[00:00.000 --> 00:05.480] This news brief brought to you by the International News Net. [00:05.480 --> 00:10.320] Afghan police Monday arrested Kabul's Mayor Abdul Ahad Sahibi after he was convicted in [00:10.320 --> 00:11.320] absentia. [00:11.320 --> 00:17.680] Sahibi is alleged to have received a $10,000 bribe for setting up a contract to pave Kabul [00:17.680 --> 00:21.480] city streets and for skimming funds from the project. [00:21.480 --> 00:24.560] He was sentenced to four years in prison. [00:24.560 --> 00:30.120] In Peshawar, Pakistan, at least 10 people were killed and 45 wounded Monday. [00:30.120 --> 00:33.880] On Saturday, an explosion in Peshawar left four people dead. [00:33.880 --> 00:38.920] Hundreds have lost their lives in terrorist attacks in Pakistan, starting in October when [00:38.920 --> 00:44.920] the Pakistani army launched an offensive against pro-Taliban militants. [00:44.920 --> 00:50.080] Afghanistan Finance Minister Omar Zakhilwal said Sunday an estimated $10 million a day [00:50.080 --> 00:52.480] is smuggled out of Afghanistan. [00:52.480 --> 00:58.560] Zakhilwal said, quote, corruption is a cancer, a disease, it has destroyed the reputation [00:58.560 --> 01:02.120] of Afghanistan. [01:02.120 --> 01:06.980] The UK Guardian says Goldman Sachs is set to ignite a storm of controversy in the new [01:06.980 --> 01:12.960] year when it reveals that its bankers are on course to collect pay and bonuses worth [01:12.960 --> 01:20.920] $19 billion, despite 2009 being the worst year for the US economy in 30 years. [01:20.920 --> 01:25.720] The Guardian cites City of London financial sources as saying Goldman's projected pay [01:25.720 --> 01:32.080] and bonuses is based on figures from Thompson Financial published Friday, which show the [01:32.080 --> 01:38.680] investment bank is expected to generate net income of around $45 billion. [01:38.680 --> 01:44.760] Analysts predict 43% of that figure will be set aside for distribution to the bank's [01:44.760 --> 01:47.040] 31,700 employees. [01:47.040 --> 01:51.840] London has enjoyed a bumper year thanks to booming debt markets, a recovery in the oil [01:51.840 --> 01:54.640] price and stocks. [01:54.640 --> 02:00.800] IRS officials have sold off thousands of acres of an impoverished Indian reservation in what [02:00.800 --> 02:07.840] the tribe claims to be a shameful and unprecedented breach of laws protecting Native Americans. [02:07.840 --> 02:14.440] 7,100 acres of Sioux ancestral land in South Dakota was auctioned off Thursday by the IRS [02:14.440 --> 02:19.920] to help pay off more than $3 million in unpaid taxes, penalties and interest. [02:19.920 --> 02:26.680] The land, part of the tribe's original reservation established in an 1868 treaty, was originally [02:26.680 --> 02:31.520] held by the federal government in trust for the tribe, however it was later divided up [02:31.520 --> 02:36.980] between individual tribal members, some of whom sold it to non-Indians, putting it outside [02:36.980 --> 02:39.400] the tribe's legal jurisdiction. [02:39.400 --> 02:44.840] The tribe bought it back in 1998, but claims the Bureau of Indian Affairs failed to put [02:44.840 --> 02:48.080] the land back into trust, which would have protected it. [02:48.080 --> 02:53.600] The tribe claims it never paid taxes because it had been incorrectly told by federal officials [02:53.600 --> 02:56.680] that recognized tribes were exempt. [02:56.680 --> 03:09.120] You are listening to the Rule Law Radio Network at RuleLawRadio.com, live free speech talk [03:09.120 --> 03:10.120] radio at its best.

[04:44.960 --> 04:50.520] John Bush, he's gonna be starting with Kathryn Bleich in the mornings, coming the first of [04:50.520 --> 04:55.520] the year, starting off brand new year, brand new shows. [04:55.520 --> 05:00.960] She's gonna be joining us with Kathryn Bleich, starting in the beginning of the year, Monday, [05:00.960 --> 05:04.960] Wednesday, Friday, 7 to 10 a.m. [05:04.960 --> 05:09.880] We also have more new hosts coming on the network to be announced, and you guys are [05:09.880 --> 05:13.960] gonna just have to hang on the edge of your seat for that one until we get everything [05:13.960 --> 05:18.760] squared away as far as the name of the shows and all that, but John Bush and Kathryn Bleich [05:18.760 --> 05:22.320] will be starting, the name of their show is going to be Rise Up Radio. [05:22.320 --> 05:29.080] So Rise Up with Kathryn Bleich and John Bush, 7 to 10 a.m., Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays. [05:29.080 --> 05:31.680] Most likely they'll be going five days a week, we're gonna start off Monday, Wednesdays and [05:31.680 --> 05:33.880] Fridays for now. [05:33.880 --> 05:39.540] And also, just an announcement about what's gonna be coming up this week. [05:39.540 --> 05:44.800] We're gonna have Mike Maris, I know a lot of you out there have been emailing me, asking [05:44.800 --> 05:48.320] me about him, when his material's gonna be ready. [05:48.320 --> 05:55.200] Mike Maris, the credit card guy, who has won, I believe, six lawsuits in federal courts, [05:55.200 --> 06:01.960] beat these credit card companies, and won many cases settled out of court as well. [06:01.960 --> 06:04.720] His methods are proven to work. [06:04.720 --> 06:10.120] He walks the walk, and you can look up the cause numbers for those of you out there who [06:10.120 --> 06:11.800] want to actually see the cases. [06:11.800 --> 06:19.200] He'll be our guest on Friday night, and yes, by then, we will have a link with PayPal button, [06:19.200 --> 06:20.640] et cetera. [06:20.640 --> 06:24.240] Everything will be set up on our website here at Rule of Law Radio. [06:24.240 --> 06:30.720] We've got an exclusive with him right now to sell his materials, to sell his package. [06:30.720 --> 06:35.040] He's gonna be selling it for 150 bucks, which is a screaming deal. [06:35.040 --> 06:41.640] He's slashed his price in half from 300 down to 150, and he will also be available for [06:41.640 --> 06:46.800] private consultation for a reasonable hourly wage as well. [06:46.800 --> 06:52.920] So the good news, Mike Maris, and he may even be joining the network as a host. [06:52.920 --> 06:57.920] We'll have to see about that, but at the least, he will be back for a full four hours this [06:57.920 --> 07:03.340] coming Friday, and he'll be able to purchase his materials this week, and also an update [07:03.340 --> 07:06.040] on the seminar materials. [07:06.040 --> 07:10.540] As you all know, Randy and I have been working very hard dealing with legal documents and [07:10.540 --> 07:19.120] even writing legislation to be introduced in Oklahoma and Texas at the request of some [07:19.120 --> 07:22.720] legislators who came to us and asked us to do this. [07:22.720 --> 07:24.400] So we've been working very hard on that. [07:24.400 --> 07:28.360] I got back to working on the audio for the seminar over the weekend. [07:28.360 --> 07:35.120] I'm sorry it is taking so long, but it is a huge job, very huge job. [07:35.120 --> 07:40.280] There were a lot of questions all throughout the whole seminar. [07:40.280 --> 07:46.200] Basically there never even was a designated Q&A session like how we wanted it to be. [07:46.200 --> 07:50.880] People were jumping in with questions because they were so excited, which is a good thing [07:50.880 --> 07:57.080] for the information, but the downside of that is that it's taking me a very, very long time [07:57.080 --> 08:02.440] to comb through all the audio with a fine-tooth comb and master all the little tiny clips. [08:02.440 --> 08:06.160] So what we're going to do, because we want to get this ready for you guys so that you [08:06.160 --> 08:10.960] can give the seminar packages to each other for Christmas, for Christmas presents, Christmas [08:10.960 --> 08:21.240] gifts, I am going to have day one and the first two sessions of day two ready for download [08:21.240 --> 08:25.680] by this Thursday, hopefully Friday the latest. [08:25.680 --> 08:28.840] I would like to get it, I believe I'll have it ready for Thursday. [08:28.840 --> 08:34.360] So you'll be able to purchase the seminar materials, 250 bucks. [08:34.360 --> 08:36.280] You'll get Eddie's book. [08:36.280 --> 08:41.400] You'll get Randy's documents and my documents, lawsuits and criminal complaints. [08:41.400 --> 08:46.960] And Eddie should have motions for dismissal for a variety of different traffic issues [08:46.960 --> 08:47.960] by then as well. [08:47.960 --> 08:52.360] He's been working very hard on the motions for dismissal, all for the very low price [08:52.360 --> 08:56.720] of $250, you get the audio and the DVD of the video. [08:56.720 --> 09:02.160] Now obviously the video is not going to be ready by this week and half, well little more [09:02.160 --> 09:06.960] than half, about two-thirds of day two will not be ready by this Thursday either, but [09:06.960 --> 09:10.200] you will get that as soon as it's ready. [09:10.200 --> 09:14.800] So we're taking, we're going to be taking the orders and then put a PayPal button up [09:14.800 --> 09:18.960] later this evening or tomorrow so I can start taking the advanced orders and everything [09:18.960 --> 09:23.200] will be ready for download for Thursday and when the other stuff is ready y'all will get [09:23.200 --> 09:25.160] the rest of that as well. [09:25.160 --> 09:30.160] You will also be able to purchase the seminar materials through Brave New Books. [09:30.160 --> 09:37.180] Talk to Harlan Dietrich yesterday, he does DVD duplicating as well and so for folks here [09:37.180 --> 09:44.480] in Austin who actually want to get the audio and video and the files, the PDF files and [09:44.480 --> 09:51.600] Word files on DVD you'll be able to purchase that hard copy, well you won't get paper of [09:51.600 --> 09:55.480] course because it's very expensive to print up all the seminar materials, Eddie's book [09:55.480 --> 10:02.320] is like 200 pages, but at any rate you will get the files of the book and all the other [10:02.320 --> 10:09.560] files on the DVD with the audio and the video at Brave New Books and by this weekend we [10:09.560 --> 10:15.080] should have DVDs of the audio that I have finished mastering up until this point, that [10:15.080 --> 10:22.120] will be ready and available at Brave New Books later on this week. [10:22.120 --> 10:26.760] Speaking of Brave New Books, everybody make sure and get out to the G. Edward Griffin [10:26.760 --> 10:38.200] event this Thursday, that is at the AT&T Executive Conference Center at 1900 University Avenue, [10:38.200 --> 10:47.040] just two blocks east of Brave New Books, G. Edward Griffin of course the author of A Creature [10:47.040 --> 10:53.240] from Jekyll Island talking about the Federal Reserve, he will be giving a talk and a book [10:53.240 --> 10:58.640] signing at the AT&T Executive Conference Center, actually I believe the talk is there and then [10:58.640 --> 11:05.080] book signing at Brave New Books I believe, at any rate that's this Thursday at 7 p.m. [11:05.080 --> 11:10.240] Everybody get out there to see the event and please give some donations because it's not [11:10.240 --> 11:17.680] cheap, such a huge turnout is expected that Harlan rented the venue at the AT&T Executive [11:17.680 --> 11:24.240] Conference Center and so he is going to have a donation jar there so everybody make sure [11:24.240 --> 11:30.400] and give some donations for the Brave New Books G. Edward Griffin event to help pay [11:30.400 --> 11:38.240] for the venue, he can't really charge a cover charge but he does need your donations to [11:38.240 --> 11:45.480] pay for the venue so these people in the community are really sacrificing a lot to get you guys [11:45.480 --> 11:50.740] the message out there, a lot of people in the community are self-sacrificing a huge [11:50.740 --> 11:57.200] degree to bring you guys and gals this very valuable information so make sure you all [11:57.200 --> 12:03.320] get out to the AT&T Conference Center 1900 University Avenue two blocks east of Brave [12:03.320 --> 12:09.640] New Books and give a donation, a generous donation to Harlan at the event to help pay [12:09.640 --> 12:12.000] for the conference center. [12:12.000 --> 12:19.920] So now on to business of the show tonight, we are going to well and wait before we move [12:19.920 --> 12:28.200] on I have a couple of other announcements at the request of listeners, there are new [12:28.200 --> 12:35.360] donation buttons on the donation page, there is now a button for a donation to Eddie for [12:35.360 --> 12:41.840] traffic issues and also wait a minute, wait a minute Randy, you're not going to believe [12:41.840 --> 12:49.600] this, somehow, I don't know how it happened, it's a miracle but they're actually appeared [12:49.600 --> 12:58.640] on the donation page a donation button for Randy's Beer Fund, it's finally there, it's [12:58.640 --> 13:03.680] finally there folks, okay there is a button for donation to Randy's Beer Fund and there [13:03.680 --> 13:10.400] is a donation button for donation to Eddie because he has been helping people offline [13:10.400 --> 13:17.120] quite a bit with their traffic issues and you know the more we spend time with people [13:17.120 --> 13:24.040] on these things the less time we have to actually go out and make a living so please give a [13:24.040 --> 13:27.000] sizable donation to Eddie and to Randy's Beer Fund. [13:27.000 --> 13:34.840] And I want to make an offer for anybody who donates to my Beer Fund, I will donate everything [13:34.840 --> 13:39.440] you donate to my Beer Fund to something else that needs it more than my Beer Fund. [13:39.440 --> 13:44.440] Oh well maybe we could get you a couple of beers Randy, people want to buy you a beer [13:44.440 --> 13:45.440] come on. [13:45.440 --> 13:47.440] That gives me a headache anyway. [13:47.440 --> 13:49.440] Then why do you want a beer fund? [13:49.440 --> 13:52.440] Well it's the excessive amount Randy that does that. [13:52.440 --> 13:57.440] Are you kidding me, the guy's a lightweight, he drinks a beer and a half and he passes out. [13:57.440 --> 13:59.440] Yeah you're right about that. [13:59.440 --> 14:03.440] He's the biggest lightweight, I can drink him under the table in about five minutes. [14:03.440 --> 14:10.440] Anyways, so donation to Eddie, donation to Randy's Beer Fund, of course the Rule of Law [14:10.440 --> 14:19.440] Radio Network still needs your donations and of course 90.1 Legal Fund needs your donations [14:19.440 --> 14:25.440] because we may be facing some stiff legal fees upcoming for 90.1. [14:25.440 --> 14:28.440] And Eddie is helping with 90.1 as well. [14:28.440 --> 14:36.440] It appears that these rogue SEC agents have made similar mistakes, it's almost the exact [14:36.440 --> 14:44.440] same situation as with the traffic code and so we haven't delved in enough uncovering [14:44.440 --> 14:48.440] and unraveling all of that to discuss it on the air right now but just leave it to say [14:48.440 --> 14:53.440] that just from a preliminary glance that Eddie and I took last night over certain sections [14:53.440 --> 14:58.440] of the code that Eddie and I were looking at, I was looking at it myself and I was like [14:58.440 --> 15:02.440] it looks like they did this wrong, this wrong and that wrong and this other thing wrong, [15:02.440 --> 15:06.440] et cetera, et cetera down the line so called up Eddie and I said Eddie, is this right, [15:06.440 --> 15:11.440] am I evaluating this correctly and Eddie said pretty much yes, I was right so we're going [15:11.440 --> 15:16.440] to be looking into more of that as well to help the operators of 90.1. [15:16.440 --> 15:20.440] So things are looking good, things are looking up, seminar materials at least partially will [15:20.440 --> 15:26.440] be ready this week, so will Mike Mears' materials and Mike Mears coming on and we've got a [15:26.440 --> 15:31.440] donation to all these different funds going on as well. [15:31.440 --> 15:36.440] So tonight what we're going to do since people have also requested that Eddie have his own [15:36.440 --> 15:42.440] show which I was agreeable to that as well but Eddie does not want to have his own show, [15:42.440 --> 15:45.440] he just kind of doesn't really have time, he's already doing the show with us three nights [15:45.440 --> 15:51.440] a week so what we're going to do instead is one of the nights of this week either Monday [15:51.440 --> 15:56.440] or Thursday night, we are not going to designate Friday night because that's when we have guests [15:56.440 --> 16:01.440] frequently and deal with a lot of issues but either Monday or Thursday night will be [16:01.440 --> 16:05.440] designated Eddie night and the three of us will still be on but we'll designate either [16:05.440 --> 16:11.440] Monday or Thursday night to traffic issues and municipal issues and take calls on those [16:11.440 --> 16:19.440] specifically so listeners we're going to take a poll, send your answer to Eddie and let [16:19.440 --> 16:23.440] him know because I'm already dealing with a bazillion things right now that are on my [16:23.440 --> 16:28.440] plate so let Eddie know which night you want to be Eddie night on rule of law radio either [16:28.440 --> 16:30.440] Monday or Thursday. [16:30.440 --> 16:34.440] Yes please don't set it up for Friday because Friday is when we try to have guests on with [16:34.440 --> 16:36.440] useful information for everybody. [16:36.440 --> 16:41.440] Yes that's right and when we don't have guests on Friday of course we will have open phone [16:41.440 --> 16:46.440] lines, open line, open line, open phone lines on Fridays to take questions on a variety [16:46.440 --> 16:51.440] of issues, traffic included but either Monday or Thursday will be designated Eddie night [16:51.440 --> 16:55.440] so please let him know and tonight we're going to deal with municipal and traffic issues [16:55.440 --> 17:00.440] when we get back on the other side. [17:00.440 --> 17:05.440] They wrapped themselves in the American flag and they talked about preserving American [17:05.440 --> 17:11.440] heritage and principles and all the while they're working to merge us into a new world [17:11.440 --> 17:16.440] order where our sovereignty would be destroyed and we'll lose all connection with their [17:16.440 --> 17:18.440] American heritage. [17:18.440 --> 17:23.440] Author and lecturer G. Edward Griffin will be in Austin on Thursday December 10th to [17:23.440 --> 17:24.440] give a free lecture.

[18:01.440 --> 18:14.440] Music [18:14.440 --> 18:39.440] Okay, Slope and Slippery Sliding, that's what they would like to put us on, the Slippery [18:39.440 --> 18:40.440] Slidy slope. [18:40.440 --> 18:45.440] But as it turns out they're the ones that are on the Slippery Slidy slope, not us. [18:45.440 --> 18:47.440] They're the ones breaking the law, not us. [18:47.440 --> 18:51.440] They're the ones trying to pull the wool over our eyes and lie to us. [18:51.440 --> 18:53.440] And we're finally figuring it all out. [18:53.440 --> 18:59.440] Me with FCC, I'm coming over their code, coming over their law, coming over their case law, [18:59.440 --> 19:03.440] I'm finding out everything that they do that's wrong and illegal just like Eddie's done with [19:03.440 --> 19:06.440] the traffic code, just like Randy's done with due process. [19:06.440 --> 19:13.440] So we're going to go over municipal stuff, municipal court dealings tonight with Eddie [19:13.440 --> 19:17.440] and also we'll take your calls, 512-646-1984. [19:17.440 --> 19:23.440] So Randy, you wanted to ask Eddie some questions and set up a scenario of judges in [19:23.440 --> 19:25.440] municipal court. [19:25.440 --> 19:31.440] Yes, I've had a number of people call me about, they go to court and they have these [19:31.440 --> 19:37.440] problems, they don't know what to do, they get bum-fuzzled. [19:37.440 --> 19:44.440] And I was kind of hoping Eddie would go through what to expect when you get to court, [19:44.440 --> 19:53.440] what to expect the judge to do or the prosecutor to do and how to handle them when they do that. [19:53.440 --> 20:00.440] Well, short of the Eddie method, which would usually be a rope in a tree, you know. [20:00.440 --> 20:02.440] It really just depends. [20:02.440 --> 20:07.440] The problem with municipal courts is that these things are not tailored to any one event [20:07.440 --> 20:11.440] because in each case you're dealing with a different set of people. [20:11.440 --> 20:18.440] They all have a different attitude, a different method of acting toward those that are in the court. [20:18.440 --> 20:23.440] So you kind of have to gear what you do in response to the venue at hand. [20:23.440 --> 20:29.440] That being said, however, there are certain things that you will do no matter where you are [20:29.440 --> 20:31.440] and who you're dealing with. [20:31.440 --> 20:35.440] And one of those, of course, is your recorder. [20:35.440 --> 20:38.440] Take it with you, always. [20:38.440 --> 20:39.440] Okay? [20:39.440 --> 20:41.440] It is your best friend. [20:41.440 --> 20:43.440] Don't ever be without it. [20:43.440 --> 20:48.440] And if you have a judge that does not want you to have a recorder in their court that they can see, [20:48.440 --> 20:52.440] well, then put it somewhere where they can't see it. [20:52.440 --> 20:56.440] But simple fact is don't go in that courtroom without it. [20:56.440 --> 21:00.440] Now, there are several things that you're going to run into in these courts. [21:00.440 --> 21:06.440] The first one and the most obvious is there is no court reporter. [21:06.440 --> 21:10.440] You have a right to be in a court of record. [21:10.440 --> 21:16.440] So one of the first things you want to have in your hand is going to be a motion for a recorder, [21:16.440 --> 21:21.440] which you should have filed long before you ever got to court. [21:21.440 --> 21:27.440] But if necessary, you can demand that it be done right then. [21:27.440 --> 21:31.440] And so basically be prepared for that. [21:31.440 --> 21:37.440] O'Connor has one, and we're going to go ahead and Randy's probably got one too, don't you, Randy? [21:37.440 --> 21:42.440] If you'll look in my blanks, there's a blank request for court reporter. [21:42.440 --> 21:46.440] I think it's under Rule 206. [21:46.440 --> 21:49.440] The motion is a 206 motion. [21:49.440 --> 21:54.440] It's a different court reporter or 206 motion, which is the same thing. [21:54.440 --> 21:55.440] Yeah. [21:55.440 --> 22:02.440] The point being that when the judge starts doing things the judge isn't supposed to be doing, [22:02.440 --> 22:04.440] there's a record, okay? [22:04.440 --> 22:07.440] That's why the judges in these courts don't want a record, [22:07.440 --> 22:13.440] is because they are doing things that they know will get them in trouble if they're caught. [22:13.440 --> 22:20.440] So we're going to try and eliminate that little problem by giving them a record whether they want one or not. [22:20.440 --> 22:24.440] Now, the other thing you're going to notice is that the courts also, [22:24.440 --> 22:27.440] if they can't get the officer there on time, [22:27.440 --> 22:32.440] they will do their dead-level best to have a continuance for the state. [22:32.440 --> 22:35.440] However, you can object to that as well. [22:35.440 --> 22:39.440] If the state is not ready for trial and you receive no prior notice, [22:39.440 --> 22:45.440] you are entitled to a dismissal, demanded, all right? [22:45.440 --> 22:49.440] One of the folks that I've been helping this past week, [22:49.440 --> 22:54.440] there is one word you can use in court that is absolutely essential, [22:54.440 --> 22:59.440] and any time anyone in the court is acting outside of what they're supposed to be, [22:59.440 --> 23:03.440] that word is to be used, and that word is objection. [23:03.440 --> 23:04.440] Do it often. [23:04.440 --> 23:14.440] Do it as much as is necessary to make your point that you know that the judge is violating the rules and you take exception to it, okay? [23:14.440 --> 23:18.440] The judge is going to pull all kinds of dirty tricks, [23:18.440 --> 23:28.440] and this is exactly the reason why I asked at the seminar that if there's folks in your area that can do it, [23:28.440 --> 23:31.440] get them to help you be a court watcher. [23:31.440 --> 23:38.440] Go to court for others, have people go with you so that there are witnesses to the acts. [23:38.440 --> 23:46.440] I'm working on all the affidavits and everything that you can have ready to hand out to these court watchers [23:46.440 --> 23:55.440] so that they can sign the affidavit that you're going to attach to your criminal complaint against the judge when the judge does not obey the law. [23:55.440 --> 24:02.440] Basically, we are going to attempt to make their life a living heck in more ways than one, [24:02.440 --> 24:07.440] but there are rules that they must follow, and when they don't want to follow those rules, [24:07.440 --> 24:15.440] we have a right to a remedy for that, and this is one of the methods we're going to have to use to do it. [24:15.440 --> 24:29.440] So given that, that's two things so far. Get your court reporter and make darn sure that you've got your – what was the other one I was just talking about? [24:29.440 --> 24:30.440] Recorder. [24:30.440 --> 24:32.440] Your recorder, yes. [24:32.440 --> 24:34.440] And you've got your affidavits for your court watchers. [24:34.440 --> 24:36.440] Oh, wait a minute. Let me interject something here. [24:36.440 --> 24:48.440] Speaking of recording, you can get these little pen cameras from Diganet, D-I-G-A-N-E-T dot net, and there's different styles. [24:48.440 --> 24:50.440] You can pick them up on eBay, too. [24:50.440 --> 24:54.440] It looks just like a pen. It's got a little pinhole camera in it, and it records audio, too. [24:54.440 --> 25:00.440] You can get two gigs, six gigs, or eight gigs, and they're very relatively inexpensive for the price. [25:00.440 --> 25:10.440] Now, for women, this doesn't really work very well because women, for the most part, don't wear dress shirts with pockets that you put a pen in. [25:10.440 --> 25:16.440] Women's – especially dress clothes don't have pockets on the front of their shirts. It's just not a women's style. [25:16.440 --> 25:21.440] So what can a woman do? What are you going to do? Stick it behind your ear, then the camera's going to be facing down. [25:21.440 --> 25:25.440] You need it to be facing where your face is facing for camera and all this sort of thing. [25:25.440 --> 25:35.440] So I found on eBay – get this, and you can look it up on eBay – they have these little iPod or MP – I guess they're made to look like iPods. [25:35.440 --> 25:41.440] They're MP3 players that are shaped like an apple with a bite out of it, just like the Apple Insignia, the Macintosh Apple Insignia, [25:41.440 --> 25:48.440] and that you wear around your neck because people wear their MP3 players around their neck, like when they're jogging and stuff. [25:48.440 --> 25:54.440] And so you wear it as a necklace, which is perfect for female because you need to either – [25:54.440 --> 25:59.440] so these little hidden camera recorder things, you need to either have them like as earrings or necklace or some kind of jewelry [25:59.440 --> 26:03.440] or a headband or something around your face, around your neck, around your head. [26:03.440 --> 26:11.440] And like with men, the little pens work, but that doesn't work with women. So this is perfect because it's got a camera and it records audio. [26:11.440 --> 26:19.440] It's just like the pen, eight gigs, and it's very, very cheap. They're like 60 bucks on eBay. So I'm going to get me one. [26:19.440 --> 26:24.440] The colors are kind of weird. There's like a weird off avocado green and a pink. That's the only colors I can find. [26:24.440 --> 26:32.440] So I'm going to paint mine black. But at any rate, I just wanted to interject that it's becoming very inexpensive these days to get high quality – [26:32.440 --> 26:39.440] Jerry got a pen, and we tested it out the other night. You would not believe the immaculate detail of the video. [26:39.440 --> 26:46.440] I mean, it's like unbelievable. It looks fantastic. So everybody needs to get either one of these pens or women. [26:46.440 --> 26:51.440] You need to get one of these iPod players. And it is a real iPod player, too. I mean, it is a real MP3 player. [26:51.440 --> 26:55.440] You can listen and use it. So anyway, I just want to interject that. So go ahead, Eddie. [26:55.440 --> 27:02.440] All right. There are several different ways to do it. You can have it – you know, the women, they can clip it to their purse [27:02.440 --> 27:08.440] and set the purse on the table so it faces the judge or whoever it is and so on and so forth. [27:08.440 --> 27:14.440] There's lots of different ways to do it, but something that's unobtrusive and less likely to be noticed would probably be best [27:14.440 --> 27:18.440] if you're in a court where the judge doesn't want you to have it. [27:18.440 --> 27:23.440] Okay. What do you do when the judge asks you to turn the recorder off? [27:23.440 --> 27:31.440] Well, the first thing that I would do is I'd say objection. Rule 2.0 – what is it, 3? 2.0 – [27:31.440 --> 27:33.440] 2.03 paragraph B. [27:33.440 --> 27:39.440] Yeah. Paragraph B code of criminal procedure guarantees that the court must respect the rights of a free press, [27:39.440 --> 27:46.440] which means recording equipment is allowed in the courtroom. If the judge doesn't like it, have her take it up with the legislature. [27:46.440 --> 27:55.440] That's their favorite words to use on us, right? So if the legislature's said that they have to respect the free press, [27:55.440 --> 28:02.440] put a press card and stick it to your shirt. Who cares? Either way, you're allowed to have a recording. [28:02.440 --> 28:15.440] So whether the judge likes it or not, you can try to do it, object to it when they say no, tell them why out of 2.03 sub-item B, and go from there. [28:15.440 --> 28:20.440] And if the judge insists that you turn it off anyway, do you think it would be a good idea to turn it off [28:20.440 --> 28:22.440] so you don't get thrown in jail and held in contempt? [28:22.440 --> 28:29.440] Well, until they actually say they intend to hold you in contempt, then I would just give them the opportunity to keep saying no. [28:29.440 --> 28:30.440] Right. Okay. [28:30.440 --> 28:33.440] In the meantime, I'm going to leave it on until that comes out of their mouth. [28:33.440 --> 28:34.440] Right. [28:34.440 --> 28:44.440] But in each case, I will object. In each case, I will have them note it that you are violating the law associated with the duties of your office. [28:44.440 --> 28:49.440] And there will be a whole other set of charges associated with that. [28:49.440 --> 28:54.440] Now, I just want to interject one thing here. We're talking about municipal court here. [28:54.440 --> 29:05.440] I would not recommend trying to pull something like this off in federal court or a federal building because they will not let you bring any electronics of any kind whatsoever into federal buildings. [29:05.440 --> 29:08.440] Randy and I went through this when we were in Philadelphia. [29:08.440 --> 29:15.440] And they do have scanning equipment. Even if you turn it off, they can tell. [29:15.440 --> 29:22.440] They can scan for electronic equipment, and they can tell, and you have to turn in your cell phone and everything. [29:22.440 --> 29:37.440] So I would highly recommend not to try to sneak in hidden pin cameras and things like this into federal building, federal court, because they will catch it and may not turn out to be such good results. [29:37.440 --> 29:43.440] Okay. We'll be back on the other side. We're going to talk more about how to deal with municipal court dealings. [29:43.440 --> 29:47.440] We've got Jim from Texas. We see you on the line. Just sit tight, Jim. [29:47.440 --> 29:55.440] We will get your call when we come back. At some point in this segment, we'll get your call. [29:55.440 --> 30:00.440] This is the rule of law. [30:00.440 --> 30:03.440] This is Randall Kelton from Rule of Law Radio. [30:03.440 --> 30:07.440] Many of you have been helped by the informative programming on 90.1. [30:07.440 --> 30:09.440] Now, 90.1 needs your help. [30:09.440 --> 30:23.440] Operators of 90.1 are in a legal battle with the FCC to stay on the air, and they need letters from you listeners testifying that 90.1 serves the public interest by bringing truthful news and information that no other station does. [30:23.440 --> 30:29.440] Brave New Books is not associated with the Austin Micros, but they have agreed to help by collecting your letters. [30:29.440 --> 30:32.440] Please drop off or mail your letters, too. [30:32.440 --> 30:42.440] Brave New Books, attention, Austin Micros, 90.1, 1904 Guadalupe, Suite B, Austin, Texas, 78705. [30:42.440 --> 30:45.440] There are also form letters at the bookstore that folks can just sign. [30:45.440 --> 30:51.440] Please help keep 90.1 on the air by getting your letters to Brave New Books as soon as possible. [30:51.440 --> 31:00.440] Let the FCC know that 90.1 serves the public interest by bringing truthful news and information that can't be found anywhere else. [31:00.440 --> 31:13.440] Yeah, I got a warrant, and I'm going to sub them to the government to prosecute them. [31:13.440 --> 31:17.440] Okay. [31:17.440 --> 31:45.440] I'm sorry. [31:45.440 --> 31:47.440] So how the hell did he get the presidency? [31:47.440 --> 31:50.440] That's why we have a warrant for him. [31:50.440 --> 31:52.440] Everybody listen carefully. [31:52.440 --> 31:54.440] Listen to the words of the issues passing. [31:54.440 --> 32:16.440] Okay, we are back. [32:16.440 --> 32:20.440] We're talking about municipal court dealings tonight. [32:20.440 --> 32:24.440] So go ahead, Eddie, you're about to go and make an announcement. [32:24.440 --> 32:28.440] Yeah, the other thing is, is Don Beckham has gone out to Yahoo! [32:28.440 --> 32:37.440] and he has created a group for court watchers where we can get together, make arrangements to go to court with each other, [32:37.440 --> 32:40.440] make notes about what went on in court with each other. [32:40.440 --> 32:44.440] If you've ever been on a Yahoo! group forum, it's pretty much email operated. [32:44.440 --> 32:50.440] You send and receive emails based upon the postings to the group. [32:50.440 --> 32:59.440] So the address is groups.yahoo.com forward slash group forward slash court watchers. [32:59.440 --> 33:04.440] And the email address is courtwatchers at yahoogroups.com. [33:04.440 --> 33:11.440] So for those of you in Texas that are working on or anywhere else for that matter if you've got people in your own state [33:11.440 --> 33:15.440] that are working on having to go to court for traffic tickets, [33:15.440 --> 33:20.440] this is where we can go to let folks know that we have an upcoming court date [33:20.440 --> 33:27.440] and we need people from the area that are willing and able to go and to assist us in putting these people back on track. [33:27.440 --> 33:35.440] Yes, and speaking of forums, obviously everyone wants the traffic forum, which there already is one set up on rule of law. [33:35.440 --> 33:39.440] Unfortunately, like I said, I've had to disable all new posts until we can find a moderator [33:39.440 --> 33:46.440] so that we don't get set up by the feds from some federal agent trying to post a bomb threat [33:46.440 --> 33:50.440] or a threat on the president or some crap like that that would go unnoticed [33:50.440 --> 33:54.440] and cause a raid and a shutdown of the entire network. [33:54.440 --> 33:57.440] And people have said, well, why don't you just set one up on the Yahoo! forum? [33:57.440 --> 33:59.440] Because I'd still be responsible. [33:59.440 --> 34:00.440] It's the same thing. [34:00.440 --> 34:05.440] Whoever opens the forum, whoever starts the forum, whether or not you host it yourself or use it on Yahoo!, [34:05.440 --> 34:09.440] you have to moderate it or else you could be set up for things like this. [34:09.440 --> 34:14.440] So at any rate, Eddie said that there are some people that are going to step forward to moderate the traffic forum. [34:14.440 --> 34:20.440] So as soon as we get through this hump here of getting the audio and all the seminar materials out, [34:20.440 --> 34:29.440] I will coordinate with these folks who have agreed to moderate the traffic forum and I will unlock that category once again. [34:29.440 --> 34:37.440] Maybe that will inspire other people to adopt a category, so to speak, of the rule of law radio forum. [34:37.440 --> 34:41.440] You know, folks could adopt the civil category. [34:41.440 --> 34:46.440] Somebody could maybe adopt one of the other categories so that one by one slowly we could start unlocking these forums. [34:46.440 --> 34:47.440] We have to have moderators. [34:47.440 --> 34:52.440] When I say moderator, I mean you have to read every single word of every single post. [34:52.440 --> 34:57.440] You can't just read the title to make sure it's not spam or something like that. [34:57.440 --> 35:00.440] You've got to read everything before you allow it to go through. [35:00.440 --> 35:03.440] So at any rate, that will be coming. [35:03.440 --> 35:05.440] All right, so go ahead, Eddie. [35:05.440 --> 35:06.440] All right. [35:06.440 --> 35:13.440] Now, the other thing that you're going to see is the judge is not going to read your motions. [35:13.440 --> 35:21.440] The judge likes to tell you they read the motions, but there are little things you can do to prove that the judge hasn't. [35:21.440 --> 35:30.440] And if you've got your recorder or made the record and gotten a court reporter, then you can catch the judge in a lie, [35:30.440 --> 35:34.440] and you can catch the judge denying you due process. [35:34.440 --> 35:40.440] Basically, it's a trick like what Randy pulled or said he pulled once. [35:40.440 --> 35:48.440] You just ask the judge, well, didn't you read that section in the motion where I said that you were a paroled child molester? [35:48.440 --> 35:50.440] That was Tony Davis pulled that one. [35:50.440 --> 35:51.440] Oh, okay. [35:51.440 --> 35:53.440] On a federal judge. [35:53.440 --> 35:59.440] Yeah, but in any case, they're going to be taken aback by this, to say the very least. [35:59.440 --> 36:07.440] And in so doing, you're going to be able to step forward and make the judge show that they didn't read the motion because what are they going to do? [36:07.440 --> 36:12.440] The first thing they're going to do is jump into that and go, where was that? [36:12.440 --> 36:18.440] And that's going to make it pretty obvious they didn't read it or they didn't know it wasn't in there to begin with. [36:18.440 --> 36:24.440] So there are several different tricks you can use to prove the court is attempting to deny you due process. [36:24.440 --> 36:31.440] So take advantage of being smarter than the average bear here because they certainly aren't. [36:31.440 --> 36:34.440] They want you to think they are, but they aren't. [36:34.440 --> 36:42.440] Now, the other thing you're going to see is that you're going to attempt to ask for certain things to which you are entitled, [36:42.440 --> 36:46.440] and the court is not going to grant them, okay? [36:46.440 --> 36:52.440] For instance, the court does not like to obey the rules of evidence. [36:52.440 --> 37:02.440] However, the law specifically states the same rules of evidence apply in a municipal criminal case as they do in a district court murder case. [37:02.440 --> 37:04.440] They are identical. [37:04.440 --> 37:12.440] So in that case, the judge cannot deny you to have copies of the evidence prior to trial. [37:12.440 --> 37:26.440] The judge cannot deny your right to argue against evidence, to seek the inability to admit evidence on the other side, and so on and so forth. [37:26.440 --> 37:31.440] Let me make a little adjustment here because this always makes me uncomfortable. [37:31.440 --> 37:34.440] We say the judge can't do this, can't do that. [37:34.440 --> 37:35.440] They will. [37:35.440 --> 37:41.440] They're just not authorized or allowed to, and that's where we go to due process. [37:41.440 --> 37:50.440] One thing I suggest is keep a pad and pencil, and every time the judge violates a rule, [37:50.440 --> 38:01.440] write it down because we're going to want to file criminal charges and judicial conduct complaints against him when you're done. [38:01.440 --> 38:02.440] Go ahead, Teddy. [38:02.440 --> 38:04.440] Okay, all right. [38:04.440 --> 38:13.440] What should happen is you make the objection about the officer trying to introduce the video because he can't do that [38:13.440 --> 38:22.440] or the prosecution can't do that under law unless they have provided you with a copy of that video 20 days prior to your trial. [38:22.440 --> 38:35.440] Now, the judge in one of our seminar attendance case refused to omit the videotape despite the lawful objection to it being there. [38:35.440 --> 38:40.440] Now, given that, there's all kinds of things wrong with this. [38:40.440 --> 38:50.440] That's an appealable thing right there simply because the judge is completely disobeying the law. [38:50.440 --> 39:02.440] I mean, everything you do you wish to document, but in every single case, your favorite word is objection always, okay? [39:02.440 --> 39:10.440] You object to everything the judge is doing that is outside of the lawful authority granted to the judge, [39:10.440 --> 39:17.440] and that's actually quite a little bit of stuff instead of a vast array of stuff like they would like you to believe. [39:17.440 --> 39:19.440] The judge is required to obey the rules. [39:19.440 --> 39:25.440] That's exactly what Jurisdictionary tries to teach you is that when the judge steps outside the bounds of the rules, [39:25.440 --> 39:30.440] you have to learn the method to control the judge and put them back. [39:30.440 --> 39:32.440] You're the only one that can. [39:32.440 --> 39:34.440] No one else in there is going to. [39:34.440 --> 39:38.440] So what you have to do is to know what those rules are. [39:38.440 --> 39:43.440] If you don't know the rules, you are fighting blind, and it's a fight you will lose. [39:43.440 --> 39:49.440] I'm sure we've got people that have been there, done that, and know that that's the way it works. [39:49.440 --> 39:57.440] So what we need to do is to make sure that everything we do holds the judge to the law, [39:57.440 --> 40:01.440] and we keep on the judge to keep them in line with the law. [40:01.440 --> 40:06.440] Now, you got anything specific you want to address in this case, Randy? [40:06.440 --> 40:16.440] Well, just primarily the part that I do and I keep thinking about is always keep in mind [40:16.440 --> 40:23.440] that if a judge denies you in a right, in the form of free access to or enjoyment of a right, [40:23.440 --> 40:29.440] and he does so in violation of a law relating to his office, that's a crime in Texas. [40:29.440 --> 40:32.440] Yep. In fact, it's two crimes in Texas. [40:32.440 --> 40:34.440] And they're pretty serious. [40:34.440 --> 40:39.440] So take note, and that's one thing. [40:39.440 --> 40:42.440] Each time a judge does something like that, take note, [40:42.440 --> 40:45.440] and they're going to wonder what you're taking note about. [40:45.440 --> 40:51.440] But as soon as you get out of the courtroom, what I like to do is ask the bailiff to step outside, [40:51.440 --> 40:56.440] and then I'll ask the bailiff to take my criminal complaints against the judge. [40:56.440 --> 41:02.440] Now, he's going to refuse, but as soon as you're finished with him, [41:02.440 --> 41:08.440] he's going to run to the judge and tell the judge that this guy's trying to get me to arrest you. [41:08.440 --> 41:12.440] That tends to get their attention. [41:12.440 --> 41:16.440] Now, don't forget we have Jim from Texas that's waiting on the line, too, guys. [41:16.440 --> 41:19.440] Okay. Let's take Jim's. He's been waiting quite a while. [41:19.440 --> 41:23.440] Unless y'all have anything else you need to finish up right now. [41:23.440 --> 41:26.440] Okay. All right. We're going to go to Jim from Texas. [41:26.440 --> 41:29.440] Jim, thanks for patiently waiting. What's on your mind tonight? [41:29.440 --> 41:32.440] Do you have a question for Eddie and Randy for me? [41:32.440 --> 41:40.440] Yeah, for pretty much all three of you, if I can maybe get your opinion of what you might do. [41:40.440 --> 41:48.440] I've got a letter we're writing as basically a tort letter for a dollar rental car, [41:48.440 --> 41:56.440] and it's only for a ticket that was received through a toll booth. [41:56.440 --> 42:05.440] But what they did is they say in the contract that they have to notify you of a ticket, [42:05.440 --> 42:09.440] and if you don't pay it by the date it's due, they're going to charge you, but they never notify you. [42:09.440 --> 42:14.440] They just send you a bill. Well, they charge it to your credit card. [42:14.440 --> 42:21.440] So I'm going to send a tort letter, and if they don't take the charges off and stuff, we're going to sue them. [42:21.440 --> 42:32.440] And I think there's several issues in it because the letter I got from them actually states that in order to contact them, [42:32.440 --> 42:40.440] they give me a telephone number or vehicle violation at DTAG.com is the other contact for them. [42:40.440 --> 42:44.440] That doesn't sound like a dollar rental car. [42:44.440 --> 42:48.440] Well, Jim, did you go through a toll booth and didn't pay or something, [42:48.440 --> 42:51.440] and they're trying to make you pay again because that's what happened to me. [42:51.440 --> 43:03.440] No, it was in Denver. My wife had rented a car and got on the toll road accidentally and went through, [43:03.440 --> 43:08.440] but she never received any bill from them. [43:08.440 --> 43:14.440] They send it to dollar, but dollar intentionally doesn't send it to you because it's only a $2 fine, [43:14.440 --> 43:16.440] and they charge you 20 more dollars. [43:16.440 --> 43:19.440] Oh, boy, why do they charge you an extra 20 bucks? [43:19.440 --> 43:21.440] They're a processing fee. [43:21.440 --> 43:22.440] Yeah, it's called a processing fee. [43:22.440 --> 43:23.440] Oh, it's a scam. [43:23.440 --> 43:26.440] But they need to notify you until afterwards. That's why I want to push this. [43:26.440 --> 43:29.440] Oh, because they were supposed to notify you first. [43:29.440 --> 43:31.440] Then you can go after them for credit card fraud. [43:31.440 --> 43:37.440] If they're required by law to do something before they can be allowed to charge your card and they haven't done that, [43:37.440 --> 43:38.440] that's credit card fraud. [43:38.440 --> 43:41.440] Well, I've got one question waiting until you get back from break. [43:41.440 --> 43:48.440] We're about to go to break. Hang on the line, Jim, and others who would like to call in 512-646-1984 [43:48.440 --> 43:55.440] to ask questions of Eddie, Randy, or me, especially if you have municipal traffic issues. [43:55.440 --> 44:00.440] Tonight's Eddie's Night. We'll be right back. [44:00.440 --> 44:05.440] This is Deborah Stevens from Rule of Law Radio with an update on the Austin Micro FM. [44:05.440 --> 44:09.440] The outpouring of support for 90.1 has been tremendous. [44:09.440 --> 44:15.440] For only two days, Brave New Books has collected over 100 letters and enough donations to cover court costs so far. [44:15.440 --> 44:21.440] A lawsuit and petition for restraining order has been filed to stop the FCC from taking any further actions [44:21.440 --> 44:23.440] until this is sorted out in court. [44:23.440 --> 44:26.440] 90.1 will stay on the air for the long haul. [44:26.440 --> 44:32.440] Even if the court orders the operators to shut down, we are prepared to appeal all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. [44:32.440 --> 44:39.440] Now is the time to kick our Serving the Public Interest letter campaign into high gear to go viral [44:39.440 --> 44:42.440] so we can build as strong a case as possible. [44:42.440 --> 44:48.440] We need your donations to cover future court costs, travel expenses, and possible fines as well. [44:48.440 --> 44:52.440] Please go to ruleoflawradio.com to download the letter and donate. [44:52.440 --> 44:56.440] Or stop by Brave New Books at 1904 Guadalupe, Suite B. [44:56.440 --> 45:02.440] Thank you, Austin, and please continue your support. [45:26.440 --> 45:55.440] All right. [45:55.440 --> 45:56.440] All right, watching the Sparks fly. [45:56.440 --> 45:58.440] We are back. [45:58.440 --> 46:00.440] We're speaking with Jim in Texas. [46:00.440 --> 46:01.440] Okay, go ahead, Jim. [46:01.440 --> 46:04.440] You were just about to tell us something right before we went to break. [46:04.440 --> 46:05.440] Right. [46:05.440 --> 46:13.440] What I was saying here is that on the letter that they sent out, it's from Dollar Rental Car, it says, [46:13.440 --> 46:17.440] and they give a contact phone number for Dollar Rental Car. [46:17.440 --> 46:19.440] It's an 800 number. [46:19.440 --> 46:23.440] But their email address is at vehicleviolationatdtag.com. [46:23.440 --> 46:34.440] It's apparently they are sharing your credit card information and stuff with the Toll Tag company. [46:34.440 --> 46:42.440] And because that contact is not a Dollar Rental Car contact at dtag.com, [46:42.440 --> 46:56.440] and I'm asking in the letter basically if they work for the Denver Toll Tag or if they work for Dollar Rental Car, [46:56.440 --> 47:01.440] because if they're sharing the information outside of the contract, you know, [47:01.440 --> 47:06.440] that's a whole different issue, personal information outside that. [47:06.440 --> 47:14.440] But my question, my main question is we rented the car over the Internet from Texas. [47:14.440 --> 47:21.440] The Dollar Rental Car corporate office is in Tulsa, Oklahoma. [47:21.440 --> 47:26.440] Dollar Rental Car that we rented from was in Denver, [47:26.440 --> 47:31.440] or where we picked the car up and that's where the violation was. [47:31.440 --> 47:37.440] Jurisdiction, what would be my jurisdiction? [47:37.440 --> 47:39.440] I mean, I keep going back and forth on it. [47:39.440 --> 47:42.440] Really, it was rented right here in Texas over the Internet. [47:42.440 --> 47:44.440] That's where it was paid for. [47:44.440 --> 47:46.440] Diversity jurisdiction is federal. [47:46.440 --> 47:54.440] Federal, well, so you think I would need to go into the federal court if it comes to that? [47:54.440 --> 47:57.440] Yep, and that would be a hoot. [47:57.440 --> 48:01.440] Yeah, well, especially for a $20. [48:01.440 --> 48:02.440] Oh, that would make it even better. [48:02.440 --> 48:05.440] The judge would probably have fun with it. [48:05.440 --> 48:11.440] Well, remember in the Bill of Rights it talks about suits at $20 or greater. [48:11.440 --> 48:15.440] Oh, yeah, and this one is $22 and 25. [48:15.440 --> 48:16.440] That's perfect. [48:16.440 --> 48:18.440] It falls into the Constitution and everything. [48:18.440 --> 48:21.440] Article 7. [48:21.440 --> 48:29.440] So that was one of my – I considered the federal jurisdiction, but I didn't know if I could keep it in the state. [48:29.440 --> 48:37.440] For the amount, what I would love to do is bring them into municipal court here. [48:37.440 --> 48:46.440] Wait, I've got an email here or a Skype here about they must show a signature for the exact charges. [48:46.440 --> 48:50.440] They cannot charge for anything after the fact. [48:50.440 --> 48:55.440] Well, this was charged after the fact because after we had closed the account, [48:55.440 --> 49:01.440] in other words, returned the car status factory, signed the papers, [49:01.440 --> 49:12.440] my wife noticed about, I don't know, a month later or so a $20 charge on a credit card from them. [49:12.440 --> 49:17.440] And then about a week after that I got the letter in the mail. [49:17.440 --> 49:22.440] And then that's when I started looking at this. [49:22.440 --> 49:28.440] But I've got – there are a lot of issues because I read through the contract completely, through their letter, [49:28.440 --> 49:31.440] and I want to get this done pretty quick. [49:31.440 --> 49:43.440] And I think I want to have fun with it because the amount here – can you imagine how many times they do this though in all the different states? [49:43.440 --> 49:45.440] I'm sure it's a huge racket. [49:45.440 --> 49:51.440] So this gives you opportunity to sue as private attorney general. [49:51.440 --> 49:58.440] This is the only time you get to sue as a private attorney general when you sue in your behalf. [49:58.440 --> 49:59.440] And others. [49:59.440 --> 50:01.440] And all others similarly situated. [50:01.440 --> 50:02.440] Right. [50:02.440 --> 50:07.440] And there are a lot of others similarly situated. [50:07.440 --> 50:08.440] That could be a hoot. [50:08.440 --> 50:09.440] You could collect all that money. [50:09.440 --> 50:15.440] But see, they never, ever notify you of any violation. [50:15.440 --> 50:17.440] In their contract it doesn't say anything about it. [50:17.440 --> 50:26.440] It says that if you are a flight, you run out and don't pay it after you've been notified, [50:26.440 --> 50:29.440] they can give you information to them. [50:29.440 --> 50:31.440] But that's the only way. [50:31.440 --> 50:34.440] But this ticket would have been mailed to them. [50:34.440 --> 50:38.440] But I know because I've gotten them in Texas and they always mail it to the rental car company. [50:38.440 --> 50:43.440] The rental car company gives them the information and forwards it. [50:43.440 --> 50:44.440] But they don't do anything. [50:44.440 --> 50:47.440] They just collect the money. [50:47.440 --> 50:50.440] And I want to find out how much money. [50:50.440 --> 51:04.440] I want to be able to file under discovery and find out how many different times just this one Denver toll tag company has been paid by them. [51:04.440 --> 51:12.440] And I want to find out if they pay them or if they pay them with my credit card. [51:12.440 --> 51:14.440] I'm going to bet they paid with your credit card. [51:14.440 --> 51:15.440] Yeah. [51:15.440 --> 51:22.440] And so it's going to be very interesting because the- [51:22.440 --> 51:29.440] Does the contract that you signed authorize them to make this charge? [51:29.440 --> 51:40.440] It authorizes them to if I fail to make the payment by the due date, but I have to have notification. [51:40.440 --> 51:47.440] When there is no notification, there can't be any requirement. [51:47.440 --> 51:52.440] In other words, if I got a parking ticket or something like that is what they're talking about or a tag violation [51:52.440 --> 52:02.440] because it's actually called a toll charge. [52:02.440 --> 52:05.440] It doesn't say violation or anything, I don't believe. [52:05.440 --> 52:15.440] But only after the due date of the ticket, which I've never known that there was a ticket. [52:15.440 --> 52:24.440] I never knew that there was a due date, so I didn't have the option to pay it. [52:24.440 --> 52:26.440] Sounds like it could be fun. [52:26.440 --> 52:28.440] It would certainly be a good learning experience. [52:28.440 --> 52:31.440] Certainly a contractual violation. [52:31.440 --> 52:33.440] Well, yeah, and that was my whole thing. [52:33.440 --> 52:41.440] I've got a long list of demands basically for them to answer. [52:41.440 --> 52:53.440] It was full disclosure because they make the statement that they had the duty to disclose certain things. [52:53.440 --> 52:59.440] Well, the duty also requires them to disclose the full, not just certain parts. [52:59.440 --> 53:01.440] Yes, and I have the case law on that. [53:01.440 --> 53:05.440] If they give partial disclosure, they're required to give full disclosure. [53:05.440 --> 53:16.440] Right, and they actually say in their letter that their records required them to give disclosure of certain things. [53:16.440 --> 53:21.440] But it requires them to actually give full disclosure, not just a certain. [53:21.440 --> 53:31.440] They like to bypass the parts that would make them culpable. [53:31.440 --> 53:35.440] But using federal jurisdiction, that was my main question. [53:35.440 --> 53:37.440] I'll pursue that. [53:37.440 --> 53:45.440] Yes, anything that involves more than one state is always diversity jurisdiction. [53:45.440 --> 53:47.440] All right, well, I appreciate it. [53:47.440 --> 53:49.440] All right, thank you, Jim. [53:49.440 --> 53:50.440] You guys take care. [53:50.440 --> 53:51.440] All right, you too. [53:51.440 --> 54:00.440] Okay, now I've got a Scott question here talking about no prosecutor or the cop showing up at the arraignment in place of a prosecutor [54:00.440 --> 54:03.440] or as the prosecutor. [54:03.440 --> 54:08.440] Basically speaking, that's going to depend upon what the rules in your area are. [54:08.440 --> 54:12.440] In Texas, the cop's not allowed to be a prosecutor. [54:12.440 --> 54:15.440] He can't act as a prosecutor. [54:15.440 --> 54:18.440] In other states, that's not necessarily the case. [54:18.440 --> 54:26.440] If the state law there says that any executive officer, then that would in most cases apply to a police officer [54:26.440 --> 54:30.440] because they are usually formulated under the executive branch. [54:30.440 --> 54:33.440] So in that case, that would apply. [54:33.440 --> 54:47.440] However, you can always see if that little bit of legislation has a conflict with the license to practice law statutes of that particular state. [54:47.440 --> 54:52.440] If there's not an exception between the two, specifically spelled out by the legislature, [54:52.440 --> 54:57.440] there's a good chance that you can make the argument that one's in violation of the other. [54:57.440 --> 55:03.440] So there's always a way to go at that if you need to. [55:03.440 --> 55:06.440] Okay, all right, and we have another caller on the line. [55:06.440 --> 55:09.440] We've got Mark from Wisconsin. [55:09.440 --> 55:10.440] Mark, thanks for calling in. [55:10.440 --> 55:12.440] What's on your mind tonight? [55:12.440 --> 55:13.440] Hey, how are you doing? [55:13.440 --> 55:15.440] I'm doing pretty good. [55:15.440 --> 55:17.440] How are the survivor seeds going? [55:17.440 --> 55:19.440] Pretty good, pretty good. [55:19.440 --> 55:22.440] That's what I call it. [55:22.440 --> 55:28.440] I wanted to find out if Randy had a fax number, an address. [55:28.440 --> 55:33.440] I got some paperwork I wanted to send to him from that farmer, Pat Montelovich, here in Wisconsin. [55:33.440 --> 55:38.440] He's got a gig for that premises ID. [55:38.440 --> 55:47.440] It looks like they took him through a civil proceeding, and I don't see any – it looks like the district attorney prosecuted it [55:47.440 --> 55:52.440] and said they were trying to recover for a fine in the civil procedure, [55:52.440 --> 56:02.440] and I don't see any aggrieved party other than the district attorney. [56:02.440 --> 56:08.440] I got the transcript from that, but I haven't had time to read it yet. [56:08.440 --> 56:22.440] I do have a fax number. It's 512-682-2424. [56:22.440 --> 56:31.440] Right. Okay. Yeah, and everything just seems so fishy about this story, this case here, [56:31.440 --> 56:37.440] because I didn't know you could take him to civil court for a statutory violation. [56:37.440 --> 56:41.440] Oh, yeah. Anytime a public official violates a law associated with the duty of their office, [56:41.440 --> 56:46.440] irregardless of the state, there has to be a remedy for the people when that happens. [56:46.440 --> 56:49.440] No, no, no. That's not what he was going to. [56:49.440 --> 57:02.440] They charged these guys with a civil violation, and generally, if it's a statutory violation, [57:02.440 --> 57:08.440] then the prosecutor for the state will generally be the one to prosecute, [57:08.440 --> 57:15.440] or if it's a municipality, then the municipal prosecutor will represent the state. [57:15.440 --> 57:23.440] For instance, here in Texas, the district attorney represents the state in all criminal prosecutions. [57:23.440 --> 57:33.440] The county attorney represents the state in all civil litigation and all criminal prosecutions [57:33.440 --> 57:40.440] below the level of felony. So he's their civil attorney as well. [57:40.440 --> 57:44.440] So it's probably the same thing there in Wisconsin. [57:44.440 --> 57:49.440] Oh, I see. Well, that sucks. [57:49.440 --> 57:53.440] You thought you had an easier shot at it. [57:53.440 --> 57:55.440] Minnesota gave me a call too when I was checking on her traffic ticket. [57:55.440 --> 58:02.440] Apparently, the statute says they have to send the summons by certified mail if she lives out of state. [58:02.440 --> 58:04.440] Yeah. [58:04.440 --> 58:09.440] And she didn't get that, so I'm wondering, do you guys know how to file a void judgment? [58:09.440 --> 58:13.440] Yes, but did she show up in court? [58:13.440 --> 58:16.440] Well, they didn't send it to her certified mail if she's out of state. [58:16.440 --> 58:18.440] They violated procedural requirements. [58:18.440 --> 58:23.440] But if she showed up in court, she waived the objection. [58:23.440 --> 58:24.440] Oh, my God. [58:24.440 --> 58:31.440] That sucks too. [58:31.440 --> 58:35.440] All right. Well, do you want to hold on to the other side, Mark? [58:35.440 --> 58:36.440] Yeah, I will. [58:36.440 --> 58:39.440] Okay. We've also got John from Florida. We'll be taking your call on the other side as well. [58:39.440 --> 59:00.440] Callers, if you'd like to call in, 512-646-1984.

[01:00:00.440 --> 01:00:05.440] This news brief brought to you by the International News Net. [01:00:05.440 --> 01:00:10.440] Bolivian President Evo Morales easily won his second five-year term Sunday. [01:00:10.440 --> 01:00:17.440] Morales, Bolivia's first indigenous president, has long appealed to Bolivians who felt shut out by the old political elites [01:00:17.440 --> 01:00:23.440] in a country where 60% of the population is indigenous and falls below the poverty line. [01:00:23.440 --> 01:00:30.440] The Obama administration sent a false form media message Sunday that U.S. forces could remain in Afghanistan for a long time. [01:00:30.440 --> 01:00:36.440] Barack Obama had stated he would begin withdrawing U.S. forces in July 2011. [01:00:36.440 --> 01:00:43.440] Republicans charged that setting a departure date would embolden the Taliban to simply wait the Americans out. [01:00:43.440 --> 01:00:48.440] British Prime Minister Gordon Brown was snubbed Sunday by badly injured Afghan veterans [01:00:48.440 --> 01:00:55.440] when they closed curtains around their beds during a hospital visit and refused to speak to him. [01:00:55.440 --> 01:00:59.440] The soldiers who have sustained some of the worst injuries seen in Afghanistan [01:00:59.440 --> 01:01:06.440] described his visit as opportunistic and a waste of time. [01:01:06.440 --> 01:01:10.440] A landmark conference on climate change opened in Copenhagen Monday [01:01:10.440 --> 01:01:17.440] with warning of apocalyptic dangers for mankind if world leaders fail to agree to a way to reduce global warming. [01:01:17.440 --> 01:01:26.440] The impact of man-made drought, floods, storms and rising seas was spelled out at the meeting attended by 110 heads of government. [01:01:26.440 --> 01:01:31.440] Delegates must craft a blueprint for tackling man-made greenhouse gases [01:01:31.440 --> 01:01:37.440] blamed for trapping solar heat and disrupting Earth's fragile climate system. [01:01:37.440 --> 01:01:45.440] They must also put together a funding mechanism to channel hundreds of billions of dollars to poor nations most exposed to climate change. [01:01:45.440 --> 01:01:53.440] Barack Obama is hoping to push through a new deal after the US rejected the Kyoto Protocol under George Bush. [01:01:53.440 --> 01:02:00.440] A recent scandal over hacked emails from British academics has raised questions about the science behind climate change. [01:02:00.440 --> 01:02:11.440] The head of the UN panel of climate experts said Monday he suspected the hacking was an attempt to discredit his organisation. [01:02:11.440 --> 01:02:17.440] A UK mail on Sunday says Russian security services are suspected of being behind the leaked emails [01:02:17.440 --> 01:02:21.440] that threaten to undermine the Copenhagen global warming summit. [01:02:21.440 --> 01:02:27.440] The mail says the hacked emails from the University of East Anglia were leaked via a small web server [01:02:27.440 --> 01:02:31.440] in the formerly closed city of Tomsk in Siberia. [01:02:31.440 --> 01:02:37.440] The row erupted when hundreds of email messages between scientists at the university's climatic research unit [01:02:37.440 --> 01:02:41.440] and their colleagues around the world were placed on the internet. [01:02:41.440 --> 01:02:48.440] The leaked emails appear to show that CRU director Professor Phil Jones and colleagues attempted to manipulate figures [01:02:48.440 --> 01:02:52.440] and hide data from researchers with opposing views. [01:02:52.440 --> 01:02:56.440] Russia, one of the world's largest producers and users of oil and gas, [01:02:56.440 --> 01:03:04.440] has a vested interest in opposing sweeping new agreements to cut emissions. [01:03:04.440 --> 01:03:10.440] You are listening to the rule of law radio network at ruleoflawradio.com. [01:03:10.440 --> 01:03:38.440] Live free speech talk radio at its best. [01:03:40.440 --> 01:03:42.440] People! [01:04:10.440 --> 01:04:17.440] Okay, we are back. [01:04:17.440 --> 01:04:21.440] We've got John from Wisconsin, I'm sorry, John from Florida, Mark from Wisconsin. [01:04:21.440 --> 01:04:23.440] John, you're up next. [01:04:23.440 --> 01:04:24.440] Right now we're talking to Mark. [01:04:24.440 --> 01:04:27.440] Okay, Mark, you said you had another question or comment, so go ahead. [01:04:27.440 --> 01:04:37.440] Yeah, with Gail from Minnesota, she sent a bunch of questions in for, I'm not sure, I think she got it from Eddie, [01:04:37.440 --> 01:04:41.440] sent a bunch of questions in for the district attorney to answer [01:04:41.440 --> 01:04:48.440] and the judge sent her a letter that said that the DA had 10 days to answer and then he never did, [01:04:48.440 --> 01:04:56.440] but the judge then sent her a letter that said that he threw out her, maybe it was a notice of default or whatever, [01:04:56.440 --> 01:05:00.440] but he wasn't going to make the DA answer those questions anymore. [01:05:00.440 --> 01:05:05.440] So eventually they found her guilty of default judgment because she didn't show up. [01:05:05.440 --> 01:05:08.440] She thought that that had taken care of the problem. [01:05:08.440 --> 01:05:15.440] Now I know what they generally do in these court cases is they just steamroller over everything you throw at them [01:05:15.440 --> 01:05:17.440] and I'm wondering how to go after them next. [01:05:17.440 --> 01:05:24.440] I mean, I've foiled her information, I haven't got it back yet, so I'm not exactly sure what I'm dealing with, [01:05:24.440 --> 01:05:29.440] but it seems to me if the judge ordered the DA to answer those questions then he never did. [01:05:29.440 --> 01:05:35.440] There might be some kind of default involved there. [01:05:35.440 --> 01:05:44.440] There would only be a default if the judge was willing to or prepared to enforce the default. [01:05:44.440 --> 01:05:50.440] My concern with those kinds of requirements is it's commercial in nature [01:05:50.440 --> 01:05:59.440] and there's no statutory duty on part of the prosecutor to answer. [01:05:59.440 --> 01:06:06.440] Now some things that you can file and if they're not answered, [01:06:06.440 --> 01:06:15.440] then it establishes that as fact, but this was not one of those cases. [01:06:15.440 --> 01:06:23.440] How long generally do you have before you can file for notice of facts and conclusions from the judge? [01:06:23.440 --> 01:06:32.440] Well, generally those are filed after a decision is made and it's immediately. [01:06:32.440 --> 01:06:37.440] It's best if you have them ready in your hand when the judge renders the ruling [01:06:37.440 --> 01:06:43.440] because generally in traffic court you know they're going to rule against you as a matter of course, no matter what. [01:06:43.440 --> 01:06:48.440] So you tend to have it in your hand and just hand it to the judge [01:06:48.440 --> 01:06:53.440] and ask the judge to either accept your findings of fact and conclusions at law [01:06:53.440 --> 01:06:57.440] or come up with his own so you can perfect your appeal. [01:06:57.440 --> 01:07:00.440] So that's generally done immediately. [01:07:00.440 --> 01:07:03.440] So I probably don't have a chance of getting that done. [01:07:03.440 --> 01:07:06.440] Well, I'm still looking for a way to get her out of that ticket. [01:07:06.440 --> 01:07:08.440] She's on a mission as you know. [01:07:08.440 --> 01:07:11.440] Yes, I know. [01:07:11.440 --> 01:07:13.440] She is quite a character. [01:07:13.440 --> 01:07:18.440] She stays right after them. [01:07:18.440 --> 01:07:23.440] This is one of the people you tell her what to do and she actually does it. [01:07:23.440 --> 01:07:27.440] That's always nice. [01:07:27.440 --> 01:07:30.440] She's still going after those attorneys up there. [01:07:30.440 --> 01:07:35.440] You know with her divorce case and all that, [01:07:35.440 --> 01:07:39.440] I think she's building quite a case against her own attorneys [01:07:39.440 --> 01:07:43.440] that have had her tied up in litigation for three years for a simple divorce [01:07:43.440 --> 01:07:46.440] that shouldn't have taken more than three months to adjudicate. [01:07:46.440 --> 01:07:50.440] Oh yeah, this attorney with a total conflict of interest. [01:07:50.440 --> 01:07:56.440] She hired these attorneys a couple months ago in a divorce where she's done most of the research [01:07:56.440 --> 01:08:01.440] because she's representing herself and they have charged her $90,000. [01:08:01.440 --> 01:08:03.440] What? [01:08:03.440 --> 01:08:08.440] Yeah, that's for about six weeks of service. [01:08:08.440 --> 01:08:13.440] I told her to send one of her girlfriends into the office there like she's shopping for an attorney [01:08:13.440 --> 01:08:16.440] for a divorce and find out what their hourly rate is. [01:08:16.440 --> 01:08:20.440] I'm sure we're going to find discrepancies there. [01:08:20.440 --> 01:08:23.440] Yeah, they're just raking her over the coal. [01:08:23.440 --> 01:08:28.440] Her first set of attorneys, Randy, charged her like $117,000. [01:08:28.440 --> 01:08:35.440] So she's looking at about $200,000 in attorney fees and these attorneys did nothing for her. [01:08:35.440 --> 01:08:40.440] Not to mention she's supposed to be co-counseling there, having meetings with the judge without her too. [01:08:40.440 --> 01:08:43.440] Yes, that's been a real problem. [01:08:43.440 --> 01:08:46.440] I used to think Florida was the most corrupt state. [01:08:46.440 --> 01:08:48.440] Now I think it's Minnesota. [01:08:48.440 --> 01:08:50.440] I think it's time for Eddie's justice. [01:08:50.440 --> 01:08:51.440] Get the rope. [01:08:51.440 --> 01:08:53.440] Speaking of Florida, we got somebody from Florida. [01:08:53.440 --> 01:08:56.440] Yeah, Mark, do you have anything else for us? [01:08:56.440 --> 01:08:57.440] No, I'm good. [01:08:57.440 --> 01:08:59.440] Hey, thanks a lot. [01:08:59.440 --> 01:09:00.440] Thanks, Mark. [01:09:00.440 --> 01:09:05.440] Go to survivorseeds.com out there, everybody, and get your survivor seeds [01:09:05.440 --> 01:09:11.440] because I believe Mark is giving some of the proceeds right now from survivor seeds to help with the 90.1 Legal Fund. [01:09:11.440 --> 01:09:13.440] Is that correct, Mark? [01:09:13.440 --> 01:09:14.440] Okay, he's off the line. [01:09:14.440 --> 01:09:16.440] Yes, and I'm sure he is. [01:09:16.440 --> 01:09:18.440] We already talked about that last week. [01:09:18.440 --> 01:09:21.440] Okay, John from Florida. [01:09:21.440 --> 01:09:22.440] All right, John, thanks. [01:09:22.440 --> 01:09:24.440] What's on your mind tonight? [01:09:24.440 --> 01:09:27.440] You have a question for myself or Randy or Eddie? [01:09:27.440 --> 01:09:28.440] Yes, I do. [01:09:28.440 --> 01:09:29.440] Good evening, guys. [01:09:29.440 --> 01:09:33.440] I'm John from the seminar back in October. [01:09:33.440 --> 01:09:36.440] Yeah, John, it's really hard to understand you right now. [01:09:36.440 --> 01:09:39.440] You're not on a Bluetooth or anything, are you? [01:09:39.440 --> 01:09:42.440] It's a hands-free piece. [01:09:42.440 --> 01:09:49.440] Yeah, is it a – try to get on your regular handset if you can, please. [01:09:49.440 --> 01:09:51.440] Yeah, I'm out of a black there. [01:09:51.440 --> 01:09:53.440] I can't seem to find one that will work with me. [01:09:53.440 --> 01:09:57.440] It's actually a wired one, but apparently that one's not working for me either. [01:09:57.440 --> 01:10:01.440] And anyway, this is the same guy that was at the – [01:10:01.440 --> 01:10:05.440] Just try to speak up because we're really having a hard time understanding you. [01:10:05.440 --> 01:10:08.440] We try to let all the callers know, do not use a Bluetooth. [01:10:08.440 --> 01:10:10.440] Don't use any hands-free type of devices. [01:10:10.440 --> 01:10:15.440] I know it's a pain in the butt, but we can't understand what you're saying on the air. [01:10:15.440 --> 01:10:17.440] All right, took their hands-free piece out. [01:10:17.440 --> 01:10:18.440] Can you hear me okay now? [01:10:18.440 --> 01:10:19.440] That's a little bit better. [01:10:19.440 --> 01:10:23.440] Just try to get the mic a little closer to your mouth. [01:10:23.440 --> 01:10:28.440] All right, well, I spoke with Eddie regarding – I've been on a few calls now. [01:10:28.440 --> 01:10:35.440] We spoke with Eddie regarding my traffic trial that came up last Thursday. [01:10:35.440 --> 01:10:38.440] Now, I went through that trial, and I was completely railroaded. [01:10:38.440 --> 01:10:43.440] I sent Eddie a summary of what happened. [01:10:43.440 --> 01:10:47.440] And basically, you know, I don't know if you want me to go ahead, give a little – [01:10:47.440 --> 01:10:51.440] you know, give my summary of it right now, or if you want to kind of dive in. [01:10:51.440 --> 01:10:54.440] I don't know how you want to do this, Eddie, but, you know, I don't want to waste any time. [01:10:54.440 --> 01:10:56.440] Rock and roll. [01:10:56.440 --> 01:10:58.440] I'm willing if they are. [01:10:58.440 --> 01:10:59.440] I'm sorry? [01:10:59.440 --> 01:11:03.440] I'm willing to listen to you and see what we can do if they are. [01:11:03.440 --> 01:11:05.440] Yeah, yeah, go ahead and give us the summary. [01:11:05.440 --> 01:11:11.440] Okay, so I come into court, and, you know, I'm listening to a few cases before me. [01:11:11.440 --> 01:11:16.440] And then I had filed – basically, before I got there, I had filed two things. [01:11:16.440 --> 01:11:20.440] My affidavit is truth, and I had never filed that. [01:11:20.440 --> 01:11:25.440] I did not file the copy with the prosecutor's office because these are civil charges. [01:11:25.440 --> 01:11:27.440] There was no point in filing it. [01:11:27.440 --> 01:11:31.440] In my mind, I'm thinking there's nobody to file this with because there's no opponent in counsel, [01:11:31.440 --> 01:11:33.440] and this is not a criminal matter. [01:11:33.440 --> 01:11:36.440] I found out from Greg Thornton that I should have filed it with the prosecutor at any house [01:11:36.440 --> 01:11:38.440] if there was a default. [01:11:38.440 --> 01:11:41.440] So that I did not do. [01:11:41.440 --> 01:11:45.440] Now, I did file – when I got to court there, I filed my petition – [01:11:45.440 --> 01:11:49.440] well, I created a petition for the officer to show authority. [01:11:49.440 --> 01:11:52.440] I didn't get into what that exactly was in a minute. [01:11:52.440 --> 01:11:57.440] So I walked into those, and these two had filed in, and were called up. [01:11:57.440 --> 01:12:03.440] And, you know, the first thing that the judge does is ask the officer to give his testimony. [01:12:03.440 --> 01:12:07.440] So he gives a rundown on what happened in terms of him catching me with his ways [01:12:07.440 --> 01:12:09.440] and issuing me the ticket. [01:12:09.440 --> 01:12:13.440] So when he's done, the judge asks me if I have any questions for the officer. [01:12:13.440 --> 01:12:16.440] What I told him was I don't have any questions. [01:12:16.440 --> 01:12:20.440] I first have questions – a couple questions for the judge. [01:12:20.440 --> 01:12:24.440] And he seemed kind of annoyed, but he said, okay, what are they? [01:12:24.440 --> 01:12:29.440] And the first thing I asked him is I said I wanted to know what forum I'm in [01:12:29.440 --> 01:12:31.440] so I understand where I'm standing. [01:12:31.440 --> 01:12:34.440] I want to know what forum I'm being targeted. [01:12:34.440 --> 01:12:38.440] And he told me this was a traffic infraction trial. [01:12:38.440 --> 01:12:41.440] I said I understand that, but at the same time, there are three types of forums. [01:12:41.440 --> 01:12:44.440] It's either civil, judicial, or administrative. [01:12:44.440 --> 01:12:45.440] Which one am I in? [01:12:45.440 --> 01:12:51.440] And he told me I was in a judicial – it was a judicial trial forum. [01:12:51.440 --> 01:12:57.440] So I said, well, these are civil charges I'm being charged with. [01:12:57.440 --> 01:13:03.440] And he said to me that he's a – he said I'm a county judge [01:13:03.440 --> 01:13:10.440] and I hear matters that are of a civil criminal quasi-nature, [01:13:10.440 --> 01:13:14.440] and therefore he hears a little bit of everything. [01:13:14.440 --> 01:13:20.440] And then the next thing he said to me that intimidated me was that, you know, [01:13:20.440 --> 01:13:22.440] he has the power of being a county judge. [01:13:22.440 --> 01:13:27.440] He has the power to suspend my license and fine me in contempt. [01:13:27.440 --> 01:13:28.440] I didn't pay much mind. [01:13:28.440 --> 01:13:34.440] I said, okay, well, what – I then asked him, I said, well, if you're in a judicial forum, [01:13:34.440 --> 01:13:36.440] I said where's the prosecutor? [01:13:36.440 --> 01:13:38.440] And he just looked at me and said there is no prosecutor. [01:13:38.440 --> 01:13:39.440] And I repeated that to him. [01:13:39.440 --> 01:13:41.440] I said there is no prosecutor. [01:13:41.440 --> 01:13:43.440] He said yes, there is no prosecutor. [01:13:43.440 --> 01:13:44.440] I said fine. [01:13:44.440 --> 01:13:47.440] So, I mean, I'm sure I should have expected this, you know, [01:13:47.440 --> 01:13:49.440] that the violation would be processed, [01:13:49.440 --> 01:13:55.440] but given that the first time I'm trying to keep my mind straight on what I need to do. [01:13:55.440 --> 01:14:05.440] So the next thing I think I said to him at that point was – so I was trying to – [01:14:05.440 --> 01:14:07.440] he told me there was no prosecutor. [01:14:07.440 --> 01:14:10.440] He said do I have – he said do you want to give your testimony? [01:14:10.440 --> 01:14:14.440] And I said, you know, I'm trying to keep straight my fit-up face. [01:14:14.440 --> 01:14:20.440] So I went ahead and I gave my testimony of what happened in terms of my getting pulled over. [01:14:20.440 --> 01:14:23.440] And I went step-by-step in what happened in terms of the – [01:14:23.440 --> 01:14:26.440] now I'm driving along, a bunch of cars are around me. [01:14:26.440 --> 01:14:28.440] These things are out, they're just me. [01:14:28.440 --> 01:14:31.440] And then posted in relation to me the citation. [01:14:31.440 --> 01:14:33.440] Now what I was done – and this took a few minutes [01:14:33.440 --> 01:14:36.440] because I'm going through an entire list of everything that happened. [01:14:36.440 --> 01:14:41.440] When I was done, I asked if the officer agrees with what I said [01:14:41.440 --> 01:14:45.440] in terms of those being the facts of the traffic stop. [01:14:45.440 --> 01:14:47.440] And the only thing he disagreed with, he said, yes, [01:14:47.440 --> 01:14:49.440] it's just that you were in the restaurant and not the center. [01:14:49.440 --> 01:14:50.440] I left that alone. [01:14:50.440 --> 01:14:56.440] I wasn't able to argue with it because I wanted him to agree to the fact that one, [01:14:56.440 --> 01:15:02.440] he did in fact pull me over and issue me a citation, [01:15:02.440 --> 01:15:08.440] which after doing my research on the statute, citation is considered a summons. [01:15:08.440 --> 01:15:16.440] Now the civil rules procedure are summons and rule 10 steps 1.070 subsection A [01:15:16.440 --> 01:15:22.440] that reads the summons is to be issued only by county judge or county court. [01:15:22.440 --> 01:15:26.440] So the officer said he didn't know that he did issue me the summons [01:15:26.440 --> 01:15:29.440] because he always agreed to the fact that that was what happened. [01:15:29.440 --> 01:15:32.440] But then I asked, what I asked was, [01:15:32.440 --> 01:15:36.440] what evidence does he have to show that when he singled out my car, [01:15:36.440 --> 01:15:38.440] I was the one that was doing that speech? [01:15:38.440 --> 01:15:41.440] Once I tried to ask that question, the judge said I was not allowed [01:15:41.440 --> 01:15:44.440] to ask the officer any questions. [01:15:44.440 --> 01:15:48.440] So at that point, I kind of lost my train of thought [01:15:48.440 --> 01:15:51.440] and I'm trying to keep straight on what I did. [01:15:51.440 --> 01:15:56.440] So at that point, trying to recall exactly what I did next. [01:15:56.440 --> 01:16:01.440] I think I told him that I filed, you know, Eddie, I left this out of my summary. [01:16:01.440 --> 01:16:03.440] I told him that I filed two motions. [01:16:03.440 --> 01:16:05.440] The judge immediately told me, yeah, I'm not looking at him. [01:16:05.440 --> 01:16:07.440] But he was looking at him the whole time that I'm talking, [01:16:07.440 --> 01:16:11.440] specifically the petition for the officer to show us only that, [01:16:11.440 --> 01:16:14.440] which goes back to him signing the summons. [01:16:14.440 --> 01:16:15.440] Okay, wait a minute, John. [01:16:15.440 --> 01:16:16.440] I have to interrupt you for a minute. [01:16:16.440 --> 01:16:20.440] I'm getting Skype chats and e-mails from people saying they can't understand you [01:16:20.440 --> 01:16:22.440] and I'm having a really hard time understanding you too. [01:16:22.440 --> 01:16:27.440] Are you still on this hands-free device? [01:16:27.440 --> 01:16:29.440] No, I'm talking directly into my phone. [01:16:29.440 --> 01:16:30.440] Okay, okay. [01:16:30.440 --> 01:16:31.440] Then maybe it's just your phone. [01:16:31.440 --> 01:16:32.440] Okay, all right. [01:16:32.440 --> 01:16:33.440] Well, we're about to go to break anyway. [01:16:33.440 --> 01:16:38.440] Just hold that thought and we'll take more from you on the other side. [01:16:38.440 --> 01:16:40.440] Okay, I'll call back in and put in a better signal. [01:16:40.440 --> 01:16:44.440] Okay, yeah, yeah, maybe on a different phone if you can. [01:16:44.440 --> 01:16:45.440] Okay. [01:16:45.440 --> 01:16:48.440] All right, thank you. [01:16:48.440 --> 01:16:49.440] Okay, this is the rule of law. [01:16:49.440 --> 01:16:50.440] We'll be right back. [01:16:50.440 --> 01:16:53.440] John's going to call back in hopefully with a better phone, a better signal, [01:16:53.440 --> 01:17:00.440] better something and then we'll also take key. [01:17:00.440 --> 01:17:04.440] They wrapped themselves in the American flag and they talked about preserving [01:17:04.440 --> 01:17:10.440] American heritage and principles and all the while they're working to merge us [01:17:10.440 --> 01:17:14.440] into a new world order where our sovereignty will be destroyed. [01:17:14.440 --> 01:17:18.440] We'll lose all connection with our American heritage. [01:17:18.440 --> 01:17:22.440] The author and lecturer G. Edward Griffin will be in Austin on Thursday, [01:17:22.440 --> 01:17:24.440] December 10th to give a free lecture. [01:17:24.440 --> 01:17:27.440] Mr. Griffin is well-known internationally for his best-selling book on the [01:17:27.440 --> 01:17:30.440] Federal Reserve System titled The Creature from Jekyll Island. [01:17:30.440 --> 01:17:34.440] This free lecture presented by Brave New Books will be at the AT&T [01:17:34.440 --> 01:17:38.440] Executive Conference Center located two blocks from the bookstore at [01:17:38.440 --> 01:17:40.440] 1900 University Avenue. [01:17:40.440 --> 01:17:43.440] It will begin at 7 p.m. on Thursday, December 10th. [01:17:43.440 --> 01:17:47.440] Afterward, a book signing with Mr. Griffin will take place at Brave New Books. [01:17:47.440 --> 01:17:52.440] Once again, a free lecture by G. Edward Griffin at the AT&T Executive Conference [01:17:52.440 --> 01:17:55.440] Center, December 10th at 7 p.m. [01:17:55.440 --> 01:18:00.440] If you have any questions, please call the bookstore at 512-480-2503. [01:18:00.440 --> 01:18:02.440] Thank you. [01:18:02.440 --> 01:18:20.440] Okay, we're back. [01:18:20.440 --> 01:18:23.440] I believe John has called back in, but before we go to John, [01:18:23.440 --> 01:18:25.440] I just want to make a quick announcement. [01:18:25.440 --> 01:18:27.440] I'll make it very fast. [01:18:27.440 --> 01:18:32.440] Okay, people, please do not use Bluetooth and speaker phones or [01:18:32.440 --> 01:18:37.440] hands-free devices when you call in unless it's a headset where the mic is [01:18:37.440 --> 01:18:40.440] right at your mouth. [01:18:40.440 --> 01:18:43.440] And let me explain why quickly. [01:18:43.440 --> 01:18:47.440] Microphones that are on speaker phones or onboard laptop mics if you're [01:18:47.440 --> 01:18:50.440] trying to call in on Skype or something like that or Bluetooth, [01:18:50.440 --> 01:18:53.440] what happens is the way they have to design those microphones in order for [01:18:53.440 --> 01:18:57.440] them to work, they are very far away from your mouth, okay, [01:18:57.440 --> 01:19:00.440] especially Bluetooth that are like on your ear. [01:19:00.440 --> 01:19:02.440] Speaker phones, way far away on your desk. [01:19:02.440 --> 01:19:07.440] They have to design those microphones to be very hot and it ends up picking up [01:19:07.440 --> 01:19:12.440] all this background noise and you sound very muffled and we can't understand [01:19:12.440 --> 01:19:16.440] what you're saying and we've got noise cancellation and echo cancellation on [01:19:16.440 --> 01:19:20.440] the phone lines and so it just makes it a total mess. [01:19:20.440 --> 01:19:25.440] Now what a few people have done when they call in and I give them the run-down [01:19:25.440 --> 01:19:28.440] when I'm screening the calls and I tell them don't use a speaker phone or a [01:19:28.440 --> 01:19:32.440] Bluetooth, they ask me, well, does this sound okay? [01:19:32.440 --> 01:19:37.440] Like they're trying to get away with it anyway and maybe if I would tell them [01:19:37.440 --> 01:19:40.440] it sounds okay, they would just go ahead and do it and everything would be [01:19:40.440 --> 01:19:44.440] fine and the thing is when I'm screening the call on the call screener phone, [01:19:44.440 --> 01:19:51.440] it may sound sort of okay but once it goes on the air, it's not going to. [01:19:51.440 --> 01:19:55.440] So people, please have some respect for the call screeners and the producers [01:19:55.440 --> 01:19:58.440] like myself and the other people that work for me. [01:19:58.440 --> 01:20:01.440] Please have some respect for the other people on the air that will be hearing [01:20:01.440 --> 01:20:02.440] this. [01:20:02.440 --> 01:20:05.440] Don't sit there and ask me if it's okay, if it sounds okay and try to get away [01:20:05.440 --> 01:20:06.440] with it anyway. [01:20:06.440 --> 01:20:10.440] Now I understand you don't want to sit there with a phone on your ear for 20 [01:20:10.440 --> 01:20:11.440] minutes while you're waiting on hold. [01:20:11.440 --> 01:20:15.440] Of course you're welcome to listen on a speaker phone or whatever when you're [01:20:15.440 --> 01:20:19.440] waiting on hold but when we call on your name and bring you up on the air, [01:20:19.440 --> 01:20:23.440] pick up the handset, turn off your Bluetooth, whatever, don't just try to get [01:20:23.440 --> 01:20:26.440] away with stuff with the call screener, okay, because it's very disrespectful. [01:20:26.440 --> 01:20:28.440] It's disrespectful to everyone. [01:20:28.440 --> 01:20:30.440] All right, we want to get this information out. [01:20:30.440 --> 01:20:31.440] It's very important. [01:20:31.440 --> 01:20:32.440] We want you to call in. [01:20:32.440 --> 01:20:36.440] We want to hear your questions but we are on the radio here and we need to hear [01:20:36.440 --> 01:20:37.440] what you're saying. [01:20:37.440 --> 01:20:40.440] Okay, so we're going to, that's all I'm going to say about this anymore so just [01:20:40.440 --> 01:20:41.440] have respect please. [01:20:41.440 --> 01:20:43.440] All right, we're going back to John. [01:20:43.440 --> 01:20:49.440] Okay, now Eddie, you wanted to make a comment here concerning what's going on [01:20:49.440 --> 01:20:50.440] with this judge. [01:20:50.440 --> 01:20:58.440] Yeah, what John's talking about is that the judge refuses to answer the [01:20:58.440 --> 01:21:01.440] question John's trying to ask him which is one, what are the nature of the [01:21:01.440 --> 01:21:05.440] charges against me and two, what is the judicial form in which these charges [01:21:05.440 --> 01:21:07.440] are being heard. [01:21:07.440 --> 01:21:11.440] The Constitution's both state and federal give us the right to know the [01:21:11.440 --> 01:21:13.440] nature of the charge against us. [01:21:13.440 --> 01:21:17.440] Are we being charged with a crime or with a civil matter? [01:21:17.440 --> 01:21:22.440] The forum that it's being heard in, is this a judicial, civil or [01:21:22.440 --> 01:21:25.440] administrative tribunal that I'm standing before? [01:21:25.440 --> 01:21:32.440] By law and by constitutional mandate, you are to be made aware of these things. [01:21:32.440 --> 01:21:38.440] Without the knowledge of these things you cannot prepare a proper defense [01:21:38.440 --> 01:21:43.440] because the rules for each and the necessities for each are different. [01:21:43.440 --> 01:21:50.440] So what John's getting at is that this judge is basically not answering the [01:21:50.440 --> 01:21:54.440] question, refusing to answer the question and forcing John through the [01:21:54.440 --> 01:21:55.440] process anyway. [01:21:55.440 --> 01:22:00.440] Now what I originally told John on this was if they proceed to do this, this [01:22:00.440 --> 01:22:01.440] is the problem. [01:22:01.440 --> 01:22:05.440] If the judge refuses to answer the questions and tell you the nature of the [01:22:05.440 --> 01:22:07.440] charge, that's a crime. [01:22:07.440 --> 01:22:12.440] It is a violation of the Constitution, the laws of the state and the duties [01:22:12.440 --> 01:22:13.440] of his office. [01:22:13.440 --> 01:22:18.440] It is also meaning that they are forcing him through an administrative [01:22:18.440 --> 01:22:24.440] proceeding which has no jurisdiction over him and to find him guilty in an [01:22:24.440 --> 01:22:29.440] administrative proceeding without a judicial review is acting on a bill of [01:22:29.440 --> 01:22:32.440] pains and penalties or a bill of attainder. [01:22:32.440 --> 01:22:37.440] And those are the things that John needs to file paperwork on and file [01:22:37.440 --> 01:22:40.440] criminal charges against this judge regarding. [01:22:40.440 --> 01:22:43.440] So that's where we're at. [01:22:43.440 --> 01:22:45.440] All right, John, did you get that? [01:22:45.440 --> 01:22:47.440] I did get that. [01:22:47.440 --> 01:22:50.440] And Eddie, did you receive the emails I sent you regarding the petition to [01:22:50.440 --> 01:22:53.440] show authority to act that I filed as well as my summary of the trial? [01:22:53.440 --> 01:22:57.440] I do not think so, John. [01:22:57.440 --> 01:23:00.440] I just got through checking both emails and I have not seen it. [01:23:00.440 --> 01:23:01.440] Okay. [01:23:01.440 --> 01:23:04.440] For some reason before, a week or two ago, I sent something to you. [01:23:04.440 --> 01:23:06.440] For some reason, it's not getting through. [01:23:06.440 --> 01:23:09.440] I'm pretty sure I got the right email address because I'm just replying to [01:23:09.440 --> 01:23:10.440] what you sent me before. [01:23:10.440 --> 01:23:11.440] Yeah. [01:23:11.440 --> 01:23:16.440] Now, I do have a couple of emails from you that I just haven't got that one. [01:23:16.440 --> 01:23:17.440] Okay. [01:23:17.440 --> 01:23:24.440] So in terms of my question to the judge, you know, when he first asked me after [01:23:24.440 --> 01:23:28.440] the deputy gave his testimony, he said, do you have questions for the deputy? [01:23:28.440 --> 01:23:31.440] I said, the first thing I said to him is I have questions a couple for you. [01:23:31.440 --> 01:23:33.440] He said, all right, what are they? [01:23:33.440 --> 01:23:34.440] I did ask him. [01:23:34.440 --> 01:23:36.440] I said, I would like to know what type of proceeding I'm in. [01:23:36.440 --> 01:23:39.440] You know, he says to me, you want a traffic infraction trial. [01:23:39.440 --> 01:23:41.440] So at this point, he doesn't really want to tell me. [01:23:41.440 --> 01:23:44.440] I said to him, well, I'd like to know what type of form I'm in. [01:23:44.440 --> 01:23:49.440] The judge said to me, I'm a county judge and this is a county courtroom, so I [01:23:49.440 --> 01:23:53.440] hear matters that are of a quasi-criminal civil nature. [01:23:53.440 --> 01:23:55.440] So I do a little of both. [01:23:55.440 --> 01:23:59.440] You know, so I said, okay, as I understand this, there are three types of [01:23:59.440 --> 01:24:02.440] proceedings, administrative, judicial, and civil. [01:24:02.440 --> 01:24:04.440] I'd like to know which one I'm standing in right now. [01:24:04.440 --> 01:24:07.440] He looked at me and said, this is a judicial form. [01:24:07.440 --> 01:24:11.440] I repeated his statement and I said, this is a judicial form? [01:24:11.440 --> 01:24:13.440] And he says, yes, it is. [01:24:13.440 --> 01:24:15.440] I said, well, if this is a judicial form, then that is intended to hear [01:24:15.440 --> 01:24:17.440] criminal matters. [01:24:17.440 --> 01:24:20.440] I'm being charged with violations of the Florida Motor Vehicle Code. [01:24:20.440 --> 01:24:24.440] He interrupted me and said, you're not being charged with violations of the [01:24:24.440 --> 01:24:26.440] Florida Motor Vehicle Code. [01:24:26.440 --> 01:24:30.440] You're being charged with violations of state statutes 316 and 320, which, you [01:24:30.440 --> 01:24:32.440] know, he's being specific. [01:24:32.440 --> 01:24:36.440] He's trying to make it sound differently, but the bottom line is the same thing. [01:24:36.440 --> 01:24:39.440] I said, okay, right, statutes 316 and 320. [01:24:39.440 --> 01:24:42.440] But if this is a criminal courtroom, then where is the prosecutor? [01:24:42.440 --> 01:24:45.440] I don't see a prosecutor or an opposing counsel. [01:24:45.440 --> 01:24:48.440] So he replies to me, there is no prosecutor. [01:24:48.440 --> 01:24:50.440] Now do you want to give your testimony? [01:24:50.440 --> 01:24:54.440] I paused for a moment and I'm thinking to myself, you know, he said, there is [01:24:54.440 --> 01:24:56.440] no prosecutor? [01:24:56.440 --> 01:24:57.440] I said, there is no prosecutor? [01:24:57.440 --> 01:24:59.440] He said, yes, there is no prosecutor. [01:24:59.440 --> 01:25:00.440] I said, okay. [01:25:00.440 --> 01:25:02.440] So I began reading my testimony. [01:25:02.440 --> 01:25:03.440] He's throwing me off. [01:25:03.440 --> 01:25:05.440] This is the first time I've ever done this. [01:25:05.440 --> 01:25:09.440] So he throws me off basically trying to steamroll me and I'm not basically [01:25:09.440 --> 01:25:12.440] sticking to what I should have been doing. [01:25:12.440 --> 01:25:14.440] I should have been throwing some objections at him. [01:25:14.440 --> 01:25:19.440] Again, I don't understand the law as well as he does and the proceedings are [01:25:19.440 --> 01:25:24.440] civil or the criminal proceeding of the rules of the proceedings. [01:25:24.440 --> 01:25:30.440] So what I did is I then went into an accounting of the traffic stop. [01:25:30.440 --> 01:25:33.440] Now when I went through this, I went from start to finish. [01:25:33.440 --> 01:25:39.440] And the one thing I got when I did this was I got the officer to do two things. [01:25:39.440 --> 01:25:45.440] I got him to when I was done reading it, I said, does the officer agree that [01:25:45.440 --> 01:25:48.440] this is, that these are the facts of the case? [01:25:48.440 --> 01:25:52.440] And he stated, yes, but you went in the left lane at the center lane and I [01:25:52.440 --> 01:25:54.440] wasn't going to argue it because it really didn't matter. [01:25:54.440 --> 01:26:00.440] The fact of the matter is he agreed that we issued these citations that were [01:26:00.440 --> 01:26:07.440] for speeding and expiring registration, but he also agreed the fact that he [01:26:07.440 --> 01:26:09.440] issued the citation. [01:26:09.440 --> 01:26:18.440] Now what I found in the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure, Rule 1.070, [01:26:18.440 --> 01:26:22.440] Subsection A, it states specifically there are only two people that are [01:26:22.440 --> 01:26:30.440] allowed to issue a summon, which by definition within one of the chapters of [01:26:30.440 --> 01:26:34.440] Florida Motor Vehicle Code, a citation is a summon. [01:26:34.440 --> 01:26:38.440] So the two people that can issue this are county judge or county clerk. [01:26:38.440 --> 01:26:46.440] So now I have him, when I issued, I'm sorry, when I filed my petition to show [01:26:46.440 --> 01:26:52.440] authority to act with my file and the judge had it in front of him, he told me [01:26:52.440 --> 01:26:54.440] I'm just not going to read it. [01:26:54.440 --> 01:26:58.440] He kind of was glancing through it and I could tell he didn't know what to make [01:26:58.440 --> 01:27:00.440] of it because there was a lot of it in front of him. [01:27:00.440 --> 01:27:02.440] It was like a 36-page filing. [01:27:02.440 --> 01:27:05.440] He didn't know what to make of it and he wasn't going to take the time to read [01:27:05.440 --> 01:27:07.440] it, but he knew he didn't want to deal with it. [01:27:07.440 --> 01:27:12.440] But the bottom line is that my petition to show authority to act with it, he [01:27:12.440 --> 01:27:16.440] had to show how he had authority to issue me a summon, which he doesn't have [01:27:16.440 --> 01:27:20.440] and he didn't have the ability to show me that and the judge wasn't going to [01:27:20.440 --> 01:27:23.440] demand that of him and he just kind of went right over it. [01:27:23.440 --> 01:27:27.440] So when he said he wasn't going to look at that, I went on to reading, because [01:27:27.440 --> 01:27:33.440] now my testimony had been given, I went on to read the definitions of both [01:27:33.440 --> 01:27:35.440] statutes that I was being charged with. [01:27:35.440 --> 01:27:41.440] I started with reading the one regarding speeding and basically how the basis [01:27:41.440 --> 01:27:46.440] of the speed limits are set on traffic investigations and any speed that is [01:27:46.440 --> 01:27:49.440] greater or less than a reasonable or safe speed under the conditions found to [01:27:49.440 --> 01:27:50.440] exist. [01:27:50.440 --> 01:27:54.440] I said, well, you know, given the fact that it's determined based on a [01:27:54.440 --> 01:27:59.440] reasonable and safe speed limit, you know, from my traffic investigation, I [01:27:59.440 --> 01:28:05.440] said, well, you know, how can you, I said that I repeated that section and then [01:28:05.440 --> 01:28:08.440] I said I was not traveling at a speed that was greater than reasonable. [01:28:08.440 --> 01:28:12.440] It was safe under conditions because I did not cause him, the deputy, any harm [01:28:12.440 --> 01:28:14.440] to himself or his property. [01:28:14.440 --> 01:28:17.440] And before I could get any further into it, the judge just completely [01:28:17.440 --> 01:28:21.440] interrupted me, said that, you know, he said pick up one face, read the [01:28:21.440 --> 01:28:24.440] numbers, said guilty, picked up the other one, guilty. [01:28:24.440 --> 01:28:27.440] Told me I was going to be fined a maximum of $500 on each and my license was [01:28:27.440 --> 01:28:29.440] suspended for a year. [01:28:29.440 --> 01:28:32.440] And then he just turned and called the next file for the next person to come [01:28:32.440 --> 01:28:36.440] up. [01:28:36.440 --> 01:28:39.440] Yep, you definitely need to follow through with criminal charges against [01:28:39.440 --> 01:28:41.440] this judge. [01:28:41.440 --> 01:28:47.440] Yeah, I mean, and I looked within the Florida, I looked up, as you suggested [01:28:47.440 --> 01:28:51.440] for me to look up filing for a trial to know them. [01:28:51.440 --> 01:28:57.440] And there are, it applies, it looks to me like it applies to rules, [01:28:57.440 --> 01:29:03.440] arbitration, but I don't know if a trial with a civil trial was supposed to be [01:29:03.440 --> 01:29:07.440] a civil trial, but this was of course held in a judicial form by his own [01:29:07.440 --> 01:29:12.440] admission and that has been the wrong form, so that's not the subject matter [01:29:12.440 --> 01:29:14.440] jurisdiction. [01:29:14.440 --> 01:29:19.440] The first thing is, John, you were not in a judicial form, okay? [01:29:19.440 --> 01:29:20.440] Okay. [01:29:20.440 --> 01:29:24.440] What he did, there is no judicial rules for. [01:29:24.440 --> 01:29:27.440] What he did was totally administrative, okay? [01:29:27.440 --> 01:29:29.440] Okay. [01:29:29.440 --> 01:29:33.440] And the charges against you were administrative. [01:29:33.440 --> 01:29:35.440] And they say that on their face. [01:29:35.440 --> 01:29:38.440] We looked at the statute on that, that's exactly what they are. [01:29:38.440 --> 01:29:40.440] Okay. [01:29:40.440 --> 01:29:43.440] Okay, listen, John, do you need to hang on the line some more? [01:29:43.440 --> 01:29:46.440] Well, I mean, I don't know if this fog out of here is going to have any more [01:29:46.440 --> 01:29:50.440] advice for me yet, I will, but otherwise I really wouldn't know what happened [01:29:50.440 --> 01:29:51.440] here. [01:29:51.440 --> 01:29:52.440] Okay. [01:29:52.440 --> 01:29:54.440] The one with the criminal charges is what we're going to need to do next. [01:29:54.440 --> 01:29:56.440] All right, then John, we're going to let you go and then we'll take Keith on [01:29:56.440 --> 01:29:59.440] the other side. [01:29:59.440 --> 01:30:02.440] This is Randall Kelton from Rule of Law Radio. [01:30:02.440 --> 01:30:06.440] Many of you have been helped by the informative programming on 90.1.

[01:31:34.440 --> 01:31:35.440] We only got one other caller on the board. [01:31:35.440 --> 01:31:37.440] So come on, people. [01:31:37.440 --> 01:31:40.440] Everyone always waits for the last minute to call in and there ends up being [01:31:40.440 --> 01:31:43.440] like 15 callers on the board and there's like 10 minutes left. [01:31:43.440 --> 01:31:44.440] So call in. [01:31:44.440 --> 01:31:45.440] Don't wait till the last minute. [01:31:45.440 --> 01:31:48.440] We got Keith from Texas. [01:31:48.440 --> 01:31:49.440] All right, Keith, thanks for calling in. [01:31:49.440 --> 01:31:51.440] What's on your mind tonight? [01:31:51.440 --> 01:31:52.440] Hey, guys. [01:31:52.440 --> 01:31:55.440] I'll give them to draw it out some. [01:31:55.440 --> 01:31:57.440] Thank you all for a while. [01:31:57.440 --> 01:31:58.440] Hey, Eddie. [01:31:58.440 --> 01:32:01.440] Just tell us the story, dude. [01:32:01.440 --> 01:32:03.440] It never rains in Texas. [01:32:03.440 --> 01:32:06.440] That's a bunch of Yankee propaganda. [01:32:06.440 --> 01:32:10.440] The ongoing thug of Narnia. [01:32:10.440 --> 01:32:12.440] Eddie, you were right about DPS. [01:32:12.440 --> 01:32:20.440] I open records requested for the Texas administrative 413. [01:32:20.440 --> 01:32:21.440] Right. [01:32:21.440 --> 01:32:24.440] Certifications is exactly what you said it was. [01:32:24.440 --> 01:32:29.440] They won't even take a Freedom of Information Act request to do that. [01:32:29.440 --> 01:32:30.440] Right. [01:32:30.440 --> 01:32:37.440] The DPS has their training records specifically accepted under the FOIA laws of Texas. [01:32:37.440 --> 01:32:39.440] So they do accept those or they do not? [01:32:39.440 --> 01:32:43.440] No, they're protected so that they don't have to disclose that information. [01:32:43.440 --> 01:32:46.440] Yeah, and besides, FOIA is federal anyway. [01:32:46.440 --> 01:32:49.440] It states that it's called open record laws. [01:32:49.440 --> 01:32:52.440] So people need to understand the difference. [01:32:52.440 --> 01:32:55.440] So when they're trying to get information from whatever agency, [01:32:55.440 --> 01:32:59.440] you have to say if it's a state agency, [01:32:59.440 --> 01:33:02.440] you have to say that you're requesting it under the Open Records Act, [01:33:02.440 --> 01:33:07.440] not FOIA or else they'll laugh at you because FOIA does not apply. [01:33:07.440 --> 01:33:09.440] FOIA is only for federal agencies. [01:33:09.440 --> 01:33:12.440] On my website, I have a blank information request, [01:33:12.440 --> 01:33:19.440] and it requests it under the Texas Open Records Open Government Act, [01:33:19.440 --> 01:33:26.440] the Freedom of Information Act, 124 Code of Criminal Procedure, [01:33:26.440 --> 01:33:29.440] or any other relevant statute. [01:33:29.440 --> 01:33:31.440] Take your pick, Bummer. [01:33:31.440 --> 01:33:33.440] Here's the other thing. [01:33:33.440 --> 01:33:36.440] If memory serves on what the statute specifically states, [01:33:36.440 --> 01:33:43.440] that protection exists only relevant to the Department of Public Safety officers. [01:33:43.440 --> 01:33:47.440] It does not apply to the local law enforcement officers. [01:33:47.440 --> 01:33:49.440] Yeah, I didn't know that. [01:33:49.440 --> 01:33:50.440] Okay. [01:33:50.440 --> 01:33:54.440] So if this is a local officer we're dealing with, [01:33:54.440 --> 01:33:58.440] then he's not protected under that if I'm not totally mistaken. [01:33:58.440 --> 01:34:00.440] Really? [01:34:00.440 --> 01:34:05.440] Yeah, the statute specifically applies to the Department of Public Safety. [01:34:05.440 --> 01:34:07.440] Well, then they gave me that information. [01:34:07.440 --> 01:34:10.440] It is Chapter 411 of the Government Code, [01:34:10.440 --> 01:34:14.440] which deals strictly with Department of Public Safety. [01:34:14.440 --> 01:34:17.440] That's where that exception exists. [01:34:17.440 --> 01:34:19.440] It's Chapter 11. [01:34:19.440 --> 01:34:22.440] Chapter 411 of the Government Code. [01:34:22.440 --> 01:34:27.440] It even had actually gone over 413. [01:34:27.440 --> 01:34:28.440] No, no, no. [01:34:28.440 --> 01:34:30.440] You're thinking a 4.13 Administrative Code. [01:34:30.440 --> 01:34:32.440] Exactly. [01:34:32.440 --> 01:34:38.440] No, I'm talking about the Department of Public Safety's actual other set of statutes, [01:34:38.440 --> 01:34:43.440] which is in the Government Code, Chapter 411. [01:34:43.440 --> 01:34:47.440] Okay, so under the circumstances I'm trying to get – I'm doing what I'm trying to do. [01:34:47.440 --> 01:34:51.440] I want to send these people an open government request. [01:34:51.440 --> 01:34:56.440] Then they are supposed to perform, correct? [01:34:56.440 --> 01:34:58.440] That's correct. [01:34:58.440 --> 01:35:05.440] Now, you can stipulate that the records you're requesting is for a local law enforcement officer, [01:35:05.440 --> 01:35:15.440] and a local officer is exempt from the non-disclosure requirements of Chapter 411. [01:35:15.440 --> 01:35:22.440] Okay, so that takes me right back to non-performance. [01:35:22.440 --> 01:35:24.440] Am I missing something? [01:35:24.440 --> 01:35:25.440] No, no, no. [01:35:25.440 --> 01:35:26.440] That would be correct. [01:35:26.440 --> 01:35:33.440] You have a complaint if they did not respond within the amount of time that the Open Records Act requires. [01:35:33.440 --> 01:35:36.440] Exactly, right, 20 days I believe it is. [01:35:36.440 --> 01:35:37.440] Right. [01:35:37.440 --> 01:35:41.440] Okay, so I sent that to them. [01:35:41.440 --> 01:35:47.440] But now you did specify the training records that you sought belong to a local law enforcement, right? [01:35:47.440 --> 01:35:51.440] Yes, it is a Harris County Deputy, Jira. [01:35:51.440 --> 01:35:56.440] Okay, then they're required to give that to you unless they can cough up another statute that says [01:35:56.440 --> 01:36:01.440] they can exempt their local agents, but the one in 411 does not say that. [01:36:01.440 --> 01:36:04.440] 411 deals strictly with the Department of Public Safety. [01:36:04.440 --> 01:36:06.440] And that's Government Code 411? [01:36:06.440 --> 01:36:07.440] Yes. [01:36:07.440 --> 01:36:13.440] Because that may come in handy at some point in time that I have a problem with the Department of Public Safety. [01:36:13.440 --> 01:36:16.440] I'm sure they would probably have been down that road a time or two. [01:36:16.440 --> 01:36:22.440] Yeah, the administrative code is what sets up all of their duties as to what their mission statement, [01:36:22.440 --> 01:36:29.440] training requirements and so on and so forth are and what traffic laws they're allowed to enforce and with who. [01:36:29.440 --> 01:36:36.440] 411 deals strictly with the administrative internal workings of the Department of Public Safety and the Government Code. [01:36:36.440 --> 01:36:37.440] Okay. [01:36:37.440 --> 01:36:41.440] Because, you know, I was thinking about that and I thought, well, you know what, once you get past this, [01:36:41.440 --> 01:36:48.440] in my particular instance, this is one of those things where there was, I guess, just to kind of go back and refresh, [01:36:48.440 --> 01:36:51.440] there was no deep process in my particular instance whatsoever. [01:36:51.440 --> 01:36:58.440] I'd had a previous criminal problem with this particular deputy, with five other deputies, [01:36:58.440 --> 01:37:03.440] that had came in and taken things that they weren't supposed to and did things that they weren't supposed to [01:37:03.440 --> 01:37:06.440] and then essentially followed me and someone else. [01:37:06.440 --> 01:37:08.440] And then three weeks later I wound up getting pulled over. [01:37:08.440 --> 01:37:09.440] I got a little bit melty. [01:37:09.440 --> 01:37:11.440] I got taken to jail. [01:37:11.440 --> 01:37:12.440] That's how this happened. [01:37:12.440 --> 01:37:17.440] And then I went down and I sat for 28 hours. [01:37:17.440 --> 01:37:22.440] I'm sure Randy can reflect finally and didn't see anybody. [01:37:22.440 --> 01:37:23.440] Right. [01:37:23.440 --> 01:37:30.440] Nothing. And then a week later I didn't even have an address for any place to go. [01:37:30.440 --> 01:37:31.440] Nothing. [01:37:31.440 --> 01:37:34.440] I mean, it's like, you know, call out, well, what time does court start? [01:37:34.440 --> 01:37:35.440] You know, when am I supposed to be there? [01:37:35.440 --> 01:37:36.440] What court? [01:37:36.440 --> 01:37:38.440] I mean, honestly, that's how it went. [01:37:38.440 --> 01:37:40.440] The deputy signed up on the bond. [01:37:40.440 --> 01:37:43.440] I never saw a magistrate, you know. [01:37:43.440 --> 01:37:44.440] Okay. [01:37:44.440 --> 01:37:46.440] Well, now you've got criminal charges against the deputy then. [01:37:46.440 --> 01:37:47.440] Exactly. [01:37:47.440 --> 01:37:56.440] And today, through what, three days ago, well, I guess it's last Friday, [01:37:56.440 --> 01:38:05.440] I sent, yet again, there were 22 criminal complaints that involved the prosecutor, [01:38:05.440 --> 01:38:08.440] the judge, and this particular deputy. [01:38:08.440 --> 01:38:11.440] Those are the only three that I'm really concerned about. [01:38:11.440 --> 01:38:12.440] I concern a whole bunch of people. [01:38:12.440 --> 01:38:19.440] I haven't even included any jailers because I've also got 22 complaints, [01:38:19.440 --> 01:38:24.440] criminal complaints, for violation of the Open Records Request Act for a [01:38:24.440 --> 01:38:30.440] variety of departments, predominantly clerks and people of that nature. [01:38:30.440 --> 01:38:35.440] And different, and I've particularly had a problem with different departments [01:38:35.440 --> 01:38:38.440] insofar as bonding issues are concerned. [01:38:38.440 --> 01:38:43.440] Some public record, public official bonds that I'm trying to get copies of [01:38:43.440 --> 01:38:47.440] are just numbers something because I've got treaty companies, [01:38:47.440 --> 01:38:51.440] one treaty company that demands bond numbers. [01:38:51.440 --> 01:38:53.440] And I have called the district attorney's office. [01:38:53.440 --> 01:38:55.440] I've called everybody. [01:38:55.440 --> 01:38:58.440] I've said, I'm going to get these numbers one way, you know, [01:38:58.440 --> 01:39:00.440] in some shape, form, or fashion. [01:39:00.440 --> 01:39:02.440] I'm going to come up with these. [01:39:02.440 --> 01:39:03.440] You people don't want to give them to me. [01:39:03.440 --> 01:39:05.440] I've sent you open government requests. [01:39:05.440 --> 01:39:08.440] This is public information. [01:39:08.440 --> 01:39:10.440] What's the problem? [01:39:10.440 --> 01:39:11.440] To get them to the surety company. [01:39:11.440 --> 01:39:14.440] And I said, you won't deal with me with these criminal complaints, [01:39:14.440 --> 01:39:15.440] although I just sent you another 20. [01:39:15.440 --> 01:39:18.440] And I called the guy today, and he's like, well, I can't talk to you. [01:39:18.440 --> 01:39:19.440] That's why can't you talk to me? [01:39:19.440 --> 01:39:20.440] He said, you have an attorney. [01:39:20.440 --> 01:39:22.440] I said, where were you two months ago? [01:39:22.440 --> 01:39:24.440] Two months ago, I didn't have anybody. [01:39:24.440 --> 01:39:27.440] I was handling this all by myself, you know. [01:39:27.440 --> 01:39:30.440] And you sat on those for a month. [01:39:30.440 --> 01:39:31.440] Where were you then? [01:39:31.440 --> 01:39:35.440] I said, what would you do under the circumstances when the guy hung up on me? [01:39:35.440 --> 01:39:39.440] You know, that's how this has gone. [01:39:39.440 --> 01:39:42.440] So what is your attorney doing? [01:39:42.440 --> 01:39:46.440] He won't do this. [01:39:46.440 --> 01:39:48.440] He won't let do this. [01:39:48.440 --> 01:39:50.440] Of course not. [01:39:50.440 --> 01:39:53.440] Attorneys will never do these kinds of things. [01:39:53.440 --> 01:39:55.440] You have to do them yourself. [01:39:55.440 --> 01:40:00.440] Randy, tell your attorney, you know, Bubba, life is tough. [01:40:00.440 --> 01:40:02.440] But you think you're afraid of this judge? [01:40:02.440 --> 01:40:05.440] Wait until I get through with you in malpractice court. [01:40:05.440 --> 01:40:06.440] Exactly. [01:40:06.440 --> 01:40:08.440] And here's something else I did. [01:40:08.440 --> 01:40:13.440] I sent a letter to the administrative judge for the second district, [01:40:13.440 --> 01:40:18.440] and that includes Harris County, talked about just the letter, [01:40:18.440 --> 01:40:23.440] essentially spelled out everything that had taken place since it started, [01:40:23.440 --> 01:40:30.440] and asking to send a petition to the court of inquiry. [01:40:30.440 --> 01:40:33.440] I haven't done that yet, or a mandamus. [01:40:33.440 --> 01:40:44.440] Under the circumstances, what he does is he essentially reviews reclusals. [01:40:44.440 --> 01:40:50.440] And under the circumstances, I've sent a challenge to the jurisdiction of the court. [01:40:50.440 --> 01:40:57.440] And with that, a motion for the disqualification of the presiding judge, [01:40:57.440 --> 01:41:02.440] and neither one of those have been honored whatsoever. [01:41:02.440 --> 01:41:08.440] I mean, there's been no, you know, offering up, you know, where's the jurisdiction lie, [01:41:08.440 --> 01:41:12.440] and there's been absolutely no review of this. [01:41:12.440 --> 01:41:16.440] Have you filed a judicial conduct complaint against the judge? [01:41:16.440 --> 01:41:19.440] With the judicial commission in Austin, yes, I have. [01:41:19.440 --> 01:41:21.440] And I've called. [01:41:21.440 --> 01:41:25.440] And I've called Bart Rubinstein, and everything. [01:41:25.440 --> 01:41:30.440] This judge has 200 pages of documentation for me. [01:41:30.440 --> 01:41:32.440] It's like a phone book. [01:41:32.440 --> 01:41:34.440] Have you sued the judge personally? [01:41:34.440 --> 01:41:36.440] I'm working on it now. [01:41:36.440 --> 01:41:37.440] I'm working on the civil suit. [01:41:37.440 --> 01:41:43.440] I've already sent tort letters for both her and the prosecutor to the surety company. [01:41:43.440 --> 01:41:50.440] And I've sent, once for the deputy, I've sent to the county commissioner's court, [01:41:50.440 --> 01:41:55.440] and I also sent a copy of that to the sheriff, just so he knew, [01:41:55.440 --> 01:41:58.440] because he had a copy of the criminal complaint, too. [01:41:58.440 --> 01:42:02.440] And when I sent this stuff to DPS, and there again for this administrative stuff, [01:42:02.440 --> 01:42:06.440] it's really not material to what I'm trying to accomplish. [01:42:06.440 --> 01:42:08.440] But hey, what the heck, right? [01:42:08.440 --> 01:42:11.440] If you're up to bat, you might as well go ahead and hit a few more balls. [01:42:11.440 --> 01:42:13.440] I mean, if I go ahead and pull this thing out of the fire, [01:42:13.440 --> 01:42:16.440] and the guy doesn't have a certification, well, that's just... [01:42:16.440 --> 01:42:19.440] And it's beneficial for me, too, because it's a good experience. [01:42:19.440 --> 01:42:23.440] Because then I can come on your show, and I can say, here's what you should do. [01:42:23.440 --> 01:42:29.440] You need to do open records requests, Department of Public Safety, and ask for this stuff. [01:42:29.440 --> 01:42:30.440] Ask these people. [01:42:30.440 --> 01:42:32.440] Make these people perform. [01:42:32.440 --> 01:42:34.440] That's their job. [01:42:34.440 --> 01:42:37.440] And if there's one thing that I really, really understand about this, [01:42:37.440 --> 01:42:42.440] and I think it's jurisdictionary spells itself, although I don't have jurisdictionary. [01:42:42.440 --> 01:42:43.440] I think I... [01:42:43.440 --> 01:42:46.440] If you're going to do a civil suit, you better get it, [01:42:46.440 --> 01:42:48.440] especially since you're having to do this pro se. [01:42:48.440 --> 01:42:50.440] You really need to understand. [01:42:50.440 --> 01:42:52.440] Well, I'm not an attorney, but he's very, but he's ineffective. [01:42:52.440 --> 01:42:57.440] Your attorney's not going to want to represent you when you sue the judge personally. [01:42:57.440 --> 01:42:58.440] Oh, I know. [01:42:58.440 --> 01:43:00.440] Yeah, that's what I'm saying. [01:43:00.440 --> 01:43:06.440] When you sue the judge personally, you're 99.9% for sure you're going to have to do that pro se. [01:43:06.440 --> 01:43:09.440] You're going to have to get jurisdictionary. [01:43:09.440 --> 01:43:11.440] Well, no, yeah, and I would do that myself. [01:43:11.440 --> 01:43:13.440] I would do all that paperwork and all that. [01:43:13.440 --> 01:43:17.440] Yes, so you really need to get jurisdictionary if you want to prepare the lawsuit correctly, [01:43:17.440 --> 01:43:20.440] or else you're going to get railroaded in court, I promise you. [01:43:20.440 --> 01:43:23.440] But the thing about it is, under the circumstances, [01:43:23.440 --> 01:43:28.440] with as ragged as the jurisprudence is with these courts, [01:43:28.440 --> 01:43:34.440] for people that, even if you just go in for a traffic ticket, you know, you should do these things. [01:43:34.440 --> 01:43:35.440] Yes, absolutely. [01:43:35.440 --> 01:43:37.440] Listen, Keith, we have some other callers on the board. [01:43:37.440 --> 01:43:38.440] We only got one segment left. [01:43:38.440 --> 01:43:40.440] If you don't have anything else of pertinence, [01:43:40.440 --> 01:43:43.440] then we need to let you go so we can take the rest of our calls. [01:43:43.440 --> 01:43:46.440] Okay, thank you, Keith, and good job. [01:43:46.440 --> 01:43:47.440] Good job, Keith. [01:43:47.440 --> 01:43:49.440] All right, we got Dominic from Texas. [01:43:49.440 --> 01:43:51.440] I think there's some others calling in. [01:43:51.440 --> 01:43:55.440] We got one more segment, 512-646-1984. [01:43:55.440 --> 01:44:00.440] We will be right back. [01:44:00.440 --> 01:44:07.440] They wrapped themselves in the American flag, and they talked about preserving American heritage and principles, [01:44:07.440 --> 01:44:14.440] and all the while, they're working to merge us into a new world order where our sovereignty will be destroyed [01:44:14.440 --> 01:44:18.440] and we'll lose all connection with our American heritage. [01:44:18.440 --> 01:44:24.440] Author and lecturer G. Edward Griffin will be in Austin on Thursday, December 10th, to give a free lecture. [01:44:24.440 --> 01:44:28.440] Mr. Griffin is well-known internationally for his best-selling book on the Federal Reserve System [01:44:28.440 --> 01:44:30.440] titled The Creature from Jekyll Island. [01:44:30.440 --> 01:44:35.440] This free lecture presented by Brave New Books will be at the AT&T Executive Conference Center [01:44:35.440 --> 01:44:39.440] located two blocks from the bookstore at 1900 University Avenue. [01:44:39.440 --> 01:44:43.440] It will begin at 7 p.m. on Thursday, December 10th. [01:44:43.440 --> 01:44:47.440] Afterward, a book signing with Mr. Griffin will take place at Brave New Books. [01:44:47.440 --> 01:44:54.440] Once again, a free lecture by G. Edward Griffin at the AT&T Executive Conference Center, December 10th, at 7 p.m. [01:44:54.440 --> 01:45:01.440] If you have any questions, please call the bookstore at 512-480-2503. Thank you. [01:45:24.440 --> 01:45:52.440] Okay, we are back. [01:45:52.440 --> 01:45:58.440] We know John will. He will balance out the scales. [01:45:58.440 --> 01:46:01.440] We are going now to Dominic in Texas. [01:46:01.440 --> 01:46:04.440] Dominic, thanks for calling in. What's on your mind tonight? [01:46:04.440 --> 01:46:05.440] Hey, how are you all doing today? [01:46:05.440 --> 01:46:06.440] Oh, we're doing pretty good. [01:46:06.440 --> 01:46:10.440] That's good. I have to be set straight on one thing. [01:46:10.440 --> 01:46:20.440] I'm going to need your help because I was talking to some friends about the transportation code under time and place to appear. [01:46:20.440 --> 01:46:29.440] When I was reading it, I was reading that there has to be 10 days from the period of arrest unless a person demands an earlier hearing. [01:46:29.440 --> 01:46:38.440] Could this be the reason why they have the honor before because a person does have the right to demand an earlier hearing? [01:46:38.440 --> 01:46:55.440] Well, what the statute specifically says is they must state a date and time to appear at least 10 days after the date of arrest. [01:46:55.440 --> 01:47:09.440] That's 543-006 paragraph A. Paragraph B says that it must state a date to appear before a magistrate. [01:47:09.440 --> 01:47:25.440] That's because I think it's 2711 says that in any criminal charge, you must be given at least 10 days in time in which to file motions in your behalf. [01:47:25.440 --> 01:47:35.440] That's in there to be in paramateria with the Code of Criminal Procedure in other places. [01:47:35.440 --> 01:47:44.440] It's very specific in the code. [01:47:44.440 --> 01:47:47.440] No, no, no. Wait, wait. You're looking at something else. [01:47:47.440 --> 01:47:53.440] No, I'm looking at 543.006. [01:47:53.440 --> 01:47:57.440] Y'all both said the same statute number at the same time. [01:47:57.440 --> 01:48:01.440] Randy, can you hear Dominic okay? [01:48:01.440 --> 01:48:04.440] Randy, can you hear Dominic okay? [01:48:04.440 --> 01:48:06.440] When we both speak, one of us gets... [01:48:06.440 --> 01:48:10.440] Okay, okay, okay, okay because Dominic was talking and y'all were both talking. [01:48:10.440 --> 01:48:18.440] 1406 says to take you before a magistrate unless you're within 48 hours unless you... [01:48:18.440 --> 01:48:19.440] Oh, I'm sorry. [01:48:19.440 --> 01:48:24.440] This is traffic code where you demand to be taken before an officer, before a magistrate. [01:48:24.440 --> 01:48:30.440] You can refuse to sign and demand to be taken directly to a magistrate. [01:48:30.440 --> 01:48:39.440] 006 goes to when you sign the promise to appear. [01:48:39.440 --> 01:48:44.440] These are the conditions that must be in the promise to appear. [01:48:44.440 --> 01:48:50.440] So this is a condition, a situation where you haven't demanded to be taken directly to a magistrate, [01:48:50.440 --> 01:48:55.440] but rather you've agreed to sign the promise to appear. [01:48:55.440 --> 01:49:00.440] Yes, because if you don't appear, then you get taken directly to the magistrate. [01:49:00.440 --> 01:49:06.440] But you can sign and then say, you know what, I don't want to go 10 days. [01:49:06.440 --> 01:49:09.440] I want to go in 5 days. [01:49:09.440 --> 01:49:12.440] And that's the way I understood that this gave... [01:49:12.440 --> 01:49:15.440] Well, yeah, you can go any time you want to. [01:49:15.440 --> 01:49:20.440] But the only thing is it does not specify in here, okay, you can go, [01:49:20.440 --> 01:49:26.440] but you have to make arrangements giving them 24 or 48 hours or anything like that. [01:49:26.440 --> 01:49:28.440] That's the problem that I saw with it. [01:49:28.440 --> 01:49:33.440] Yeah, I don't know if that's in the code, but that would seem appropriate. [01:49:33.440 --> 01:49:40.440] But they can't require that you come sooner than 10 days. [01:49:40.440 --> 01:49:48.440] The statute has to specifically give you 10 days, and it doesn't. [01:49:48.440 --> 01:49:51.440] Well, the statute does, but the ticket doesn't. [01:49:51.440 --> 01:49:55.440] So citation doesn't. [01:49:55.440 --> 01:50:00.440] But the citation that they, like what they gave me, when they gave me one, [01:50:00.440 --> 01:50:04.440] it did give the date that was, you know, past the 10 days. [01:50:04.440 --> 01:50:07.440] Yes, but it says on or before. [01:50:07.440 --> 01:50:13.440] Yes, and that's a question I had because according to 543.006, [01:50:13.440 --> 01:50:17.440] it says not unless you demand an earlier hearing. [01:50:17.440 --> 01:50:21.440] You make a really good point. [01:50:21.440 --> 01:50:28.440] If they specify a date that's further than 10 days out, [01:50:28.440 --> 01:50:34.440] then they're not requiring that you come, [01:50:34.440 --> 01:50:39.440] that you appear before the court before the time period. [01:50:39.440 --> 01:50:45.440] They're giving you that option. [01:50:45.440 --> 01:50:50.440] So you're saying like when they put the on or before, they're giving you that option? [01:50:50.440 --> 01:50:53.440] That's the way, yeah. [01:50:53.440 --> 01:50:55.440] Yes, I think so. [01:50:55.440 --> 01:50:59.440] Yeah, but the problem is from the times that I've gone in, [01:50:59.440 --> 01:51:04.440] even when you appear on the date shown on the ticket, the judge isn't there. [01:51:04.440 --> 01:51:11.440] Yeah, but what we're talking about here is what the statute requires. [01:51:11.440 --> 01:51:15.440] We know that they don't intend for you to go before a magistrate at all. [01:51:15.440 --> 01:51:17.440] They want the deal. [01:51:17.440 --> 01:51:24.440] But you make a good point, Dominic, and it deflates my argument to some degree. [01:51:24.440 --> 01:51:28.440] I was explaining it and I caught myself when I said that. [01:51:28.440 --> 01:51:32.440] I'm like, oh, wait a minute, let me call Randy, let me call Eddie. [01:51:32.440 --> 01:51:35.440] It's a good catch. [01:51:35.440 --> 01:51:40.440] Now that you caught that, I'm never going to tell that to the court. [01:51:40.440 --> 01:51:44.440] I'll let them figure it out. [01:51:44.440 --> 01:51:47.440] I haven't found one smart enough yet. [01:51:47.440 --> 01:51:54.440] We can certainly make the argument, but you sure blew a hole in my argument. [01:51:54.440 --> 01:51:59.440] Well, the thing is is they don't always make it that 10-day limit. [01:51:59.440 --> 01:52:05.440] I've had them actually write it where I had to appear in court the very next day. [01:52:05.440 --> 01:52:09.440] Now, that would be great. [01:52:09.440 --> 01:52:15.440] So don't let it get you thinking that they always do it correctly because they do not. [01:52:15.440 --> 01:52:17.440] Oh, no, no, no, no. [01:52:17.440 --> 01:52:18.440] I know they don't. [01:52:18.440 --> 01:52:26.440] I just like to make sure all the ducks are in a row because I've seen a lot of good patriots get railroaded. [01:52:26.440 --> 01:52:28.440] So you know what I mean? [01:52:28.440 --> 01:52:31.440] I just want to make sure I'm understanding it correctly. [01:52:31.440 --> 01:52:37.440] Yeah, we want to have our arguments good and solid, no holes in them. [01:52:37.440 --> 01:52:40.440] You just blew a big hole through one of my arguments. [01:52:40.440 --> 01:52:42.440] I'm sorry, but I hope it was to the benefit. [01:52:42.440 --> 01:52:43.440] Chump. [01:52:43.440 --> 01:52:47.440] He's got a lot of golf out thinking, Heath. [01:52:47.440 --> 01:52:48.440] That's cute. [01:52:48.440 --> 01:52:49.440] That's cute. [01:52:49.440 --> 01:52:51.440] Actually, we love it. [01:52:51.440 --> 01:52:54.440] We love it when the listeners can do this. [01:52:54.440 --> 01:52:57.440] Challenge us, you know? [01:52:57.440 --> 01:52:58.440] Take it to the next level. [01:52:58.440 --> 01:52:59.440] We love it. [01:52:59.440 --> 01:53:02.440] I'm going to have to think about that. [01:53:02.440 --> 01:53:04.440] Work out a way to handle it. [01:53:04.440 --> 01:53:06.440] Thank you, Dominic. [01:53:06.440 --> 01:53:07.440] No problem. [01:53:07.440 --> 01:53:08.440] The other question I have... [01:53:08.440 --> 01:53:12.440] Yeah, have you got anything else you want to blow away for me today? [01:53:12.440 --> 01:53:14.440] You're working on that too, Randy. [01:53:14.440 --> 01:53:15.440] Go ahead, Dominic. [01:53:15.440 --> 01:53:20.440] The other question I had was about the credit card issue with my brother-in-law. [01:53:20.440 --> 01:53:26.440] Once we send in a motion to dismiss for a lack of subject matter jurisdiction, [01:53:26.440 --> 01:53:29.440] the other side became very silent. [01:53:29.440 --> 01:53:35.440] How much time do they have before we can put in a motion to dismiss because they're not moving forward? [01:53:35.440 --> 01:53:36.440] Okay. [01:53:36.440 --> 01:53:39.440] They filed a petition and you answered in time. [01:53:39.440 --> 01:53:40.440] Yes, sir. [01:53:40.440 --> 01:53:41.440] Okay. [01:53:41.440 --> 01:53:46.440] They don't have a duty to respond to your answer. [01:53:46.440 --> 01:53:57.440] Now you need to go for discovery, prepare and file discovery so they can essentially sit silent for six months. [01:53:57.440 --> 01:53:58.440] Okay. [01:53:58.440 --> 01:54:01.440] Because when my wife went through this and we went to court, the judge says, [01:54:01.440 --> 01:54:06.440] all of a sudden they're not going to come here, I'm just going to dismiss it because they're not showing up. [01:54:06.440 --> 01:54:08.440] They're taking too long. [01:54:08.440 --> 01:54:09.440] Okay. [01:54:09.440 --> 01:54:10.440] And guys, listen, just one other thing. [01:54:10.440 --> 01:54:14.440] We have less than five minutes left, actually four minutes, and we've got one other caller. [01:54:14.440 --> 01:54:17.440] I'll just call her late at a time. [01:54:17.440 --> 01:54:18.440] Okay. [01:54:18.440 --> 01:54:20.440] You can stay on the line, Dominic. [01:54:20.440 --> 01:54:23.440] I just wanted to bring in this other caller to talk about this traffic issue. [01:54:23.440 --> 01:54:25.440] So just stay there. [01:54:25.440 --> 01:54:26.440] Okay. [01:54:26.440 --> 01:54:27.440] We've got Deloitte from Idaho. [01:54:27.440 --> 01:54:29.440] Deloitte, thanks for calling in. [01:54:29.440 --> 01:54:34.440] You had a comment for Eddie regarding the Civil Rules of Procedure or something? [01:54:34.440 --> 01:54:37.440] Yes, I had a comment for all three of you actually. [01:54:37.440 --> 01:54:38.440] Okay. [01:54:38.440 --> 01:54:41.440] This is addressing John's phone call. [01:54:41.440 --> 01:54:49.440] He was trying to get the judge to claim what jurisdiction and what venue he was in. [01:54:49.440 --> 01:54:56.440] And in Federal Rules of Procedure, Rule 17, it's called ratification of commencement. [01:54:56.440 --> 01:55:00.440] I believe those are pretty magical words when they're used in court. [01:55:00.440 --> 01:55:05.440] Well, it really just goes to standing, ratification of commencement. [01:55:05.440 --> 01:55:09.440] You're asking the petitioner to show standing. [01:55:09.440 --> 01:55:10.440] Right. [01:55:10.440 --> 01:55:11.440] Uh-huh. [01:55:11.440 --> 01:55:18.440] And when they can't do that, then that procedure cannot move forward from that point. [01:55:18.440 --> 01:55:22.440] You have just locked them down. [01:55:22.440 --> 01:55:29.440] Yes, and it's been my position that it's not my place as defendant to determine whether [01:55:29.440 --> 01:55:34.440] or not the petitioner has standing. [01:55:34.440 --> 01:55:40.440] That it is the judge's place to determine that the petitioner has standing to invoke [01:55:40.440 --> 01:55:45.440] the subject matter jurisdiction of the court before the judge tries to exercise authority [01:55:45.440 --> 01:55:52.440] because if he doesn't have it, then the judge is an imposter. [01:55:52.440 --> 01:55:56.440] And then you've got your evidence to go after the judge if he goes past it. [01:55:56.440 --> 01:56:01.440] That's exactly what we did here in Travis County, cross-complaint against the judge [01:56:01.440 --> 01:56:04.440] for impersonating a public official. [01:56:04.440 --> 01:56:08.440] That was a hoot. [01:56:08.440 --> 01:56:12.440] Well, every time we can do that, it's just another feather in our cap. [01:56:12.440 --> 01:56:19.440] And I think the magic words are the ratification of commencement and standing on Rule 17 [01:56:19.440 --> 01:56:21.440] because they can't move forward. [01:56:21.440 --> 01:56:29.440] Well, Rule 17 won't apply in the state if there is a state statute that's similar, [01:56:29.440 --> 01:56:35.440] and all states require that the petitioner show standing. [01:56:35.440 --> 01:56:38.440] So we can't claim Rule 17 in the state. [01:56:38.440 --> 01:56:42.440] We need to find the corresponding state statute. [01:56:42.440 --> 01:56:47.440] Well, you can stand on the federal because they are all some corporations of the federal system. [01:56:47.440 --> 01:56:58.440] No, but you can only stand on the federal if there's not a state rule addressing the issue. [01:56:58.440 --> 01:57:04.440] If the legislature of your state hasn't addressed this issue, if it has, [01:57:04.440 --> 01:57:08.440] you have to go by what the legislature of your state has done. [01:57:08.440 --> 01:57:13.440] But if the state hasn't addressed it, what the courts have said is we trust the legislature [01:57:13.440 --> 01:57:16.440] of other states and of the United States. [01:57:16.440 --> 01:57:23.440] So if our legislature hasn't addressed an issue and another legislature has, [01:57:23.440 --> 01:57:28.440] we'll trust that legislature, but only if we haven't addressed it. [01:57:28.440 --> 01:57:34.440] So you always have to use the local law first. [01:57:34.440 --> 01:57:37.440] Does that make sense? [01:57:37.440 --> 01:57:40.440] It makes sense to me, too. [01:57:40.440 --> 01:57:44.440] But every code is going to have this. [01:57:44.440 --> 01:57:45.440] I mean, this is basic. [01:57:45.440 --> 01:57:49.440] This is absolutely primary. [01:57:49.440 --> 01:57:55.440] You have to have standing to invoke the subject matter jurisdiction of the court before you come in. [01:57:55.440 --> 01:57:57.440] Everyone's going to handle this. [01:57:57.440 --> 01:57:59.440] It's just a matter of looking it up. [01:57:59.440 --> 01:58:09.440] If you do a search for Standing Idaho, civil standing Idaho, you'll get all the stuff you need on it. [01:58:09.440 --> 01:58:15.440] When I can't find something in Lexus, I go to Google and always, or Google or Icequick now, [01:58:15.440 --> 01:58:19.440] I go to the Internet and always find it. [01:58:19.440 --> 01:58:21.440] That won't be hard. [01:58:21.440 --> 01:58:23.440] I think we're running out of time. [01:58:23.440 --> 01:58:25.440] Yes, we're out of time. [01:58:25.440 --> 01:58:30.440] Lloyd, Dominic, thanks for staying on the line with us. [01:58:30.440 --> 01:58:31.440] All right. [01:58:31.440 --> 01:58:35.440] We'll be back on Thursday night. [01:58:35.440 --> 01:58:39.440] Tomorrow, Tom Kiley, INA will report and the Agenda 21 boys are back. [01:58:39.440 --> 01:58:41.440] I know people have been wondering what's been going on. [01:58:41.440 --> 01:58:42.440] They've been running archives. [01:58:42.440 --> 01:58:46.440] They've been slammed with work and family issues, but they are back. [01:58:46.440 --> 01:58:47.440] Don't worry. [01:58:47.440 --> 01:58:48.440] They're not going anywhere. [01:58:48.440 --> 01:58:50.440] They will be back live tomorrow night.

[01:58:59.440 --> 01:59:04.440] This is Deborah Stevens from Lula Long Radio with an update on the Austin micro FMs. [01:59:04.440 --> 01:59:08.440] The outpouring of support for 90.1 has been tremendous. [01:59:08.440 --> 01:59:14.440] In only two days, Brave New Books has collected over 100 letters and enough donations to cover court costs so far. [01:59:14.440 --> 01:59:22.440] A lawsuit and petition for restraining order has been filed to stop the FCC from taking any further action until this is sorted out in court. [01:59:22.440 --> 01:59:25.440] 90.1 will stay on the air for the long haul. [01:59:25.440 --> 01:59:31.440] Even if the court orders the operators to shut down, we are prepared to appeal all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. [01:59:31.440 --> 01:59:41.440] Now is the time to kick our serving the public interest letter campaign into high gear to go viral so we can build as strong a case as possible. [01:59:41.440 --> 01:59:47.440] We need your donations to cover future court costs, travel expenses, and possible fines as well. [01:59:47.440 --> 01:59:55.440] Please go to lulalongradio.com to download the letter and donate or stop by Brave New Books at 1904 Guadalupe Sweet Beach. [01:59:55.440 --> 02:00:11.440] Thank you, Austin, and please continue your support.
