This is the third book in the Post-Conviction Relief series. This installment is written to help correct the most basic problem in your case, the way you think. I have encountered hundreds of prisoners who failed to obtain post-conviction relief because they attempt to sound like a lawyer, that is a mistake. The post-conviction relief process is designed to allow prisoners to express themselves plainly without being required to know laws, policies or rules. This book is my effort to set a standard by which a layman can measure their ability to express themselves to a court effectively. This book will teach you how to present motions and petitions that are more pleasing to judges, who, in most cases, want you to have what you deserve under the law. It will teach you how to refine your pleadings by understanding the importance of critical word usage and syllogistic reasoning. You will learn the importance of presenting a clear set of facts as opposed to a theory in law they already know. This book includes a full and accurate copy of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and other resource guidelines and materials. Most importantly, I'm sharing with you what I've learned in over 20 years of education. I also share with you what I've learned from hundreds of hours of experience yet translated into terms anyone can understand. Study this book and you will quickly learn the most important skill taught in any law school, the skill to learn.
About the Author: Kelly P. Riggs has throughout the years led a relatively unremarkable life. He was pleased with his life as a loving father to his children. Until it was redirected by a court operating under the guise of dispensing justice in Birmingham Alabama. His life has always been the product of choices which he learned from over the years. One of which included providing information to the F.B.I. in 2011. When Mr. Riggs reported that a D.E.A. agent was distributing drugs in his community of Birmingham Alabama He himself was harassed and ultimately arrested a year later. Mr. Riggs was offered the opportunity to change his testimony but refused. The United States Chief District judge freely admits that Mr. Riggs has an alibi defense but at sentencing stated that he would be imprisoned because "it was about time he learned to tell the truth". Mr. Riggs began his study of military law in 1986 with aspirations of becoming a J.A.G. lawyer. After over two years of intense correspondence study and hours under the scrutiny of various proctors Mr. Riggs discovered that the prospective oath required to continue was in conflict with his military oath, "...to defend the constitution..." and his own personal moral code. His choice to forego a career as a J.A.G. lawyer lead to an unprecedented career change. Mr. Riggs used the skills he learned in the Army to become a valuable asset in the electrical trade as a leader, problem solver, and teacher. Over the next two decades Mr. Riggs quietly continued his studies to satisfy his own desire to possess an intimate knowledge of the law and provided only limited assistance to those in the practice thereof. In the course of his assistance Mr. Riggs found himself ethically bound to report the corruption of public officials and federal agents, some of which are now under indictment. By May of 2012, Mr. Riggs was charged with a crime he didn't commit by the same Federal district he made his complaint in. See case no. 2:15-cv-8043-KOB, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama. In the beginning of Mr. Riggs' service to his country he vowed to fight for those who couldn't fight for themselves. In this capacity, he here now vows to dedicate the remainder of his life to fight for justice by bringing awareness to the American People through his fiction and non-fiction writing concerning the law, government, and justice.
