RE: My Public Information Request
STATE of TEXAS v ERIC V. MITCHEL, District Court m
CASE No. 1381867-1

I received the corr^pondence dated August 28,2017, which is in r^ponse to my Letter of Inquiry
dated August 18,2017. Your letter (response) quotes Vemon's Texas Code Annotated §552.028 (a)
(1) and (2). Upon further examination into §552.028 section (b), it states:

"This section dora not prohibit a governmental body from disclosing to
an individual described by Subsection (a) (1), or that individual's
agent, information held by the government body pertaining to that
individual."

Therefore, by the wording of Subsection (b) it clearlystates that the governmental body can release
information, including public information, to the individual listed in (a) (1) being an inmate
incarcerated as long as it pertains to that individual. Allthe information requested in the "Letter
of Inquiiy" pertains to ERIC V. MITCHEL (the accused). So, I request that this information be
fakfln into consideration, and the "Letter of Inquiry" be carried out and any and all information
requested in the "Letter of Inquiry" be provided.

Again, thanking yon in advance,

IN Re § IN THE TEXAS COURT
§
§ OF
§
ERIC V. MITCHEL § CRIMINAL APPEALS

MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE AN APPLICATION

WRIT OF MANDAMUS

TO THE HONORABLE JUDGE OF SAID COURT:

Comes now, Eric V. Mitchel, relator in the above numbered cause. Pursuant to this court's original
jurisdiction, Relator prose submits this Motion For Leave To File an Application Writ of
Mandamus, and in support of this motion relator wUl show the court the following:

Generally, Mandamus Reliefis available if the trial court violates a duty imposed by law or clearly
abuses its discretion, either in resolving factual issues or in determining legal issues, when there is
no adequate remedy at law. Citing In re Moreno, 4 S.W-3d 278 (Tex. App. Houston [14*'' Dist.]
1999).

At trial Court abuses its discretion, and Mandamus may thus issue, when it does not follow guiding
rules and principles and reaches an arbitrary and unreasonable decision. In re Nestle USA-
Beverage Div.. Inc.. 82 S.W.3d 767 (Tex. App. - Corpus Christi 2002).

A trial Court abuses its discretion, and Mandamus may thus issue, in the following ways: (1) when
it attempts to exercise a powerthat it does not legally possess. (2) if it declines to exercise a powerof
discretion vested in it by law when the circumstances require that the power be exercised. (3) if it
purports to exercise its discretion without sufBcient information upon which a rational decision
may be made, and (4) If it exercises its power of discretion by making an erroneous choice as a
matter of law in the following way (i) by making a choice that is not within the range of choices
permitted by law, (ii) by arriving at its choice in violation of an applicable legal rule, principle, or
criterion, or (iii) by making a choice that is legally unreasonable in the factual-legal context in
which it is made. In re Nestle USA - Beverage Div.. Inc. 82 S. W.3d 767 (Tex. App. - Corpus Christi
2002); Tn re Gncrra. 235 S.W.3d 392 (Tex. App. —Corpus Christi 2007).

Mandamus issues only to correct a clear abuse of discretion or a violation of a duty imposed by law
when there is no other adequate remedy; In re Guerra. 235 S. W.3d 392 (Tex. App. - Corpus
Christi 2007).
n

On August 18, 2017, Relator sent a letter of Inquiry to the District Attorney's office for Tarrant
County Texas, Requesting Certified copies of any contract upon which the state rely in the
presumption that the Relator ever waived his unalienable Rights and agreed with Full Disclosure
and knowledge that Relator ever agreed to be treated as a colorable person under military rule.
Certified copies of the instrument (s) upon which the state rely in State Of Texas prosecution of
Relator.

See (EXHIBIT -A, Letter of Inquiry attached).

m

On August 25, 2017, The District Attorney responded in a short memo which did not satisfy
Relator's request See (EXHIBIT - B, Respondent's Rely attached).
IV

Relator states that on November 13, 2017, that he sent a packet with all information that was
possessed through this Letter of Inquiry to the Court to consider and bring forward said
information listed in the Letter of Inquiry. See (EXHIBIT - C, copies of all information sent to
court, the 2"^ District Court of Tarrant CountyTexas).

Relator contends that since the trial court took no action and basicaUy ignored the Letter of
Inquiry and took no actions on the production of the documents that is being requested, that
Relator has no other adequate Remedy at law, and the Request is indisputable.
VI

To obtain Mandamus Reliefwith respect to judicial conduct, a Relator must show (1) a clear right
to relief usually when a judicial conduct in question violates a ministerial duty, and (2) noadequate
remedy at law to redress thealleged harm. State ExRel. Rodriguez v.Marquez. 4 S.W.3d 227 (Tex.
Crim. Add. 1999).

To be eligible for Mandamus Relief to compel the performance of a ministerial act, the Relator
must have a clear and indisputable legal right to the relief sought, such that its merits are beyond
dispute, and thus, the law must clearly spell out the duly to be performed with such certainty that
that nothing is leftto the exercise of discretion ofjudgment. Relator has a clear right to the Relief
sought. Hill v. Court of Appeals for FifthDist., 34 S.W.3d 924 (Tex. Crim.App. 2001).

VH

WHEREFORE PREMISES CONSIDERED, Relator prays that this Texas Court of Criminal
Appeals grant this Writ of Mandamus and grant him the relief that is requested and any other
relief that the Court deems necessary and just.
Respectfully Submitted,

Eric V. Mitchel - Relator
