DEAR MR WALTON,


ON July 20, 2022 I RECIEVED MY FIRST EVER
GUILD NOTES AND FIND IT TO RE VERY INFORMATIVE. (VOLUME 47, NO. 1, SPRING 2022). ON PAGE 4 THERE IS AN ARTICLE ABOUT FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES SUCH AS THE ECONOMIC IMPACT PAYMENTS, ONE OF WHICH I STILL HAVE NOT RECIEVED AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS ($1, 200.00); ON PAGES 20-23, THE BEYOND BARS STORIES FROM FELLOW ASPIRING LAWYERS; AND ON PAGE 13 , THERE IS SOME INFO ABOUT THE LEGAL EMPOWERMENT TOOLKIT SERIES WHICH BRINGS ME TO THE REASON WHY I AM WRITING TO YOU TODAY.


I AM A WRONGFULLY CONVICTED, PRO SE, AND
ACTUALLY INNOCENT (CONTRARY TO THE EVIDENCE AND OUTCOME OF THE VERDICT). I OR MY DIRECT APPEAL WAS DENIED AND BECAUSE OF TIME LIMITATIONS, I WAS UNABLE TO APPEAL TO THE STATE SUPREME COURT. I AM NOW IN THE PROCESS OF PREPARING A MOTION FOR APPROPRIATE RELIEF (NORTH CAROLINA'S EQUIVALENT OF A FEDERAL HABEAS)

MR. WALTON, TODAY I AM REQUESTING ANY
AND ALL INFORMATION AND EDUCATIONAL MATERIAL INCLUDING THE LEGAL EMPOWERMENT TOOLKIT SERIES TO ASSIT ME IN OVERTURNING MY ILLEGAL CONVICTION AND TO ADVOCATE, INFORM, AND ASSIST OTHER MEN AND WOMEN WHO MAY HAVE BEEN WRONGED BY THEIR COURTS AND WHO ARE CONTINUALLY BEING WRONGED WHILE IN THE CUSTODY OF A WARDEN.




BY THE THE PRACTICE OF DUE DILLIGENCE,
I HAVE DISCOVERED NUMEROUS CONSTITUTIONAL VIOLATIONS IN MY CASE, BOTH PRETRIAL AND AT TRITAL. PLEASE EXCUSE ME FOR GETTING SO PERSONALIZED ABOUT MYSELF. I AM, HOWEVER, INSPIRED BY THIS, PLAN ON ADVANCING MY EDUCATION EVEN AFTER MY JUSTIFIED RELEASE FROM PRISON. IN CLOSING THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME OUT TO ADDRESS MY LETTER AND I AM ALREADY WITH EAGERNESS EXPECTING YOUR REPLY. HAVE AN AWESOME DAY!




Sincerely,

GREETINGS,


FROM ME TO you and Happy NEW YEAR! I DO BELIEVE THAT THIS COULD POTENTIALLY BE THE GREATEST YEAR EVER FOR JLI and ALL OF IT'S MEMBERS. I AM SO PRIVILEGED TO BE INCLUDED AND FOR THE OPPORTUNITY FOR MANY OTHERS TO KNOW MY NAME. I AM A WRONGFULLY CONVICTED SON, BROTHER, AND FATHER AND THESE ARE THE REASONS WHY I CHOOSE TO FIGHT FOR MY LIBERTY ALTHOUGH MY ILL- EGALY DETENTION MAY BE SMALL IN COMPARISON TO SOME OF THE OTHER SENTENCES THAT MY FELLOW MEMBERS MAY HAVE , IT IS STILL TOO MUCH FOR MY 12 Yr OLD SON AND 72 YR OLD MOM. 144-185 MONTHS FOR FAILURE TO NOTIFY A CHANGE OF ADDRESS AS A SEX OFFENDER IN NORTH CAROLINA. ALTHOUGH I AM A PRO SE, LAYMAN AT LAW WITH A DESIRE FOR LEGAL ASSISTANCE FOR MYSELF AND EDUCATION TO FURTHER ASSIST OTHERS , THIS IS NOT TO, THIS LETTER RATHER , IS NOT FOR THE PURPOSES OF MY CASE .




TODAY, I JUST WANT TO ASK SOME Q'S ABOUT JLI and GOALS THAT WE WANT TO MEET AND TO BE INCLUDED IN THE THINGS THAT ALLOWS ME TO OPENLY EXPRESS MY THOUGHT, IDEAS and OPINIONS.




My FIRST QUESTION TODAY IS: WHAT IS THE MISSION OR MAIN PURPOSE OF JLI? (2) WHEN WRITING TO JLI, IS THERE A PARTICULAR PERSON WHOM I NEED TO
ADDRESS MY CORRESPONDENCES TO? (3) BESIDES THE NEWS LETTER, ARE THERE ANY OTHER PAPERS, INFORMATION, RESOURCES, OR PUBLICATIONS AND MATERIAL FOR MEMBERS OF JLI? (4) I AM A NEW MEMBER (4 OR 5 months now). I MAY HAVE MISSED OUT ON SOME VALUABLE INFORMATION IN PRIOR NEWSLETTERS and ETC. ARE YOU ALLOWED TO SEND OUT BACK ISSUES AND INFORMATION THAT YOU INTENDED FOR USE FOR THOSE OF US WHO ARE BEHIND PRISON WALLS? AND (5) , I HAVE WRITINGS BY OTHERS IN PRINTED FORM AND SOME NEWSPAPER ARTICLES FROM MY HOME STATE OF N.C. CAN I SEND THIS IN TO SHARE WITH MY MEMBERS ? I WOULD LIKE FOR OTHERS TO KNOW ABOUT SOME OF THE THINGS THAT IS HAPPENING FROM MY VIEWPOINT AND I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW WHERE THEY ARE IS LIKE.




IN THE NOVEMBER 2022 NEWSLETTER (#6), I READ ABOUT THE LAUNCHING OF A PEN PAL PROGRAM WHERE LAW STUDENTS AND JAILHOUSE LAWYERS WILL BE ABLE TO PRACTICE AND INTERROGATE THE LAW TOGETHER! THAT'S AWESOME! PLEASE INCLUDE ME IN EVERYTHING ON THIS PROGRAM !




ALSO, IN NOVEMBER 2022 NEWSLETTER, (*6), [REDACTED] GAVE AN UPDATE ON A PRISON REFORM IN WISCONSIN. HE MENTIONED THAT THE WORD OF INMATE WAS CHANGED TO "PEOPLE IN OUR CARE". IN MY OPINION, THOSE FOUR WORDS WILL HAVE A DRAMATIC AND POSITIVE IMPACT ON BOTH THE ENTIRE PRISON STAFF AND "PEOPLE IN THEIR CARE". AGAIN, I'M IN N.C. I WOULD LOVE FOR MY GREAT STATE TO ADOPT THESE 4 LITTLE WORDS INTO OUR PRISONS SO THAT WE ALL WOULD SEE AND FEEL THE CHANGE IN ALL OF US. iWOW! WHO DO YOU SUGGEST THAT I WRITE TO TO CHANGE THE WORDING IN N.C. PRISONS FROM "OFFENDERS" TO "PEOPLE IN OUR CARE". NORTH CAROLINA HAS ALREADY ADOPTED SOMETHING FROM WISCONSIN. WAKE FOREST UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LAW, IN 2009, CREATED THE INNOCENCE AND JUSTICE CLINIC. THIS WAS AN ADOPTION FROM THE WISCONSIN SCHOOL OF LAW GUIDELINES OR PROCEDURES. I WOULD LIKE TO WRITE AND PETITION THE APPROPRIATE AUTHORITY TO
IMPLEMENT SOME POSITIVE CHANGE IN OUR FACILITIES.

THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME NOT ONLY TO READ MY CORRESPONDENCE BUT MORE IMPORTANT, ADDRESSING IT AND DEEMING IT RELEVANT. TAKE GOOD CARE OF EACH OTHER AND I'LL DO THE SAME.


HAPPY NEW YEAR !

FELLOW MEMBERS


HAPPY SUMMER! I'M A BABE TO JLI and ALSO TO LEGAL RESEARCHING. I HAVE SO MUCH TO SAY AND TO ASK, SO I WILL NOT DO IT ALL IN THIS ONE LETTER. IT IS VERY ENCOURAGING TO KNOW THAT I AM NOT ALONE IN EXPERIENCING THE INJUSTICE THAT EXISTS OUTSIDE/ INSIDE PRISON WALLS. WHAT LED ME TO BEGIN RESEARCHING MY OWN CASE, IS THE STORIES THAT I HEAR ON MOST DAYS ABOUT HOW MANY MEN WISHED THAT THEY DID NOT AGREE TO A PLEA. I WENT TO TRIAL FORTUNATELY BECAUSE I AM INNOCENT. I'VE BEEN INCARCERATED FOUR TIMES PRIOR TO THIS ONE. I PLED OUT BECAUSE I WAS MOSTLY WRONG. BEFORE I DO ALOT OF EMPTY WRITING OR AS A LOT OF STATUTES WOULD SAY "WAIST YOUR TIME", THANK YOU JLI COMMUNITY FOR YOUR CONVERSATIONS.




I'm IN A STATE PRISON IN NORTH CAROLINA. THERE ARE STILL BLANKET COVID RESTRICTIONS PLACED ON US DAILY. THE "SHORT OF STAFF " IS THE ONE THAT JUSTIFIES THE RESTRICTIONS. I'M IN A "MAXIUM SECURITY" PRISON BUT I'M IN "MEDIUM CUSTODY". I'M SUBJECTED THE SAME
PUNISHMENTS SOME OF THE TIME. I ONLY GET ONE HOUR OF YARD TIME PER WEEK ( IF WEATHER PERMITS) AND THERE ARE NO MAKE UP DAYS. TO HEAR DAVID F. IN OK; RICHARD A. IN OH; WAYNE V. IN NV; LATIF F. IN NY; MICHAEL KIN IN CLIFFORD PIN IL; JOSE C, IN IN; BRIAN F. IN TX; JEFF I. IN MI; CURTIS M. IN TX; SHAWN G IN MD; STEPHEN R. IN NC; GENUINE T.B. IN SC; MARK S.IN TX; ISAAC I. IN FL; SCOTT P IN FL; RONALD LA. IN TX; ERNEST L. IN AZ; MATTHEW G. T. IN TX; CHARLES C. IN NC; and JORDAN J. IN NC REMAIN RESILIENT. REMAIN STRONG. REMAIN PERSISTENT. BECAUSE OF YOU, I REMAIN ENCOURAGED TO BE JUST THE SAME!

I HAVE INCLUDED FOR YOU , A LETTER THAT I RECENTLY WROTE TO NCPLS REQUESTING ASSISTANCE IN OBTAINING MY COMPLETE DISCOVERY FILE. AS YOU READ, YOU WILL CLEARLY READ WHAT NCPLS SAYS IN ALMOST ALL THEIR CORRESPONDENCE IN RESPONSE FOR LEGAL ASSISTANCE TO PRISONERS IN NORTH CAROLINA I EXPECT MORE FROM THEM. THEY DON'T CITE LAW WHEN THEY DECLINE TO ASSIST and THEY ALMOST NEVER GIVE Any ONE ANY ADVICE IN WHAT'S THE BEST THING TO DO. ALL THEY DO TO HELP IS PROVIDE VARIOUS FORMS FOR ME TO FILE PRO SE. THEY SAY, AS YOU READ, THEY CANNOT ASSIST. I KNOW THAT I CAN GET BACK INTO COURT, BUT I NEED My DISCOVERY FILE. IT HAS MIRANDA VIOLATIONS. IT HAS EXCULPATORY RELEVANT MATERIAL. I CAN GO ON. THIS RECENT REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE FROM NCPLS IS JUST ONE OF 15 OR 20 REQUEST TO NCPLS IN JUST OVER THREE YEARS. THEIR RESPONSE IS TYPICAL and IT CONFIRMS YOUR STATISTICS IN YOUR LETTER. THANK YOU ADVOCATES and MEMBERS.




IN SOLIDARITY,

DEAR NCPLSI


IN FEBRUARY OF 2021 YOUR OFFICE (Redacted ) DECLINED TO REPRESENT ME AFTER REVIEWING MY RECORD ON APPEAL. IN JUNE OF 2022 you PROVIDED ME SOME INFORMATION ABOUT DISCOVERY AFTER MY LETTER ASKING ABOUT FILING A MOTION FOR DISCOVERY : THIS LETER TODAY IS BASED ON DISCOVERY and POSSIBLY BEING REPRESENTED BY YOUR OFICE IN OBTAINING RELEVANT DISCOVERY MATERIAL FROM MY FORM ER TEXAL ATTORNEY, ALONG WITH THIS LETTER I AM INCLUDING CORRESPONDENCE FROM THE N.C. STATE BAR' ATTORNEY-CLIENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM and (Redacted), REQUESTING DISCOVERY. THUS FAR, I HAVE RECEIVED VERY LITTLE OF THE VARIOUS TYPES OF DISCOVERY THAT HAS BEEN REQUESTED




TODAY I WOULD LIKE FOR you TO REVIEW MY CASE ONCE AGAIN. THERE ARE THINGS THAT WERE SAID OR NOT SAID AT MY TRIAL THAT CONTRADICTS EVIDENCE IN MY DISC - OVERY FILE. I HAVE CONSTITUTIONAL ARGUEMENTS THAT WERE VIOLATED AT TRIAL and NOT OBJECTED TO and My DISCOVERY FIVE WILL SHOW THIS. I DO NOT HAVE A QUESTIONNAIRE SO I AM


IN NEED OF ONE FROM YOUR OFFICE SO THAY YOU CAN REVIEW My CASE . JUST TO NOTE , I PERSONALLY NEVER RECEIVED ANY DISCOVERY FROM THE STATE'S FIVE . AS YOU WILL READ , I DID NOT UNDERSTAND OR KNOW WHAT DISCOVERY IS OR HOW IT RE- LATES TO MY CASE WHILE I WAS OUT ON ROND IN 2018. NEVER THELESS, THANK YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER TODAY.

Alexander Correctional Institution
Taylorsville, NC 28681


NCPLS File: 20-0184851


Dear Mr. House:


Your recent letter was given to me for a response. You included letters between you and your trial attorney, (Redacted), and the Public Liaison for the State Bar Attorney-Client Assistance Program. You have been trying to get your complete discovery from Ms. (Redacted). It appears that she sent you certain documents, an index of the other documents that she has so that you could request other things you need. You also sent her your brother's address so that she could send discs that you cannot have in prison.


I am sorry that it has been difficult to get your materials. We cannot help you further; the State Bar Attorney-Client Assistance Program is the organization that can help be a go-between for a client and his former attorney. I suggest that you keep doing what you're doing requesting materials from your attorney and going to ACAP when you need help. I'm sorry that I don't have better information for you.




You also explained that you would like for us to re-open your file here to investigate a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel claim. As you have reviewed the discovery materials you have, you have found contradictions between things in discovery and things that came out at trial. You also wanted your attorney to object to more things at trial.


Unfortunately, I do not see a basis for arguing ineffective assistance. In order to prove ineffective assistance, you would have to show that your lawyer made objectively unreasonable errors, and that there is a reasonable probability that the outcome of your trial would have been different if she had not made those errors. The things that you describe were likely not serious enough to have caused a reasonable probability of a different outcome. These types of cases are very difficult to defend. As long as the State can show that you were not living where your registered address was, and if there is enough evidence for the jury to believe that you "willfully" did not update your address, you can be found guilty. As Mr. (Redacted) explained, the State had enough evidence to show that you were not living at your cousin's house and that you did not update the sheriff with your new address. Under these circumstances, it would be very difficult to convince a court that there is a reasonable probability that you would not have been convicted if your lawyer had done something differently. Even if she did make some mistakes, there would probably still have been enough evidence for the jury to convict you.




I wish you the best of luck. Please take care.


Sincerely,
(Redacted)
Staff Attorney

1. What strategies have you employed to address the lack of access to a law library ? NONE AS OF YET . IT HAS JUST BEEN BROUGHT TO My ATTENTION BY JLI THAT My STATE IS CONTI - NUING TO DELIBERTLY RESTRICT ACCESS TO COURTS.




2. Describe the distribution of tablets - what did it look like? IT BEGAN AS A TRIAL RUN AT SOME PRISONS . I'M NOT SURE OF ANY FACTS OR DATES. ALL WOMEN FACILITIES HAD THEM FIRST and ONLY A FEW MEN FACILITIES, WHEN I ARRIVED AT MY CURRENT FACILITY, ALEXANDER CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION, IN JUNE OF 2021, THE TABLETS HAD ONLY BEEN HERE LESS THAN TWO WEEKS


a. What was the general response by those you know to receiving the tablets? INCLUDING MYSELF, THERE WAS A LOT OF HOORAY BECAUSE THEY WERE NEW and BE- CAUSE SOME OF THE CONTENT HELPED ALLEVIATE A LOT OF THE OPPRESSION HERE. IT WAS A SENSE OF ESCAPE . LIBERTY.




3. What educational features / apps does your tablet have? THE TABLET IS PROVIDED BY GLOBAL TEL LINK and IT HAS: EDOVO; CALM; WELLNESS, DIGITAL BOOKS, RELIGOUS LIBRARY; MERRIAM WEBSTER DICTIONARY, BIBLE GATEWAY; HOPE UNIVERSITY; GTL EDUCATION ; and HONEST JOBS.


4. Does the tablet contain access to a digital law library? If so what resources are available ?
Yes. IT HAS LIMITED OR RESTRICTED ACCESS TO WESTLAW. CORRECTIONS. IT HAS U.S.C.A., C.F.R. FEDERAL PRACTICE and PROCEDURE (WRIGHT/MILLER), PROPOSED and ADOPTED - ENACTED LEG. ISLATION FOR ALL STATES/ FEDERAL, POST CONVICTION REMEDIES, FEDERAL and NATIONAL SECONDARY SOURCES SUCH AS: HARVARD, YALE, COLUMBIA, and STANFORD LAW REVIEW, GEORGETOWN LAW JOURNAL, DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE JOURNAL, RIGHTS OF PREY- SONERS, CIVIL RIGHTS, CIVIL LIBERTIES LITIGATION. IT ALSO HAS ABA ETHICS OPINIONS, BLACK'S LAW DICTIONARY (2019), FEDERAL HABEAS MANUAL, BANKRUPTCY, TAX, MILITARY, IMMIGRATION, ASYLUM LAW and WE ARE RESTRICTED FROM CASES IF THEY ARE NOT Of AUTHORIZED UNDER WHATEVER SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT THAT I HAVE NO IDEA OF KNOWING . THERE ARE NUMEROUS RESOURCES ON THE WESTLAW LIBRARY THAT WE DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO. THERE REALLY IS NOT ANY WAY TO KNOW IF A CASE IS GOOD LAW OR NOT.




5. What kinds of instructions were you offered on the use of the tablet ( and law library Features if your tablet con- tains them )? BEFORE BEING ALLOWED ACCESS ONTO THE TABLETS, THERE IS A "USER AGREEMENT"THAT YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT OR YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO LOGIN. TO CUT IT SHORT IT SAYS THAT I'M RESPONSIBLE FOR THE TABLET; I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES; ARBITRATION ON CLAIMS BETWEEN ME and GTL; HOW TO OPT OUT; ad THAT I AGREE NOT TO ALTER THE DEVICE IN ANY WAY, ETC.




IT HAS INSTRUCTIONS ON THE LAW LIBRARY Y AS WELL . IFI AGREE " TO THE TERMS OF WESTLAW CORRECTIONAL: I Am GRANTED LIMITED LICENSE TO USE WESTLAW ; THAT WEST. LAW CHANGES FROM TIME TO TIME; ACCESS TO CERTAIN DATA MAY BE RESTRICTED ; I MAY USE IT ONLY FOR RESEARCH and RELATED WORK, MY INTERPRETATIONS OF WESTLAW DATA IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE; I MAY QUOTE AND EXCERPT FROM WESTLAW WITH THE APPROPRIATE CITE and CREDIT TO THE SOURCE ; I MAY SHARE DATA WITH REGULATORY AGENCIES , COURT OFFICIAL, and PARTIES TO LEGAL ACTIONS IN WHICH I AM INVOLVED, PROHIBITED FROM PRINTING WESTLAW DATA FOR DISTRIBUTION, and THAT THE AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY and CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA.




SEE 11. (a)




Q. How DO you OBTAIN COPIES . WE ARE HERE AT ALEXANDER, PROVIDED LIMITED LEGAL SERVICES. COPIES CAN BE MADE BY REQUESTING CARBON PAPER FROM THE UNIT SECRETARY.
b. What were you told is the process if the tablet or charger breaks? INITIALLY, I WAS TOLD THAT I COULD BE CHARGED WITH DISCENPIL DISCIPLINARY ACTION ($ 10.00) and LOSS OF TABLET PRIVILEGES. WE DO NOT HAVE ANY CONTROL AT ALL OVER THE CHARGERS . THEY ARE ALL IN ONE MOBILE BOX WITH THE ADJACENT NUMBERS FOR THE TABLETS TO BE PLACED. SINCE THERE ARE ALWAYS TECHNICAL PROBLEMS WITH THE TABLETS, THERE IS NOT




MUCH TALK OF REYNE DISCIPLINED OVER THE TABLETS. ONLY MISUSE OF THEM LIKE UNAUTHORIZED AREAS and USING ANOTHER PERSON'S TABLET.




6 . How would you describe your experience using the tablet in one word or sentence ? Now I see why it's hard to get my son off of his devices when I call him.




Q. How are you using Man using it ? I USE IT PRIMARILY FOR THE LAW LIBRARY OF COURSE. NEXT WOULD BE EDOVO and LASTLY, TO USE THE PHONE WHILE LAYING IN BED.




b. What are things you like about it ? MORE FOR OTHERS , I LIKE THAT THEY CAN WATCH A LOT OF DIFFERENT UPDATED MOVIES/ TV. FOR ME, I'm A CHEAP MAN. I LIKE THE FREE Apps. LAW LIBRARY, EDovo, RADIO, and SUDOKU.




C. What are things that are frustrating for you as you use it ? I ONLY GET 179 MINUTES OF LIBRARY TIME EACH DAY. TO LOGIN , I HAVE TO MAKE A SILLY LOOKING FACE IN THE CAMERA TO OPEN THE TABLET: POOR FACIAL RECOGNITION




d. What is one thing you wish the tablet could do that it doesn't already do ? FACETIME . I WISH THE WAS BETTER POLICY/ PROCEDURE FOR THE LEAST FORTUNATE TO BE ABLE TO SEE and TALK TO BUT THEY CAN'T BECAUSE OF
FINANCIAL DISABILITIES. THE MUST INDIGENT




e. What Features could you live without ? THERE ARE NUMEROUS Apps and THINGS THAT I PERSONALLY DON'T USE . THEY ARE THERE FOR OTHERS. THE WAY THAT I HAVE TO LOGIN IN EACH and EVERY TIME IS RIDICULOUS. ONCE I MAKE SILLY FACE , IT SHOULD BE ONCE . AND CLICKING "ACCEPT" TO THE TERMS AND AGREEMENT EACH and EVERYDAY IS ALSO RIDICULOUS. MAKE IT AN APP.




F. Can you magnify the screen and increase the size of text?
YES




7. How consistent is internet access? IN THE BEGINNING OF THE ACCESS TO THE TABLETS , THE INTERNET WOULD GO OF ON A FRIDAY and NOT COME BACK ON UNTIL MONDAY. NOW IT'S GOOD




8. What has the tablet enabled you to do that you were not able to do before ? THE LAW LIBRARY WAS NOT ON THE TABLEY WHEN THEY FIRST REGAN. I DID NOT HAVE MANY RESOURCES TO RESEARCH and LEARN THE LAW and My CASE . THE LAW LIBRARY WAS ADDED ABOUT 3 MONTHS AFTER THE TABLETS , HERE AT ALEXANDER




9. Have you ever lost access to anything ( like apps, activities se sources , etc ) on the tablet that you had access to prior ? FEEL Free to tell us the story of what happened?
Well yes One PARTICULAR THING CAME UP WHERE N.C. CUIRE. WAS TEXTING PRISONERS. NORTH CAROLINA C. U.R.E. IS A PRISONERS RIGHTS ORGANIZATION. I DON'T THE EXACT DETAILS, BUT KNOW SOMETHING HAPPENED OR THEY WERE WAITING THE PRISONERS and THEIR MAIL WAS CONSIDERED LEGAL MAIL. BUT NOW ITS NOT and THE MAIL HAS TO COME THROUGH THE MAIL MANAGING Company TEXT BELLINA" THE ESPN App and THE BBC App WERE REMOVED THEY WERE PROBABLY THE # 1, 2 APPS USED.




10. Describe what happens when one losses access to table
use. I'VE HAD MY TABLET TAKEN FROM ME BECAUSE
MY ORIGINAL TABLEY MAL FUNCTIONED. IT HAD TO BE REAL- ACED. SO WHILE I WAS WAITING FOR THE REPLACEMENT, I BUT PERMISSION TO USE SOMEONE ELSE BECAUSE HE SAID THAT HE NEVER EVER USES IT. WELL, ONE NIGHT WHEN THE OFFICER CAME TO PICK UP THE TABLEYS , HE NOTICED THAT I HAD CELL # 27 and I'm IN #12. THE NEXT DAY I FOUND OUT THAY CELLS 27, 12 WERE ON 30 DAYS TARLEY RESTRICTION . IT DIDN'T BOTHER EITHER OF US BECAUSE HE NEVER USED HIS and I ALREADY DIDN'T HAVE ONE . SO THE 30 DAYS WERE UP WHEN I FINALLY RECEIVED ANOTHER ONE.




11. Walk us through how you use the tablet for research. How do you access the online law library? I LOGIN By FACIAL RECOGNITION and PRISONER I. D. NUMBER , I PROCEED TO
THE LAW LIBRARY App, OPEN IT , AGREE TO TERMS, and I AM
ON WESTLAW CORRECTIONS. THERE'S A LIST OF NUMEROUS TOPICS ON THE MAIN PAGE AS WELL AS A SEARCH BAR. WHATEVER I AM LOOKING FOR I SELECT MY JURISDICTION ( up TO Balance) and TYPE IN MY QUESTION, INQUIRY, OR STATEMENT. THAT'S IT.




Q. How do you obtain copies ? ( answer to this I mistakeingly answered in 5. (a)




12 Prior to the tablet , how did you access information about the low ? Did anything change when you received the tablet? How? I DIDN'T HAVE ANY BOOKS AT THE TIME , SO MY RELIANCE WAS ON WHAT I HEARD OTHERS TALKING ABOUT SO WHEN WESTLAW CORE. ECTYONS WAS ADDED TO THE TABLET, IS WHEN I BEGAN TO REALLY READ, REARCH, and LEARN ABOUT MY CASE. NORTH CAROLINA PERSONER LEGAL SERVICES DID NOT ASSIST ME IN LEGAL AD- VICE OR WHAT I SHOULD BEST DO. THEY ONLY GAVE ME FORMS TO PROCEED PRO SE WITHOUT ME EVEN ASKING.




13. What changes do you see now that there are tablets? I SEE THE PRIVILEGE OF HAVING THE TABLETS BEING MISUSED BY THE ADMINISTRATION HERE AT ALEXANDER THEY USE THE TABLETS TO FURTHER RESTRICT and OPPRES THE PEOPLE IN THEIR CUSTORY. THEY GIVE US OUR TABLETS and THEN THEY CALL BOGUS "CODES" SO THAT WE ARE FORCED INTO OUR CELLS and ON MANY OCCASIONS, DEMAIN IN OUR CELLS FOR DAYS AT TIME. THEY ARE STILL
USING BLANKET COVID RESTRICTIONS BECAUSE OF THE USE OF THE TABLETS . MANY BELIEVE AS LONG AS THE TABLETS ARE BEING USED AS ANECESSITY, THEY, THE PRISON OFICIALS, WILL USE THEM AS A NECESSITY TO LOCK US DOWN .




a. What are possible opportunities and also challenges. HE NEED TO BE ABLE TO ASSIST ONE ANOTHER IS WHAT IT WILL TAKE TO OVERCOME THE RESTRICTIONS ON PRISONER'S RIGHTS and CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS. WE NEED A WAY THAT WE, ILI MEMBERS, CAN EFFECTIVELY and MORE FREQUENTLY
COMMUNICATE WITH EACH OTHER. ESPECIALLY US WHO ARE IN THE SAME STATES. LET'S ENLIGHTEN THE OTHERS ON LAW, PROCEDURES, PRACTICES, LITIGATION, WIGO MAY BE NEW IN ADVOCACY and WHO HAS QUESTIONS. WE ALL ONCE ATAN'T KNOW ABOUT NADA. NOTHING, LET'S USE WHAT WE HAVE TO MAKE CHANGES TO CHALLENGES and OPPORTUNITIES NEW LAW LET US ADD SUGAR / WATER TO THE LEMON OF NORTH CAROLINA.

14. YES. Do you self identify as having a disability? My LIBERTY HAS BEEN TAKEN BY A WRONGFUL CONVICTION .




Q. What tablet Features exists for people with disabilities ? TALKBACK FOR THE HEARING IMPAIRED, CLOSED CAPTIONING , and THERE'S SOME OPTIONS FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE MOBILIZATION DISABILITIES.
15. What solutions do you see going forward. As WELL AS THE HOPE OF JLI, I ENVISION TOGETHERNESS AS THE PRIMARY SO- LUTION ; and WITH THAT WE HAVE TO REMAIN, PERSISTENT , RESILIENT, STRONG, and ENCOURAGED. THE PRISON INDUS DUSTRIAL COMPLEX (PIC) IS ONLY AS POWERFUL AS WE GIVE IT . THANK You Tyler




EN LIBERTAD,
RODERICK
