Subject: Asst Atty Genl Harvey to me: my ORR complaint vs TX DPS is still active
From: John Kevin McMillan, public-information requestor. My efficiency-apartment-unit solo-occupancy rental-home address ever since June 21, 2019: Pebble Creek Apartments (a Belco Equities-affiliated, gated-community complex), 8805 North Plaza Drive, Building 17, Apt. 2418, Austin, TX 78753.

Dear Very Honorable Government Officials and Law-Enforcement Officials,
I would like to thank Texas Assistant Attorney General Jesse Harvey for making a polite return phone call to me at 12:04 p.m. Tuesday, January 26, 2021, in response to a recent voice-mail message I had left with the Attorney General's Office Open Government Hotline here in Austin.
In that return phone call to me yesterday, Assistant Attorney General Harvey stated that my two Open Records complaints from 2020 against the Texas Department of Public Safety state agency have been combined into one legal complaint by the Attorney General's Office.
That combined Open Records complaint from me---a legal complaint citing to the alleged failure of the Texas DPS state law-enforcement-agency to send me any reply letter in response to either of two separate Open Records requests I had written and e-mailed to the DPS on August 13, 2020, and February 21, 2020, respectively---is still classified as a currently-active complaint, Mr. Harvey stated.
The Open Records complaint identification number for that combined legal complaint of mine against the Texas DPS is "857196", Mr. Harvey said.
"It's an active complaint," Assistant Attorney General Harvey stated to me on the phone yesterday. "They're looking at it and they'll figure out what they need to do."
I neglected to ask Mr. Harvey whether the pronoun "they" contained in the word "they're" from his comment to me referred to the officially-designated Open Records Coordinator for the Texas DPS Office of General Counsel---the DPS office in Austin that is legally responsible for officially replying to Open Records requests to the DPS---or to the Open Records Division of the Texas Attorney General's Office.
I assumed during my phone conversation with Mr. Harvey that the "they" in his comment was referring to his Attorney General of Texas Open Records Division here in Austin. However, I have since considered the possibility Mr. Harvey may have been referring to the DPS Office of General Counsel here in Austin.
____
My August 13, 2020, public-information information request to the Texas DPS officially-designated Open Records Coordinator in the DPS Office of General Counsel had stated:
"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 referring at least once in any manner to myself, John Kevin McMillan of Austin, that your Capitol Region Headquarters Regional Director during the applicable nine and one-half-year time period ever on any occasion wrote or sent to, or received from, his immediate supervisor---the Deputy Director of Law Enforcement Operations for the Department of Public Safety...."
___
My February 21, 2020, Open Records request to the designated public-information coordinator for the DPS Office of General Counsel had stated:
"This is a Texas Open Records request in which I seek to obtain from you copies of 10 separate very recent photo images that I myself had e-mailed to your state-law enforcement agency's Texas Rangers Division during the multi-month (clarification in time frame) period from December 21, 2019 (correction on year), through the present, and that each appear to contain an image of someone other than myself apparently having been physically present inside the bedroom of my current solo-occupancy and always-bolt-locked and fully-secured efficiency apartment unit in north Austin...."
