DOCTOR LISA CLAYTON'S REPORT TO JUDGE GREEN
Response to FOIA postmarked June 6th and file stamped BSSH on June 8, 2005)
Keep in mind as you read Dr. Lisa Clayton's diagnosis of Sharif's mental condition that Sharif had been diagnosed and put on the proper medication for his health way before being arrested and brought to the Dallas County Jail. Also bear in mind that once a person arrives at most every jail or prison in the U.S., his own medications are taken away or substituted with whatever the jail deems best, no matter what the prisoner's personal physician has prescribed. When "Dr." Lisa Clayton examined Sharif (for what he claims was 5 or 10 minutes and what she claims was 45 minutes), he was in a situation he felt was unlawful and that he did not deserve. According to the laws of the State of Texas and the U.S. and Texas Constitutions, Sharif had every right to feel the way he did.

Honorable Karen Greene
282nd Judicial District Court
Frank Crowley Criminal Court Building
133 N. Industrial
Dallas, Texas 75207RE: Lakeith Amir-Sharif
Cause #: F02-73127Dear Judge Greene,
I examined Mr. Lakeith Amir-Sharif on 4/07/05 for approximately forty-five minutes. The evaluation took place at the Frank Crowley Courthouse in a holdover area.
In my opinion Mr. Lakeith Amir-Sharif does currently suffer from a mental illness, most probably Bipolar Disorder, Manic Type rendering him incompetent to stand trial on the charges pending against him. However, I do believe that Mr. Amir-Sharif will regain his competency in the foreseeable future.
My full report is attached.
DR. LISA CLAYTON'S MIS-DIAGNOSIS
The following psychiatric evaluation by Dr. Clayton was received at Big Springs State Hospital on June 18, 2005 in response to Sharif's public records request. Sharif had never seen this document prior to that date. Pretty good work for an incompetent, don't you agree?
PSYCHIATRIC EVALUATION
PATIENT: Lakeith Amir-Sharif
CAUSE #: F02-737127CONSENT TO EXAMINATION
Before the evaluation the purpose was explained to Mr. Amir-Sharif. He was told that I would be making a report of the examination to the court and I might be required to testify. He seemed to understand the explanation and agreed to the psychiatric examination.
EXAMINATION
Mr. Lakeith Amir-Sharif was examined by me at the Frank Crowley Courthouse in a holdover area on 4/7/05. The evaluation interview took about forty-five minutes. Mr. Amir-Sharif's UTMB psychiatric records were also examined. *** Note, there were no such records because Sharif had never been seen by anyone from the jail's mental health department.
CONCLUSION
Mr. Amir-Sharif is severely mentally ill, he has Bipolar Disorder, Manic Type. He currently does not possess sufficient ability to comprehend the proceedings against him. He is not able to assist his attorney in the development of a defense with a reasonable degree of rational understanding. Mr. Amir-Sharif will regain his competency in the foreseeable future.
HISTORY
Mr. Amir-Sharif was a very poor historian. He refused to say where he was born, but he did admit he was born and grew up in the United States. Mr. Amir-Sharif reported he had been in the Navy and he received an Honorable Discharge.
Mr. Amir-Sharif stated he had been married one time and he refused to say if he had any children. Mr. Amir-Sharif reported he has worked in Florida for various attorneys and he has a website for offenders. Mr. Amir-Sharif reported he has a girlfriend, but his attorneys and the court refuses to acknowledge his relationship. Mr. Amir-Sharif reports he was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder and he has been on medication for his mental illness from an MHMR Clinic.
MENTAL STATUS EXAMINATION
Mr. Amir-Sharif had fair hygiene and was mildly disheveled in his dress. He was alert and oriented to person, month and year. His affect was labile and angry. His mood was angry. He got very agitated as I tried to talk with him about his court case and his attorney.
Mr. Amir-Sharif had loose association with paranoid delusions. He had no insight into his mental illness. Mr. Amir-Sharif does not have a rational understanding of the charges against him, nor does he understand the possible penalties or various duties of courtroom personnel in a trial process.

LKC/cjc
Dr. Clayton seemed to go above and beyond the call of duty in her apparent goal to get Sharif committed, making sure to shed the worst possible light on him in the process. Why? What was Dr. Clayton motive for all her falsified statements to the court? It's undeniable that Sharif's public defender Mr.Grett was in on all of this. What was Mr. Grett's motives, and who else was knowingly in on these unlawful activities? Why did judges Campos and Greene accept these reports from Dr. Clayton without them being notarized as required by law? There are many unanswered questions surrounding Sharif's commitment. A federal civil rights lawsuit has since been filed by Sharif regarding this incident.
