Petition No. 13-7280 U.S. Supreme Court
Petition No. 12-7747 U.S. Supreme Court
Dear Ms. Ashton and Mr. Eliasson:
This complaint to OPR of misconduct involving Department attorney Roger B. Handberg AUSA
Orlando Florida, and perhaps others, relate to the exercise of their authority to investigate,
litigate or provide legal advice, as well as allegations of misconduct by law enforcement
personnel when related to allegations of attorney misconduct within the jurisdiction of OPR.
Petition No. 13-7280 shows U.S. Judge William Terrell Hodges engaged in conduct prejudicial
to the effective and expeditious administration of the business of the courts in the Middle District
of Florida while presiding over my cases in the Ocala Division. Also see Fair v Hodges, a
meritorious 1971 citizen challenge to the investiture of Judge Hodges.
http://www.scribd.com/doc/179253446/
This is also a complaint about fraud or impairment of a legitimate government activity, the above
captioned petitions to the U.S. Supreme Court. Petition No. 13-7280 seeks to stop wrongful
foreclosure of my home on a HECM reverse mortgage. In Petition No. 12-7747 I requested
appointment of a guardian ad litem but got no response. My phone call to the Supreme Court
February 6, 2014 revealed documents in my cases do not appear on the Courts computer system.
On Thursday February 6, 2014, I called the Supreme Court about a letter from the Clerk dated
February 4, 2014, stating, (copy enclosed)
Dear Mr. Gillespie,

The enclosed petition for rehearing shows on page 9 the Florida Commission on Ethics gave
notice

December 17, 2013 to the public officers and employees below for Misuse of Public
Position, 112.313(6) F.S. in the fraud or impairment of Petition No. 12-7747, a legitimate
government activity, 18 U.S.C. 371, a conspiracy against my rights, 18 U.S.C. 241, and a

The complaints, exhibits, and seven (7) Notices appear in separate appendices on the enclosed
CD-ROM. The Florida Commission on Ethics announced an alleged settlement of my home
mortgage dispute in seven orders entered January 29, 2014, paragraph 3:
The complaint apparently alleges that the Respondent misused her public position by
conspiring with others in her office to deprive the Complainant of his legal rights...
related to an attorney's representation which resulted in a settlement of the Complainant's
home mortgage dispute.
If this settlement is correct, I do not have knowledge of it. I asked the Court to inquire further.
Otherwise these seven orders appear part of a campaign of psychological abuse or torture. My
complaints were dismissed on a technicality, which I intend to correct soon in new complaints.
On Friday, January 24, 2014, the Commission on Ethics met in executive session and
considered this complaint for legal sufficiency pursuant to Commission Rule 34-5.002,
F.A.C. The Commission's review was limited to questions of jurisdiction of the
Commission and of the adequacy of the details of the complaint to allege a violation of
the Code of Ethics for Public Officers and Employees. No factual investigation preceded
the review, and therefore the Commission's conclusions do not reflect on the accuracy of
the allegations of the complaint.
Also, since filing the above complaints, I have received additional public records showing new
evidence of misuse of public office, and other serious criminal acts and obstruction of justice.
I am disabled with physical and mental impairments. My ability to function in real-time is
severely impaired. In the past Florida and federal courts, judges, judicial officers and court
employees have abused their power by using a position of dominance for advantage over me

by this abuse of power. My amended disability motion to the Eleventh Circuit is enclosed.
August 28, 2012 I requested appointment of a guardian ad litem from the U.S. Supreme Court.
This was prior to filing Petition No. 12-7747 December 10, 2012. Mr. Clayton R. Higgins, Jr.,
case analyst, returned my disability accommodation request by letter September 4, 2012,

On August 29, 2012 I filed a corrected Rule 13.5 Application to Justice Thomas. On
information and belief, a Rule 13.5 Application to extend time to file a petition for a writ
of certiorari automatically consolidates two or more judgments because:
...you may only submit a single petition for a writ of certiorari when two or more
judgments are sought to be reviewed to the same lower court. Rule 12.4. This also
applies to an application for an extension of time within which to file a petition
for a writ of certiorari.
Letter of Jeffrey Atkins to Neil Gillespie, July 25, 2012. (Note: copy enclosed)
2012
On September 13, 2013 Justice Thomas granted Application 12A215 extending the time
to file a writ of certiorari to and including December 10, 2012. It does not appear cases
C.A.11 No. 12-11028 and C.A.11 No. 12-11213 were consolidated. The decision by
Justice Thomas is not in the form of an order, but a letter from the Clerk that shows the
extension of time was granted, but not consolidation of C.A.11 No. 12-11028 and C.A.11
No. 12-11213. Only C.A.11 No. 12-11028 appears on the online Court docket.

Correspondence with Roger B. Handberg, III, Asst. U.S. Attorney, MD Florida, Orlando
Mr. Handberg is familiar with some of the issues underlying this matter that involve payday loan
litigation. In 2001 the Florida Attorney General intervened in Neil Gillespie v. ACE Cash
Express, Inc. citing Florida RICO jurisdiction. Roger B. Handberg, Senior Assistant Attorney
General, Economic Crimes Division, appeared for the AG and got a $500,000 settlement for
Florida. Mr. Handberg was present June 12, 2002 at a mediation in Tampa and knew I was not
satisfied with Barker, Rodems & Cook (BRC) who represented me. On or about May 22, 2002 I
called the opposing counsel for ACE, Paul Watson, and told him I wanted to settle. That was
after BRC defrauded me of $7,143 in the AMSCOT case November 1, 2001.
I wrote Mr. Handberg in 2007 about BRCs fraud no avail. Since 2007 I also made written
complaints to the Florida Attorney General about The Florida Bar and Barker, Rodems & Cook,
first to AG Bill McCollum, and later to AG Bondi. Enclosed you will find the $500,000
settlement agreement, and my correspondence with Mr. Handberg, and AG Bill McCollum.

15 ROBERT: Good morning, Office of the Clerk.
16 MR. GILLESPIE: Hi, I'm calling about my
17 petition for writ of certiorari.
18 ROBERT: Okay.
19 MR. GILLESPIE: It's number 127747.
20 ROBERT: 127747.
21 MR. GILLESPIE: My name is Neil Gillespie, I
22 am the petitioner.
23 ROBERT: Yes, sir.
24 MR. GILLESPIE: Two of the respondents have
25 not filed a waiver or a response that was due

1 Monday, January 14th.
2 ROBERT: They did file a waiver on
3 December 20th.
4 MR. GILLESPIE: They did?
5 ROBERT: We have in our system December 20th,
6 2012, Waiver of Right of Respondent, Ryan
7 Christopher Rodems --
8 MR. GILLESPIE: Okay, he is --
9 ROBERT: -- and Barker, Rodems and Cook, P.A.
10 MR. GILLESPIE: He is only one of many, many,
11 respondent, sir.
12 ROBERT: Uh-huh.
13 MR. GILLESPIE: He is not the other
14 respondent.
15 ROBERT: Okay.
16 MR. GILLESPIE: There's respondent State of
17 Florida has not responded. The respondent Robert
18 W. Bauer has not responded. They are not
19 represented by Mr. Rodems.
20 ROBERT: Okay.
21 MR. GILLESPIE: Okay
22 ROBERT: Let me transfer you to the case
23 analyst who would be handling this case.
24 MR. GILLESPIE: Well, let me just ask you, is
25 that Mr. Higgins?

1 ROBERT: Mr -- yes, sir.
2 MR. GILLESPIE: Okay. I've already called
3 that number and left a message.
4 ROBERT: Okay.
5 MR. GILLESPIE: I have another question. This
6 person Ryan Chris Rodems who filed the waiver, he
7 attached a harassing note to my copy when I
8 received it in the mail.
9 ROBERT: Uh-huh.
10 MR. GILLESPIE: I don't -- his misconduct is
11 at the center of this petition and the Florida Bar
12 has an open complaint against him for that
13 misconduct. So I don't even see how his appearance
14 is proper in this matter, since he's under
15 investigation by the Florida Bar.
16 ROBERT: And he is counsel for the defendants?
17 MR. GILLESPIE: Yes, for himself and his law
18 firm.
19 ROBERT: Okay.
20 MR. GILLESPIE: Not for any of the other --
21 ROBERT: If there is a complaint open -- if
22 there is a complaint open against him, I would
23 obviously save that letter and add it to your
24 complaint, but as far as you -- so you want him
25 removed as counsel for the respondents; is that

1 what you're saying?
2 MR. GILLESPIE: It seems that he engaged in
3 conduct unbecoming a member of the Bar of the
4 Supreme Court of the United States. I will also
5 say that, you know, this is his method of -- this
6 is his practice of litigation, litigation through
7 harassment. He is under a Court imposed
8 prohibition of conduct for this by Hillsborough
9 Judge Claudia Isom dating back to February the 5th.
10 He won't even address me by my surname, it's also
11 name calling.
12 ROBERT: Uh-huh.
13 MR. GILLESPIE: You know, which is the least
14 of it.
15 ROBERT: I'm not sure what you can -- I
16 believe that you can, you can report it to the
3
17 Supreme Court Bar as well and they can look into
18 it. But again, I can't answer these questions.
19 I'll transfer you. I don't believe Mr. Higgins is
20 here right now, but I can transfer you to his
21 supervisor, Mr. Atkins, who could answer these
22 questions a little bit more efficiently.
23 MR. GILLESPIE: All right. And what is the
24 Supreme Court Bar? I mean, I have looked online
25 for that and I can't seem to find it.
Transcript, date January 17, 2013, time 10:14 AM, page 6
1 ROBERT: What do you mean what is it? You
2 need to be admitted to the Supreme Court Bar --
3 MR. GILLESPIE: I understand that, but you had
4 mentioned that as though it were an entity. Is it
5 an entity or just an accounting formality?
6 ROBERT: I believe it's its own Bar
7 Association.
8 MR. GILLESPIE: And where
9 ROBERT: So should you wish to bring complaint
10 against Mr. Rodems I believe you can do that here
11 as well but, again, Mr. Atkins would be able to
12 answer that a little bit better.
13 MR. GILLESPIE: Thank you. And what was your
14 name, sir?
15 ROBERT: My name is Robert.
16 MR. GILLESPIE: Thank you, Robert.
17 ROBERT: Okay. But, like I said, I believe
18 it's its own entity, but Mr. Atkins is going to
19 know a little bit better than I.
20 MR. GILLESPIE: Thank you.
21 ROBERT: All right, sir, I'm going to transfer
22 you now.
23 MR. GILLESPIE: Thank you.
24 MR. ATKINS: Clerk's Office.
25 MR. GILLESPIE: Hi, is this Mr. Atkins?
Transcript, date January 17, 2013, time 10:14 AM, page 7
1 MR. ATKINS: Yes, it is.
2 MR. GILLESPIE: My name is Neil Gillespie.
3 I'm the petitioner in number 12-7747. I'm not
4 getting the responses that were due January 14th.
5 MR. ATKINS: Okay. What is your case number
6 again?
4
7 MR. GILLESPIE: 12-7747.
8 MR. ATKINS: Okay. Well, I don't see any --
9 except for a waiver that was filed by Rodems and
10 Barker, Rodems and Cook, I don't see anything else
11 filed. That's the only thing that has been filed
12 with us.
13 MR. GILLESPIE: Right. And you know, they
14 were due on the 14th.
15 MR. ATKINS: Right.
16 MR. GILLESPIE: Now, there is 10 respondents
17 who haven't responded.
18 MR. ATKINS: Okay. Well, what is going to
19 happen in this situation then, then it will go to
20 conference without the opposition briefs, the Court
21 will just look on the -- at the petition on its
22 own. And if they feel they need to see a response,
23 they will request a response to be filed. Okay.
24 MR. GILLESPIE: From whom?
25 MR. ATKINS: From the respondents.
Transcript, date January 17, 2013, time 10:14 AM, page 8
1 MR. GILLESPIE: Okay.
2 MR. ATKINS: If the Court -- yeah, in other
3 words, if that's all that's submitted is your
4 petition, then that is all that is going to be
5 considered by the Court, unless they direct
6 otherwise.
7 MR. GILLESPIE: And when would that happen?
8 MR. ATKINS: Let's see here, January 14th --
9 24th -- yeah, be sometime next month, probably
10 about the middle of the month.
11 MR. GILLESPIE: All right. So aren't the
12 respondents required to either respond or submit a
13 waiver?
14 MR. ATKINS: No, they're not. I mean, the
15 rules allow that one or the other has to be filed,
16 but that is up to them whether they file one to
17 them. And it will be up to the Court to decide to
18 go ahead and rule on the petition or not. So we
19 just have to wait to see how the Court rules on the
20 petition.
21 MR. GILLESPIE: All right. I have another
22 question. This respondent Ryan Christopher Rodems
23 who filed the waiver, he attached a harassing note
24 to the waiver copy that was provided me.
5
25 Mr. Rodems' misconduct is at the center of this
Transcript, date January 17, 2013, time 10:14 AM, page 9
1 petition and the Florida Bar has an open complaint
2 against him for this misconduct. So his appearance
3 here seems improper.
4 MR. ATKINS: It seems improper? What did you
5 say, I didn't hear you?
6 MR. GILLESPIE: Mr. Rodems' misconduct,
7 professional misconduct is at the center of this
8 petition. The Florida Bar has an open Bar
9 complaint against Mr. Rodems for the misconduct
10 complained about in the petition. So his
11 appearance for himself and his firm appears
12 improper, especially since he has engaged in
13 conduct unbecoming a member of the Bar of the
14 Supreme Court of the United States.
15 MR. ATKINS: Okay. Well, the Court will take
16 that in consideration. I mean, right now he
17 didn't -- like I said, all that was filed was the
18 waiver, there was no response to the petition. So
19 he simply just filed a waiver waiving his right to
20 respond. Okay. But anything as far as that is
21 concerned, that is, again, up to the Court's
22 discretion.
23 MR. GILLESPIE: Well, they're not aware of the
24 harassment, the harassing note that was attached to
25 the Supreme Court waiver.
Transcript, date January 17, 2013, time 10:14 AM, page 10
1 MR. ATKINS: Okay.
2 MR. GILLESPIE: The fellow that I spoke with
3 before you said it's possible to make a complaint
4 to the Bar of the Supreme Court. How is that done?
5 MR. ATKINS: Well, I don't know, who did you
6 speak to?
7 MR. GILLESPIE: Whoever -- the person that
8 answered the phone. I mean, it's really
9 irrelevant. Is it possible to make a complaint
10 against a member of the Bar of the Supreme Court?
11 And how is that --
12 MR. ATKINS: No, not a complaint filed here.
13 I think it goes against the State Bar that the
14 attorney is a member of, filed with the State Bar.
6
15 MR. GILLESPIE: Okay. Well, I have an open
16 complaint against him.
17 MR. ATKINS: Okay. So you did what you could
18 do then. So we will see how they rule on that.
19 MR. GILLESPIE: Well, I'm confused now,
20 because the fellow I just spoke with --
21 MR. ATKINS: Well, what's his name, that's why
22 I'm asking? You said it's not relevant; it's
23 relevant to me because I -- it would be nice to
24 know who you spoke to. I can ask him about that.
25 MR. GILLESPIE: I can't remember right now, it

1 would take me a couple of minutes. I'm severely
2 disabled, unfortunately, and it affects my memory
3 short term. I would have to think about it for a
4 minute, but I can get back to you.
5 MR. ATKINS: Well, let me --
6 MR. GILLESPIE: I'll get back to you with the
7 name.
8 MR. ATKINS: All right. Have a good day, sir.

To the attorney partners at Andrews Crabtree Knox & Andrews, LLP:
Attached you will find a document entered by the Clerk of the U.S. 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, Case:
12-11213 Date Filed: 08/27/2012 Page: 1 of 2, showing returned mail for Catherine Barbara Chapman at
Andrews, Crabtree, Knox & Andrews, LLP.
I do not understand why the Clerk attached an unrelated letter to me dated August 15, 2012. I learned of
this matter today by reading the docket on PACER. The Clerk did not provide this information to me by
mail.
The docket entry reads: "Returned Mail was received for Attorney Catherine Barbara Chapman for - The
Law Office of Robert W. Bauer, P.A.. Address has NOT been verified and updated, and mail has NOT
been issued again. 8/15;pro-3 (ENVELOPE STATES "NOT AT THIS ADDRESS")"
Today I called your office and was informed that Ms. Chapman has not been employed by your firm for
four years.
Ms. Chapman and Guilday, Tucker have represented Defendants/Appellees Robert W. Bauer and the
Law Office of Robert W. Bauer, P.A. since April 2011, first in the U.S. District Court, and later in the
U.S. Court of Appeals. During all that time there was no problem with Ms. Chapmans address at
Guilday, Tucker.
I would appreciate any information you can provide as to why Ms. Chapman is listed in the U.S. 11th
Circuit Court of Appeals as a member of your firm, and if this listing needs correction. I have not yet
discussed this issue with Ms. Chapman.
This and a related case are being appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. I am the pro se, non lawyer
petitioner. Below is a link to the U.S. Supreme Court, Justice Thomas granted my Rule 13.5 Application
to extend time to file a petition for writ of certiorari on September 13, 2012.

Monday, September 9, 2013 7:21pm
There is no graver responsibility and act of
state government than an execution.
In Florida this week, a campaign fundraiser
takes precedence.
Attorney General Pam Bondi persuaded Gov.
Rick Scott to postpone an execution scheduled
for tonight because it conflicted with her
re-election kick-off reception.
"What's going on down there? It's ridiculous,"
said Phyllis Novick, the Ohio mother of one of
Marshall Lee Gore's victims, when told Monday
about the reason for the delay.
Gore, 50, raped, strangled and stabbed
30-year-old Robyn Novick in 1988 before
dumping her body into a Miami-Dade County
trash heap. Gore was also sentenced to die for
the slaying of 19-year-old Susan Roark, whose
body was found a few months later in Columbia
County.
Gore was initially scheduled for execution in
June, but the date was twice delayed because of legal skirmishes over Gore's sanity.
After Scott last month rescheduled the execution for Sept. 10, the date of Bondi's "hometown campaign kickoff" at
her South Tampa home, Bondi's office asked that it be postponed. The new date is Oct. 1.
Scott said Monday that he did not know the reason for the request, and he declined to answer when asked whether he
considers a campaign fundraiser an appropriate reason to reschedule an execution.
"When another Cabinet officer asks for something, we try to work with them," Scott said.
On Monday, Bondi responded to questions with a statement saying she had made a mistake.
"As a prosecutor, there was nothing more important than seeing justice done, especially when it came to the
unconscionable act of murder. I personally put two people on death row and, as Attorney General, have already
participated in eight executions since I took office, a role I take very seriously," Bondi said.
"The planned execution of Marshall Lee Gore had already been stayed twice by the courts, and we absolutely should
Adam C. Smith, Times Political Editor
http://www.tampabay.com/news/politics/national/execution-rescheduled-to-accommodate-pam-bondi-fundraiser/2140891
not have requested that the date of the execution be moved," said Bondi, who has long championed victims' rights.
Shortly before a scheduled execution, the Florida attorney general typically phones the governor to inform him there
is no legal basis for delay. Since Bondi and Scott began their first terms in 2011, eight executions have been carried
out.
Gore's attorney, Ted Scher, said he had asked the governor's office for more information about why the execution
was postponed, but the governor's staff would say only that it was at the request of the attorney general. That it
turned out to be because of a campaign event came as a surprise.
"It's very unusual," Scher said. "It's particularly unusual given the attorney general's position in these cases that all
we (defense lawyers) do is delay these executions," Scher said.
Bondi is fighting legal challenges to the 2013 "Timely Justice Act" aimed at speeding up executions in Florida.
"Wherever one stands on the death penalty, there isn't anyone in America that believes an execution should be
postponed for political fundraising," said David Donnelly, executive director of Public Campaign Action Fund. "That
Pam Bondi requested a delay in this execution shows how the nonstop chase for campaign cash has hollowed out the
morality of our political system. Her moral compass is broken."
The delay keeps Gore on death row an extra 21 days at a cost that the Department of Corrections estimates at about
$1,000.
The Republican attorney general faces no serious challenger so far, and organizers expect her campaign kick-off
event to attract 100 to 200 people. Among those hosting the event: Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn, a Democrat; House
Speaker Will Weatherford, R-Wesley Chapel; and state Sens. Jack Latvala, R-Clearwater, Bill Galvano, R-
Bradenton, Tom Lee, R-Brandon, Wilton Simpson, R- Trilby, and Jeff Brandes, R-St. Petersburg.
The governor won't be there because he made other plans once the execution dropped off his Tuesday schedule.
He will be at a reception in Broward County raising money for his re-election campaign.

Service of Florida contributed to this report. Contact Adam C. Smith at asmith@tampabay.com.

Dear Ms. Doss:
Please find enclosed two (2) sworn complaints for Misuse of Public Position, 112.313(6) F.S.
for the Honorable Pat Frank, Clerk of the Circuit Court, Hillsborough County, an elected public
officer, and the Clerks counsel Dale Kent Bohner, a local government attorney, in my civil
lawsuit in Hillsborough County, Neil J. Gillespie v. Barker, Rodems & Cook, PA, and William J.
Cook, Case No. 05-CA-7205. August 11, 2005 - June 21, 2011.
Clerk Frank and Mr. Bohner have refused to docket my pro se filings in the case since at least
July 11, 2011 as shown below. Clerk Frank and Mr. Bohner claim reliance on an order entered
by Judge Martha Cook November 15, 2010 (enclosed) as the basis of their refusal to docket my
pleadings. This claim is belied by the following:
1. A judge cannot order the clerk of court to do anything absent a legislative mandate. In
civil court, court orders routinely contain language that the clerk is ordered to do so and so
forthwith. Unless the clerk is made a party to the lawsuit, these orders are meaningless. The
Clerk is not a party to case no. 05-CA-7205, thus the order is meaningless.
2. Clerk Frank and Mr. Bohner docketed my pro se filings for almost eight months (8) after
the order was entered November 15, 2010, because the order was meaningless.
3. Opposing counsel Ryan Christopher Rodems wrote Clerk Frank May 31, 2011, in part,
Dear Ms. Frank:
I am counsel for William J. Cook and Barker, Rodems & Cook, P.A. in case
number 05-CA-7205.
On November 15, 2010, Judge Cook entered and Order barring the Plaintiff, Neil
J. Gillespie, from appearing pro se, and also directing the Clerks office not to
accept any more filing from Mr. Gillespie. Since that time, the Clerks office has
accepted a number of flings from Mr. Gillespie.
A copy of Judge Cooks Order is enclosed.
Would you please explain why your office has not complied with Judge Cooks
Order?
Respectfully submitted,
Ryan Christopher Rodems

Mr. Rodems letter to the Clerk is enclosed.
4. Clerk Frank and Mr. Bohner corruptly conspired to use her and his official position,
property, and resources within her and his trust to secure a special privilege, benefit, or
exemption for Mr. Rodems and Rodems various constituencies, including those who received a
gift of legal services and settlement benefit to state of Florida judges, public officers, public

5. Please find enclosed my 64 page affidavit, June 14, 2013,
AFFIDAVIT OF NEIL J. GILLESPIE ON JUDGE MARTHA J. COOKS
Order Prohibiting Plaintiff from Appearing Pro Se [A Sham Order]
that begins as follows,
1. My name is Neil J. Gillespie. I am over 18 years old. I was the Plaintiff and Counter-
Defendant in the above-captioned case in Hillsborough County, Thirteenth Judicial
Circuit. (hereinafter this case). This affidavit is given on personal knowledge unless
otherwise stated.
2. I made this affidavit to impeach the Order Prohibiting Plaintiff from Appearing Pro
Se (the Order), a sham Order entered November 15, 2010 by Judge Martha J. Cook in
this case. (Exhibit 1). The Order is a sham and did not address a bona fide issue. Judge
Cook corruptly entered the Order during a conflict of interest, while she was a Defendant
in my federal disability and civil rights lawsuit. Judge Cook entered the Order with a
corrupt motive, to stop legitimate inquiry showing her personal and business financial
affairs violated the Florida Code of Judicial Conduct. Judge Cook recused herself in this
case November 18, 2010, three days after entering the Order. Judge Cooks recusal
shows my motion to disqualify her was legally justified.
Virlindia A. Doss, Executive Director January 24, 2014

3. On May 1, 2013 Ryan Christopher Rodems submitted the sham Order, under penalty
of perjury, in his vexatious Unlicensed Practice of Law (UPL) complaint against me to
The Florida Bar, case 20133090(5) for representing myself and my related interest pro se
in other cases.
6. In June 2011 appointment of counsel was, on information and belief, required under 18
U.S.C. 3006A, and the Sixth Amendment, after Mr. Rodems corruptly obtained a
warrant for my arrest through honest services fraud with Judge Cook, who accepted
things of value (campaign donations) in return for official acts [18 U.S.C. 201(b)(2)],
improper rulings on summary judgment, and civil contempt with arrest on writ of bodily
attachment, and who used the mail to carry out a scheme or artifice to defraud me [18
U.S.C. 1341] of the intangible right of honest services. [18 U.S.C. 1346]. See U.S.
v. Terry, No. 11-4130, C.A.6.

This office is returning the following pleadings pursuant to the attached court order

This was part of my effort to get back approximately $600 that Mr. Rodems wrongly garnished
from my bank account in 2008. I eventually got the money back directly from the Park Avenue

D. APPELLANTS MOTION TO AMEND NOTICE OF APPEAL
Case No.: 2D10-5197
Lower Court Case No. 05-CA-007205
July 18, 2011
The 20 page motion is enclosed. I believe 10 is relevant here, and the cited case law,
10. For almost eight (8) months the Clerk of the Circuit Court did not comply with Judge
Cooks Order Prohibiting Plaintiff From Appearing Pro Se and accepted Gillespies
filings. (Exhibit 3). However in a letter dated July 11, 2011 (received by Gillespie July
14, 2011) the Clerk returned Gillespies filings submitted July 6, 2011 and filed July 7,
2011. (Exhibit 5). The Clerk even struck her own filed stamp. The Clerk returned
Gillespies Motion to Strike or Set Aside Joint Stipulation For Dismissal With Prejudice,
and Motion to Strike or Set Aside Settlement Agreement. (Exhibit 5). A pleading in a
cause after filing becomes a part of the record and should not be altered, amended, or
destroyed without permission of the court, on due notice to the opposite party, and should
be kept by the clerk in files of his office. Gracy v. Fielding, 83 Fla. 388, 91 So. 373.
Appellant did not receive notice that his pleading would be struck by the Clerk after the
Clerk filed the pleading July 7, 2011. The Clerk has a legal duty to maintain and to
provide access to the records contained in its files unless the records are legally exempt
from disclosure. Radford v. Brock, App. 2 Dist., 914 So.2d 1066 (2005). The Clerk has
failed her duty to maintain the file in this case.
7. The following from my affidavit to impeach Judge Cooks sham order is relevant,
53. I am a consumer of legal and court services affecting interstate commerce in this case.
Virlindia A. Doss, Executive Director January 24, 2014
Florida Commission on Ethics Page - 5
54. I commenced this lawsuit August 11, 2005 by filing the Complaint and paying a
$255 filing fee, in cash, to the Clerk of the Court. I paid an additional $40 cash August
11, 2005 to the Hillsborough County Sheriff to serve the Complaint on the Defendants.
55. The Circuit Court of the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit, in and for Hillsborough County,
Florida, is a court created by statute to administer, apply, and interpret the laws of the
state of Florida in a fair and unbiased manner without favoritism, extortion, improper
influence, personal self-enrichment, self-dealing, concealment, and conflict of interest.
56. Martha Jean Cook is an elected judge for the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit, and was by
virtue of that position of trust an officer and employee of state government, responsible
for lawfully performing and discharging her duties without bias, favoritism, extortion,
improper influence, personal self enrichment, self-dealing, concealment, and conflict of
interest.
56. As shown in this affidavit, Judge Cook did not lawfully perform and discharge her
duties, but served as Mr. Rodems marionette as that term is used in U.S. v. Terry, No.
11-4130, U.S. Sixth Circuit, which affirmed a jury conviction against former Judge
Steven J. Terry of several honest services fraud violations, citing federal anti-corruption
statutes, one of which prohibits an official from accepting things of value in return for
official acts. 18 U.S.C. 201(b)(2).
8. In a letter to Mr. Bohner August 30, 2013 I notified the Clerk of errors and omissions
with the docket in 05-CA-7205, copy enclosed without attachments. I specifically pointed out
that Judge Cooks order entered November 15, 2010 was a sham, and should not be relied upon.
I also requested pursuant to Rule 2.430(g), Fla.R.Jud.Adnlin., the file in Neil J. Gillespie vs.
Barker, Rodems & Cook, PA et al case no. 05-CA-007205 be surrendered to me prior to it being
destroyed in accordance with regular destruction schedules.
9. Mr. Bohner replied by letter dated September 12, 2013, copy enclosed. Relevant to this
complaint, he wrote,
5. You are entitled to apply to the Court for an order requiring the Clerk to deliver to you
the court records that are to be destroyed or disposed of under Rule 2.430(g). The Clerk
will obey the directions in such an order.
6. I have reviewed your position. If the referenced order is superseded by another order,
the Clerk will follow the directions contained in such an order.
I take this to mean Clerk Frank and Mr. Bohner corruptly conspired to use their official position,

order, the Clerk will follow the directions contained in such an order.
and this docket entry in not correct or valid,

BOHNER, LEGAL ADVISOR TO CLERK (PER COURT ORDER DATED
11/15/10
Take notice that the order by Martha Cook, Order Prohibiting Plaintiff from Appearing
Pro Se, is not a legitimate order, but a sham order corruptly entered.
Nonetheless, the fact that the legislature cannot set a judge's vacation days brings up a
parallel and little known corollary: A judge cannot order the clerk of court to do anything
absent a legislative mandate. In civil court, court orders routinely contain language that
the clerk is ordered to do so and so forthwith. Unless the clerk is made a party to the
lawsuit, these orders are meaningless.
The Clerk is not a party to case no. 05-CA-7205, thus the order is meaningless. So you
may immediately remove from the docket Do Not Enter Additional Documents.
Previously pursuant to Rule 2.430(g), Fla.R.Jud.Admin., I requested the file in Neil J.
Gillespie vs. Barker, Rodems & Cook, PA et al case no. 05-CA-007205 be surrendered to
me prior to it being destroyed in accordance with regular destruction schedules. I now
believe that procedure is not correct. Pursuant to Rule 2.430(g) I may apply for an order:
Rule 2.430(g) Disposition Other Than Destruction. Before destruction or
disposition of court records under this rule, any person may apply to the court for
an order requiring the clerk to deliver to the applicant the court records that are to
be destroyed or disposed of. All parties shall be given notice of the application.
The court shall dispose of that court record as appropriate.
I am a consumer of legal and court services affecting interstate commerce in this case.
I commenced this lawsuit August 11, 2005 by filing the Complaint and paying a $255
filing fee, in cash, to the Clerk of the Court. I paid an additional $40 cash August 11,
2005 to the Hillsborough County Sheriff to serve the Complaint on the Defendants.
The Circuit Court of the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit, in and for Hillsborough County,
Florida, is a court created by statute to administer, apply, and interpret the laws of the
state of Florida in a fair and unbiased manner without favoritism, extortion, improper
influence, personal self-enrichment, self-dealing, concealment, and conflict of interest.
Pat Frank was elected Clerk of the Court and is by virtue of that public position of trust
an officer of state government responsible for lawfully performing and discharging her
duties without bias, favoritism, extortion, improper influence, personal self enrichment,
self-dealing, concealment, and conflict of interest.

have read the position you take in your letter. If you apply to the Court for an
order under Rule 2.430(g) requiring the Clerk to deliver the court records that are

ADVISOR TO CLERK (PER COURT ORDER DATED 11/15/10)
Docket page 22 printed today January 24, 2014 shows the above entries, and is enclosed.
Conclusion
Clerk Frank and Mr. Bohner corruptly conspired to use her and his official position, property,
and resources within her and his trust to secure a special privilege, benefit, or exemption for Mr.
Rodems and Rodems various constituencies, including those who received a gift of legal
services and settlement benefit to state of Florida judges, public officers, public employees, and
my former counsel Robert W. Bauer and his law firm, in my federal disability and civil rights
lawsuit against the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit Florida, case no. 5:10-cv-00503, while corruptly
denying me a due process right of filing pleadings under color of law.

Dear Ms. Doss:
What is the status of complaints No. 13-201 through No. 13-207?
When can I expect the courtesy of a response to issues presented last week, including but not
limited to the following?
Response to email January 09, 2014 2:03 PM and substantive matters
New matter, failure of SA Cervone to properly investigate ch. 825 allegations
New matter, public records not provided by AG Bondi for Mr. Castagliuolo
New matter, Mr. Rodems gift of legal services and settlement benefit to state
of Florida judges, public officers and employees
New matter, JQC right to sue letters for Judge Claudia Isom prohibited.
You have my complaint for Clerk of Court Pat Frank and counsel Dale Bohner. In addition, I
inadvertently failed to provide the following information, which was part of my rebuttal October
16, 2012 to The Florida Bar in Ryan Christopher Rodems; TFB File No. 2013-10,271 (13E):
In addition, successor Judge James Arnold did not obey Cooks order. Judge Arnold did
not follow the order from the day he assumed the case, November 15, 2010, through June
21, 2011. This made Mr. Rodems very angry, and he filed a motion April 26, 2011,
Defendants' Motion to Strike Pro Se Filings by Plaintiff. Rodems sent a cover letter to
Judge Arnold that appears to this rebuttal at Exhibit 19. Mr. Rodems wrote this to Judge
Arnold:
Dear Judge Arnold:
Enclosed please find a courtesy copy of Defendants' Motion to Strike Pro Se Filings
by Plaintiff which was filed on even date in the above-referenced matter. By Order of
this Court entered November 15, 2010, Mr. Gillespie is prohibited from filing any
documents pro se.
Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
Respectfully submitted,
Ryan Christopher Rodems
Virlindia A Doss, Executive Director January 30, 2014

Attached you will find Exhibit 19, Mr. Rodems letter. Shall I provide this information and letter
as an amendment? Shall I include Mr. Rodems Defendants' Motion to Strike Pro Se Filings by
Plaintiff that was not granted or otherwise considered by Judge Arnold? Please advise.
Thank you in advance for the courtesy of a response. Time is of the essence.

RE: My letter January 10, 2014
Dear Ladies and Gentleman:
Unfortunately I do not show a response to my request for investigation and prosecution of fraud
or impairment of Petition No. 12-7747. Your failure to respond is a violation of the public trust,
reflects discredit upon the Justice system, and suggests a breakdown in the rule of law.
I amend my request for investigation/prosecution to include Honest Services Fraud of Martha
marionette Judge Cook set forth in pages 35-37 Petition No. 13-7280, copy attached. The
supporting documents are found on the CD-ROM provided to each of you, see the folder 2013,
04-10-2013, Rule 21 Motion correct (out-of-time) and the following files therein:

Petition No. 13-7280 also shows U.S. Judge William Terrell Hodges has engaged in conduct
prejudicial to the effective and expeditious administration of the business of the courts during his
tenure in the Middle District of Florida while presiding over my cases in the Ocala Division.

U.S. v. Terry, No. 11-4130, C.A. 6 - Judge Martha Jean Cook and Ryan Christopher Rodems
A decision February 14, 2013 in U.S. v. Terry, No. 11-4130, U.S. Sixth Circuit is of a
substantial or controlling effect, which I submitted April 10, 2013 in Petition No. 12-7747 but
was returned out-of-time by the Clerk April 15, 2013, the same day the case closed.
U.S. v. Terry affirmed a jury conviction against former Judge Steven J. Terry of several
honest services fraud violations, citing federal anti-corruption statutes, one of which prohibits an
official from accepting things of value in return for official acts. 18 U.S.C. 201(b)(2).
In U.S. v. Terry, the government proved to a jury that Terry accepted from political
benefactor Frank Russo campaign donations, a thing of value, in return for official acts, improper
rulings on summary judgment. An FBI wiretap provided evidence of the crime. The government
proved that the defendant used the mail to carry out a scheme or artifice to defraud another,
18 U.S.C. 1341, of the intangible right of honest services. 18 U.S.C. 1346.
In my case, Respondent Judge Martha J. Cook accepted campaign donations from
Respondent Ryan C. Rodems, and two of my former lawyers, his partners William J. Cook and
Jonathan Alpert, in return for improper rulings on summary judgment, and civil contempt, during
ex parte hearings September 28, 2010 in Gillespie v. Barker, Rodems & Cook, 05-CA-7205.
Hillsborough Deputy Christopher E. Brown, and Major James Livingston, provided evidence the
Respondents falsified the record of the hearing. The Respondents used the mail to carry out their
scheme or artifice to defraud me of the intangible right of honest services. 18 U.S.C. 1346.
I only attended one of three hearings before Judge Cook September 28, 2010. The first
was my spoken motion to disqualify Judge Cook on the basis that she was a Defendant in
Gillespie v. The Thirteenth Judicial Circuit, Florida, et al, 5:10-cv-503, a 1983 civil rights and
ADA disability lawsuit. Judge Cook did not recuse, accused me in open court of feigning
36
disability, and ordered Deputy Brown to remove me. Caperton v. A.T. Massey Coal Co., Inc.
required recusal because the probability of actual bias on the part of the judge or decisionmaker
is too high to be constitutionally tolerable. The Affidavit of Neil J. Gillespie shows the above,
and appears in a separate appendix. (See trial record Doc. 58-2, Exh 14, response to show cause).
Judge Cook falsified the record that I elected to leave the hearing, in violation of F.S.
839.13(1) and 837.06. The transcript and errata sheet appear in a separate volume appendix.
Judge Cook proceeded ex parte with the summary judgment hearing, and Mr. Rodems
complied with her instruction to create a false record, which false testimony went unchallenged
because no one represented me. Judge Cook then granted summary judgment for Mr. Rodems,
and immediately signed, without reading, a six page order at Mr. Rodems request, one he
prepared in advance. [Appendix 1]. Judge Cook mailed me a conformed copy order in a postage
prepaid envelope bearing her name & address, and mine. [Appendix 2]. See footnote
1
.
Next, Judge Cook proceeded ex parte with the civil contempt hearing, again falsified the
record that I elected to leave in violation of F.S. 839.13(1), and found me guilty. Because this
was civil contempt, and not criminal contempt, appointment of counsel was not required under
Gideon v. Wainwright. (The defender was appointed May 27, 2011, but relieved by the court).
Two days later September 30, 2010 Judge Cook signed an improper order holding me in
civil contempt [Appendix 4], filed October 1, 2010. This is the same proposed order that Mr.
Rodems provided by mail
2
, and instructed Judge Cook to sign, together with postage paid
envelopes. [Appendix 5]. Judge Cook obeyed Mr. Rodems and signed the order. The Order

1
The record shows I established a cause of action for fraud and breach of contract by order
January 13, 2006 [Appendix 3], making any subsequent summary judgment improper. May 5,
2010 I filed Plaintiffs First Amended Complaint, w/motion, on permission of Judge Barton, but
Judge Cook refused to consider the motion and denied ex parte leave to amend even one time.
2
Also enclosed was Mr. Rodems notice of voluntary dismissal of a vexatious counterclaim.
37
Adjudging Plaintiff Neil J. Gillespie In Contempt states at footnote 1:
Prior to this motion being heard, the Court heard Defendants' motion for summary judgment.
During that hearing, Plaintiff Neil J. Gillespie voluntarily left the hearing and did not return.
Fortunately Deputy Brown told his Commander, Major James Livingstion that I did not leave the
hearing voluntarily, and that I was ordered removed by Judge Cook. Major Livingstion
in turn provided me a letter dated January 12, 2011 describing what happened. Appendix B.
Judicial elections in Florida are different than those of other elected officials, and as
described in Terry. Judicial elections are nonpartisan. Only qualified lawyers can run for judicial
office, putting judicial races in a unique category. Within the pool of lawyers qualified to seek
judicial office, there is pressure not to oppose a sitting judge. Lucy Morgan of the Tampa Bay
Times wrote May 2, 2008, Unopposed judges quietly keep their seats: [Appendix 8].
...Few incumbents have lost since Florida began electing judges in nonpartisan races in
the 1970s, but the early qualifying date lets even more avoid opposition, according to a
review of election results over the past 12 years. Judges frequently escape opposition
because only lawyers can run for the jobs, and few lawyers are willing to risk angering a
judge before whom they must appear. In recent years few incumbent circuit judges have
faced opposition, and only five have been defeated...
...For the qualifying that closed Friday, there were 283 circuit judge positions statewide.
Twenty-three of those are open seats and will be contested. Of the 260 remaining seats,
only eight will be contested. The other 252 won unopposed...Supreme Court and District
Court justices run under a merit retention system. No judge has been denied another term
since the merit retention system was adopted in the 1970s...
As in Terry, Judge Cooks collaboration came relatively cheap, $300 in her initial 2002 bid. See
Appendix 9 for the donation records of Messrs. Rodems, Cook, and Alpert - $100 each. An
honest services fraud agreement need not spell out which payments control which act, just that
Judge Cook was expected to act favorably to the donor as opportunities arose. Terry at p. 6.
Unfortunately, Judge Cook failed to discharge her judicial duties without fraud, concealment,
bias, favoritism or conflict of interest, but acted like Mr. Rodems marionette. Terry at p. 11.

Chairman, Florida Federal Judicial Nominating Commission VIA Email Only
707 North Franklin Street, Suite 700
Tampa, Florida 33602
Dear Mr. Fitzgibbons:
I am writing you about the three finalists for the position of U.S. Attorney, Middle District of
Florida, and forwarding my January 10, 2014 correspondence with Senator Nelson, Senator
Rubio, Acting U.S. Attorney Bentley, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Handberg, as it relates to two
petitions to the U.S. Supreme Court, No. 13-7280 and No. 12-7747.
Mr. Handberg is familiar with some of the issues underlying this matter that involve payday loan
litigation. In 2001 the Florida Attorney General intervened in Neil Gillespie v. ACE Cash
Express, Inc. citing Florida RICO jurisdiction. Roger B. Handberg, Senior Assistant Attorney
General, Economic Crimes Division, appeared for the AG and got a $500,000 settlement for
Florida. Mr. Handberg was present June 12, 2002 at a mediation in Tampa and knew I was not
satisfied with Barker, Rodems & Cook (BRC) who represented me. On or about May 22, 2002 I
called the opposing counsel for ACE, Paul Watson, and told him I wanted to settle. That was
after BRC defrauded me of $7,143 in the AMSCOT case November 1, 2001.
I wrote Mr. Handberg in 2007 about BRCs fraud no avail. Since 2007 I also made written
complaints to the Florida Attorney General about The Florida Bar and Barker, Rodems & Cook,
first to AG Bill McCollum, and later to AG Bondi. Enclosed you will find the $500,000
settlement agreement, and my correspondence with Mr. Handberg, and AG Bill McCollum.
My correspondence with Mr. Handberg shows how he might respond to a request by a citizen for
the protection and assistance of the United States Attorney. I called Mr. Handberg January 28,
2014 and left a message. He did not return my call or otherwise respond.
Regarding Mr. Bentley, he apparently is not a member of The Florida Bar. In my view this
shows Mr. Bentleys independence, and independence is what we should expect of a United
States Attorney. In my view the integrated Florida Bar is a mistake and bad public policy. No
federal judge or U.S Attorney should be a member of The Florida Bar.
Unfortunately I have do not have a response from Mr. Bentley to my letter of January 10, 2014,
or to a telephone call placed to his office January 28, 2014 when I briefly spoke with Joanne.
Regarding Mr. Pajcic, I do not know him, and cannot make an informed comment. Thank you.
Sincerely,
