<sup>The following errors were made during the course of events from my arrest through my trial and appeal process:

I.  Arrest Affidavit:
    a.  States that I hired myself to kill James.
    b.  States that Dallas Christian drove the car to the house (before the shooting),
         and that I drove the car away from the house after the shooting.  I was at work, 55 miles away.
    c.  States that Christian and Weir informed them of being hired.  Weir's
        statement disputes this to include no mention of me at all.
    d.  The Arrest Affidavit was previously used for someone else with my name
        interpolated into the warrant.</sup>

         information and contained the wrong case law citations.
     b.  Mr. Bertin never perfected the appeal. Ineffective Appellate Attorney

*In my direct appeal, the 1st Judgment was withdrawn and then the lower court's ruling was affirmed.  The first sentence by the Justice states:
       "Being that appellant does not contest the sufficiency of the evidence,
        our ruling is based on..."</sup>
