FIRST AMENDED PETITION FOR TRIAL DE NOVO FROM ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION

        COMES NOW the petitioner, Lee Allen Martin, pursuant to the Honorable Judge Garrett's Order dated 10-5-98 in case #CV398-699CC, and does appeal the Director of Revenue's final decision of August 7, 1998 pursuant to Chapter 536.110.2 of the RSMo and 302.311 RSMo requesting Judicial Review for the following reasons, pursuant to RSMo 536.140:

                1) The decision of the state of Missouri in the drivers license of Lee Allen Martin is in violation to the Constitution of the United States pursuant to the 5 Th Amendment's Double Jeopardy Clause as applied to the State in the 14 Th Amendment, U.S. v. Bell 90 F 3rd 318, State of Missouri v. Mayo 915 SW 2nd 758, Mason v Director of Revenue 929 SW 2nd 266, U.S. v Imngren 914 F Supp. 1326, reviewable pursuant to 536.140.2(1) RSMo.
                2)The final decision of the State of Missouri in this case is in contrast to the RSMo specifically 302.010 (3) which defines "conviction" as "and the date of final judgment affirming the conviction shall be the date determining the beginning of any license suspension or revocation under section 302.304." The State and this court is very aware that the final judgment affirming the decision of this trial court was issued on 2-9-98 by the Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern Division in Appeal # 21211-1, and if the Director of Revenue wants to start another revocation of a drivers license that has not been applied for, or issued, it must start on 2-9-98; and therefore, end on 2-9-99, as allowed pursuant to 536.140.2 (2), (4), (6), and (7) RSMo.
                3) The State of Missouri can not revoke what it has not issued. No privilege has been applied for and therefore the State having not granted privilege to drive to Mr. Martin is in no way in the capacity to revoke a privilege that does not exist, as allowed pursuant to 536.140.2 (5), (6), (7) RSMo.
                4) The State of Missouri has held the defendant's driving privilege revoked since August 13, 1992 and has never reinstated driving privilege of Mr. Martin. To hold a non existent license up to multiple revocations stemming from the same incident is a violation of double jeopardy clause, as allowed pursuant to 536.140.2 (1) RSMo.
                 5) The Director of Revenue at no time notified the petitioner of any action on a non-existent driver's license in violation to RSMo 536.067 and therefore reviewable pursuant to RSMo 536.140.2(5).

Wherefore, the petitioner notes that the reviewing court is limited in any action of judicial review of a final administrative decision pursuant 536.140.3,4 and so noted the petitioner asks that the Court;

1. Find director's final decision be unconstitutional and beyond the scope of the statutes of the State of Missouri; and,

2. Order the agency to reinstate the petitoner's driving privilege; or,

3. In alternative, pursuant to RSMo 536.140.5 the Court modify the fianl decision fo the Director of Revenue to 2-9-99 as a reinstatement date; and grant any other such relief that this court may feel it is constitutionally empowered to do.

Respectfully Submitted,
 

Lee Allen Martin
