On February 20, 2007, Barbara revoked the durable power of attorney she had given to attorney Stephen F. Lanier on April 21, 2006, in Floyd County, Georgia. The revocation was signed and notarized in DeKalb County.

Then, on March 12, Barbara filed a copy of a letter to Lanier, a request for retainer amount and a notice of termination, with the circuit clerk of Cherokee County.

Barbara wrote in the letter that she had employed the Stephen F. Lanier law firm to represent her in the case number DC-2006-438F in Cherokee County, Alabama. The contract was for a $50,000 retainer:

I wish to terminate your employment and ask you to return the retainer as I understand you are demanding an additional $125,000.00 to represent me in the now CC-2006-461 Capital Murder case. I do not have the money to pay you and need the $50,000.00 retainer and the additional $15,000.00 you withdrew from my accounts to afford a defense.

Please send the refund to Barbara Roberts c/o DeKalb County Jail and send all legal documentation to Attorney Rodney Stallings in Centre, Alabama. You may deduct any mailing costs from the refund.

On the same day, Lanier filed a motion to withdraw as Barbara’s attorney of record in the case.
