Hello Mrs. Gibbs,
1) Regarding this court ordered mental evaluation (enc.), would it be possible for the court providing me with the names of those having questioned my mental competency and the evidence presented?
2) Also the court needs to be informed that my Arkansan family are not even aware, as far as I know, of anything that has transpired here in Atlanta since March of 2014 when I began refusing all contact with my Mother; even though everything (court hearings, progressive hearing loss, acute blindness right eye, relapse of the crystal meths addiction, suspected pituitary 'macroadenoma' mass, available cash) posted up to my blogs. That I would rather they, having had their chance, still be kept out of this considering it will all continued to be posted to my blogs.
3) As far as me being able assisting counsel in locating and examining relevant witnesses, do you have any suggestion as to whom you believe might be relevant witnesses based on what you've heard from me so far? Personally, there are many I would love to have subpoenaed; e.g. James Wagner (see attached photos)would be awesome! Another one would be the retired Magistrate Judge Ayers Gardner who lives just around the corner from me yet I have never met her that I am aware. She continues to believe my sock monkeys hanging by their necks are racially motivated; even though I have explained them to enough people already. There is no excuse except perniciousness and prevarications...congeniality bias!
Enough for this email since I have yet to hear from you regarding what I am to do next since having received this Court Ordered For Mental Evaluation Regarding Competency To Stand Trial?
Sincerely yours,
James E. Avery, D.V.M.
