Today, October 29, 2014, is my deadline for petitioning the
United States Supreme Court. With the
help of my mother and brother, to which there are no words to
describe their ongoing love and support, I was able to send the finished product off to
the publisher yesterday so my Petition
for a Writ of Certiorari will be properly sent and served to the Office of
the Indiana Attorney General and the Supreme Court of the United States of
America by the end of the day today (Click here for a copy of the petition without appendix). The following excerpt is my closing
statement from the Petition:
"The Petitioner made every effort to preserve his rights
under the United States Constitution in a criminal action that was brought
against Petitioner in retaliation for Petitioner’s criticisms of court
officials. The Petitioner files his pro se writ of certiorari after being
subjected to outrageous bonds, denial of counsel, and serving 2.5 years in
prison because a prosecutor was able to obtain unconstitutional general conduct
indictments and convictions by implementing a constitutionally invalid legal
argument. The Indiana Supreme Court found that Petitioner’s alleged psychological
disturbance was circumstantial evidence toward the commission of a crime yet
the trial judge and public defender who both work out of the Rush County,
Indiana Courthouse, failed to provide Petitioner with any mental health
treatment or psychological evaluations in preparation of an effective defense.
As Justice Rush and the Indiana Supreme Court have already stated the
Petitioner’s guilty conviction is a general verdict error, it would be a
miscarriage of justice not to reverse his convictions. The most telling
evidence that the Petitioner’s internet writings enjoy First Amendment
protections is the fact that no court of law has attempted to force the
Petitioner to remove what the Indiana Courts deem to be hidden threats of
violence. Petitioner’s experiences are still available at www.danhelpskids.com and www.danbrewington.blogspot.com.
Not having the freedom to criticize the conduct of court officials or living in
fear of criticizing the conduct described in this brief would be the ultimate
injustice."
The Office of the Indiana Attorney General has 30 days to
respond. If the Indiana Attorney General, Gregory Zoeller, files a response, I
will post a copy as soon as possible. I
cannot say enough about the love and support I have received from so many
during this entire experience. Thank
you.
[Please note that I did not receive any outside legal advice
in any state on this petition nor did I receive any assistance in writing the
Writ of Certiorari aside from the help I received from my “law clerks” (mom and
brother).]
