacy of the person being subjected to those communications, opposes fraudulent or knowingly dishonest communications, opposes thought-control projects, opposes so-called "deprogramming" projects, opposes kidnappings, opposes hostage-takings, opposes compelled speech that violates the privacy rights of the individual being subjected to that compelled speech against his wishes, and opposes deliberate infliction of continuous noise pollution on anyone in a context that harms that individual's own medical health or that is aimed at punishing him or her for having political or religious or personal beliefs---or personal prejudices, even---that are disliked or opposed by the perpetrators or sponsors of that noise pollution.

Numerous current or former Central Texas residents have stated to me over a multi-year period that they either dislike or intensely dislike or question the authenticity of my own fully-independent "Progressive Prohibitionist Religion" (PPR). Around the turn of the century I gave several televised speeches on behalf of that religion of mine on local Community Access Television in Austin. One younger Central Texan man left a violent-sounding and obscene anonymous recorded phone message on my telephone-answering machine inside my apartment near UT-Austin---a recorded phone message in which he volunteered that he himself is "Catholic". In his recorded message to me, he stated that he was reacting to one or more locally televised speeches of mine that I gave on behalf of my PPR religion.
