Letter to OPP (08/10/08

Office of Public Prosecutions
Ms. Raeleene Maxwell
565 Lonsdale St 8th October 2008
Melbourne VIC 3000

Dear Ms Raeleene Maxwell Re:Case No. X00340105

I write to bring to you attention a number of issue concerning this matter:-

Firstly, I received the Statement by M. A. Casley Senior Constable, plus photos, which. I thank you for.

Secondly, To make you aware that I have been disadva0ntaged by an error of judgement made at the Marybrough Court on the 8th April 2008, As the Magistrate may have erred in this ruling, as I reside closer to Marybrough and the Moligul property is where more major offence occurred. For your convenience I have enclosed copies of letter "complaint" dated:-
16Th July 2008 To Senior Registrar Stephen Merbach Ballarat, which highlights my reason for concern.

I feel aggrieved by the action of the Magistrate at the Marybrough Magistrates’ Court on the 8th April 2008, and at the St. Arnaud Magistrates Court. 22 May 2008. I trust that any further matters are dealt with in the appropriate Ballarat Court. not the Horsham Courts.

As you are aware of my position and role with in the Aboriginal community, I only ask to be given the same opportunity and courtesy given to others in our community, and as expected by the general public of Victoria.

Thirdly I have also enclosed herewith, a copy, of Sruntiny of Acts and Regulations Committee Executive Officer Helen M Mason, dated 26 August 1996, Which demonstrates the fact that the Victoria Government has no legislated Act, to make laws order and good government for the Indigenous People of Victoria. I note that Victorian Constitution Act 1975 No. 88750 does not mention the Aboriginal People at all.

Considering the time already elapsed, I ask have as yet obtain any documentation or evidence whatsoever that contradicts the above. It would be appreciated if you could forward copies of such at your most earliest moment.

Yours sincerely

Need the answers to legal (2) issues

The following is (in part) letters to A-G.and his department responce, I feel the Attorney-General may not realise the importance of the questions put to him.

1st July 2008 Letter to Attorney-General Rob Hulls,." As advised, I now ask the Attorney-General, to clarify if the issue at hand,
1. Has the Victorian Parliament the proper legislated power to make laws for the Aboriginal People of Victoria, Considering that The Victorian Constitution Act 1975 does not mention the Aboriginal race of Victoria.

2. If the Courts Jurisdiction is question in the Magistrates Court, should the matter then be transferred to The Supreme Court of Victoria, to address the Jurisdiction issue.

3rd August 2008 To Attorney-General Rob Hulls, "Re: Courts Jurisdiction I write to bring to your attention that as yet I have not received any response to the Urgent issues raised in my Letter dated 1st July 2008".. "As this matter is most urgent and of growing public interest, it would be greatly appreciated if you attend to the matters raised at your earliest opportunity"

6th August 2008. From Attorney-General "We have received your correspondence of 1 July and your further letter of 3 August".." correspondence is referred to the Department of Justice for a response to be prepared. Due to the volume received and the work involved immediate responses cannot be provided" Yours sincerely, Lyn Malone,DLO Justice Office, Office of the Attorney-General

13 From the Department of Justice, Office of the Executive Director, Courts On behalf of Attorney-General Rob Hulls, You have requested that the Attorney-General clarify the following issues" (see 1. and 2 as 1st July 2008 ) "I note that you currently have a matter before the Magistrates' Court. The matters you raised are legal issues; neither the Attorney-General nor any public servant can provide you with legal advice about your mater.
signed JOHN GRIFFIN, PSM Executive Director, Courts

I point out, the only time people need to clarify Legal Issues is when the matter is before the Courts, It is very disappointing that the Attorney-General or no public servant can not provide this legal advice. Why is this so?

Is it because,

(a) The former Minister for Aboriginal Affairs Mr. Jennings. media release of dated Wednesday, 8 June 2005, made it know that "From July 1st ATSIC regional councils end and their will be no formal representative striation in Victoria for Government to hear the views of Indigenous People" or

(b) "The matters raised are legal issues; would that clarify that the Victorian Government has no power to make Laws for peace, order and Good Government for the aboriginal people of Victoria

Your personal comments would be greatly appreciated,

Your sincerely
