A Military Flag

And to further confirm and understand the significance of what I have told you, you need to
understand the fringe on the United States flag. Read the following.
First the appearance of our flag is defined in Title 4 sec. 1. U.S.C.. "The flag of the United
States shall be thirteen horizontal stripes, alternate red and white; and the union of the flag
shall be forty-eight stars, white in a blue field." (my note - of course when new states are
admitted, new stars are added.)
A foot note was added on page 1113 of the same section which says: "Placing of fringe on
the national flag, the dimensions of the flag, and arrangement of the stars are matters of
detail not controlled by statute, but within the discretion of the President as commander-inchief of the Army and Navy." 1925, 34 Op.Atty.Gen. 483.
The president, as military commander, can add a yellow fringe to our flag. When would this
be done? During time of war. Why? A flag with a fringe is an ensign, a military flag. Read
the following.
"Pursuant to U.S.C. Chapter 1, 2, and 3; Executive Order No. 10834, August 21, 1959, 24
F.R. 6865, a military flag is a flag that resembles the regular flag of the United States,
except that it has a YELLOW FRINGE, bordered on three sides. The President of the United
states designates this deviation from the regular flag, by executive order, and in his capacity
as COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF of the Armed forces."
From the National Encyclopedia, Volume 4:
"Flag, an emblem of a nation; usually made of cloth and flown from a staff. From a military
standpoint flags are of two general classes, those flown from stationary masts over army
posts, and those carried by troops in formation. The former are referred to by the general
name flags. The latter are called colors when carried by dismounted troops. Colors and
Standards are more nearly square than flags and are made of silk with a knotted Fringe of
Yellow on three sides...use of the flag. The most general and appropriate use of the flag is
as a symbol of authority and power."
"...The agency of the master is devolved upon him by the law of the flag. The same law that
confers his authority ascertains its limits, and the flag at the mast-head is notice to all the
world of the extent of such power to bind the owners or freighters by his act. The foreigner
who deals with this agent has notice of that law, and, if he be bound by it, there is not
injustice. His notice is the national flag which is hoisted on every sea and under which the
master sails into every port, and every circumstance that connects him with the vessel
isolates that vessel in the eyes of the world, and demonstrates his relation to the owners
and freighters as their agent for a specific purpose and with power well defined under the
national maritime law." Bouvier's Law Dictionary, 1914.
Don't be thrown by the fact they are talking about the sea, and that it doesn't apply to land.
Admiralty law came on land in 1845 with the Act of 1845 by Congress. Next a court case:
"Pursuant to the "Law of the Flag", a military flag does result in jurisdictional implication
when flown. The Plaintiff cites the following: "Under what is called international law, the law

of the flag, a shipowner who sends his vessel into a foreign port gives notice by his flag to
all who enter into contracts with the shipmaster that he intends the law of the flag to
regulate those contracts with the shipmaster that he either submit to its operation or not
contract with him or his agent at all." Ruhstrat v. People, 57 N.E. 41, 45, 185 ILL. 133, 49
LRA 181, 76 AM.
I have had debates with folks that take great issue with what I have said, they dogmatically
say the constitution is the law and the government is outside the law. I wish they were
right, but they fail to see or understand that the American people have been conquered,
unknowingly, but conquered all the same. That is why a judge will tell you not to bring the
Constitution into his court, or a law dictionary, because he is the law, not the Constitution.
You have only to read the previous Senates report on National Emergency, to understand
the Constitution and our Constitutional form of government no longer exists.
Further Evidence
Social Security
I fail to understand how the American people could have been so dumbed down as to not
see that the Social Security system is fraudulent and that it is based on socialism, which is
the redistribution of wealth, right out of the communist manifesto. The Social Security
system first, is fraud, it is insolvent and was never intended to be. It is used for a national
identification number, and a requirement to receive benefits from the conquers (king). The
Social Security system is made to look and act like insurance, all insurance is governed by
admiralty law, which is the kings way of binding those involved with commerce with him.
"The Social Security system may be accurately described as a form of Social Insurance,
enacted pursuant to Congress' power to "spend money in aid of the 'general welfare',"
Helvering vs. Davis [301 U.S., at 640]
"My judgment accordingly is, that policies of insurance are within... the admiralty and
maritime jurisdiction of the United States." Federal Judge Story, in DELOVIO VS. BOIT, 7
Federal Cases, #3776, at page 444 (1815)
You need to know and understand what contribution means in F.I C. A., Federal Insurance
Contribution Act. Read the following definition.
Contribution. Right of one who has discharged a common liability to recover of another also
liable, the aliquot portion which he ought to pay or bear. Under principle of "contribution," a
tort-feasor against whom a judgement is rendered is entitled to recover proportional shares
of judgement from other joint tort- feasor whose negligence contributed to the injury and
who were also liable to the plaintiff. (cite omitted) The share of a loss payable by an insure
when contracts with two or more insurers cover the same loss. The insurer's share of a loss
under a coinsurance or similar provision. The sharing of a loss or payment among several.
The act of any one or several of a number of co-debtors, co-sureties, etc., in reimbursing
one of their number who has paid the whole debt or suffered the whole liability, each to the
extent of his proportionate share. (Blacks Law Dictionary 6th ed.)
Thereby making you obligated for the national debt. The Social Security system is one of
the contractual nexus' between you and the king. Because you are involved in the kings
commerce and have asked voluntarily for his protection, you have accomplished the
following. You have admitted that you are equally responsible for having caused the national
debt and that you are a wrong doer, as defined by the above legal definition. You have
admitted to being a Fourteenth Amendment citizen, who only has civil rights granted by the
king. By being a Fourteenth Amendment citizen, you have agreed that you do not have
standing in court to question the national debt. Keep in mind this is beyond the status of our

country and people, which I covered earlier in this paper. We are in this system of law
because of the conquest of our country.
Congress has transferred its Constitutional obligation of coining money to the federal
reserve, the representatives of the king, this began after the Civil War and the overturning
of the U.S. Constitution, as a result of CONGEST. You have used this fiat money without
objection, which is a commercial benefit, supplied by the kings bankers. Fiat money has no
real value, other than the faith in it, and you CANNOT pay a debt with fiat money, because it
is a debt instrument. A federal reserve note is a promise to pay and is only evidence of
debt. The benefit you have received is you are allowed to discharge your debt, which means
you pass on financial servitude to someone else. The someone else is our children.
When you go to the grocery store and hand the clerk a fifty dollar federal reserve note you
have stolen the groceries and passed fifty dollars of debt to the seller. Americans try to
acquire as much of this fiat money as they can. If Americans were aware of this; it wouldn't
matter to them, because they don't care if the merchandise is stolen as long as it is legal.
But what happens if the system fails? Those with the most fiat money or real property,
which was obtained with fiat money will be forfeited to the king, everything that was
obtained with this fiat money reverts back to the king temporary, I will explain in the
conclusion of this paper. Because use of his fiat money is a benefit, supplied by the king's
bankers; it all transfers back to the king. The king's claim to the increase in this country
comes from the original Charter of 1606. But, it is all hidden, black is white and white is
black, wealth is actually debt and financial slavery.
For those that do not have a Social Security number or think they have rescinded it, you are
no better off. As far as the king is concerned you are subject to him also. Why? Well, just to
list a couple of reasons other than conquest. You use his money and as I said before, this is
discharging debt, without prosecution. You use the goods and services that were obtained
by this fiat money, to enrich your life style and sustain yourself. You drive or travel, which
ever definition you want to use, on the king's highways and roads for pleasure and to earn a
living; meaning you are involved in the king's commerce. On top of these reasons which are
based on received benefits, this country HAS BEEN CONQUERED!
I know a lot of patriots won't like this. Your (our) argument has been that the government
has and is operating outside of the law (United States Constitution). Believe me I don't like
sounding like the devils advocate, but as far as international law goes; and the laws that
govern War between countries, the king/queen of England rule this country, first by financial
servitude and then by actual Conquest and Military Occupation. The Civil War was the
beginning of the Conquest, as evidenced by the Fourteenth Amendment. This Amendment
did several things, as already mentioned. It created the only citizenship available to the
conquered and declared that these citizens had no standing in any court to challenge the
monetary policies of the new government. Why? So the king would always receive his gain
from his Commercial venture. The Amendment also eliminated your use of natural rights
and gave the Conquered civil rights. The Conquered are governed by public policy, instead
of Republic of self-government under God Almighty. Your argument that this can't be, is
frivolous and without merit, the evidence is conclusive.
Nothing has changed since before the Revolutionary War.
All persons whose activities in King's Commerce are such that they fall under this marinelike environment, are into an invisible Admiralty Jurisdiction Contract. Admiralty Jurisdiction
is the KING'S COMMERCE of the High Seas, and if the King is a party to the sea-based
Commerce (such as by the King having financed your ship, or the ship is carrying the King's
guns), then that Commerce is properly governed by the special rules applicable to Admiralty
Jurisdiction. But as for that slice of Commerce going on out on the High Seas without the

King as a party, that Commerce is called Maritime Jurisdiction, and so Maritime is the
private Commerce that transpires in a marine environment. At least, that distinction
between Admiralty and Maritime is the way things once were, but no more. George Mercier,
Invisible Contracts, 1984.
What Lincoln and Jefferson said about the true American danger was very prophetic.
"All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined could not, by force, take a drink from
the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge in a trial of a thousand years. At what point
then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us it must spring
up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we ourselves must be
its author and finisher. Abraham Lincoln
"Our rulers will become corrupt, our people careless... the time for fixing every essential
right on a legal basis is [now] while our rulers are honest, and ourselves united. From the
conclusion of this war we shall be going downhill. It will not then be necessary to resort
every moment to the people for support. They will be forgotten, therefore, and their rights
disregarded. They will forget themselves, but in the sole faculty of making money, and will
never think of uniting to effect a due respect for their rights. The shackles, therefore, which
shall not be knocked off at the conclusion of this war, will remain on us long, will be made
heavier and heavier, till our rights shall revive or expire in a convulsion. Thomas Jefferson
Below are the political platforms of the Democrats and the Republicans, as you can see
there is no difference between the two, plain socialism. They are both leading America to a
World government, just as Cornwallis said, and that government will be the British empire
or promoted by the British.
"We have built foundations for the security of those who are faced with the hazards of
unemployment and old age; for the orphaned, the crippled, and the blind. On the
foundation of the Social Security Act we are determined to erect a structure of economic
security for all our people, making sure that this benefit shall keep step with the ever
increasing capacity of America to provide a high standard of living for all its citizens."
DEMOCRATIC PARTY PLATFORM OF 1936, at page 360, infra.
"Real security will be possible only when our productive capacity is sufficient to furnish a
decent standard of living for all American families and to provide a surplus for future needs
and contingencies. For the attainment of that ultimate objective, we look to the energy, selfreliance and character of our people, and to our system of free enterprise. "Society has an
obligation to promote the security of the people, by affording some measure of protection
against involuntary unemployment and dependency in old age. The NEW DEAL policies,
while purporting to provide social security, have, in fact, endangered it. "We propose a
system of old age security, based upon the following principles:
1. We approve a PAY AS YOU GO policy, which requires of each generation the support of
the aged and the determination of what is just and adequate.
2. Every American citizen over 65 should receive a supplemental payment necessary to
provide a minimum income sufficient to protect him or her from want.
3. Each state and territory, upon complying with simple and general minimum standards,
should receive from the Federal Government a graduated contribution in proportion to its
own, up to a fixed maximum.
4. To make this program consistent with sound fiscal policy the Federal revenues for this
purpose must be provided from the proceeds of a direct tax widely distributed. All will be
benefitted and all should contribute. "We propose to encourage adoption by the states and
territories of honest and practical measures for meeting the problems of employment

insurance. "The unemployment insurance and old age annuity of the present Social Security
Act are unworkable and deny benefits to about two-thirds of our adult population, including
professional men and women and all engaged in agriculture and domestic service, and the
self-employed, while imposing heavy tax burdens upon all."

Defend Those Unalienable Rights.
ADVANCED TOOLS FOR FREEDOM`
`
Dedicated to the thousands of pioneers` who came before and contributed to the
research` and creation of this handbook.
Elements of a Court`
Through the medium of the courts of justice,` whose duty it must be to declare all acts`
contrary to the manifest tenor of` the Constitution void...
Without this all the reservation of particular` rights or privileges would amount to
nothing.
Alexander Hamilton 1`
If you are compelled to appear in court for a civil or criminal` violation, to challenge
jurisdiction (Special or Limited` Appearance) or the constitutionality of a statute, its`
important to be well prepared before facing a judge or a jury.
One must understand the elements of courtroom procedure,` the rules of civil and
criminal procedure, the rules of` evidence, and which jurisdiction the court is operating`
(LAW, EQUITY, ADMIRALTY /MARITIME/ or` STATUTORY).
Challenge Jurisdiction Before Pleading` To challenge jurisdiction, one must understand
the nature` and cause of the action, challenge the oaths of office of court` officers that
abuse the process, refuse unlawful process for` fraud, develop grounds for dismissal,
motions to dismiss,` and understand various pleadings (guilty, not guilty, non est` factum,
non assumptit, corum non judice, confession and` avoidance). Then one can choose to
continue in that` jurisdiction, change venue to the Common law, or develop` an
affirmative defenses (demurrers).

> NON-ASSUMPSIT did not undertake or promise as` alleged.

> CORUM NON JUDICE declaring the court does not` have jurisdiction or venue
over the special character of the` sovereign Citizen.
Until now, the cards have been well stacked in the courts` favor, and an elite, secret club
of attorneys, judges, and` prosecutors are the only ones who actually know the rules of`
the game. They appear to make it up as they go to expedite` their agenda of expropriating
your rights and property.
The time is upon us when all the pieces of this gigantic` puzzle are finally falling into
place, and the sovereign state Citizen will be able to effectively challenge the
monopoly of` the legal fraternity, and restore the checks and balances that` belong in our
constitutional republic.
The Power structure will be compelled by the sovereign` state Citizens to play fair and
abide by the law, or blatantly` abrogate the law in broad daylight (with the video
cameras` rolling and the INTERNET reporting), and be exposed for` all to see.
The Power structure is vulnerable to lawful process. The` truth will be told, and justice
shall be done.
After you have created prima facie evidence of your` sovereign state Citizenship,
understand the elements and` procedures of a court, and are prepared to argue and
defend` your unalienable rights, anticipate that the present judicial` establishment
(political by nature) will abrogate lawful` process consistently without remorse. If you
are damaged by` violations of your rights or the abuse of process, there is` remedy and
recourse.
Step 1: Filing Papers And Notice Of` Indemnification` You must learn how to properly
file papers with the court` clerk. Whenever in doubt, ask questions. If they are` stubborn
or hesitant tell them I file on demand! Do not be` intimidated by court clerks, they are
supposed to be your` public servants. Keep an original and make several copies.
One copy goes to each opposing party. In civil cases, papers` can be mailed and a proof
of service by mail included in the` filing. In criminal cases, papers can be dropped off at
the` attorney for the opposing party (e.g., in a traffic ticket case, a` copy is usually
dropped off at the City Attorneys office).
You can take a Notice of Indemnification with you before` you present your case in
court. Indemnification is a bond` that the court must post on your behalf at least five
days` before your court appearance, if you demand it.
If the administrative tribunal then violates your unalienable` or constitutional rights,
whether a sovereign state Citizen` or U.S. citizen, youll have a recourse for collecting
damages` and compensation.2`
> INDEMNIFY to bond, insure or secure against any loss` or damage that may occur
in the future.
Step 2: Preparation For Appearance` You must have a clear statement prepared before
you go to` court. Create a statement from your affidavits, retain your` full Power of
Attorney, with the general details of your case.
Send any other pertinent affidavits that might help your` case. Keep a few aces in your

hat if you need them. Dont lay` all your cards on the table out-front. You will want to put
in` writing your explicit Reservation of Rights under the` Common law pursuant to
UCC 1-207.
You might also consider bringing your own licensed court` recorder, if you are appearing
in a traffic or municipal court` which are not courts of records. If youre concerned, and
you` have good reason to be, that the court records might be` perjured, or altered by the
court, or if you intend on` appealing, then it must be a court of record.
If youre seriously challenging your traffic ticket, then` request from the court clerk that
the appearance be` scheduled for a court of record, instead of a traffic court.
Municipal courts and often District courts are not courts of` record but administrative
summary process only.
You have far more options and power in court as a sovereign` state Citizen or sui juris
freeman/woman to reclaim your` rights than you do as a U.S. citizen who has already
waived` your constitutional protections and volunteered into` contracts that bind you to
the statutory law.
Your ability to defend your government-granted privileges` evaporates quickly in a
statutory jurisdiction. You can only` win on a procedural technicality.
Becoming a sovereign state Citizen is important to` establish before you have your day
in court, to overcome the` presumptions that you are a U.S. citizen, and have indeed`
entered into contracts with the government. Your sovereign` status will one day afford
you luxuries and affirmative` defenses that a U.S. citizen does not have available.
Step: 3 Appearance And Jurisdiction` When compelled or volunteering to make an
appearance before the court, you are submitting to the jurisdiction and` authority of the
court, unless you challenge jurisdiction, ask` for a Jurisdictional Hearing, or make a
Special or Limited` Appearance.
Discover what jurisdiction the court has, the rules pertaining` to that court, and how it
applies to you, if at all. Look into` the courtroom prior to your appearance. If you see an
Admiralty/` Maritime flag (gold-fringed American flag), you can` safely conclude that
its an Admiralty / Maritime / Equity jurisdiction` or a Military/Martial law tribunal
operating under` emergency powers. Demand to see the signed, original international`
contract if you are forced to appear or file a nonstatutory` abatement.
> COMPULSORY APPEARANCE required showing` up in court of a plaintiff or
defendant, either pro se, or` through an attorney; an appearance and pleading involves a`
voluntary submission to the jurisdiction of the court;` appearance is compelled by the
service of process (you get a` notice, summons, subpoena, or a date noted on the traffic`
ticket); Refuse for Fraud your citations or presentments,` Without Dishonor, pursuant
to UCC 3-501, and then file a` Special or Limited Appearance to challenge
jurisdiction.
> SPECIAL or LIMITED APPEARANCE for the` sole purpose of questioning the
jurisdiction and authority of` the court over the defendant either in personum, or in`
subject matter; the court cannot proceed until the challenge` to jurisdiction is adjudicated,
and the burden of proof is on` the court to establish jurisdiction; challenge jurisdiction
on` paper and file with the court clerk; also revoke their Power` of attorney; do not

motion or move the court to do anything` until jurisdiction is established, otherwise your
jurisdictional` arguments are moot; doesnt work in Admiralty or Military` courts.
> JURISDICTIONAL HEARING a proceeding before` a magistrate without jury to
determine an issue of fact,` specifically regarding whether or not the court has`
jurisdiction; you cannot challenge jurisdiction in Admiralty` or Military courts.
Once you challenge jurisdiction in a criminal case,` the courts have the burden of proof
... and they are` required to back their jurisdictional claim` by showing you pertinent
statutory charges.
5 U.S.C. 556(d)`
Step 4: Arraignment And Pleadings` There are specific rules and court procedures that
must be` followed. Youre better off to sit mute and not incriminate` yourself, than to give
your consent, agree unwittingly, or` unknowingly violate court procedures. Standing in
court or` approaching the bar implies your consent to be tried under` statutory law.
Do not stand in court until the court has answered your` request regarding its jurisdiction.
Jurisdiction must be` squarely challenged. Your rights must be explicitly reserved` at each
step of the proceeding. Failure to deny is an` admission of guilt (28 U.S.C. 8(d)).3`
Hiring or retaining an attorney also implies your consent to` be tried under the statutory
law of that court, and waiving` your right to represent yourself. By hiring or retaining an`
attorney, youve agree to become a ward of the court,
subject to the rules and procedures known only to the State` Bar Associations, subject to
the jurisdiction of the court, and` their mercy. Remember an attorneys first duty is to the`
courts (creditors of the federal United States) and to the Bar` Association, not to the client
(you).4`
> WARD OF THE COURT infants and persons of` unsound mind; most people have
been regarded as children` all their adult lives.
The more laws that are written,` the more criminals are produced.
Lao-Tse, Tao Te Ching`
Sample Arraignment 5` COURT: When asked by a government official what you`
meant when you wrote Without Prejudice by your name, you must say:` CITIZEN:
Your honor, my use of Without Prejudice UCC` 1-207 with my signature on this
document indicates that I` have exercised the remedy provided for in the UCC in book 1`
at section 207, whereby I may reserve my common law right` not to be compelled to
perform under any contract or agreement` that I have not entered into knowingly,
voluntarily and` intentionally, and that reservation serves as Notice upon all`
administrative agencies of government, federal, state and local,` that I do not, and will
not, accept the liability associated` with the compelled benefit of any unrevealed
commercial` agreement.
Once you make a plea, youre under their jurisdiction.
Entering a not guilty plea in a civil matter is admitting to` the existence of the unpaid
bill. You are not refusing to` enter a plea, but merely wishing to understand the basis of`
the charge (debt) before pleading, which is why you are` insisting on a presentment under
UCC 3-505 without` dishonor. Tell the judge, on the record, that you require such`

presentment to determine your plea.

It is an elementary rule of pleading, that a plea` to the jurisdiction is the first in the
order of` pleading, and that any plea which refers to the` court any other question, is a
tacit admission that` the court has a right to judge in the cause, and is a` waiver to all
exceptions to the jurisdiction.
Birty vs. Logan, 6 Bush Ky.8` COURT: The judge will read you the charges and
penalties` involved. He/she will ask if you understand. You must say:` CITIZEN: I
understand what you have said and the penalty` involved. I understand the words you
have used and the` meaning of those words. But I do not understand how the` subject
matter or the penalty can possibly apply to me.
COURT: The judge will ask you to plea (guilty or not guilty).
Do not plea. Once you plea, or the court pleas for you, then` jurisdiction is assumed. This
is where you challenge the` courts jurisdiction.
You must say:` CITIZEN: Your honor, I cannot enter a plea as I desire to` challenge the
jurisdiction of this court and am now asking` this court to set a jurisdictional hearing.
Until jurisdiction is` proven, once challenged, no plea can be accepted.
COURT: If the judge enters a plea you must object.
CITIZEN: I object to the court entering a plea because I` desire to challenge the
jurisdiction of the court, and until` jurisdiction is proven, once challenged, no pleas can
be` accepted. The court is not permitted to accept a plea until` jurisdiction is settled.
COURT: If the judge denies motion to dismiss.
CITIZEN: I object, the court has done nothing on the` record to prove that the court has
jurisdiction.
COURT: The judge may say, the statute says...blah, blah,` blah. You must object.
CITIZEN: I object. I have not filed any arguments. I have` not made any legal
arguments. I have merely made a motion` and that is why I want the hearing so we can
settle this issue` of jurisdiction. Then I can file my formal motion. All I have` done is
challenge the jurisdiction. Now that I know the` charges, I am asking the court to set a
hearing, plain and` simple, set a date and we will have the jurisdictional hearing.
If jurisdiction is proven, then I will go on and plea.
COURT: As a last resort, if the judge persists and assigns a` plea then you must say:`
CITIZEN: I object. If this court proceeds with entering a` plea on my behalf without
first establishing jurisdiction for` the record, then this court is doing so under a hidden,`
statutory jurisdiction with an unrevealed contract known` only to the secret society of the
State Bar Association. If this` doesnt get the case dismissed, then demand a Writ of`
Mandamus, which is a request to have the case reviewed by` a superior court.
Writ Of Mandamus` Step 5: Jurisdictional Hearing` File your Statement with the
court prior to the hearing.
Then prepare for an interesting exchange between yourself` and the magistrate or judge.
Sample Jurisdictional Hearing 6` COURT: The judge will say, How do you challenge`
jurisdiction? You can say.

CITIZEN: Your honor, I have some questions concerning` the nature of the action that I
dont understand. (6th` Amendment) Is the action against me civil or criminal?
COURT: Its a criminal action. He/she wont say civil,` otherwise it would go to federal
court.
CITIZEN: Your honor, the Constitution authorizes two` criminal jurisdictions for the
court. One of these is Common` law . But under the Common law there must be a corpus`
delecti or damaged party before the court can recognize any` jurisdiction. This cannot be
a Common law action because` there is no sworn complaint from a damaged party.
Therefore this court does not have a criminal jurisdiction` under Common law. (If the
judge replies that this is a` Common law court, then demand a Bill of Particulars.)`
The only other criminal jurisdiction authorized for the` court is the breech of an
International Maritime Contract` under the criminal aspects of an Admiralty jurisdiction.
Im` not aware of having ever entered any maritime contracts, so` I deny that any exist.
Can you tell me what jurisdiction the` court is exercising in the action against me?
COURT: The judge may reply: Its a statutory jurisdiction.
Statutory = Admiralty / Maritime = Military /` Martial Law` CITIZEN: Your honor,
Ive never heard of that jurisdiction,` and the Constitution doesnt mention any such
jurisdiction.
Please, where can I obtain the published rules for the` criminal procedure for statutory
jurisdiction? (There arent` any, of course.)` COURT: The judge might be mad or upset
and refuse to` practice law from the bench or give advice.
CITIZEN: Let the record show that the courts have` authority to conduct a criminal
action under a secret` jurisdiction that is known only to the courts and licensed` attorneys,
thereby denying the defendant the right to defend` in his own person. I am appealing
the legal determination` made by this court that it can conduct criminal action under` a
statutory jurisdiction, and in my appeal, I am naming you,` your honor, as witness in my
favor, and Ill issue a subpoena` duces tecum, in which you will be required to bring a
copy of` the rules of criminal proceedings in a statutory jurisdiction` when you enter the
appeals court.
And I am subpoenaing the Prosecuting Attorney as my` witness to the fact that the judge
said...blah, blah.
> SUBPOENA command to appear at a certain time and` place to give testimony on a
certain matter; subpoena duces` tecum requires the production of books, papers and
others` things.
Step 6: Affirmative Defense` If you fall into a jurisdictional trap, then you must prepare`
an affirmative defense on your behalf. Prepare yourself` before the court by explicitly
Reserving your Rights under` the Common law pursuant to UCC 1-207. Develop a
strategy` utilizing the remedies and recourse available in the UCC.
You have the right to discovery, to find out from the` prosecutor under which statute
youre being tried, and to see` evidence of the presentment, without dishonor pursuant to`
UCC 3-505.
> DISCOVERY modern, pretrial procedure for getting` information held by the

adverse party; you have the right of` discovery, to subpoena information from adverse
parties you` can also use FOIA requests to get information from the` government
agencies or sue them under Title 5556.
If the State is bringing forth the charges, then demand that` the State take the witness
stand and produce the victim.
According to the Common law Writ of Habeas Corpus, if` there is no victim, there is
no crime. A legal fiction cannot be` injured or victimized. You can always plead the 6th`
Amendment, that you do not understand the nature of the` charges and must be aware of
what law you are allegedly` breaking.
The court cannot proceed if a defendant admittedly does not` understand the charges. You
can also demand a jury of your` peers, for any offense over twenty-one ($21) lawful
dollars,` not FRNs. (7th Amendment). You must override the` governments presumptions
that you are accepting and` have received any benefits, privileges or securities from
the` government. Give Judicial Notice of prevailing case law or` Supreme Court
decisions relevant to the case at hand.

Challenging Statutory Jurisdiction` [Editors Note: Thanks to Dan Meador for his
research and` analysis here.
The jurisdictional issue, or lack of subject matter jurisdiction` can be argued in virtually
every case, state or federal.
Wrongful jurisdiction is always a basis for appeal until the` issue of distinguishing
judicial power from legislative power,` the Common law versus the commercial sides of
the court is` properly adjudicated.
The separation of powers is paramount in a constitutional` republic. The problem is that
the courts are not presently` accountable to the law or enforcing these doctrines.

Wrongful prosecution and the misapplication of a commercial` statute upon a private,

sovereign individual is` common in all the cases we've seen. Americans are being`
compelled into a contract without knowledge or consent.
> MINOR PREMISE a concurrent or joint resolution` of the legislature is not law,
and neither are statutes.
> MAJOR PREMISE only a properly convened grand` jury can indict and convict a
sovereign.
Nisi prius rules of Civil Law are repugnant to state and` national constitutions; the key
concern is the exercise of` non-jurisdictional authority via way of Title I courts of the`
United States; Title 1 courts have been incompetent at law` since Erie Railroad Company
v. Tompkins, 304 U.S. 64-92.
> NISI PRIUS a trial held for the issue of facts before a` jury and presiding judge; no
issues of law raised; jury` judging the facts not the law.
The jurisdiction of Title 1 courts of the United States` operating as nisi prius courts under
Title IV authority, is` specifically articulated at 18 USC 7(3), which prescribes the`
inland (within the state republics) special United States` territorial and maritime
jurisdiction.
Within the state republics, this foreign corporation, the` United States Government, has
jurisdiction only on federal` enclaves such as forts, magazines, dock yards, and other`
needful buildings where state legislatures have ceded` jurisdiction (or participated in
federal funding or mandates).
FRCP, Rule 54 defines Act of Congress as being specifically` applicable only to the
District of Columbia and within other` United States territorial jurisdiction. Aside from
everything` else, the 11th Amendment precludes jurisdiction of United` States courts
within the states. Within the framework of the` Sovereign Immunities Act, the de jure
people, Citizens of the` state republics, are states in fact where the geographical` United
States is concerned.
Non-Constitutional, Not Unconstitutional Law` State District and Circuit Courts
operate as legislative courts` to effect nonconstitutional law, not unconstitu-tional
law. The federal State and United States code law is in derogation rather than abrogation
of constitutional and` common law indigenous to the state republics.
If any given statute abrogates the Common law, it changes it.
However, the statute which is in derogation of Common law` operates outside Common
law, inclusive of the` constitutions, without materially affecting or altering it. 7`
1-103 Supplementary General Principles of Law` Applicable` Unless displaced by
the particular provisions of this Act, the` principles of law and equity, including the law
merchant and` the law relative to capacity to contract, principal and agent,` estoppel,
fraud, misrepresentation, duress, coercion, mistake,` bankruptcy, or other validating or
invalidating cause` shall supplement its provision.
For example, Note 6 for 1-103 of the UCC states that the` Code complements, not
replaces constitutional or common` law. The constitution and Common law is black, and`
the code is white occupying the circle.

AmJur, 2nd edition under the subheading conflict of law,

it was discovered that non-constitutional code law accommodates` private international
law. However, when non-constitutional` law is confronted with constitutional and
common` law, statutory code law must yield or fall if it conflicts` with constitutional and
Common law indige-nous to the` state republic. Non-constitutional statutory law
remains` non-constitutional so long as it yields to or is corrected by` constitutional and
Common law.
It becomes unconstitutional when it is imposed on sovereign` rather than subject classes,
or when it is challenged on constitutional` grounds and the court does not concede under`
the mandate for judicial notice of constitutional and Common` law.
If an original action in law is filed in any given county (within` the proper framework of
Common law), the appeal route` is through the state supreme Court (i.e., state Supreme`
court) which has original jurisdiction at law or in equity and` subsequently the law side of
the supreme Court of the united` states of America.8` In other words, state (or federal
State) district or circuit` courts do not have a Common law capacity, they operate
exclusively` as nisi prius courts of the de facto federal State under` Title IV authority of
the United States. Appeals on the` Civil side of the court would be to the 9th Circuit
Court of` Appeals.
The Magna Charta is the first cornerstone of the Common` law. Title 1 courts have been
incompetent at law since Erie` Railroad vs. Tompkins.
The supreme Court declared that there is no general Common` law in the United States,
thus acquiescing to the perpetual` emergency declared March 9, 1933. The U.S. supreme`
Court retains original jurisdiction at law under Rule 17 and` other rules and statutes of the
U.S.C. Modern codified Civil` Law dates to the British Judicial Act of 1873. Codes of
civil` and criminal procedure, the uniform fair debt collection act,` state income tax
codes, the Uniform Federal Tax Lien Filing` Act, traffic codes, state health and welfare
laws, divorce and` child support laws, the UCC, and a bevy of other code legislation` all
presume that the state republics are federal States` to the detriment of the population at
large and particularly` the sovereign state Citizens of their respective state republics.
9` Imposition of fines, incarceration, and other penalties for` non-performance and
various alleged crimes are premised` on the presumption of a contractual obligation to
some` higher federal authority and their principals.
On nearly all legal documents generated by courts and other` government institutions, a
fictitious corporate person is` created by capitalizing all letters in the name, (i.e.,
JOHNNY` LIBERTY) in order to perpetuate the fraud and deception` and steal the lawful
character of the sovereign who would` otherwise be entitled to existing rights and
remedies` preserved in the Common law under their Christian name.
A few obvious constitutional and Common law principles` condemn closing courts to
choice of counsel by granting` exclusive domain to bar-licensed attorneys, members of
the` club subject to the court in the same manner as other` government employees. Within
the framework of Common` law, the term counsel includes both attorneys at law and`
non-attorney counselors of law.
The exclusive domain of attorneys in both state and federal` courts is the representation

of dependent and incompetent` persons--corporate entities that exist by consent of`

government, their agencies or indigents. Right to counsel of` choice is maintained by the
constitutions and Common law.
The nisi prius court is legislative rather than a judicial court.
It poses a special problem for the judges who operate in a` ministerial rather than a
judicial capacity.
A magistrate cannot deprive the de jure people of life, liberty` or property without
effecting a Bill of Attainder. Legislative` and administrative branches of government
cannot pass` then enforce laws against the de jure people.
This kind of justice is condemned by the Separation of` Powers Doctrine as well as being
repugnant to principles of` Common law. This perverse system of peonage could be`
peacefully corrected in short order if those who hold` legislative, judicial and
enforcement offices would simply` comply with the law when constitutional and
Common law` are presented in opposition to statutory law. But history` teaches us well,
that wealth, power and privilege are never` voluntarily surrendered.
Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act` Editors Note: According to Joe Stevens, invoking
the` Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act has been effective in` some cases for the sovereign
American arguing immunity` from prosecution in a statutory jurisdiction. If you consider`
that the American National and/or sovereign state Citizen has the judicial capacity to
create a government,` and the sovereign state republic is a foreign state, then the`
argument follows.
The American legislator has taken an early incentive to draft` a national statute on foreign
sovereign immunity. The` Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 (FSIA) was for a`
large part the merit of Monroe Leigh, a Washington` D.C. based international lawyer and
at that time legal` advisor of the Department of State. Not only was the FSIA` carefully
drafted, but there is valuable additional information to be found on the interpretation of
the Act in` the House Report that reads as follows:` New Chapter 97 of title 28, United
States Code, starts from a` premise of immunity and then creates exceptions to the`
general principle. The Chapter is thus cast in a manner` consistent with the way in which
the law of sovereign` immunity has developed.
Stating the basic principle in terms of immunity may be of` some advantage to foreign
states in doubtful cases, but,` since sovereign immunity is an affirmative defense which`
must be specially pleaded, the burden will remain on the` foreign state to produce
evidence that a foreign state or one` of its subdivisions, agencies or instrumentalities is
the` defendant in the suit and that the plaintiffs claim relates to` a public act of the
foreign state that is, an act not within` the exceptions in sections 1605-1607. Once the
foreign state` has produced such prima facie evidence of immunity, the` burden of going
forward would shift to the plaintiff to` produce evidence establishing that the foreign state
is not` entitled to immunity. The ultimate burden of proving` immunity would rest with
the foreign state.
This passage of the House Report shows that foreign` sovereign immunity has been
drafted as an affirmative` defense which has to be specifically pleaded.
This would imply that the persuasive burden as to the` existence of the facts determining

sovereign immunity (i.e.
