Mayfield v. JOHN BARNWELL, HOLLY HUFFMAN, THE EAGLE PAPER, ET AL–Update
I have not read the opinion of the 14th Court of Appeals in this case other than to learn that the case was affirmed.
In the trial court below, the judge granted the defendant’s motion for summary judgment when the defendant presented a signed green card with my name forged on it . I was in Michigan on the 29th of August and could not have signed the green card. What made this so obvious was that the same person who forged my name on this green card also forged my name on the green card for Richard Kennedy in the North Village Green Homeowner’s Association lawsuit. Additionally, my home was burglarized and all of my legal files were stolen including my excerpt from my book which was included as an exhibit of the defendant Eagle Paper. When I pointed this out, the court records were altered and my exhibits were removed and the excerpt was attempted to be switched to me. The problem was that the excerpt had been edited from when I wrote it. It had been tampered with by someone. Also, this was my only copy of the portion of the book as my computer had been hacked and I no longer had the original. The defendant also presented perjured affidavits by Holly Huffman and others alleging that they had obtained the probable cause document from the clerk of the court. There was no such copy in the court record and the document had Brazos County Prosecutor on the bottom of the document. Additionally, the probable cause document indicated that Lt. Arnold had committed perjury in order to obtain an arrest or warrant of some kind. The Eagle Newspaper also published numerous knowingly false articles in which they alleged that I had admitted cashing checks for a percentage since 2001. In other articles they stated that I had admitted participating in five or six scams. There were reports from the FBI and Secret Service of money laundering. All of these articles were knowingly false. The articles were on the internet in 2011 when I filed the lawsuit. The articles were also on several websites of others on the internet of the homeowner’s association advocacy groups and others. The articles were false and defamatory per se. The judge signed a default judgment in both cases with the forged green cards. The Court in this case ruled that the totally false and defamatory articles by the Eagle and their writers was substantially true without any proof of truth by the defendants. There was not one iota of truth to the false articles. I did not even own a computer until late 2001 and I did not know what cashing a check for a percentage was until a few months ago. I would never have participated in this type of criminal activity which would have subjected me to criminal exposure and possible jail. I would not risk two licenses for a few dollars. I had several judgments to collect and two multi-million dollar judgments to collect. It would be totally crazy to do something like this and risk losing that money and a job with the federal government that I had just been accepted for at the time. I certainly plan to appeal. The defendants presented some of my handwritten notes stolen from my home in their exhibits. Only the burglar could have copies of my research noted stolen from my home.
No one has a constitutional right to defame another in their profession. I plan to continue to work even if I only volunteer and this is not possible with these false reports on the internet. Additionally, the records appeared and disappeared several times from the clerk’s office. The clerk records were altered again as they were sent to the 14th Court of Appeals after the court ruled. This means they were altered. In state court, it is impossible to obtain a court record that has not been altered with exhibits and motions deleted and lost from court records. Appellate judges have no integrity. They alleged that I had not cited authorities for my arguments which were present on my documents unless the documents had been altered after I filed them again. The Texas Court system is totally and hopelessly corrupt. The voters need to throw the crooked rascals out and start over with new judges.
