Father had earned both his Bachelor's Degree and his Master's Degree at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City.Utah House Majority Leader Schultz, I learned today through online research that numerous respective states in our western region of the USA currently benefit greatly from annual compilation of a statewide or multi-county regional almanac for the state that is sponsored either directly by their state government, such as by their State Library or their state's Office of the Secretary of State state agency, or by a college, or by a news media company in that state.I hope that the online links (below) that I obtained today will help to promote dialogue among members of your Utah State House of Representatives and other government employees in Utah, librarians in Utah, educators in Utah, news media professionals and authors and book publishers in Utah, businesses throughout Utah, Chambers of Commerce employees throughout Utah, and civic groups in Utah about how our great state can get the truly authoritative and factually accurate regularly updated online and hard-bound "Utah Almanac" that we Utahns richly deserve.Sincerely and Best Wishes,permanently alcohol-free (ever since 1990) and lifelong-tobacco-free very anti-marijuana-minded single adult white male British-German-American, lifelong American citizen, Nebraska native, and permanent Utahn resident John Kevin McMillan.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.

Attorney General of Texas Today Sends Me Friendly Official ID Number for my Current Open Records Complaint Against the Open Records Coordinator for Travis County District Attorney's Office in Austin, Texas
I was informed by e-mail today that I have been assigned an official complaint number on my current Open Records complaint through the Attorney General of Texas against the Public Information Coordinator for the Travis County District Attorney's Office in Austin, Texas
My complaint is that the Travis County DA's Office failed to provide me with any reply letter in response to my November 30, 2023, Open Records request to that county government agency.
The November 30 public information request of mine had sought "a copy of any and all documents on file with each applicable division or unit of your DA's Office that were each authored by someone other than me at any time since 9 a.m. January 1, 2021, and which each stated that I myself was or am victimized by a felony crime."

A respectful FYI to each of you on the following exactly quoted highlights from this hard-copy December 21, 2023-dated and five-page Texas Attorney General's Office official Open Records Ruling reply letter on official Texas Attorney General's Office letterhead stationery. The ruling letter was primarily addressed to Travis County (TX) Assistant County Attorney Matthew Entsminger in Austin, Texas. The official ruling letter was written by Texas Assistant Attorney General Paige Lay of the Open Records Division of the Attorney General of Texas state agency in Austin.
This Wednesday night, December 27, 2023, I as the public information requestor in this cited Texas Open Records case received a courtesy carbon-copy of the above-cited reply letter in my designated first-floor mailbox for my current fully locked and bolt-locked solo-occupancy Ninth Floor rental apartment unit inside an 11-story HUD-subsidized senior citizens apartment complex in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah.
The official reply letter, below, with exactly quoted highlights from that letter being provided here by me, is apparently in regard to my September 28, 2023-identified e-mail Open Records Request (last item, below) to the Travis County District Attorney's Office in Austin, Texas. That September 28 request from me had sought:
"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....
"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."

"You ask whether certain information is subject to required public disclosure under the Public Information Act (the 'Act'), chapter 552 of the Government Code. Your request was assigned ID # 23-099189 (ORR 1161224-1).
"The Travis County District Attorney's Office (the 'district attorney's office') received a request for information pertaining to the requestor during a specified period of time. You state some information will be released. You claim the submitted information is excepted from disclosure under sections 552.107, 552.108, and 552.111 of the Government Code. We have considered the exceptions you claim and reviewed the submitted information.(Footnote)1...(Footnote)1 We assume the 'representative sample' of records submitted to this office is truly representative of the requested records as a whole. See Open Records Decision Nos. 499 (1988), 497 (1988).

"You state the information you marked consists of communications between and among attorneys and employees of the district attorney's office that were
made for the purpose of facilitating the rendition of professional legal services to the district attorney's office. You also state these communications were intended to be and have remained confidential. Based upon your representations and our review, we find you have demonstrated the applicability of the attorney-client privilege to some of the communications at issue. Accordingly, with the exception of the information we marked for release, the district attorney's office may withhold the information it marked under section 552.107(1) of the Government Code. However, we find you have failed to demonstrate the remaining information at issue consists of privileged attorney-client communications. Therefore, the district attorney's office may not withhold any of the remaining information at issue on that basis.
"Section 552.108(a)(2) of the Government Code excepts from disclosure information concerning
an investigation that did not result in conviction or deferred adjudication. Gov't Code 552.108(a)(2). A governmental body claiming section 552.108(a)(2) must demonstrate the requested information relates to a criminal investigation that has concluded in a final result other than a conviction or a deferred adjudication. See id. 552.301(e)(1)(A); Open Records Decision No. 434 (1986). Upon review, we find you have failed to demonstrate the information relates to a criminal investigation that concluded in a final result other than a conviction or deferred adjudication; thus, the district attorney's office may not withhold the information it marked under section 552.108(a)(2)....
"Gov't Code 552.108(a)(4), (b)(3). A governmental body must explain how and why section 552.108 is applicable to the information at issue. See id. 552.108, .301(e)(1)(A); see also Ex parte Pruitt, 551 S.W .2d 706 (Tex. 1977). Upon review, we find you have failed to demonstrate how the information at issue reflects the mental processes or legal reasoning of an attorney representing the state. Therefore, we find you have failed to demonstrate how the remaining information at issue is protected by sections 552.108(a)(4) and 552.108(b)(3), and the district attorney's office may not withhold any portion of it under section 552.108 of the Government Code.
"Section 552.111 of the Government Code excepts from disclosure 'an interagency or intraagency memorandum or letter that would not be available by law to a party in litigation with the agency.' See Gov't Code 552.111. This section encompasses the attorney work product privilege found in rule 192.5 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure. City of Garland v. Dallas Morning News, 22 S.W .3d 351, 360 (Tex. 2000); Open Records Decision No. 677 at 4-8 (2002). Rule 192.5 defines work product as:...
"You generally argue section 552.111 of the Government Code is applicable to the remaining information you marked. Upon review, we find you failed to establish the information at issue consists of material prepared, mental impressions developed, or a communication made in anticipation of litigation or for trial by or for the district attorney's office or representatives of the district attorney's office. Therefore, the district attorney's office may not withhold any portion of the remaining information as attorney work product under section 552.111 of the Government Code....
"Section 552.137 of the Government Code provides, 'an e-mail address of a member of the public that is provided for the purpose of communicating electronically with a government body is confidential under (the Act),' unless the owner of the e-mail address has affirmatively consented to its release or the e-mail is specifically excluded by subsection (c). Gov't Code 552.137(a)-(c)....
"In summary, with the exception of the information we marked for release, the district attorney's office may withhold the information it marked under section 552.107(1) of the Government Code. To the extent the e-mail addresses within the remaining information belong to members of the public and are not excluded by subsection 552.137(c) of the Government Code, the district attorney's office must withhold such e-mail addresses under section 552.137 of the Government Code, unless the individuals to whom the e-mail addresses belong affirmatively consent to their release. The remaining information must be released.
"This letter ruling is limited to the particular information at issue in this request and limited to the facts as presented to us; this ruling must not be relied upon as a previous determination regarding any other information or any other circumstances....

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,

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.

Subject: How to Exclude Convicts From Our UT Personal Life?
December 27, 2023
Dear Utah State House Majority Leader Mike Schultz,
Best Wishes to you and your relatives and friends and colleagues this Holiday Season.
In response to your greatly appreciated December 6, 2023, reply letter to me in which you invited me to share concerns of mine with yourself, I would like to offer you this additional brainstorming letter:
----I am concerned about the possibility that vigilant and law-abiding permanently alcohol-free, lifelong tobacco-free single adult white male private citizens and American citizens in Utah, I among those honorable Utahns and American citizens, are currently hindered in their (and in my own) goal of limiting their (my) off-duty social life to other law-abiding American citizens who, like themselves (or myself, in my case), do not have any criminal-conviction record.
The barrier in achieving that personal goal in my own off-duty life may have been caused in part by recent Utah Legislature action that may have approved expungement or removal of numerous types of criminal convictions from Utahns' criminal- conviction records.
During my leisuretime here in Salt Lake City, Utah, when I meet a new prospective personal friend or new prospective dating partner for myself or new prospective personal acquaintance for myself, the individual I am meeting with in person is currently apparently authorized to assure me that "I (the new acquaintance) do not have any criminal- conviction record". He or she is apparently not required by law to volunteer to me that one or more criminal convictions he or she previously incurred have been expunged or removed from their own record with official approval from the State Government of Utah.
As I'm sure you are very aware, Utah House Majority Leader Schultz, many law-abiding American citizen Utahns each year are victimized by "personal friends" or "personal acquaintances" or "friendly neighbors" of theirs in Utah whose criminal background and criminal intent had been withheld from themselves. The first-rate non-fiction television series "Forensic Files" on a year-round basis profiles shocking cases in which the victim until the moment of the violent crime that injured or murdered themselves had regarded the perpetrator as being "an honorable friend" or "trusted and kind neighbor".
I am concerned that expungements of criminal records that have apparently occurred here in Utah are leaving truly honorable and law-abiding Utahns such as myself "in the dark", so to speak, when each of us attempts to pursue online research in order to simply confirm a prospective personal "friend's" status as an honorable Utahn with no criminal-conviction record, and specifically no criminal conviction that was ever expunged.
----I am concerned about the likelihood that many of the violent conflicts that occur between crime suspects and police officers in Utah were triggered by the suspect's prior knowledge that "there is a warrant out for my own arrest".
Many of the crime suspects apparently resist arrest because they believe that "if the cops arrest me, it will ruin my life or be fatal to me---so I have nothing to lose from refusing to cooperate with the arresting officer". The decision by the suspect to physically assault the arresting officer is apparently based on the suspect's mistaken perception that if the suspect injures or immobilizes the police officer, that officer would simply "give up" on attempting to arrest the suspect, so the suspect could then somehow "escape arrest", the suspect apparently believes.
State House Majority Leader Schultz, I am sharing this concern of mine in the hope that some new state law here in Utah might help, such as an Automatic Felony Crime Conviction against any crime suspect in Utah who has a warrant out for his arrest and then resists arrest of himself by a police officer here in Utah.
-----In view of the increased risk here in Utah of violence against police officers by desperate or hostile crime suspects with a warrant out for their arrest, I hope the Utah House will be willing to authorize state funding for an in-depth new study that identifies the gender, racial and ethnic and religious identity, state or nation of birth, nation of citizenship, socioeconomic status, drug or alcohol or tobacco or vaping addiction, if applicable, affiliation with organized crime, if applicable, and repeat offender status, if applicable, of each suspect with a warrant out for his or her arrest.
The proposed new study in Utah might help identify strategies for reducing the level of violence toward Utahn police officers by suspects with warrants out for their arrest----- and for INCREASING crime suspects' level of cooperation with an arresting law enforcement officer here in Utah.
----I may have mentioned this to you already, but I am concerned about the possibility that the Utah Department of Public Safety state law enforcement agency may not currently specifically label as such any and all "Road Rage"-related crimes that occur here in Utah. It is crucial toward deterrence of Road Rage crimes here in Utah that the DPS database offer law enforcement officers full and immediate access to specific statistics and specific factual reports about each and every Road Rage crime that ever occurs in our state.
In view of a current or expected future increase here in Utah in the number of Pedestrian Rage incidents or Scooter Rage incidents or Motorcyclist Rage incidents or Moped Rider Rage Incidents, should the Utah House also require that the Utah DPS data bases be programmed to specifically compile Road Rage statistics under specific categories such as Automobile Driver Road Rage, Truck Driver Road Rage, Pedestrian Road Rage, Scooter Road Rage, Motorcycle Road Rage, or Moped Driver Road Rage?
---I am concerned about the possibility that a high percentage of Utahns of today may not be covered by a Catastrophic Illness Health Insurance policy or "Catastrophic Home Collapse" Home Insurance policy that offers adequate coverage to those Utahns when they are subjected to a Catastrophic Injury or Catastrophic Collapse of their own home here in our state.
It likely that Catastrophic Injuries and major damage to or destruction of homes in Utah play a major role in the decision by many Utahns each year to file for personal bankruptcy or professional bankruptcy in our state.
Should the Utah House approve new legislation that makes it easier or more affordable for Utahns to obtain Catastrophic Insurance policies for themselves and their spouse or children?
----I am concerned about the possibility that the Utah Legislature possibly has not done enough to fully protect any and all Utahn employers' legal right here in Utah to REFUSE to hire any job applicant with profane or obscene graffiti or gang-related graffiti or criminal-intent-confessions graffiti on their own arm or fingers or face or forehead or neck or upper chest, or on any other part of the applicant's body that would be visible if that prospective new employee got hired and wore a uniform while on duty inside or at that new workplace for himself in Utah.
House Majority Leader Mike Schultz, I hope this additional public policy-minded brainstorming letter is helpful to you and your other hard-working and idealistic colleagues in the Utah House of Representatives of the Utah State Legislature.

Subject: How to Exclude Convicts From Our UT Personal Life?
December 27, 2023
Dear Utah State House Majority Leader Mike Schultz,
Best Wishes to you and your relatives and friends and colleagues this Holiday Season.
In response to your greatly appreciated December 6, 2023, reply letter to me in which you invited me to share concerns of mine with yourself, I would like to offer you this additional brainstorming letter:
----I am concerned about the possibility that vigilant and law-abiding permanently alcohol-free, lifelong tobacco-free single adult white male private citizens and American citizens in Utah, I among those honorable Utahns and American citizens, are currently hindered in their (and in my own) goal of limiting their (my) off-duty social life to other law-abiding American citizens who, like themselves (or myself, in my case), do not have any criminal-conviction record.
The barrier in achieving that personal goal in my own off-duty life may have been caused in part by recent Utah Legislature action that may have approved expungement or removal of numerous types of criminal convictions from Utahns' criminal- conviction records.
During my leisuretime here in Salt Lake City, Utah, when I meet a new prospective personal friend or new prospective dating partner for myself or new prospective personal acquaintance for myself, the individual I am meeting with in person is currently apparently authorized to assure me that "I (the new acquaintance) do not have any criminal- conviction record". He or she is apparently not required by law to volunteer to me that one or more criminal convictions he or she previously incurred have been expunged or removed from their own record with official approval from the State Government of Utah.
As I'm sure you are very aware, Utah House Majority Leader Schultz, many law-abiding American citizen Utahns each year are victimized by "personal friends" or "personal acquaintances" or "friendly neighbors" of theirs in Utah whose criminal background and criminal intent had been withheld from themselves. The first-rate non-fiction television series "Forensic Files" on a year-round basis profiles shocking cases in which the victim until the moment of the violent crime that injured or murdered themselves had regarded the perpetrator as being "an honorable friend" or "trusted and kind neighbor".
I am concerned that expungements of criminal records that have apparently occurred here in Utah are leaving truly honorable and law-abiding Utahns such as myself "in the dark", so to speak, when each of us attempts to pursue online research in order to simply confirm a prospective personal "friend's" status as an honorable Utahn with no criminal-conviction record, and specifically no criminal conviction that was ever expunged.
----I am concerned about the likelihood that many of the violent conflicts that occur between crime suspects and police officers in Utah were triggered by the suspect's prior knowledge that "there is a warrant out for my own arrest".
Many of the crime suspects apparently resist arrest because they believe that "if the cops arrest me, it will ruin my life or be fatal to me---so I have nothing to lose from refusing to cooperate with the arresting officer". The decision by the suspect to physically assault the arresting officer is apparently based on the suspect's mistaken perception that if the suspect injures or immobilizes the police officer, that officer would simply "give up" on attempting to arrest the suspect, so the suspect could then somehow "escape arrest", the suspect apparently believes.
