Plaintiffs vs Denton Central Appraisal District
Lawsuit Update May 8, 2024

 Letter discussing DCAD's criminal activity, their immunity claim, and the ramifications
From Mitchell Vexler, May 8, 2024

 

Let’s be clear. If the Commissioners Court of Denton County is running cover for Denton Central Appraisal District and it’s criminal activity, and if the Judge rules that DCAD has immunity and also rules that DCAD does not have to adhere to the law in the future, then the Judge and Commissioners Court (Judge Eads) have made the State of Texas violate the 1st, 5th, 14th, 16th and Article VI of the U.S. Constitution.  It would also mean that the Judge would have chosen criminals over the Citizens of Denton County.

 

So, now you would ask… what evidence do you have?

On
www.mockingbirdproperties.com/dcad you will find volumes of evidence including:


  1. Denton County Commissioners Court recording or partial transcript from August 31, 2021 - Judge Eads protects Michelle French when told the 2021 Tax Roll was fraudulently certified and all data is corrupt.
  2. Transcript from Court hearing on May 2, 2024
  3. Cheat Sheet of Broken Laws (2 page quick list or 10 page review)
  4. Chief Appraiser's board meeting discussion on “manipulating 60,000 properties”
  5. Board Member Charles Stafford to CA Don Spencer, “you are the masters at guessing”
  6. Presentation Charts for Court, 18-page PDF with 300+ links to all evidence
  7. IAAO Gap Analysis Report on DCAD & our summary notes of report – Your tax dollars paid $90,000+ for this IAAO report, you might want to read it.
  8. Home Affordability 2023
  9. May 3, 2024 Presentation recorded at a Restore the Republic & Denton County GOP Round Table Discussion.

 

Obviously, it is clear from the May 2nd transcript that defense council does not understand what the case is about and could care less. It is also clear that the Judge had her mind made up before Plaintiffs walked in the court.  How could this be? We have our suspicions and time will tell. Regardless, the net result is that the Judge punted because she did not want the case in her Court for whatever reason, which is unfortunate because no Court has the right to deny Citizens access to the Court.

 

What they don’t expect is that Plaintiffs will win on appeal at the 5th Circuit, and as a result of determining if a fair trial is possible in Denton County, further anticipate filing Federal charges in multiple suits and possibly expanding to Class Action status. The evidence is the evidence, and it is overwhelming, and as you will see, is irrefutable. It simply needs to be heard in a legitimate Court. Trying to punt a case to save themselves will be met with a full-throated exposure of who did it, how, why, and tying all the co-conspirators into the conspiracy to defraud the public.  Speaking of which, isn’t it interesting that LISD is having financial difficulties and shortfalls totaling $15mm.

 

Examine the evidence for yourself and you will realize that the gross misconduct of government officials, many of whom signed an Oath to protect and defend the Constitutions of the State of Texas and the United States of America, has amounted to a continuous operation to defraud since 2016. 

 

Each successive year of violating Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice, Texas Property Tax Code, and the Texas Constitution, only compounds their criminal liability.  Isn’t it peculiar that those who do not want to hear the truth, make their living off stolen money by DCAD over valuing and over taxing properties in violation of the very laws under which DCAD and it’s co-conspirators must operate within. 

 

Their efforts to drive the increase of this vast bureaucratic cabal to expand with more employees and more buildings via the recently hired IAAO consultants that produced a report which in reality turns into an admission of guilt, wreaks of desperation, to cover up their crimes.

 

What they fail to understand is that stealing is not a partisan issue. Stealing is a crime that affects everybody. 37% of the households in Denton County can’t afford the home they are living in and there is nothing to stop DCAD from arbitrary and capriciously raising taxes not based in law or fact. This is exactly what they have done since 2016. They just make it up and Judge Eads who has knowledge as defined in law, chose to do nothing.  I suggest that everybody read the legal Cheat Sheet of Broken Laws.

 

What sort of person would want their own friends and family to suffer at the hands of DCAD’s non-stop unlawful increase in property taxes that are created by guessing, in order to advance their own agenda and superimpose their ego onto those who are suffering at the hands of these criminals. This is sociopathic behavior. They seem ready to wreck Denton County to save themselves.  They created the theft of over $1.3 Billion in property taxes which is the equivalent of $67 Billion in over valuation, and havoc that will be created in the bonds and mortgages will be massive.  Thievery has a real price on society.  A degenerate campaign to use the vested attorneys to twist and cheat the law at the cost of the law’s legitimacy.  If it turns out there is no law to protect both sides, then there is no reason to pay real estate tax meaning they should be careful what they wish for.

 

I would be the first person to apologize if I were wrong. Their machinations (destroying evidence, destroying tapes, destroying property records, prohibiting the public from obtaining property records, lying to ARB panels, etc. etc.) have been stupendously amateurish and instead of solving a problem, they intend to bury it. However, the evidence exists, and they have no defense which is why they are trying to keep this out of Court. Sorry Charlie, we’re going to Court and will expose every last one of the criminals and co-conspirators.

 

Why do these quasi-government officials, government officials, feel compelled since 2016 to hitch their identity to this train wreck of abuse of discretion and abuse of power? They have made themselves ridiculous fools by claiming “we reduced your taxes” yet the property values and payments went up. Yes, as the evidence shows, they have been caught. 

 

We are handing this evidence to all real estate taxpayers to use and tie to their individual circumstances. Aside from Plaintiff’s Suit(s), if thousands of lawsuits are filed against DCAD, it would be one method to break DCAD and In the words of Attorney General Ken Paxton, "A reviewing court shall hold unlawful and set aside agency action, finding, and conclusions found to be…arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, or otherwise not in accordance with law,” U.S.C. 706(2)(A). Attorney General Ken Paxton Plaintiff V. Department of State December 2023… another method. An Unlawful Government Agency (such as DCAD) must be enjoined… meaning shut it down and along with it, the Denton County fiefdom.

Your equity is being stripped while you sleep. CADs, School Districts, State Comptroller, Attorney General, Governor, Legislators all collude in promoting propaganda with taxpayer funds to make you to believe “it is for the children” & that there's nothing you can do about it, all while they commit crimes against you.

January 1, 2025
Property Tax is illegal when there are no longer any enforced laws protecting rights of real estate taxpaying Citizens, when equity is stripped by compound cumulative over-taxation, when CADs & taxing entities' budgets & debts determine values on which to tax, when property tax system has become irretrievably corrupt..

Following the last article that I wrote on Homestead and Circuit Breakers now comes more proof of fraud on a mass scale. I asked in one of the videos a very specific question to Mr. Don Spencer, the Chief Appraiser in the Denton County Central Appraisal District. Knowing, based on irrefutable evidence as found at www.mockingbirdproperties.com/dcad, that the real estate tax laws are being violated not just in Texas but in any County or Province that claims to use Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice, the question was, Mr. Spencer, what is to stop you from raising the real estate tax to infinity in 2025? The answer, by virtue of violating USPAP, is nothing. (See our violations reviewed pdf document.)

My career was built on thought, as a result of thorough analysis with numbers at the forefront. Although it sounds tough, yet often stated by me, is that I don’t give a damn what someone has to say, but very much I care what can be proven. People / Media talk, yet the majority of the time, have nothing to say which in itself becomes divisive. Knowledge vs Ignorance. Repetition of ignorance is ignorance raised to the power two.

In reviewing the multitude of issues that we discovered or encountered with property tax appraisals and the protest/appeal value process in the Denton Central Appraisal District, one cannot help but stop and say, how is this sustainable? Can property owners in other appraisal districts across Texas, or across the U.S., survive this equity stripping attack?

Have you wondered why prices are so out of control? Governments never reduce consumer prices because they benefit from inflation, dissolving their political spending commitments in a constantly depreciated currency. Inflation is the perfect hidden tax. The government makes the currency less valuable by issuing more units of fiat money, partially dissolves its debt in real terms, collects more taxes, and presents itself as the solution to rising prices with subsidies in an increasingly worthless currency. That is why socialism and hyperinflation are one in the same. This is why elections matter. This is why math matters.

The depth of the property tax issues results in Equity Stripping. Property Value Fraud does not discriminate between party lines.
