Re:             Appointment of Arthur Schneider
            Letter Mayer to Langan dated 9-24-14 sent via fax

Dear Judge Langan,
It clear via the approach Mr Schneider has taken, his refusal to explain the legal dynamics, clarify discrepencies or communicate with me at all that he is not interested in representing my safety or interests.    Here  a link to our conversation on August 30, 2014 10:25am and message left August 30, 2014 10:32am. 
If it is easier please send me your email and I will forward the click to allow you to simply click it.
Please acknowledge and honor my decision to remove his “representation” on June 5, 2014.
Thank you for your continued attentions to these matters.

Sincerely,

Michelle I. Mayer

Re: Fax Peekskill City Court to MMayer

Dear Judge Langan,
Thank you for your response via fax dated September 24, 2014 in response to some of the information and requests included in letters dated August 29, September 5, September 17, 2014 I faxed to the court.
Missing from your response, yet crucial are the discrepancies
-              How is it I am faulted and warrant issued for non-appearance of a date I was unaware of via the court sending to contact information different than I provided?  Proof via documentation was faxed to the court proving I had not received the August 7, 2014 appearance date until August 27, 2014.  If further documentation or clarification is required please advise.
-                    In summons dated July 17th, 2014 charge lists disorderly conduct: fight/violent behavior, which differs from the ticket, issued that lists disorderly conduct.  ***Note:  no law violated is listed in the space provided for that information***
-                    During the call with Mr. Schneider on August 30, 2014 he stated I needed to turn my self in and bring $500 cash.  What is the purpose of arresting me and requiring bail.  Is not the purpose of bail to assure attendance to the issues?  That is what I have been and am already doing.  And how is it he knows what it will be or that I can walk in with it?  Seems off.

Also needing clarification:
-                    In letter dated August 9, 2014 Schneider to Mayer it states I am charged with bail jumping on a ticket (attached) that lists Released on Own Recognizence therefore bail was not posted and could not have been “jumped”
-                    The letters  also contained different contact information that provided to the court, though different that the court utilized (see attached) which is why I did not received them until August 27th, 2014.  It is a surprising I received them at all.
-                      Letters received from Mr. Schneider (attached) have one docket number 14-0806 and the faxes re non appearance contain two docket numbers 13-0407 and 14-0806.  Please advise.
The record is clear, Arthur Schneider Esq. does not demonstrate via his actions he is willing or able to represent my interests in these matters.  Given the facts I believe to be forced to continue with him puts my freedom, safety health and well being in danger.
That events have occurred as they have is terrifyingly Kafkaesque and I do not believe I will be safe or permitted to leave if I surrender myself to the police department whom I provided video evidence of abuse and showed the bruises left in open court on June 5, 2014.
If these matters are to continue please allow me to submit a statement regarding the events of May 31, 2014 associated with the ticket issued.

Thank you for your continued attention to these matters, please include in your response:
-       Copy of charges not yet received
-       Copy of any statements on record regarding any pending charges- to date not yet received
-       Law I am charged with violating; missing from the ticket - to date not yet received
-       Charges associated with listed docket numbers

Sincerely,

Michelle I. Mayer

Encl:              - Ticket issued listing Disorderly Conduct and no law ***note: violent behavior listed in the summons dated July 17th, 2014 is not on the ticket issued, address is wrong and no law violated is listed.  When I asked question the latter two I was told only the judge can change a ticket once issued and Id have to wait till Monday in a cell to have it done.***
-Letter dated Mayer to Lagan dated June 17, 2014 ***note the is different from contact information provided to the court.***

-       A. Schneider to M Mayer Letters dated July 9, July 29, and August 9, 2014  recieved August 27, 2014 and responded to August 29, 2014 ***note: Aug 9 letter states I am charged with bail jumping on a ticket listing ROR***
