responded to this Court's request made on or about August 24, 2015

      The Respondent(s) have not filed any timely objections

on August 24, 2015 (See # 1)

                                  III.


      The Relator has provided within his Writ of Mandamus his
Constitution rights have been violated and are to this day
continuing to be violated. The right to speedy trial is set
in stone by the forefathers and is upheld upto the highest
Court of    the land.

      This Relator, has a right to have his constitutional rights
upheld and his Petition for Writ of Mandamus to be granted.
                               IV.

                    Memorandum in Support


      The 6th Amendment guarantees that in all criminal
prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy trial,
      This right "attaches" at the time of arrest or Indictment
whichever comes first and, continues until the date of trial.
See: U.S.   -V- Garcia 995 F2d 556, 560 5th Circ 1993.
      The court in Knox -V- State 934 SW 2d 678, 681 , stated
that "8 month ^elay is generally sufficant to trigger Speedy
Trial...claim...

      The court in Barker -V- Wango 407 U.S. 514; 92 S. Ct 2182
set forth a 4 prong analysis to determine a constitutional speedy
trial claim. There is no doubt that the Relator's rights have
been violated and ignored.

                               V.



                          Prayer for Relief


      The Relator, Donald AdkLns,     in pro-se, comes before this
Honorable Court within this Petitioning motion to show why this
court should grant the Relator's Petition for Mandamus without
scrutiny and set forth an "Order" to force the Respondent(s)
to comply and adhere to the mandates set forth by the
Constitution in the Promise of Due Process and a fast and speedy
trial and, dismiss with prejudice all counts held against the
Relator, being so-called: complaint, warrant, indictment -et-cetra,
      It is so prayed!
