PUBLICREPORTANDORDERDISMISSINGCOMPLAINT
On Friday, March 7, 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 reVIew was limitedto questions of jurisdictionof the COITffilission and of the
adequacy ofthe details ofthe complaint to allege a violation ofthe Code ofEthics for Public
Officers and Employees. No factual investigation preceded the review, and therefore the
Commission'sconclusionsdonotreflectontheaccuracyoftheallegationsofthecomplaint.
The Commission voted to dismiss the complaint for lack oflegal sufficiency, based on
thefollowinganalysis:
1. Thiscomplaintwasfiled byNeilJ. GillespieofOcala,Florida.
2. TheRespondent, PatFrank, servesasClerkofthe CircuitCourtfor Hillsborough
County.
3. The complaint apparently alleges that the Respondent, as Court Clerk, misused
herpublicpositionbycorruptly conspiringwithothers inherofficeto deprive the Complainant
of his legal rights by complying with a "sham" judicial Order Prohibiting Plaintiff from
Appearing Pro Se and also by using the Respondent's public position and resources within her
trust to secure a special privilege, benefit, or exemption for an individual who allegedly filed
with the Florida Bar a "vexatious" Unlicensed Practice of Law complaint against the
Complainant.
4. The only provision of the Code of Ethics possibly implicated by the allegation is
Section 113.313(6), Florida Statutes, which states:
MISUSE OF PUBLIC POSITION.--No public officer, employee of an
agency, or local government attorney shall corruptly use or attempt to use his or
her official position or any property or resource which may be within his or her
trust, or perform his or her official duties, to secure a special privilege, benefit, or
exemption for himself, herself, or others.
Pursuant to Section 112.312(9), Florida Statutes, "corruptly" is defined as
... done with a wrongful intent and for the purpose of obtaining, or compensating
or receiving compensation for, any benefit resulting from some act or omission of
a public servant which is inconsistent with the proper performance of his or her
public duties.
Section 112.313(6) prohibits public officials and employees from corruptly using or attempting
to use their official positions or property or resources within their trust, and it prohibits them
from corruptly performing their official duties, in order to secure a special privilege, benefit, or
exemption for themselves or another.
5. The complaint fails to state a violation of Section 112.313(6) because the
allegations that the Respondent corruptly conspired to deprive the Complainant of his legal rights
and that the Respondent used her public position and resources within her trust to secure a
special benefit for an individual who allegedly filed a Florida Bar complaint against the
Complainant are speculative and conclusory and, therefore, insufficient to indicate a violation of
Section 112.313(6). Also, although the Complainant presumably suffered a detriment as a result
of the alleged Order Prohibiting Plaintiff from Appearing Pro Se, the complaint fails to allege in
2
a factual manner any privilege, benefit, or exemption to the Respondent or anyone else, as
requiredunderthestatute.
Accordingly, this complaint is hereby dismissed for failure to constitute a legally
sufficientcomplaintwitlltheissuanceof thispublicreport.

PUBLIC REPORT AND ORDER DISMISSING COMPLAINT
On Friday, March 7, 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 reviGw 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 tIle
Commission's conclusions do not reflect on the accuracy of the allegations of the complaint.
The Commission voted to dismiss the complaint for lack of legal sufficiency, based on
the following analysis:
1. This complaint was filed by Neil J. Gillespie of Ocala, 'Florida.
2. The Respondent, Dale Kent Bohner, allegedly serves as Counsel to the Clerk of
the Circuit Court for Hillsborough County.
3. The complaint apparently alleges tllat the Respondent, as Counsel to the Court
Clerk, misused his public position by corruptly conspiring with others in his office to deprive the
Complainant of his legal rights by complying with a "sham" judicial Order Prohibiting Plaintiff
from Appearing Pro Se and also by using the Respondent's public position and resources within
his trust to secure a special privilege, benefit, or exemption for an individual who allegedly filed

from corruptlyperforming theirofficial duties, in orderto secure a special privilege,benefit, or

If the complaint is legally sufficient but pertains solely to allegations of errors or omissions in
financial disclosure forms, a determination will be made as to whether the error(s) or
omissions(s) are significant to investigate. If the error(s) or omissions(s) are determined to be
minor or inconsequential, you will be so notified and will be given 30 days in which to correct
tIle error(s) or omission(s). If the correction is made, the complaint will be dismissed. Ifno
correction is made, the complaint will advance to the next step in the process.
If the complaint is found to be legally sufficient, a preliminary investigation will be undertaken
by the investigative staff of the Commission. The next stage of the Commission's proceedings
involves the preliminary investigation of the complaint and a decision by the Commission of
whether there is probable cause to believe that there has been a violation of any of the ethics
laws. If the complaint is investigated, you and the complainant will be given an opportunity to
speak with the investigator. You also will be sent a copy of our investigative report prior to any
action by the Commission and will be given the opportunity to respond to the report in writing.
If the Commission finds that there is no probable cause to believe that there has been a violation
of the ethics laws, the complaint will be dismissed and will become public at that time.
If the Commission finds that there is probable cause to believe there has been a violation of the
ethics laws, the complaint becomes public and enters the last stage of proceedings, which
requires that the Commission decide whether the law actually was violated and, if so, whether a
penalty should be recommended. At this stage, you have the right to request a public hearing
(trial) at which evidence would be presented, or the Commission may order that such a hearing
be held. Public hearings usually are held in or near the area where the alleged violation
occurred.
You are entitled to be represented by legal counsel during our proceedings. Upon written
request, documents and notices regarding the complaint will be provided to your attorney.

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 - J une 21, 2011.
Clerk Frank and Mr. Bohner have refused to docket my pro se filings in the case since at least
J uly 11, 2011 as shown below. Clerk Frank and Mr. Bohner claim reliance on an order entered
by J udge 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, J udge 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 J udge Cooks Order is enclosed.
Would you please explain why your office has not complied with J udge Cooks
Order?
Respectfully submitted,
Ryan Christopher Rodems
Virlindia A. Doss, Executive Director J anuary 24, 2014
Florida Commission on Ethics Page - 2
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
employees, and my former counsel Robert W. Bauer and his law firm, in my federal disability

In doing so, Clerk Frank and Mr. Bohner corruptly conspired to use her and his official position,
property, and resources within her and his trust to deny me due process under color of law.
5. Please find enclosed my 64 page affidavit, J une 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 J udicial
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 J udge Martha J . Cook in
this case. (Exhibit 1). The Order is a sham and did not address a bona fide issue. J udge
Cook corruptly entered the Order during a conflict of interest, while she was a Defendant
in my federal disability and civil rights lawsuit. J udge Cook entered the Order with a
corrupt motive, to stop legitimate inquiry showing her personal and business financial
affairs violated the Florida Code of J udicial Conduct. J udge Cook recused herself in this
case November 18, 2010, three days after entering the Order. J udge Cooks recusal
shows my motion to disqualify her was legally justified.
Virlindia A. Doss, Executive Director J anuary 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 J une 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 J udge 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.

property, and resources within her and his trust to secure a special privilege, benefit, or

This office is returning the following pleadings pursuant to the attached court order
signed on November 15, 2010:
1. Motion to Amend and Correct - Affidavit and Inventory of Personal Property
of Neil J . Gillespie and Designated Exemptions.
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
Bank (PAB) of Georgia shortly before it failed. PAB had not sent the money to the Clerk.

ADVISOR TO CLERK (PER COURT ORDER DATED 11/15/10)
Docket page 22 printed today J anuary 24, 2014 shows the above entries, and is enclosed.
D. APPELLANTS MOTION TO AMEND NOTICE OF APPEAL
Case No.: 2D10-5197
Lower Court Case No. 05-CA-007205
J uly 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 J udge
Cooks Order Prohibiting Plaintiff From Appearing Pro Se and accepted Gillespies
filings. (Exhibit 3). However in a letter dated J uly 11, 2011 (received by Gillespie J uly
14, 2011) the Clerk returned Gillespies filings submitted J uly 6, 2011 and filed J uly 7,
2011. (Exhibit 5). The Clerk even struck her own filed stamp. The Clerk returned
Gillespies Motion to Strike or Set Aside J oint 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 J uly 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 J udge 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 J anuary 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 J udicial 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 J ean Cook is an elected judge for the Thirteenth J udicial 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, J udge 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 J udge
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 J udge 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.J ud.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,
property, and resources within her and his trust to deny me due process under color of law.
10. In a letter to Mr. Bohner J anuary 7, 2014 I notified the Clerk in part,
It has come to my attention that your attached letter September 12, 2013 is not correct,
Virlindia A. Doss, Executive Director J anuary 24, 2014
Florida Commission on Ethics Page - 6
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.
and this docket entry in not correct or valid,
01/17/2012, DO NOT ENTER ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS PER D.
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.J ud.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 J udicial 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.
Virlindia A. Doss, Executive Director J anuary 24, 2014
Florida Commission on Ethics Page - 7
On information an belief, Clerk of Court Pat Frank, and you as counsel, are subject to
112.313(6) F.S., Misuse of Public Position:
112.313 Standards of conduct for public officers, employees of agencies, and
local government attorneys.
(6) MISUSE OF PUBLIC POSITION.No public officer, employee of an
agency, or local government attorney shall corruptly use or attempt to use his or
her official position or any property or resource which may be within his or her
trust, or perform his or her official duties, to secure a special privilege, benefit, or
exemption for himself, herself, or others. This section shall not be construed to
conflict with s. 104.31.
Also see 760.51 F.S., Violations of constitutional rights, civil action by the Attorney
General; civil penalty. Please take notice that A Public Office is a Public Trust.
My letter is enclosed.
11. Mr. Bohner responded by letter dated J anuary 14, 2014,
This letter will acknowledge receipt of your letter to me dated J anuary 7, 2014. I
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
to be destroyed or disposed of in Case 05-CA-007205, the Clerk will follow the
directions of the Court. Your application, when filed, will be forwarded to the
Court for consideration.

ADVISOR TO CLERK (PER COURT ORDER DATED 11/15/10)
Docket page 22 printed today J anuary 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 J udicial Circuit Florida, case no. 5:10-cv-00503, while corruptly
denying me a due process right of filing pleadings under color of law.

IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA
SECOND DISTRICT
NEIL J . GILLESPIE
Appellant,
Case No.: 2D10-5197
Lower Court Case No. 05-CA-007205
vs.
BARKER, RODEMS & COOK, PA, a Florida
Corporation; and WILLIAM J . COOK,
Appellees.
________________________________________/
APPELLANTS MOTION TO AMEND NOTICE OF APPEAL
Appellant pro se, Neil J . Gillespie (Gillespie) moves to amend his Notice of Appeal
and states:
1. Appellant filed a timely Notice of Appeal October 22, 2010 in the lower tribunal that
was transmitted to this Court and assigned case number 2D10-5197. Appellant appealed Final
Summary J udgment As To Count 1, September 28, 2010, and Order Adjudging Plaintiff Neil J .
Gillespie Contempt, September 30, 2010.
2. Subsequently J udge Martha Cook entered a number of additional orders, one prohibiting
Gillespie from appearing pro se. Gillespie moves to amend his notice of appeal to include orders
prohibiting him from appearing pro se, including:
a. Order To Show Cause Why Plaintiff Should Not Be Prohibited From Appearing
Pro Se, November 4, 2010, allowing 20 days for Plaintiff to respond; (Exhibit 1)
b. Order Prohibiting Plaintiff From Appearing Pro Se, November 15, 2010, entered
before the time expired for Plaintiff to respond to the Order to Show Cause. (Exhibit 2)
2
3. The Order Prohibiting Plaintiff From Appearing Pro Se was entered November 15, 2010
by J udge Cook. (Exhibit 2). On its face the Order is a sham, because J udge Cook entered the
Order before the time expired for Gillespie to respond. J udge Cooks Order to Show Cause Why
Plaintiff Should Not Be Prohibited From Appearing Pro Se was entered November 4, 2010
(Exhibit 1) and mandates:
It is therefore ORDERED that Plaintiff SHALL RESPOND to the motion, in writing,
within twenty days of the date of this order and SHOW CAUSE, if any, why the Clerk of
Court should not be instructed to reject for filing any future pleadings, petitions, motions
or other documents which he submits for filing unless they are signed by a member of
The Florida Bar.
The twenty day time period to respond would have run through November 24, 2010 plus an
additional 5 days for service by mail, or November 29, 2010. Order Prohibiting Plaintiff From
Appearing Pro Se was entered November 15, 2010 thereby denying Gillespie nine (9) days to
respond.
4. The Order Prohibiting Plaintiff From Appearing Pro Se (Exhibit 2) states this case is
presently pending appellate review of a final summary judgment order and There is nothing left
to litigate at this time. ( 2). Yet Mr. Rodems continued to file pleadings in the trial court to
disrupt the appeal in 2D10-5197, and force a settlement from Gillespie while in custody of the
Hillsborough County Sheriffs Office on a writ of bodily attachment that followed another sham
Order of J udge Cook, Order Adjudging Plaintiff Neil J . Gillespie Contempt, entered September
30, 2010, and subsequently impeached by a J anuary 12, 2011 letter from Major Livingston, the
HCSO Commander of Court Operations.
3
5. On April 26, 2011 Mr. Rodems moved to strike Gillespies pleadings with Defendants
Motion To Strike Pro Se Filings By Plaintiff. (Exhibit 4).
6. J udge Cook was a defendant in a federal lawsuit when the Orders in Exhibits 1 and 2
were issued, and therefore J udge Cook had a conflict of interest with Gillespie, who was a
plaintiff in the federal lawsuit, Gillespie v. Thirteenth J udicial Circuit, Florida, et al., case no.
5:10-cv-00503, US District Court, MD FL, Ocala Division.
7. Mr. Rodems and William J . Cook, partners at Barker, Rodems & Cook, P.A., and
Appellees and Appellees counsel in this case and appeal, have made campaign contributions to
J udge Martha Cook. Gillespie did not make a campaign contribution to J udge Cook, putting him
at severe disadvantage. University of Tennessee College of Law Professor Benjamin H. Barton,
author of the book The Lawyer-J udge Bias in the American Legal System, wrote that virtually
all American judges are former lawyers, a shared background that results in the lawyer-judge
bias. Professor Bartons book argues that these lawyer-judges instinctively favor the legal
profession in their decisions and that this bias has far-reaching and deleterious effects on
American law. Professor Barton discussed this in a YouTube video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hbs_3lePAjE&feature=player_embedded
8. The timing of J udge Cooks Order, November 15, 2010, is suspect and coincides with her
Order Denying Fourth Motion To Disqualify Trial J udge of even date which showed J udge Cook
was insolvent. J udge Cooks Order prohibiting Gillespie from appearing pro se was an effort to
silence legitimate inquiry into her financial affairs, which showed that J udge Cook was insolvent
due to a near-collapse of the family business, Community Bank of Manatee, which was
operating under Consent Order, FDIC-09-569b and OFR 0692-FI-10/09. As shown in Plaintiffs
4th Motion To Disqualify J udge Martha J . Cook, filed November 10, 2010, J udge Cooks
4
financial affairs violated the Code of J udicial Canons 2, 3, 5 and 6. J udge Cooks small ($276M)
nonmember FDIC insured bank lost over $10 million dollars in 2009 and 2010. In 2009 the bank
sold a controlling interest to a foreign national, who during the review process in Florida, failed
to disclose that his past employer, ABN AMRO Bank, faced one of the largest Money
Laundering and Trading With The Enemy cases ever brought by the Department of J ustice.
9. J udge Cook recused herself sua sponte November 18, 2010, the same day Gillespie filed
his Verified Emergency Motion For Writ of Prohibition and Motion for Order of Protection in
this Court, case no. 2D10-5529.
10. For almost eight (8) months the Clerk of the Circuit Court did not comply with J udge
Cooks Order Prohibiting Plaintiff From Appearing Pro Se and accepted Gillespies filings.
(Exhibit 3). However in a letter dated J uly 11, 2011 (received by Gillespie J uly 14, 2011) the
Clerk returned Gillespies filings submitted J uly 6, 2011 and filed J uly 7, 2011. (Exhibit 5). The
Clerk even struck her own filed stamp. The Clerk returned Gillespies Motion to Strike or Set
Aside J oint 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 J uly 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.
11. GiventhattheOrderProhibitingPlaintiff FromAppearingProSeisashamassetforthin

RE: Your letter September 12, 2013
Dear Mr. Bohner:
It has come to my attention that your attached letter September 12, 2013 is not correct,
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.
and this docket entry in not correct or valid,
01/17/2012, DO NOT ENTER ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS PER D.
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.J ud.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.

Florida, is a court created by statute to administer, apply, and interpret the laws of the

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.
On information an belief, Clerk of Court Pat Frank, and you as counsel, are subject to

agency, or local government attorney shall corruptly use or attempt to use his or
her official position or any property or resource which may be within his or her
trust, or perform his or her official duties, to secure a special privilege, benefit, or
