TO THE COURT:
I, PAMELA BARNETT, declare as follows:
1. I am the pro se Plaintiff in this action.
2. Request hearing June 8. 2010 to determine whether votes should be counted for
Damon Dunn for Secretary of State June 8,2010. The Court has been duly
notified that Damon Dunn has done the following actions:
1 a. Dunn left Block 16 blank on his voter registration form on March 13, 2009 where
2 according to election code he is to fill out his prior registration information even
though Florida has confirmed he was registered as a Democrat there;
3
b. Contacted Florida Election Officials to try to erase his voter registration record in
4
July 10, 2009. This action confirms Damon Dunn’s knowledge of his prior
5
voter registration (CEC 18203, 18500);
6
c. Instead of correcting his voter registration form to comply with the NVRA and
7 HAVA State to State notification of change after speaking with the Florida election
8 officials in July, Dunn then goes on to signing his Candidate Intention Statement
9 November 13, 2009 with a perjured and effectively void Voter Registration Form
10 on file. Dunn at this point can no longer use the excuse that he didn’t know that
19 State under Statute for CAL ELEC CODE 201, and does not meet the requirement to be a
Registered Republican for either the 3 or 12 month requirements based on his perjured void
20
voter registration on file under CEC 8001(a)2. However he was also last registered as a
21
Democrat and would need 12 months as a registered Republican under the law.
22
4. This is a vitally important matter before the court, because if the court allows
23
the count of the votes to occur for an ineligible candidate, Damon Dunn, that did the
24 preceding actions, will the court be complicit in breaking Cal. Elec. CODE 18500 and 18501
25 codes? This would put a dark cloud on the honorable court and the integrity of the elections
26 in California, and would cause major disenfranchisement of a large group of voters which
27 would then open up the doors to many lawsuits against the State of California. You can’t
28
put a price on the breach of trust of the California electorate.

EX PARTE REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION OF HEARING
1 5. Plaintiff’s Ex Parte request for a hearing June 2, 2010 was erroroneously denied
2 by Judge Shelleyanne W.L. Chang, and subsequently, so was Plaintiff’s request for a
hearing June 4, 2010 to decide whether to remove Damon Dunn from the ballot and/or not

have votes counted for him as a Secretary of State candidate.

6. Judge Chang stated in the Order “No explanation is given for why plaintiff waited
5
several months after the candidate filed his requisite papers before seeking an OST for an

Order to Show Cause RE: Injunctive Relief.”; to which Plaintiff contends is contrary to the
7 facts that:

10 fraudulent, on or about April 13 when Plaintiff received a copy of the letter from
19 c. Plaintiff, a pro se party did research how to get an expedited hearing on removing
Damon Dunn from the ballot. While Plaintiff attended an important matter in New

21
Shirley Freemen, assigned to file plaintiff’s proposed Order to Show Cause (OSC)
22
for an expedited hearing in conformance with any such request for injunctive
23
relief, but the OSC was rejected by the Clerk of the Court 4 days before plaintiff
24 re-filed the Proposed Order to Show Cause for Injunctive Relief May 21, 2010
25 requesting a expedited hearing to have Damon Dunn removed from the ballot and
26 not have any votes be counted for him.
27 d. Plaintiff was then denied two more times by Court officials despite Plaintiff

EX PARTE REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION OF HEARING
h. These statements affirm my due diligence in trying to get a hearing on removing
Damon Dunn from the ballot as he is not qualified and properly following court
rules of procedure regarding noticing of the parties.
7. This Application is based on the following information attached:
the Order to Show Cause for Injunctive Relief which I originally attempted to have
filed under Article Ill but had been rejected by the Clerk of the Court on May 14. 2010 and
then again with the Ex Parte Hearing June 2, 2008 (see Exhibit 2);
The June 2,2010, erroneous Order regarding Ex Parte Hearing by Judge
Shelleyanne W.L. Chang (see Exhibit 3);
On June 2, 2010, the Clerk of the Court received Plaintiff's declaration with four
additional pieces of evidence (see Exhibit 4): (i) a letter from the Secretary of State dated
May 12, 2010 requesting additional evidence of Mr. Dunn's intentional malice; (ii.) The
Newspaper Article published by Hermosa Beach Patch showing a picture of Damon Dunn
being sewed with the Summons and Complaint in this case and wherein the Article refers I
Mr. Dunn's Democratic Party background; (iii.) a Notarized certification of the Apirl 13,2011
letter from the Duval County Registrar; and (iv.) a copy of the March 10,2010 certified
Declaration of Candidacy wherein on page 2 Mr. Dunn affirms that he has "no prior
registration" before the Orange County Registrar of Voters.
That the additional evidence of fraud shown as Exhibit 4 was filed June 2 about 2
p.m. before supposed the Ex Parte Hearing was not docketed by the Clerk even though a
document filed after plaintiff's on June 2 by a Defendant was docketed by the Clerk, raises
question of unequal treatment of Plaintiff by the Court.
I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California that the
foregoing is true and correct as of June 4, 2010, at Sacramento, California.
