David A. Rowland, General Counsel
Thirteenth J udicial Circuit Of Florida
Legal Department
800 E. Twiggs Street, Suite 603
Tampa, Florida 33602
Dear Mr. Rowland:
Enclosed is a copy of an Invoice: J udicial Records Request I received from Sandra Burge. The
invoice contains false and/or misleading information:
Your request for records, copies ... submitted on May 16, 2013 via e-mail and May 20,
2013 via UPS Ground is being handled as a request for judicial records under Florida
Rule of J udicial Administration, 2.42(i).... Upon receipt of payment the copies will be
released to the address shown above via U.S. mail.
Rule 2.42(i) does not exist, there is no such rule. Rule 2.42(i) does not appear in the Florida
Rules of J udicial Administration. In the past you treated my public records requests as a request
for judicial records pursuant to Rule 2.420, Florida Rule of J udicial Administration. Please
respond pursuant to Rule 2.420.
Ms. Burge wrote at footnote 1 to Number of copies 98 the following:
In order to ensure compliance with your request, a copy of the entire package of
documents received on December 11, 2012 is being provided including a copy of the
front of an unlabeled CD and the received date stamped back of the CD envelope as well
as a copy of the received date stamped envelope in which the documents were received.
All documents received in the Legal Department from outside of the courthouse are date
stamped upon receipt. No log of received documents is maintained.
The invoice shows Total advanced payment due $33.32 and:
Advance payment must be made by money order or cashiers check. The payment must
be made payable to BOCC, with a notation on the money order or cashiers check clearly
stating: J udicial Records Request Advanced Payment.
In the past I paid for records requests by money order payable directly to the provider, the Clerk
or the Court, not to the BOCC, which is the Board of County Commissioners of Hillsborough
County. What accounts for the change in procedure? The online BOCC Records Department
information states County government dating back to 1846 can be researched through the
official minutes of the meetings of the Board of County Commissioners. Ordinances, resolutions,
agreements and the official minutes of the Board of County Commissioners are available.
Mr. Rowland, I requested judicial records, not BOCC records. (Rule 2.420, Fla. R. J ud. Admin.)
David A. Rowland, General Counsel J une 3, 2013
Thirteenth J udicial Circuit Of Florida Page - 2
My records request shows delivery to the Thirteenth J udicial Circuit by UPS on May 17, 2013 at
11:35 AM, signed for by Trador. Enclosed you will find a composite of UPS tracking and
proof of delivery documents for tracking number 1Z64589FP291464859, which is the same
tracking number that appears on my records request to you dated May 16, 2013, copy enclosed.
Mr. Rowland, your response to my records request, by and through Ms. Burge, is not in
compliance with the Florida Rules of J udicial Administration. Also, I do not appreciate efforts
by you and your staff to create a false record of the date UPS delivered my request to your
office, the statement by Ms. Burge that my request was delivered May 20, 2013 via UPS
Ground. Ms. Burge is wrong; it was delivered May 17, 2013 at 11:35 AM.
Mr. Rowland, you need not demonstrate time and again that you and your staff are dishonest, or
that the Thirteenth J udicial Circuit is a black hole of injustice. Those facts are public knowledge,
thanks in part to the grand jury presentment December 8, 2000, An Investigation Into Judicial
Misconduct In Hillsborough County. Therefore a reasonable person could conclude the truth of
this fact is so well known that it cannot be refuted. See Fla. Stat. 90.201-207, J udicial Notice.
Mr. Rowland, is Sandra Burge a Florida Registered Paralegal as defined by Rule 20-2.1(b) of the
Rules Regulating The Florida Bar? Your professional conduct, and that of Mr. Nauman, is
regulated The Florida Bar. If Ms. Burge is a Florida Registered Paralegal, her conduct is
regulated by The Bar. If not, Ms. Burges conduct is not regulated, and I request no further
contact from her. Instead, please respond personally, or designate someone to respond who is
regulated by The Florida Bar. I expect to make additional records requests and do not wish
continued misconduct therein by an unregulated person of dubious character and training.
While the invoice provided by Ms. Burge is dated May 21, 2013, it appeared at my home four
days later, May 25, 2013, and was received after the usual mail delivery. The envelope was not
found in my U.S. Postal Service mailbox, but in the cubby, a term for a second container under
the mailbox for non-U.S. mail items like flyers, designated for such use by the developer of Oak
Run, the 55+community where I live. As such, the U.S. mail is not an expeditious way to
provide the records. And I do not understand Ms. Burges statement that Upon receipt of
payment the copies will be released to the address shown above via U.S. mail.
In lieu of releasing copies to an address via the U.S. mail, enclosed you will find a pre-addressed
UPS Ground return shipping label from my UPS account. You may attached the label, which I
placed for you in a self-adhering plastic pouch for shipping labels, so that you may ship the
records to me via UPS Ground return service with a tracking number. That will eliminate any
vagaries of the U.S. mail. For your information, all UPS Ground shipping within the state of
Florida is delivered next day, unless shipped on Friday.
Given the issues you and your staff have concocted with UPS shipping, I plan to personally
contact Mr. D. Scott Davis, Chairman & CEO of United Parcel Service, Inc., Atlanta, Georgia.
Mr. Davis is aware of Petition No. 12-7747 because I provided him a copy.
In J anuary 2013 I sent a letter of appreciation to Mr. Davis acknowledging the local UPS driver
Randy Brices who assisted me getting Petition No. 12-7747 to the Supreme Court on time. My
David A. Rowland, General Counsel J une 3, 2013
Thirteenth J udicial Circuit Of Florida Page - 3
letter must have made a good impression. Randy called me and said Mr. Davis personally
thanked him, and that Mr. Davis had my letter mounted on a plaque which was presented to
Randy during a driver appreciation ceremony at the UPS depot in Ocala, Florida.
Mr. Davis is a fellow alum of The Wharton School; he of the Advanced Management Program,
and me of the Evening Division. I will ask Mr. Davis about Rule 29 proof of service and UPS,
and your misrepresentation to the Florida Attorney General that I did not provide (by UPS) my
petition to you December 11, 2012 as counsel for the Thirteenth J udicial Circuit, Florida.
Mr. Rowland, please respond to my records request as provided by Rule 2.420, Fla. R. J ud.
Admin. Please ship the records to me using the enclosed UPS Ground return shipping label.
Kindly remove the $3.77 charge for postage in your response under Rule 2.240. Upon receipt of
a corrected invoice, I will pay you for the records with a U.S. Postal Service money order. On
information and belief, payment should be made to the Thirteenth J udicial Circuit, and not the
BOCC. If you believe otherwise, please inform the undersigned, with a citation to rule or law.
Also, what options are available to view the file and the records in person? Please advise.
Thank you in advance for the courtesy of a prompt response, made in accord with the laws of
Florida, either by you personally, or a legal professional regulated by The Florida Bar. Please
respond as Court Counsel for the Thirteenth J udicial Circuit, Florida on letterhead of the legal
department. Do not provide a response on plain paper as done by your paralegal assistant.
Sincerely,
Neil J . Gillespie
