Re: Administrative request and notice regarding evidence portal for [Case Name] — [Case No.]
Dear Presiding Judge Hernandez:
I amMichael Andrew Gasio, proceeding pro se and a retired 72 year old former Public School Principal / Vice Principal/ teacher. I seek administrative guidance to ensure compliance with rules against ex parte communications while preserving a clean record. I am not asking the Court to decide the merits in this letter.
Purpose
- To notice the Court that all documentary and media evidence is centralized in a time‑stamped, read‑only web portal and has been served on all parties.
- To request direction on how to lodge the portal as a courtesy copy and how to reference it at hearings without violating local rules.
- To memorialize a brief timeline relevant to discovery, counsel withdrawal, and preservation of records.
Evidence portal
URL:https://gasiomirror.com
Access: [law]
Scope: Read‑only repository with page‑level tags, hash values, and automatic version history.
The portal is organized for courtroom use and contains:
- Contracts in dispute (three contracts) and a move‑out / account transfer sequence with ledgers and bank records.
- Receipts including a written receipt for June, plus rent and deposit records.
- Service log: UPS/USPS tracking, recipient list, proof of hard‑copy service on PD/DA where applicable, and email service to all parties.
- Notices offering one month of free access to the portal; each page publication was CC’d to all parties and is logged with timestamps.
- Chronology of investigated conduct through the close of the investigation window on [date].
- Statutory index cited in pleadings, including 18 U.S.C. §§ 1341/1343, 1961–1964 and California authorities referenced in filings. Any reference to “RICO” is limited to legal theories pled or to be pled; no ex parte merits argument is made here.
- Audio, images, and metadata where lawfully collected, with chain‑of‑custody notes.
Procedural posture and timeline (condensed)
- Parties executed the three contracts at issue. Key terms and payment schedules are indexed as Exhibits A–C.
- Alleged transfer of tenant funds to a private account following issuance of a written receipt for June; supporting ledgers and communications are Exhibits D–F.
- Investigation window opened; records preservation notices sent. Window closed on
- Prior counsel retained for $8,000.Counsel noticed intent to withdraw; withdrawal completed by mail the night before the jury trial setting, leaving me to proceed pro se. Proof of service and correspondence are Exhibits G–H.
- Fromto present: All filings, discovery, and service events mirrored to the portal and served on all parties.
Requests for administrative direction
- Permission to lodge the portal URL and a read‑only offline copy with the Clerk as a courtesy copy for chambers, tied to [Case No.].
- Guidance on citing specific portal exhibit IDs on the record at hearings and in briefs, consistent with the California Rules of Court and local e‑filing rules.
- Confirmation that future updates will be noticed via service list and monthly portal digest to avoid any ex parte concern.
- Any additional steps the Court prefers for chain‑of‑custody or authenticity, including stipulations under Evidence Code §§ 1400–1421 or motions in limine.
Service and compliance
I certify that this letter and the portal link have been served on all counsel and parties. A current service list and tracking numbers appear below and within the portal.
