"MOTION TO (AMEND) "EXHIBIT -F- AND REQUEST FOR COURT ORDERED HABEAS CORPUS ISSUED TO RESPONDENTS"'* EX PARTE GERY LEE SCOTT Movant - V. BRAD LIVINGSTON, EXEC.DIR. TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF CRIMINAL ^012014 JUSTICE-INSTITUTIONAL DIVISION (TDCJ). Respondents >©i Acosta, Clerk TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TEXAS: Now Comes,' GERY LEE SCOTT- hereinafter. (Scott) requesting permission to "amend" h is (Exhibit -F-; "TIME CREDIT DISPUTE RESOLUTION FINAL CERTIFICATION DECISION"-dated 11/10/2014 by (Kelly Enlae. 'assistant Director for Classification and Records.) Scott avers that he has attached the original sent to him on 11/10/2014 and received by h im on 11/22/2014. and request it be amended to his original C-371-O10342-0826520-D Application (From) the 371 Tarrnt County Texas Court. Scott also in h is Motion to the Honorable Court request that this Honorable Court of Criminal Apepals of Texas issue through "Order" a Habeas Corpus to the Respondents illegally restraining him. to release h im from his illegal restraint pursuant to Article 11.05 and 11.23 respectively, his. "only" means of immediate redress for relief of his illegal restraint. (1.) and by virtue of the "unconstitutional laws" enforcing his illegal restraint/(V.T.C.A. §508.145-§508.149). that the Honorable Court pursuant to 11.07. 11.05. 11.23- Order the Respondents holding Scott illeqally. to deliver h im from his illegal restraint to the Court of jurisdiction for adjudication of his claims he is illegally restrained by virtue of unconstitutional law arbitrarily abrogating his EARNED Good-Time and Work-Time calcul ated to his Flat-Time mandating his "release" to parole when the specific enumerated factors exist to exact Half-Time served to the sentence for trigger of release to parole. Scott avers that his 35 year sentence he has served 12 years Flat-Time plus his EARNED 11 years Good-Time plus EARNED 6 years Work-Time equal 29 years and certainly calculate over HALF his time served coward the sentence for release to parole as mandated by the Statutes to trigger Scott's release to parole. (See Exhibit "E" Time Calculation Sheet 10/17/2014)(Const.Amend- 13- 14- 5-)(V.T.CA.§508.145-§508.149). Scott avers that he is protected by the U.S. 13 Const. Amend- from arbitrarily abrogated punishment of "Involuntary Servitude" "EXCEPT [AS] A PUNISHMENT" towit the 371 Court nor the V-T-CA. §508-145-§508.149 specifically adress but instead clearly exact through V-T-CA. §497.002(2) there TDCJ clearly define it's understanding of Scott's "LABOR"(EARNED Work-Time) as ((2)"Reduce Department Cost---" a phrase enducted into law of the under standing in common and law lanquaqe to equal "money" which is the only understanding of a thinq that could reduce"cost''; thus renderinq Scott's EARNED Work-Time equal to the same and (2.) under the law of §497-002(2) by it's own language and definition creates Scott's "liberty interest" in his Work-Time and sets §508-145-§508.149 contrary to §497-002(2) where Scott would have a vested "liberty interest" in his Work, and Good-Time by virtue of §508.145-§508-149 "denying" Scott REVIEW formula of his Good- Time and Flat-Time equalling that review thus Scott's Good-Time by virtue of (3q) language of the Statutes place Scott's Good- Time into "new" meaning absent application toward "REVIEW" and Scott's Work-Time given "new" meaning through law of §497-002(2) as "reducinq cost for TDCJ" the Statute itself "creating" Scott's liberty interest in h is EARNED Work-Time'CAUSE an absurd outcome for Scott's EARNED Work-Time and Good-Time respectively as they relate to a calculated mandate to release on parole since the Statutes at issue mandate "only" release to parole or Maximum Sentence Date. Scott avers that since he can "only" release from TDCJ by (two) mechanisms enacted by the Statutes (serve his entire sentence to the maximum allowed bv lav/) or (parole) when certain enume rated factors triqqer release to parole- (see TDCJ-Offender Orientation Handbook pg- 56 l-(c-) ".--These offenders must- be released on parole- or on their maximum expiration dates.") this act authorized by §508.145-§508.149 (3g) catagory denvinq Scott Const. Amend. 14 Due Process of his EARNED Good-Time and Work-Time since the Statutes at issue (§508-145-§508.149 and §497.002(2)) are. certainly qivino specific value to Scott's W rk-Time in §4^?.002(2) and his Good-Time in §508 -145-§:)03.149 Where s£>4cific language dl the" "Statute -his Gds
