October 18, 2023
Dear Travis County District Attorney's Office Open Records Unit Representatives Ramiro Gonzalez and Sara Guerra Winn in Austin, Texas,
I have been a bit surprised to note that I apparently did not receive a courtesy reply note from either of you this week.
I had respectfully posed one total question to your Open Records Unit in my October 14, 2023, reply letter (below) to you. That letter I wrote and sent to you was in response to your October 12, 2023, official Open Records Request Reply letter (below) to me.
The October 14 follow-up question of mine was:
"Do any of the legal documents you seek permission from the Attorney General of Texas to withhold from me refer to any pending or current or previous criminal-law charges against me or any cited criminal-law convictions in which I myself was cited as having been a defendant?"
I hope to soon hear from an official representative for your Travis County District Attorney's Office Open Records Unit in response to the one total polite follow-up question I posed to you in writing on October 14.
Sincerely and Best Wishes,
requestor John Kevin McMillan, 535 South 200 East, Apt. 912, Ninth Floor, Salt Lake City, UT 84111.
My cell phone: (512) 993-7305.
My home phone: (802) 355-0850.
My date of birth: 4-27-1957. I was born in Lincoln, Nebraska.

Dear Travis County District Attorney's Office Open Records Unit Representatives Ramiro Gonzalez and Sara Guerra Winn in Austin, Texas,
Thank you for the October 12, 2023, e-mail reply letter (below) that Mr Ramirez wrote and sent to me.
Your letter referred to and included an attached October 12, 2023-dated, four-page signed legal letter on behalf of your DA's Office in Austin to Texas Attorney General's Office Open Records Division Chief Justin Gordon.
In that legal letter, which I have reviewed, Travis County Attorney's Office Assistant County Attorney Matthew Entsminger in Austin, Texas, cited numerous or dozens of legal documents referring to me or relating to me that the Travis County District Attorney's Office seeks to withhold from me.
One polite follow-up question: Do any of the legal documents you seek permission from the Attorney General of Texas to withhold from me refer to any pending or current or previous criminal-law charges against me or any cited criminal-law convictions in which I myself was cited as having been a defendant?
As I am sure you are very aware, I take great pride in leading a very honorable, very benevolent, psychologically healthy, dependably civil and law-abiding and conscientious and very honest and vigilant, permanently alcohol-free (ever since 1990), lifelong tobacco-free and very anti-tobacco, lifelong-non-vaping, permanently-jewelry-less, non-sadomasochistic and anti-S&M, lifelong-tattoo-less, consistently clean-talking and non-profane, facially cleanshaven, pro-law enforcement lifestyle.
I might add that I am strictly monoracial and American-citizen-focused (my own racial group and nationality group being white non-Hispanic persons and American citizens, respectively) in my own eventual romantic dating life in my current city of residence of Salt Lake City, Utah.
I myself do not have any criminal conviction record. I am gainfully employed by two total respective employers--- they being very honorable and law-abiding corporate-owned or franchise-owned restaurant locations in Murray, Utah, and Salt Lake City, Utah, respectively.
Mr. Ramirez and Ms. Guerra Winn and your Open Records Unit colleagues in Austin,, Texas, thank you in advance for your friendly reply letter to me in response to this one total follow-up question.
Sincerely and Best Wishes,
requestor John Kevin McMillan, 535 South 200 East, Apt..912, Ninth Floor, Salt Lake City, UT 84111.

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.

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