Clerk of Court & Records elected for Californian jural society
Californians join Texians
In an Ad Hoc Assembly of the Californian jural society convened for the purpose, a Clerk of Court & Records was elected and seated July 9, 2015 by the Assembly using lawful parliamentary procedure. The jural society is a body politic made up of We the People for the purpose of administering justice. California becomes the second state, along with Texas, with a jural society to administer justice according to the Fundamental Law of the Land.
Each American living in one of the 50 states, being a co-tenant in possession of the sovereignty, which is itself an hereditament from our founding fathers, has not only the right but also the duty to participate in our jural societies, which are on an equal footing with the original States’ jural societies in all respects whatever.
The due process followed by the Californian jural society is documented and is available on request for other Americans to continue their state's jural society. Requests can be sent to the newly elected Clerk of Court & Records of the Californian jural society. [mailto://californianjuralsociety@juralsocieties.org]

Attention - Public Notice Information
Definition and Explanation of Ecclesiastical Sovereignty
Ecclesiastical Sovereignty: Each Christian Church in America (the U. S. A.), the Head of which is our Lord, Jesus, the Christ, is part and parcel of an Ecclesiastical Sovereignty existing in law since The Treaty of Paris, ratified September 3, 1783. This defines a “Sacred Space”[1] available to all Christians in America. The value of a Sacred Space was shown by the prophet Haggai in the Old Testament when he spoke of the need to come out of Babylon and return to Jerusalem and rebuild the Temple of Solomon.
Each Christian Church remains a part of this Ecclesiastical Sovereignty in perpetuity; provided it has not voluntarily converted itself into a state created Corporation Aggregate and filed a Form 1023 with the Internal Revenue Service for which it then received designation as a state regulated not-for-profit business receiving a number authorizing it to conduct business with a tax exemption[2].
When the Constitution of the United States was ratified and the First United States Congress was convened, the enacted Bill of Rights prohibited the newly created government from being able to dissolve this Ecclesiastical Sovereignty. Henceforth, this type of Ecclesiastical Sovereignty will be known as an “American Style of Ecclesiastical Sovereignty”[3]. It is sometimes referred to as “The Separation of Church and State” which is memorialized in Section 508 of Title 26, USC, as a mandatory exception[4] (not exemption) for churches.
History and Explanation: Before Jesus’ crucifixion He had explained that it would be through the Apostles and all others that believe in Him that He would build His earthly organization. Then, shortly after our Lord Jesus’ resurrection, Jesus explained that He had been given all authority in Heaven and Earth, making Him the true Sovereign. Also at that time, Jesus issued the Great Commission to all of His disciples. These all combined to result in Jesus delegating an earthly sovereignty to all the disciples. For example, Peter, the Apostle, a contemporary of our Lord Jesus, became a sovereign individual.
Approximately ten days after Jesus ascended into Heaven it is now commonly accepted that the Christian Church began on the Day of Pentecost, a Sunday in the year 28 of the Common Era (“CE”), in Jerusalem, Judea. Peter, the Apostle, the sovereign individual, was presiding when the Holy Spirit came to earth for all. [Note that the earthly sovereignty was vested in the ones that God called out to represent Him on earth. These “called out ones” then became known by their Greek name, ecclesia. Thus, the term ecclesiastical refers to the ones called out to represent Jesus and speak in His name. Over the centuries ecclesia has become synonymous with “church”.]
With the advent of monarchies in Europe being established under the authority of the Pope in Rome, there was the delegating of this earthly sovereignty to the Office of the Monarchs by the Pope. There came with this the “Divine Right of Kings” which established their authority to rule over other humans; making them subjects of the King. Therefore, in Europe the Monarchs held the sovereignty and the people were the Monarchs subjects.
Later, the Protestant Reformation resulted in replacing the Pope with the Monarch(s) as the head(s) of the church on earth. This resulted in an unintended consequence. Since there was more than one Monarchy there arose the practice of each earthly Sovereign Monarch establishing a religion for his subjects using the Divine Right of Kings as the authority. Henceforth, this type of Ecclesiastical Sovereignty will be known as an “European Style of Ecclesiastical Sovereignty”[5].
When the Monarch(s) became the Head(s) of the Church, great wealth came with it. This led to abuse, as well as terrible disruptions, in the religious life of the Monarch’s subjects. People, as subjects of the Monarch’s law, could be compelled by their Monarch to follow certain religious beliefs and practices and it was considered a crime for them not to do so. Many were persecuted; many were prosecuted and burned at the stake.
It was this environment that drove the people to leave their homeland and come to the New World; i.e., America. From the beginning of the migration, many people had no desire to ever become the subject of an earthly Monarch that had the authority to establish the religious practices they were to follow. This was only preventable if the government, that had the police power, worked for the people and not the reverse. Therefore, the principle of self-government was enforced and it was driven by the freedom of religion. These people saw Jesus as their sovereign, provider, and protector.
This stood in direct contrast to the character and nature of monarchies. With the unparalleled wealth of resources in the New World, the struggle for control of it by a remote Sovereign Monarch was inevitable. Especially with the Monarch continuing to view all of the people in the colonies as subjects. The following question arose; if the people had the power to control the governmental authority closest to them why should an earth-based government situated thousands of miles away be handled any differently? They had tasted freedom; they wanted representation in that remote government that would present their views and protect their interests.
The history is well known as to what followed. The American Revolutionary War ensued resulting in the recognition of thirteen new sovereign nations as found in Article 1 of the Treaty of Paris, ratified September 3, 1783. To Wit:
Article 1: His Brittanic Majesty acknowledges the said United States, viz., New Hampshire, Massachusetts Bay, Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia, to be free sovereign and independent states (emphasis added), that he treats with them as such, and for himself, his heirs, and successors, relinquishes all claims to the government, propriety, and territorial rights of the same and every part thereof.
The sovereignty of each these former colonies is verified by the use of the phase “Congress shall earnestly recommend it to the legislatures…” in Article 5 of the Treaty of Paris. To Wit:
Article 5: It is agreed that Congress shall earnestly recommend it to the legislatures of the respective states to provide for the restitution of all estates, rights, and properties, which have been confiscated belonging to real British subjects; and also of the estates, rights, and properties of persons resident in districts in the possession on his Majesty's arms and who have not borne arms against the said United States. And that persons of any other description shall have free liberty to go to any part or parts of any of the thirteen United States and therein to remain twelve months unmolested in their endeavors to obtain the restitution of such of their estates, rights, and properties as may have been confiscated; and that Congress shall also earnestly recommend to the several states a reconsideration and revision of all acts or laws regarding the premises, so as to render the said laws or acts perfectly consistent not only with justice and equity but with that spirit of conciliation which on the return of the blessings of peace should universally prevail. And that Congress shall also earnestly recommend to the several states that the estates, rights, and properties, of such last mentioned persons shall be restored to them, they refunding to any persons who may be now in possession the bona fide price (where any has been given) which such persons may have paid on purchasing any of the said lands, rights, or properties since the confiscation.
And it is agreed that all persons who have any interest in confiscated lands, either by debts, marriage settlements, or otherwise, shall meet with no lawful impediment in the prosecution of their just rights.
The King of England was forced to surrender his sovereignty with regard to these thirteen new nations. Since the members of these legislatures were representatives (agents) of the people (the Principal) the earthly sovereignty that was initially given to Peter the Apostle in 28 CE had passed to each and every human in the thirteen new nations. The Sacred Space for the Christian Church known as the Ecclesiastical Sovereignty was set apart for what turned out to be forever.
The Founding Fathers were aware of this when the Constitutional Committee of the Continental Congress reported the proposed Constitution out of committee because they also prescribed the method of ratification that was to be followed. The Committee determined that special elections for ratification were to be held. The representatives in the legislature (agents) would not be the ones voting; the people (the Principal) would be the ones voting on ratification
When the Constitution of the United States was ratified and the First United States Congress was convened, the enacted Bill of Rights prohibited the newly created government from being able to dissolve the Ecclesiastical Sovereignty. Henceforth, this type of Ecclesiastical Sovereignty will be known as an “American Style of Ecclesiastical Sovereignty”[6]. It is sometimes referred to as “The Separation of Church and State” and is memorialized in Section 508 of Title 26, USC, as a mandatory exception for churches.

Two Constitutions - Two Domiciles
Have you ever seen the movie "The Matrix"? Well, this could be the true matrix. Click the image to see "Two Constitutions - Two Domiciles".
What Does "Know All Men By These Present" Mean?
"KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENT"
It is often used and sometimes requred legal mumbo jumbo at the start of a public proclamation...
It sort of like saying. "by posting this properly in a public place in accordance with the law it is safe for me to assume that everyone in the whole world know the following"
It kind of gives you the right to say "I Told you so" without really having to tell everyone.
You are making the document a matter of Public record which any truely interested party could have access to and take action with it.
It is used often on the following types of documents:
Power of Attorny where a person with the proper papers and signatures present can sign and speak for another person.
A Last Will and Testiment
Again which gives an executor the power to speak and act for the person who has just died.
A Deed for a Pacel of Land
This document again tell anyone who can read it and understand it that the Seller has SAID that the Land Now belongs to someone else and that they have permission to do with it as they please (except for certain considerations which may be preexisting covenants such as type of use restrictions. Such as saying that a town can have a parcel of land that I am giving to them as long as they build a library on the land and place books in it that are made of paper. (I personally know of one such deal where the donated library was not allowed to contain computers instead of books).
It is used in several forms as below:
"KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENT"
"KNOWN ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENT"
"KNOWN ALL MEN BY THIS PRESENT"
"KNOW ALL MEN BY THIS PRESENT"
"MAKE IT KNOWN THAT"
"LET IT BE KNOWN THAT"
The Key (#4) - Facts On Common Law
FACTS ON COMMON LAW
These can be used in a Common Law Declaration (affidavit)
Fact 1. Moses was not an attorney, and yet, God called him to be the Great Lawgiver to the Nations. Moses is one of three figures that stand above the east entrance to the Supreme Court Building of the United States. Moses is one of the figures of historical lawgivers depicted in the building. And, the Ten Commandments is displayed in several places within the building
Fact 2. Nothing was done by the Founding Fathers to take any power or authority away from the Common Law because they considered it synonymous with God's Law, and something they had no power to amend or destroy.
Fact 3. Article 7 of the Bill of Rights took away the right of the Judiciary of the United States to review any decision by the Superior Common Law Judiciary in each State. This was done to eliminate the possibility of the Judiciary of the United States gaining unlawful power over We the People.
Fact 4. The fact that the Superior Common Law Court of each State is the proper venue and has the jurisdiction for all matters concerning We the People. There was never any discussion or contemplation about changing this fact. It was essentially "etched in stone."
Fact 5. It is very clear, that the Supreme Court and the Superior Court are separate entities. The Supreme Court is created under the provisions of the Constitution for the State and for the Federal union. We the People have granted no Common Law powers to either the State or the Federal union. The Superior Common Law Court is the Court of We the People and is Superior to any other court in the land. We the People retained all powers and rights to the Common Law System.
Fact 6. The Common Law Court System is superior to all other laws, courts, and judicial systems that were authorized to be established by either the State or Federal Constitutions. The Common Law Courts are Superior to all court that could, or may be validly established under the provisions of the said Constitutions, or that could be unlawfully created by men and women who would pervert the valid system under the several Constitutions for their own purposes.
Fact 7. The Seventh Article of the Bill of Rights, which is the Seventh Amendment to the Constitution for the united States of America, provides that no court in the land, not even the Supreme Court, has the power to re-examine the decision of a Common Law Court, unless it is done in accordance with the rules and procedures set forth in Common Law.
In Suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any Court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law. – Bill of Rights - Amendment VII
Fact 8. Common Law trials are those where the Common Law jury acts as the Judges, and in which they exercise the authority to hear and decide questions of both Law and fact.
Fact 9. Common Law deals with the Legal Relationships between people with God given rights, the Property Rights of people with God given rights, Powers and Liabilities, and Types of Actions, rather than merely theoretical definitions of abstract legal concepts like the Equity Court.
Fact 10. Common Law preserves the Rights of Man and was recognized by Our Founding Fathers as superior to all other forms of legal structure. This is why they made it the basis of all legitimate law in America today.
Fact 11. The power and the authority vested in the Common Law system was retained by We the People. That's why it is not discussed in the Constitution. It is the People's Court.
Fact 12. The people have the right to set up a Common Law Court in whatever manner, and under whatever circumstances, that to them is the best to meet their needs. We the People do not require any separate or special authorization from any State or Federal entity in order establish a Common Law Court.
Fact 13. The people rule over the States and the Federal union and do not need anyone's permission to exercise their unalienable rights.
Fact 14. Neither the States, nor the Federal union, has the power or authority to tell We the People how to set up our Court system. Nor do they have the power, the authority, or the right, to ignore the decisions from such Courts.
Fact 15. Absolutely no powers of Common Law were granted to the States or to the federal union. Neither the State Legislature, the State court system, the federal Congress nor the federal court system has the power or the authority to declare, or make, any rules of Common Law that would be applicable in a State or anywhere in the Federal system. As recently as 1938 the Supreme Court ruled:
There is no federal general common law. Congress has no power to declare substantive rules of common law applicable in a state whether they be local in their nature or 'general,' be they commercial law or a part of the law of torts. And no clause in the Constitution purports to confer such a power upon the federal courts. – Erie R.R. Co. v. Tompkins, 304 U.S. 64 (1938)
We the People is a General Partnership
Fact 16. - We the People are a General Partnership wherein each member is a General Partner. We declared in the Declaration of Independence that we are all equal; therefore there are no limited partners.
General partnerships are properly such, where the parties carry on all their trade and business for their joint benefit and profit. – Bouvier's Law Dictionary – 6th Edition – 1865
Partnerships are created by mere act of the parties; and in this they differ from, corporations which require the sanction of public authority, either express or implied. The consent of the parties may be testified, either in express terms, as by articles of partnership, or positive agreement; or the assent may be tacit, and to be implied solely from the act of the parties. An implied or presumptive assent has equal operation with one that is express and determined. And it may be laid down as a general and undeniable proposition, that persons having a mutual interest in the particular business, carried on by them, or persons appearing ostensibly to the world as joint traders, are to be recognized and treated as partners, whatever may be the nature of the agreement under which they act, or whatever motive or inducement may prompt them to such an exhibition. – Bouvier's Law Dictionary – 6th Edition – 1865
Fact 17. As a General Partner in We the People have the power and the authority to speak in behalf of all We the People if I see something that is not right. Even if I do not represent a large group of We the People, my sole voice is adequate as a General Partner in the We the People Partnership.
Fact 18. A General Partner in any Partnership has the power and the authority to speak, to act, and to bind the Partnership to certain agreements. Every General Partner is also responsible for the actions and activities of the Partnership.
Fact 19. Since Each General Partner in the We the People Partnership by Constitution, means any and all acts and actions, taken by any General Partner must be in keeping with the might, mind, and will of the other General Partners.
The object of the partnership must be legal. All partnerships, therefore, which are formed for any purpose forbidden by law or good morals, are null and void. But all the partners in such a partnership are jointly liable to third persons who may contract with them without a knowledge of the illegal or immoral object of the partnership – Bouvier's Law Dictionary – 6th Edition – 1865
Fact 20. Actions taken by any General Partner that are outside the bounds set by the other General Partners are unlawful and illegal actions that are null and void. Even though an innocent third party may have contracted with the Partnership, such parties are responsible for determining on their own the validity of the actions of the General Partners they are dealing with, and the ability of those General Partners to bind the General Partnership. General Partners who have acted in contravention to the will of the other General Partners must, and will, be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Fact 21. It would be an act of unrighteous dominion, which is against the Laws of God, for a General Partner to amend or alter the provisions set forth in the Constitution for the united States of America, or in any State Constitution, on his own initiative.
Fact 22. Each and every General Partner is responsible to watch over and protect the several Constitutions that have been created. It is their personal obligation to defend and protect the Constitutions from those who would pervert the desires and wishes of the General Partners when the several Constitutions were created.
Fact 23. Therefore, any General Partner who is aware of, or discovers that there are Partnership Employees who are not performing their Mandated tasks, or who are entering into Prohibited areas by exceeding their granted authority, is obligated to take whatever action he, or she, deems necessary to correct the problem and once more establish the order set by the General Partnership.
Fact 24. - As employees of one of the entities established under the control of the General Partnership you are an employee of the General Partnership. Whether you are employed by one of the several States, or by the Federal union does not matter. You are an employee of the General Partnership because you are paid by the General Partners in the General Partnership.
Fact 25. This Oath of Office is a binding contract between We the People, who are the real power and authority behind the Constitution for the united States of America, and the several Officers who have executed their Oath of Office.
Fact 26. Every official who took this Oath of Office and enforces the Corporate Laws, has violated the Oath of Office.
Fact 27. The contract created by the Oath of Office taken by the State and Federal Officers guarantees to We the People that the Officers will in fact obey and defend the Constitution for the united States of America and for each and every Constitution for the several States.
Fact 28. The contract created by the Oath of Office taken by an Officer of one of the several States guarantees to We the People that the Officer will in fact obey and defend the Constitution of the State he is an officer for, and the Constitution for the united States of America.
Fact 29. The word "obey" implicitly implies that the officers will faithfully observe the mandates and prohibitions that have been written into the Law of the Constitution by We the People.
Fact 30. The word "defend" requires each officer to be diligent in watching over their own actions and those of their employees. They must also defend against the actions of the other Officers and employees of the several States and the Federal Union in such a way as to insure that nothing is done to disparage, discredit, or in any way diminish, harm, or destroy the basic concepts established by We the People in our Constitution for the united States of America.
Fact 31. Treason against a State, or against the united States, is defined as levying war against the State, or against the united States, or in giving aid and comfort to those who are levying war against the State, or the united States. This definition was specifically used by our Founding Fathers so that We the People who are engaged in performing their obligation to effect the operation of the government in such a way as to best protect their safety and happiness cannot be charged with treason because they intend to amend or abolish a State government, or the Federal Union, and plan to institute a new government, laying its foundations, and organizing its powers as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.
Treason against the United States shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court. – The Constitution for the united States of America - Article 3 - Section 3 - Paragraph 1
Fact 32. This definition of treason does not cover the actions of the Officers of the States, or the Federal Union. A violation of their Oath of Office will be construed to be Treason against We the People, and will be prosecuted as such through the Common Law Courts – which are the validly existing Courts of the People. Even though the Common Law Courts are discredited, demonized, and many attempts have been made to destroy them by the very elected and appointed Officers who have sworn an Oath to protect and defend the Constitution, Common Law Courts are the validly authorized and empowered courts to which We the People, have granted sole jurisdiction over the People, their Property, and their Relationships, on with another.
Fact 33. Attempts to claim "I was just doing my job" are worthless. The same excuse was used at the Nuremberg trial and the offenders were still hung.
A Nation built on God’s Principles and Law
Fact 34. This nation, when established, was founded on the principles of the Bible. Our Founding Fathers were well versed in the teachings, doctrines, and concepts set forth in the Bible, which is our Book of Guidelines and Laws.
Fact 35. John Jay, the first Chief Justice of the united states Supreme Court, had this to say about God's Law.
"Uninspired commentators have dishonored the law, by ascribing to it, in certain cases, a sense and meaning which it did not authorize, and which our Savior rejected and reproved. "The inspired prophets, on the contrary, expressed the most exalted ideas of the law. They declare that the law of the Lord is perfect; that the statutes of the Lord are right; and that the commandment of the Lord is pure; that God would magnify the law and make it honorable."
Fact 36. The above facts are made abundantly clear and are fully verified by the statement in the Declaration of Independence concerning our Sovereignty.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.
Fact 37. The Declaration of Independence also states that Sovereign People institute governments to secure their rights. These rights are the right to Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness with which we are endowed by our Creator.
That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. . . .
Fact 38. The Sovereign People dwelling in America, authorized individuals, as delegates for the various States, to establish a Constitution which would provide a better place to live, to work, and to pursue our God given inalienable rights. We had just won a very costly war so that we could be Free and enjoy our Liberty. This was not an assignment of our Sovereignty, it was merely a joint use of our Sovereignty to control the environment in which we live.
"When this country achieved its independence the prerogatives of the crown devolved upon the people of the States. And this power still remains with them, except so far as they have delegated a portion of it to the Federal government." – Wheeler v. Smith, 9 How. 33
Fact 39. Using our Individual God given rights, we established, through our representatives, a system of laws that would, and should, protect us. These laws are designed to protect us not only from outside influences but also from the very entities that we created.
Sovereignty itself is, of course, not subject to law, for it is the author and source of law; but in our system, while sovereign powers are delegated to the agencies of government, sovereignty itself remains with the people, by whom and for whom all government exists and acts. And the law is the definition and limitation of power. – Yick Wo vs Hopkins and Woo Lee vs Hopkins (118 US S. Ct. 356)
Fact 40. The Supreme Court, in the last cited decision, says that Sovereignty is not subject to Law because it is the author and the source of the law. This does not mean that we, as Sovereign Individuals have the right to "run wild." We, as Sovereigns, live in a Republic and are subject to God's Laws, because God created us, and the creature, or entity, which is created, is always subject to the laws of the creator.
Fact 41. Note also, that the Supreme Court defined law as the "definition and limitation of power." This means that when laws are established, such as the Constitution, which is the law and mandate of the people, they are really created to define the limits of power that the created entity may enjoy. When God created man, he gave them power, authority, and dominion over all things on the earth, but He declared laws that defined the limits of our Sovereignty. We have all power and dominion here on earth, we have no power, authority, or dominion in God's Heavenly Kingdom.
Fact 42. We the People, as individuals, hold all of the Authority.
Fact 43. Even though We the People granted specific powers to the State and to the Federal we did not grant them sole use of those powers. This fact is attested to by the fact that We the People retained the right to continue to exercise those same powers by modifying or abolishing the entities that we had created and instituting new entities that we felt would most likely effect our Safety and Happiness.
Fact 44. Each State, with the explicit approval of the Sovereign Citizens of that State, was then permitted to enter into a Treaty called the Constitution FOR the united States of America. Thus, WE THE PEOPLE created the States and through them, the Federal entity. We established the Constitution to define the laws and limits of the powers granted to our creations. The Members of the Supreme Court recognized this fact when they stated that Sovereignty is the author and source of law.
God is only Sovereign
Fact 45. The use of the word FOR in the title to the Constitution indicates that the document was written FOR the benefit of the people and was not a document that created the government OF the United States.
Fact 46. When the States created the treaty organization, they could only grant such powers to the treaty organization as they themselves held, and even then, the States only granted such portions of their powers, as they were willing to grant. Therefore, the treaty organization, commonly referred to as the Federal Government, can use even less of the Sovereign power of the Sovereign Citizens of the States than what the States can.
Fact 47. No fictitious entity, i.e., government, corporation, partnership, contract, or other device created by the mind of man can be Sovereign. They are all subject to their creator, and therefore do not have all power. Because of this they cannot, in and of themselves, hold Sovereignty. What Sovereignty it may claim comes through the un-relinquished Sovereignty of its creators.
Fact 48. The entity referred to as "The United States of America" holds no Sovereignty of its own. It is a fictitious entity and cannot be Sovereign. Also, the entities that created it, the States, had no Sovereignty to grant. In both cases the sovereignty rests with the people, not the entity that the people created.
Only a Republic
Fact 49. Our Founding Fathers established a Republic, not a Democracy or an Oligarchy. We intend to keep our Republic. We do not want a Democracy or an Oligarchy, or, for that matter, any other form of government.
Fact 50. The Organic Constitution for the United States of America creates a Republican Form of government and guarantees that each State will also have a Republican Form of Government. Depending on where we live, we are to have the blessings of a Republican Form of government. In a Republic, God's Laws are supreme. In a Republic the People are Superior to the government because we have created the government.
Fact 51. We the People formed a republican form of government in each state and mandated that the federal treaty organization was responsible for the continuance of that form of government. The federal treaty organization has miserably failed in its adherence to our mandate.
Fact 52. The UNITED STATES CORPORATION, through unlawful and unconstitutional actions have assumed control of my State, and through mandates to my State has destroyed my Original Republican Form of Government and foisted upon me a Democracy, and it is now in the process of creating an Oligarchy.
Fact 53. In a Republic, the elected and appointed Officers are truly the Public Servants and have no power or authority over We the People because the Contract created by their Oath of Office is a one-way street and We the People cannot violate the terms and conditions of the Contract.
Fact 54. Any attempt by the government that was established by the Constitution to PROVIDE for the General Welfare is above and beyond the powers granted by the States and the People. The government is only authorized to PROMOTE the General Welfare, which can best be done by a passive attitude toward the actions of the We the People who control their own General Welfare through their private actions and unalienable rights. This clause was for the express purpose of limiting the ability of the federal entity to interfere with our businesses, our lives, and our families.
Fact 55. Promote and Provide is very different in their meaning. To illustrate the difference, if a person is asked to provide a salad for a picnic they accomplish the task by bringing a salad. If a person is asked to promote the salad at a picnic they accomplish the task by telling everyone how good the salad is. The Federal entity is to ONLY promote the General Welfare, not provide it.
The Key (#3) - 7th Amendment, No Court May Second-Guess (Review) A Decision of a Jury
From http://www.1215.org/lawnotes/lawnotes/common-law.htm
In true common law, there are no obligatory rules or precedents. A common law court (a court of record) has unlimited jurisdiction and is independent of government. All external factors are, at best, advisory, not obligatory.
The founding fathers understood all that. At his 1801 inaugural Thomas Jefferson said, "Sometimes it is said that man cannot be trusted with the government of himself. Can he, then, be trusted with the government of others? Or have we found angels in the form of kings to govern him? Let history answer this question." And he wrote, "I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves: and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion." [Letter, September 28, 1820.]
The self-correcting temporary imperfections of common law were preferrable to the entrenched imperfections of legislated written laws. That is why they chose the common law as the law superior to statutes and all other forms of law. They expressed that choice through the Constitution's 7th Amendment which essentially says that no court may second-guess (review) a decision of a jury.

The attached document is worthy of a good "look-over". It is also available to view on the Republic Keepers website at: http://republickeepers.squarespace.com/storage/First%20Estate%20Comprehensive%20Diagram.pdf
Although the chart was created as a guide and educational tool for the republic State of Texas, you can insert any republic in the place of Texas.
Notice the following on the chart:
"The First Estate is established by Formal Compact between Sovereign Souls."
and
"Pledges to Protect and Defend Each Other."
The Key (#1) - The Essence of Common Law
"Custom and usage since time immemorial" is generally what is behind the definition of common law. There is no singular source of the common law as one would expect with statutes made by a legislature.
Having said that, consider also that law follows physical power.
Let's pretend that you reset your brain almost to zero--you have no knowledge but your natural knowledge of good and evil, your natural intelligence, and a language with which to communicate with others. You are in your sovereign capacity, accountable to no higher authority, but acknowledging the sovereignty of others and that you may not diminish the sovereignty of others. You are at peace.
Along comes another being like you who causes you pain for which you want fair compensation.
At this point you have a choice: you can do immediate battle, or you can round up other like beings (we suggest 12 of them, a jury) and ask them to join you in battle. If you can get all of them to agree that you have a just cause, then it would be you and them against the accused (you+them=13 against 1).
They, not having been present at the time of the crime, being fair minded, demand that you justify your request (provide the rule and prove your facts).
You make your presentation, and the accused makes his counter-presentation. After the presentations (the trial) the jury retires to cogitate over two questions.
The first question: Is the rule valid? If, in the opinion of the jury your rule is not valid (jury nullification), then they will refuse to join you (a not-guilty verdict). But, if they, in their independent sovereign judgment agree with your rule, then they move on to the second question.
The second question: Did the actions of the accused violate the rule. If, in the opinion of the jury he did not, then they will refuse to join you (a not-guilty verdict). But, if they, in their independent sovereign judgment agree that your rule was violated, then they will join you (a guilty verdict).
If the jury's decision is split, the issue remains unresolved, and a new trial may be needed with a new jury.
If the jury's decision is unanimous, whether "guilty" or "not guilty", the question is decided, and you now have 13 vs. 1. Depending on the verdict, the "1" would be either the accuser or the accused.
Whoever lost the case would be foolish to do physical battle against 13 opponents. Thus, through this process, we bring peace to the realm.
An accuser always has jurisdiction to accuse. The accused always has jurisdiction to defend. And, either one may grant jurisdiction to a jury to intervene.
That is the bare essence of the common law.
Anything more than that is an attempt to "improve" the process. However, so-called "improvements" often are imperfect.
Although there is no singular authoritative source of common law, much has been written over the past thousand years. Many have come to respect the thoughts and opinions of those who preceded them. Having respect does not mean to quit thinking. Education is the process of learning about prior conclusions. Those conclusions are a valuable guide to use to arrive at our own conclusions.
In true common law, there are no obligatory rules or precedents. A common law court (a court of record) has unlimited jurisdiction and is independent of government. All external factors are, at best, advisory, not obligatory.

The Fundamental Law of Life, Liberty and Property (including Common Law) is the foundation on which the Constitution is based. As a result, the Constitution requires the USA to never deny the common law its judicial power.***
A statutory or constitutional court (whether it be an appellate or supreme court) may not second guess the judgment of a common law court of record. The Supreme Court of the USA acknowledges the common law as supreme: Ex parte Watkins, 3 Pet., at 202-203. [cited by SCHNECKLOTH v. BUSTAMONTE, 412 U.S. 218, 255 (1973)]
