This letter Sent: Sunday, July 19, 2015 6:36 AM, To: Michael Grady;,original attorney of record for DeKalb County Public Defenders and now a Cook County Public Defender: fairly explains the in-justice of the procedural system even without the abnormalities of the;......THREE TRIPS ?.....the ISSUE BOND FORFEITURE..... and the ISSUE
of HEALTH and DISABILITY: which remains an issue today.


Letter to former Dekalb County Public Defended; Michael Grady
From: Jerome C. White ( a Dekalb case )

I am hoping for a review of this request for relief assistance in the form of a sentencing hearing or
an appeal from a $500 fine and 300 hours community service for driving on a 1989 revolted Illinois
drivers license in the state of Illinois; although I have had a Minnesota drivers license since 1995.

While skipping some abnormalities; this request is based on the fact that after three trips to Dekalb, Il., (a total of three thousand miles), on my first actual appearance: I was told by the public defender, Tiffany Lynch that the court prosecutor said it was too late to introduce any evidence.

I should also state that returning home I was placed on bed-rest the following eight weeks; having been
ill during the entire trip. The court date was actually postponed one week because of this.

I am 67 years old semi-retired and under medical care for Gout, Sciatica, COPD and Depression:
among other things. I have a Loan officer and Paralegal background form a St Cloud University program and am desperately trying to find a logical way to comply with this order for 300 hours of community service..and complete my physical and ( Mn Dept. of Vocational Rehabilitation).

Although I have / had a Minnesota drivers license I was arrested for driving in Illinois on a
1984 Illinois revocation that should have been addressed when I received a Minnesota license
and when I completed the Drivers Diversion program 11-09-2009.

I have some mobility limitations and usually work from home as a certified acquisitions officer with
Freedom Lending and deal facilitator with a real estate partner network; while studying to re-instate
my mortgage license. I previously used my vehicle for my business and medical appointments.

No Minnesota organization will help with Ill. I am reaching out to you because 3 days before court I
called your office and got her: she said she intended to call after she got caught up but did nothing to present my evidence or argument to the court. Although I had introduced SOME information to you ( verbally or fax),
before my appearance, no-one acknowledged anything prior.

Please reply, please advise.
