Information request

Hello,
I'm Jodlyn and I wanted to know how I can find if my trial was video?
I need to show the Supreme Court, issues that were changed from what was presented into evidence. However the transcript states differently.
I would also like informatoin on how to present conflicting statement made by deputy while on stand the 2nd time duing trial , and the conflict from the first statment made.
Fact when I went and read transcript it shows that a different deputy took stand twice which is totally untrue. Thank you for any response you might have to these inquires as I have more pertaining to this same case . jodlyn

Simply call the courthouse where the trial was held and ask them if it was video taped.

YOU are representing yourself before the SUPREME COURT?

Alllllllllllllrighty then. Good luck with that.

I guess since I don't have the money to retain a attorney . I should just take up the BUUUUUTTTTTT. You have no ideal how one must feel to watch their life being torn up,and the legal system to be the ones doing it. thanks for nothing except rude selfish remarks

Selfish rude remarks?? My remarks did not help me at all--how is that selfish? I was asking a legitimate question---are you representing yourself at the SUPREME COURT level? And better yet, how did you GET to the SUPREME COURT level without going through the other courts first?

You did not provide the locale, state, or jurisdiction of your complaint. Nor did you provide any other relevant information as to what kind of trial it was---what the charges were, what was the final ruling of the court, and was the case appealed. If it was a criminal trial, your ATTORNEY that was court appointed for your trial should file an appeal based on the information you are poorly outlining in your posting. If he refuses to do so, I suspect you HAVE no case.

Selfish and rude? How about ignorant and misinformed?

Obviously, the point I was trying to make, or the question I was asking was are you SURE you are dealing with the supreme court? If this was a criminal offense, you should have had counsel appointed for you. You don't just RUN to the SUPREME COURT if you feel you haven't had adequate representation at a lower level.

I have no idea how it feels to be convicted of a crime I committed, yes. I notice you never stated you did not commit the crime in question. Pardon me for not crying you a river.

How would anyone on a message board know if your proceeding was taped? This isn't a psychic hot line. I gave you a truthful honest answer--just CALL your courthouse and ask if they, as a matter of policy, routinely videotape proceedings. If they say yes, you probably have to go through a mountain of red tape to get a copy of it--in fact, you may need a subpoena, even. They will tell you the requirements for getting it, if it exists.

You want rude? How about this? "All the time ya sat in the court room, did you SEE A CAMERA, Skipper? If so, then yes, you were being taped."

Better?

Typical entitlement attitude. What a burden to carry that through life. Errors in your transcript are the least of your worries.

I'm very very sorry for my rude remarks back @ you. My mind races and I can't think nothing comes out right I get so overwhelmed its almost hard to breath, so again I'm sorry.
I'am not guilty of the crime that has gone to supreme court. I did have a court appointed attorney that filed the appeal to the (th circuirt court of appeals. The court of appeals sent it to the superme court for futher review.
I was imformed at that time by my court appointed counsel that I was on my own with my case. I was also to file an additional grounds statement for directionary review, within thirty days. This was in August 2007 I submitted additional information breif . Never the less because I had no ideal what to do or file. I contacted the legal counsel that filed the appeal to see if they would give me any info on how I did and his assistant tells me I was to cite case law. I then went to library and did some research now not knowing what I was to research butt giving it my all. I learned that I was to or could to add to the issues that was the grounds for my appeal and also include cases similar to the grounds that was in my breif.
I need to say that I have had issues with the law and they really don't care for me. But I had changed my ways I had quit having anything to do getting in trouble. I moved 17 miles up a mountain to change my life. I need advise because I've really been abused by the system . I can't even explain all hell I've went through . From the cops putting evidence they say they found in my room, or them stating that they found things they never found. the incendent report changing or being added or subtracted from. I was denied a speedy trial but then that was covered up in favor of the court. my trial counsel tainted the jury , he also kept a jury member whom I knew didn't like me , he wouldn't object to evidence listed in report and shown with a picture being a different color and size than the one presented to the jury, and then the officer said one thing to change it and said another officer did it. oh my god their is so so many things, and not with just the deputys its much much bigger than I can type. And this has been going on since Dec. 2004 I really need to explain by mouth I can't stay togather in mind when I try to type.I feel like I need just to show some one and I can prove it I show mismarked evidence and changed transcript.
I can't go on any longer and god only know I want to but its so bad and so in human the law is not to be like this. Please please just let me explain it I'm not a bad person and I'm not guilty I really really need help. Grace I wish I could tell you all

The fact that the case has gone to the Supreme Court means there must be some basis for what you are saying. What I want to know is why did your attorney tell you that you are "on your own"? Have you checked with any legal services in your area? Just about every town or city/locale has free legal clinics. Also, you can post your situation here and an attorney may contact you---but not in the "message board" part of this site. *note* In particular, be wary of people who send you "additional information" via private message. This is typically done when a poster provides misleading and blatantly incorrect information and is embarrassed to post any further in a particular thread as a result of their previous "information" being proven to be incorrect.

But, I digress.

Many attorneys would be eager for a chance to go before the Supreme Court. Many also offer free consultations---have you tried any of them? Maybe if they see your case in detail ( tell them you aren't good with explaining details in writing--bring them PAPERWORK--if you can, organize it, so they can glance through it--and then just sit quietly and let them skim through it. That will do more than attempting at putting into words what the "problem" is.

Its not unlike how I feel trying to fix or work on my car. A part doesnt work, I can't describe it, the guy behind the counter is looking at me strangely---and finally, I take OFF the part, bring it TO Him and slap it down on the counter and say, "I NEED THIS FIXED", or "I NEED ONE OF THESE THINGIES". Thats what you need to do. Call an attorney's office say I need a free or low cost consultation. I have a case on appeal and my former attorney is refusing to represent me and I am interested in the possibility of naming him as a party in a lawsuit for nonrepresentation after the case goes to the Supreme Court. Try not to go into too much detail--because, like your first posting, its very confusing and anyone trying to figure it out just throws up their hands and walks away.

When you get a consultation ( if you haven't already tried this) just LAY the papers on the desk (if you have them and they are organized neatly) and ask him to skim through it. If that doesn't pan out, I would try free legal services.

I am, though, interested why your attorney at the lower levels isn't representing you now.

One more thing--while Im glad you say you have changed your life---even if you hadn't changed at all, that doesn't mean you don't deserve representation. Even if you are a mass murderer, that doesn't mean you don't deserve to be heard, AND *very important* IT DOESN'T NEGATE ANY FINDING OF GUILT IN THE PAST. What Im saying is, cleaning up your act is good for your future, but it doesn't support a finding of not guilty from the past.

Thank you,
There is no free clinics in Cowlitz County. Worst yet there is more that I'am afraid to post. This case invovles alot more and it involes alot more people.
I will also get a copy if I can the word for word document, problem with that something might happen when I start fishing for answsers. I'm truely afarid to go to court house. I'm going to do what you've said and will let you know. my e-mail is grantsj@yahoo.com
