Certified U.S. Mail c/o 2509 N. Campbell, #1776 Serial Number #P-476-653-251 Tucson, Arizona state Return Receipt Requested zip code exempt Restricted Delivery Requested June 15, 1996 Ms. Harriet L. Turney General Counsel "State Bar of Arizona" 111 West Monroe, Suite 1800 Phoenix, Arizona state CONSTRUCTIVE NOTICE AND DEMAND Re: State of Arizona, The Oath of Admission to the Bar Status of "State Bar of Arizona" under state law Dear Ms. Turney: I am doing some research for a client who wishes to present certified evidence to a federal court of the official wording of "The Oath of Admission to the Bar" and of the "Lawyer's Creed of Professionalism of the State Bar of Arizona" which is mentioned in the former Oath (see attached). Would you be so kind as to provide us with a certified copy of said Lawyer's Creed as soon as possible? Because of related research which we have been doing with other investigators around the country, we have reason to believe that the Lawyer's Creed is written so as to override all previous statements, including that part of The Oath of Admission to the Bar which states that the affiant "will support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of Arizona." We need confirmation from the source on this point. Moreover, we have contacted the Office of the Arizona Secretary of State, and the "State Bar of Arizona" is not registered to do business in Arizona. If this is so, then would you please be so kind as to provide us with correct citations to the statute(s) and/or constitutional provision(s) which authorize the "State Bar of Arizona" to issue licenses to practice law in the State of Arizona? Since your letter will become a matter of evidence in one or more federal court cases, please certify your answer under penalty of perjury, so as to render your written response admissible, pursuant to the appropriate section of 28 U.S.C. 1746 and the Federal Rules of Evidence. One last thing: we will also need a certified copy of your license to practice law in the State of Arizona, if you have one. If we do not hear from you within ten (10) working days, we will be entitled to proceed on the basis of the conclusive presumption that the requested documents do not exist, on the strength of the following authority: "Silence can only be equated with fraud where there is a legal or a moral duty to speak, or where an inquiry unanswered would be intentionally misleading." U.S. v. Tweel, 550 F.2d 297, 299 (1977). Sincerely yours, /s/ Paul Andrew Mitchell Paul Andrew, Mitchell, B.A., M.S.
