Dear Travis County District Attorney's Office Open Records Coordinator,


 


This is a follow-up Open Records request in which I seek to obtain from you a copy of any and all 


e-mails or other  documents written or generated at any time since 8:01 a.m. January 17, 2023,


by your DA's Office in Austin, Texas,  during attorney Jose Garza's current tenure as the DA that referred to a legal action or administrative action pursued by, an investigation or interview pursued by, an active  case number,  or a criminal charge filed in a court of law by,


the Travis County District Attorney's Office in a context that, in each such case, related to me  as a cited criminal-law complainant  or cited crime victim or directly  referred to me in any manner or context.





This follow-up request for information was prompted in part by your March 10,  2023, e-mail disclosure (farther below) to me--- in response to my January 16, 2023-generated e-mail request for information focused on me--- that DA Jose Garza himself wrote and sent an e-mail about me on January 3, 2021:


 -"From: Jose Garza <Jose.Garza@traviscountytx.gov>


"Sent: Sunday, January 3, 2021 8:58:49 AM

"To: Trudy Strassburger <Trudy.Strassburger@traviscountytx.gov>

"Subject: Fwd: [CAUTION EXTERNAL] 1-2-2021 urgent question for new District Attorney Jose Garza


"Eventually for Henry."


Legal notes authored  by an official or  staff member in your DA's Office in Austin during Jose Garza's tenure there  as DA   also included  the following  exactly quoted  statement in regard to me---with the date of that statement not being apparent to me--- that was cited as having been  responsive to my January 16, 2023-generated request: 

"Can we assign Erin and a VW counselor?"

Good morning, Mr. McMillan,


 


Please see the attached in response to your request below.


 


 


Thank you,

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.
