Transcript
- 0:01Good morning everybody. Happy Super Friday.
- 0:03Welcome to TCF Live. My name is Dan Sowell.
- 0:05I'll be your guide through the next 4 hour journey through
- 0:08Cortlandia. But unfortunately there's not a
- 0:11whole lot going on yet this morning.
- 0:14This is typical on a Friday. So we're going to start in the
- 0:16way back machine. This is Judge Elmore from
- 0:18yesterday. Judge, what we had discussed was
- 0:24dismissing counts 1. 2-3 and eight.
- 0:28And he would plead to Count 4, which is absconding from
- 0:31supervision. Count 5-6 and seven are
- 0:35violations of criminal law, and those correlate to criminal
- 0:40convictions that he had in North Carolina.
- 0:42So or plead misdemeanor buses. So dismiss 123 and 8, plead to
- 0:51456 and seven. All right, all right, good.
- 0:58OK. Mr. Farve, is that what you want
- 1:00to do today? Yes, you're on.
- 1:02Please raise your right hand the best you can.
- 1:04Do you swear or affirm the information and testimony about
- 1:06the box? I'll be the truth.
- 1:07Whole truth. But the truth.
- 1:08Yes, Your Honor. You may lower your hand.
- 1:10Mr. Farve, do you need me to go over what all these seven, all
- 1:15these 8 counts are again? Yes.
- 1:17Sir, no problem. I'll do it, and I'll tell you
- 1:23which ones. I anticipate are going to be.
- 1:25Dismissed. And pled 2 through.
- 1:28Count 1 alleges that contrary to condition 4.20, which requires
- 1:35that you must not use any weapon, it's alleged that not or
- 1:38about 11th of November 13th of 2016 you possessed and or used a
- 1:45weapon or imitation of a weapon. That count will be dismissed.
- 1:49Count 2 is an an alleged violation of Rule 3 that
- 1:53requires you must not leave the state without permission and
- 1:56more specifically that on or about August 11th of 2015 you
- 2:01left the State of Michigan. That one will be dismissed.
- 2:04Count 3 is a charge of violating condition 2.4 that requires that
- 2:08you must not use or possess any controlled substance or drug
- 2:11paraphernalia and more specifically that on or about
- 2:14August 5th of 2020 you possess cocaine.
- 2:18That one will be dismissed. Count 4 is an violation, I'm
- 2:24sorry, an alleged violation of Rule 3 which requires to make a
- 2:27people report to your probation officer as directed and more
- 2:30specifically that on or about August 11th of 2015 you failed
- 2:35to report and you weren't you weren't an absconder status that
- 2:40could have been initially a technical violation, but based
- 2:43upon its more than 60 days to say non-technical, the
- 2:48difference between non-technical and technicals.
- 2:50I'll explain in just a moment, but I'm told you're going to
- 2:52plead guilty to that one. Count 5 is an allegation to
- 2:55violate a Rule 1, which is not to violate any criminal law of
- 2:59any unit government. And more specifically that on or
- 3:01about November 13th of 2016, you've possessed A firearm as a
- 3:06felon, that one you. Would plead guilty to.
- 3:09That also is a non-technical count. 6 is another alleged
- 3:14violation of Rule 1, which again requires you not to violate any
- 3:18criminal law of any Union government.
- 3:19And again, that honor about November 2016, you caused
- 3:24malicious damage to property belonging to a person named Mark
- 3:27Juan Sharp. Sharp is SHRSHARPE.
- 3:33That is also one to which you're going to plead guilty to is the
- 3:36system. I'm told that is also a
- 3:39non-technical count. 7 is another allegation of violating
- 3:43Rule 1 not to violate any criminal law of any Union
- 3:46government and more specific. That.
- 3:48On or about November 13th of 2016 you committed an assault
- 3:52and or battery upon Mark Von Sharp with a weapon.
- 3:56That one you will be pleading guilty to, and that one?
- 3:59Will. Also be a non-technical
- 4:02violation. And lastly, Count 8 which will
- 4:05be dismissed is a violation again of Rule 1, not to violate
- 4:10any criminal law of any unity government and that on or about
- 4:13August 5th of 2020 you sold cocaine to another individual.
- 4:20Again, that one will be dismissed.
- 4:23If you enter a plea of guilty today, you'll not have a
- 4:25contested hearing. You'll be given up the right to
- 4:29have the prosecutor prove the allegations by a components.
- 4:32Of the evidence, which is a. Lower standard of burden of
- 4:34proof than, say, proof beyond a reasonable doubt at a criminal
- 4:37trial. You'll be awaiting the right to
- 4:40question and cross examine any witnesses she presents.
- 4:43You'll be giving up the right to present witnesses, evidence, or
- 4:45testimony in response to that. You'd also be giving up the
- 4:48right to remain silent and not have that silence used against
- 4:50you. Also, based upon the original
- 4:53plea in this case, any appeal would be done by filing an
- 4:55application. For a lead to appeal.
- 4:57And not a claim of appeal by right.
- 5:00You'll also be given up the right to claim that the pleas
- 5:02today will be the result of any other promises, corrections,
- 5:04inducements, not told me today on the record.
- 5:07Have there been any other promises, corrections,
- 5:09inducements? And has anybody made any
- 5:13promises to you as to exactly what this sentence would be from
- 5:15this court? Have you had?
- 5:18Time to talk with Mr. Harrison about your rights and options
- 5:21and so forth. And are you satisfied with his
- 5:24advice? He's been available to you and
- 5:25all that. All right.
- 5:26Good. Thank you.
- 5:27And again, because they are non-technical violations, the
- 5:36court's not limited to a sliding scale that only applies to
- 5:38technical violations and therefore the court only limited
- 5:42by the amount allowed under the law.
- 5:44In this particular case, you were convicted of a charge of
- 5:47assault resist obstructed police officer, which is a felony but
- 5:51will buy up to two years and or up to $2000.
- 5:56It's a bit of a misnomer. Even though there's a maximum
- 5:59punishment of up to two years. Michigan has a 2/3 rule means
- 6:04the motion to get would be 2/3 of those two years, but that
- 6:08would require a prison term. I'm told while it's still up to
- 6:12me that that side is not going to ask for prison.
- 6:16OK. Do you still wish Senator will
- 6:18please today as we talked about, yes, Sir.
- 6:20Do you have any questions of your counsel or of me before I
- 6:23take the police? Ask 2, Counts 456 and 7, how do
- 6:30you plead for the court can accept that plea?
- 6:33I'm going to ask you some questions.
- 6:35And before I do that, I'm going to take traditional notice of
- 6:39the terms and conditions that are contained here in the file
- 6:42that were signed by my predecessor, the animal judge,
- 6:45William Fagerman. And looks like he signed them on
- 6:52or about November 16th of 2013. And then you acknowledge them on
- 6:57December 12th of 2013. So for Count 4 back in August,
- 7:04on August 11th, 2015, is it true that you absconded from
- 7:08probation and stop reporting? OK.
- 7:11And as to Count 5, is it true that on August 13th of 2016 as a
- 7:17felony who possessed A firearm and at that time we were also on
- 7:22probation so you couldn't possess one for that reason?
- 7:25And for count 6, is it also true that I'm or about that same date
- 7:28of November 13th of 2016, you damaged some property belonging
- 7:33to this individual named Markwan Sharp?
- 7:36What kind of property? Wasn't it?
- 7:38The vehicle and where were you when these things occurred?
- 7:41North Carolina, OK. Where in North Carolina?
- 7:45Morehead City. OK, well, that's it.
- 7:49That's OK. North Carolina is great.
- 7:51Asheville would be better. Brevard.
- 7:53Those are big mountain biking communities.
- 7:56Is it also true that for count 7 that on that same date of
- 8:00November 13th of 2016, you assaulted Mark Juan Sharp with a
- 8:05weapon? Tell me about that.
- 8:07What did you do to commit an assault and or battery with a
- 8:10weapon? He he ended up threatening to
- 8:13jump me so I just hit him with some weapon.
- 8:17And did he have any? Weapon at that time.
- 8:19Not that I know of, OK. So therefore he you might have
- 8:23had some self-defense issues, but you were meeting non deadly
- 8:27force with deadly force. And what kind of weapon was it?
- 8:30There's like a. Like a pole.
- 8:33Like a little. PVC pole.
- 8:35Oh, OK. Yeah.
- 8:37But all right, Miss Dole, do you believe he's provided factual
- 8:42basis of support, please, for Counts 456 and seven?
- 8:46Are you aware of any other promises to write reduces?
- 8:49We'll leave the court compliance to court rules.
- 8:51Yes. And Mr. Harrison, do you agree
- 8:53with all three? Yes, yes.
- 8:55And you have. Thank you.
- 8:58The Court agrees and finds that the defendant's pleas that they
- 9:01are made freely, knowingly, involuntarily.
- 9:03The Court further finds that the testimony provided by the
- 9:06defendant Underoath on the record, in addition to the
- 9:09judicial notice taken of the terms and conditions of
- 9:11probation satisfied the required elements of proof.
- 9:14Therefore, the defendant found guilty of Counts 456 and seven
- 9:19as they appear on the amended request and warrant probation
- 9:22violation. March 31st of 2026.
- 9:27The other accounts 123 and 8 are hereby dismissed.
- 9:33All right. Can we proceed to sentencing
- 9:34now? Yes.
- 9:36Doll and Mr. Harrison I I. Have no issue.
- 9:40Back to you, Mr. Van Amel. Sentencing guideline range is
- 9:44zero to 6 continues. To owe 8. $125.00 in financing
- 9:49costs. Last check he had paid a total
- 9:54of $273 towards fines. He does have prior probation
- 9:59violations from 2014 and 15. Those consist.
- 10:04Of a positive. PBT.
- 10:05Associating with a felon and curfew violation.
- 10:08And not being fined and. Costs.
- 10:12The violations. And.
- 10:15The warrant primarily involved behavior carrying in North
- 10:20Carolina that results in criminal convictions.
- 10:24He was convicted of assault with a deadly weapon, which is a
- 10:26misdemeanor, and injured personal property.
- 10:32Due to all that, I would. Recommend 365 days of jail with
- 10:36credit for 163 days. Served.
- 10:39Formation terminated by successive certifying.
- 10:41Costs. All right.
- 10:44Thank you. Miss Dole, your position, I
- 10:54concur with that recommendation. With the 365 days credit that he
- 10:59already has. It's appropriate.
- 11:01All right, Mr. Harris. Ordinarily.
- 11:05Your Honor, I would do this. The same.
- 11:08Math here. Look at this.
- 11:10I'd note the prior violations. I would note that there's been
- 11:18some progress, but not a completion as far as repayment
- 11:21of the monetary obligations. But there's one other thing to
- 11:24look at here. Well, two things really.
- 11:27And the dates are 2013 and 20/16/2013 was the date of this
- 11:32conviction rather ancient history.
- 11:35And 2016 are the dates that have established the criminal
- 11:41convictions for which he is now guilty of violating probation
- 11:47because of their Commission. And even at that, those were 10
- 11:52years ago. I realized one ought not to
- 11:57obtain a benefit by absconding, 1 ought not to be able to run
- 12:03away, and simply due to the passage of time have all their
- 12:06misdeeds erased like so many footprints along the seashore.
- 12:11However, I also. Believe that his recent lack of
- 12:19contact with police agencies anybody that would enforce this.
- 12:24Warrant. I think is pretty compelling and
- 12:27I think it shows that he's had not only the actual.
- 12:33Physical. Time to grow up.
- 12:34But that psychologically, state of mind wise, he's also grown up
- 12:39quite a bit in the way he conducts himself in public.
- 12:42I would think all of that could be taken heavily into
- 12:46consideration here, especially with the zero to 6 guidelines.
- 12:53He doesn't seek to walk away from this with no sanction, Your
- 12:56Honor. I.
- 12:57Just think under the circumstances of a year and
- 13:01county jail, despite his that substantial credit may be
- 13:04excessive. Thank you.
- 13:06Thank you. And then of.
- 13:08Course. I'm going to need new advisor
- 13:09rights, the ones that are in the file up in 2009.
- 13:13All right. Thank you.
- 13:16Mr. Farb, you have the right to make a statement or the court
- 13:19issues a sentence. Is there anything you wish to
- 13:21state, Sir? No, you're on OK.
- 13:25All right. Well.
- 13:31Looking at the potent objections of sentencing rehabilitation
- 13:38point. I don't really know if that's
- 13:40what we're looking for here. This was a salt resist start the
- 13:45police officer much about really anything about what the facts
- 13:50were in this case back in 2013. But, and look here at deterrence
- 13:57and not only specific clients, Mr. Farr, but even more
- 14:02importantly, deterrence to the general public and to people who
- 14:06are put on probation not. To abscond and the defendant.
- 14:11Not. Absconded, things likely would
- 14:14have never happened, but he did abscond and he's been gone for
- 14:22quite a long time, so. For me, that drives the
- 14:32reasonable listen proportionality sentence.
- 14:36The court preserves all fines, costs, terminates probation
- 14:41without improvement. And for moments I do some math.
- 15:13Court. Sentences the defendant to an
- 15:14additional jail term and court sentences to 300 days.
- 15:21With 163 days of credit, that means you should earn 50 days of
- 15:27credit. So in the end, you've got about
- 15:3090 days or so do. I miss anything.
- 15:36Mr. Vannatwell, I know you're not Miss Dole, Mr. Harrison.
- 15:41Nothing. Further, Your Honor, thank you.
- 15:44Mr. Farr, Mr. Harrison is going to bring you from the clerk 2
- 15:47copies of 1 document. You're going to initial 1
- 15:50acknowledge and receipt to the other and the other one will
- 15:52take with you this. Document.
- 15:54Tells you that you have the right to approve your conviction
- 15:56and sentence in your case today. What?
- 15:59Based upon that of the original plea and sentencing?
- 16:04Any appeal is done by filing an application for leave to appeal.
- 16:08If you choose to file an application for leave to appeal
- 16:11and you want the court to appoint an attorney to assist
- 16:13you, you may complete the one copy that you're taking with you
- 16:17and return to the court within 42 days.
- 16:20Never dissuade anybody from filing an appeal.
- 16:23Keep in mind it'll take more time just to even get the
- 16:27transcript done, but that's all up to you.
- 16:32All right. The copy that you placed your
- 16:34initials on, you didn't elect Norway, even.
- 16:36You're right. You were just merely
- 16:37acknowledging for me that you got your copy.
- 16:39Any questions, Mr. Farr? All right, Mr. Farr, what's, you
- 16:44know, one thing I didn't hear today is, you know, lots of
- 16:47felonies and other stuff. So I've been trying.
- 16:50I've. Been trying.
- 16:52To better my. Life I don't.
- 16:55Mean. It's been about a.
- 16:57Decade since we like got in trouble so.
- 17:00Let's stay out of trouble. Thank.
- 17:02You folks. All righty friends, TCF live
- 17:06it's a super Friday. Good to have you all here.
- 17:09We can go live now and get out of the way back machine.
- 17:13Let's go to Judge Anna Marie Anzalone, Miss.
- 17:17Rowe. We are here yet for a warrant
- 17:20that was signed yesterday which alleges that you have committed
- 17:25the technical probation violation and that you were
- 17:28placed on probation in order not to use or possess any controlled
- 17:32substances. You tested positive for cocaine
- 17:35on March 23rd of 2026. A confirmation was sent out and
- 17:41then received on April 1 of 2026.
- 17:45So Miss Rowe, you do have a right to have an attorney
- 17:49represent you here today or in any subsequent hearings.
- 17:52If you can't afford to hire one, we can appoint one at public
- 17:55expense. And I do have Miss Underwood
- 17:57here in the event you would like court appointed council.
- 18:01So Miss Rowe, would you like a court appointed attorney?
- 18:04Yes. Now, Miss Underwood, I am going
- 18:09to point you to represent her. I.
- 18:12Do want you to know this is not her first violation for testing
- 18:15positive for cocaine. She is a member of her recovery
- 18:19court. How many violations have we had
- 18:22for testing positive for cocaine or?
- 18:25Any illegal? Controlled Substances.
- 18:27Miss Tusky. Why you sure and or prior to
- 18:30this? OK, so all right, I'm going to
- 18:35open up a breakout room. And.
- 18:39Place you both in it to give you an opportunity to speak.
- 18:43And. There we go.
- 18:48Mr. Mawad, go ahead Miss underway to turn that break.
- 18:55All right. So hold on one second, Mr.
- 18:57Schaeder, Mr. Lacoste, in your approach.
- 19:01I'm sorry. I was thinking.
- 19:05About that. I don't know.
- 19:07He. I did call him and he said, he
- 19:12said continue to finish trial and I did devise a few files to.
- 19:25OK. So.
- 19:28Mr. Mulan, good morning. Good.
- 19:34Morning. Mr. Mulwad.
- 19:38Miss. Brian.
- 19:41She's not. Here.
- 19:43Either. We.
- 19:46Do you have contact with her judge, if you can let me come
- 19:51up, come back out or do you want to just adjourn?
- 19:53She's made every court appearance so this.
- 19:56Is a shock to. Me that she's not you want to
- 19:58come back out and. Call her and see if we can do.
- 20:02Yeah. You want to try that or I want
- 20:04to adjourn it? Whatever.
- 20:06Would work best for you, Mr. Why?
- 20:08Don't we? Adjourn it.
- 20:10Let me find out what happened. She's been a good client.
- 20:15OK, Miss Adams, do I have anything available next week?
- 20:26Yes, Judge, we could do. Friday, April 17th at 8:15.
- 20:30Mr. Mohad, are you available? Thank you I'll.
- 20:35Find out Mr. Mohad, you're breaking up really bad, so why
- 20:39don't you are? You.
- 20:44Available next Friday at 8:15. Yes, I yes, I am Judge.
- 20:50Yes. OK.
- 20:52So we'll adjourn this to April 17 at 8:15 in the morning and
- 20:56we'll spend, we'll send a notice out.
- 20:58Thank you, Mr. Mohad. OK.
- 21:00Thank you very. Much.
- 21:01Thank you. OK, so it is 9 O. 4.
- 21:06So in the matter of FM Sylvan Inc versus LaSalle group file
- 21:12#24-247474 CB anybody, nobody, OK, nobody 's.
- 21:27Appeared. For that settlement conference,
- 21:30which means probably settlement just didn't tell us.
- 21:32All right, Miss Underwood, let me bring your client back.
- 21:36The jail judge can. I ask a question.
- 21:45What is the status? It's not about this case.
- 21:49Oh. OK.
- 21:50It's just. An in general, what is a status
- 21:53conference like? I got a status conference on a
- 21:57notice on a guy that I had wrote a PSI on in the past and I don't
- 22:01know what I should be doing with it.
- 22:06I don't know. So why?
- 22:08Don't we bring it over and ask? Yeah.
- 22:10And then we can look up the court notice to find out why.
- 22:14OK, so we are back on the row or on the record with Miss Rowe.
- 22:19Miss Underwood, have you had an opportunity to have a discussion
- 22:24with Miss Rowe? I have, your honor.
- 22:27All right. And how do you wish to proceed
- 22:29today with Miss Rowe? Miss Rowe, I wish to enter a not
- 22:34guilty plea on Miss Rowe's behalf.
- 22:37Your Honor. Is she wedding swabs at CPS
- 22:42immediately after Sarah told her she was dirty and that came up
- 22:50clean? So we have some real questions.
- 22:54So miss. Underwood.
- 22:55What I will advise you is that the tests that CPS use are not
- 23:00the same tests that we use. So their levels are are much
- 23:05lower. So I don't care if she tested 3
- 23:10to Miss Rowe, I'm talking. I don't care.
- 23:12If she tested at three other places, our tests are the only
- 23:15ones that matter and but I know there are no real accurate Your
- 23:20Honor and I know Mr. Mr. Mr. Post swabs of the gold standard.
- 23:28So I what I would ask, your honor, is that Miss Rowe is
- 23:33working. I would ask that she be given
- 23:38APR bond this separate hearing and she test daily with swabs
- 23:46from Mr. Post. OK, so all right, so I'm going
- 23:54to enter plea of not guilty, Miss Adams.
- 23:56Could I have the book? Please, who would you?
- 24:01Have as witnesses Miss Underwood.
- 24:05I'm going to. I want to look at the results
- 24:08and I want to see who will have. I may have.
- 24:18I would you do understand that this test was sent off to a lab.
- 24:23It's not just the test that was done at the courthouse.
- 24:26This test was sent to a lab. Miss Rowe, put your hand down
- 24:31and. So.
- 24:32That would. Be the gold.
- 24:33Standard for the lab test, all right.
- 24:38And this. Is her third violation.
- 24:40So I don't know that I'm going to consider APR bond at this
- 24:43point. So how much time do you need to
- 24:59get those people available, Miss Underwood?
- 25:04That long, Your Honor, it doesn't sound.
- 25:06Like reports? Never mind, I can.
- 25:12Set this for 11:00 Wednesday, April 15.
- 25:16That would be next Wednesday. Obviously, I don't want to delay
- 25:20it more than what you need to accommodate your witnesses.
- 25:23Well, Miss Rowe, do you want to have another breakout?
- 25:32You know Miss Underwood. Can I put you in a?
- 25:34Breakout room with Miss Teske. Perhaps Miss Teske could give
- 25:39you a little bit more information.
- 25:42No, I. Want another breakout?
- 25:46OK, I will give you another breakout room with Miss
- 25:48Underwood. But Miss Underwood, would you
- 25:50like their breakout? Hold on a minute.
- 25:53Give me. A.
- 25:55Chance to talk. All right, so first of all,
- 26:00your, your attorney advisor entering a plea of not guilty,
- 26:03which means I'm not going to let you say anything that could be
- 26:05used against you. I was asking first if Miss Teske
- 26:09and Miss Underwood would like a breakout room because I that way
- 26:13Miss Underwood has a clear understanding of the background
- 26:16and the the determination of the recovery court and the
- 26:19discussion. So that way your attorney is
- 26:21fully knowledgeable. About some of the.
- 26:24Allegations in this so and then I will give Miss Underwood a
- 26:29breakout room with you, of course.
- 26:31But Miss Underwood, would you like an opportunity to speak
- 26:33with Miss Tusky? All right, so Miss Rowe, I'm
- 26:36going to put Miss Underwood and Miss Tusky into a breakout room,
- 26:48and then when they come back, I will put you guys into a
- 26:53breakout room. All.
- 26:56Right. Anybody here for NPI debt fund?
- 27:01OK. All right.
- 27:02So this is in the matter of NPI debt fund file.
- 27:15This is in the matter of NPI Debt fund to LP versus Addison
- 27:21Development Phase One LLC, Suburban Propane LP, Michael W
- 27:27Botsky, David C Urton, Beauregard Harvey and Daniel B
- 27:32Peterson, and Daniel B Peterson and David C Urton.
- 27:37As. Defendants counter complaints
- 27:39cross plaintiffs versus Addison Development Phase One, LLC file
- 27:44#2033-7032, Chapter 9. Hiccups.
- 27:50So. Do I have Steven Jacobs present?
- 27:54Yes. OK.
- 27:55P6. 8749 Mr. Harvey is present. And Mr. Harvey, I do understand
- 28:01you're you're an attorney in another state just now,
- 28:03Michigan. And then?
- 28:04John Lovinger, P41585 And then I have Craig, yeah out of Ohio
- 28:1471002 Pro hot, Beachy. And.
- 28:19He they are attorneys for the defendants, counter plaintiffs
- 28:23across plaintiffs and Mr. Levinger is counsel for Mr.
- 28:27Vatsky so and Mr. Jacobs for the plaintiff.
- 28:32So we are here today on a final settlement conference again.
- 28:40So we've adjourned that I think a little bit.
- 28:44So did the. Parties.
- 28:47Engage in facilitation. Mr. Jacobs, I'll just start with
- 28:51you. Certainly, Your Honor, the
- 28:53parties did not do, they never did formal facilitation.
- 28:57There was there was a period of time when we did have it
- 29:00scheduled, but then a bankruptcy had been filed.
- 29:02They kind of derailed it. We were going to.
- 29:05Use. I had used.
- 29:08Them before in another manner. In in your court, Phil, I think.
- 29:12It's Phil. Accurate.
- 29:14No. No, it's.
- 29:16Oh my gosh, I can't. Believe his name right now.
- 29:19Schaefer Schaefer. Phillip Schaeffler.
- 29:21And he recently passed away. He did.
- 29:24I didn't know that. Oh my gosh.
- 29:27Yeah. So we were going to use, we were
- 29:29going to use Mr. Schaeffler. But so unfortunately no, we had
- 29:34during this time period we have attempted to have some whole.
- 29:37Informal. Settlement communications
- 29:39between the parties. Unfortunately we haven't been
- 29:42able to come to any type of resolution.
- 29:44We thought we maybe had some different avenues, but
- 29:47unfortunately nothing's. Really come to fruit so.
- 29:51At this point, obviously, I don't want to get into what any
- 29:55of those negotiations were. Do the parties want an
- 30:00opportunity to facilitate on your plan's behalf?
- 30:04I would not. I would not be opposed to still
- 30:06attempting facilitation, Your Honor.
- 30:08All right, Mr. Levinger and Mr. EO.
- 30:10I have. No.
- 30:11Objection to that. I certainly have.
- 30:13Folks to speak up for you. Okay, so Mr. Levinger, could you
- 30:17state that louder? Yeah, I have no objection.
- 30:19And Mr. Yeah, yeah. I have no objections.
- 30:22To that, okay. And Mr. Harvey, I have.
- 30:25No objection. I do think I.
- 30:27Need to amend cleanings but. No.
- 30:29Objection. Okay.
- 30:31OK. So this.
- 30:33Is a 23 file. This is an older file,
- 30:36obviously. So I.
- 30:39Don't want to delay too long, but any objection, Mr. Jacobs,
- 30:45to any amendment of pleadings as stated by Mr. Harvey?
- 30:50You know, your Honor, before. I.
- 30:52Would like to be able to see what the proposed meetings would
- 30:55be. I know I'm I'm not trying to
- 30:57make more work for everybody, but this is an older case and
- 31:01based upon some of my communications with Mr. Harvey.
- 31:04I do have some concerns that. Maybe some of the claims
- 31:06wouldn't maybe be appropriate. In.
- 31:08This action so I would prefer to be able to see that that actual
- 31:12proposed any proposed pleading before agreeing to.
- 31:15Something of that nature. All right, Mr. Jacobs, would you
- 31:23like to weigh in? I'm sorry.
- 31:26I'm sorry, Mr. Lovinger. Yeah.
- 31:29I I I would agree with. That there's been a lot of
- 31:33representations made verbally that have been followed up right
- 31:38from the get go. There were representations that
- 31:41there was going to be a very strong defense raised by asset
- 31:44development. Hasn't happened similarly.
- 31:48Mr. B. He's coming in, he's going to
- 31:51come in and guns a blazing. No appearance.
- 31:53He. And he one of the things he
- 31:56likes to talk to us. About is that he hasn't served
- 31:59well. He's here today, so I think he's
- 32:02aware of what's going on. OK.
- 32:05And Mr. Yeah. Thank you, Your Honor.
- 32:07I mean. My my.
- 32:08View on it is that much similar. To Mr. Jacobs.
- 32:12I don't know that any of those amended cluedings would have
- 32:15claims against my people. I don't know, but obviously I
- 32:17would like the opportunity to see them.
- 32:19And if I think they. Need to be attacked.
- 32:22I would attack them appropriately.
- 32:23Under Michigan law, yeah. You.
- 32:25Know obviously we get pleadings all the time striking all right
- 32:29so all right so it looks like for the most.
- 32:36Part. Anybody's wild.
- 32:38All right, So I will allow Mr. Harvey to amend his pleadings,
- 32:50but obviously all counts, so I have the right to object to any
- 33:00of the amendments. I'm going to.
- 33:41Order facilitation Again, it was a loss for our community and Mr.
- 33:47Schaedler passed away. I do.
- 33:51Not choose facilitators. So anyone that used for
- 33:55facilitation would be at your own choosing.
- 34:02And let's say facilitation must occur by July 31.
- 34:19And. That.
- 34:21Would give you probably to June 1 to amend your pleadings.
- 34:25Well, no. It's April, May, June 1.
- 34:57And then I'm going to set. Is there anything?
- 34:59Else you want other than a settlement conference at that
- 35:01point, well, we can do settlement.
- 35:05Conference. Is it too far out to be able to
- 35:07have? The court schedule a trial date
- 35:09so we have it on the books or. I know.
- 35:12Your your I know your your dockets.
- 35:15Very. Busy if Your Honor, Right.
- 35:16But usually civil trials I can schedule within three to four
- 35:20months from the settlement conference.
- 35:23But I can it would be, I mean, I'm fine with that.
- 35:29I'm looking at how many days do you think you need for trial?
- 35:33I think it would be no more than two.
- 35:37Days. As it sits right now.
- 35:39Does that include jury deliberations?
- 35:40Or no. This is.
- 35:41A non jury trial. Oh.
- 35:44So. Then we need a settlement
- 35:46conference in front of Judge OL Saver.
- 35:49So. We call.
- 35:51Judge Ol Saver's. Office.
- 36:15Hello, you are great. To judge.
- 36:45Hey. Is Frances over there by any
- 36:47chance? She is over here, can you?

- 39:35Thank you, Sir. Next is Frederick Day.
- 39:38Good morning, Sir. He's at Metro West Fork.
- 39:40You have an arrest warrant? It is from Sarasota County,
- 39:44Florida. The warrant was issued December
- 39:4631st of 1987. That's quite some time ago.
- 39:51Anyway, it's for violation of probation.
- 39:54Sir, can you afford to hire a private lawyer on the warrant?
- 39:57I will be able to, yes. All right, so they gave you a
- 40:00bond that's $20,000. If you want to post that $20,000
- 40:04bond, you can do so here in Miami.
- 40:05You'll get out of jail. I just want to make sure to keep
- 40:08all future court dates in Sarasota County because if you
- 40:11miss court again, a warrant will be issued.
- 40:14Yes, your Honor, Your Honor, yes, one second corrections.
- 40:17Each warrant has the count. The the first warrant says 2
- 40:21counts. Aggravated battery bond, 2010
- 40:24thousand. Oh, it's 10,000 each count.
- 40:26There's two counts, but there's two counts in each warrant.
- 40:29So it's a total of 4 counts. So we don't have a breakdown.
- 40:33But they. Said total bond is 20,000, so
- 40:35it's 5. 1000 each 5. $1000 bond each count.
- 40:39Total bond $20,000. OK so yes I already posted the
- 40:4520,000 bond. They probably made you come here
- 40:47to see me first. They sometimes do that.
- 40:50They said because there was a discrepancy of it, it should be
- 40:5340 or 20. So questions.
- 40:55It's 20,005 thousand each count. Do you need an order or no?
- 40:59I think you should do an order. I believe he was trying to bond
- 41:03out and the county was not accepting the bonds.
- 41:06Right. Because we I already did and
- 41:08I've been sitting here for three days.
- 41:10I was fine about that. But he does have first
- 41:11appearance on his jail card. So maybe after this.
- 41:15So what do I do is my question. So what do you need an order
- 41:19that says 5000 each count? Yes, it's two warrants inside
- 41:25the fugitive warrant. You need the warrant ID number,
- 41:28then the warrant numbers. I see it here.
- 41:30I said one warrant number for case number.
- 41:35If I may chime in, there should only be two.
- 41:37There shouldn't be 4 corrections.
- 41:40I don't I see case number for one.
- 41:44And then? Another.
- 41:44Case number. I don't.
- 41:47Understand the case numbers, how they're written.
- 41:49Yeah, they're different case numbers.
- 41:52So how do you want me to do the order?
- 41:54So warrant one is the 1986. CF. 00. 0736 NC and then number
- 42:01the warrant number 2 is. 80. 6. Yeah.
- 42:04I got it. It sounds to me like it's the
- 42:06same because it's. 736, yeah. I mean, I know they're the same,
- 42:11I'm just trying to help you. I think.
- 42:13We need clarification on this I. Don't know if they.
- 42:16Want to call the county? They've.
- 42:17Tried to call them and they're not Sarasota's not returning.
- 42:20I mean, I posted the 20,000 already.
- 42:23I mean, I'm just trying to figure out.
- 42:25I mean, I've been I've posted it on on Tuesday, two counts of
- 42:31aggravated battery and two is violation of probation for
- 42:35aggravated battery. So what do you want it to say?
- 42:38Counts one and two 5000 each count total bond 10,000 for the
- 42:42first warrant yes. All right, I'll try into an
- 42:46order. Hopefully it works so.
- 42:48Is it the? Same warrants or no?
- 42:50Because it's, it seems to me like it's the same numbers.
- 42:53Because it's a violation of probation, Yeah.
- 42:57I don't know. If the BD wants to contact the
- 42:59county. He had.
- 43:00Can afford a private lawyer. Oh, OK.
- 43:05Yeah, I mean, I need to get out to do that.
- 43:11I'll just write. Something up and hopefully it
- 43:13works. As long.
- 43:15As the jail here accepts that he gets out right.
- 43:18Should be. Yes.
- 43:20So it's going to be a total of 20,005 thousand each.
- 43:24How much? 5005 thousand each.
- 43:26Yeah, 5000 each count. OK, OK, so if if my bond is
- 43:32already posted, do I have to do anything else?
- 43:35Do I have to do it again? I don't think they're going to
- 43:36accept it until I do an order and I can't do that till at
- 43:39lunchtime. So you're going to have to sit
- 43:40tight. OK, No, I mean does my do I have
- 43:45to go through the whole posting again?
- 43:47Tell your bondsman. To tell your bondsman to look at
- 43:50the back of the jail card. We're going to look up for the
- 43:53paper order at the back of the jail card for the clarification.
- 43:57Sir, are you presiding at the Monmouth Ave. address in New
- 43:59Jersey? Correct.
- 44:01Is that a house or apartment? Is that house?
- 44:04That's just so they can give you future court dates.
- 44:07OK. Yeah.
- 44:10So I should be out of here today then.
- 44:13Is that safe? To say I.
- 44:17Hope so. We'll see.
- 44:20I'll I'll follow up on it and make sure there's no issues.
- 44:22OK, Thank you, your honor. I appreciate that.
- 44:25All right, good luck to you, Sir.

- 1:19:43this matter if people worry. See, this morning the victim did
- 1:19:47appear. We have since excused him once
- 1:19:48we learned the defendant would not be here.

- 1:20:26I don't know how long Mr. Fitz is going to be here.
- 1:20:28If he can get here, he can get here, but I'm not I already, I
- 1:20:32already said that to him when I spoke to him and he said he's on
- 1:20:34a job site and can't get here. Ben Swart will issue for

- 1:35:56you. Madison Pearson.
- 1:36:04This is a second yes, Miss Pearson.
- 1:36:06Good morning. Miss Pearson, you're hearing
- 1:36:07case 26-82 CT charge of one kind of driving on the influence and
- 1:36:12one count of refusal to submit. Miss Pearson, you've got a new
- 1:36:16charge and alcohol related charge in Bay County.
- 1:36:19I think Mr. Meadows has been able to resolve that and there
- 1:36:22she, Meadows is doing everything he can to try to get you out
- 1:36:24this morning. Miss Pearson, I'm concerned
- 1:36:26about the alleged alcohol issues as well as your age.
- 1:36:31You go from having no charges your whole life within a couple
- 1:36:34of weeks, now you got 2 charges ending in a very short period of
- 1:36:37time. Both of them are alcohol
- 1:36:38related. So Mr. Meadows is here.
- 1:36:40Let's listen to where we stand in the case and then we'll see
- 1:36:42if you have any questions. Mr. Meadows.
- 1:36:45Judge, Judge, What we would propose is a plea to 11 month,
- 1:36:5129 days probation, $978 fine, DUI school, 50 hours public
- 1:36:56service work, counseling as directed by probation officer
- 1:37:01with a special condition Judge. That she has to receive an
- 1:37:07immediate first available evaluation by a substance abuse
- 1:37:13specialist to determine whether or not she needs inpatient or
- 1:37:18whether outpatient therapy would be sufficient.
- 1:37:22And that she's too required to follow up with whatever
- 1:37:25recommendation that they make in the meantime until that
- 1:37:28evaluation is done and communicated to the probation
- 1:37:32officer that she be required to live with her mother, Courtney
- 1:37:37Cockrell, and that she be allowed to go to work.
- 1:37:41But anything other than work or church, that she she has to be
- 1:37:47accompanied by her mother, Courtney Cockrell until that
- 1:37:51evaluation is completed and reported back to the probation
- 1:37:56officer and the court makes any further order required
- 1:37:59restitution in this case is appropriate and the court would
- 1:38:03withhold jurisdiction, reserve jurisdiction on the issue of the
- 1:38:09amount of restitution until additional documents can be
- 1:38:13provided to the state. Minimum DL suspension and I
- 1:38:18believe that incorporates all of what we are proposing as a
- 1:38:21resolution judge. Thank you, Mr. Meadows, Mr.
- 1:38:23Mitchell. I think you.
- 1:38:26Covered pretty I think Mr. Meadows pretty much covered
- 1:38:29everything, and that is agreeable with the state.
- 1:38:32We'll leave it up to the court to decide what to do from this
- 1:38:34point forward. Mr. McDaniel, Judge, I think the
- 1:38:36fine is 1078. I've also signed got her to go
- 1:38:40ahead and sign the plea waiver form went.
- 1:38:42Over the plea waiver. Form form with her to waiver
- 1:38:44right to true trial and call witnesses.
- 1:38:47Mr. Gibson is that the place to buy charges?
- 1:38:51So Miss Pearson, I know that part of this may be new to you
- 1:38:54so I want to make sure you clearly understand my concern
- 1:38:57with just the probation with with a regular DUI probation is
- 1:39:00the recent DUI and I but I Mr. Meadows has pointed out several
- 1:39:03things in your favor. Number one, you had no prior
- 1:39:05issue until the at your attention #3 your age and your
- 1:39:13employment. So those are all helpful.
- 1:39:15Three and four, those are helpful things.
- 1:39:17My concern, the reason, the reason we're doing this, I want
- 1:39:19to make sure that there's not an alcohol problem here, that that
- 1:39:22you that's outside of your control that you just can't
- 1:39:24stop. So that's why you'd be
- 1:39:26essentially on house arrest except for work, church, or in
- 1:39:30the presence of your mother until you get the alcohol
- 1:39:33evaluation. Now, if the evaluator says you
- 1:39:36got to go to inpatient, then that's what you got to go.
- 1:39:39If the, if the alcohol evaluator says that outpatient counseling
- 1:39:42will suffice, then that's that's fine.
- 1:39:44Don't need a professional to say that.
- 1:39:46And hopefully I'm going to direct that you get that
- 1:39:48evaluation done within 30 days. So hopefully we can get that
- 1:39:51evaluation done and, and I need you No parties, no hanging out
- 1:39:56with friends, certainly no consuming alcohol.
- 1:39:59And we got to get this thing under control before it gets
- 1:40:01worse than it already is, yes. Sir So.
- 1:40:04I know you may disagree, but the reason I'm doing all of this is
- 1:40:07because I'm concerned about your welfare.
- 1:40:09Do you have any questions at all about this plea agreement?
- 1:40:12No, Sir. Do you live with your mother
- 1:40:14anyway? Kind of.
- 1:40:18Mostly with my mother, yes. Where else do you?
- 1:40:21Live other one than with your mother in Panama City with my
- 1:40:25grandmother. OK, so you're going to be at
- 1:40:27your mother's house at least until the alcohol evaluation and
- 1:40:30we'll go from there. Any questions about that?
- 1:40:33No, Sir, Actually, yes, I. Do have a question?
- 1:40:36OK, go ahead. If at any time I need to go to
- 1:40:40my grandmother's house, would my mother have to come with me?
- 1:40:43Absolutely. Unless yes, that's what house
- 1:40:45arrest means. Yes, she would.
- 1:40:48Now, if you contact the probation officer and say you
- 1:40:51contact your probation officer, Mr. Goodson, and say I've got
- 1:40:53this situation, Mr. Goodson can can can obviously make
- 1:40:56exceptions, but I don't need to call him every day asking to go
- 1:40:58to grandma's house because he's just going to say no, don't.
- 1:41:02Happen. OK, so hopefully that hopefully
- 1:41:04within 30 days just evaluator comes back and the evaluator
- 1:41:07tells us either you need inpatient or you need
- 1:41:09outpatient. Either way we're going to go
- 1:41:11with what that evaluator says. But you're awful young to have
- 1:41:14two alcohol related charges in such a short time period.
- 1:41:17Any questions at all? No, Sir.
- 1:41:20Mr. McDaniel, I, I'll Steve, you mind if I ask her a question
- 1:41:23real quick and I'll just mute it.
- 1:41:26What is? It's involved around her, she.
- 1:41:29Works in Panama I. Mean, I, I was just going to,
- 1:41:31you know, she works at the airport.
- 1:41:33So is that the house arrest? Does that mean is that going to
- 1:41:38affect her going to work in Panama or she lives in Panama
- 1:41:42where mother lives? Doesn't live in Panama, though.
- 1:41:44Mother lives in Marianna In interim, my mom lives in Alfred,
- 1:41:49Florida. Compass Lake.
- 1:41:51OK, so if you if you still have your job, you're free to drive
- 1:41:55to and from work, but that's it. I don't want you going anywhere
- 1:41:58else, hanging out with no friends.
- 1:41:59Whatever happened in Panama City recently, you got arrested for
- 1:42:01stopping all that kind of stuff. Any questions about that?
- 1:42:04Miss Pearson? If this doesn't work for some
- 1:42:06reason, you let me know. But you know, if you say that
- 1:42:09you can do this and that's what we're going to do.
- 1:42:11And she's. Not going to be able to drive
- 1:42:12until she gets administrative suspension.
- 1:42:15Resolved the job. May be an issue unless someone
- 1:42:18can take you to it from work. OK.
- 1:42:23Is this what you want to do? Yes, Sir.
- 1:42:26Mr. Gibson, just for clarification.
- 1:42:29So 11 months of 29 days on the DUI, six months on the refusal.
- 1:42:34I know she's. Going to be a judge guilty on
- 1:42:36the DUI don't know about the refusal I want to withhold and
- 1:42:39no no priors other than what she had recently.
- 1:42:41So thank you Miss Pearson. I'm going to accept your plea of
- 1:42:44no contest of these two charges driving on the influence and
- 1:42:46refuses to submit to breathalyzer.
- 1:42:48Ma'am, I'm going to withhold adjudication guilt on refusal.
- 1:42:50I have to adjudicate you guilty on the DUI.
- 1:42:53So I am I'm going to pose a standard court costs and fines
- 1:42:57for a private attorney case which are $100 less because
- 1:42:59there's no public defender fee and that amount no also still
- 1:43:04get if they're arrested. So you're right one thousand 7-8
- 1:43:07dollars court costs and fines. I think I already said the six
- 1:43:11month probation on the refusal to be concurrent, the standard
- 1:43:14conditions of every probation plus the following special
- 1:43:17conditions successfully complete substance abuse counseling as
- 1:43:19directed by the probation office.
- 1:43:21If you enroll in DUI school within 60 days, that's going to
- 1:43:23take that's going to perhaps all of your substance abuse
- 1:43:26counseling other than what the evaluator recommends. 50 hours
- 1:43:30of public service work are also required by state law.
- 1:43:32You have the right to purchase those under state law.
- 1:43:34I do recommend the minimum driver's license suspension.
- 1:43:37I'm reserving jurisdictional restitution for 60 days.
- 1:43:39That means if the if you don't agree to restitution amount, Mr.
- 1:43:44Mr. Mitchell has to have a hearing or schedule hearing
- 1:43:45within 60 days to see if there is any restitution on the DUI.
- 1:43:49So that it's a is she playing to basic DUI?
- 1:43:52She playing the DUI with property damage since there's
- 1:43:54restitution referenced. You can't have restitution on a
- 1:43:56regular DUI I would say. DUI with property damage.
- 1:43:59I think that that's a if you're reserving.
- 1:44:01Restitution pretty much has to be.
- 1:44:03So your plea to DUI with property damage, that carries a
- 1:44:05maximum of a year in jail. The reason that's important is
- 1:44:07if you violate probation, you'd understand that.
- 1:44:10Miss Pearson, you understand that?
- 1:44:11Yes, Sir. I'm not saying I'll give you a
- 1:44:13year in jail, but I certainly might depending on how you
- 1:44:16violate, if you violate and hopefully you won't.
- 1:44:19So you've got 30 days to go for an evaluation.
- 1:44:21Evaluate has got to be by certified or approved alcohol
- 1:44:25treatment specialist. And until that evaluation comes
- 1:44:29back, until the results come back, you've got a condition
- 1:44:31that you live with your mother unless there's an exception made
- 1:44:33by the probation office. And you can only leave the home
- 1:44:36for work or church purposes unless you're accompanied by
- 1:44:40your mother. So if you go, if you're
- 1:44:41accompanied with your mother, that's fine.
- 1:44:43Y'all can go out and eat or whatever.
- 1:44:45Miss Pearson, I just need you to strictly follow these rules
- 1:44:48because I don't want you to violate.
- 1:44:49I don't want to see you in 2346 months with you having alcohol
- 1:44:54in your system because what's going to happen then is you're
- 1:44:56going to be in jail for a long time and I don't want that to
- 1:44:58happen. Miss Pearson, let me tell you
- 1:45:00what's going to happen next. They're going to let you get
- 1:45:02dressed. They're going to let you use the
- 1:45:03phone if you wish to set up transportation.
- 1:45:06Then they're going to bring you to the courthouse.
- 1:45:08The reason for that, when I say they, I mean the jail.
- 1:45:10The reason for that is because the courthouse is where the
- 1:45:12probation office is at. When you get here, you'll meet
- 1:45:14with Mr. Goodson. Mr. Goodson will go over the
- 1:45:17probation order with you. Mr. Goodson will give you a copy
- 1:45:19of all the rules in writing. He will give you a chance to ask
- 1:45:22any questions you have, and then you'll be free to leave.
- 1:45:25So, Miss Pearson, the number one condition is no alcohol.
- 1:45:28That's both. Your charges appear to be
- 1:45:30alcohol related, so no alcohols #1 condition you got to follow.
- 1:45:34And as long as you do that, your, your life history makes me
- 1:45:38think as long as you follow that condition, you'll be able to
- 1:45:40follow all the others. Miss Pearson, do you have any
- 1:45:43questions? No, Sir.
- 1:45:45Mr. Meadows haven't missed anything, Sir.
- 1:45:47No, judge. I believe you've covered it, Mr.
- 1:45:49Mitchell. All right, Miss Pearson, we'll
- 1:45:52see you at the courthouse in a little while.
- 1:45:53Or, Mr. Goodson, we'll see you in a little while.
- 1:45:54I wish you the best, ma'am. OK.
- 1:45:56Thank you. You never heard back from.
- 1:45:57Thank you. You never heard back from Miss
- 1:45:58Colbert. Thank you.
- 1:46:00So. She said she's.
- 1:46:04Waiting to hear back. From that'll be good.
- 1:46:07It'll be good to know for future reference.
- 1:46:09All right, so ladies and gentlemen that that takes care
- 1:46:11of individuals who have friends or family or an attorney
- 1:46:13present. So we'll go back to the top of
- 1:46:15our docket which is Bruce Mims. Thank you, Josh.
- 1:46:21Can I? Be yes.
- 1:46:22Sir, thank you, Mr. Mathis, for coming up.
- 1:46:26There's your copy, actually, Mr. Mims.
- 1:46:29Good morning. Mr. Mims, you're here because
- 1:46:30you have an out of county warrant out of Brevard County.
- 1:46:32I'm going to ask the jail to double check this, but what it
- 1:46:35looks like to me is you have a child support matter with a $660
- 1:46:40purge. So I know that's kind of trivial
- 1:46:42compared to your much more serious criminal charge, but you
- 1:46:45do have a child support warrant out of Brevard County, and you
- 1:46:49have the right to be made aware of that.
- 1:46:50Anytime your bond or your purge changes like it is today, you
- 1:46:54get the right to use the phone to notify friends or family.
- 1:46:56Any questions, Mr. Mims? I just.
- 1:47:01Don't know if anyone's aware that I've been here for two
- 1:47:03years so there's no way I was able to make any payments at
- 1:47:08all. I've been here for the last two
- 1:47:10years. I think he's been.
- 1:47:12In custody, Corporal, is that? Right.
- 1:47:14He's been in custody two years on this trafficking case.
- 1:47:17Yes, Sir, he has. I told him to ride the courts
- 1:47:20down there. Just to let you know, that war
- 1:47:22was for $600.00. I know it is a bad copy.
- 1:47:25Looks. Like 660.
- 1:47:26But a $600.00 purge, yeah, mine, mine clearly says 660.
- 1:47:30Now, they may have made a mistake in and I'm not saying
- 1:47:32you're wrong. We should make Daniel, but it's
- 1:47:34it's it's not, it says 660, I don't think.
- 1:47:38The rest may be. Transportation dollars because
- 1:47:40that's why it's 660. They do transportation dollars.
- 1:47:44Well, the actual. Warrant's 600 so.
- 1:47:47OK. I'm just looking at the
- 1:47:47teletype. I don't have the warrant.
- 1:47:49The teletype says 660, but they may have included transportation
- 1:47:52costs and you're right, they may not be able to do that.
- 1:47:53So, Mr. Mims, that is concerning that.
- 1:47:58I don't know. That the Child Support, first of
- 1:47:59all, I was concerned that you're there for two years still
- 1:48:02waiting on the resolution. That's concerning.
- 1:48:05I agree. Fortunately, that's not my it's
- 1:48:08not my case. So I have no knowledge of why
- 1:48:12that may be the case. Regarding this the the matter in
- 1:48:17the Child Support matter. Mr. McDaniel, do you have
- 1:48:19someone you could notify down there by e-mail or that Sissy
- 1:48:22can notify just to make them aware of that?
- 1:48:26I can, I mean, I, I can notify them.
- 1:48:27Thank you. So Mr. McDaniel is going to
- 1:48:29notify them. Mr. McDaniel works part time
- 1:48:31with some child support related stuff in another capacity, not
- 1:48:34in his role as an assistant public offender.
- 1:48:36So I'm asking him to notify them that you're in jail.
- 1:48:39Obviously you can't pay child support while you're in jail and
- 1:48:41make them aware of this in writing.
- 1:48:44And then I'll ask he'll get you a copy of that.
- 1:48:45So you'll you'll be know whoever he notified.
- 1:48:47So Mr. Mims is there if, if the criminal case gets resolved and
- 1:48:54this still hold is on you, this hold is still on you.
- 1:48:56I don't know that I would hold you just for this under these
- 1:48:58circumstances. So Mr. McDaniel and Mr. Mims, I
- 1:49:01don't know what will happen to the criminal case, but if it
- 1:49:04gets dismissed or if you get found not guilty, he needs to
- 1:49:06come back to first appearance the next day so we can check on
- 1:49:09this. He has been.
- 1:49:10Given a bond, in this case he just.
- 1:49:13He can't make it, so he's in jail, right, $50,000 bond.
- 1:49:16So, Mr. Mims, if you're still there and the criminal case is
- 1:49:19is resolved again by not guilty or dismissal, I'm asking jail to
- 1:49:23bring you the first appearance the next day so I can deal with
- 1:49:26your concern. If you go to prison on this
- 1:49:28charge, obviously it doesn't matter.
- 1:49:31Any questions? No, I appreciate it, Honor.
- 1:49:34Yes, Sir. I wish you the best.
- 1:49:36All right, Daryl. Bugs.
- 1:49:39Bugs. Mr. Bugs.
- 1:49:45Good morning. Mr. Bugs, you here for the
- 1:49:48charge of violation and probation?
- 1:49:49I think we kind of anticipated this.
- 1:49:52It looks like there's a no bond warrant.
- 1:49:53It's been issued by the Circuit Judge.
- 1:49:55Mr. Buggs. What I'm going to do is I'm
- 1:49:57going to go ahead and arraign you on that charge because I
- 1:49:59want to get you a lawyer appointed if you're asking for
- 1:50:01one. Mr. Buggs, would you like to
- 1:50:02have an attorney appointed to represent you?
- 1:50:03Yes, Sir. I'm going to appoint the public
- 1:50:07office to represent you. Mr. Buggs, listen to Mr.
- 1:50:09McDaniel. We'll see if you have any
- 1:50:11questions in just a minute. John, we're.
- 1:50:13Going to interpleave not. Guilty.
- 1:50:14Yes to sit this on the April 23rd court.
- 1:50:15Doc and advise. Him that the attorney.
- 1:50:17From the public union's office will come by and visit him prior
- 1:50:19to that April 23rd. Mr. Mitchell, anything?
- 1:50:23No. Your Honor so Mr. Buggs, the
- 1:50:26attorney will see you before your court date and you'll see
- 1:50:28Judge Garcia and and make sure you tell your attorney that
- 1:50:31you've resolved your local charges and hopefully that'll
- 1:50:33help get that resolved. Mr. Buggs, any questions?
- 1:50:36No, Sir. All right, Sir, I wish you the
- 1:50:38best. We have James Harris.
- 1:50:43Yes, Sir. Mr. Harris, Good morning, Mr.
- 1:50:48Harris. You're here for the charge of
- 1:50:50driving under the influence in Case 26-18.
- 1:50:55So let's set the failure to appear charged.
- 1:50:58Public finish officer represents you.
- 1:50:59I'm going to ask you to listen to Mr. McDaniel, your attorney,
- 1:51:03John, I spoke to Mr. Harris. We're going to hear.
- 1:51:05Of. No.
- 1:51:06Contest the charges listed the understanding since the four
- 1:51:08months in the county jail, you have 7 days jail credit.
- 1:51:11That'd be $1078 in fines. He has waived his right to a
- 1:51:14jury trial and call witnesses and just resolve this case
- 1:51:17today. Thank you, Mr. Mitchell.
- 1:51:21Is that agreeable with the state?
- 1:51:22It is your honor. I know after he was arraigned on
- 1:51:25this one, I filed an amended information and the charge of
- 1:51:29refusal to submit for purposes of today.
- 1:51:33I will the state will move to dismiss count 2 on that and plea
- 1:51:37him to the DUI. OK.
- 1:51:40And Mr. McDaniel assume that's OK with you.
- 1:51:42Great. I didn't realize that, but yes,
- 1:51:44that's correct. Thank you.
- 1:51:45And Mr. Harris, I may have already asked you this.
- 1:51:48Is this the plea you would like to enter, Sir?
- 1:51:53Mr. Harris, Is that's what you want to do?
- 1:51:55I think he. Muted the earthquake.
- 1:51:56Yes, Sir. Thank you.
- 1:51:58Mr. Harris, I'm going to accept your plea of no contest only to
- 1:52:01count 1 driving on the influence.
- 1:52:02Count 2 is being dismissed by the state is case #26-18 CT On
- 1:52:08that count one, I'm going to judge you guilty to four months
- 1:52:11in jail, 1078 dollars, court costs and fines, states
- 1:52:15dismissing Count 2 and the total credit for time served.
- 1:52:18I did not write down Mr. McDaniel 7.
- 1:52:21Days. Seven days credit for time
- 1:52:23served, Mr. Harris. All that means there's no
- 1:52:26probation involved in this sentence.
- 1:52:27You finish this jail sentence, Sir.
- 1:52:28This is all behind you, Mr. Harris.
- 1:52:30Do you have any questions? No, Sir, wish.
- 1:52:33The best, Mr. Harris. Thank you.
- 1:52:35Yes, Sir. We have Anthony.
- 1:52:37Keith. Keith.
- 1:52:43Good morning. Mr. Keith, you're here for two
- 1:52:45charges of case 253242 case numbers.
- 1:52:50That first case number is Grand Theft, exploitation of elderly
- 1:52:53and fraud, use of a credit card. The second case is 25-346.
- 1:52:57Those are fraudulent use of a credit card, exploitation of
- 1:53:00elderly and Grand Theft. Essentially it looks like 2
- 1:53:02counts of each charged, 6 total felonies.
- 1:53:05It's a failure to appear warrant where you accused of not
- 1:53:08appearing in pretrial court in front of Judge Garcia.
- 1:53:12So there's a no bond warrant issued.
- 1:53:13Mr. Keith, you're going to be held with no bond until you can
- 1:53:15get over to Circuit Court and try to get this case resolved.
- 1:53:18I'll ask Mr. McDaniel to notify your attorney in felony court of
- 1:53:21the no bond status. Mr. McDaniel, Judge, he we How
- 1:53:23much is the bond 5. 100. Cashews. 500.
- 1:53:28Cashews so his previous bond was $500 on each count.
- 1:53:32Madison County come over and pick him up with.
- 1:53:35An order to pick him up. And.
- 1:53:37We've left the detainer with them to bring him back, but they
- 1:53:39seem to prison. And now?
- 1:53:41He's coming. They just shipped me back from
- 1:53:42prison here, so we just asked the court to.
- 1:53:45Maybe. Go ahead and use some and ask
- 1:53:48the court to reinstate that previous bond which I think is
- 1:53:50$1000 cash bond and I haven't looked at my step but I.
- 1:53:53Told. 3003 thousand cash bonds I'm told.
- 1:53:56I'm. Sorry.
- 1:53:58Your Honor, if I may now hang on just.
- 1:54:00A second. Let me look up the case before.
- 1:54:01I'm glad to hear from you, but give me a second here.
- 1:54:06Yeah, new information. Couldn't.
- 1:54:14Text all that this morning. No that's fine it's just I don't
- 1:54:18mind at all. I just want to make sure that I
- 1:54:20know as much information as I can before I change a no bond
- 1:54:23warrant from another judge. OK, so I'm seeing first
- 1:54:34appearance back in July information file and then
- 1:54:39allegedly stipulated the order releasing defendant from the
- 1:54:46Jackson County Correction facility and transferring to
- 1:54:48Madison County to answer pending charges.
- 1:54:51So let's see what the stipulated order.
- 1:54:52I don't I've never seen an order like that.
- 1:54:53So let's see what it says. What it says is that associated
- 1:55:00attorney Mr. Gill and Mr. John Young Roberts have stipulated
- 1:55:05that he's got pending charges and he's got a violation of
- 1:55:08probation in Madison County. The matter defense counsel says
- 1:55:12the Madison County charge should be addressed first before the
- 1:55:15Jackson County charges. State has no objection to
- 1:55:18releasing him. Therefore, the courts granting
- 1:55:20the authority Madison County shall be notified the defendants
- 1:55:23available for transport. OK.
- 1:55:26So that would have been in September of 25 and then it was
- 1:55:33set for a pre trial in December of 25 and the KPS was issued
- 1:55:42January of O 6th January. 6th Twenty. 26th January. 6th, let
- 1:55:49me go to the Florida Department of Corrections website.
- 1:55:52You're understanding Mr. McDaniels, he actually went to
- 1:55:54prison out of Madison County and he's already out, is that right?
- 1:55:57Correct. Well, I think it would be EOS
- 1:55:59yesterday. So yes, Sir.
- 1:56:05The order from the 6th says. At least according to Judge
- 1:56:08Garcia from what I'm looking at. Mr. Keith, I'm looking at
- 1:56:24Department of Corrections website.
- 1:56:25It shows a detainer from Jackson County.
- 1:56:27It shows you in custody 10-9 to 25, out of custody 49 to 26.
- 1:56:31So you're out of custody yesterday.
- 1:56:33All right, So I kind of got a little bit of a better idea.
- 1:56:35Mr. Mr. Mitchell, what were you about to say?
- 1:56:37So I. Misread it and but there was
- 1:56:42that order of revocation of release with directions to clerk
- 1:56:46filed on the 6th. Released them to Madison County
- 1:56:52to answer dependent violation of probation charges.
- 1:56:55The Court anticipated the Madison County would resolve the
- 1:56:57instant case at the time of resolving the Madison County
- 1:57:01cases. Unfortunately, that did not
- 1:57:03occur and the defendant was sentenced to serve time in DOC.
- 1:57:06So he did serve time in DOC. This issue was brought to the
- 1:57:10Court's attention on December 16th of 2025.
- 1:57:14At the time, counsel for the State and the defendant were
- 1:57:16both present or not a judge. The defendant's release,
- 1:57:19previously granted on September 7th, 2025, is revoked.
- 1:57:25That's what I that's the last thing I'm seeing that happened
- 1:57:28in this case. So she revoked the release, but
- 1:57:31that doesn't mean it's not entitled to a bond.
- 1:57:35But revoked the release means I just got to get a warrant out
- 1:57:37there. So they'll be a detainer on it.
- 1:57:39That doesn't change his bond status.
- 1:57:40Is there any? Evidence the state has that he's
- 1:57:42violated the condition of his bond, not such that his bond
- 1:57:46will be revoked at this. Time.
- 1:57:47I have not seen anything, Mr. Blunt.
- 1:57:49You're shaking your head. Yeah, She thinks it's entitled
- 1:57:51to a bond, too. I think Mr. McDaniel may be
- 1:57:54right. Mr. McDaniel, you think he's
- 1:57:55entitled to a bond, right. We were just asked to reinstate
- 1:57:59that previous bond, you honor. Yeah, I mean I.
- 1:58:02Just. I think he's, I think that's the
- 1:58:04thing to do is you get re, you get Mr. Judge Garcia issued a
- 1:58:06warrant so there'd be a hold on you to get you back here.
- 1:58:10But I don't think that means that you're not entitled to a
- 1:58:12bond once you get back here. So it's really not a failure to
- 1:58:15appear warrant. The clerk's office did a failure
- 1:58:17to appear for pretrial conference, which is really what
- 1:58:20not what Judge Garcia's order says.
- 1:58:22So I'm I'm going to interpret it in your favor.
- 1:58:24I think what she wanted was a warrant issue to get you back
- 1:58:26here, not necessarily for you to have no bond.
- 1:58:29So it looks like in case 25324, you have a total cash bond of
- 1:58:34$1500 cash only that's 25324. And in 3-4 six.
- 1:58:41I think Mr. McDaniel thinks it's the same cash bond.
- 1:58:44We're going to double check that it probably is the same cash
- 1:58:49bond from first appearance and it looks like it's $1500 cash
- 1:58:56also. So you've got a total cash bond
- 1:58:58of $3000 cash, the exact bond that was set for you for first
- 1:59:02appearance before you went to Madison County.
- 1:59:04Mr. Mitchell, any anything else you want to put on the record on
- 1:59:06that one? No, Your Honor.
- 1:59:07Mr. Mcdane. Anything else?
- 1:59:09Nothing else. Shawn.
- 1:59:10Mr. Keith, any questions? No, your Honor all.
- 1:59:13Right. So I wish you the best.
- 1:59:15Thank you. Whatever was originally on the
- 1:59:201st appearance. So let's look and see nothing on
- 1:59:25the jail sheet that doesn't always mean anything.
- 1:59:28So I'm abundant to caution I need to do a condition no
- 1:59:30contact with the with the alleged victim in that case,
- 1:59:32corporal, there's nothing right on the jail sheet.
- 1:59:35I find that you. You did put no.
- 1:59:37Contact with the victim on there so it's not on the jail.
- 1:59:39Sheet from first appearance, but it's pretty common that'll get
- 1:59:42missed. So please let him know there's a
- 1:59:44there's a condition. No contact with alleged victim
- 1:59:46in that case. Victim or victim Since there's
- 1:59:48two case numbers. That brings us to Waylon Kramer.
- 1:59:51Mr. Kramer. Good morning.
- 1:59:52Mr. Kramer. You're here because you've been
- 1:59:54accused of 1 count of domestic violence battery.
- 1:59:56There is probable cause in the complaint.
- 1:59:58Mr. Kramer. The history I've got shows no
- 2:00:02prior criminal history, Is that correct, Mr. Kramer?
- 2:00:05Yes, Sir. OK.
- 2:00:08Mr. Kramer, you are 22 years old and you're unemployed, Is that
- 2:00:13right? Yes, Sir.
- 2:00:16How do you provide for yourself if you are you a student or
- 2:00:18what's your status? I mean I.
- 2:00:20Got a side job? How do you mean a side job?
- 2:00:25Are you unemployed or do you work?
- 2:00:26Which is it? OK, I'm going to get paid.
- 2:00:30Care. OK, then.
- 2:00:31You're working. I work.
- 2:00:33Where do you work? At my landlord.
- 2:00:37All right. So do you live in the same
- 2:00:38residence for the alleged victim?
- 2:00:42Yeah. All right, I've got enough
- 2:00:47information. Mr. McDaniel, anything.
- 2:00:49Your Honor, we just asked for a condition release and he's not
- 2:00:52getting a condition release. I appreciate Mr. McDaniel.
- 2:00:55His attitude is terrible. He doesn't doesn't have a real
- 2:00:58job, it appears. And I am.
- 2:01:01I'm concerned about the allegations in the complaint,
- 2:01:02which are pretty serious. Yes, Sir, I don't think he just
- 2:01:06for the. Courts, I don't think.
- 2:01:07I think he's just kind of quiet talking here.
- 2:01:08I don't think he's meaning to be rude to work.
- 2:01:11So bet. We understand whatever kind of
- 2:01:13police officer, maybe a cash bond option, Your Honor, if
- 2:01:15that's susceptible. Mr. Mitchell, no objection.
- 2:01:18To a cash bond do you have? Somewhere else you could live
- 2:01:21other than where the alleged victim lives.
- 2:01:23Let me explain what I mean by that.
- 2:01:24There's going to be a condition no contact with her.
- 2:01:27So even if I were consider a conditional release, I would
- 2:01:30only consider that if you had somewhere else you could go.
- 2:01:33Do you have somewhere else you could live?
- 2:01:34And and before you answer the question, I won't even know
- 2:01:36where. Yes, Sir.
- 2:01:38Where like on my grandfather Robert Locke.
- 2:01:50And where do you work at again? Is my landlord, what's his name?
- 2:01:58Miss Pat. Route, Pat route.
- 2:02:00What do you do for her? Just fix the trailers up for.
- 2:02:03Her How much does she pay you? It knocks off my rent, knocks
- 2:02:06off your rent, but how do? You buy groceries.
- 2:02:07How do you support yourself? I mean yes, my.
- 2:02:09Bad Mom, She got crew stamps. How do you pay?
- 2:02:11Electricity bills, yeah. That's not a that's not a real
- 2:02:16job. I'm gonna set your bond at $2500
- 2:02:17cash or share. Do you have a condition?
- 2:02:19No. Contact the alleged victim.
- 2:02:20You get a chance to use the phone starting a few minutes to
- 2:02:22post the bond. I wish you the best.
- 2:02:24We're also going to ask the jail to give you a notice for your
- 2:02:26court date. When will that be?
- 2:02:28April 27th will be your court dates, Sir.
- 2:02:30At 9:00 AM. Mr. Brady, you know, if he's
- 2:02:33still there next week, I have no problem you bringing him back.
- 2:02:35Let's see if we can make some progress.
- 2:02:36But it doesn't like he has a real job.
- 2:02:39That's that's concerning. Understand John, he may have AI
- 2:02:44noticed. I just couldn't.
- 2:02:45Have a notice they filed a action against him.
- 2:02:47And his girlfriend. On truancy case.
- 2:02:49So they may have a truancy case about to be served on.
- 2:02:52I seen it was filed but I haven't.
- 2:02:53Seen them service. On much yet.
- 2:02:55So Mr. Richard, if you can take a look at that case, the
- 2:02:57complaint, the alleged victim was there wouldn't be probable
- 2:03:01cause if it wasn't for the fact that the third person allegedly
- 2:03:04saw the whole thing, but she was not very cooperative and did not
- 2:03:08appear to be very truthful if the alleged, the witnesses
- 2:03:12version is credible. So you may or may not be able to
- 2:03:16go forward with it. So Mr. Kramer, if you post bond,
- 2:03:18you'll be released. If not, I'll see you one day
- 2:03:20next week, Sir. Yes, Sir, you did say no contact
- 2:03:24with the victim. I did say.
- 2:03:25Absolutely no contact with Ledger victim Joshua Fillman.
- 2:03:37Mr. Fillman, Good. Morning, Mr. Fillman.
- 2:03:39You're here because you've been accused of one counter of
- 2:03:40strutting an officer without violence.
- 2:03:42Mr. Fillman, there is probable cause for the charge.
- 2:03:45I'm appointing the public finish officer represent you.
- 2:03:46Mr. Fillman, please listen to Mr. McDaniel, your attorney.
- 2:03:49Yes, Sir. Your Honor, Tammy is here today.
- 2:03:52I don't I haven't see him yet, although I haven't spoken with
- 2:03:56him and and he's. Definitely.
- 2:03:57I mean, he does. Do it.
- 2:03:58He's going to. Qualify for a Banker Act.
- 2:04:01And so I just. Tammy's got a scene first.
- 2:04:04So that's all I have gone. Mr. McDaniel, your text, I
- 2:04:07learned some information this morning from your text or your
- 2:04:10e-mail. So I thought the county had a
- 2:04:13contract life management and because that contract life
- 2:04:15management did evaluations and that was included in the
- 2:04:17contractual rate, but that's not accurate or correct, not
- 2:04:22completely accurate. So if it's.
- 2:04:23If it has to. Be done on an emergency basis.
- 2:04:25You know when someone comes in, they need to be seen the next
- 2:04:28day. It's $200 fee.
- 2:04:31OK, I mean, I. Got to pay it on each each.
- 2:04:34One that that happens. So, So is the corporal still in
- 2:04:38there? Yes, Sir.
- 2:04:40So Corporal, here's my question. I don't necessarily think that
- 2:04:42Mister Film is an emergency basis, but I do want him
- 2:04:45evaluated. So tell me the timeline
- 2:04:47difference between if I ask for an evaluation today versus I
- 2:04:51just ask for an evaluation whenever they're out there?
- 2:04:54OK. It's my understanding that the
- 2:04:59only time we do emergencies. Is if they attempt suicide, we
- 2:05:04have to call? Them after hours.
- 2:05:06If. They come in and there's a
- 2:05:08possibility. That we're going to.
- 2:05:10You know, Baker act them then the she just sees them when she
- 2:05:12comes in and Mr. McDaniel is if if she sees them when they come
- 2:05:17in, Mr. McDaniel, is that an extra fee for the county is your
- 2:05:20understanding? I believe it's just the $80 fee
- 2:05:22then when that's just regular when they come.
- 2:05:23In to see them. And 100 and. 20 is the.
- 2:05:26You know. That's what she.
- 2:05:27Was telling me a. While back and I confirmed with
- 2:05:29him this morning but I didn't get all the details.
- 2:05:31I was trying to get in here real quick like so it could be what
- 2:05:35you're saying after hours, I'm not quite sure.
- 2:05:37I know. That you've been kind of
- 2:05:40addressing, trying to address this issue for a couple years.
- 2:05:43It appears that with smaller, smaller municipalities, it
- 2:05:47appears they get this case is a great example.
- 2:05:50They get a call for a Baker Act. They get out there, the person
- 2:05:53resists them somewhat, which you kind of would anticipate in a
- 2:05:56Baker Act call. Rather than Baker acting, the
- 2:05:58officer changes gears and decides to make an arrest.
- 2:06:01And that's essentially what the complaint says in this case.
- 2:06:05And I I know that you have a a theory that has to do with them
- 2:06:08not having to transport them. That then becomes the county's
- 2:06:10responsibility to transport them.
- 2:06:11And that may be some substance to that, I'm not sure.
- 2:06:13But Bishop McDaniel is, is that kind of your view on what we
- 2:06:16have here that is, is costing the county taxpayers?
- 2:06:20You know, and, you know, that's always been my concern is, is
- 2:06:23costing county taxpayers for. Yeah, I mean, but that's, that's
- 2:06:25my I'm trying to make. I know it's AI, know it's
- 2:06:27difficult when a municipality only has one officer.
- 2:06:30Because that. Transport can take two or three
- 2:06:32hours, but I I don't know that arrest them for this kind of
- 2:06:37charges is the best solution. Either it's pretty clear based
- 2:06:41on the complaint, Mr. Fillman, his crime was secondary or his
- 2:06:44alleged crime was secondary to alleged mental health crisis.
- 2:06:50Mr. Mitchell, what's your thoughts?
- 2:06:53We're in agreement. With the court on that so.
- 2:06:57Leave it up. To your discretion, I guess my.
- 2:06:59Question Mr. McDaniels, if I if I don't mind setting them a
- 2:07:01small bond, but I also I don't if I make grant him an ROR, does
- 2:07:05that in turn make it an emergency on life management?
- 2:07:07I don't want to make the county pay extra money just because I
- 2:07:11grant him an ROR. I may just set him a small bond
- 2:07:13and let let life Angel do an evaluation.
- 2:07:16Having said that, if they say he needs to be bankrupted, I'm fine
- 2:07:19with that. I just can't let him out on the
- 2:07:21street. If that's the case, I would, my
- 2:07:24suggestion would be, your honor is to create a small bond
- 2:07:27because it is Friday today. And also in that bond that says
- 2:07:30if life management determines when they see him on normal
- 2:07:33basis that he qualifies for Baker Act and that transfer that
- 2:07:36would transfer to or to go to Baker.
- 2:07:38You know what? I think that's a creative and
- 2:07:41good solution. I, I, I wouldn't have thought of
- 2:07:43that. I think that's a really good
- 2:07:44idea. Put in the bond.
- 2:07:46If he qualifies for Baker Act then automatically he would
- 2:07:49qualify it would revert it to an ROR.
- 2:07:51Mr. Mitchell, what's your thoughts?
- 2:07:52No objection. To that, I'm going to set you a.
- 2:07:54$500 bond, but there's going to be a condition of the bond.
- 2:07:57If you're evaluated by life management and they determine
- 2:07:59that you qualify for or law enforcement, law enforcement,
- 2:08:01you do an evaluation also, they could have done it yesterday.
- 2:08:05If you're evaluated by law enforcement or life management
- 2:08:07and they determine you qualify for Baker Act, then upon that
- 2:08:10Baker Act being filled out, then this will be converted to an
- 2:08:13ROR. That means the jail doesn't have
- 2:08:14to keep you and make you post bond.
- 2:08:15They don't have to keep you till Monday.
- 2:08:17They can go ahead and let you go today if law enforcement or life
- 2:08:21management say you need to go today.
- 2:08:23Mr. Feldman, any questions about any of that?
- 2:08:26This officer has Baker acted me like 6-7 times.
- 2:08:29I've had to walk. Panama City, I've had to walk
- 2:08:31from Tallahassee. It's like he's playing football
- 2:08:33with me. Well, this won't be the officer
- 2:08:35doing it this time. If if the law management says
- 2:08:37that you don't qualify for Baker Act, then you've got a bond set.
- 2:08:41If life management says you qualify, then that's now
- 2:08:43somebody else saying that there needs to be some underlying
- 2:08:45mental health issues that got to be addressed.
- 2:08:47OK, Yes Sir. Please give him a notice for his
- 2:08:50court date which will be 27 April 27th.
- 2:08:54Mr. Philbin, I wish you the best.
- 2:08:56Yes, Sir. Thank.
- 2:08:57You, Sir. Yes, Sir.
- 2:09:00I like that that's a creative. Solution, Mr. McDaniel, that's
- 2:09:03that's a good solution, I think to.
- 2:09:06That way. It's not an emergency, but if
- 2:09:08they get the valuation done today, he can go today.
- 2:09:11Yes and it and before he they told me it was 200.
- 2:09:15I thought it was 200 on each of them, but I didn't realize it
- 2:09:16was only on an emergency basis. So he was just telling me so.
- 2:09:20But I I think. It's 80.
- 2:09:21I know it's $8080 for the normal 1.
- 2:09:23So then 120, I guess it's emergency basis.
- 2:09:26Yeah. So I appreciate you Honor, Mr.
- 2:09:29McDaniel, anything else from the public members office this
- 2:09:31morning? No, Your Honor, Mr. McDaniel.
- 2:09:36All right. As they wrap up there, let's go
- 2:09:38to Texas, Jefferson County Judge Stevens.
- 2:09:56OK, we have an 1830013. You.
- 2:10:01Willie Franklin Cowart Juniors And there was a hearing held
- 2:10:07year ago, about a year ago, and you pleaded true to some
- 2:10:15reporting issues and you have been on probation since 2019
- 2:10:25and. This is.
- 2:10:27An update on status, how he's doing I guess from probation.
- 2:10:32So. I guess the question is how is
- 2:10:35he doing? He's doing good.
- 2:10:36Last time we were here you discussed possibly early
- 2:10:40termination for him. You just have the stipulation
- 2:10:43that he test negative for methadone moving forward.
- 2:10:47So. He.
- 2:10:48Submitted 2 drug tests, one on 2:20 and 1:00 on 3/20.
- 2:10:52Both were negative since our last hearing.
- 2:10:54Good job. I also believe the last status
- 2:10:59hearing we had. In January was to make sure that
- 2:11:01he had paid all restitution and it's my understanding that it's
- 2:11:03all paid at this point. OK, so the thoughts what shall
- 2:11:10we do? Up to you judges, actually.
- 2:11:15It is, but I'd love to hear what everyone has to say.
- 2:11:19I know what the defense says but y'all are we need to advocates.
- 2:11:26But actually, at the end of the day, probation is the.
- 2:11:30Neutral. Person.
- 2:11:32And. What do you think he's.
- 2:11:35Done. What's required by the courts to
- 2:11:37him for the most part and so if that is something that everybody
- 2:11:42is on board with I'm OK for determination.
- 2:11:45What do you think Mr. Coward? Yes Sir.
- 2:11:49I'd have been shocked if you'd have said otherwise.
- 2:11:54You obviously your, your mental faculties are sharp today,
- 2:11:58obviously. What do you plan to do now when

- 2:21:46I said that. Cool as.
- 2:21:48A cucumber. I said that oh go.
- 2:21:51Nope, got picked. On that one.
- 2:21:55In 30th, 1026. A quick.
- 2:21:59Question, Anna. Yes, Sir, because I was trying
- 2:22:01to pay for my reinstate my renewal like today or tomorrow
- 2:22:04for my license, I got to pay that fine.
- 2:22:07On top of that, before that we're trying to pay what for my
- 2:22:11license, my reinstatement new. We're trying to pay the
- 2:22:13reinstatement the 1:20. 5. The 125, but the 125 would be
- 2:22:19paid at the Secretary of State, right?
- 2:22:20No, correct. That's what I'm saying.
- 2:22:21Because now I've got this fine on top of that.
- 2:22:24So I have to pay the fine first. I would.
- 2:22:27OK, so the way. I.
- 2:22:28Think it works is you can pay that 125 at the one the
- 2:22:32Secretary of State, but then don't not pay this because
- 2:22:36you're going to get re. You'll get re as suspension will
- 2:22:40happen, right. What I was saying because I made
- 2:22:42a payment yesterday, but I had I couldn't pay my reinstatement
- 2:22:44renewal because I had a older ticket that I had to pay my was
- 2:22:49it this ticket? Yeah.
- 2:23:10I. Think that's awesome.
- 2:23:20That's awesome. Did you?
- 2:23:21It's better than you. Yeah,
- 2:23:45Sir, it seems to me that you got a suspension from.
- 2:23:55A. Ticket.
- 2:23:58From 2. 1000. 23 this Corey. Is that?
- 2:24:07241-1404, the ticket number, it looks like it's a suspension
- 2:24:19from an operating while intoxicated.
- 2:24:21Our ticket number is 231-0445. Yeah, that's the last point.
- 2:24:30And then you have another one. Yeah, that's.
- 2:24:34The full case, but that's off of the same client.
- 2:24:39So it looks to me like there was a suspension, but you may have
- 2:24:42done something and if we're suspended to April 2nd of 2026,
- 2:24:51which may be why you're able to pay your potentially pay your
- 2:24:56reinstatement fee then have a ticket out of 14 beat you're on
- 2:25:10street you have Whitaker that. Well, no that.
- 2:25:17Never mind because your suspension was and its team it
- 2:25:23might well that's older. So it might be this one that's
- 2:25:32the only one I did it but you but there's an adjudication at
- 2:25:36least on it. OK, so.
- 2:25:42I don't know. What the Secretary of State
- 2:25:44would say you can tell them you pled to a no OPS and see if
- 2:25:48they'll let you pay it got time to pay this one.

- 2:48:555. CR1341 is called the state of
- 2:48:57Texas versus Jackson fan. I hope I'm saying that.
- 2:49:02And you are here and you were here with your attorney, Miss
- 2:49:07Lie Lay is it layer Lie lie and the state's attorney.
- 2:49:14Mr. Ham, And this is an announcement, as you know,
- 2:49:19you're charged with the third degree felony of theft, which
- 2:49:23carries with it, if convicted up to 10 years in prison.
- 2:49:27So it's very serious. Let me ask.
- 2:49:30You, you still living in Las Vegas?
- 2:49:32Yes. OK, that makes one of us.
- 2:49:36Well. 9. 23. 5 yes. OK, So what are we going to?
- 2:49:42Do today an announcement. What's our plan?
- 2:49:45It it we trying to resolve it without a trial?
- 2:49:47We've had some discussions, Judge, I've given an offer, OK,
- 2:49:52it's over half a year old. What do we do?
- 2:49:57Trying to. Conferring with the prosecutor.
- 2:50:00I'm sorry. Trying to conferring with
- 2:50:04prosecutor, OK. What do we do next?
- 2:50:08What's our? Next question.
- 2:50:10There's there's codependence. The other one is scheduled to
- 2:50:13make an appearance today. I've asked for them to stay on
- 2:50:16the same dock if if. Probably.
- 2:50:20Because of the age and the. The type.
- 2:50:24Cases is I would suggest placing it on the file, but again, we,
- 2:50:30we go on the trial docket, we go to trial and that's the way it
- 2:50:34is and it's a backlog it'll, but we tried going to the Internet
- 2:50:41more trials than anyone else has ever tried.
- 2:50:43So yeah, so we did just try cases.
- 2:50:48We put it on and we'll just turn in.
- 2:50:50I I don't. Want to throw on the trial
- 2:50:52docket and languish, you know, and then.
- 2:50:55I have. If you want to give them one
- 2:50:57more setting. To Well, it's been a half a.
- 2:50:59Year, so everybody's had enough time to figure it out.
- 2:51:02You know, I just made a formal offer today.
- 2:51:04If you want to give them full time to consider what is the
- 2:51:07plan, I've offered them a cap of five years.
- 2:51:11Oh, I see this. This this is a.
- 2:51:13Defective permanent history. He does.
- 2:51:15He's actually on deferred probation out of Paris County.
- 2:51:20OK, it's deferred. He's not been convicted.
- 2:51:22No Sir. Right.
- 2:51:26For what? The charges tampering with a
- 2:51:33government record. He ended up leading.
- 2:51:37That was the original charge. He ended up leading and.
- 2:51:42Took it as. An attempt to commit result in
- 2:51:46it being a felony third degree displaced on four years
- 2:51:49probation that actually occurred four months before this
- 2:51:52particular offense. And that's the reason why I'm
- 2:51:54not offering him probation because he was on probation, yes
- 2:51:57Sir, when this allegedly occurred.
- 2:52:00Yes, Sir. No.
- 2:53:34What's I'm a little I'm fuzzy about something here.
- 2:53:42I've got these this packet of papers here dated March 17th
- 2:53:46about the defendants supervision in Harris County, Texas.
- 2:53:54And I'm not sure. I'm.
- 2:53:58Reading this, I'm not. Sure, how have you read this?
- 2:54:00I'm not sure how to take this. I'm not sure if I'm happy or or
- 2:54:08I'm concerned about what I'm reading here and it may be just
- 2:54:13the way it's typed by the person who types who may not be
- 2:54:17appreciating the way the wording is used.
- 2:54:20But everybody gets to read this that's in the file and it's
- 2:54:26concerning monitoring and it's. The way I read this is.
- 2:54:33Almost as though Harris County is going to dictate to me how
- 2:54:38the defendant should be monitored, which is not even
- 2:54:42close to reality is I don't understand why they would infer
- 2:54:47that. Maybe I'm reading that wrong,
- 2:54:50but this court's not going to be bound by anything Harris County
- 2:54:56does unless this court approves of it and I don't understand it.
- 2:55:03Maybe that's just the way they they write things and it's, it
- 2:55:08can be read incorrectly, but are there any issues about any type
- 2:55:15of monitoring that we need on this so?
- 2:55:20They're looking for the. False.
- 2:55:23Number what bothers me. About it.
- 2:55:26Is that the defendant? Is.
- 2:55:30Comes into this into this city is not from this city from Las
- 2:55:34Vegas of all places and it and is according to the allegations
- 2:55:41in the indictment, attempting to embezzle or steal money and a
- 2:55:49scheme of deception on the West End of the town where And there
- 2:56:00are some things I just don't understand about what's why
- 2:56:06someone from Las Vegas decides to come into this city to
- 2:56:11victimize. That's a bothersome thing I'm
- 2:56:13not through. I'm not through at least and I
- 2:56:17want to know as much about him so that the people in this silly
- 2:56:23this county are safe from outsiders who decide that we are
- 2:56:29right for victimization. I don't like that.
- 2:56:33And we're not talking about a small amount here.
- 2:56:36This is a third degree family's debt, which means the value is
- 2:56:40$30,000 or more. Plus we've got an Harris County
- 2:56:46face that is pending where the defendant had a criminal matter
- 2:56:57dealt with there. Are there any disease?
- 2:57:06It's been a half a year. Nothing's moving.
- 2:57:08I'm going to move one way or the other on this.
- 2:57:11I mean, is, are there any conditions that we need to add
- 2:57:16to the defendant's pre trial supervisions to ensure the
- 2:57:22safety of the community? Apologize, Judge.
- 2:57:28I don't know what the current conditions of his bond are.
- 2:57:30I don't even really. The only thing I know is that
- 2:57:35there's a $100,000 surety bond here in the file.
- 2:57:41But so between the two defendants, this is the only
- 2:57:46individual that has a record and I have genuine concerns.
- 2:57:53That. This offense is committed while
- 2:57:56he just started a probation out of Harris County.
- 2:58:00I do appreciate that they at least ordered a monitor.
- 2:58:06What was it like you? What was the offense to dictate
- 2:58:09your term? Yeah.
- 2:58:09What was the offense out of Harris County again?
- 2:58:12It started out as a second degree.
- 2:58:14Tampering. The records, but he ended up
- 2:58:16leading to a third degree in attempt.
- 2:58:21And I. Placed them on four years
- 2:58:23deferred probation. Can you tell me a little more
- 2:58:25what record? What are the records?
- 2:58:27I don't know anything about it, Judge.
- 2:58:28I just know what was reported to me on the NCIC report that we
- 2:58:34have. Do you have an an indictment
- 2:58:37from? No, Sir, I do not.
- 2:58:39I I don't have anything other than a call.
- 2:58:41'S number and what the? The end result was.
- 2:58:44I'm going to. Need to reach out to.
- 2:58:46Harris. County to find out more
- 2:58:48information. You do have AGPS device on you
- 2:58:53who's monitored? Is that being monitored out of
- 2:58:54Harris County or yes? On condition shows that we have
- 2:58:59system as. You could say he's monitored.
- 2:59:02He used to, he used to have Agps from Jefferson County and then
- 2:59:07yeah, two, he. Ended up having two of them then
- 2:59:10right so now? He only have one because the
- 2:59:12Harris County cut off the Jefferson County 1 they did.
- 2:59:15What? They cut off it.
- 2:59:18Oh, here, Here's the thing, Judge, let me ask you this Why?
- 2:59:22We're going to get this. Did they do it without our
- 2:59:26permission, without our knowledge?
- 2:59:27That's kind of rude if that would happen, and that would be
- 2:59:30very unprofessional. But I don't think that's what
- 2:59:33happened. This this.
- 2:59:34And I can understand. You don't have two, you don't
- 2:59:37need 2 GPS devices if if responsible monitoring is being
- 2:59:41done by one or the other. But the point is, is that we
- 2:59:45don't know what Harris County is doing.
- 2:59:47They can dismiss their case tomorrow and then the GPS falls
- 2:59:50off and then we don't have AGPS. What I want?
- 2:59:53To know is to make sure that the defendant is being monitored at
- 2:59:58all times and if there's a change in the monitoring, we
- 3:00:02have a professional courtesy. Just all right to know since
- 3:00:06everybody is Harris County is aware.
- 3:00:08We there's something here in Jefferson County that's pending
- 3:00:12and us for Harris County, that's all.
- 3:00:15I just want to make sure that we're all on the same page and
- 3:00:18if there is a change, all parties are are to know about it
- 3:00:24as soon as possible so that he doesn't fall through the cracks
- 3:00:28as it were. That's that's all.
- 3:00:31That's not a lot, that's not anything to ask for.
- 3:00:33That's only the right thing to do every As far as to his
- 3:00:37probationary terms, where those are monitored, whether that's
- 3:00:41here in Harris County or if it's.
- 3:00:43Been. Transferred to the other states,
- 3:00:46I don't know. I don't know the answer to that
- 3:00:48many years. Does he come to Harris County to
- 3:00:52reporter or is he courtesy supervision in Las Vegas?
- 3:00:57Do you know from Harris County is did Harris County transfer it
- 3:01:00over to Las Vegas for Las Vegas people to monitor or does he
- 3:01:04have to come into Harris County every month?
- 3:01:07I don't think that would be logical, right I?
- 3:01:13Think he was monitored by Pete? Probation was transferred to Las
- 3:01:25Vegas, OK. Courtesy supervision.
- 3:01:29That's normal. OK, so the other ones, Las Vegas
- 3:01:36monitors the only. Issue.
- 3:01:40Is. That.
- 3:01:43The monitoring. From Jefferson County needs to
- 3:01:47be aware that if there is an issue they and Las Vegas
- 3:01:52monitoring need to communicate and open lines of communication
- 3:01:58so that if there's a change in the status in any way we don't
- 3:02:03find out about it a year later we find out immediately since
- 3:02:08Jefferson County. And, and I'm going to ask you if
- 3:02:13you'd be so kind, ma'am, to make sure that is done because I can
- 3:02:17say, you know, I'm not going to let him be curt.
- 3:02:20I'm, I'm going to do it now. But as long as we stay in
- 3:02:24communication, if we don't, then he's going to have to come into
- 3:02:30Jefferson County every month to do report, which I'd rather not
- 3:02:37do, but I had. But we're not aware of where the
- 3:02:44consistency and the communication lines are
- 3:02:48connecting with each other. Everybody's, everyone needs to
- 3:02:51be in the same on the loop, please.
- 3:02:54And we need to get this accomplished immediately so that
- 3:02:59there's not a lapse in our supervision because something,
- 3:03:04if something happens, if he's not following the rules in Las
- 3:03:08Vegas, how do we know? We have to trust Las Vegas to
- 3:03:11tell us. And if they're not going to be
- 3:03:14willing to do that, then he's going to come over here and my
- 3:03:18and and report every month, which is not practical.
- 3:03:25Yes, that's not what I want to do.
- 3:03:29Thank you, Judge. Let's let's get it two weeks to
- 3:03:32figure this out. OK.
- 3:03:34And and I just want to know he didn't have to be here.
- 3:03:37We just everybody needs to know about everybody being on the
- 3:03:43same page. The Harris.
- 3:03:45County probation is 4 years probation, so they're not going
- 3:03:48to dismiss the case in a short time.
- 3:03:51Understand. Yeah, so he understand, but I.
- 3:03:53Just don't want I want Jeff. I just want Jefferson County to
- 3:03:57make sure that we know if something happens in Las Vegas,
- 3:04:00we don't find out about it a year later.
- 3:04:03We need to know immediately if it affects our supervision over
- 3:04:08him. And, and what do you want to do
- 3:04:12on your next event? What's the next event?
- 3:04:15Are we going to, do we put it on the trial docket or do you want
- 3:04:18to cup a few more weeks to try to figure this out?
- 3:04:21That's your. Call.
- 3:04:24Because it's it's a half a year old, but I can give you some
- 3:04:27more time. How about reset one more time,
- 3:04:30OK? How much time 1.
- 3:04:32Or two months is how about? Is five weeks good?
- 3:04:36Yeah. Yeah, OK.
- 3:04:39We've. Reset 5 weeks.
- 3:04:40Thank you for announcement. Thank you.
- 3:04:42OK. Gregorio
- 3:05:07looking at this file. And.
- 3:05:10This was assigned to somebody else previous is longer with us
- 3:05:14and the first amended motion to revoke probation which is
- 3:05:17alleged in this January 28th, 26th administrative hearing has
- 3:05:22not been filed yet. So we can either deal with it
- 3:05:28without filing it or I'll. Get it taken.
- 3:05:30Care of. Before.
- 3:05:32I What's the master plan? So.
- 3:05:37Mr. Flores blew a .068 into his interlock.
- 3:05:41And he did. Submit to a follow up.
- 3:05:43Test so it's unable to determine if he was using alcohol, if he
- 3:05:47drank alcohol or if it was an alcohol contaminant recommending
- 3:05:52that he obtain a SCRAM device and Lulu of the interlock.
- 3:05:55So it's going to be a continuous monitoring of his alcohol
- 3:05:58consumption. At any.
- 3:06:00OK, so when we do a a 068, what's the normal protocol?
- 3:06:06What are they required to do as as mandated by their terms of
- 3:06:12release? He would have needed to submit
- 3:06:13to a follow up test because if it was.
- 3:06:16Alcohol it would have. Stayed OK and they're and
- 3:06:18they're and they know that yes why didn't.
- 3:06:23I was my first first. Time.
- 3:06:27I mean, are they told? Yes, Mr. Flores should have
- 3:06:31known. How should he even know?
- 3:06:35Addressed. It with him and oh you.
- 3:06:37Did well I when I. Mentioned it that I was going to
- 3:06:39be following this first amended. He said that.
- 3:06:42He should have admitted to knowing that he should have
- 3:06:45submitted to the follow up test. Why didn't you do it?
- 3:06:48I didn't do. It at the moment I was, you
- 3:06:50know, just turned off. I just turned it off and I just,
- 3:06:53I didn't turn it back on. I didn't, I didn't reacted.
- 3:06:58Because I've been having the interlock for over 2 years.
- 3:07:01I mean, I've been having it for two years exactly.
- 3:07:03So I was just, you know, the first thing I mean, I didn't
- 3:07:06think nothing of it and I got complacency.
- 3:07:09And I mean, there's no excuses of what I did or what I didn't
- 3:07:12do. But I'm.
- 3:07:13Just, well, it doesn't make any sense.
- 3:07:26It's just you. You made a choice not to follow
- 3:07:28the rules. No, Sir, you didn't know you
- 3:07:31were supposed to have a follow up, he says.
- 3:07:35He says you were told of the. You were in test itself.
- 3:07:39Yeah, yeah, 068 there's supposed to be a follow up Yes Sir, but
- 3:07:43he know he knew that when was he told that if there is a.
- 3:07:48If it that. Happens he has to have a follow
- 3:07:50up. Who told who tells them that?
- 3:07:52Because I don't know practically how that works.
- 3:07:54I just know there were requirements, I just don't know
- 3:07:56how they're conveyed to the defender.
- 3:07:58He should have been notified whenever the analog ma'am.
- 3:08:02Well, who would have done that? You have it through Smart start.
- 3:08:05Smart start. Well, they didn't.
- 3:08:08Tell you. But.
- 3:08:10Honest to you with your honor, I just didn't think of them.
- 3:08:14Nothing, nothing. To be honest with you, I didn't
- 3:08:17I wasn't I didn't react to it towards it.
- 3:08:20You know, all this said all I said when I blew this, said one.
- 3:08:25And. I was.
- 3:08:27Just, you know. Is this just being held open
- 3:08:35above the entire piece or Windows has expired?
- 3:08:3927th February 27th. It was extended two years to
- 3:08:46align with the DWI he got. Well The thing is that the the
- 3:09:07conditions of probation that he signs and he was aware of and
- 3:09:12that are ordered when it comes to alcohol it states don't be
- 3:09:16don't become intoxicated, doesn't say don't use any
- 3:09:24alcohol. So how does he know at a .68 if
- 3:09:31it's not deemed intoxication that he has to do a follow up?
- 3:09:36Where's that ordered it's? Part of.
- 3:09:39The the conditions of the interlock.
- 3:09:42The where are those? Conditions of interlock, I don't
- 3:09:46have them. I never have seen such as only
- 3:09:48conditions, but the instructions so well, I've never seen such.
- 3:09:52I don't know how this is what he gets, I'm sorry, and everybody
- 3:09:55else gets no Sir, but that's how to read the report.
- 3:09:59So it says. That without an.
- 3:10:04Follow up. Test.
- 3:10:04You can't. Determine if it was alcohol or
- 3:10:06an alcohol contaminant and where is 4 his back
- 3:10:27situation? Where does I think that follow
- 3:10:31up the list of things? If it's a .068, where in that
- 3:10:37document where would a person on probation go?
- 3:10:41Oh oh, this says I've got to do this next.
- 3:10:45I'm not. Talking to you, not talking to
- 3:10:47her. And.
- 3:10:49So that there's, I mean we got a issue here and it's if it's a
- 3:10:54gap that we need to fill in, you know, every, we always see a
- 3:11:00unique set of circumstances. I think the first issue was his
- 3:11:04requirement. When it's a .68 of anybody to
- 3:11:07submit to a follow up test, where does it show say that he
- 3:11:10would he would need to submit to the following test?
- 3:11:13That would be to. Operate his vehicle.
- 3:11:19He did six hours later though, didn't he?
- 3:11:21Six hours later he did it. The vehicle is frozen for six
- 3:11:24hours, is that right? Is that what happened?
- 3:11:27Yes. Well, So what?
- 3:11:29Did you do just sit around or no I just.
- 3:11:32No, I waited. Till for a few hours later and
- 3:11:35come back. Has it started?
- 3:11:37No, Sir. To be honest with you, yeah,
- 3:11:39that'd. Be a good thing.
- 3:11:39Whenever you blow is basically just say it's a warning.
- 3:11:43It's a warning. That's it.
- 3:11:45Well, she says that. It freezes.
- 3:11:46You can't start your car for six hours, is that right?
- 3:11:49Wouldn't be able to start the car until he blows again.
- 3:11:52Without any alcohol. In the breath he would need to
- 3:11:54blow a. Zero before he could start the
- 3:11:56car. That's the point though.
- 3:11:58The car, it was frozen, right? You couldn't start it
- 3:12:03immediately. So what did you do?
- 3:12:06To be honest with you, yeah. Be honest with me.
- 3:12:12Yeah. What happened?
- 3:12:13I just kept on living my. Day the the way that and then
- 3:12:18went. Back to the car.
- 3:12:19Later to start it. Yes Sir.
- 3:12:22Like 6 hours later or something. Yes Sir.
- 3:12:25OK, so you were at home? Yes, Sir, I'll see that.
- 3:12:28Oh. I show it was held.
- 3:12:31In advance and that this we were setting up for a review.
- 3:12:33It's still practically works. But judge here's there's the
- 3:12:37problem I have and it's I agree there's a violation here, but
- 3:12:42this man was placed on probation in February of 2025 for 10 years
- 3:12:47and we're past that 10 years. You said that we that was 2015.
- 3:12:52Sorry, sorry, 2015 for 10 years and we're we're past that.
- 3:12:57Is there a motion? Filed and there was a motion
- 3:12:59filed and it's held in advance but you still as it was extended
- 3:13:02two years yes but you can't I cannot file a motion once it's
- 3:13:08even if it's held in advance because that probation has
- 3:13:10original probation has expired it doesn't hold it open for all
- 3:13:14the violations I don't believe according to the law now he did
- 3:13:17violate his probation he's on a misdemeanor that he got in 2025
- 3:13:21I believe for two years but he still got a violation on he's
- 3:13:25got to deal with down the hall but.
- 3:13:27I'm not sure that. What we can do with this?
- 3:13:36Was it ever actually extended? I mean, I know it's been held in
- 3:13:38advance the whole time, but I don't see it on the board.
- 3:13:42I don't see it in accurate change.
- 3:13:43This thing, I didn't see one in here.
- 3:13:46I was looking. It just says it's entirely held
- 3:13:49in advance back on. May. 14th to 25.
- 3:13:54June. 15th says held in advance review.
- 3:13:56I guess it could. Have been holding one.
- 3:13:59Yeah, but I don't know if you can extend it for two years on a
- 3:14:0210 year probation on the deferred for injury.
- 3:14:05You can with like financial stuff sure go past 10.
- 3:14:11I used to think you could. And I think.
- 3:14:13That I've learned you could. Well, it's.
- 3:14:22Just. If I'm as long as a motion is
- 3:14:26filed before the 10 years that tolls things, it tolls, it
- 3:14:32tolls, it tolls giving him a sentence, but it does.
- 3:14:36I don't think you can actually. We can't amend after it's
- 3:14:40expired or would have expired. We cannot amend a motion to
- 3:14:43revoke. We've been through this.
- 3:14:47New valves. Yeah, we've been through this
- 3:14:49with new. We've been through this.
- 3:14:50So who's amending the motion to revoke?
- 3:14:53Well, we've. Asked for a first amended,
- 3:14:54otherwise we don't have anything really.
- 3:14:56We got some administrator hearing here.
- 3:14:59I guess you can. I don't know if you can do it
- 3:15:01for administrative violations or not sure that's that's my
- 3:15:07problem I have is. I'm not sure.
- 3:15:09This is the right time we're going to stop and do research
- 3:15:14Yes, Sir. Could everybody look into it
- 3:15:16Yes, Sir. We have just a week or two to
- 3:15:18kind of look at it Yeah, You live in growth.
- 3:15:22Yes. Oh, OK, you're.
- 3:15:23Local. No.
- 3:15:26I don't. I'm going to come.
- 3:15:28Back next week. Can y'all look into it Michael?
- 3:15:32Mr. Lehrer. Can y'all look?
- 3:15:33Into it and come back next Wednesday.
- 3:15:37Yes, Sir, and see. What will?
- 3:15:39Next. Wednesday.
- 3:15:40Yeah, it's Wednesday. Thanks.
- 3:15:43Because I want to know. I mean, if he doesn't need to be
- 3:15:46on probation any longer, that's another thing.
- 3:15:48Yes, Sir, that's we don't need people on probation longer than
- 3:15:54necessary. My theory OK.
- 3:16:00All right. Friends, let's pay one last
- 3:16:02visit to Judge Simpson before we most likely head off to Dungeon
- 3:16:06Court. Or not.
- 3:16:12At least once a week, as soon as I go to some feed, it's removed.
- 3:16:16Let's I don't have Dungeon Court queued up yet, so let's do this.
- 3:16:22Let's go to Judge Anne's alone for a few minutes.
- 3:16:29Thank you so much. We are back on the record in the
- 3:16:32matter of the people of the State of Michigan versus James
- 3:16:36Albert Hall. File #25-22428 FH.
- 3:16:43Mr. Murphy also did advise Mr. Hall that any plea agreement or
- 3:16:47sentencing agreement could be negated by this potential
- 3:16:52violation of bond conditions. So.
- 3:16:55Mr. Murphy, how does Mr. Hall wish to Your Honor, Could we
- 3:17:00just enter a not guilty plea right now in regards to the
- 3:17:04violation? I thought.
- 3:17:06That there was going to be new charges stemming from the
- 3:17:09arrest. I guess it'll be.
- 3:17:11Yesterday, before Mr. Hall, I'm not sure though, but what I was
- 3:17:15going to ask for is that we set this.
- 3:17:18I don't know if. The genre was going to be going
- 3:17:19to continue a sentencing on May 1st or not.
- 3:17:24But I'd ask if you could just set this for the date of
- 3:17:26sentencing. And I guess, I guess you know,
- 3:17:29in regards to Mr. Hall, he wasn't behaving.
- 3:17:33Can I? Mr. Murphy, let me interrupt you
- 3:17:35real quick. The jail list does show that
- 3:17:38he's being arraigned or has been arraigned on a disorderly
- 3:17:41person. So it says 9:30 this morning.
- 3:17:45But I, I suspect they have not done that yet.
- 3:17:48But it does appear he has pending disorderly charges.
- 3:17:52I don't know that's what he was arrested on.
- 3:17:55Whether or not the actual charges against him, I don't
- 3:17:58know. I've I've watched the body Cam
- 3:18:01of his arrest. So.
- 3:18:03That's why. I anticipated that probably
- 3:18:06because I think that's what they were arresting him for and found
- 3:18:08out that he had bond conditions. And.
- 3:18:11Things like that. So you honor Mr. Mr. Hall was in
- 3:18:15the Haven. I I guess there was some, you
- 3:18:18know, in treatment there was some violation of their rules
- 3:18:23and they asked him to leave, which then sparked this this
- 3:18:28incident. I guess so Mr. Hall is he
- 3:18:32desperately wants to go back into treatment.
- 3:18:34So I was asking the court to consider while.
- 3:18:38You know we. We do have sentencing coming up.
- 3:18:40If you consider allowing him to be screened and and released to
- 3:18:43a rehab facility instead of just having.
- 3:18:46Him, you know. Stay incarcerated or again, I I
- 3:18:49know there's some issues in regards to how the actual
- 3:18:51process occurs because. I don't know if.
- 3:18:53You're honor why? To keep him in the jail until
- 3:18:55sentencing was done or not, But I think that in regards to Mr.
- 3:18:58Hall. Getting.
- 3:19:00Him in the treatment's the best thing, as soon as we can do that
- 3:19:02for him. Of course, if you already
- 3:19:04disagree with me, then obviously that's OK.
- 3:19:08So I. Will enter a plea of not guilty
- 3:19:11on behalf of Mr. Hall. I will continue.
- 3:19:15I will obviously revoke his bond.
- 3:19:18I'll set bond in the amount of 25,000 cash.
- 3:19:26I will. And that's both on the violation
- 3:19:33of bond condition and the underlying file.
- 3:19:39Obviously, we can have Mr. Post assess them for perhaps
- 3:19:43inpatient treatment, but I am going to keep the sentencing
- 3:19:46date on because his pending charge is probably a
- 3:19:49misdemeanor. I don't know that it really
- 3:19:51impacts the sentencing on the felony.
- 3:19:54So we will see you back for sentencing on May 1.
- 3:19:59Mr. Hall Do you want to be brought over in person for
- 3:20:02sentencing or do you want to appear via Zoom?
- 3:20:08I, I had a bunch of stuff that I was going to show you and I
- 3:20:16don't have that now. I not.
- 3:20:19Prepared my question. OK, so Mr. Hall, do you want to
- 3:20:23be brought over in person for sentencing or do you want to
- 3:20:27appear via Zoom? I'll do it in person.
- 3:20:35OK. So we will make sure.
- 3:20:37Your sentencing is in person and have you brought over and we'll
- 3:20:43see you back on that day. I'll set the contempt court over
- 3:20:46to that day as well. Mr. Murphy.
- 3:20:48Thank you, Your Honor. Thank you.
- 3:20:50All right, thank you. Thank.
- 3:20:53You. Have a good day Mr. Hall, I'll
- 3:20:54talk to you soon as. Soon as I can, all right.
- 3:21:06OK friends, we've reached that time on Friday or we do a fun
- 3:21:11thing if you're new to the channel.

- 3:21:21The Soviet era lighting kind of grabs your attention and adds to
- 3:21:25the ambiance. The carpet shining Crimson.
- 3:21:30Beautiful stuff. The grumpy judge, the crypt
- 3:21:35keeper who seems to walk the side for of the courtroom for

- 3:25:41Citation. Oh, she is here.
- 3:25:43OK. And your Jenna Jacobs, the
- 3:25:47state's alleging that on April the 8th at 9:13 PM Fayette
- 3:25:52Township, you were driving a vehicle under a suspended
- 3:25:55license. That's a first degree
- 3:25:57misdemeanor. Maximum.
- 3:25:59Penalty, six months in jail, $1000 fine and that you were
- 3:26:07using a prohibited electronic device cell phone.
- 3:26:19I was reading the. Report says alleging you were
- 3:26:21using your cell phone while driving.
- 3:26:24So that's a minor misdemeanor. Maximum penalties $150.00 font.
- 3:26:28Do you understand the two charges?
- 3:26:30Yes, you understand. Your rights as a defendant, Yes.
- 3:26:35How do you? Plead guilty means you're
- 3:26:38admitting it's true and and waiting the right to have a
- 3:26:41trial and have a lawyer by doing that.
- 3:26:42Do you understand that? Yes.
- 3:26:45Yes, OK. The officer says US 52 at the at
- 3:26:52the intersection of category 410 driver was.
- 3:26:56Using a cell. Phone while driving driver is
- 3:26:59suspended. She stated that she was on
- 3:27:01FaceTime. That's even worse.
- 3:27:04You're Facetiming while driving. Cell phone was observed to be in
- 3:27:08contact with her person as she was driving down the record.
- 3:27:11She was confirmed to be suspended out of West Virginia.
- 3:27:14Why do you have a suspended driver's license for driving?
- 3:27:17With no insurance. Well.
- 3:27:20He said you didn't have insurance.
- 3:27:21Now in Ohio that's not a criminal offense, but I guess in
- 3:27:25West Virginia maybe it is. He said he didn't have super
- 3:27:28insurance on you either. Is that right?
- 3:27:30Yes. OK.
- 3:27:33Well, can you get can you get your license in West Virginia
- 3:27:38reinstated? Because here's.
- 3:27:41What I'll typically do if you. If you.
- 3:27:44Can't get it reinstated. I don't give you a jail time.
- 3:27:47That's suspended if you do community service.
- 3:27:50But if you'll get reinstated, I'll just give you a fine.
- 3:27:52I won't give you any suspended jail time or community service.
- 3:27:58Now here's the question. Now what do you need to do to
- 3:28:00get reinstated? Get.
- 3:28:04Insurance. I have insurance and an SR22.
- 3:28:07I just have to go to the DMV. OK.
- 3:28:11Are you still living in Charleston?
- 3:28:13No. Where do you live now, Canova?
- 3:28:16West Virginia, OK. You're still in West Virginia?
- 3:28:20Well. You want.
- 3:28:23To come back then and show me that you got reinstated, then I
- 3:28:25won't give you any jail time or community service.
- 3:28:29How much time do you think it's going to take you to get that
- 3:28:31done? Monday you can get it done.
- 3:28:36Monday. Well, sometimes things take
- 3:28:38longer than you think, so let's go for the crowd.
- 3:28:40From that, I'm thinking a month, about a month we give you now,
- 3:28:45don't wait until 29 days and then start working on it.
- 3:28:49I mean, I won't give you time, but I want you to start working
- 3:28:51on it now. And I guess you know where the
- 3:28:54DMV is over on Madison Ave. right?
- 3:28:57Yes. OK, you know where it is.
- 3:28:59You need to go there and talk to those folks.
- 3:29:02And get it. Taken care of, do.
- 3:29:07You work no? OK.
- 3:29:09So you can come on these little Fridays.

- 3:29:24to delay the sentencing till May the 11th.

- 3:29:40I will have you sign a $500 signature bond.

- 3:29:47that says, I promise I'll be in court when I'm ordered to, or
- 3:29:50I'll pay a $500 penalty and you get a warrant issued too.

- 3:32:06that we know some details here. We have a case right now already
- 3:32:12passed to Charles Smith that is set for hearing on April the
- 3:32:1920th in this court. Yes.
- 3:32:21So I don't know whether this is the same gentleman or a
- 3:32:23different this series. It's.
- 3:32:26Pretty common. It's pretty non.
- 3:32:27Common. Yeah, he.
- 3:32:29Says. It's not OK, I just.
- 3:32:31Want to make sure? What's the?
- 3:32:36Same position. We're OK.
- 3:32:37With an OR. Bond if Mr. Smith.
- 3:32:39Willing to be assessed for treatment
- 3:32:53is an Ohio medical project that's.
- 3:32:54Acceptable. OK.
- 3:32:56Who? We got the offices in our.
- 3:33:04OK, I'm going to refer. Are you OK with going to a
- 3:33:07faith-based program? Yes and I'm going to refer you
- 3:33:11to Bethesda as a faith-based program and here's I'll give you
- 3:33:15the thumbnail stitch and you can talk to your lawyer about it
- 3:33:18more. But you're charged with a
- 3:33:20felony, Yes. Now what felonies mean used to
- 3:33:23be a lot worse, but. In the old.
- 3:33:25Days of all capital offenses and felonies are capital now.
- 3:33:30It means you can go to prison to get convicted of a felony that's
- 3:33:35dividing like misdemeanors, county jail felonies, you can go
- 3:33:38to prison, you're charged with a felony.
- 3:33:40You start out in this court, there's not some intervention.
- 3:33:44You're going to go on to the main courthouse in the morning.
- 3:33:49I attended for the common police court.
- 3:33:50They're the trial court for felonies, and felonies are
- 3:33:54considered so serious that your fellow citizens have got to look
- 3:33:58at the they don't even trust the prosecutor just to bring them on
- 3:34:01their own. You got to be invited by the
- 3:34:03grand jury. That's what a grand jury
- 3:34:06indictment is. Your fellow citizens look at
- 3:34:08them and say, yeah, that guy should be charged.
- 3:34:11So what's going to happen here or could happen?
- 3:34:14It's like you, you're going to get your treatment.
- 3:34:17You're going to stay here. You're not going to get the
- 3:34:20grand jury, you're not going to get invited.
- 3:34:22You're. Going to stay.
- 3:34:23Here, get your treatment. You do really well.
- 3:34:25The best outcome is way down the road when your case gets
- 3:34:29dismissed. You don't get a felony on your
- 3:34:31record. You don't go to the grand jury,
- 3:34:33you don't go to acting, although you live in acting, maybe don't
- 3:34:38mind going to acting, but you don't have to get acting to the
- 3:34:40courthouse. OK, So is that what you want to
- 3:34:44do? So I tell people this is a court
- 3:34:48for people that want to get cleaned.
- 3:34:49If you want to get cleaned, get recovery.
- 3:34:51I'm all for helping you. If you don't.
- 3:34:54Want to go down there and fight it out with one of the final
- 3:34:57police judges? So you want to stay here and get
- 3:35:01cleaned? Yeah, I've been.
- 3:35:03I've been clean for a year. I just, I had to relax.
- 3:35:06Yeah. So.
- 3:35:08Target of it is being honest, yeah, First step is admitting.
- 3:35:10You made a mistake. Yeah, I made a mistake and and
- 3:35:13so. OK, so I want you to talk to the
- 3:35:15representative from the feds and get something set up for
- 3:35:18enforcement in there to see them.
- 3:35:22What's going to happen is you'll come back to me periodically and
- 3:35:24I'm going to review what you're doing.
- 3:35:26OK, So they'll and a lot of times they'll text me like in
- 3:35:29the middle of the day or in the. Middle of the.
- 3:35:31Weekend. I've had people pulled out in
- 3:35:33the middle of the weekend and sent to jail because the way
- 3:35:36they were acting during treatment.

- 3:55:46the week a little bit differently from what we
- 3:55:48normally do. I would like to leave with this
- 3:55:52message that Judge Middleton posted at the close of business
- 3:55:58yesterday. All right.
- 3:56:02We're just do a little brief. Sign off here.
- 3:56:05Thank you. All Hello Mr. Lone Wolf, I see
- 3:56:10your channel from time to time and others who are watching
- 3:56:15this. This.
- 3:56:16Will be the last live stream from this courtroom.
- 3:56:19We just took the last plea. As I indicated this morning,
- 3:56:23this courtroom opened. About. 1970. 6.
- 3:56:29Or 70. 7. I get my.
- 3:56:32Days of years mixed up. When I first came here at the
- 3:56:36county in 1978, everything still smelled like new paint.
- 3:56:41And. New wood.
- 3:56:43Well, a lot of. People have passed through here
- 3:56:46and the intervening. Almost 60 years.
- 3:56:51And. It's time for upgrade A.
- 3:56:53Time for a refresh. And.
- 3:56:56Although we like. Things to be constant.
- 3:56:58They don't always. Remain constant.
- 3:57:03So we're going to be. Relocating it isn't really
- 3:57:07terrible. We're going to be live streaming
- 3:57:09when I see everybody next from the historic circuit courtroom
- 3:57:13and the historic side of the Saint Joseph County Courthouse.
- 3:57:18I have. A nice corner office with
- 3:57:20windows that actually open. I don't consider it to be my
- 3:57:24office. I'm just warming the space for
- 3:57:26the judge that succeeds me. But it has been a privilege to
- 3:57:32practice in here. Lots of memories were made in
- 3:57:35here. I spoke of some of them this
- 3:57:37morning. So by the time anyone else does
- 3:57:42come to visit, this courtroom is going to be demolished.
- 3:57:46And that makes. Me.
- 3:57:46Sad, but it will be refurbished and then in this nearly same
- 3:57:51configuration it will have new bench, new walls, new carpeting.
- 3:57:57It will be new and perhaps last another 60 years.
- 3:58:01So that is not like they're tearing it down.
- 3:58:06And. Everything in here certainly
- 3:58:08anachronistic. It's like from the 70s and I
- 3:58:12guess so am I so. We'll.
- 3:58:17Say what I said this morning. The three.
- 3:58:21Men I admire most, they caught the last train for the coast.
- 3:58:27That would be the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost.
- 3:58:30So we'll see you when we come back.
- 3:58:34In a new. Setting at least for.
- 3:58:36The next eight months. And.
- 3:58:38I wish everybody the best. Back on.
- 3:58:43The 21st.
