To Whomever Concerned at Aiken Family Court,
	I was summoned to Aiken in 2012 by my sons’ paternal grandmother, I came with “bells on”, I “ruffled feathers”, and they heard me “roar”! I was cited for not having a permit from the City of Aiken for my public activities. If I am summoned again due to my recent activity (sending letters out into the Aiken community) I will NOT come quietly. These are my “footprints in the sand.”  My humblest request to you Your-Honors, is that if the elizabeth legare Singleton (the paternal grandmother) come to the courts praying for relief again, would you take into consideration the time I will need to obtain proper permits for my planned activity in the area (passing out flyers, megaphone messages, park/mall assembly, and maybe even a one-woman parade!)  Presently, I have no intentions of coming to Aiken, my schedule here in Philadelphia is quite full; however, if I am summoned I will indeed present myself in the sleepy-little-town of Aiken… but I am NOT coming there to sleep! Please do not be so hasty to set an immediate date for my appearance. I wish to have time to go about my family’s business with proper permits.
	
	Enclosed are copies of letters I have written and sent out across the nation and into the Aiken Community. I have the sensitivities of a mother with two teenage sons and I still care about the tears my off-spring cry. I will do nothing to upset their stability; however, it is getting late in the day and the sun is going down. Soon those young men will be the authors of the tears they cry, they will no longer be dependents…I find it disheartening and less than patriotic for the strong arm of the law to find fault with an ex-mother who does not embrace dysfunction (me) but the law will allow the enemy (the earth-thing potentially infecting my posterity) to insert itself into my existence (by summons) whenever the mood suits it. No surrender-no retreat…what does one do when the laws of the land offer no protection from the wiles of one who thrives on dysfunction?  I feel my constitutional rights to secure the blessings of liberty for myself and my posterity are threatened and my ‘free’ is quite vulnerable by its (the grandmother’s) antics yet there is no protection for me because I am not a ‘victim’ and it (the elizabeth) is a self-proclaimed victim. It (the grandmother) breeds calamity! It is the author of its victimization. In my opinion it should NOT be allowed to summon me to a calming poetry reading;  incontestably, it should not be allowed to draw me into its presence regarding something as emotionally charged as a summons addressing its ‘fears’! (SMH! IJS!)

Sincerely,
Deidre Singleton
