Honorable Justices of the Fifteenth Court of Appeals

RE: Cause No. 15-25-00142-CV – Battaile v. Texas Elections Division, et al. –

Clarification Regarding Number of Defendants

To the Honorable Justices of the Fifteenth Court of Appeals:

This is a direct request for correction. Your October 16, 2025 Order says I “had

sued approximately forty-two defendants.” That is false. Flat-out false.

The record and my operative filings show far fewer. The exaggerated number

appears to come from someone else’s careless wording — and it was simply

parroted into your Order. That kind of mistake may look small, but it goes to the

very credibility of appellate review. When a newly established “elite” court repeats

bad facts from one side’s paper, it tells citizens that precision and fairness are

optional. This reflects a breakdown in careful review inconsistent with the
standards of justice the Fifteenth Court was created to exemplify.

This Court is still within its plenary authority under Texas Rule of Appellate

Procedure 19.1. You have full power to fix it — right now — without motions,

without delay, without excuses. I’m asking you to do that.

Please correct the record to remove the “forty-two defendants” line and reflect the

actual number in my pleadings. Accuracy matters. I expect the amended order or a

notation to that effect to be filed promptly. Thank you.

Respectfully,

/s/ Robert Edward Battaile
