THE PARTIES
1.Movant Linda L. Shelton is a resident of Cook County and the State of Illinois. Sheis the Defendant in CCCC case number 04 CR 12718 (Appellate Court number 07-3383(direct appeal), Federal District Court number 09-C-105 (habeas petition); and CCCCcase number 04 CR 17571 (Appellate Court No. 09-0949 (direct appeal), Federal DistrictCourt number 08-C-6216 (habeas petition), Federal Seventh Circuit Court of Appealnumber 09-1386 (motion for COA upon dismissal of federal case)).2.Respondents, Honorable Sheila M. O’Brien, Honorable P. Scott Neville Jr.,Honorable Michael J. Gallagher, and Honorable John Owen Steele, are duly elected judges of the IL App. Ct., consistent with the laws of the State of Illinois, the County of Cook, and the Illinois Supreme Court Rules.
STATEMENT OF LAW
For Appellate review indigent defendants are entitled to a record of proceedings.“Destitute defendants must be afforded as adequate appellate review as defendants whohave money to buy transcripts.” Griffin v. Illinois 351 U.S. 12, 19 (1956) IllinoisSupreme Court Rule 607 (b) requires that if a trial court determines that a defendant isindigent and requests a free copy of the record of proceedings that the trail court shallorder the court reporter to prepare an original and copy of the transcripts, shall file onecopy with the trial court clerk and shall deliver the other copy to the defendant or his/her appellate attorney. Any court that fails to enforce such orders is violating a defendant’s2
 
constitutional right to appeal and the court’s oath of office to enforce the law, bringing thecourt into disrepute.
FACTS
Movant/Defendant, in CCCC case number 05 CR 12718, was indicted for thealleged criminal act of aggravated battery to a peace officer on May 25, 2005, despite thefact that Sgt. Salemi (alleged victim) attacked Movant, falsified his records to say sheattacked him, and committed perjury at trial. Movant/Defendant is actually innocent. Shewas tried by a biased jury, wrongfully found guilty, and illegally sentenced on December 3, 2007 to two (2) years Illinois Department of Corrections and one (1) year mandatorysupervised release, due to perjury by the State witness Sgt. Salemi, extreme prosecutorialmisconduct by ASAs Andrew Dalkin and John Maher, as well as due to inexcusable judicial bias and misconduct by Judge Joseph Kazmierski. This conviction is presently onappeal in the IL App. Ct., as well as under consideration of the Federal District Court on aPetition for Writ of Habeas Corpus. Honorable Federal Judge Coar has ruled that theinordinate delays caused by the IL App. Ct. (in denying repeatedly Movant’s/Defendant’smotions to compel the CCCC Court Reporters to follow the orders of the Trial Court by preparing and filing the record of proceedings with the CCCC Clerk) serves as a waiver of the State of Illinois’ right to insist Movant/Defendant exhaust state remedies (ExhibitA).Movant/Defendant is representing herself on appeal, has been declared indigent by the Trial Court, and the Trial Court ordered the CCCC Court Reporter to prepare two3

US Supreme Court does not have supervisory authority over state courts but has appellate authority regarding constitutional issues over state courts. Therefore, I have to write a motion for certiorari with the US S Ct and NOT a motion for supervisory order.

Il S Ct case number 108695 denied on July 20, 2009. I now have to go to the US S Ct for a motion for supervisory order to enforce their previous holding that a criminal defendant has an absolute right to a free copy of the transcripts (record of proceedings) to be filed with the Trial Court Clerk. This is proof positive of the "Myth of American Justice" and the fact that the IL Courts are corrupt all the way through the IL S Ct.
