Included in the scope of this public-information request are any and all records of written or telephone communications between Travis County District Attorney Garza and Salt Lake County (UT) District Attorney Sim Gill in Salt Lake City, Utah, during the applicable time period ever since 8:01 a.m.  January 17, 2023, through the present that each referred to me at least once in any context.




Also included in the scope of this public information request are any and all  records of written or oral  communications during the applicable time period ever since 8:01 a.m. January 17, 2023, between District Attorney Garza or a staff member of his in Austin, Texas, and any federal, state, or local  law-enforcement agency anywhere in Texas---or anywhere else in the USA---that each  referred to me at least once in any 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 entire time period ever since Jose Garza assumed elective  office as Travis County DA on January 1, 2021, my only residential address in Travis County, Texas, was at the gated-community Pebble Creek Apartments complex in northeast Austin. My bolt-locked solo-occupancy studio rental apartment unit address at that complex  was: 8805 North Plaza Drive, Apt. 2418, Building 17, Second Floor, Austin, Texas, 78753. 




The signed official lease agreement of mine for that solo-occupancy rental apartment unit was officially terminated by me with written consent from the management team for Pebble Creek Apartments effective on a cited day during the first week  of January 2022.




 My home phone number during the time period when I resided at Pebble Creek Apartments  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 primary e-mail address has been the same throughout nearly all of this  century so far:  mcmillanj@att.net.




My solo-occupancy rental-apartment-unit home address ever since June 1, 2022:

535 South 200 East, Apt. 912, Ninth Floor, Salt Lake City, UT 84111.

My cell phone: (512) 993-7305.

My current home phone: (801) 355-0850.


Thank you in advance for your prompt and very thorough reply letter to me in response to this follow-up request for information from myself.


Sincerely and Best Wishes,

Requestor John Kevin McMillan, 535 South 200 East, Apt. 912, Ninth Floor, Salt Lake City, UT 84111.
