Re: Docket Number G0328-09

To whom it may concern:

My name is Ellen Sinclair I am writing in regards to Docket number G0328-09. As you can see this case is from 7 yrs. ago. A time
in my life I made many bad choices. These bad choices continued for many years, to a point I ended up in the State Prison in
Boise Idaho. It turned out to be the wakeup call I needed. Since being paroled, I have found employment with Harry and David.
My employment started out as seasonal this last winter however because of my hard work I have gone from seasonal to year
around employment. With this employment I have been paying what I can every payday toward the fines and fees which I
choose to overlook for so many years. I have made some headway in getting them paid off and paid down. I have got all the
fees from Idaho paid down to around $100.00 and making my probation fees here in Oregon as well as paying off other debt
from those past years. In addition I am actively helping take care of my Mother and Father as they are in declining health. My
mother is bedridden in a nursing home with multiple strokes and my Father with serious medical issues of his own. My father
has indicated I can use my mother’s car if I can get my license and insurance.

The reason for this letter is to request some considerations from the courts. As I mentioned above I have been promoted to
year around employment at Harry and David however most days my shift starts at around 6 am. The buses don’t start running
till 6am and I have been unable to find a reliable transportation to work so it is making it almost impossible to get the hours I
need to provide for myself and take care of my responsibilities. I have to get my Drivers license released so I can get to and
from Work. I believe my fines with Eagle Point Court was around $500 when first assessed against me but with interest it has
grown to what is now $950 plus dollars even with the payments I’ve made. I have spoken to a friend and with their help I can
come up with $450 to get my license released for reinstatement if it can be worked out with the courts. I would then be able to
work the hours it is going to take to manage. I know it is not the entire amount but hope the courts can and will work with me. I
have spoken with Southern Oregon Credit (Mandy) and she indicated it was a decision only you can make. Again I am working
to do all the right things to continue to become a good standing member of society. I am very proud of what I have
accomplished thus far but certainly have a long way to go to work my way out of the last 10 years.

If you would take the time to contact my Probation officer (Nick Reiten 541-774-4903) you will find I have and am doing what I
need to do to take care of my responsibilities. I need to work and with my past I am blessed to have a good job however not
being able to secure transportation my employer cannot give me the hours I need to take care of the responsibilities I have.
Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Ellen Sinclair
