RE: I could be in jail in 60 minutes. I've been using myself as "stingbait" for 8 years, gathering evidence of corruption at Court. On Friday, I got what I needed, but at the cost of exposing myself to being jailed on contempt.
Interesting. I like, and agree with, what you've said. That is indeed the way that it should be, and the way that it could be. But it only works with a moral population. It only works, as you point out, if people stand in solidarity for each other, one for all and all for one.
I am your opportunity to prove that you and a few others here are capable of that. My case is so clear, so extreme, that if you won't stand with me in solidarity, then you yourself become proof that anarchy cannot work with people who are only as unselfish as you are.
None of that is meant to attack you personally. It is my opinion that urban society and the Invisible Fist of the free market destroys our humanity and turns us into selfish sheep who are not capable of attaining the character and integrity that is illustrated by the story of the farmers.
How can i help you?
I have given you access to a monkey wrench, its up to you to get it placed in the cogs.
Is your court problem over?
I don't mean to put you personally on the spot. I'm using your own remarks to prove that you, like everyone else, are powerless to stand with me in any meaningful, effective way. You have neither the time, the resources, nor the motivation to do so. There is no bond between us that would compel you to stand with me.
To be like the farmers in the romanticized, idealized story, you would simply say, "I can see that you are being attacked. What do you need me to do?"
The answer is simple. I need you, and thousands of other men and women, to "lift a finger" by being counted. I need many people to take an hour or two to inform yourselves of my situation and to publicly, visibly declare that you stand with me and that you all will ensure that my story will be preserved and told, so that my enemies can know that "taking me out" will not silence the story and will not save them.
Regarding your monkey wrench, I am swamped with legal papers that must be written, served, and filed, and with evidence that must be preserved and presented. At the moment, I am searching for critical evidence that I think was deleted due to a bug in the zip program. I don't have fucking time to run down leads regarding general suggestions that are not informed by the particulars of my cases and so are not likely to be effective.
You might well have the character and integrity required to make "one for all and all for one" a reality. Converse with me to inform yourself of my situation enough that YOU can determine whether the monkey wrench has potential. Bond with me, become a real friend, and then bring others to this, so that I become We.
Challenging the state's lack of evidence is universal to all cases.
If they havent presented evidence that you are subject to their jurisdiction, the case cant move forward until they do.
If you dont raise the issue you waive it.
It can be brought up at any point, even on appeal, but you have to do it, your lawyer wont.
The time spent learning how to get the state not meeting its burden on the record will not be a waste of your time.
It kept me out of prison.
The law (Penal Code 1004) does not work that way in California, and I am skeptical that it does, or even could, work that way anywhere. What jurisdiction was your case in?
Oklahoma, but the fellas are all over the country and the uk.
The state never provides evidence to support its claim of jurisdiction over you, because there is none unless you agree to it.
Youve read Lysander Spooner.
Absent that evidence, their case fails to meet its burden to prove every element of the charge.
Jurisdiction is one of those elements.
If you, because your lawyer will get disbarred, dont raise its absence from the record the judge assumes you waived the issue.
If you raise the issue, evidence of jurisdiction is not presented, and the judge allows the case to move forward, he commits the felony of allowing a case to progress absent evidence.
Im telling you, if i had been on the ball in the beginning i couldve gotten the whole thing dismissed.
Felony drug charges.
As it was, i let it get to trial day on misdemeanor charges because i didnt know what i was doing.
Rather than lose on appeal from the county jail due to a lack of access to the court of criminal appeals, i signed to the misdemeanor with no fines, no probation, and time served.
Without a lawyer, at all.
You know how much they love money.
That alone was a victory.
You got to do what you do, i can only tell you what worked for me.
If there is a next time, i will know better what to do from the first time i talk to the judge.
My prior post was unduly negative. I am exhausted. The procedure that you are referring to is, in California, called a demurrer. (There is also a motion in arrest of judgment.) In Federal District Court, it is a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim.
You are correct in that when you are asked to enter a plea, you must raise all issues of sufficiency and jurisdiction, or they are, with some exceptions, waived.
I know California law and procedure thoroughly. I am dealing with judges who are full throttle renegade. On Thursday, the day before the contempt hearing, I filed a Younger (1971) complaint in federal district court. The record that the State Court is giving me is perfect for a Younger (1971) action.
Ok.
The fellas are telling me that federal courts ignore the challenge to jurisdiction.
Not one successful ruling in 20 years of trying.
Interesting. I'm starting to think that there might be something real to your "wrench". But the bottom line is that I need to find people who will do what I need them to do, rather than what they want to do.
Right now, I need a fan club. Period. If people (hundreds or thousands) form a "fan club", it will send a clear and undeniable "game over" message to my opponents. My life is at stake in this. It is a race, with the question being who will take me seriously first, my opponents, or a "fan club" who has formed for the purpose of monitoring the unfolding story, preserving the whole story, and speaking the story to bring it to the attention of others, including people who can be held to account for not acting on the information to stop the evil being done to me.
Make my situation the "cause celebre" for STEEM, and you will have something that could attract huge numbers of people to this platform. It's a win-win.
