                                STATEMENT OF CASE



       Appellant, Juan Miguel Mata seeks an appeal, on qrounds that this Protective

Order No- 2714/ is not in accordance to Tex. Fam. Statutes/ Title 4.    Appellant

agreed to this protective order, on insunations of the judge presiding in Dimmit

County Court. The trial court abuses its discretion when it fails to properly

apply the law to the undisputed facts, when it acts arbitrarity or unreasonably/

or when its ruling is based on factual assertions unsupported by the record.

Appellant NO longer AGREES.    Appellant has sought review through properly filed

motions by a third party servicing them to the County Clerks' Office/ as follows

are motions filed/ Motion to Modify, Motion to Quash, Motion to Examine Evidence,

Motion to Object, Motion to Sign Orders, and Motion to Appeal.     The trial court

has acted bias toward the Appellant and has neglected the Honorable Francisco G.

Ponce ministerial duties to rule and make a just determination, so therefore

Appellant desires to enter this appeal pursuant to Tex. Fam. Code § 81.009, for

purposes of this ORDER be review, upon a hearing pursuant to § 85.025(b): Tex.

Fam.   Code.

       Appellant has filed a Writ of Mandamus in these Honorable Court in where

Honorable Francisco G- Ponce voluntary recusal himself, and this Writ of Mandamus

is currently active under Court of Appeal No.    04-15-00214-CV.   Please see files

for    APPENDIXES cross reference to the references   mentioned in this BRIEF.




                                        -6-
                       ANY STATEMENT REGARDING ORAL ARGUMENT




     Appellant objects to oral argument to be permitted.         Protective Order No.

2714 can be clearly and evidently seen that NO family violence was found in the

trial courts1   findings/   upon the State presenting the Application to the Dimmit

County Court.     Evidence can be seen on page 2 of the ORDER/    where the trial

judqe scratched out the markinq      [X] that was presented by the Appellees'

Attorney/   and can be compare to the signing of the presidinq      iudge on page 6 to


page 2 initials.     Please see Appendix   "A"/   Id. pg 2, 6.


     No attachments were made by the Dimmit County Attorney at time of present

ing evidence.     To be more precise/   NO REPORTS and or RECORDS were presented/   to

the trial court from a law enforcement agency to sustain any arqument from the

State/   therefore appellant on evidence that the State and trial court have


judicially neglected the desposition of all motions filed/       and has brought evid

ence to compel Honorable Francisco G.      Ponce on a previous Writ of Mandamus No.


04-15-00214-CV.     Appellants'   confinement impairs the opportunity to be presently


present on any oral argument/     and appellant feels if oral arqument is allowed;


by any electronic communication would not be as effective to present and have

a fair hearinq/ and cross examine any witness.

                                 ISSUE PRESENTED



     Appellee's attorney has Exercise Effect of Lack of Jurisdiction pursuant

to §16-064; Tex. Civ. Prac and Rem.      Appellee is a non-resident of the State

of Texas since May 19/2014/   Please see Appendix "J",    defined as a Sworn Declar

ation to be a resident of the State of Idaho.       Appellees'   attorney entered a


Motion to Extend/   exercising jurisdiction over non-resident on Seotember 16/2014/


and the Honorable Judqe Francisco G.   Ponce exercise conflict of interest by

hearinq this action and siqninq ORDER/   despite that his Son Michael A.      Ponce had


been attorney of record on Appendix "K", also please see Appendix "B".

     Appellee's attorney did not entered evidence as described on Tex. Code of

Crim. P./ Article 5.05/   to support Appelle alleqations filed on a separate


sheet to these application of a protective order.

     Trial Court VIOLATED Tex. Fam. Statutes/      Title 4, where NO Family Violence

was found in the trial courts'   Findings/ and issued an ORDER aqainst the Texas

statutes, so therefore these ORDER is in     VIOLATION to the followinq statutes;

Tex. Fam. Code §81.001,    which clearly states,    " A court SHALL render a Protect

ive Order as provided by Tex. Fam. Code §85.001/ states IF the court FINDS that

Family Violence has Occurred and   is likely to Occur in the future."      Pursuant to


Tex. Fam. Code §82.002/ entitled "Who May File Application."

     Trial Court has judicially neglected all his ministerial duties on not

rendering a desposition on the motions properly filed with the Dimmit Countv


Clerk/   and upon his discretion of issuinq these ORDER,    the coutt has altered the

statutes prescribed within the law.    In accordance to Tex. Fam. Code §85-025(b);

states that   "a person who is subject of a protective order may file a motion not

earlier than the first anniversary of the date on which the ORDER was rendered


requestinq that the court review—".      The trial court has intentionally VIOLATED


Appellants'   constitutional riqhts by not reviewinq these ORDER on properly filed



                                       -8-

      NO service of citation was ever served on ADpelant/    to oroDerlv inform

Aooellant in DUE PROCESS:   14th Amend.; U.S. Constitution of the application

for   a Protective Order or the Extension of the ORDER.     Please see Appendix

"B thru D".

                                    STATEMENT OF FACTS


     Appellant, Juan Miguel Mata/ appeals uoon change of conditions that Appel-

lee NO longer resides in the State of Texas.       Please see Appendix "J", Applicants'

affidavit of residency of the State of Idaho,      filed with Writ of Mandamus # 04-

15-00214'JCV and all foregoing appendixes here in mentioned in these brief.         The

ADDelles' Attorney has exercised Effect of Lack of Jurisdiction pursuant to

§16.064; Tex. Civ. Prac and Rem.        According to Tex Fam. Code § 85.005, states

a protective order expires on the date the ORDER is ordered to expire, please

see Appendix "B" and "C".


     Appellant, Juan Miquel Mata, NO lonqer AGREES to the terms and has reauested

for a review.   Appellant has entered a Motion to Modify with title Motion to

Amend with governing code, pursuant to §87.001; Tex. Fam. Code, on November 3,

2014, Dlease see Appendix "E".       Appellant parent-child relationship has been

affected and is causinq alienation of love that the children would naturally

have for their natural    father.


     Appellant appeals in conjunction to the lack of reports, and records,      in

accordance to Tex. Code of Crim. P.; Article 5.05, to demostrate clear and con

vincing evidence, that evidence was indeed entered to suooort the alleaations

made by the Appellee.     Appellant has filed a Motion to Examine Rvidence in

reference to the allegations presented by Appellee throuqh the attornev of

record.   In this Pro Se pleadinas,     Appellant has reauested these reports and

records to be entered as evidence IF reports and records were made by a Law

Enforcement Agency as described in these statute, describing the events within

these Protective Order.     Appellee stated NO Law Enforcement Reports and Records

were ever entered with the application,      to applv for a protective order.

Appellant would like to examine such evidence to sustain this protective order

on allegations made by appellee,      filed on a separate sheet with the application.


                                          -10-
Appellant has respectfully requested such reports/ but no reports or records

have ever been rendered/ as preponderance of evidence.     A motion has been filed

since November 3/2014, Dlease see Appendix "E" filed in Writ Brief # 04-15-00214-

CV in these Honorable Court.     Appellant filed these motion in an omnibus motion

for the trial court to review and hear all evidence but Honorable Francisco G.

Ponce has refused to hear and review all evidence in his official capacity/ so

therefore Appellant appeals to these Honorable Court to review these ORDER and

OVERTURN the trial courts decision.


     Appellant has entered also Motion to Object on February 10/2015/ pursuant

to §§81.001, 85-001 and §82.002;Tex. Fam. Code, entitled/     "Who May File Applicat

ion," please see appendix "G".     The trial court FINDINGS state "NO Family Viol

ence has occurred or is likely to occur."      Please See Appendix "A" on page 2.

Trial Court upon discretion of his official capacity/ signed the ORDER in

VIOLATION to Texas Family Statutes and Codes described herein.

     Appellant appeals due to the party has filed Motion to Quash on qrounds

that these protective order is in VIOLATION to Texas Family Statutes described

herein, on February 10/2015, and previously had filed a motion on April 14/2015/

see Appendix "I"/   titled/ Motion to Appeal and Motion to Quash.


     Appellant appeals pursuant to Vongontard v- Tippitt (App. 1 Dist. 2004),

137 S.W. 3d 109, in which these protective order is final, appealable due to

it disposes of all parties and issues in these case.

                               SUMMARY OF ARG0B1ENT



    Appellant objects to Protective Order No. 2714 for not being in compliance

to the Texas statues/ the Rules of Procedure are general rules, while statues

are specific; thus* when the two conflict/ the statue trumps the rule. Pena v.

Garza, 61 S.W. 3d 529.   Also for an applicant to be eligible for a protective

order/ under the guidelines of the code annotations and statues/ family violence

has occurred or is likely to occur.    The disposition of this ORDER is in complete

judicial bias from the trial court because it does not follow the statues/ to

whom is entitled to such relief/ and who can apply.    No family violence is found

in the trial courts findings    as defined to^texas Family Section 71.004; as out

lined on page 2 of the ORDER/ so therefore this ORDER should be VOIDED or QUASH.




                                       -12-
                                    ARGUMENTS


      Appellant presents these appeal seeking that ORDER No. 2714 be void on

 arguments and evidence brought by the appellant.    Protective Order is in

 VIOLATION to statutes described in Tex. Pam. § 81.001,    "Entitlement to Protect

 ive Order", §85.001, "Required Findings and Orders", and § 82.002, "Who May File

  Application".   Within these ORDER NO FAMILY VIOLENCE has been found in the Court

 Findings, as stated in the ORDER, page 2, under Subtitle, "FINDINGS", the mark

 [X], the County Attorney presented as Family Violence Occurred; the trial judge

scratched over the mark [X] and placed the presiding judges intials.      Alternat

ively, if ORDER will not be VOID, that the ORDER be modified pursuant to §87.001

 (a); Tex. Fam. Code and natural, biological children of the Appellant be excluded
from the ORDER.


     Appellant presents these appeal because the trial court has maliciously

acted bias to the request of the appellant.     "A party is required to obtain a

ruling on the request, objection or motion.     Tex. R. App. P. 52(a).   Appellant

has properly filed these motions in the County Clerk's Office but Appellant has

not recieved no desposition.   And changed conditions have Occurred.

     In general, an appellate court has jurisdiction to review final and definite

judgements; a final judgement fully disposes of all issues and all parties.

Protective Orders rendered pursuant to family code are final and appealable

orders as long as the orders dispose of all parties and all issues.      Cooke v.

Cooke, 65 S.W. 3d 785 (Tex. App.-Dallas 2001)

     On a challenge to the legal and factual sufficiency of the evidence to sup

port the issuance of a protective order, the Court of Appeals applies the usual

standards of review, examining the evidence to see if there is any evidence to

support the findings, or if the evidence is so weak as to be clearly wrong and

manifestly unjust.   Pena v. Garza, 61 S.W. 3d 529 (Tex. App.-San Antonio 2001)

      The court's objective in interpreting statues is to determine and give full

effect to the legislature's intent.     If a statue is clear and unambiguous on its

face/ statutory construction is not necessary, and the statute's words will be

given their plain and common meaning.     Statues are presumed to have been enacted

by the legislature with complete knowledge of existing law and withreference to

it.   The statutory definition of    "court" and the legislature's    -omission of

"jury" and    "trier of fact" in family code provisions,   providinq that the "court"

SHALL DETERMINE WHETHER FAMILY VIOLENCE OCCURRED AND RENDER A PROTECTIVE ORDER IF


THE "COURT" FINDS FAMILY VIOLENCE,    MAKE CLEAR THAT THE LEGISLATURE INTENDED THAT


COURTS,   NOT JURIES,   HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF MAKING THE FINDINGS NECESSARY FOR


THE ISSUANCE OF A FAMILY VIOLENCE PROTECTIVE ORDER. Williams v. Williams 19

S.W. 3d 544 (Tex.App.-Fbrt Worth 2000).

      Order prohibiting      family member from engaqinq in specified conduct for

period of one year was permanent injunction constitutinq appealable final order

even thouqh it was called a     "protective order"; duration of iniunction did not

depend on any further action by court.      James v. Hubbard, 985 S.W. 2d 516

      General principles of due process dictate that a litiqant has a right to

be heard and that the court must protect that riqht; opportunity to be heard


and present evidence must generally amount to more      than a cursory opportunity

to cross-examine the other party's witnesses. Striedel v.. Striedel 15 S.W. 3d

163 (Tex.App.-Corpus Christi 2000)


      The Fourth Court of Appeals has recently held that a protective order is

one whose "duration does not depend upon further action by the trial court" and,

therefore,   is   "final" for purposes of appelate jurisdiction.     In_r© Cummings,

                                        -14-
     On January 20/2011,    the Court heard the Application for Protective Order

of Maria Elena Mata< applicant-     Upon being in the judges' office and not in

the County Court.    The presiding judge; Honorable Francisco G. Ponce/      issued a

protective ordfifwith NO Family Violence Findings.     The ORDER was signed by the


influence of Honorable Francisco G. Ponce stating that appellant had the right


to hire an attorney but appellant would be wasting his economical resources be

cause it was the judges'   discretion/ discouraging appellant to counsel with an


attorney.    Appellant had NO knowledge that statue stated Family Violence has to

occur or is likely to occur to be entitled to a protective order/ pursuant to

the Texas Family statues/ so therefore appellant was influenced to sign the ORDER.


     On April 10/2015/ Appellant filed a Writ of Mandamus to compel Honorable

Francisco G. Ponce to act on his ministerial duties.         Appellant has properly

filed Motion to Modify on November 3/2014 at 2:55P.M. see Appendix "E", Motion

to Obiect on February 10/2015 please see Appendix     "G"t   Motion to Appeal and


Motion to Quash on April 14/2015 see Appendix "I", Motion to Sign Order and No

tice of Intent on May 15/2015/    please see Appendix"M". The Honorable Judge Fran

cisco G.    Ponce presiding has failed to hear and make a determination with least


possible delay/ on the motions properly filed by a third party.         In between this

motions;    appellant has filed letters requesting   a ruling on this motions/      please

see Appendix "F/H/h".    Appellant filed this letters requesting a ruling on Jan

uary 23/2014/ see Appendix "F";    also Appellant filed a second letter on March


20,2015 at 9:08A.M., see Appendix "H&h"; Appendix "F" was filed at 11:50A.M.;

to respectfully request the Honorable Judge Francisco G. Ponce to hear the mo

tion filed in his court/ by hand delivering this motions by a third party/          and

letters.


     Appellant brings an action on protective order no. 2714/        for review/ and

for this Honorable Court to render an equitable determination/        in where appellant



                                       —15-
shows entitlement in equity and in law.         A clear failure by the trial court to

analyze or apply the law correctly will constitue an abuse of discretion and

may result in appellate reversal.


     On November 3/2014 at 2:55P.M.,     appellant challenqed the State to the legal

and factual sufficiency/    of evidence to support the issuance of a protective

order.     Appellant respectfully requested the County Attorney to provide the

local Law Enforcement Agency incident reports and records to substantial-evidence

rule to hold the allegations of appellee and the courts decision of these protect

ive order.    Please see Appendix "E",   page 6/    "Motion to Examine Evidence".

     Appellant files these appeal/ pursuant to that its the Courts' objective to

interpret statutes to determine and give full effect to the legislatures' intent.

The statute's words will be given their plain and common meaning.         Within the

statute,    in order for a protective order to be issue,    family violence has occur

red and is likely to occur in the future,       in these case NO family violence has

occurred and is likely to occur as defined in the family code statute.         The

statute states the court shall determine whether family violence occurred and

render a protective order if the court finds family violence,        in trial no. 2714

and upon the execution of these ORDER/     the trial courts'   determination are within

the FINDINGS on page 2 of the ORDER/     No family violence occurred/ or is likely to

occur in the future.    Please see Appendix "A".

     One year anniversary has elapsed as stated in the statute and accordinq to

Texas statute, a protective order of one year is a permanent iniunction which

constitues of beinq final and appealable order,       even thouqh it is called a

"protective order".    Therefore,   the Fourth Court of Appeals has jurisdiction to

review and give full meaninq to-examine evidence to OVERTURN these ORDER-

     Appellant respectfully request to be heard/       as to the trial court in Dimmit




                                         -16-
County has VIOLATED the Appellants'    DUE PROCESS RIGHTS to be heard upon properly


filed motions/ and changed conditions have occurred and taken placed/       since the

ORDER was SIGNED/EXECUTED.


     This protective order/    upon the negligence of the Dimmit County Court/        to

rule on motions properlv filed/    does not depend on the duration/ upon further

action by the trial court/    so therefore/   is "final"   for purposes of appelate


jurisdiction.


     Appellant appeals the trial courts decision/      based on a Final Divorce Decree

please see Appendix "K" attach to the Writ of Mandamus No. 04-15-00214-CV.            This


■judgement rendered in the 365th District Court supersedes this protective order/

and in reference to this protective order and divorce decree/ they are conflict-


ina orders/ affecting the parent and child relationship in the best interest of

the appellants'   natural and biological children.
