Mr. Willard, President Twyman, and all Bar staff copied here:
The cure window established in my May 11 letter closed today, May 14, 2026, at 5:00 PM ET. Twenty-eight items were identified. Four violations were documented. Zero items have been cured.
**In the Past 24 Hours, the Bar Has Misled Me Five Times** [5-row table: phantom meeting offer, meeting cancellation, "reviewing" with no output, "tomorrow" promise, silence on the day]
**The Scoreboard** [10-row table showing May 4-14 positions of Shiptenko (ADA applies), Burgess (engaged), NeSmith (ADA denied, phantom meeting, delays, silence), Morrison/Willard/Nash/Twyman (zero/read receipts only)]
**The CC-Stripping Pattern** [6 emails where State ADA Coordinator stripped from every one]
**The Silence** [7 officials, two engaged, one denied, four silent]
**The Contradiction:** Shiptenko May 13: "The State Bar has approved your accommodation request." NeSmith May 12: "The State Bar is not a public entity subject to the ADA."
[Same 5 leadership questions.]
If the Bar is unable or unwilling to provide a unified written response, I will seek assistance from disability rights advocacy organizations, ADA legal clinics, and media outlets.
[ADA status paragraph and accessibility notice.]
