Dear Sirs,
There is a concerning precedent being set with the Nueces County JP Courts and specifically the Precinct 2 Place 2 Court Located in Flour Bluff ISD. Any objections or contesting of legal issues are first reacted to in “a playing of ignorance” and ADA’s pick the file up and retreat to a back room for “legal advice”. What is interesting from a layman’s perspective is whom did the ADA confer with in the back room? After all, the Republican JP is not a “Legally Trained” member of the Texas Bar Association but he does pack a Political Agenda. So why would an Attorney be asking a non-attorney for “Legal Advice”? Any citing of the Texas Statutes are vehemently disallowed as the intimidation tactics of pointing fingers, threats of going to jail and the filing of extraneous charges materialize. Most any average citizen would defer and succumb, but to their astonishment this was not the case for one family who stood up and called their bluff.
Initially, in October 8, 2006 the family lost their patriarch and the children were devastated. The children were out of school all except for one day that week and the parents turned in an excuse. On October 16, 2006 charges were filed for Non-attendance and Parent contributing to non-attendance. Any absences occurring after October 16, 2006 are excluded (by law) as evidence for this particular case filed on October 16, 2006. The calculations are in error as the record inaccurately reflects the absences as unexcused when in fact the written excuses were submitted in a timely manner and are verifiable. It is possibly a simple error however, it lingers uncorrected.
In the case filed on October 16, 2006 satisfactory attendance evidence has been demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Superintendent Scott Eliff (*statement to be submitted in evidence). Also the statements made in writing by King High School Assistant Principal Lisa Trevino are in violation of the Civil Rights afforded to all Americans as the statement demonstrates retaliation by a KHS Administrator for pleading NOT GUILTY to the allegations made on October 16, 2006. (**To be submitted into evidence). Is it the norm to claim a student in non-compliance with attendance policies simply because he pleaded NOT GUILTY? Furthermore, is not it a violation of one’s Civil Rights to claim a student in non-compliance with attendance policies simply because he pleaded NOT GUILTY?
