I must have this issue between you and I resolved before sentencing.
I wasnt aware of the ability to phone the Court, for some reason I thought something had to be filed in
writing.
The other issues I am asking you address are the Conspiracy and Cover Up that grows larger everyday...
Also I read where Mr. Sommerfeld offered he case agents notes...... I asked Mr. Samuel for that a couple
of times and was ignored. Can I please be provided a copy.
Thanks,
-Chris

While you can only focus on the conspiracy against you, the drum still beats everyday closer and closer
to your sentencing. And, you have refused to assist me in that endeavor. Will have all of those character
letters for me Monday morning? What if the judge doesn't want to hear from you until sentencing? Don't
you think we should still prepare? What if he won't give you another lawyer if that is what you want? Don't
you think we should prepare? And what is it you think Judge Cooper is going to do when he hears the
conspiracy and cover up you keep alleging? Is he going to order the government to dismiss the case
against you? Why not just address the cover up at sentencing? As usual, you are leaving me in the lurch.
Also, i don't have the case agent's notes and Don Samuel was never entitled to them until those agents
testfied at trial.

I asked you six times if you want me terminated both orally and on writing. Your only answer is you just
want to talk to the court.
So what the heck does that mean? What kind of motion should I file? Defendant wants to speak to judge?
I have explained it to case manager that you have some personal issues you would like to address and it
is unclear as to whether you want me as your attorney. I asked you three emails ago answer yes or no do
you want a new attorney and you just wrote an answer that had nothing to do with the question. So t
sounds like you do not want a different lawyer. When I asked you on the phone , you wouldn't give me a
straight answer other than you want to get this whole thing over with.
[CMS] What I said was "I don't know what I am allowed to do or not to do."
Due to the fact that I was told all of the issues were going to be presented through my testimony and
were not and your decision not to inform the Court of the issues that have compromised my defense, I
believe I should be allowed an opportunity to present these to the Court BEFORE I am convicted.
[CMS] Evidently that will not be through you, so since I do not know my available options, I ask that the
Court direct me as to what my options are.
Second, my role as your lawyer in this thing at this point has nothing to do with addressing a conspiracy
and cover up. My job is to fight against you going to prison for the next ten years.
[CMS] As a "officer of the Court" and as a lawyer, it is my understanding that a lawyer has the
responsibility to take some action when there is knowledge of a crime. Just becuase it has been kept
"hush-hush" by all of the other "officers of the Court" doesn't mean it makes it acceptable.
The so called conspiracy and cover up which I would term more as bad lawyering on behalf of Traub,
Arent Fox et al.
[CMS] You call that "bad lawyering".... according to the law, it's called a CRIME!! It is what I am
going to prison for, correct....a CRIME!!
The problem for you and everyone else has is, no one, no one can "untangle" the lawyers!!!!
They are intertwined in the crimes I am loosing liberty over..... and everyone just seems fine with
that....
[CMS] These legal invoices implicates the lawyers in the alleged crimes as DNA found at a crime scene
can implicate a suspect..... It is that concrete... It is evidence that the lawyers
unequivocally “furthered” the alleged illegal business and according to the Rule of Law, these acts
implicate the lawyers as “co-conspirators.”
Yet, you Mr. Garland and Mr. Samuel and the government have turned a "blind-eye" to that.....
PLEASE show me the law where the crime stops with me and provides immunity to the lawyers............
While you can only focus on the conspiracy against you, the drum still beats everyday closer and closer
to your sentencing.
[CMS] Yes, and everyday you avoided addressing the facts as stated above, making me the main focus
of the wrongdoing, I believe did drown out the other drum that was beating, the drum all you guys
decided to march to.... You and your fellow "officers of the Court" elected to mask the real target and
protect the 'brotherhood of attorneys" rather to save than uphold the rule of law.
[CMS] When "officers of the Court" are spending more time scheming ways to skirt around the
TRUTH, having to create an appearance that is acceptable to the Court as done in this case, me assisting
in anything other than exposing the truth is not what I am willing to do.
What if the judge doesn't want to hear from you until sentencing?
[CMS] That's why I cannot hope or wait on you or anyone else for....
Don't you think we should still prepare? What if he won't give you another lawyer if that is what you want?
Don't you think we should prepare?
[CMS] Yes, but someone needs to be an "officer of the Court" and inform the Court of the facts
before another day goes by.
And what is it you think Judge Cooper is going to do when he hears the conspiracy and cover up you
keep alleging?
[CMS] It is what it is at this point....I didn't sign-up for all of this..... this is NOT GOING AWAY Mr.
Zimmerman and I am sad to see you are now tangled up in it. You can't unscramble an egg......what is
done is done and 5 days remain and none of the "officers of the Court" can be forthcoming and
honest.....
[CMS] I didn't make up the Rules of Law, I didn't BREAK the Rules of Law, I have followed the Rules of
Law!
The facts PROVE the Rules of Law were violated by the very ones entrusted to uphold the rules of Law,
the "officers of the Court"
Also, i don't have the case agent's notes and Don Samuel was never entitled to them until those agents
testfied at trial.
Mr Zimmerman,
I must have this issue between you and I resolved before sentencing.

I am not part of that crime as you well know. I have told you and the court (last time in
court) and the prosecutors that if you followed your attorneys advice: Buddy Parker et
al. from the beginning to the tee, then they are just as culpable as you. Remember, I
had that discussion with the AUSA's that you call thugs and told them this was selective
prosecution. They told me it is their choice who to prosecute and they weren't
prosecuting Buddy Parker et. al.
If I understand you at this point, you just want the court t know that these lawyers also
were part of a crime. If you remember, I sent a letter to the Attorney General regarding
the same issue without any response. I am not trying to brainwash you. At the motion to
withdraw plea, the legal contracts/invoices had no great legal relevance to those issues.
You can present those invoices (for the 100th time I have said this) only if you could
raise an advice of counsel defense or good faith defense etc... Again, the court knows
clear well that lawyers gave you this advice. Don Samuel testified to that issue.
I don't know what you are talking about with a brotherhood of attorneys. I have zero
loyalty to Buddy Parker or any of the other people involved. Not ONE of them has ever
done anything for me, and I don't even know Buddy Parker, Darren Traub, Arent Fox,
Don Samuel, Ed Garland. Well, the latter two I only know from court and seminars.
Buddy Parker I don't know him whatsover except what he looks like.
This is tiresome. I have no problem with you standing up at sentencing and telling
Judge Cooper all of this. The reason it didn't happen at the last hearing is that there are
rules of evidence. Judge Cooper kept cutting you off because the information was
irrelevant. At sentencing, the rules of evidence are very relaxed.

I plan on being at Mr. Brown's office at 9 AM for the deposition. As I am sure you understand, you have
many serious matters to address as early as you can.... I do not know where that leaves me with
meeting with him. If I am not suppose to meet with him due to the urgency needed in addressing the
black cloud that is hovering over this case, please let me know.
Respectfully,

Chris,
[CMS] This is so far out of control, but waiting another day and not taking any action
is unacceptable!!
[CMS] I suggested a while back you demand a special prosecutor or ask that the Court perform an
Official Inquiry..... A special prosecutor can determine who is part of the crime and who is not. A special
prosecutor will not be "wowed" by Don Samuel or Ed Garland or by the AUSA's.
[CMS] I do know this, you need to seek advice from someone who is not "tainted" in this process......
someone who will not have a conflict.
In fact, seeking advice already involved if only compounds your involvement.
[CMS] Once again, I do not know what is incumbent upon you to do, but everyday that goes by that you
fail to take action, according to the rule of law, you are "part of the crime" Mr. Zimmerman.
I have told you and the court (last time in court) and the prosecutors that if you followed your
attorneys advice: Buddy Parker et al. from the beginning to the tee, then they are just as culpable
as you.
[CMS] Mentioning it in a nonchalant manner in Court evidential it not the correct procedure......
Remember, I had that discussion with the AUSA's that you call thugs and told them this was
selective prosecution. They told me it is their choice who to prosecute and they weren't
prosecuting Buddy Parker et. al.
[CMS] I am sorry but you know as well as I do, they are not above the law.....
Yes, they have discretion of prosecution, but not to the extent as they have done in this case....they do
not have the authority to "undo" the acts....
If I understand you at this point, you just want the court t know that these lawyers also were part
of a crime.
[CMS] We are unfortunate way past the point of just reporting what I want you to do....."you" are
obligated to take some SWIFT serious actions at this point in time. You need to follow the rules, which
we know has not been done.
If you remember, I sent a letter to the Attorney General regarding the same issue without any
response.
[CMS] The letter was about the 11th Circuit ruling, not about this!!!!
You have not reported the crimes as you see them to the AG.
I am not trying to brainwash you. At the motion to withdraw plea, the legal contracts/invoices
had no great legal relevance to those issues. You can present those invoices (for the 100th time I
have said this) only if you could raise an advice of counsel defense or good faith defense etc...
Again, the court knows clear well that lawyers gave you this advice. Don Samuel testified to that
issue.
[CMS] Once again, we are passed this issues and the legal invoices are most definitively RELEVANT and
the withholding of this vital information is "furthering" of the crime.
I don't know what you are talking about with a brotherhood of attorneys. I have zero loyalty to
Buddy Parker or any of the other people involved. Not ONE of them has ever done anything for
me, and I don't even know Buddy Parker, Darren Traub, Arent Fox, Don Samuel, Ed Garland.
Well, the latter two I only know from court and seminars. Buddy Parker I don't know him
whatsover except what he looks like.
[CMS] You need to be explaining this to the special prosecutor or whomever will see matters in this case
through......
This is tiresome. I have no problem with you standing up at sentencing and telling Judge Cooper
all of this.
[CMS] Once again, sentencing is too late... tomorrow morning there needs to be some answer
The reason it didn't happen at the last hearing is that there are rules of evidence. Judge Cooper
kept cutting you off because the information was irrelevant. At sentencing, the rules of evidence
are very relaxed.
[CMS] I am not even responding to this

The deposition Chris is at my office not Mr. Browns office. Be there on time; I will call the court again.
How about I file a motion removing myself as your lawyer. I will mention all the stuff below and attach it to
the motion.

Chris,
I need to be brutally honest with you. Your erratic behavior has me a little uneasy and it is growing more
erratic everyday. We need to sever our relationship immediately. As stated before, I will inform the court
that you need a new lawyer. You refuse to answer whether you want a new lawyer, but I just made that
choice myself. At this point, we no longer have a relationship; it has become mired in this black hole.
Thank you,
Lawrence

Mr. Zimmerman,
My "erratic" behavior is due to watching all of the cover-up, continued refusal to be forthcoming, and
lying to the Court by you, the other lawyers and the prosecutors. Please include the entire string of
emails in your Motion.
Do I just hold off on the meeting then with Mr. Brown? I can mail him the CD.
Thank you,
-Chris
