Applicant’s plea before the Court was not voluntary and respectfully asks this Court to 'G'ran`t‘ him file re’i‘ieftb which the i`s entit’i`ed`. V. It has long been established in the Courts that Pro Se litigants can not be held to the strict guidelines afforded to licensed, professional attomeys. The absence of any Case Law should not prevent this Court from weighing the issues presented before it fairly and judiciously. ' 1/ VI. " Applicant has overcome the presumption of regularity concerning his guilty plea. :YiBy the State’s own Proposed- Order,. signed and ORDERED by the trial Judge.» Applicant’s » Attomey Charles Guidry stated that Applicant’s plea was not voluntary and the applicant was not aware of the consequences of his plea. VII. Page 7, item number 39 of the State’s Proposed Findings of Facts and Conclusions of Law states that the applicant fails to show a plea agreement existed',_ including any form of Probation. If this were true then why was the issue addressed by a visiting Judge shown in the record in the Court’s Docket sheet. VIII. Applicant has limited access to the internal administrative workings of the Texas Department of Cr`im`inal ]ust`ice, or to the Harr`is County Sher`itt"’s O'tfice.

Applicant had already paid him $_26.., 700._00 in fees._ FQr Sc_haffer to cut Ar,).r,)lic_ant off as he did was unethicalr and did cause Applicant denial of access to the courts as Applicant relied heavily upon Schaf`fer’s representation In Ruiz v Estelle it was clearly defined how such actions by attorneys establishes a denial of access to the courts, indeed to his own paid attomey. This Court, on its own requests can obtain the procedure for “new intake” prisoners at the Holliday Unit of the TDCJ-lD which will show that new intake prisoners can not have access to the law library until they complete the intake process. The additional 26 days ""7‘: 1 should be considered in Applicant’ s claim of being denied of access to the Cou.r.ts for the purpose .of`developing and filing a Motion for §hock Probation. IX. ln the States’s Proposed Conclusions, page 9, item 4, it states that the Applicant fails to present any arguments or evidence that 'G"uid‘rys actions f€i’r' outside or"‘prevaiii'rrg professional norms, ln the context of his Original Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus »GW/¢" `“3;‘” 11' '1'1"1*\5’»'1"6“*‘1"1",`\'5"?""'}, under Affidavit stated he could not say for certain Applicant’s plea was voluntary and that he understood the consequences of his plea. lt is paramount for an attorney to ensure that a defendant pleas guilty knowingly, voluntarily, and that he knows the consequences oi`his actions before the Court. Because this was breached Applicant should be afforded relief. "R_espmrse cent WEHEREFORE, premises considered, Applicant prays that this Honorable Court take ]udicial Notice of the issues raised in his Original Application for Writ ofHabeas Corpus, his answers to the State’s Proposed Order and to this Response, GRANTING the rei3te1` to which Prpp`i*i'c‘"rt“rs erri*it‘i‘e'd '\' - SO MOVED A'ND PRAYED ON riner ZO HDAY or &i¢m,~gj ,2015.

You never deposited the full amount required for expenses You always have an excuse for why you cannot pay what you owe. It is clear from your letter of August l that your truck is more important to you than your freedom. If l had not fought for you at the bond revocation hearing, your bond would have been revoked, and you would have awaited the outcome of the appeal in prison You showed your lack of respect for me when you paid to fix your truck instead of paying me. You have a lot of nerve to ask me how to retrieve your property from the police. I will not communicate with you again until you have paid the $1,500 that is past due. l do not want to hear any more excuses Sincerely, Randy Schaffer 1301 McKinney, Suite 3100 Houston, TX 77010 713-951-9555 Affidavit My name is Stacy Satterfield and Charles Satterfield is my uncle. My uncle`was completely unaware his appeal was up when he was arrested on October 10, 2012. The following are the conversations l had with l\/|r. Shaffer or his staff after that. l called |Vlr. Shaffer's office to find out what options my uncle had now that he had been arrested, it took a few calls to finally have Mr. Shaffer speak to me. Upon returning my call Mr. Shaffer chastised me for calling after my uncle was arrested, He then told me when the balance of $1500 was paid he would state my uncle's options. l pointed out the amount was incorrect and it was only $1300 and that l had already mail a $500 check to him for my uncle. Mr. Shaffer was displeasesd that | disputed him on the amount and terminated the conversation. When Mr. Shaffer found he was in error and l was correct about the amount owed he had his secretary call to apologize for being so abrupt with me, he did not have the courtesy to apologize himself. After the balance of $800 was paid l call Mr. Shaffer and the only thing he had to say was to go any further and state my uncle's options there would be a $10,000 fee. l feel that Mr. Shaffer has acted very unprofessional from the beginning l was the person who first contacted him for my uncle. When l called him the first time to explain my uncle‘s situtation and find out his fees he told me they were $10`,00`0. lVly uncle went with $`10,000 cash to retain his services, at which time Mr. Shaffer said the fee was $Z0,000 plus $3,000 for expenses. l\/|y uncle did retain Mr. Shaffer and then once my uncle had paid him in excess of 526,000 with only " $1300"b'eing owed refused"to speak with`hih""i'ii`h"til"th`e`balé`iiée was paid because it was a little late. This was the time that my uncle's appeal ran out and he was taken to jail. < _/ © d m! `:) 1 t \ -l\£m: C\»:zt (c:#\olosw DlQ/>rsz ~Gmo (l)O\/\i; O?/rq'rvm// firm \ 1 3)%252 c@c\ss arc nw Pz'roomc *lo +€rz S*b¢~l~<») rp%iw_§@ F\lr\~l>ma§ O¢ Fec»fs P'N) /:oncl,crsiov\> 6'[: LPVJ w\`li,\ rPri_"i»rroC~Mrv\-i-s.
