"The role of the Attorney General is to support and enforce laws that are enacted by the Texas Legislature. Under Texas law, the Office of the Attorney General is prohibited from providing legal advice, analysis, opinions or representation to private individuals."
I am so glad that I received respective official online and e-mail confirmations at 2:58 a.m. Mountain Time today (Friday, February 17) that the Attorney General of Texas has received my Open Records complaint against the Open Records Coordinator for the Travis County District Attorney's Office in Austin, Texas.
My online complaint stated that the DA's Office in Austin had failed to send me any written reply to my January 20, 2023, Travis County DA's Open Records request focused exclusively on myself during the time period from January 1, 2021, through January 16, 2023.
My complaint alleged that the "no reply" toward me by the DA's Office Open Records Coordinator (the exact name of that designated official being unclear to me when I filed my online complaint today through the Texas Attorney General, so I cited the name of the Executive Assistant to the District Attorney in my online legal complaint today) had occurred despite a courtesy follow-up note I had written and e-mailed to that DA's Office's Open Records Coordinator on February 10, 2023.
The e-mail reply I received today from the Attorney General of Texas in regard to this Open Records Complaint of mine against the Open Records Coordinator for the Travis County DA's Office in Austin:

Dear Open Records Coordinator for the Travis County District Attorney's Office in Austin, Texas,
I still have not received any reply letter from you that confirmed your receipt of my January 16, 2023, Open Records request to your DA's Office in the state capital city of Texas.
If I do not hear back from you by the close of your business day on Monday, February 13, I will have no choice but to myself submit a written Open Records complaint to the Attorney General of Texas.
Also, please let me know as soon as possible if you yourself are planning to seek official permission from the Attorney General of Texas to withhold from me one or more of the legal documents on file with your DA's Office that are responsive to my January 16 public information request.
Thank you in advance for your prompt reply letter to me on this.
Best Wishes,
requestor John Kevin McMillan, 535 South 200 East, Apt. 912, Salt Lake City, UT 84111.

Dear Open Records Coordinator for the Travis County District Attorney's Office in Austin, Texas,
I have not received any reply e-mail letter from you confirming that you have received my January 16, 2023, e-mail Open Records request (below), and also stating that you will be providing me with a full and complete written response within 10 working days --- as is required by state law in Texas.
I would appreciate it if you would please write and send that friendly reply letter to me at your earliest convenience.
Incidentally, please note the bold-faced typographical correction I have inserted into the following paragraph in that January 16 Open Records Request:
"--Did the Travis County District Attorney's Office under Mr. Garza's leadership obtain any credible evidence that I myself was victimized by one or more alleged home-invasion-related sexual assault crimes or other alleged felony sex crimes or felony personal injury crimes during my continuous and uninterrupted period of residence in Travis County, Texas, that occurred from mid-March 1997 until December 31, 2021, the date when I relocated to Utah by airplane?"
I have also inserted that bold-faced correction into the text below.
Best Wishes,
requestor John Kevin McMillan, 535 South 200 East, Apt. 912, Salt Lake City, UT 84111.

Subject: 1-16-23 Travis County (TX) District Attorney Open Records Request
To: Open Records Division Coordinator,
Travis County District Attorney's Office,
Travis County Government,
Ronald Earle Building,
416 West 11th Street,
Austin, Texas 78701.
FAX number: 512-854-4206.
Main phone number for your DA's Office: (512) 854-9400.
January 16, 2023
Dear Travis County District Attorney's Office Open Records Coordinator,
This is an Open Records request in which I seek to obtain from you a copy of any and all documents written or generated by your DA's Office in Austin during Jose Garza's current tenure as the DA that referred to a legal action or administrative action pursued by, an investigation pursued by, or a criminal charge filed in a court of law by,
the Travis County District Attorney's Office at any time since January 1, 2021, and that in each and every such case also related to me or referred to me in any manner or context.
My legal name is John Kevin McMillan. My date of birth is 4-27-1957; my place of birth is Lincoln, Nebraska.
During the applicable period from January 1, 2021, through the present, my only residential address in Travis County, Texas, was at the gated-community Pebble Creek Apartments complex in northeast Austin. My address there was: 8805 North Plaza Drive, Apt. 2418, Austin, Texas, 78753. My home phone number during that period was (512) 342-2295. My cell phone number, after I purchased and obtained my first-ever cell phone in August 2019, was and continues to be: (512) 993-7305. My current e-mail address is: mcmillanj@att.net.
Among the insights I hope to glean from this public information request are answers to the following questions:
---Has District Attorney Jose Garza requested that the Austin Police Department continue to maintain with full integrity each of the three respective forensic medical exam rape-evidence kits obtained from me at my request in Austin----two of them in 2011 and one of them in 2021?
---What prompted Henry Kellison, the polite Executive Assistant to Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza, to state to me on my cell phone in early April of 2021 that I myself am the complainant --- NOT the defendant, he emphasized to me on the phone in 2021 --- in a felony "home invasion crimes" case?
----What prompted Mr. Kellison of your DA's Office in Austin to specifically state to me on the telephone on April 6, 2021, that he wanted me to "hire a criminal-defense attorney" to represent me in planned communications with the DA's Office in Austin in the above-cited context in which I myself would be the cited criminal-law complainant?
--Did the Travis County District Attorney's Office under Mr. Garza's leadership obtain any credible evidence that I myself was victimized by one or more alleged home-invasion-related sexual assault crimes or other alleged felony sex crimes or felony personal injury crimes during my continuous and uninterrupted period of residence in Travis County, Texas, that occurred from mid-March 1997 until December 31, 2021, the date when I relocated to Utah by airplane?
---Is Travis County District Attorney Garza aware that I myself have never on any occasion since or including December 31, 1979, ever once agreed to participate in or participated in any mutual-consent sexual contact with another human being or any "beast", for that matter, in Travis County, Texas?
---Is Travis County DA Garza aware that the most recent occasion when I myself participated in a mutual-consent sex act occurred on one total cited date in 1995 with an adult Anglo person in Baytown, Texas?
--Is Travis County Garza aware that I myself have never once consumed any quantity of any alcoholic beverage anywhere in Travis County, Texas, or elsewhere in the entire world on any occasion since the late summer of 1990, when I was resided in Austin, Texas; and that I myself have never once consumed any quantity of marijuana on any occasion since the late fall of 1984, when I resided in Worcester, Massachusetts; and that in my entire life I myself have never once consumed any illicit drug other than marijuana?
---Does Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza currently plan to file one or more felony criminal charges in a court of law in Travis County, Texas, that refer to me as the cited victim?
---Is Travis County District Attorney Garza concerned that an expected very large number of defendants in a courtroom proceeding in Austin in which I am the cited victim of one or more felony home-invasion sex crimes and other personal-injury crimes in Travis County, Texas, over a multi-year period might pose a possible "barrier" to successful full and vigorous prosecution of those felony crime cases in a court of law in Austin?
---Does Travis County DA Jose Garza agree that I am dependably civil and law-abiding, that I myself do not have any criminal-conviction record, and that I have very strong credibility as a criminal-law complainant in a Home-Invasion Sex Crimes case in Travis County, Texas?
---Does the Travis County District Attorney's Office have any factual evidence that any person, group of persons, business entity, media company, non-profit group, religious or political group, "educational services" provider, "medical services" provider, government-owned institution, or other entity either maintaining a residential address or business address in Travis County, Texas, or owning or leasing property in Travis County, Texas, has possibly had an alleged involvement of some type in alleged continuous inter-racial harassment of me, alleged continuous verbal abuse of me in retaliation against my well-known Anglophilia (my keen affinity for law-abiding facially-cleanshaven naturally-blond white Anglo non-Hispanic persons) and my Anglosexual (I DO NOT agree to ever have sexual contact with any non-whites) sexual identity, or to my identifying with and experiencing a politely expressed greater emotional affinity toward a higher percentage of the law-abiding, politely masculine, non-alcoholic, tobacco-free, facially-cleanshaven Anglo non-Hispanic heterosexual adult men my age or younger than any other subpopulation of adult men?
--Is Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza aware of any deliberately dishonest or fraudulent continuous anonymous communications I am currently being subjected to in Salt Lake County, Utah, or I was subjected to in Travis County, Texas, for which one or more persons in Travis County, Texas, have had an alleged role, whether as a direct financier of those communications or as a participant in them?
---Does Travis County DA Garza believe that continuous stress-inducing medically injurious noise pollution that I did not generate or want, and to which I was subjected in Travis County, Texas, for many years, including at my respective workplaces in Austin, involved alleged criminal-intent toward me by numerous persons?
---Does DA Jose Garza believe I myself was stalked by anyone in Travis County, Texas, who attempted to prevent me from developing a mutual-consent social life and a mutual-consent romantic life in Travis County?
---Is Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza aware that a first-rate attorney in Houston, Texas, Arnold G. Polanco, on June 6, 2008, advised me on the telephone from his Ross Banks Law Firm office (office phone number 713-626-1200) that it is illegal in Texas for a government agency to subject me to continuous verbal communications in any context after continuous electronic surveillance of myself had already been authorized by a government agency?
---Does Travis County DA Garza know what prompted W. Rick Copeland, then the agent in charge of the FBI office in Austin, Texas, to state to me on the telephone in the late 1990s, when I called him from inside a University Federal Credit Union location in north central
Austin, that unless I myself was involved in "illicit drug trafficking" --- and I most definitely was NOT --- it would be illegal for the government in Texas to subject me to continuous electronic surveillance of myself?
---Is Travis County DA Garza aware that I myself have NEVER authorized any "anonymous educational services", any "anonymous fraudulent communications" to me, any "anonymous sexual penetration services" being inflicted on me, any "anonymous mental-health services", or any "thought-control project" being inflicted on me?
---Is the Travis County DA's Office aware that I myself officially became a permanent resident of the great and significantly more
Anglo-Saxon state of Utah on January 1, 2023, after I had resided in and remained in Salt Lake County, Utah, on a continuous and uninterrupted basis for one full calendar year in which I myself never traveled outside of Utah on any occasion?
---Does Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza agree with a statement to me in 2019 or 2020 by the Office of the Attorney General of Texas (OAG) in Austin that I myself would not qualify for any human-trafficking investigation by their state agency's Human Trafficking Unit in which I was the cited victim, with their cited reason to me having been that I myself was not being "paid" by anyone in exchange for their reportedly having physical or sexual contact with me during my sleeping hours inside my locked solo-occupancy rental apartment unit in northeast Austin.
---Has Travis County DA Garza contacted a federal law-enforcement agency based on evidence Mr. Garza has obtained that I myself have been or was subjected to illegal felony-crime activities involving the crossing of state lines or involving inter-state commerce, or involving inter-racial hate crimes or other hate crimes in which I myself was the white non-Hispanic (my racial group), English and Scottish and German in ancestry, and
non-Jewish victim; in which I was the lifelong-non-Christian and religiously independent and implicitly deistic and non-atheistic victim; in which I was the morally and aesthetically straight and longtime celibate by choice, non-transsexual and non-effeminate and personally-myself-opposed-to- sex-change-operations victim; in which I was the senior-citizen victim; in which I was the lifelong-single victim; and in which I was also the adult male lifelong-American citizen-from-birth victim?
I hope to hear from you soon.
Best Wishes,
public-information requestor John Kevin McMillan.
