LTISD Info

I received a letter from Susan Bohn on March 27, 2008 telling me that my public information requests had exceeded the 36 hour time limit recently established by the Texas Legislature (HB2564) and coded into Texas Government Code §552.275.

It was rather obvious that Susan was wrong, again! Only after a letter from my attorney questioning her time accounting does she provide a letter stating that she was not wrong (lawyers never will admit their mistakes or incompetence). She said that the district “does not wish to enter into a legal dispute with you regarding this issue (legalese for “we will loose “and “we are wrong, you win”).

Image that, the litigation happy LTISD does not want another lawsuit!

Susan went back and used real math instead of her Wiji Board and happened upon the fact that she was wrong by 12 hours and 41 minutes. That meant that I had used less than 24 hours of whatever Susan used to calculate “district time.” Apparently the district does not have records to back up their claims of how much time it takes to answer each request, or so I have been told when I asked for these records. So just how do they know how much time it takes to answer each request?

Perhaps, Susan was not wrong but simply making application of Einstein’s Theory of Relativity. Einstein said that time is relative, depending on your frame of reference. I guess that the LTISD’s frame of reference is different than the time reference used by the rest of us?

I just have a couple of questions:

1. When does Susan Bohn’s incompetence turn into negligence?
2. Just how many times does Susan Bohn have to “mess up” before the district takes notice? Susan has a long line of such “exemplary” performances while employed at the district. Remember the Eminent Domain fiasco?

Perhaps we should only expect this from a lawyer who is only making over $130,000/year after only 6 years of experience. Not too bad since I bet that Mayo Davidson, with so much more experience (44 years), probably wishes he made $130k/year (then he might pay taxes). But then again, Susan has not been found guilty of a “violation of the Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct” like Mayo.

Wait, there are still some more ‘Bohn’s Blunders’ to read about, stay tuned.
