    Study Notes

    Understanding Your Choice of Law and Jurisdiction in Court

    • When going to court, individuals have the option to choose which system of law they want to have jurisdiction over them.
    • In order to retain constitutional rights, it is important to enter a judicial "court of record" under common law rather than a legislative administrative court.
    • Traffic courts, such as county justice courts or city municipal courts, are actually administrative courts that administer law based on contract law and traffic codes.
    • In administrative courts, the burden of proof is on the defendant, and if there is no dispute over the facts, the defendant is presumed guilty.
    • To stay out of administrative traffic courts, one must challenge jurisdiction by reserving their rights and proving their identity as a natural person.
    • Administrative courts only deal with legal fictions and cannot bring actions against natural people.
    • It is important to be aware of the legal significance of the words used in court, as certain terms have been redefined in statutes, such as "person" and "individual."
    • By properly identifying oneself as a natural man or woman, it is possible to remove personam jurisdiction from an administrative court.
    • The officer who issued a citation represents a fictitious public entity, and in order for the officer to come against a natural person, there must be an injured party or corpus delecti.
    • If there is no injured party or corpus delecti, there is no cause of action or claim, and the case can be dismissed.
    • Rebutting the court's assumption that one is a "driver" places the burden of proof on the state or city municipality to prove the existence of a contract or a sworn complaint.
    • Understanding one's Natural Right to travel on roadways and in what context this right is upheld can help individuals navigate traffic stops.
