Ruby's attorney Phil Burleson files this supplemental transcript to the writ of habeas corpus providing the timeline for the multiple attempts he has made with the Dallas County District Clerk's office to obtain complete and accurate Statement of Facts from court reporter L. B. Bailey, Jr. which contain testimony and exhibits from related hearings held September 9-10, 1965. These documents are needed for Mr. Burleson's appeal filed with the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals in Austin, Texas, with the goal of releasing Ruby from jail or at least getting him additional medical and mental health treatment. - Jan Masterson, Collections Cataloguer","The Museum recorded an oral history with the late defense attorney Phil Burleson. His lengthy interview was videotaped in April 1995, less than two months before his death. - Stephen Fagin, Curator","Judge Joe B. Brown's infamous book on the Jack Ruby trial, referenced in this document, was never published during the judge's lifetime. Joe B. Brown died of a heart attack on February 20, 1968. Decades later, his son, the late Judge Joe B. Brown, Jr. -- himself a district court judge in Dallas from 1988 to 1996 -- worked with psychologist and author Dr. Diane Holloway to edit his father's unpublished manuscript. The end result, coupled with Warren Commission testimony and new psychological commentary, was published as Dallas and the Jack Ruby Trial: Memoir of Judge Joe B.
