Statement from Michael Bernard Taylor, Jr.: Call for Transparency, Constitutional Accountability, and Peaceful Resolution
My name is Michael Bernard Taylor, Jr., and I am calling for a **peaceful and lawful resolution** to a legal process that has repeatedly violated my constitutional rights. I am not evading justice — I am resisting a system that has denied me equal protection, due process, and the ability to participate meaningfully in my defense.
I have filed a **civil rights lawsuit under 42 U.S.C. § 1983** for egregious violations of my constitutional rights and am seeking immediate attention to three reasonable and necessary conditions to protect both my liberty and the integrity of the legal system.
### 1. **Verification of Competency Evaluation Authorization**
I request that the court **produce and verify the original court order and corresponding PACE form** authorizing the Penal Code § 730 competency evaluation conducted by Dr. Pietro D’Ingillo. To date, no such order has been confirmed. If this evaluation was conducted without proper judicial authorization, it constitutes a fraudulent act under Penal Code § 115 and a direct violation of due process. The legitimacy of my case cannot be restored without first confirming whether this critical step was lawful.
### 2. **Proof of Waiver for Disclosed Privileged Communications**
I request that the court **produce documentation proving that I knowingly and voluntarily waived my attorney-client privilege** before private communications between me and my court-appointed counsel were shared with the evaluating doctor. These privileged exchanges were used to assess my competency — including deeply personal, constitutionally protected beliefs. If no such waiver exists, then this disclosure was unlawful and must be treated as a violation of my Sixth Amendment rights, warranting the suppression of any findings based on that information.
### 3. **Immunity from Arrest While Seeking Peaceful Resolution**
I am requesting **temporary immunity from arrest** while I continue to pursue legal remedies, cooperate with the judicial process, and advocate for my rights. I am not refusing to face the court — I am refusing to do so under unlawful and prejudicial conditions. I have complied with the process for over three years, and the majority of my missed court dates occurred while I was in custody, not at liberty.

### **Call to Action**
I call on the public, the media, civil rights organizations, and legal advocates to support this demand for accountability, transparency, and constitutional compliance. I am not asking for special treatment — I am asking that **the law be followed** and that a system entrusted with justice operate within its legal bounds.
The prosecutor cannot demand my participation in a system that ignores its own rules. A lawful trial requires lawful procedures — not hidden evaluations, unauthorized disclosures, and manipulated findings.
If the justice system truly believes in the Constitution, then it must prove it by honoring its guarantees — to me, and to every American.
Let us resolve this peacefully, fairly, and lawfully.
Michael Bernard Taylor, Jr.
