Gretchen,

I need your legal advice ASAP regarding the court order from Broward County, Florida that is being enforced against me by the East Grand Forks Police Department and their contract lawyer Ronald Galstad, Galstad, Jensen, & McCann.

As you know I was arrested on February 19, 2018 by the EGFPD. One of the conditions of my release from jail was to comply with any domestic abuse or harassment order that may exist.

Below is the language of the Broward County court order from 2011 that is presently in place against me and my publication that was used to arrest me in the middle of the night after I published a You Tube video about the Parkland School shooting and corruption in Broward County, Florida.

Please note the section I highlighted with bold and underline.  

THE RESPONDENT SHALL NOT MAKE ANY DIRECT OR INDIRECT REFERENCE ABOUT THE PETITIONER ON THE INTERNET OR BY USE OF ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION.THE RESPONDENT SHALL REMOVE ALL BOOKS, WRITINGS, VIDEOS, PHOTOS, RECORDINGS, AND/OR MATERIALS CURRENTLY PUBLISHED ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THE PETITIONER FORTWITH.

Can you please guide me:

1. Can I use the name of the aforementioned Petitioner from Broward County when I talk to you on the telephone, considering the telephone is electronic communications?
2. Can I text the name of the aforementioned Petitioner from Broward County if I text you, considering texting is electronic communications?
3. Can I email the name of the aforementioned Petitioner from Broward County if I email you, considering emailing is electronic communications?
4. Can I transfer large files to you using Google Drive if the files contain the name of the aforementioned Petitioner?
5. Can I fax the name of the aforementioned Petitioner from Broward County if I fax you, considering faxing is electronic communications?

On May 4, 2018 I sent a letter to Honorable Paul T. Benshoof, the Chief Judge of the Ninth Minnesota District regarding judicial officers that may not be reporting evidence of child porn and fake adoptions by a fellow attorney as required by Rules of Judicial Conduct. Lt. Rodney Hajicek at the EGFPD telephoned me once and told me I could be arrested if I used the aforementioned Petitioner's name in an email. Is that true? I have him on tape saying it.

Please advise me regarding the Constitutionality of the aforementioned and how we should govern our communications.

If you believe I can legally communicate with you via 'electronic communications' regarding the aforementioned Petitioner from Broward County please provide me a brief (if not extended) explanation supporting your legal opinion.

Maybe we should we use handles and code words and stuff?   lol

Respectfully yours,
