Dear State Bar of Texas state agency Open Records Coordinator,
This is a Texas Open Records request in which I seek to obtain from you a copy of any and all e-mails, letters, memoranda, reports, or other written communications that referred to me at least once in any manner, and that at any time since June 1, 2018, were written, sent, e-mailed, FAXed, mailed, forwarded, or received by a staff member, attorney, or administrator of the Governmental Relations Office of your state agency here in Austin.
Excluded from the scope of this request are any and all e-mail letters from the applicable three and one-half-year time period that I myself directly e-mailed to your Governmental Relations Office without that office of your state agency taking any action of any type on, or generating any written response to, that e-mail letter from me.
INCLUDED in the scope of this request any and all e-mail letters during the applicable time period that I sent to your state agency's Governmental Relations Office that elicited a written response from that office or that were sent, forwarded, mailed, or FAXed by that office---including when a staff member in the Governmental Relations Office forwarded an e-mail letter of mine to another staff member within that same office, or forwarded an e-mail letter of mine to another division or another office of your State Bar of Texas state agency, such as your Office of General Counsel, Office of Chief Disciplinary Council, or your state agency's Office of the Executive Director.
ALSO INCLUDED in the scope of this request are any and all written communications received by your state agency's Governmental Relations Office since June 1, 2018, that were sent to that office by a person other than me.
My legal name is John Kevin McMillan. I was born on April 27, 1957, in Lincoln, Nebraska. I am a lifelong American citizen. I am also a lifelong single person.
According to my personal computer system's online records, in the period ever since June 1, 2018, I have directly e-mailed a total of 74 e-mail letters to your State Bar of Texas Governmental Relations Office at that office's e-mail address of "govt.relations@texasbar.com".
I am not able to locate any record of any reply letter to me that I myself ever directly received from your state agency's Governmental Relations Office in the most recent three and one-half-year period.
Below are two separate e-mail reply letters I received in 2021 from State Bar of Texas official Stephanie Lowe:

Subject: RE: Asst Atty Genl Harvey to me: my ORR complaint vs TX DPS is still active
Mr. McMillan,
As I noted in my previous email to you (see attached), my office cannot investigate complaints against attorneys. If you want to file a complaint, you will need to do so with the Chief Disciplinary Counsel’s office.
As my office cannot investigate complaints and as I have given you all the information I have about how to file one, I would appreciate you removing me from future emails concerning this matter.
Sincerely,
Stephanie

Subject: RE: 12-10-20 note to Bickerstaff law firm rep on my 7-23-20 PIR re: ACC Police Chief Dixon and me
Mr. McMillan,
Thank you for contacting the Ombudsman for the Attorney Discipline System. Although it is not entirely clear why you included me on this email, it seems like you might be having an issue with an attorney. If that is the case, then the department you need to direct your complaints to is the Chief Disciplinary Counsel’s office (CDC). This is the main division that is responsible for the screening, investigation and litigation of allegations of professional misconduct against attorneys. If you think that the attorney’s actions constitute professional misconduct under the Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct (which can be found here: https://www.texasbar.com/AM/Template.cfm?Section=Home&ContentID=27271&Template=/CM/ContentDisplay.cfm) and decide to file a formal grievance through the CDC, the first step is to complete a grievance form, either through the State Bar of Texas' online submission system or by printing out the form and faxing or mailing it in. When filling this out, keep in mind that you should fill out the form completely with as much information as you have. You should attach copies (not originals) of any documents that you believe will help explain your grievance and mail copies of your documents to:
State Bar of Texas
Chief Disciplinary Counsel's Office
P.O. Box 13287
Austin, Texas 78711
Phone: 1-800-932-1900; (877) 953-5535
Fax: (512) 427-4169
You can find a video explaining this process here: https://pbvideo.vids.io/videos/7c9bdeb31d1ce3c3f4/cdc-how-to-file-a-grievance. If you would rather read about the process in detail, you can find that here: https://www.texasbar.com/Content/NavigationMenu/ForThePublic/ProblemswithanAttorney/GrievanceEthicsInfo1/File_a_Grievance.htm
I suggest that you read everything thoroughly before submitting any grievance but if you are ready to get started with the process, here is the link for the online submission form: https://cdc.texasbar.com/cdc/.
I have attached a brochure as well as a complaint form for your reference.
Hopefully this information gets you started on the process but feel free to reach back out if you have any further questions.
Sincerely,
Stephanie
