 STATEMENT OF THE CASE

The underlying case involves a suit for damages related to the eviction of a holdover

executed by the real parties in interest.

The case originated in the 401st District Court of Collin County, Texas, Cause No, 401-

4116-2008, styled Robert John Wright v. EMC Mortgage, Fulbright & Jaworski L.L.P., Michael

Swartzendruber Esq., Johnny Todd (collectively “Real Parties”).

Real Parties in Interest were granted summary judgments, dismissal and sanctions.

Relator attempted to appeal the lower court’s rulings to the Fifth District Court of

Appeals at Dallas (“Respondent”). Relator complains Respondent is denying his right to appeal

solely because he is indigent and refuse to honor Relator’s sworn affidavit of indigence.

STATEMENT OF THE JURISDICTION

This court has jurisdiction over this petition for writ of mandamus under Section

22.221 (b) of the Texas Government Code.

ISSUES PRESENTED

A. Did Respondent clearly abuse its discretion by denying Relator’s right

to a plenary appeal by its refusal to honor Relator as an indigent so that
he may obtain a complete trial court record and exercise his remedy to
appeal at no cost?

B. Did Respondent clearly abuse its discretion by dismissing Relator’s

appeal 12 days before the Notice of Appeal was due?

C. Did Respondent clearly abuse its discretion by assigning the appeal to

Justice Murphy, when a material fact relates to a void ab initio judgment
rendered by Judge Murphy?

v
 STATEMENT OF FACTS

(Respondent’s refusal to allow Relator access to an appellate record limits Relator from

presenting this court with a full appendix, citations to the record, transcripts, or copies of original

filings and evidence.)

This case involves the eviction of a holdover that the real parties in interest executed

without legal standing and without a valid eviction order from a Justice Court in the county

where the property is located, and in the process, feloniously influenced a public servant to also

commit an unlawful act. (Apx. 1)

Relator’s affidavit of indigence was initially granted, but a contest was sustained based

on hearsay and without proffering any contradictory evidence or testimony. (Apx. 2)

Real Parties filed for summary judgment claiming that they had “no burden to present

evidence to prove the eviction was lawful”. (Apx. 3)

The trial court also granted a dismissal and sanctions for Real Party Todd after witnessing

Todd’s counsel present false testimony (with his client seated in the filled courtroom), that his

client: “Was not present at that location during the eviction. He was at a hospital in Oklahoma

with his wife.” (hearing transcript) In response, Relator entered into the record with his brief, a

copy of a high-resolution photograph identifying Todd at Relator’s home during the unlawful

eviction. (Apx. 4.)

To understand its rulings and the court’s statement that it was holding Relator to the

highest standards of a lawyer, Relator requested findings of fact and conclusions of law. (Apx.5)

This extended the due date for his notice of appeal to September 28, 2009. Real parties

filed a response directing the trial court to ignore the request, so it did. (trial record)

1
 As a precaution, after recording the history of extrinsic fraud by the real parties and

Respondent courts, Relator prematurely filed his Notice of Appeal within 30 days of the July 1,

2009 final judgment.1 (Apx. 6 Docket sheet)

On September 28, 2009, Relator timely filed his docketing statement, request for the

record with an Affidavit of Inability to Pay Costs. The affidavit included the statement: “In the

alternative and depending on the costs, Appellant requests this Court grant a six-month leave

until Appellant can collect the funds available (sic) to pay for this appeal”. (Apx.7) Relator’s

request for leave was also ignored.

The Real Parties informally contested the affidavit by letter. (Apx. 8)

On September 29, Relator received Respondent’s notice that the appeal was dismissed on

September 16, 2009; twelve days before the docketing statement and request for the trial record

were due. The dismissal cites Relator’s failure to respond to an August 11, 2009 letter directing

him to pay a $175 filing fee. (Apx. 9) Relator did not receive a letter and the court docket does

not indicate an August 11 letter. (Apx. 6)

On September 29, 2009, Relator filed a Motion for Rehearing. (Apx. 10)

On October 21, 2009, Respondent appellate court overruled the motion. (Apx.10)

On October 30, 2009, Relator filed a supplemental affidavit of indigence requesting the

court certify Relator as indigent. (Apx. 11) Affidavit was ignored.

On November 6, 2009, Relator discovered Respondent Justice Murphy is the former

Judge Murphy of the 14th District Court in Dallas, Texas, whose 2006 void ab initio judgment

was usurped by the Real Parties as a Writ for Eviction to evict Relator from his lawfully-owned

home located in a different county.

1
Relator wrote and mailed his Notice of Appeal while in California on case related matters, and did not have the
documents needed to attach a pauper’s affidavit. All of his travel expenses were paid by the California party.

 ARGUMENT and AUTHORITIES

An appellate court can provide relief by writ of mandamus if the relator establishes (1) a

clear abuse of discretion by the respondent, and (2) the lack of an adequate remedy by appeal.

E.g., In re Prudential Ins. Co. of America, 148 S.W.3d 124, 135-36 (Tex 2004) (orig.

proceeding), Walker v. Packer, 827 S W.2d 833, 839 (Tex. 1982) (orig. proceeding).

Before an appellate court determines to correct an abuse of discretion of the trial court,

the relator must discharge a heavy burden. The Supreme Court described that burden as follows:

The relator must establish, under the circumstances of the case, that the facts and law permit the

trial court to make but one decision. In order to find an abuse of discretion, the reviewing court

must conclude that the facts and circumstances of the case extinguish any discretion in the

matter. See Abor v. Black, 695 S.W.2d 564 (Tex. 1985)

To meet that burden, it is critical for Relator to briefly address the long history of the

litigation as intertwined infra.

A. Respondent clearly abused its discretion by denying Relator’s right to

a plenary appeal by its refusal to honor Relator as an indigent so that
he may obtain a complete trial court record and exercise his remedy
to appeal at no cost.

Indigency provisions … have long been liberally construed in favor of a right to appeal.

Jones v. Stayman, 747 S.W.2d 369, 370 (Tex. 1987) Courts have routinely allowed litigants to

proceed in forma pauperis. (see Walker v. Johnson; 312 U.S. 275 (1941). The federal in forma

pauperis statute, enacted in 1892 and presently codified as 28 U. S. C. § 1915, is designed to

ensure that indigent litigants have meaningful access to the federal courts. Adkins v. E. I.

DuPont de Nemours & Co., 335 U. S. 331, 342-343 (1948). Congress' overarching goal in

enacting the in forma pauperis statute: "to assure equality of consideration for all litigants.”

3
Coppedge v. United States, 369 U. S. 438, 447 (1962); see also H. R. Rep. No. 1079, 52d Cong.,

1st Sess., 1 (1892).

Here, Respondent trial and appellate courts sustained the contest or denied the affidavit

without contradictory evidence. If the trial court sustains the contest, we must determine

whether the court abused its discretion. Cronen v. Smith, 812 S.W.2d 69, 70 (Tex. App.--

Houston [1st Dist.] 1991, orig. proceeding).

Relator provided evidence that he is receiving government entitlements in the form of

food stamps. (See attached exhibit to Apx. 11) TRCP Rule 145(a) defines a party who is unable

to afford costs “as a person who is “presently” receiving a governmental entitlement based on

indigency or any other person who has no ability to pay costs”.

Denying Relator to proceed in forma pauperis is a clear denial of due process, abuse of

discretion, and creates a decision that is so arbitrary and unreasonable that it rises to a clear and

prejudicial error of law. It effectively bars court access to everyone but the wealthy, and adds

another impenetrable layer of protection between the victims and those Too Big to Fail, and

allows them to be Too Big to be Held Accountable. A trial court abuses its discretion when its

decision is so arbitrary and unreasonable as to amount to a clear and prejudicial error of law. See

Walker, 827 S.W.2d at 839; Copeland v. Ayers, 138 S.W.3d 652, 654 (Tex. App.-Dallas 2004,

pet. denied); see also Johnson v. Fourth Court of Appeals, 700 S.W.2d 916, 917 (Tex. 1985)

(orig. proceeding).

For thirteen years the courts have consistently failed to follow rules, laws and principals,

resulting in rulings that are unconscionable, arbitrary, unreasonable and clearly wrong. The trial

court abuses its discretion when it acts without reference to any guiding rules or principles; the

facts and law permit only one decision, which is the opposite of the trial court's decision; or the

4
ruling is so arbitrary and [**5] unreasonable as to be clearly wrong. Arevalo, 983 S.W.2d at 804

(citing Cronen, 812 S.W.2d at 71). The law mandating proper eviction procedures is not

discretionary and permits only one decision, which was the opposite of the trial court’s decision2.

A. THE CAUSE OF RELATOR’S INDIGENCE MUST BE CONSIDERED

Beginning in 1997, Relator was falsely accused of being in default on his mortgage at a

time when he, aside from his home, was debt-free with a credit score of 798. Relator alleged he

was not in default and provided incontrovertible evidence in support. The history of court

records fail to show any evidence of a debt or the identity of a true party with rights to enforce.

Relator recently discovered what was behind the fraud Real Parties have successfully

concealed. This new evidence confirms he did not owe a debt on his home either. That issue is

not before this court and will be litigated as a separate and independent action in the future.

Relator’s indigence is the result of countless successful frauds upon various courts and

extrinsic fraud on the part of Real Party EMC Mortgage and many others who, with court

assistance, practiced subterfuge by filing false pleadings and false statements with numerous

courts to gain an unconscionable advantage designed to run Relator out of money so they could

cover up nearly two decades of the fraud connected to Relator’s “void” promissory note. Relator

alleges this was done while the complicit courts turned a blind-eye to it.

In partial support, is the November 2007 certified transcript of the Texas Supreme

Court’s Advisory Meeting on Foreclosures. (Apx. 0) This transcript presents proof positive that

the banks, courts, foreclosure-mill law firms, lawyers, title and insurance companies, lobbyists,

Mortgage Bankers Association and others willingly assisted and wantonly participated in the

criminal enterprise responsible for the ‘theft’ of homes and wealth from investors and

2
Texas Property Code § 24.004

5
homeowners that ultimately led to the foreclosure and financial meltdown, and who were again

Bailed-Out at the taxpayer’s expense as they were during the 1980’s Savings & Loan Scandal.

The transcript baldly asserts, as is the case here, that the mandated paperwork required to

lawfully execute a foreclosure simply does not exist in 90% of the cases, stating:

[“So finding a document that says, “I am the owner and holder, and I
thereby grant to the servicer the right to foreclose in my name” is an
impossibility in 90 percent of the cases.”] (transcript page 27, line 16)
- Foreclosure mill attorney Michael Barrett.

Note: Mr. Barrett is the same attorney who came after Relator in 1997 with false
allegations that Relator was in default and Bank of America was the true owner
and holder of Relator’s note. Relator recently discovered that Bank of America
was never the owner or holder and therefore could not have sold Relator’s
promissory note to EMC as both falsely maintained in their pleadings to all
courts, including Respondent appellate court in 2001, and this court in 2002.

The remedy for when, as Mr. Barrett confirmed “There really isn’t such a document”

(Page 27, line 8), was revealed by Judge Bruce Priddy3 (See State of Texas v. Judge Priddy D-1-

GV-08-002311) when he added:

“They just create one for the most part sometimes, and
the servicer signs it themselves saying that it’s (sic) been
transferred to whatever entity they name as applicant”.
(page 28, line 10)
First American added:

“Well, the other problem -- Judge, this is Tim Redding. The other problem that
I see -- and, Tommy, you and I talk about it regularly – that we have a bunch
of servicers that are corporations or trusts attempting to foreclose on behalf of
other trusts using a power of attorney, and I don't think that's really proper. I
mean, we all kind of turn a blind eye to it, but I think that's an issue that's out
there that somebody could use to potentially attack a foreclosure.”
(page 33, line 5)

This Texas Supreme Court transcript suggests why many of the participants engaged in

mortgage fraud seek refuge in Texas. The transcript also brings credence to Relator’s belief that

3
In 2001, attorney Bruce Priddy declined to represent Relator citing the case was “too complex for my level of
intelligence”.

6
neither Bank of America nor EMC could have held him hostage to years of litigation unless the

court(s) were willing participants in the Ponzi scheme that allowed EMC to continue its proven4

“illegal” practices, that include, but are in no way limited to, the outright theft of Relator’s home,

equity, personal belongings and tendered payments on a debt he now learns didn’t even exist.

The sharing of these ill-gotten gains brought the power and influences to make the

recruitment of other wanton co-conspirators effortless - and guaranteed their illegal acts would

continue unrestrained through a seemingly corrupted judiciary.

The 1998 court had only one simple rule to follow. (Apx. 12) The court’s failure to

follow this rule has so far subjected Relator to 13 years of groundless litigation and forced him to

suffer severe irreparable harms and loss because no original “negotiable” instrument exists. As a

result, taxpayers and the district and appellate courts were also subjected to meaningless

procedures and trials. Union Pac. Resources Co., 22 S.W.3d 338 (Tex. 1999)

It is unsettling that the People of Texas, repeatedly raped and pillaged by rogue Bailed-

Out banks, sought “protection” from a judiciary that has been turning a “blind eye” to their

misery and outright theft of their homes.

Relator alleges that attacking Relator’s sworn affidavit of indigence is yet another

desperate attempt to elude justice. Respondent courts’ repeated denial[s] of the affidavit strips

Relator of all legal remedies and protections afforded under the Fourth, Fifth and Fourteenth

Amendments. Article I, Section 19 of the Texas Constitution provides:

No citizen of this state shall be deprived of life, liberty, property, privileges or immunities,
or in any manner disfranchised, except by the due course of the law of the land.

4
In FTC v. EMC et al (E.Dist. of Texas, Civil No. 4:08-cv-338) “According to the FTC, the companies
misrepresented the amounts borrowers owed on their mortgages, charged unauthorized fees, and used illegal and
abusive collection practices”. (Apx.13) EMC tried to collect more than $200,000.00 in bogus fees from Relator.

7
 B. Respondent clearly abused its discretion by dismissing Relator’s
appeal twelve (12) days before the Notice of Appeal was due.

Relator has no remedy at law if he is once again unjustly barred access to appeal due to

his fraud-induced indigence. Mandamus review of significant rulings in exceptional cases may

be essential to preserve important substantive and procedural rights from impairment or loss, to

allow the appellate courts to give needed and helpful direction to the law that would otherwise

prove elusive in appeals from final judgments, and to spare private parties and the public the

time and money utterly wasted enduring eventual reversal of improperly conducted proceedings.

Id. at 136, (underline added). Relator believes this case is both exceptional and unconscionable.

Now, we have Respondent trial court, in a blatant disregard for law, knowingly allowing

the Real Parties to unlawfully evict holdovers without filing a forcible detainer suit in the JP

Court in the county where the property is located as mandated by century-old Texas law5, and

which also raises the question: How did the four constables get paid, and by whom, if the filing

fees for the forcible eviction and detainer suit were not paid? Collin County records 1991-2008

show no listing for a foreclosure or eviction for Relator or his address. (Apx. 14)

Real Parties have already made sure Relator cannot afford competent legal

representation, discovery tools, court records and filing fees and he should not be prejudiced

further. An appellate remedy is "adequate" when the benefits to mandamus review are

outweighed by the detriments. Id. (In Re Southwest Concrete Products, Tex, Sup. Ct., 2009) (no

cit.)

Relator alleges Respondent’s dismissal, based on an August letter, is a repeat of past

behaviors by both the respondent appellate court and the real parties in interest. To wit:

a.) In the trial court, counsel for real party in interest EMC Mortgage certified
in three certificates of service that they mailed its motions to Relator on May 27,
5
Texas Property Code § 24.004

8
 2009. These three motions, sent certified mail return receipt requested, were not
delivered to Relator until September 11, 2009 – more than three months after the
fact – and effectively precluded Relator from responding to, or defending the
motions, which ultimately resulted in the granting of a voidable judgment.
(Apx.15)

b.) In 2006, after nearly a decade of EMC and their schemers litigated Relator
into poverty by making false statements to obtain property that EMC admitted
under oath they do not own (a first degree felony under Texas Penal Code 32.32),
forced Relator to file an Affidavit of Indigence. EMC contested the affidavit
which was sustained even though EMC proffered no rebuttal or evidence. When
Relator filed a motion for rehearing, the clerk stated the (lawyer) judge would not
be able to read the motion for four (4) months. Relator’s Motion to Vacate the
14th District Court’s void judgment was also ignored.

c.) Moreover in 2006, Respondent appellate court expressly acknowledged

and placed Relator’s appeal on hold pending the final outcome of his 2006
indigence status. Real party Fulbright & Jaworski conveniently waited until 4-6
weeks had lapsed to notify Relator’s Washington D.C. pro bono attorney that the
appeal had been dismissed due to Relator’s non-payment of the filing fee. Relator
and his counsel did not receive any notice from the Respondent appellate court,
yet that docket contained entries that two (2) notices were allegedly mailed.
Relator had also signed up to receive V-Notices to instantly notify him of any
changes to the appellate docket. He received nothing.

This court should have already caught on that a major fraud has been going on inside and

upon various court(s). The case history of the fraud against Relator dates back to the 1987

inception of Relator’s “non-negotiable” loan and exposes in detail just how deep and widespread

the fraud really goes, along with a list of the many accomplices involved. This entire baseless

litigation was best summarized in 2007 by the founder of a law firm. After hearing about the

case, the firm flew their three top lawyers to Dallas by private jet to discuss the case. Within 30

minutes of looking at the evidence, the firm’s founder declined to take the case, stating:

“There is so much corruption in this case by a bunch of crooked lawyers

– including your own – and all of your judges.”

C. The Respondent clearly abused its discretion by assigning the appeal

to Justice Murphy when a material fact in the underlying case is a
void ab initio judgment rendered by Judge Murphy.

9
 Relator avers the Respondent court has become prejudiced by Justice Murphy’s

involvement in the related case.

Relator alleges that in 2006, Judge Mary Murphy held a kangaroo court in the 14th

District Court in Dallas, Texas, to allow EMC Mortgage to pursue a judgment when she knew or

should have known by the evidence that the court did not have jurisdiction. Relator’s counsel

brought it to his attention that Fulbright lawyer Jason Fagelman had an interest in the case, as his

self-authored “Final Judgment” would make him a partner in the firm. Judge Murphy knew or

should have known the disturbing series of events and tainted circumstances that brought EMC’s

case to her court. Especially after Fulbright, in total disregard of the procedures of judicial

assignments, had, in less than one year, bounced its merit-less lawsuit against Relator around the

George Allen Courthouse from judges Ashby, to Sims6, to Stokes, to McFarlane; back to Sims,

to Murphy, and then to an alleged judge, lawyer Kelton.

Evidence of Fulbright’s power and influence surfaced earlier this year when the Wall

Street Journal reprinted a letter written by Fulbright & Jaworski offering a $500,000.00 bribe to a

person “if he could convince the Wall Street Journal to kill the story”. (See letter Apx. 16)

What judge Murphy knew or should have known, as the case was hallway chatter

according to substitute Judge McFarlane, is that in December 2004, Relator’s case, led by

Relator’s counsel, Bobby Rubarts of Hughes & Luce, went to trial in the 134th District Court7,

where EMC started the trial by announcing: “Your Honor, we made a mistake – EMC does not

own Mr. Wright’s home”. This statement was completely ignored by the judge and Relator’s

counsel. Relator didn’t understand the profoundness of that statement; that EMC was not the

holder in due course with rights to enforce at the time it filed its numerous foreclosures; EMC

6
In 2005, Judge Sims ordered the Wright case “back to trial”, but later ruled against Wright in EMC’s case without
a valid oath of office registered with the court or the Texas Secretary of State until June 2006.
7
Wright v. EMC Mortgage Corporation, Cause No. 02-8531-G

10
and its predecessor had been fraudulently invoking the jurisdiction of numerous Texas courts for

8 years, forcing Relator to act on judgments that are void ab initio – a complete nullity.

One which from its inception is and forever continues to be absolutely null,
without legal efficacy, ineffectual to bind parties or support a right, of no
legal force and effect whatever, and incapable of confirmation, ratification,
or enforcement in any manner or to any degree. Judgment is a "void
judgment" if court that rendered judgment lacked jurisdiction of the subject
matter, or of the parties, or acted in a manner inconsistent with due process.
Klugh v. U.S., D.C.S.C., 610 F.Supp. 892, 901.

After five days of waiting for Fulbright’s lawyers to mount some resemblance of a

defense, Bobby Rubarts took over on redirect examination of EMC’s key witness and corporate

representative, Annette Anderson, which recorded the following exchange:

Rubarts: (Q) “Mr. Wright was never in default on his mortgage was he?”
Anderson: (A) “No.”
Rubarts: (Q) “As a matter of fact, Mr. Wright actually overpaid his escrow
account didn't he?”
Anderson: (A) “Yes.”
Rubarts: (Q) “So, you saw Bank of America’s errors; but rather than correct their
mistakes – you just decided to steal Mr. Wright’s home and equity
didn’t you?”
Anderson: (A) (after a lengthy and nervous pause) “Yes.”

Within seconds of these admissions, Judge Ashby shut down the trial and forced Relator

into a fourth mediation against his will, stating “this is costing far too much money and the other

side has threatened to appeal my decision forever”. Judge Ashby made that statement knowing

it was false and acted with full knowledge that EMC was there under false pretenses and that the

court had no discretion to order Relator to act on void ab initio judgments. Judge Ashby later

recused herself without written notice and Mr. Rubarts withdrew, claiming it was at the request

of his firm’s ethics committee. This left Relator penniless, without representation, and too ill

from the years of trying to defend against the baseless foreclosure attempts by entities who:

11
1.) were never the holder in due course with rights to enforce. 2.) never had legal standing to

invoke the jurisdiction of any court; 3.) confessed no default occurred to trigger a foreclosure.

To be certain the above admissions did not spoil what had been a long-standing and

incredibly profitable illegal cash cow for EMC and its now duly defunct parent company Bear

Stearns Securities and all its collective accomplices, EMC’s admissions of guilt were expunged

from the court transcript. Relator responded by filing an 18-page sworn affidavit with the Texas

Court Reporters Commission, but no longer had the resources to travel to Austin to attend the

hearings, and the matter was dismissed. With the admissions of guilt now wiped clean, Relator

had to spend the last several years to find another way to conclusively reprove EMC’s

admissions. Some of those recent findings are referenced further below.

During the fourth mediation, Relator’s own lawyer repeatedly threatened him with the

fear of economic loss and depletion of assets every time he tried to leave without acceding to

EMC’s unconscionable and one-sided demands, and held under these threats for 12-14 hours.

(Prior to admitting at trial that Relator was never in default and EMC did not own the loan,

EMC was demanding Relator’s home - plus $202,000.00 in spurious fees to settle the case.)

Operating with a greatly diminished mental capacity, too ill to read the sham documents,

and knowing EMC was famous for breaching settlement agreements, Relator was forced to sign

the demands before he could leave. Petitioner planned to take EMC’s demands to judge Ashby,

but he was not given a copy. It was known by all parties that Relator had become destitute from

the years of legal expenses and loss of income, so a $20,000.00 teaser check was used as an

incentive to sign, and was to be executed upon signing. When Relator delivered EMC’s demand

letter to their lawyer, he was told the check was not cashable as there were not enough funds in

the IOLTA account.

12
 When Relator emailed his attorney to find out when the hearing to dismiss his case would

be, Mr. Rubarts responded that he didn’t know what Relator was talking about, as there was not

going to be a hearing. That was false. In March 2005, Relator was able to attend the third

hearing on an Agreed Motion to Dismiss8. When Judge Sims asked Relator if he agreed to the

terms of the settlement, Relator said no. Judge Sims later announced: “This settlement

agreement will not go into effect until I sign it – and I am not going to. This case is going back to

trial”. (It would be more than a year before Relator would be allowed to read EMC’s demands.)

EMC responded to Judge Sims by literally walking across the hall to Judge Stokes court

and sued Relator for breach of a contract with full knowledge they had issued Relator a hot

check and were acting on void judgments.

The next time Relator appeared in court was in June 2005 on EMC’s motion to compel

Relator’s third deposition. After witnessing EMC testify that Relator was never in default and

EMC did not own the loan, Fulbright & Jaworski’s lawyers stood before Judge McFarlane and

falsely stated: “Your Honor, Mr. Wright has been living in his house for free for the last 8

years”. (Id. Hearing transcript) Relator was too ill to properly respond and Judge McFarlane

told Relator to sit down and threatened him with jail time plus a $5,000 fine if he didn’t comply.

That same month, a Washington D.C. lawyer heard about Wright’s case and offered to

represent him at Fulbright’s video-taped deposition at no cost. During the deposition, Wright

and his counsel were presented with copies of EMC’s demands, directed to specified page

numbers and asked questions pertaining to its contents. Wright could not answer the questions

because the pages of EMC’s “secret” demands were all blank, except for the page numbers. At

the end of 10 hours of questioning, Fulbright & Jaworski had nothing to support their case.

8
An Agreed Order of Dismissal was never signed.

13
 All these and many other ruses were used to wear down and bankrupt Relator so EMC

could un-ring the bell and continue its illegal practices. But the evidence and truth remain.

B. THE FICTITIOUS LOAN DOCUMENTS EMC CREATED

Just prior to the 2004 partial trial, Real Party in Interest Swartzendruber sent an email to

Relator’s former trial counsel Bobby Rubarts, telling him that they had a copy of the “original”

loan documents and anticipated Rubarts would come by to examine them. When Relator’s

expert trial witness started examining the alleged copies and noticed the fraud, Rubarts quickly

snatched them out of her hands. Relator has since recovered the loan documents EMC created

and incorporates a few of the annotated pages in the appendix. (Apx. 17)

This court will notice that what Real Party lawyer Swartzendruber claimed to be a copy

of the “original” was a false statement. The documents are nothing more than a mishmash of

fabricated documents that show, inter alia, that not one, but two (2) lost note affidavits (“LNA”)

were created and back-dated 5 years before EMC falsely alleged they purchased the loan. (The

mortgage industry and its lawyers frequently create LNA’s to recreate an alleged debt after the

original toxic asset was intentionally destroyed, discharged by law, or allegedly lost.) The non-

negotiable instrument shows the loan was packaged into at least 3 different mortgage-backed

securities without duly recorded assignments; a signature that does not match the name typed

below it; four (4) different loan amounts; three (3) different loan numbers; loan papers filed in

two separate counties, plus an alleged assignment to the Resolution Trust Corporation.

According to these documents, it appears the loan EMC affixed its name to… was not

even Relator’s loan.

 CONCLUSION

It should be evident to this court that EMC et al had to run Relator out of money, get rid

of his lawyers, take his home for free, create a fraudulent title, sell his home for more profit, train

the courts to ignore the law and turn a blind eye to the evidence and truth to help cover up their

years of egregious crimes against him. Relator has, in good faith and with clean hands,

respectfully been trying to defend himself and his property in a judiciary that is fraught with

fraud and where his adversaries’ tyranny has maintained an unconscionable advantage both

inside and outside the courts. Relator prays he has provided this court with ample grounds to

refer this case for a more deliberative investigation or at minimum, request further briefing.

PRAYER

Relator requests that this Court grant his petition for writ of mandamus and order the

court of appeals to vacate its September 16, 2009 order. In the interest of justice and judicial

integrity, it should be obvious that Relator cannot get a fair court in the DFW area. Merely

remanding the case back to the same courts will only return Relator to forums he can prove - are

rigged to fail him 100% of the time.

Therefore Relator requests venue be changed to an adjoining northern county. In the

alternative, Relator requests Justice Murphy be recused and an equitable justice be assigned.

Relator further requests that this Court order the court of appeals to honor Relator’s

affidavit and allow Relator to proceed in forma pauperis with a 60-day leave. Additionally,

Relator requests this Court order the lower courts that all fees unjustly taxed against Relator be

returned to him, and to award him any other relief to which he may be entitled.
