UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT OF WASHINGTON DC
PETITIONER/ EDGAR HARRISet,al...
V.
RESPONDENT/ SANDRA DURHAM/ S&J HOLDINGS et,al...
Petitioners are adding this information because it was just mailed to us before we
mailed the certiorari. Chad Shaffer sent this letter confirming what the
plaintiffs/Petitioners said in a statement of facts that the Durham's are at fault
and we did have probable cause and merits and jurisdiction for the judge to hear
this case. Instead of violating our due process the judge didn't take in
consideration that then there was a previous letter from Chad Shaffer explaining the
violations on the Durham's house located at 316 north ken., and there were three at
that time, the first letter from Chad Shaffer, house violation, gas leak problem,
and now the fourth overall with a deadline of October 3 2025 and the Durham's will
need permits to tear down and contact the city which is what the first letter from
Chad Shaffer explaining what the Durham's needed to do to fix their property. As you
see the Durham's ignored the fact of contacting someone at the city, Sandra Durham
lies to the police 911 call to 316 n ken ave because Sandra let her electrician guy
and a unknown lady (picks enclosed as evidence), live in the home at 316 n ken ave.
And been living there since we had to move out of the residence. We drove by late at
night and took pictures (in evidence) of the two electrician and unknown women's
cars parked and plants hanging outside that we didn't leave. There was a dumpster
on Durham's behalf and none of our belongings from the house was put in that
dumpster except the broken wood that was illegally removed without the permission of
obtaining permits either to tear down or to rebuild. Per the evidence (pics) Sandra
Durham allowed the two trespassers live in the house and the letters enclosed States
that in both letters, ( the Durham need to make contact with the city and she has
not and is not going to follow the policies given strictly to her because the
property is a nuisance and dangerous to ours and anybody else in the proximity of
that dwelling. The latest letter from Chad Shaffer shows that Durham has violated.
(3) "Nuisance", an activity or condition created, performed, maintained, or
permitted to exist on private property that constitutes a code or ordinance
violation, whether or not the property has been cited by the city or county in which
the property is located; or, if the property is in a deteriorated condition, due to
neglect or failure to reasonably maintain, abandonment, failure to repair after a
fire, flood, or some other deterioration of the property, or there is clutter on the
property such as abandoned automobiles, appliances, or similar objects; or, with
respect to commercial, industrial, and vacant property, if the activity or condition
on the property encourages, promotes, or substantially contributes to unlawful
activity within three hundred feet of the property; or if any activity or condition:
(a) Diminishes the value of the neighboring property; or
(b)
Is injurious to the public health, safety, security, or welfare of
neighboring residents or businesses; or
(c) Impairs the reasonable use or peaceful enjoyment of other property in the
neighborhood.
Housing nuisance laws, like Missouri's, make property owners liable for conditions
or activities on their property that endanger public health, safety, or welfare,
often involving drug-related activity, repeated criminal behavior, or neglect of the
property itself. These violations are typically handled at the municipal level, such
as through a city's code of ordinances, and can result in fines, legal action, or
the property being deemed a criminal nuisance.
_3naltles
and
Owner Responsibility:
Property owners are often held responsible for abating these nuisances after
receiving a notice.
Municipal Enforcement:
Cities have ordinances that define and address housing nuisances, and property
owners can be charged with permitting or maintaining a nuisance under these laws.
RSMo 82.1025-82.1029: with these types of violations the plaintiffs are asking the
courts to please read. Same as the trial de novo in the municipal court,
The trial court erred in hearingthe trial de novo because the case was transferred
to the western district for the trial de novo. In the municipal court the
Petitioners here (Harris family) were defendants/respondents and the ZJudge
Poppen,and judge carrier, inappropriately barred defendants, from asserting there
affirmative defense nor on the court date did any Durham family members or the
attorney Douglas a Carter showed and the Harris had to wait,l. Until the court room
was empty cause no show and 2. The Harris family waited 31/2 hours for a no show and
for the judge carrier to make several attempts 15 to 30 min to try to get someone to
represent the Durham family. The judge in the western district didn't hear the case
or read it. If they had read it all the violations would matter at this point, but
if the judges are allowing this then this is why so many tenants like us face false
evictions.
The Petitioners ask the court to consider all facts in this case and rule in the
Petitioners favor due to neglect, inhumane living, rodent infestation, electrical
faulty wiring,
counterclaim based on the implied warranty of habitability in that Missouri
law does not require tenants to pay withheld rent into the court in custodia legis.
But the Harris family paid till the end of their lease, with proper notices given to
the landlords.
MO. CONST, art. I, § 14.
King v. Moorehead, 495 S.W.2d 65 (1973)
Detling v. Edelbrock, 671 S.W.2d 265 (1984
This Court now has the opportunity to protect all tenants, specifically those
struggling to make ends meet every day, by ensuring equal access to the courts
and ensuring the implied warranty of habitability is able to serve its critical
purpose. And all the judges didn't make this happen for the Harris family in this
case, from the judicial 31st circuit court to the 8th circuit appeals court violated
this due process.
tcIus
Petitioners urge the 8th circuit court of appeals be remanded to make their decision
to the Court, and to remand the decision of the Missouri Court of the western
District 8th circuit in reversing their decision TO GRANT the petitioner what they
asked for in each court for the relief of $ 750.Billion dollars from each defendant
at fault, for the pain and suffering, mental anguish that the petitioners had to
endure for a whole year, only to try to obtain a win of eviction for the Durham's
wrong doing. Based on a forma pauperis being denied. (No case law ) And judge
Harpool answered for the respondents before the respondents (Durham) could answer. .
(Plaintiffs assert their disabled social security benefits letters to the courts,
plaintiffs (Harris) from raising their affirmative defense and counterclaim
of a breach of the implied warranty of habitability. Overall the Durham's dropped
their case with prejudice on august 1, 2025 in the 31st circuit court on Boonville
street in Springfield, Missouri.

CASE NUMBER: 6:25-CV-03002
HARRIS et al...
V.
DURHAM et ab
original court date: January 3rd, 2025
End Date: January 14th, 2025
Other Cases Involved: Sandra Durham v. Edgar Harris Case Number: 2431-AC10191
Case filed December 31st, 2024,
Counter Claim Filed January 24th, 202
Case was Heard February 6th, 2025
OPENING BREIF
Sandra, James, Larry, and jerry Durham all committed and promised the house would be
fixed upon our move in because our previous home was ruined due to sewage damage to
our previous home. It's been 9 months and no progress, or any work has been done. James
Durham oversaw collecting the Harris family rent that was due on the 15th of the month on
a fixed income of social security. James Durham, who is Sandra and Jerry Durham’s
grandson, and Larry Durham is James Durham’s father. On November25 ourutilities were
shutoff and about 7pm a city utilities technician came to turn our lights back on and when
the technician came inside to check ourfurnace, hefound a gasviolation and faulty wiring.
The Harris family immediately contacted and sent a picture of the violation to Sandra
Durham and James Durham because that is who we were dealing with at this time. James
Durham cameto the Harris resident on November 30 2024 to finally bring a toilet that was
supposed to be put in upon move in May 15th 2024 and brought a gun to the Harris home
and jacked it before he came in and put a 40 Calibur Black handgun inthe back of his pants
under his shirt. Sandra Durham was instructed to have a licensed HVAC come and fix the
problem in 10 days. Sandra did not comply, instead she sent herothergrandson to pop off
the red tag the city put on and not to be taken off unless fixed. Instead, Jerry Durham and
Sandra Durham thought it would be a good idea to turn ourfurnace on illegally and risk a
safety Hazzard of everyone including miles radius of explosion because of gas and faulty
wiring. James Durham was collecting the Harris rent money for Sandra Durham and stole
her money and tried to evict us. Doc enclosed) we had receipts. Larry Durham came and
tried to evict us again leaving a past due rent on our door trying to finish what his son James
Durham started "eviction” Ever since we won, we believe that Larry Durham who said
before he electronically uses his mom (Sandra Durham's signature. Sandra knows my
name is spelled with one I she has a sister name spelled this way per Sandra in our
conversation when we first met. Larry can’t understand how the Harris family beat James
Durham in court, and that his oldest son stole from his grandmother. I have Larry Durham
on disk stating James Durham has done this to other tenants and those tena nts were
evicted because they had no receipts, Larry Durham also stated James Durham is not
capable of doing anything right and he has a drug problem (per Larry Durham on audio. We
have been getting numerous letters of retaliation that we have to get out by May 15th
because they are selling the house by that date. With less than 60 days' notice to move.
Sandra knows were disabled Larry and James Durham does not.
STATEMENT OF WHAT WE WANT THE COURT TO DO
We are asking the court to review the Durham v. Edgar Harris case for judgement order in
favor of the defendants, who are the defendants and won but was denied ourcounter
claim on no grounds of law is to why our counter claim was denied, with all evidence
provided. We are asking that you consider reviewing the judge's ruling and overturn Judge
Kristen E. Poppin (Associate Circuit Court Judge) Ruling dismissing our counter claim.
We askthe court to allow Due Process for this case to be heard in the 8th circuit of appeals
because Plaintiffs 14th amendment was violated on both cases. Judge Douglas Harpool
violated due process by not following Rules 37.01 and
Rule 26(a) requires a party to disclose the identity of any person who may be
used at trial to present evidence under Federal Rules of Evidence 702, 703, or.
705. This rule allows parties to obtain discovery regarding any nonprivileged
matter relevant to their claims or defenses, considering the needs of the case
and other factors. Specifically, it requires the production of documents and
information that will be used to support claims or defenses before the
issuance of a discovery request. Both Judges have Breached the Judicial Ethics of
law. We are Requesting transcripts from Circuit Court of Greene County,
Missouri for case number 2431-ACO1019. We also ask that because we are
indigent, we ask that the court transcript fee be granted at the Governments
expense please.

Honorable Judge of the Court
Supreme Court of Missouri

Missouri 65101
Re: (Rulingon) Harris V. Sandra Durham
Case Number: 6-25-cv-03002 (Federal Court, Western District 8th Circuit) Filed January 3rd,
2025 (Honorable Judge M. Harpool) dismissed on the 14th of January 2025
Case Number: 2431-ACO 10191 (Filed Jan. 30th December 2025 (Circuit Court Division 24)
(Dismissed counterclaim for the Defendant’s) February 6,2025 (Honorable Kirsten E.
Poppen)
The Purpose of this letter is to provide additional information or perspective that may be
relevant to the judge’s decision-making process.
Dear Honorable Judge’s
RETALIATION:
We are Edgar and Michele Harris; we are both disabled and do not work anymore. We have
contacted the landlord several time through out the year about the repairs that were
supposed to be done before we moved in at 316 N ken Ave Springfield mo. 65802. Since the
court date on February 6,2025, for nonpayment of rent, the Harris Family Proved that their
rent had been paid infullforthe months in question, but our counter claim was denied by
the judge Kirsten E. Poppen. (Proven with receipts to the court.) On Feb. 25th Tuesday 2025
about 8 O’clock in the morning we were awaken by the Springfield Police Department
Looking for Paul Dean (who is a relative of the Durham family) on a warrant for his arrest.
The police told the Harris that they were not listed as residence living here, the police said
Paul Dean and Patricia Durham’s Name is on this residence as residence and the Harris are
not. The police asked if we knew where her was after that, so we told the police try the
landlord and gave the police the address to our landlord since we don’t officially live here.
Later that night On Feb. 25 Tuesday 2025, Larry Durham Came to our resident about 615
pm, in a red dodge pickup truck and posted a past due notice on our front door as though
we were late on rent. The Harris family tried to call Larry Durham back while he was on his
way back to his Pickup truck and he ran, jumped in his truck and left. So immediately after
that I texted Sandra Durham and told her I was texting her because I didn’t want her to be
blindsided again, (Sandra Durham’s Grandson, James Durham Has a drug problem and
Grandma tried to give him a job and he stole from her.) (Tenants Rent Money, some were
already evicted by the Durham family because they had no receipts). Wednesday at 10:15
am I get a text from Sandra Durham Asking if it would be alright to send someone over to
assess the house from repairs to be done at our residence. WE agreed and the someone
That Sandra Durham Sent over was her son Larry Durham. Later I get anothertext at
1:10pm Saying someone will be over tomorrow by noon. Larry Durham showed up Friday in
his red pickup truck and sat in your driveway without getting out, for about 25 min until
another person pulled up. James Durham is Larry Durham oldest son and upon his visit
Larry Durham kept repeatedly asking how we (Harris family) got the judge to rule in our
favor. We repeatedly told him receipts. Larry Durham didn’t come to fix anything at this
house, he only came to keep asking about how his son has a drug habit and how did we
beat them in court and repeatedly saying his family didn’t get any money from the Harris
family and in the next breath Larry states how his son James Durham can’t do anything
right. On Sunday March 2,2025, Edgar Harris and I were opening the curtains in the living
room and in front of our house was a man slumped over in a red dodge pickup truck looking
like they were on the phone or sleep because it was about 530 am and when we opened the
front door the truck took off. The Harris Family is asking the court to look at this case and
see the evidence is more than enough to prove we are clearly being harassed by the
Durham family. The Durhams can’t swallow the pill of loss in court by the Harris fam ily. The
Durham family is sitting in front of our residence and driving by our house, and it scares our
family because we don’t know what to think when someone just can’t stomach their oldest
child has stolen from their grandparents and him. Especially when Dad (Larry Durham)
finds out in court that James Durham brought a gun to the Harris house to collect rent.
There is a usb drive to backup all allegations from Larry's conversation at the Harris
resident. On March 3rd-2025' Michele Harris received a friend request on Facebook from
Sandra Durham which is scary compared to how she is handling the situation sending her
son and no work being done at this point we fear for our lives we don’t know what this
family will do.
rent had been paid in fullforthe months in question, but our counter claim was denied by

The Plaintiffs Forma Pauperis is authorized in federal courts by 28 U.S.C. 1915 which means the
federal court of western district southern division in Springfield Missouri has Jurisdiction to hear the
case and when a case is transferred to another case with merit and still has a open court date that
didn't close out in the lower court causing the Plaintiffs Double Jeopardy (McElrath v. Georgia
(2024).
Barvick, 15 Kan. L. Rev., supra at 539 Adkins v. E.l. DuPont De Nemours & Co., 335 U.S. 33,1, 339,
93 L. Ed. 43, 69 S. Ct. 85 (1948),
The United States Supreme Court said:
We cannot agree with the court below that one must be absolutely destitute to enjoy the benefit of
the statute. We think an affidavit is sufficient which states that one cannot because of this poverty
"pay or give security for the costs ... and still be able to provide" himself and dependents "with the
necessities of life." To say that no persons are entitled to the statute's benefits until they have sworn
to contribute to payment of costs, the last dollar they have or can get, and thus make themselves
and their dependents wholly destitute, would be to construe the statute in a way that would throw its
beneficiaries into the category of public charges.
[3] See Barvick, 15 Kan. L. Rev., supra at 539. He says, speaking of the poor in general: "[A
proposed] program should educate the poor regarding existing laws, provide, through lawyers,
representation and counseling where needed, and take steps to remedy injustice where the law and
its administration have treated the poor unjustly. As one of the causes of poverty may be the social
relationship of the poor to the rest of the community, these relationships should be examined and
when necessary, steps should be taken to change them.
In Adkins v. E.l. DuPont de Nemours & Co., 335 U.S, 331, 339, 93 L. Ed. 43, 69 S. Ct. 85 (1948), the
United States Supreme Court said:
We cannot agree with the court below that one must be absolutely destitute to enjoy the benefit of
the statute. We think an affidavit is sufficient which states that one cannot because of this poverty
"pay or give security for the costs ... and still be able to provide" himself and dependents "with the
necessities of life." To say that no persons are entitled to the statute’s benefits until they have sworn
to contribute to payment of costs, the last dollar they have or can get, and thus make themselves
and their dependents wholly destitute, would be to construe the statute in a way that would throw its
beneficiaries into the category of public charges.
Judge Harpool has shown and proven that he should have recused himself (Process
Clause of the Constitution, making recusal a requirement to ensure fairness.) (Caperton v.
Massey (2009) Trump V. Casa Ruling) knowing about a previous case (6:25-cv-03002)
and mentioned it in the new case with new evidence showing that the Durhams has
breached their Lease contract, had two major violations dealing with a gas leak never
fixed and a dangerous building sign put on our house, and tried to evict the Plaintiffs. The
Plaintiff Edgar Harris also has injuries sustained on the property as well, (see medical
records.) (Landlord negligence is a landlord's failure to fulfill their legal duty to provide a
safe, habitable property, leading to tenant harm, such as injuries from unsafe conditions
like broken stairs or inadequate security, which the Plaintiffs clearly has proven in the
lower courts by Sandra Durham's own Omission on court transcripts on case
(2431-AC10191) from December 31, 2024 filing in the 31st judicial Circuit Court .The
clerks at the western district court didn’t allow the Plaintiffs to turn in the evidence in the
western district southern division court when the application for Forma Pauperis was
presented to the clerk and the Plaintiffs say they have never had a court not take our
evidence when turning in our Forma Pauperis. This case was also transferred to the
western district court and printed on the docket and paperwork turned in to the court
clerks. (Clerk spoliation" refers to the loss, destruction, or alteration of evidence by a court
clerk that could be relevant to a legal case.)
.
the eighth circuit also acted under the color of law by accepting our papers of Forma Pauperis,
j
stamping all the paperwork on July 25, 2025, including the complaints on the judges, Harpool
and Judge Poppen, that is enclosed in this statement for evidence. The paperwork was then
put on Susan Bendlers desk according to the other clerk Crystal (last name unknown) Crystal
then advised the Plaintiffs to mail back the paperwork and the return receipts so she can
see that our applications had been received at an earlier date of July 25th 2025. So the Plaintiffs
mailed the forms that Crystal asked to mail back to the eighth circuit, the clerk named and
Anthony Wells signed the receipts, Susan Bendler received the paperwork again and then
forwarded the application back to the Western District Court for a appeal to be filed even
after the plaintiffs explained to the eighth circuit clerk that the Judge is not going to hear this case
but the clerk sent the application anyway, to the western district court southern division.The Western
Division Denied the forma pauperis once again by Judge Harpool, even tho it was granted on the
transfer case to judge harpool’s court. Judge Harpool denied due process by not allowing the case to
be heard or even let the defendant respond to the forma paupers date that was due on 08/22/2025
but Judge harpool denied the forma pauperis on 08/13/2025 without the defendant answering the
court or responding to a lawsuit being filed against them. So the case was suppose to back to the
8th circuit according to the clerk Beth that says she is the only clerk with that name and refusing to
give her last name and refusing to allow the plaintiffs to speak to susan bender or crystal on
08/21/2025, and stated that after the appeal in the western district court, the western district is then
suppose to forward it back to the 8th circuit appeals court but had not received the transfer as of
08/21/2025 from the time the appeal was denied on 08/13/2025. Nothing was said in the order about
the trial De Novo, or if the case is dismissed or even if the plaintiffs did have the money the judge is
still violating due process by not offering the plaintiffs the actual financial burden of how much it
would cost in th order judgement. In judge harpools order he didnt even write any case laws as to
why the forma pauperis was denied, Judge harpool said “The Court again finds Plaintiffs Application
to Proceed Without Paying Fees or Costs establishes Plaintiffs are unable to pay filing fees and
court costs associated with bringing their appeal. However, the Court also finds Plaintiffs’ filing does
not set forth a basis for granting leave to appeal IFP. As stated in the Court’s previous Order,
Plaintiffs fail to state a claim that can proceed in this Court and the Court finds no allegations that
state a claim, nonetheless a claim that would have federal jurisdiction.) if we could pay (which we
cant we are disabled but. Susan Bendler had previously written letters to the Plaintiffs that is
currently enclosed in this statement as evidence. Susan Bendler has also responded in the letters
addressed to the Plaintiffs that she will not be prosecuting any judges for any misconduct in their
office of the 8th circuit court of appeals. Susan Bendler has Violating due process means breaking
the legal obligation under the Fifth Amendment and the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S.
Constitution, which state that no one can be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process
of law. This violation can involve specific procedural violations, such as a lack of notice or
opportunity to be heard, or substantive violations, where a fundamental right is denied.
A certified mail with return receipt was received by a clerk of the court by the name of (Anthony
Wells) on 07/29/2025, and on 08/08/2025. Susan E. Bindler is the current Clerk of Court for the
United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. She was appointed to this role, effective March
10, 2025, filling the vacancy left by the retirement of Michael E. Gans.
The Clerk of Court's office for the Eighth Circuit is located in the Thomas F. Eagleton United States
Courthouse in St. Louis, Missouri. There is also a satellite office in St. Paul, Minnesota at the Warren
E. Burger Federal Building and Courthouse.
As Clerk of Court, Ms. Bindler's duties include a range of responsibilities focused on managing the
court's business, such as:
1. Case management and the processing of appeals.
2. Maintaining court records and managing the court calendars.
3. Long-range strategic planning and policy development
4. Budget oversight and human resources management.
A. Role of Court Clerks: Court clerks play a crucial role in managing court documents
and exhibits, including ensuring they are properly filed, stored, and accessible.
B. Duty to Preserve Evidence: This responsibility includes a duty to preserve evidence
that may be relevant to potential or ongoing litigation.
Spoliation as a Breach of Duty: When a court clerk's actions (intentional or negligent) lead to the loss
or destruction of such evidence, it constitutes spoliation.
Once you have different departments like the eighth circuit and the western district and the 31st
Judicial circuit courts acting under the color of law, This concept is crucial in civil rights cases, where
government officials (like police officers) or private individuals acting with state authority abuse their
power to deprive others of constitutional rights. Violations can lead to criminal penalties under
federal statutes like 18 U.S.C, § 242 and civil liability.
Section 242 of Title 18 makes it a crime for a person acting under color of any law to willfully deprive
a person of a right or privilege protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States.
For the purpose of Section 242, acts under "color of law" include acts not only done by federal, state,
or local officials within their lawful authority, but also acts done beyond the bounds of that official's
lawful authority, if the acts are done while the official is purporting to or pretending to act in the
performance of his/her official duties. Persons acting under color of law within the meaning of this
statute include police officers, prisons guards and other law enforcement officials, as well as judges,
care providers in public health facilities, and others who are acting as public officials. It is not
necessary that the crime be motivated by animus toward the race, color, religion, sex, handicap,
familial status or national origin of the victim.
TITLE 18, U.S.C., SECTION 242
Whoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any
person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District to the deprivation of any
rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States,
... shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if bodily injury
results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include the use, attempted
use, or threatened use of a dangerous weapon, explosives, or fire, shall be fined under this title or
imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation
of this section or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse,
or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, shall be fined under this title,
or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death.
Following up with coercion on how the western district court would put on the top of the paper work
In bold letters to the eighth circuit saying “WARNING"
UNITED STATES V. PINKERTON 1946 (SUPREME COURT) act. Id., 328 U.S. at 647, 66 S.Ct. at
1184
The rule of Pinkerton does service where the conspiracy is one to commit offenses of the character
described in the substantive charges. Nye & Nissen, 93 LEd. 2d 919
(The Court's Ruling: The admission of evidence of similar crimes was relevant to show a consistent
pattern of conduct.)(United States Supreme Court)
upon all the allegations submitted by the plaintiffs to be true, the plaintiffs also have a USB drive with
conversations from Larry Durham stating his son James Durham has stolen money from tenant
before and the family covered it up but still evicted the tenants, and that is what the Durhams have
tried to do the the Harris family by even losing in court to the Harris family retaliation over and over
again because the Durhams didn't want to put the money into the house as promised to the Harris
family Sandra Durham made deals with the Harris family and told her other family and workers
something different, like when the Harris and James Durham went to court James was under oath
when the 2000 dollars of our rent money came up missing for the month of November when the
utility company shut off our electric illegally November 25th 2024, and our gas was shut off by city
utilities because of a gas leak and red tagged it. When they came to turn our electricity back on and
the Durhams all were aware and on December 24th 2024 our utilities with payment was shut off
again. The Durhams filed an eviction on December 31 2025, my rent according to the evidence
presented in the evidence and Sandra Durham's written word and under oath statement in
court,because Sandra Durham didn't prorate the rent on the 15th of the month when the Harris
moved in, Sandra Durham agreed for the Harris to pay on the first of the month because of social
security pay days,
Conclusion
The petition for a Writ of Certiorari should be granted." "For the aforementioned reasons, the
Petitioners respectfully ask the Court to overturn the decision of the United States Court of Appeals
for the Second Circuit, as well as to overturn the decision of the United States Courts Western
District Southern Division and the decisions made in the 31st judicial circuit court. After all the
showing up in the courts and being violated to the fullest of there of, with humiliation, mental
anguish.
The Plaintiffs with respect are asking the court to grant our damages in the amount of
$750,000,000,000 Billion Dollars and overturn all lower court decisions.
Respectfully,

The onus is on landlords to maintain a safe living environment for tenants,
guests, and visitors. Landlords should clean up spills in common areas, fix
broken elements, and take proactive measures to prevent accidents. The
specific legal duties of landlords can vary from state to state, but these are
generally the key responsibilities of landlords:
Duty to maintain common areas: Landlords are obligated to keep common
areas such as lobbies, hallways, stairwells, and parking lots safe. Regular
inspections and prompt maintenance are essential to discover and remove
any slip-and-fall hazards.
Duty to warn of known hazards: When landlords become aware of potential
dangers that cannot be immediately removed or remedied, they must
communicate a warning about the hazards to tenants and visitors.
Duty to make timely repairs: Landlords are generally expected to address
hazardous conditions promptly. This includes fixing broken steps, repairing
broken surfaces, and addressing potential dangers within a reasonable time
frame.
When is your landlord liable for injuries in a slip-and-fall Injury?
Common areas versus rental upits
Landlords usually bear responsibility for injuries occurring in common areas
shared by multiple tenants, such
hallways, stairwells, and parking lots.
However, for injuries sustained within specific rental units, the extent of
landlord liability can vary based on the facts relating to the cause of the injury,
as well provisions of applicable lease agreements and local law.
Open and obvious hazards
For a fall resulting from an apparent and easily noticeable hazard, tenants
may share responsibility for injuries. However, landlords can remain liable if
they neglect to address well-known dangers or fail to take reasonable steps to
mitigate them, even if the hazard is open and obvious.
Actual versus constructive notice
Determining landlord liability often hinges on the concept of notice—whether
the landlord had knowledge of a hazard or should have known about it through
regular inspections and maintenance. If a landlord is aware of a dangerous
condition, they have actual notice. However, constructive notice comes into
play when the landlord should have known about the hazard through routine
care and property management.
How to prove landlord negligence
To succeed in a claim against a negligent landlord, you must prove that: (1) the
landlord owed you a duty of care; (2) the landlord breached that duty; (3) that
the breach caused you to slip and fall; and (4) that the fall caused you injury.

Pinkerton liability
The Pinkerton liability rule was pronounced by the Supreme Court of the United States in
in 1946- Walter and Daniel Pinkerton were brothers who were charged
with one count of conspiracy and ten substantive counts under the Internal Revenue Code. A jury
found each of them guilty of the conspiracy and several of the substantive counts. The main issue
arose from the fact that there was no evidence to show that Daniel Pinkerton participated directly in
the commission of the substantive offenses, although there was evidence showing that these
substantive offenses were committed by Walter Pinkerton in furtherance of the unlawful agreement or
conspiracy existing between the brothers.^
The Pinkerton liability rule
The question was submitted to the jury on the theoiy that each brother could be found guilty of the
substantive offenses if it were found that, at the time those offenses were committed, the brothers
were parties to an unlawful conspiracy and that the substantive offenses were committed in
furtherance of it. Daniel Pinkerton was not indicted as an aider or abettor, nor was his case submitted
to the jury on that theory.
Daniel argued United States v. Sall^~~- in support of his contention that participation in the conspiracy
was not in itself enough to sustain a conviction for the substantive offenses, even though they were
committed in furtherance of the conspiracy. Sall held that, in addition to evidence that the offense was
committed in furtherance of the conspiracy, evidence of direct participation in the commission of the
substantive offense or other evidence from which participation might fairly be inferred was necessary.
The Supreme Court took a different view. It noted that the facts showed a continuous conspiracy with
no evidence that Daniel had attempted to withdraw from it. Therefore, he continued to offend. So long
as the partnership in crime continues, the partners act for each other in carrying it forward, and an
2Y®rt act of one partner may be the act of all without any new agreement specifically directed to that
act. The criminal intent to do an illegal act by one of the conspirators in furtherance of the unlawful
project is established by the formation of the conspiracy. Each conspirator instigates the commission
of the crime. The unlawful agreement contemplated what was done in the substantive acts, and the
substantive crimes were performed in the execution of the enterprise.-^
Similar to the rule of aiding and abetting, the overt acts of one partner in a conspiracy are attributable
to all partners. The Supreme Court concluded that if an overt act that is an essential ingredient in a
conspiracy can be supplied by one conspirator, then the same or other acts in furtherance of the
conspiracy should be attributable to the others for the purpose of holding them responsible for the
substantive offense(s).

8/24/24,1:56 PM
Pinkerton liability - Wikipedia
^Jhe SuPreme Court noted that a different result would arise if the substantive offense committed by
one of the conspirators was not done in furtherance of the conspiracy, did not fall within the scope of
the unlawful project, or was merely a part of the ramifications of the plan that could not be reasonably
foreseen as a necessary or natural consequence of the unlawful agreement.
The Pinkerton liability rule does service where the conspiracy is one to commit offenses of the
character described in the substantive charges.^! Aiding and abetting has a broader application. It
makes a defendant a principal when he consciously shares in any criminal act, whether or not there is
a conspiracy. If a conspiracy is also charged, it makes no difference, so far as aiding and abetting is
concerned, whether the substantive offense is done pursuant to the conspiracy. Pinkerton is narrow in
its scope. Aiding and abetting rests on a broader base. It states a rule of criminal responsibility for acts
that one assists another in performing. The fact that a particular case might conceivably be submitted
to the juiy on either theory is irrelevant. It is sufficient if the proof adduced and the basis on which it
was submitted were sufficient to support the verdicts.

The Premises require certain repairs that are the Landlord's responsibility; namely: On may 18th
the thermostat went out, no air on November 25,2024 heat not working, no heat on the
premises, thermostat changed with no heat access, after city utilities gave you 10 days from
November 25th to fix it with a licensed HVAC person, because the technician said the electric in
the house needs to be changed, and the furnace in the front of the house needs its own breaker
switch, this is why the house is popping electricity not space heaters cause of no heat, no one
came to fix this problem till this day 1/4/2025, broken windows, still not fixed since move in,
bathroom tub area still not fixed since move in. backyard still has trash since we moved in.(
concrete rocks mounted to the shower wall exposed for someone to get hurt, rocks still not
finished in kitchen or taken down, refrigerator never got replaced, that i have text from JC saying
he would get us one. Then you told him not to. The hole under the stove leading to under the
house exposed, to rodents and trash never cleaned from under the house and back deck, we have
loose wires hanging no fixtures put in, back wooden deck still not fixed, even when Edgar harris
fell through the porch, it was still not fixed, there's a car jack; holding up, the back porch deck
and the neighbor Kathy Tozer, said the jack belonged to her and she let Paul use it a year ago

O
EDGAR SIMM HARRIS, et al.
Plaintiffs,
vs.
Case No. 25-cv-03002-MDH
SANDRA DURHAM, et al.,
Defendants.
ORDER
Before the Court is Plaintiffs1 Application for Leave to File Action Without Payment. fDoc.
1). For the reasons stated herein, Plaintiffs' application is denied.
“Under 28 U.S.C. $ 1915. the decision whether to grant or deny in forma pauperis status is
within the sound discretion of the trial court.” Cross v. Geo. Motors Corp., 721 F.2d 1152. 1157
(8th Cir. 1983). The Court may authorize the commencement of a suit without prepayment of fees
if the Plaintiffs can show they are unable to pay the costs of the lawsuit. However, in addition, the
Court is also required to conduct a review of Plaintiffs complaint to be filed in forma pauperis.
See 28JJ.S.C. § 1915feK2') (“Notwithstanding any filing fee, or any portion thereof, that may have
been paid, the court shall dismiss the case at any time if the court determines that
(B) the
action or appeal (i) is frivolous or malicious; (ii) fails to state a claim on which relief may be
granted; or (iii) seeks monetary relief against a defendant who is immune from such relief.”).
A plaintiff must plead facts that show more than a mere speculation or possibility that the
defendant acted unlawfully. BellAtl. Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 555 (2007). While the Court
accepts the complaint’s factual allegations as true, it is not required to accept the plaintiff’s legal
conclusions. Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556U,S,662, 671?, 129 S, Ct, 1937. 1949-173 L. Ed. 2d 868 (2009).
“Threadbare recitals of the elements of a cause of action, supported by mere conclusory statements.

do not suffice." Id. The counts assessment of whether the complaint states a plausible claim for
relief is a ‘context-specific tad; that requires the reviewing court to draw on its judicial experience
and common sense.” Id. at 679.
With regard to a pro se complaint the Court must liberally construe the allegations and "pro
se litigants are held to a lesser pleading standard than other panics." Whitson v. Slone County Jail,
602 E3d 920.922 n. 1 (8th Cir. 2010) (citation omitted). However, a Plaintiff must allege sufficient
facts to support his claims. Stone v. Harry, 364F.3d912. 914 (8th Cir. 2004); citing, Dunn v. White,
880 F.2d 1188. 1197 (10th Cir. 1989) (regarding a pro se plaintiff, "we will not supply additional
facts, nor will we construct a legal theory for plaintiff that assumes facts that have not been
pleaded.”); and Cunningham v. Ray, 648 F.2d 1185. 1186 (8th Cir. 1981) ("pro se litigants must
set [a claim] forth in a manner which, taking the pleaded facts as true, states a claim as a matter of
law.”): see also, Johnson v. Nixon, 367 F, App’x 715 (8th Cir. 2010); citing, Frey v. City of
Herculaneum, 44 F.3d 667. 672 (8th Cir. 1995) (complaint fell short of meeting even liberal
standard for notice pleading where it was entirely conclusory and gave no idea what acts individual
defendants were accused of that could result in liability).
Plaintiffs appear to meet the financial requirements for IFP. However, construing Plaintiffs’
pro se Complaint liberally, Plaintiffs fail to state a cause of action against Defendants that can
proceed in this Court. Plaintiffs’ allegations raise issues concerning a dispute with their landlords
over rent payments and partial payments and the condition of the property. Plaintiffs have filed 46
pages setting forth their complaints. While Plaintiffs make one reference to “racial profiling” and
cite the Fair Housing Act, they fail to allege any facts that support either of these references or the
basis for a federal claim. The Court has considered the allegations in a light most favorable to
Case 6:25-cv-03002-MDH

Plaintiffs and finds that the Complaint does not provide a basis for federal jurisdiction. As a result,
this Court does not have jurisdiction over Plaintiffs' claims.
Wherefore, Plaintiffs’ Application to proceed 1FP is hereby DENIED and Plaintiffs’ case
is dismissed without prejudice. The Clerk of the Court is directed to mail a copy of this Order to
Plaintiffs.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
