[00:00.000 --> 00:04.520] This news brief brought to you by the International News Net.
[00:04.520 --> 00:09.480] Fierce fighting erupted Monday in Cote d'Ivoire's western town of Ducoup
[00:09.480 --> 00:13.640] between forces loyal to presidential pretender Laurent Bagbo
[00:13.640 --> 00:16.560] and elected president Alessane Ouattara.
[00:16.560 --> 00:19.280] Rebels who took control of the north of the country
[00:19.280 --> 00:24.480] during the 2002-2003 civil war and are now backing Ouattara
[00:24.480 --> 00:26.760] said Monday they have taken Ducoup
[00:26.760 --> 00:30.120] which had been under Bagbo's control for nearly a decade.
[00:30.120 --> 00:34.080] Reuters reported Monday gun battles in the capital Abidjan.
[00:34.080 --> 00:38.200] Egypt's ousted dictator, Hazni Mubarak,
[00:38.200 --> 00:41.320] has been put under house arrest along with his family.
[00:41.320 --> 00:45.800] Egypt's supreme council of the armed forces took power February 11th
[00:45.800 --> 00:48.200] after Mubarak was pushed from office.
[00:48.200 --> 00:51.800] Egypt is due to hold parliamentary elections in September.
[00:51.800 --> 00:55.720] Emergency rule giving police near unlimited powers
[00:55.720 --> 00:57.120] has yet to be lifted.
[00:58.800 --> 01:01.760] In Afghanistan, 24 people were killed Sunday
[01:01.760 --> 01:04.720] and 50 others injured, many of them critically,
[01:04.720 --> 01:08.280] after a massive bomb exploded at a construction company.
[01:08.280 --> 01:10.520] The Taliban claimed responsibility.
[01:10.520 --> 01:14.040] Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said
[01:14.040 --> 01:18.000] militants had also attacked a joint base of Afghan and NATO forces
[01:18.000 --> 01:19.840] killing more than 50 soldiers.
[01:19.840 --> 01:23.120] The bomb attack came a day after more than 10 Taliban militants
[01:23.120 --> 01:25.840] were killed in a US-led airstrike.
[01:25.840 --> 01:29.640] Half a million demonstrators marched in London Saturday
[01:29.640 --> 01:32.200] against massive government spending cuts.
[01:32.200 --> 01:37.760] Britons gathered to express their outrage over $130 billion in cutbacks
[01:37.760 --> 01:41.880] the government claims are necessary to tame a runaway budget deficit.
[01:41.880 --> 01:45.080] The retrenchment is expected to result in a radical shake-up
[01:45.080 --> 01:49.000] of bedrock social services such as welfare and healthcare
[01:49.000 --> 01:53.280] and the elimination of nearly half a million public sector jobs.
[01:53.280 --> 01:56.880] Critics of the austerity programme point out the budget shortfall
[01:56.880 --> 02:00.440] could easily be closed by slightly increasing taxes
[02:00.440 --> 02:03.480] on Britain's wealthiest corporations and individuals.
[02:03.480 --> 02:07.520] Effects of the austerity measures will begin to be felt next month.
[02:07.520 --> 02:10.720] When libraries start closing, youth programmes disappear,
[02:10.720 --> 02:14.720] social workers get laid off and fewer buses ply the streets.
[02:14.720 --> 02:19.200] Rolling Stone magazine says the dozen soldiers portrayed as members
[02:19.200 --> 02:22.880] of a secret kill team in Afghanistan were in fact operating
[02:22.880 --> 02:25.400] in plain view of the rest of the company.
[02:25.400 --> 02:28.720] Far from being clandestine, as the Pentagon has implied,
[02:28.720 --> 02:32.000] the murders of civilians were common knowledge among the unit.
[02:32.000 --> 02:36.520] Whistleblower Private Justin Stoner told Army Criminal Investigation Command
[02:36.520 --> 02:39.960] the platoon have had a lot of practice staging killings
[02:39.960 --> 02:41.600] and getting away with it.
[02:41.600 --> 02:45.400] Neither 3rd platoon's commander, Captain Matthew Quiggle,
[02:45.400 --> 02:48.720] nor 1st Lieutenant Roman Ligze, have been held accountable
[02:48.720 --> 02:51.880] for their unit's actions, despite their repeated failure
[02:51.880 --> 02:54.240] to report numerous suspicious killings.
[02:54.240 --> 02:56.960] In fact, both men have recently been promoted.
[02:56.960 --> 03:02.960] More details on these stories visit INNworldreport.net.
[03:07.160 --> 03:10.560] You are listening to the Rule of Law Radio Network
[03:10.560 --> 03:17.560] at ruleoflawradio.com, live free speech talk radio at its best.
[03:40.560 --> 03:47.560] All right, folks, it is Monday night, we're here on Rule of Law Radio.
[04:01.000 --> 04:06.000] It is March 3rd, or I'm sorry, it is March 28th, 2011.
[04:06.000 --> 04:09.000] This is Eddie Craig, Deborah Stevens, Randy Kelton,
[04:09.000 --> 04:11.000] and this is the Rule of Law Radio.
[04:11.000 --> 04:14.000] Tonight, we're not going to have a lot of material to go over
[04:14.000 --> 04:16.000] before we start taking your calls.
[04:16.000 --> 04:18.000] We do, however, have several announcements
[04:18.000 --> 04:22.000] we need to get opened up with so that we can get the information to you,
[04:22.000 --> 04:24.000] and then we'll start to take your calls.
[04:24.000 --> 04:29.000] The call in number is 512-646-1984.
[04:29.000 --> 04:32.000] If you've got any questions or anything regarding traffic
[04:32.000 --> 04:35.000] or things of that nature, do process in a traffic case
[04:35.000 --> 04:37.000] or some other misdemeanor case,
[04:37.000 --> 04:41.000] call 512-646-1984.
[04:41.000 --> 04:43.000] Okay, Deborah, you said that there were a couple of announcements
[04:43.000 --> 04:45.000] you had to make before we got rolling?
[04:45.000 --> 04:47.000] Yeah, I have a couple of announcements.
[04:47.000 --> 04:50.000] Erica Rogers and Stephen Rogers from Centrition,
[04:50.000 --> 04:54.000] they have informed me that there are a few
[04:54.000 --> 04:58.000] Rule of Law Radio radiation specials left,
[04:58.000 --> 05:02.000] and we had Stephen on the show, one of our sponsors,
[05:02.000 --> 05:04.000] the creator, Centrition, on Thursday night.
[05:04.000 --> 05:07.000] We spent an hour with him discussing the fact
[05:07.000 --> 05:10.000] that we are basically all under assault
[05:10.000 --> 05:13.000] and attack right now of low levels of radiation
[05:13.000 --> 05:15.000] and becoming higher levels of radiation
[05:15.000 --> 05:17.000] for the last several decades,
[05:17.000 --> 05:20.000] and so folks, you may want to go back and listen to that interview
[05:20.000 --> 05:24.000] because he gave us some very valuable advice
[05:24.000 --> 05:27.000] on how we can continue to chelate,
[05:27.000 --> 05:32.000] how we should all be on a continual chelation therapy situation
[05:32.000 --> 05:34.000] and removing heavy metals from our bodies
[05:34.000 --> 05:38.000] and protecting ourselves against the harmful effects of radiation,
[05:38.000 --> 05:43.000] and he offered a Rule of Law radiation special, 90 bucks.
[05:43.000 --> 05:46.000] You get two months of Centrition.
[05:46.000 --> 05:48.000] That's 10% off the normal price,
[05:48.000 --> 05:53.000] and plus you get several videos, DVDs, and CDs.
[05:53.000 --> 05:57.000] One is the Holistic Nutrition Seminar audio.
[05:57.000 --> 05:58.000] It says here,
[05:58.000 --> 06:02.000] food should be viewed as fuel more so than entertainment.
[06:02.000 --> 06:05.000] The Holistic Nutrition Seminar covers everything about planning meals,
[06:05.000 --> 06:08.000] balancing nutrients, and making better choices.
[06:08.000 --> 06:11.000] Instructions to download and listen to the audio are emailed,
[06:11.000 --> 06:15.000] and then we've got the Shin Kinetics video.
[06:15.000 --> 06:19.000] Shin Kinetics is a great all-in-one mindful exercise program
[06:19.000 --> 06:23.000] that integrates yoga, Pilates, core, strength training, and dance.
[06:23.000 --> 06:24.000] After the order is complete,
[06:24.000 --> 06:27.000] a link is emailed with directions on how to watch and download the video.
[06:27.000 --> 06:33.000] Then we've got the Shinrobics audio, or Shinrobics, I guess.
[06:33.000 --> 06:36.000] Downloadable audio covers how to regulate the breathing process
[06:36.000 --> 06:39.000] and naturally increase our oxygen intake.
[06:39.000 --> 06:41.000] The links to download the information will be delivered once ordered.
[06:41.000 --> 06:47.000] Okay, so folks, you get their audio seminars and their video seminars for free
[06:47.000 --> 06:53.000] with the Rule of Law radiation special, 90 bucks, two months of Centrition.
[06:53.000 --> 06:58.000] That's 10% off, plus the free audio and video CDs and DVDs.
[06:58.000 --> 07:03.000] And so if you click on the link on the Rule of Law radio website,
[07:03.000 --> 07:06.000] you just scroll down a little bit, you'll see a banner that says,
[07:06.000 --> 07:10.000] you know, with a glass in her hand, and it's a green banner,
[07:10.000 --> 07:13.000] and it says, more energy, less stress.
[07:13.000 --> 07:19.000] Click on that link, and it will go to the order page for the Rule of Law radiation special.
[07:19.000 --> 07:22.000] He was only doing 25, and he said that they sold most of them,
[07:22.000 --> 07:24.000] but there are a few left.
[07:24.000 --> 07:26.000] So I just want to let you folks know that.
[07:26.000 --> 07:30.000] So if you haven't got your Rule of Law radiation special yet from Centrition,
[07:30.000 --> 07:32.000] please do so.
[07:32.000 --> 07:34.000] Get them while the getting is good.
[07:34.000 --> 07:39.000] And another announcement that I have to make concerning a very special guest
[07:39.000 --> 07:43.000] we're going to have on Friday, back by popular demand.
[07:43.000 --> 07:46.000] Harmon Taylor is returning.
[07:46.000 --> 07:48.000] He will be our guest on Friday,
[07:48.000 --> 07:54.000] and he's going to continue the debunking of the Bernard Von Nodhouse case
[07:54.000 --> 07:59.000] that Dr. Bill Veith and I and Randy and Eddie and I did on Friday.
[07:59.000 --> 08:02.000] One thing I wanted to mention that I did not have a chance,
[08:02.000 --> 08:06.000] that I was not able to mention on Friday because I forgot,
[08:06.000 --> 08:10.000] Bill Veith called this from the beginning, by the way, folks.
[08:10.000 --> 08:15.000] He predicted this from the get-go before Bernard was ever even charged.
[08:15.000 --> 08:18.000] He said, Bernard's going to get in trouble on this because he used the word dollar,
[08:18.000 --> 08:20.000] and that's exactly what happened.
[08:20.000 --> 08:22.000] Harmon Taylor says the same thing.
[08:22.000 --> 08:26.000] Harmon is going to break down the case from a slightly different perspective.
[08:26.000 --> 08:28.000] We broke it down from a statutory perspective.
[08:28.000 --> 08:33.000] Now Harmon is going to break it down from a commercial perspective
[08:33.000 --> 08:38.000] and something called choice of law, which some of you out there may know what it means.
[08:38.000 --> 08:40.000] I'm not going to get into it now.
[08:40.000 --> 08:41.000] It's a very complicated topic.
[08:41.000 --> 08:46.000] Harmon is going to get into what choice of law means and why it is so important
[08:46.000 --> 08:49.000] concerning the Bernard case and discuss the commercial-related issues
[08:49.000 --> 08:52.000] and basically has the same conclusion that we do.
[08:52.000 --> 08:54.000] It's because he used the word dollar,
[08:54.000 --> 08:58.000] and so Harmon is going to break down the case from his perspective on Friday.
[08:58.000 --> 09:02.000] One other thing I wanted to mention about this Bernard case,
[09:02.000 --> 09:04.000] the reason that we're getting into this, people,
[09:04.000 --> 09:10.000] is not because we are trying to launch a personal attack on Bernard Von Nodhouse.
[09:10.000 --> 09:11.000] I know the man.
[09:11.000 --> 09:12.000] I'm sure he meant well.
[09:12.000 --> 09:15.000] I mean, I don't know him personally, but I'm sure he meant well.
[09:15.000 --> 09:19.000] By reading his materials, I'm sure he totally meant well.
[09:19.000 --> 09:21.000] So this is not a personal attack.
[09:21.000 --> 09:26.000] I know there's a lot of people who are getting very upset about people
[09:26.000 --> 09:29.000] basically just trying to have an honest discussion about the matter.
[09:29.000 --> 09:32.000] I know he was a patriot and is a patriot and all that.
[09:32.000 --> 09:35.000] We're not trying to launch a personal attack on Bernard.
[09:35.000 --> 09:40.000] We're trying to discuss what's going on from a legitimate perspective,
[09:40.000 --> 09:44.000] because what's been happening is that the mainstream media
[09:44.000 --> 09:50.000] and even a lot of alternative media have cited this very inflammatory,
[09:50.000 --> 09:55.000] just extremely highly emotionally charged,
[09:55.000 --> 10:02.000] explosive quote by the prosecutor that was made after the verdict was issued
[10:02.000 --> 10:08.000] by the jury saying, accusing Bernard of being a domestic terrorist
[10:08.000 --> 10:13.000] and people who deal with alternative systems of barter and silver and this and that
[10:13.000 --> 10:16.000] are domestic terrorists and all this stuff.
[10:16.000 --> 10:18.000] I mean, I'll read the quote on Friday.
[10:18.000 --> 10:21.000] I'm not going to go into it now, but at any rate, the point is,
[10:21.000 --> 10:25.000] this is a propaganda movement by the government.
[10:25.000 --> 10:32.000] It's a propaganda push to try to enslave and incite the patriot community
[10:32.000 --> 10:38.000] into doing something stupid because Bernard got convicted.
[10:38.000 --> 10:43.000] I've had people tell me that it's over.
[10:43.000 --> 10:46.000] The government's totally corrupt because of what happened to Bernard.
[10:46.000 --> 10:48.000] There's nothing that can be done anymore.
[10:48.000 --> 10:49.000] It's over.
[10:49.000 --> 10:51.000] It's time to lock and load.
[10:51.000 --> 10:57.000] I've had people, reasonable people, actually tell me this, and I'm like, no.
[10:57.000 --> 11:00.000] That's exactly what the government wants us to do right now.
[11:00.000 --> 11:05.000] So the reason we're discussing this Bernard case is because we're trying to show people
[11:05.000 --> 11:11.000] legitimately, according to law, why this happened so that people will not be out there
[11:11.000 --> 11:17.000] thinking it's over, there's no hope, there's no reason for this, it's an attack on silver,
[11:17.000 --> 11:22.000] Bernard went down for being a domestic terrorist, and just all this, it's just nonsense, people.
[11:22.000 --> 11:23.000] It's just nonsense.
[11:23.000 --> 11:26.000] There are legitimate legal reasons why this happened.
[11:26.000 --> 11:28.000] I went over a lot of it on Friday.
[11:28.000 --> 11:31.000] We're going to go over some more of it on this coming Friday.
[11:31.000 --> 11:38.000] But I just wanted to explain that the reason I'm doing this is because I want people to see
[11:38.000 --> 11:45.000] the legal and lawful reasons why this happened and that it's not a situation of hopelessness
[11:45.000 --> 11:49.000] and the government is so completely out of control, they just do whatever they want,
[11:49.000 --> 11:54.000] and because they took down Bernard, then anything can happen, and it's just time to give up.
[11:54.000 --> 11:56.000] Okay, that's not what's going on.
[11:56.000 --> 12:04.000] There's a very targeted effort by the government using highly charged emotional,
[12:04.000 --> 12:09.000] explosive language that is totally off the mark and has nothing to do with the case
[12:09.000 --> 12:14.000] because they're trying to get people inflamed over this, and so I'm trying to calm people down.
[12:14.000 --> 12:15.000] So that's what's going on.
[12:15.000 --> 12:18.000] Anyway, those are the announcements that I have for now.
[12:18.000 --> 12:19.000] There are a few callers on the board.
[12:19.000 --> 12:21.000] Callers, we'll get to you in just a moment.
[12:21.000 --> 12:23.000] Eddie's going to go over some material first.
[12:23.000 --> 12:26.000] Okay, thanks, Eddie.
[12:26.000 --> 12:27.000] All right, no problem.
[12:27.000 --> 12:33.000] Now, a couple of announcements that I've got, and Gene, we do see there on the board,
[12:33.000 --> 12:37.000] along with another caller that I don't have a name for yet,
[12:37.000 --> 12:39.000] but we'll get to you folks here in just a second.
[12:39.000 --> 12:42.000] Let me get these couple of announcements out of the way.
[12:42.000 --> 12:46.000] Okay, you folks remember that this Wednesday past,
[12:46.000 --> 12:51.000] I had a meeting with State Representative James White in his office down at the Capitol.
[12:51.000 --> 13:00.000] His number for his office is 512-463-0490.
[13:00.000 --> 13:04.000] For those of you out there, please call into his office.
[13:04.000 --> 13:12.000] Please demand that he see to it that the judicial committee hearing that he talked to me about
[13:12.000 --> 13:17.000] will be set and scheduled as soon as possible.
[13:17.000 --> 13:23.000] These issues need to be brought up before these people leave session for the next two years.
[13:23.000 --> 13:25.000] So please call him.
[13:25.000 --> 13:33.000] Please let him know that we want this to happen as a people because there are serious issues at stake here.
[13:33.000 --> 13:36.000] I'm not just somebody that came to visit to grind his own axe.
[13:36.000 --> 13:42.000] This is an axe that belongs to everybody, and we need him to know it.
[13:42.000 --> 13:50.000] So please call 512-463-0490, Representative James White,
[13:50.000 --> 13:56.000] and let them know that you want this hearing with the judicial committee to take place.
[13:56.000 --> 14:02.000] Also, for those of you in the Austin area or are going to be in the Austin area on the following dates,
[14:02.000 --> 14:12.000] we are going to have an open intro to the public at Brave New Books on April the 1st and on May the 6th,
[14:12.000 --> 14:17.000] both starting at 7 p.m. and running until 9 p.m.
[14:17.000 --> 14:22.000] Basically, I'm just going to introduce you to some of the material and things that we talk about,
[14:22.000 --> 14:28.000] what we're trying to learn, what we're trying to teach, what we're trying to do with both.
[14:28.000 --> 14:34.000] So if you want to know what we're doing at Brave New Books and why we're doing it, please come down.

[14:41.000 --> 14:46.000] Those are Friday nights from 7 to 9.
[14:46.000 --> 14:50.000] Okay, that being said, I think we've got the announcements out of the way.
[14:50.000 --> 14:55.000] Deborah, you haven't thought of anything else, have you?
[14:55.000 --> 14:57.000] I'll take that as a no.
[14:57.000 --> 14:58.000] I'm sorry.
[14:58.000 --> 15:00.000] Were you asking me something, Eddie?
[15:00.000 --> 15:01.000] I was trying to screen call.
[15:01.000 --> 15:06.000] I was asking you if there was anything else you thought of while I was giving out my information before I started.
[15:06.000 --> 15:07.000] No, that's all.
[15:07.000 --> 15:08.000] Go ahead.
[15:08.000 --> 15:09.000] Go to Sandra first.
[15:09.000 --> 15:10.000] All right.
[15:10.000 --> 15:11.000] Okay, great.
[15:11.000 --> 15:14.000] Okay, we have Sandra, Jean, and Vince on the line.
[15:14.000 --> 15:17.000] Sandra, what can we do for you?
[15:17.000 --> 15:18.000] Hi there.
[15:18.000 --> 15:20.000] About four years ago, I filed a motion to modify.
[15:20.000 --> 15:23.000] I was trying to regain primary custody of my four minor children,
[15:23.000 --> 15:27.000] and we had a final hearing in November of 2009, and I failed.
[15:27.000 --> 15:32.000] My ex became primary custody, and I was ordered to pay child support,
[15:32.000 --> 15:36.000] and also half of his family's health insurance premium,
[15:36.000 --> 15:39.000] and half of all the medical bills, which tend to be about $500 per month.
[15:39.000 --> 15:40.000] That's my share.
[15:40.000 --> 15:42.000] And at the time, I was on unemployment.
[15:42.000 --> 15:46.000] I was going to school full-time and had a little side business that brought in about $500 a month.
[15:46.000 --> 15:50.000] My ex-husband was making somewhere between $200,000 and $300,000 a year,
[15:50.000 --> 15:53.000] but that was never brought up because I had an awful attorney
[15:53.000 --> 15:56.000] who didn't do anything for me in the courtroom.
[15:56.000 --> 16:00.000] So then I filed for a retrial, oh, and also at that hearing.
[16:00.000 --> 16:03.000] Am I allowed to mention the judge's name or not?
[16:03.000 --> 16:04.000] Sure.
[16:04.000 --> 16:06.000] Okay, it was Judge Sines.
[16:06.000 --> 16:08.000] And also my ex's attorney...
[16:08.000 --> 16:09.000] Judge Sines.
[16:09.000 --> 16:11.000] You're in Nacogdoches County.
[16:11.000 --> 16:13.000] No, I'm in Travis.
[16:13.000 --> 16:14.000] It was Leonard Sines.
[16:14.000 --> 16:15.000] You're in Travis.
[16:15.000 --> 16:16.000] Oh, okay.
[16:16.000 --> 16:17.000] I'm sorry.
[16:17.000 --> 16:18.000] We have a Judge Sines in Nacogdoches as well.
[16:18.000 --> 16:19.000] Oh, I'm sorry.
[16:19.000 --> 16:20.000] Sorry for that.
[16:20.000 --> 16:21.000] It's going to be related.
[16:21.000 --> 16:22.000] Okay.
[16:22.000 --> 16:26.000] And so the attorney accused me of abusing the pauper's oath.
[16:26.000 --> 16:30.000] And so the judge said that I'd have to put a $1,000 cash bond down
[16:30.000 --> 16:32.000] before I could file another pauper's oath,
[16:32.000 --> 16:36.000] which a person who's poor can't afford to put a $1,000 to pop it down.
[16:36.000 --> 16:37.000] Right.
[16:37.000 --> 16:38.000] Okay, hang on, Sandra.
[16:38.000 --> 16:39.000] We're going to break.
[16:39.000 --> 16:41.000] I'll pick you up on the other side, okay?
[16:41.000 --> 16:42.000] So please hang on.
[16:42.000 --> 16:43.000] All right.

[19:12.000 --> 19:32.000] All right, folks.
[19:32.000 --> 19:34.000] We are back, Rule of Law Radio.
[19:34.000 --> 19:36.000] We must be popular tonight.
[19:36.000 --> 19:38.000] Our caller board is stacking up.
[19:38.000 --> 19:40.000] All right, Sandra, please continue.
[19:40.000 --> 19:43.000] Okay, well, basically, what happened was I found her a new trial,
[19:43.000 --> 19:46.000] and I was denied, but the new judge, which was Judge Williamson,
[19:46.000 --> 19:50.000] said that that part about me having $10,000 should be stricken out.
[19:50.000 --> 19:54.000] So she told the opposing counsel to type up the new orders.
[19:54.000 --> 19:56.000] Okay, this was in May of 2010.
[19:56.000 --> 20:00.000] And just now in March of 2011, he finally, because she kept insisting,
[20:00.000 --> 20:02.000] he finally came up with a set of orders.
[20:02.000 --> 20:05.000] She had told him that he should present the orders to her,
[20:05.000 --> 20:07.000] and there would be a hearing where we could discuss it,
[20:07.000 --> 20:09.000] and then she would possibly sign it.
[20:09.000 --> 20:14.000] He went to the courthouse over spring break when there was a different attorney in it,
[20:14.000 --> 20:17.000] I mean, a different judge, and he took me.
[20:17.000 --> 20:22.000] And so this other judge signed them, not knowing that that wasn't what was ordered.
[20:22.000 --> 20:28.000] And so I got a certified copy of the mail already signed with no say from me at all in it.
[20:28.000 --> 20:35.000] So I sent an email to the judge's assistant saying, you know, blah, blah, blah.
[20:35.000 --> 20:36.000] It wasn't done, right?
[20:36.000 --> 20:39.000] So I got a letter from the judge saying that we're going to have a hearing on Wednesday.
[20:39.000 --> 20:46.000] And okay, so I'm trying to get this mess cleared up because I can't afford to pay any child support
[20:46.000 --> 20:50.000] and still have a roof over my head, and it's not going to be good for the best interest of the children,
[20:50.000 --> 20:52.000] for their mom to be homeless, living in a shelter.
[20:52.000 --> 20:58.000] And I don't have a job because I basically stayed home and homeschooled the children
[20:58.000 --> 21:01.000] and raised the children and put him through school, and that's why he's making the big bucks.
[21:01.000 --> 21:04.000] And I'm making nothing.
[21:04.000 --> 21:07.000] I can't even get the job because I have no credentials.
[21:07.000 --> 21:08.000] I'm going to school.
[21:08.000 --> 21:10.000] I'm actually an honors student at ACC.
[21:10.000 --> 21:15.000] But I don't have any money, and I can't pay the child support.
[21:15.000 --> 21:17.000] And so that's one thing I'd like to get clarified.
[21:17.000 --> 21:23.000] But also, back six months ago as of tomorrow, one of my daughters, she ran away,
[21:23.000 --> 21:25.000] and she came to live with me.
[21:25.000 --> 21:27.000] Am I still on the line?
[21:27.000 --> 21:28.000] Yeah, go ahead.
[21:28.000 --> 21:29.000] Okay, sorry.
[21:29.000 --> 21:32.000] And she came to live with me, and it's been six months as of tomorrow.
[21:32.000 --> 21:37.000] And I filed with the attorney general trying to get child support for her,
[21:37.000 --> 21:39.000] but I don't have any money to hire an attorney.
[21:39.000 --> 21:41.000] And I feel like every time I go to court, I get screwed.
[21:41.000 --> 21:51.000] And so when I go to this hearing on Wednesday, I feel like the whole order should be vacated
[21:51.000 --> 21:56.000] because it no longer applies because why should I be paying for three children,
[21:56.000 --> 21:59.000] child support for three children when one of those children now lives with me
[21:59.000 --> 22:01.000] and has for the past six months?
[22:01.000 --> 22:04.000] I'm going to get there, and she's going to say, well, you'll have to file.
[22:04.000 --> 22:08.000] You'll have to wait a year, or you'll have to start all over.
[22:08.000 --> 22:12.000] I feel like an attorney told me that if he was going to represent me,
[22:12.000 --> 22:14.000] which I couldn't do that because I didn't have any money,
[22:14.000 --> 22:19.000] he said that he would ask demand or whatever that the orders be vacated,
[22:19.000 --> 22:22.000] and we start all over.
[22:22.000 --> 22:24.000] And if they were vacated, I don't know what that means about the back child support
[22:24.000 --> 22:26.000] because I haven't been able to pay it.
[22:26.000 --> 22:30.000] And so I got this thing over my head going, I could go to jail for not paying child support
[22:30.000 --> 22:34.000] because I can't afford to pay it, and it's a mess.
[22:34.000 --> 22:36.000] Okay.
[22:36.000 --> 22:39.000] So what exactly is your question on it?
[22:39.000 --> 22:43.000] My question is, do I have a legal right to ask that those orders be vacated
[22:43.000 --> 22:48.000] because he dawdled around so long getting them typed up and presented to the court?
[22:48.000 --> 22:56.000] Not only should you ask that they be vacated, but you should also file a motion for sanctions
[22:56.000 --> 23:03.000] because he attempted to circumvent the judge that was actually presiding over the case,
[23:03.000 --> 23:07.000] knowing full well he was probably not going to get what he wanted
[23:07.000 --> 23:10.000] if he submitted the order that he did.
[23:10.000 --> 23:14.000] For instance, were the things that she told him to strike out of the order still in it
[23:14.000 --> 23:16.000] when he got them signed?
[23:16.000 --> 23:17.000] No, that was struck out.
[23:17.000 --> 23:19.000] But he's dawdling because he knows I have to wait a year
[23:19.000 --> 23:21.000] from when the final orders are signed.
[23:21.000 --> 23:24.000] And he's been doing this every step of the way.
[23:24.000 --> 23:26.000] He dawdles around and he keeps coming up with excuses
[23:26.000 --> 23:28.000] why we can't see it in front of a reasonable judge.
[23:28.000 --> 23:33.000] He won't let the hearing go ahead proceed until we get the judge that he wants,
[23:33.000 --> 23:36.000] which was Leonard Stein.
[23:36.000 --> 23:39.000] I was in front of Don Hancock several times, a reasonable judge,
[23:39.000 --> 23:43.000] but every time he would come up with some tiddly thing that he accused me of doing wrong,
[23:43.000 --> 23:44.000] which I didn't do wrong.
[23:44.000 --> 23:45.000] It was correctly done.
[23:45.000 --> 23:48.000] But he kept doing it until he got the judge he wanted.
[23:48.000 --> 23:53.000] And so you're saying I should file a motion to vacate and a motion?
[23:53.000 --> 23:58.000] A motion for sanctions against the other attorney for abusing the process
[23:58.000 --> 24:01.000] in an effort to control the outcome of the case
[24:01.000 --> 24:06.000] by getting the judge that he wants is what you're getting at.
[24:06.000 --> 24:09.000] So he's manipulating the system to his own ends.
[24:09.000 --> 24:17.000] Now, the other thing is when he said that you were abusing the indigency phase of this,
[24:17.000 --> 24:22.000] what evidence did he produce to refute your indigency?
[24:22.000 --> 24:23.000] Nothing.
[24:23.000 --> 24:24.000] He just said it.
[24:24.000 --> 24:28.000] I'm telling you, this judge is awful.
[24:28.000 --> 24:32.000] Then you also need to file judicial conduct complaints against that judge.
[24:32.000 --> 24:37.000] Any time he tries to put you in front of a judge that has done something
[24:37.000 --> 24:41.000] that is not in accordance with law on the subject,
[24:41.000 --> 24:45.000] you need to file a judicial conduct complaint against the judge
[24:45.000 --> 24:49.000] and a bar grievance against that attorney.
[24:49.000 --> 24:52.000] Well, you know what I have done on bar grievances against attorneys before,
[24:52.000 --> 24:56.000] and I feel like the state of text is very corrupt because one time...
[24:56.000 --> 24:59.000] Well, you're absolutely right, but you need to do it anyway.
[24:59.000 --> 25:03.000] I've done it three times, and one time it was totally obvious
[25:03.000 --> 25:05.000] that the guy should have been disbarred.
[25:05.000 --> 25:07.000] It was Stephen Kopenhaver.
[25:07.000 --> 25:10.000] He was assigned by Suzanne Brooks to represent me and represent my children
[25:10.000 --> 25:14.000] when I first lost, you know, in the first custody case where I lost custody
[25:14.000 --> 25:16.000] because of Stephen Kopenhaver's testimony.
[25:16.000 --> 25:19.000] Stephen, I don't know if you're not from Austin. You may not have heard about this.
[25:19.000 --> 25:22.000] Oh, wait. His testimony. What do you mean, his testimony?
[25:22.000 --> 25:24.000] Well, he was a guardian ad litem.
[25:24.000 --> 25:26.000] I didn't know anything about his past.
[25:26.000 --> 25:30.000] I didn't know that he was out on bail for sexually propositioning,
[25:30.000 --> 25:35.000] for soliciting sex and prostitution of a female client who came to him.
[25:35.000 --> 25:37.000] While he was out, he was arrested.
[25:37.000 --> 25:39.000] But while he was out on bail, Suzanne Brooks signed the papers
[25:39.000 --> 25:42.000] making him the guardian ad litem for my five children.
[25:42.000 --> 25:44.000] I had five minor children at the time,
[25:44.000 --> 25:46.000] and he hit on me every occasion when we were alone,
[25:46.000 --> 25:49.000] and there were no witnesses. He hit on me repeatedly.
[25:49.000 --> 25:58.000] And then when I didn't pick him up on his rotations and what he was getting at,
[25:58.000 --> 26:00.000] I showed up to court at the final hearing,
[26:00.000 --> 26:03.000] and he wrote up a bad report saying that my kids were flunking school,
[26:03.000 --> 26:06.000] which was not true. They were getting As and Bs,
[26:06.000 --> 26:09.000] saying that all sorts of ridiculous things,
[26:09.000 --> 26:13.000] not that I was abusing drugs or doing anything wrong like that,
[26:13.000 --> 26:15.000] but just that I had my house for sale.
[26:15.000 --> 26:17.000] Yeah, my house was for sale because it was in foreclosure
[26:17.000 --> 26:20.000] because I was paying an attorney instead of paying my house payment.
[26:20.000 --> 26:22.000] Just ridiculous things.
[26:22.000 --> 26:27.000] And it was so obvious that it was because I hadn't accepted –
[26:27.000 --> 26:29.000] I don't know what the terminology is.
[26:29.000 --> 26:31.000] I hadn't gone along with his sexual innuendos.
[26:31.000 --> 26:34.000] Sandra, next time something like this happens,
[26:34.000 --> 26:38.000] you need to have a personal recorder on you and record these interchanges
[26:38.000 --> 26:40.000] so that you can have proof of this.
[26:40.000 --> 26:42.000] I know it. I know.
[26:42.000 --> 26:47.000] Yeah, don't ever go into another public anything
[26:47.000 --> 26:50.000] if you're not carrying a recording device on you.
[26:50.000 --> 26:53.000] Don't do it.
[26:53.000 --> 27:00.000] I don't care who you're talking to, have that thing on and recording.
[27:00.000 --> 27:03.000] This is the kind of stuff I keep trying to get people to understand.
[27:03.000 --> 27:09.000] We are no longer in an age of anybody being trustworthy enough in the public sector
[27:09.000 --> 27:13.000] for you to let your life be torn apart on their word alone
[27:13.000 --> 27:19.000] because most of them are more than willing to show you their word is not worth spit.
[27:19.000 --> 27:21.000] Right.
[27:21.000 --> 27:26.000] Now, what you're getting into here, Sandra, is kind of a complicated deal,
[27:26.000 --> 27:32.000] and I don't know how much of this that me or Randy can help you with in this short venue.
[27:32.000 --> 27:35.000] So what I would like for you to do, if you do not mind, please,
[27:35.000 --> 27:40.000] is to get me some details on this, write it up if you haven't already.
[27:40.000 --> 27:44.000] I need this in writing so I know what happened and when.
[27:44.000 --> 27:45.000] Okay.
[27:45.000 --> 27:48.000] Okay, and who the actors were.
[27:48.000 --> 27:52.000] So if you will please send me a contact email offline,
[27:52.000 --> 27:57.000] I will be more than happy to send you a chronology template that will let,
[27:57.000 --> 28:00.000] it's basically a journal entry.
[28:00.000 --> 28:06.000] Every time something in your case happens, you make an entry using this template
[28:06.000 --> 28:10.000] so that you can keep the facts and the players straight.
[28:10.000 --> 28:11.000] Okay?
[28:11.000 --> 28:12.000] Okay.
[28:12.000 --> 28:16.000] That also gives you something to give to someone like me or an attorney
[28:16.000 --> 28:19.000] should you be able to get one sometime down the line.
[28:19.000 --> 28:24.000] They will have something to look at that will bring them up to speed.
[28:24.000 --> 28:30.000] Okay.
[28:30.000 --> 28:31.000] Make sure you do that.
[28:31.000 --> 28:33.000] If you do have it, please send it to me.
[28:33.000 --> 28:34.000] I will.
[28:34.000 --> 28:35.000] Okay.
[28:35.000 --> 28:36.000] Okay.
[28:36.000 --> 28:37.000] Thank you very much.
[28:37.000 --> 28:38.000] You're welcome.
[28:38.000 --> 28:44.000] I will go through that and I will make whatever recommendations I can to you
[28:44.000 --> 28:46.000] as quickly as I can, okay?
[28:46.000 --> 28:47.000] Okay.
[28:47.000 --> 28:48.000] I'll take care of that right away.
[28:48.000 --> 28:49.000] Thank you so very much.
[28:49.000 --> 28:51.000] You're very welcome.
[28:51.000 --> 28:55.000] And also, Sandra, you may want to consider making these trips down to Brave New
[28:55.000 --> 29:01.000] Books because one of the things we do is teach you what to do and say in court
[29:01.000 --> 29:05.000] when you're faced with particular situations.
[29:05.000 --> 29:06.000] Yes.
[29:06.000 --> 29:08.000] Well, I didn't know that that existed until today.
[29:08.000 --> 29:11.000] A friend told me about your radio program and he told me that on weekends
[29:11.000 --> 29:15.000] you have Brave New Books and I, fortunately, there's no weekend between now
[29:15.000 --> 29:19.000] and Wednesday, but I will definitely come this coming weekend.
[29:19.000 --> 29:20.000] Okay.
[29:20.000 --> 29:21.000] Well, we hope to see you there.
[29:21.000 --> 29:22.000] Thank you.
[29:22.000 --> 29:23.000] All right.
[29:23.000 --> 29:24.000] Bye-bye.
[29:24.000 --> 29:25.000] You're welcome.
[29:25.000 --> 29:26.000] Thank you.
[29:26.000 --> 29:27.000] Okay.
[29:27.000 --> 29:30.000] Next up is Vince in California.
[29:30.000 --> 29:32.000] Vince, what can we do for you?
[29:32.000 --> 29:33.000] Hey, good evening.
[29:33.000 --> 29:34.000] Oh, there's the music.
[29:34.000 --> 29:35.000] Oh, man, that was quick.
[29:35.000 --> 29:36.000] All right.
[29:36.000 --> 29:37.000] Okay.
[29:37.000 --> 29:38.000] We're about to go to break.
[29:38.000 --> 29:41.000] So, Vince, if you'll hang on, I'll pick you up on the other side.
[29:41.000 --> 29:45.000] This is Rule of Law Radio, Eddie Craig, Debra Stevens, Randy Kelton.
[29:45.000 --> 29:50.000] The call-in number is 512-646-1984.
[29:50.000 --> 29:54.000] If you have any questions, comments, or just something worth knowing about,
[29:54.000 --> 29:55.000] give us a call.
[29:55.000 --> 29:57.000] We'll see you on the other side of the break.
[29:57.000 --> 30:00.000] We'll be right back.
[30:00.000 --> 30:04.000] The Rule of Law Radio Network is proud to present a due process of law seminar
[30:04.000 --> 30:06.000] hosted by our own Eddie Craig.
[30:06.000 --> 30:09.000] Eddie is a former Nacogdoches County Sheriff's Deputy,
[30:09.000 --> 30:12.000] and for the past 21 years he has studied the due process of law
[30:12.000 --> 30:15.000] and now offers his knowledge to you at a law seminar every Saturday
[30:15.000 --> 30:18.000] from 3 o'clock to 6 o'clock at Brave New Books,
[30:18.000 --> 30:21.000] located at 1904 Guadalupe Street in Austin, Texas.
[30:21.000 --> 30:25.000] Admission is $20, so please make plans to come and sit with Eddie
[30:25.000 --> 30:30.000] and learn for yourself what the true intent of law really is.
[30:30.000 --> 30:34.000] Should U.S. Postal Service mail trucks become government spy mobiles?
[30:34.000 --> 30:37.000] One high-ranking attorney with the Postal Regulatory Commission
[30:37.000 --> 30:39.000] thinks it's a great idea.
[30:39.000 --> 30:43.000] I'm Dr. Catherine Albert, and I'll be back with the Orwellian Postal Proposal
[30:43.000 --> 30:44.000] in just a moment.
[30:44.000 --> 30:48.000] Your search engine is watching you, recording all your searches
[30:48.000 --> 30:51.000] and creating a massive database of your personal information.
[30:51.000 --> 30:52.000] That's creepy.
[30:52.000 --> 30:54.000] But it doesn't have to be that way.
[30:54.000 --> 30:57.000] Startpage.com is the world's most private search engine.
[30:57.000 --> 31:01.000] Startpage doesn't store your IP address, make a record of your searches,
[31:01.000 --> 31:04.000] or use tracking cookies, and they're third-party certified.
[31:04.000 --> 31:08.000] If you don't like Big Brother spying on you, start over with Startpage.
[31:08.000 --> 31:11.000] Great search results and total privacy.
[31:11.000 --> 31:14.000] Startpage.com, the world's most private search engine.
[31:14.000 --> 31:17.000] The U.S. Postal Service is in financial trouble,
[31:17.000 --> 31:20.000] but a senior postal official thinks he has the answer,
[31:20.000 --> 31:22.000] selling postal surveillance services.
[31:22.000 --> 31:26.000] Chief Counsel Michael Ravnitsky believes equipping mail delivery trucks
[31:26.000 --> 31:29.000] with high-tech snooping equipment could be quite profitable.
[31:29.000 --> 31:32.000] He wants onboard cameras to take Google-esque snapshots
[31:32.000 --> 31:35.000] of the 4 million miles of city streets and rural roads
[31:35.000 --> 31:37.000] that postal workers drive every day.
[31:37.000 --> 31:41.000] He also wants invasive sensors to map private communication signals,
[31:41.000 --> 31:43.000] scan the environment for biohazards,
[31:43.000 --> 31:46.000] and monitor citizens' home-based activities.
[31:46.000 --> 31:49.000] The Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution protects us
[31:49.000 --> 31:51.000] from this kind of unreasonable search and seizure.
[31:51.000 --> 31:54.000] Join me in opposing this invasive scheme.
[31:54.000 --> 31:55.000] I'm Dr. Catherine Albrecht.
[31:55.000 --> 31:59.000] More news and information at CatherineAlbrecht.com.
[31:59.000 --> 32:01.000] Thank you.
[32:29.000 --> 32:31.000] All right, folks, we are back.
[32:31.000 --> 32:32.000] This is Rule of Law Radio,
[32:32.000 --> 32:35.000] and right now we are talking to Vince in California.
[32:35.000 --> 32:38.000] We see Eugene, Mitchell, and Jim.
[32:38.000 --> 32:39.000] Y'all hang in there.
[32:39.000 --> 32:41.000] We have several other people drop off the line.
[32:41.000 --> 32:43.000] Folks, please give us a call back.
[32:43.000 --> 32:45.000] We'll get to you just as quick as we can.
[32:45.000 --> 32:47.000] All right, Vince, go ahead, please.
[32:47.000 --> 32:49.000] Hey, it's a good thing that music came up,
[32:49.000 --> 32:51.000] because I thought there was another caller ahead of me,
[32:51.000 --> 32:53.000] and I had a mouthful of food.
[32:53.000 --> 32:54.000] Well, that's all right.
[32:54.000 --> 32:55.000] I won't hold that against you.
[32:55.000 --> 32:57.000] Yeah, do we know how Catherine Albrecht's doing?
[32:57.000 --> 32:59.000] I heard that commercial, and it made me think of her.
[32:59.000 --> 33:03.000] Well, yeah, she's on the air again.
[33:03.000 --> 33:05.000] Oh, I'm going to have to listen to her show.
[33:05.000 --> 33:09.000] Yeah, she had her surgery, and for now she's okay,
[33:09.000 --> 33:13.000] but I believe she said that she has to go through chemo.
[33:13.000 --> 33:18.000] They were concerned for a while that the cancer had gone systemic,
[33:18.000 --> 33:21.000] and they didn't know really if she was going to be
[33:21.000 --> 33:23.000] a terminal patient or not.
[33:23.000 --> 33:25.000] And I believe, don't hold me to this,
[33:25.000 --> 33:28.000] but I believe the tests came back, that they managed to stop it.
[33:28.000 --> 33:30.000] It had already gotten into her lymphatic system,
[33:30.000 --> 33:32.000] but they removed some of her lymph nodes,
[33:32.000 --> 33:34.000] and they believe they have stopped it,
[33:34.000 --> 33:37.000] because otherwise once it gets throughout in your body,
[33:37.000 --> 33:39.000] you're pretty much toast.
[33:39.000 --> 33:41.000] I mean, you get brain cancer, you get bone cancer.
[33:41.000 --> 33:43.000] There's nothing that can be done.
[33:43.000 --> 33:46.000] But I'm pretty sure that that did not happen.
[33:46.000 --> 33:48.000] They caught it in time,
[33:48.000 --> 33:50.000] but I believe she still is going to be going through chemo
[33:50.000 --> 33:51.000] and stuff like that.
[33:51.000 --> 33:53.000] So you may want to listen to her show and call into her.
[33:53.000 --> 33:55.000] I will, and I'm going to pray for her.
[33:55.000 --> 33:56.000] She's such a sweetheart.
[33:56.000 --> 33:58.000] Absolutely.
[33:58.000 --> 34:01.000] Hey, Eddie, have you ever heard or familiar with the Joe Edwards
[34:01.000 --> 34:07.000] case that these guys, they had him on the show a couple years ago?
[34:07.000 --> 34:08.000] I've heard of it.
[34:08.000 --> 34:12.000] I'm not intimate with the details of it.
[34:12.000 --> 34:13.000] Wow, you should go to the,
[34:13.000 --> 34:17.000] I'm sure Deborah can point you right to the archives of that,
[34:17.000 --> 34:20.000] but I've been listening to that over and over ever for the last two years.
[34:20.000 --> 34:24.000] Well, you may want to point him to where the archives are on that,
[34:24.000 --> 34:26.000] because no, I could not.
[34:26.000 --> 34:27.000] Oh, okay.
[34:27.000 --> 34:32.000] I can barely even do bare bones documentation of the archives
[34:32.000 --> 34:33.000] even when we have guests.
[34:33.000 --> 34:36.000] I rely on the listeners to document the archives.
[34:36.000 --> 34:40.000] I've set up the archive page as a WordPress blog,
[34:40.000 --> 34:44.000] and the archive postings are actual blog posts.
[34:44.000 --> 34:46.000] And so I rely on the listeners,
[34:46.000 --> 34:51.000] and I need the listeners to document the archives and describe them
[34:51.000 --> 34:54.000] and post your descriptions as comments.
[34:54.000 --> 34:55.000] Right, right.
[34:55.000 --> 34:57.000] And so no, I have no idea.
[34:57.000 --> 35:02.000] There is an RSS feed of the comments, and I believe that is searchable.
[35:02.000 --> 35:06.000] Now, there is a search function on the WordPress blog page,
[35:06.000 --> 35:11.000] but it only searches the text of the blog posts themselves, I think.
[35:11.000 --> 35:19.000] I'm going to be working with my server admin to try to update the version of WordPress,
[35:19.000 --> 35:22.000] so hopefully there will be a search function on there soon
[35:22.000 --> 35:25.000] where you can actually search the comments as well.
[35:25.000 --> 35:29.000] But I believe it's documented.
[35:29.000 --> 35:32.000] The name Joe Edwards is documented in the blog post itself,
[35:32.000 --> 35:36.000] so if you do a search for Joe Edwards, you'll be able to find it, hopefully.
[35:36.000 --> 35:39.000] But I do need help from the listeners.
[35:39.000 --> 35:41.000] I need to solicit the listeners' help more,
[35:41.000 --> 35:43.000] because there's no way that I can document the archives.
[35:43.000 --> 35:45.000] I mean, I can't sit here and take notes
[35:45.000 --> 35:49.000] and write down all the caller's names and what their questions are
[35:49.000 --> 35:52.000] and all these things while I'm on the air and producing a show at the same time.
[35:52.000 --> 35:54.000] So I need help from the listeners.
[35:54.000 --> 35:55.000] Yeah.
[35:55.000 --> 35:58.000] You know, I've started building websites for a living,
[35:58.000 --> 36:02.000] and gosh, if I can just get ahead enough, I'd love to donate some time.
[36:02.000 --> 36:05.000] And I think the Joe Edwards stuff goes back to WTPRN days.
[36:05.000 --> 36:06.000] In fact, I'm sure it does.
[36:06.000 --> 36:10.000] I remember getting nostalgic when I heard the music and the bumpers and all that.
[36:10.000 --> 36:11.000] It could be.
[36:11.000 --> 36:15.000] And if it is, why don't you let the listeners know what date that is,
[36:15.000 --> 36:17.000] if you've got the archive?
[36:17.000 --> 36:18.000] Yeah, you know, I'll do that.
[36:18.000 --> 36:19.000] I'll pull it up right now.
[36:19.000 --> 36:23.000] But in the meantime, I'll try to multitask so I'm not burning up air time.
[36:23.000 --> 36:27.000] But yeah, Eddie, what he did was just mind-bending.
[36:27.000 --> 36:34.000] I mean, the way he melded commercial and statutory law through UCC 1-103
[36:34.000 --> 36:37.000] and I guess there are, and I've looked this up in California,
[36:37.000 --> 36:41.000] there are statutes that mirror that UCC code.
[36:41.000 --> 36:46.000] Just the stuff he did, God, I've just listened to it over and over,
[36:46.000 --> 36:48.000] and it's pretty powerful.
[36:48.000 --> 36:51.000] But anyway, if you guys remember, I called in last Friday.
[36:51.000 --> 36:57.000] I had gotten pulled over for no license registration, blah, blah, blah.
[36:57.000 --> 37:00.000] And I had handed the policeman a notice,
[37:00.000 --> 37:04.000] which I emailed you guys last Friday right before the show.
[37:04.000 --> 37:10.000] I don't know if you guys read it, but when I went into court, the case was gone.
[37:10.000 --> 37:12.000] And I have a feeling that after reading that notice,
[37:12.000 --> 37:17.000] he decided not to do anything about it and didn't even put it through the system.
[37:17.000 --> 37:22.000] And that was kind of cool, but now I'm stuck with, well, not stuck with,
[37:22.000 --> 37:25.000] I was kind of excited to go into court and try to fight this.
[37:25.000 --> 37:31.000] But now I have the situation where the towing company has towed my car with no ticket on file,
[37:31.000 --> 37:33.000] and you guys said I could go after the towing company,
[37:33.000 --> 37:35.000] and I'm thinking, what, tort letter or what?
[37:35.000 --> 37:36.000] Where should I start?
[37:36.000 --> 37:37.000] What do you think?
[37:37.000 --> 37:39.000] Yeah, I would.
[37:39.000 --> 37:44.000] And actually, you can give them a chance to return the car at no charge,
[37:44.000 --> 37:47.000] or you have the option of just suing them outright.
[37:47.000 --> 37:50.000] A tort letter is just a courtesy.
[37:50.000 --> 37:53.000] It's not a requirement in the case of somebody like a tow company.
[37:53.000 --> 37:56.000] Sure.
[37:56.000 --> 37:57.000] Well, I have the car back.
[37:57.000 --> 37:59.000] This happened in January.
[37:59.000 --> 38:00.000] So I got the car back.
[38:00.000 --> 38:02.000] Right, but you paid for it, right?
[38:02.000 --> 38:06.000] But I did pay for it, so I want to go after them for the money.
[38:06.000 --> 38:10.000] So I should just start with a letter, I suppose.
[38:10.000 --> 38:12.000] Right?
[38:12.000 --> 38:17.000] Yeah, you can tell them that, well, no, you could just sue them outright for recovery of the money.
[38:17.000 --> 38:18.000] Right.
[38:18.000 --> 38:23.000] And just accuse them of stealing your car in conspiratorial concert
[38:23.000 --> 38:27.000] with whatever officer told them to do it.
[38:27.000 --> 38:30.000] Yeah, I don't know.
[38:30.000 --> 38:34.000] I can envision, okay, first of all, it will probably go through small claims.
[38:34.000 --> 38:35.000] It's 500 bucks.
[38:35.000 --> 38:36.000] It depends on how much it is.
[38:36.000 --> 38:39.000] It's 500 bucks.
[38:39.000 --> 38:42.000] And you're going to sue them just for the 500 bucks?
[38:42.000 --> 38:45.000] Well, I would imagine I'd go for triple.
[38:45.000 --> 38:46.000] At least.
[38:46.000 --> 38:50.000] But you can go up 10K here in Texas, even though, constitutionally speaking,
[38:50.000 --> 38:53.000] I still don't think that's viable.
[38:53.000 --> 38:54.000] Yeah, okay.
[38:54.000 --> 39:04.000] Well, in California, I think it's, I can't remember if it's 7,500 or 12,500 or what.
[39:04.000 --> 39:11.000] Okay, so I would imagine my angle would be that, hey, you guys towed my car.
[39:11.000 --> 39:12.000] Why?
[39:12.000 --> 39:13.000] I mean, I almost kind of have to play dumb.
[39:13.000 --> 39:19.000] Well, what I would do is this, I would accuse them of having a ransoming,
[39:19.000 --> 39:26.000] automobile ransom ring with the police department where they actually go in
[39:26.000 --> 39:32.000] and the police call them to come steal the car under some presumed authority,
[39:32.000 --> 39:37.000] charge the money, and they pay kickbacks to the cops later.
[39:37.000 --> 39:45.000] Well, isn't that going, that seems like I'm kind of reaching or, you know,
[39:45.000 --> 39:49.000] accusing them of something that I have no evidence for.
[39:49.000 --> 39:51.000] Well, will that really matter if they want to drop it
[39:51.000 --> 39:53.000] and settle to get it out of their hair?
[39:53.000 --> 39:57.000] Or are you thinking that going that far with it right off the bat
[39:57.000 --> 39:58.000] will give me a lot of leverage?
[39:58.000 --> 40:00.000] Is that what you're thinking?
[40:00.000 --> 40:05.000] Well, I'm thinking somebody having to clean out their shorts at a rapid rate
[40:05.000 --> 40:08.000] is tending to be more responsive to certain things
[40:08.000 --> 40:11.000] than one who thinks they've got everything in control.
[40:11.000 --> 40:13.000] Yeah, yeah.
[40:13.000 --> 40:18.000] Now, when you point out the little thing that there is no record of this ticket
[40:18.000 --> 40:24.000] ever being filed with a court, which is evidence that the officer never filed it,
[40:24.000 --> 40:29.000] yet the officer called you to assist in the taking of my property.
[40:29.000 --> 40:35.000] So if this is not a criminal conspiracy, why wasn't the ticket filed?
[40:35.000 --> 40:39.000] Why isn't there a record of it in the court?
[40:39.000 --> 40:42.000] Right, so this is kind of the crux of my question is,
[40:42.000 --> 40:48.000] should I bring up with them initially that there even was a ticket or not?
[40:48.000 --> 40:51.000] Well, you've got to bring up the premise that, allegedly,
[40:51.000 --> 40:54.000] that's the authority they had for taking the car.
[40:54.000 --> 40:55.000] Right, right.
[40:55.000 --> 41:00.000] You're accusing them of conspiring with the cops just to make that appearance
[41:00.000 --> 41:05.000] so you would pay the money, because there is no ticket in the court.
[41:05.000 --> 41:08.000] There is no case.
[41:08.000 --> 41:09.000] You see what I'm saying?
[41:09.000 --> 41:13.000] Sure, sure, okay.
[41:13.000 --> 41:16.000] Okay, yeah, well, that gives me an angle to work with,
[41:16.000 --> 41:23.000] and I think I'll start with a nice, friendly letter, spelling those things out.
[41:23.000 --> 41:25.000] Yeah, well, that's what I would work on right there,
[41:25.000 --> 41:31.000] because that alone gives you a prima facie case that this was set up
[41:31.000 --> 41:37.000] to work this way on purpose, proving it's not really the point.
[41:37.000 --> 41:38.000] Right.
[41:38.000 --> 41:40.000] Now, what about going after the cop?
[41:40.000 --> 41:43.000] Is there any...
[41:43.000 --> 41:47.000] Sure, the cop conspired with them.
[41:47.000 --> 41:51.000] Should I try to bring him into the situation in his personal capacity?
[41:51.000 --> 41:54.000] Absolutely.
[41:54.000 --> 41:56.000] Acting under color of law.
[41:56.000 --> 41:59.000] Right, because as soon as there's no case, no ticket,
[41:59.000 --> 42:05.000] then he was acting outside of his duties.
[42:05.000 --> 42:06.000] Right.
[42:06.000 --> 42:08.000] Now, here's the one thing that you're going to run into.
[42:08.000 --> 42:12.000] If you get him in enough hot water, he's going to go crying to somebody,
[42:12.000 --> 42:17.000] and they may do something to cover his backside, so be aware of that.
[42:17.000 --> 42:19.000] Right, like dig up the ticket and say,
[42:19.000 --> 42:22.000] oh, after all, we're creating the case after all.
[42:22.000 --> 42:27.000] That's kind of what I was thinking, too, so I didn't know if I wanted to go that route.
[42:27.000 --> 42:29.000] I think I'd rather just go after the towing company.
[42:29.000 --> 42:32.000] This guy, he admitted to me, it was really funny,
[42:32.000 --> 42:35.000] I rolled my window down about an inch, and I passed the letter through the crack,
[42:35.000 --> 42:41.000] and I read about two lines of it, which included that he was being filmed,
[42:41.000 --> 42:43.000] and he said, what's this?
[42:43.000 --> 42:45.000] And I said, well, read it.
[42:45.000 --> 42:47.000] And he said, well, I don't know what to do with this.
[42:47.000 --> 42:52.000] I'm new on the job or something like that, which was really dumb of him to say to me.
[42:52.000 --> 43:00.000] But I have a feeling that it ended up being three cop cars there, six officers.
[43:00.000 --> 43:02.000] They all called for backup.
[43:02.000 --> 43:05.000] They thought I was one of these domestic terrorists.
[43:05.000 --> 43:11.000] And by the end of the evening, I had gotten them in a conversation
[43:11.000 --> 43:14.000] about how restricting the right to travel was one of the first things
[43:14.000 --> 43:18.000] that every repressive regime on earth has done.
[43:18.000 --> 43:23.000] I think some of them got the message and probably gave him some advice to,
[43:23.000 --> 43:28.000] hey, you're kind of new, maybe you shouldn't even turn this ticket in.
[43:28.000 --> 43:31.000] You're going to have to argue this in court one way or the other.
[43:31.000 --> 43:35.000] Yeah, but I don't know that I want to go after him.
[43:35.000 --> 43:39.000] Okay, well, that call is yours, but that's a recommendation I've got on it.
[43:39.000 --> 43:44.000] Okay, if you want to hold me over, I had one other real quick thing.
[43:44.000 --> 43:46.000] Okay, I'll see you on the other side of the break.
[43:46.000 --> 43:51.000] All right, folks, this is Rule of Law Radio 512-646-1984.
[43:51.000 --> 43:53.000] Gene, Mitchell, Jim, we see you on the board.
[43:53.000 --> 43:54.000] Please hang on.
[43:54.000 --> 43:56.000] We'll get to you on the other side of the break.
[43:56.000 --> 43:57.000] This is Rule of Law Radio.
[43:57.000 --> 44:00.000] We'll be right back.
[44:00.000 --> 44:03.000] It is so enlightening to listen to 90.1 FM,
[44:03.000 --> 44:06.000] but finding things on the Internet isn't so easy,
[44:06.000 --> 44:09.000] and neither is finding like-minded people to share it with.
[44:09.000 --> 44:12.000] Oh, well, I guess you haven't heard of Brave New Books, then.
[44:12.000 --> 44:13.000] Brave New Books?
[44:13.000 --> 44:16.000] Yes, Brave New Books has all the books and DVDs you're looking for
[44:16.000 --> 44:20.000] by authors like Alex Jones, Ron Paul, and G. Edward Griffin.
[44:20.000 --> 44:24.000] They even stock inner food, Berkey products, and Calvin Soaps.
[44:24.000 --> 44:26.000] There's no way a place like that exists.
[44:26.000 --> 44:28.000] Go check it out for yourself.
[44:28.000 --> 44:32.000] It's downtown at 1904 Guadalupe Street just south of UT.
[44:32.000 --> 44:35.000] By UT, there's never anywhere to park down there.
[44:35.000 --> 44:38.000] Actually, they now offer a free hour of parking
[44:38.000 --> 44:41.000] for paying customers at the 500 MLK parking facility
[44:41.000 --> 44:43.000] just behind the bookstore.
[44:43.000 --> 44:46.000] It does exist, but when are they open?
[44:46.000 --> 44:51.000] Monday through Saturday, 11 AM to 9 PM, and 1 to 6 PM on Sundays.
[44:51.000 --> 44:55.000] So give them a call at 512-480-2503,
[44:55.000 --> 45:05.000] or check out their events page at bravenewbookstore.com.
[45:25.000 --> 45:28.000] In conjunction with the science of modern nutrition,
[45:28.000 --> 45:31.000] adaptogenic herbs serve as the healing component,
[45:31.000 --> 45:35.000] and organic hemp protein in greens and superfoods
[45:35.000 --> 45:38.000] act as a balanced nutrient base.
[45:38.000 --> 45:42.000] Plus, chintrician tastes great in just water.
[45:42.000 --> 45:45.000] This powder supplement is everything you'd want in a product,
[45:45.000 --> 45:47.000] and it's all natural.
[45:47.000 --> 45:56.000] Visit chintrician.com to order yours or call 1-866-497-7436.
[45:56.000 --> 46:01.000] After you use chintrician, you'll believe in supplements again.
[46:01.000 --> 46:17.000] ??
[46:17.000 --> 46:22.000] ? If you could not wait any longer??
[46:22.000 --> 46:27.000] ??
[46:27.000 --> 46:46.000] All right, folks, we are back. We're going to finish up with Vince in California. Gene,
[46:46.000 --> 46:49.000] Mitchell, and Jim, hang in there. We'll be with you in just a moment. All right, Vince,
[46:49.000 --> 46:50.000] go ahead.
[46:50.000 --> 46:57.000] Okay. I just wanted to say that Joe Edwards stuff is still available on the web. The WTPRN
[46:57.000 --> 47:03.000] website is still up. It's WTPRN.com. If you go to archives on the left, then rule of law
[47:03.000 --> 47:14.000] 2008. The show dates are August 18th and August 22nd and August 29th.
[47:14.000 --> 47:17.000] And this is of the year 2008?
[47:17.000 --> 47:20.000] 2008, yes.
[47:20.000 --> 47:21.000] Cool, thanks.
[47:21.000 --> 47:24.000] And everybody's got to, if you're new to the show, if you weren't around back then, you've
[47:24.000 --> 47:28.000] got to go listen to that. And Eddie, I'll send you a direct link to it.
[47:28.000 --> 47:30.000] I'd appreciate that. That would be good.
[47:30.000 --> 47:35.000] Yeah, God, it's just really great. And Deborah, one of the things on that, on one of those
[47:35.000 --> 47:40.000] episodes, Tony Davis went on for about an hour about Title 18 never having been approved
[47:40.000 --> 47:47.000] correctly or never having been certified.
[47:47.000 --> 47:48.000] Ratified.
[47:48.000 --> 47:50.000] Whatever happened with that? That was so interesting.
[47:50.000 --> 47:58.000] He's been shot down in court multiple times over that. I remember him explaining that
[47:58.000 --> 48:02.000] and he may be right, but the courts are not accepting that. They're saying...
[48:02.000 --> 48:07.000] It's like they're not accepting the same thing with Title 26 not being substantive law either
[48:07.000 --> 48:09.000] because it's not in the federal registry.
[48:09.000 --> 48:13.000] So I'm not so sure that Tony Davis' assessment is accurate on that matter either.
[48:13.000 --> 48:17.000] That may be the reason why he's not getting any success in court.
[48:17.000 --> 48:23.000] And actually, I've asked Harmon Taylor about that and he said that that's a non sequitur basically.
[48:23.000 --> 48:26.000] So I'll ask Harmon about that on Friday.
[48:26.000 --> 48:31.000] Oh, cool. Yeah, I'd be looking forward to hearing what he says about it because that was
[48:31.000 --> 48:35.000] sure really interesting stuff. But thank you guys.
[48:35.000 --> 48:38.000] I will let you go and let somebody else jump in there.
[48:38.000 --> 48:40.000] All right, Vince. Thanks for calling in. Appreciate it.
[48:40.000 --> 48:41.000] Okay.
[48:41.000 --> 48:42.000] All right. Bye-bye.
[48:42.000 --> 48:48.000] All right. Jean in New York. Good evening, Jean. What can we do for you?
[48:48.000 --> 48:50.000] Hi, Eddie. How are you?
[48:50.000 --> 48:52.000] I'm good. And you?
[48:52.000 --> 48:57.000] Good. Thank you. I called a few weeks ago. I was the one that was stopped.
[48:57.000 --> 49:04.000] I came to a stop sign and the officer said that I didn't come to a complete stop.
[49:04.000 --> 49:13.000] And I went back there to see if he could really see clearly like if I really came to a stop or not.
[49:13.000 --> 49:18.000] And it seems like it was way out of range that he couldn't really see that.
[49:18.000 --> 49:22.000] And I have to go to court on the 5th of April.
[49:22.000 --> 49:24.000] What time of the day was it, Jean?
[49:24.000 --> 49:25.000] Pardon me?
[49:25.000 --> 49:28.000] What time of the day was it?
[49:28.000 --> 49:32.000] It was in the morning, probably about 730.
[49:32.000 --> 49:35.000] Clear, foggy, rainy?
[49:35.000 --> 49:37.000] Clear.
[49:37.000 --> 49:39.000] Okay.
[49:39.000 --> 49:48.000] But he was quite a ways away. He was like up in a driveway that went to another street.
[49:48.000 --> 49:58.000] Okay. And in the driveway where he's sitting, what direction, according to where you were, would his car be pointing from you?
[49:58.000 --> 50:04.000] It was facing the street and I was like kitty-cornered to him along the way.
[50:04.000 --> 50:11.000] On the passenger side or the driver's side from where he would be?
[50:11.000 --> 50:14.000] Probably the passenger side.
[50:14.000 --> 50:20.000] Okay. Which means it's possible that he had an obstructed view of you either because of the frame of his windshield,
[50:20.000 --> 50:28.000] his mirror or something of that nature unless he had it angled where he could see directly at the street you were on.
[50:28.000 --> 50:29.000] Okay. Go ahead.
[50:29.000 --> 50:32.000] That's true. Yeah.
[50:32.000 --> 50:40.000] But I have to go to court on the 5th of April and I don't want to plead guilty because I wasn't guilty.
[50:40.000 --> 50:42.000] I did come to a complete stop.
[50:42.000 --> 50:46.000] And how do I plead then?
[50:46.000 --> 50:51.000] Well, unless there's an actual signed complaint, I wouldn't plea at all.
[50:51.000 --> 50:57.000] You want to see what's in the court record before you do anything.
[50:57.000 --> 50:58.000] All right.
[50:58.000 --> 51:04.000] Okay. Now you had someone in the car with you, you said, or did you, or I'm sorry, you had just dropped them off at school, hadn't you?
[51:04.000 --> 51:06.000] Yes.
[51:06.000 --> 51:13.000] Okay. And this officer got you after they were out of the car.
[51:13.000 --> 51:15.000] Right.
[51:15.000 --> 51:23.000] Okay. Were there any other cars around and by any chance do you know anybody that was there?
[51:23.000 --> 51:26.000] Not that I know of. No.
[51:26.000 --> 51:41.000] Okay. So even if you pleaded not guilty, what would be the officer's evidence other than just his own opinion?
[51:41.000 --> 51:43.000] None that I know of.
[51:43.000 --> 51:49.000] Okay. So of course you're going to ask for a jury trial if you have to go that route, right?
[51:49.000 --> 51:51.000] Right.
[51:51.000 --> 51:56.000] Okay. So if I were you, if they asked me to plead, I would just say innocent.
[51:56.000 --> 51:59.000] Well, they're going to say you have to plead guilty or not guilty.
[51:59.000 --> 52:01.000] No, I plead innocent.
[52:01.000 --> 52:03.000] Okay.
[52:03.000 --> 52:07.000] Make them enter a plea for you, which they're going to do most likely.
[52:07.000 --> 52:15.000] But if you do wind up having to go to court on this, it's his word against yours in front of a jury, okay?
[52:15.000 --> 52:23.000] And you can demonstrate how it would have been at best difficult for him to see you clearly from that distance,
[52:23.000 --> 52:33.000] but how you are quite certain that there's no way that you didn't stop, especially was there any other cross traffic at that time?
[52:33.000 --> 52:41.000] No, but there's kind of like a hill. So like if I'm, you know, looking to my left, there's like a hill that the cars come up,
[52:41.000 --> 52:46.000] so you would have to stop to see if anybody's coming up that hill.
[52:46.000 --> 52:52.000] Okay. Then I would just take some pictures of the area.
[52:52.000 --> 52:56.000] Take also pictures from the vantage point where the officer would have been.
[52:56.000 --> 53:02.000] Try to figure out as best you can how his car was parked to the best of your recollection.
[53:02.000 --> 53:09.000] Take pictures from the point of view he would have had to have had sitting where he was sitting and in his seat.
[53:09.000 --> 53:12.000] See if there's any view obstruction.
[53:12.000 --> 53:17.000] Try to angle your car several different ways to see if he gets a clear, straight view through the window,
[53:17.000 --> 53:21.000] and then take pictures of any cars coming through that intersection.
[53:21.000 --> 53:31.000] And if you have a video camera, do it with video because it would make it easier to see whether or not a car does or doesn't stop.
[53:31.000 --> 53:39.000] And you can take a look at it and see did that car come to a full stop and see if you could have made that judgment on your own.
[53:39.000 --> 53:42.000] Right.
[53:42.000 --> 53:49.000] And these are all things you can introduce into evidence if you're willing to get on the stand and testify on your own behalf.
[53:49.000 --> 53:55.000] Okay. Now if I do play innocent, would I get in trouble in any way?
[53:55.000 --> 54:01.000] No, they're just going to throw a fit because they would rather you just use the word guilty in some form.
[54:01.000 --> 54:04.000] All right.
[54:04.000 --> 54:11.000] Okay, so I didn't know how to go about this, you know, this proceeding, so.
[54:11.000 --> 54:12.000] Say that again.
[54:12.000 --> 54:18.000] No, I said so I didn't know how to go about this proceeding, so that's why I called because I wasn't really sure how to proceed it.
[54:18.000 --> 54:19.000] Yeah, do that and.
[54:19.000 --> 54:22.000] I didn't want to play guilty because I'm not guilty, so.
[54:22.000 --> 54:29.000] Right. Now, the other thing I would do is I'd also go ahead and submit a request for discovery.
[54:29.000 --> 54:38.000] And I would ask for some interrogatories, which is you're asking the officer to answer a set of specific questions.
[54:38.000 --> 54:45.000] And those questions would be something along the lines of what was your exact position?
[54:45.000 --> 54:49.000] What direction was your cruiser facing?
[54:49.000 --> 54:53.000] Were you in the passenger or driver's seat of the cruiser?
[54:53.000 --> 55:00.000] Was there any obstruction to your view through the passenger side if you were in the driver's seat of the cruiser?
[55:00.000 --> 55:03.000] And so on and so forth.
[55:03.000 --> 55:05.000] Okay.
[55:05.000 --> 55:06.000] Now, what do you call that again?
[55:06.000 --> 55:08.000] Something of discovery?
[55:08.000 --> 55:09.000] It's a list.
[55:09.000 --> 55:13.000] It's discovery, but it's called interrogatories.
[55:13.000 --> 55:15.000] Oh, okay.
[55:15.000 --> 55:19.000] Okay, it's discovery through the means of interrogatories.
[55:19.000 --> 55:20.000] Okay.
[55:20.000 --> 55:29.000] And also in that same discovery, ask for a copy of any and all video that was taken that day
[55:29.000 --> 55:36.000] and if it is intended to be used in your case or not if it relates to you.
[55:36.000 --> 55:38.000] Okay.
[55:38.000 --> 55:39.000] All right.
[55:39.000 --> 55:40.000] Okay.
[55:40.000 --> 55:42.000] Well, thank you very much, Eddie.
[55:42.000 --> 55:43.000] You're very welcome, Gene.
[55:43.000 --> 55:45.000] Thank you for calling in.
[55:45.000 --> 55:46.000] You too.
[55:46.000 --> 55:47.000] Bye-bye.
[55:47.000 --> 55:48.000] Thank you.
[55:48.000 --> 55:49.000] Bye.
[55:49.000 --> 55:50.000] All right.
[55:50.000 --> 55:51.000] Let's go to Mitchell in Texas.
[55:51.000 --> 55:53.000] Joe and Jim, we see you.
[55:53.000 --> 55:54.000] Hang on.
[55:54.000 --> 55:55.000] We'll be right with you.
[55:55.000 --> 55:56.000] All right.
[55:56.000 --> 55:57.000] Mitchell, what can we do for you?
[55:57.000 --> 55:59.000] Eddie, can you hear me all right?
[55:59.000 --> 56:02.000] I'm calling on Skype for the first time.
[56:02.000 --> 56:05.000] Yeah, we can hear you, but you're going to get in trouble.
[56:05.000 --> 56:07.000] I can almost guarantee you that.
[56:07.000 --> 56:10.000] We can hear you, but it's like we can just barely hear you.
[56:10.000 --> 56:13.000] We kind of ask that the listeners, if people want to call in,
[56:13.000 --> 56:17.000] just use the regular telephone because headsets in general do not work on the air.
[56:17.000 --> 56:20.000] In fact, when I tell the call screeners and when I screen calls,
[56:20.000 --> 56:24.000] I tell people don't use a Bluetooth, don't use a headset, and with Skype,
[56:24.000 --> 56:28.000] you pretty much have to use a headset unless you're going to use the onboard mic of your laptop,
[56:28.000 --> 56:29.000] which is even worse.
[56:29.000 --> 56:33.000] So I pretty much would rather people not use Skype at all.
[56:33.000 --> 56:34.000] I mean, the hosts use Skype,
[56:34.000 --> 56:38.000] but they also have professional audio interfaces for the computer.
[56:38.000 --> 56:40.000] But go ahead, Mitchell, we can hear you,
[56:40.000 --> 56:43.000] but you sound a little thin and in the background there,
[56:43.000 --> 56:45.000] but we'll try to work through it.
[56:45.000 --> 56:46.000] Go ahead.
[56:46.000 --> 56:48.000] Okay, I'll try to be brief.
[56:48.000 --> 56:58.000] Can you give a brief refresher on what I thought was presented maybe like a year ago about police in Texas
[56:58.000 --> 57:04.000] that issue traffic citations needing to have had a specific type of training
[57:04.000 --> 57:08.000] in order to issue those traffic citations?
[57:08.000 --> 57:13.000] And also, if you remember, there was a website you referred to,
[57:13.000 --> 57:16.000] and I know you may not remember the specific site,
[57:16.000 --> 57:23.000] but maybe anything I could search for in a search engine where someone had actually looked up
[57:23.000 --> 57:29.000] which officers for different cities had had that training.
[57:29.000 --> 57:35.000] Well, the thing you're referring to was as far as the list of who's had the training,
[57:35.000 --> 57:37.000] it was for different municipalities,
[57:37.000 --> 57:42.000] and it was gotten through a Freedom of Information request or an open records request,
[57:42.000 --> 57:46.000] so it's not available on a given website.
[57:46.000 --> 57:48.000] As far as the material you're speaking of,
[57:48.000 --> 57:57.000] it comes directly out of the Texas Administrative Code, Title 37, Rule 4.13,
[57:57.000 --> 58:01.000] and that deals with the certification requirements of officers
[58:01.000 --> 58:08.000] to enforce the commercial inspections and traffic nature rules,
[58:08.000 --> 58:11.000] which all of them are in the Transportation Code,
[58:11.000 --> 58:18.000] but you can find that in Title 37, Rule 4.13, Texas Administrative Code.
[58:18.000 --> 58:20.000] Great. Thank you, Eddie.
[58:20.000 --> 58:22.000] You're welcome.
[58:22.000 --> 58:24.000] All right, folks, we're about to go to break.
[58:24.000 --> 58:27.000] We have one more time here. Jim, Joe, hang in there.
[58:27.000 --> 58:29.000] We'll pick you up on the other side.
[58:29.000 --> 58:33.000] This is our top-of-the-hour break, so we'll be off for about three to four minutes,
[58:33.000 --> 58:35.000] but when we get back, we'll take Jim and Joe.
[58:35.000 --> 58:37.000] You'll be right behind him after that.
[58:37.000 --> 58:39.000] So, folks, please hang in there.
[58:39.000 --> 58:43.000] This is Rule of Law Radio with Eddie Craig, Deborah Stevens, Randy Kelton.
[58:43.000 --> 58:48.000] 512-646-1984 is the call-in number.

[58:57.000 --> 59:00.000] We'll be right back on the other side of the break.
[59:00.000 --> 59:04.000] The Bible remains the most popular book in the world,
[59:04.000 --> 59:08.000] yet countless readers are frustrated because they struggle to understand it.
[59:08.000 --> 59:12.000] Some new translations try to help by simplifying the text,
[59:12.000 --> 59:17.000] but in the process can compromise the profound meaning of the Scripture.
[59:17.000 --> 59:19.000] Enter the Recovery Version.
[59:19.000 --> 59:23.000] First, this new translation is extremely faithful and accurate,
[59:23.000 --> 59:28.000] but the real story is the more than 9,000 explanatory footnotes.
[59:28.000 --> 59:32.000] Difficult and profound passages are opened up in a marvelous way,
[59:32.000 --> 59:38.000] providing an entrance into the riches of the Word beyond which you've ever experienced before.

[01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:04.000] This news brief brought to you by The International News Next.
[01:00:04.000 --> 01:00:08.000] Syria deployed security forces Sunday to the northern city of Latakia
[01:00:08.000 --> 01:00:12.000] after 12 people were killed in anti-government protests.
[01:00:12.000 --> 01:00:15.000] Thousands of demonstrators challenging President Bashar al-Assad
[01:00:15.000 --> 01:00:19.000] have been killed in similar clashes in towns and cities across the country,
[01:00:19.000 --> 01:00:22.000] including Dara and Sanamin.
[01:00:22.000 --> 01:00:30.000] Syria has been under repressive emergency rule since the 1963 coup brought the Ba'ath Party to power.
[01:00:30.000 --> 01:00:34.000] German Chancellor Angela Merkel was humiliated after losing to the Green Party
[01:00:34.000 --> 01:00:39.000] in the prosperous region of Baden-Württemberg in state elections over the weekend
[01:00:39.000 --> 01:00:42.000] through fears of nuclear power.
[01:00:42.000 --> 01:00:45.000] Merkel's ruling Christian Democrat Union lost in the vital election
[01:00:45.000 --> 01:00:48.000] where her party had ruled for nearly 60 years.
[01:00:48.000 --> 01:00:52.000] The Green Party will have its first state premier following the election,
[01:00:52.000 --> 01:00:57.000] seen as a referendum on the country's nuclear energy policy.
[01:00:57.000 --> 01:01:02.000] Yemen's President Ali Abdullah Saleh clinging to power despite weeks of protests
[01:01:02.000 --> 01:01:05.000] Sunday withdrew an offer to step down by year's end.
[01:01:05.000 --> 01:01:09.000] Saleh said Yemen is a ticking bomb, adding without him in power,
[01:01:09.000 --> 01:01:12.000] the country would descend into civil war.
[01:01:12.000 --> 01:01:16.000] Saleh's opponents, a group that started with students and expanded to include
[01:01:16.000 --> 01:01:21.000] defecting military commanders, politicians, diplomats, and Saleh's own tribe
[01:01:21.000 --> 01:01:25.000] had rejected his offer a week ago.
[01:01:25.000 --> 01:01:30.000] US-led military action in Libya has bolstered rebels fighting Muammar Gaddafi's forces,
[01:01:30.000 --> 01:01:33.000] but the Obama administration says the international operation
[01:01:33.000 --> 01:01:35.000] could continue for months.
[01:01:35.000 --> 01:01:39.000] Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Sunday
[01:01:39.000 --> 01:01:43.000] the intervention had effectively rendered Gaddafi's forces defenseless
[01:01:43.000 --> 01:01:47.000] against air attacks and allowed anti-government forces to recapture
[01:01:47.000 --> 01:01:50.000] the key eastern city of Ajbaya.
[01:01:50.000 --> 01:01:53.000] Gates said the Pentagon was planning how to draw down resources
[01:01:53.000 --> 01:01:56.000] that will be assigned to European and other countries,
[01:01:56.000 --> 01:02:00.000] but asked if that would mean a US military commitment until year's end.
[01:02:00.000 --> 01:02:04.000] Gates said, I don't think anybody knows the answer to that.
[01:02:04.000 --> 01:02:09.000] Gates said with tenuous democratic transitions underway in Tunisia and Egypt,
[01:02:09.000 --> 01:02:15.000] allowing the entire region to be destabilized was a dangerous option.
[01:02:15.000 --> 01:02:18.000] Egyptians marched Sunday on their interim cabinet,
[01:02:18.000 --> 01:02:23.000] protesting the recently decreed anti-strike law introduced by acting Prime Minister
[01:02:23.000 --> 01:02:24.000] Essam Sharraf.
[01:02:24.000 --> 01:02:28.000] Egypt has witnessed a surge in strikes, demonstrations, and sit-ins
[01:02:28.000 --> 01:02:31.000] that began before the fall of dictator Hosni Mubarak
[01:02:31.000 --> 01:02:34.000] and has continued despite threats from the military.
[01:02:34.000 --> 01:02:38.000] Under the new decree, it is a criminal offense to participate
[01:02:38.000 --> 01:02:42.000] in a strike, demonstration, or sit-in that disrupts the economy.
[01:02:42.000 --> 01:02:45.000] Calling for these actions or encouraging others to participate
[01:02:45.000 --> 01:02:50.000] is punishable by up to a year in prison and a fine of $84,000.
[01:02:50.000 --> 01:02:53.000] Postal workers, teachers, hospital employees, and police
[01:02:53.000 --> 01:02:58.000] were still on strike at the time the decree was issued.
[01:03:23.000 --> 01:03:33.000] It's all according to the will of the Almighty
[01:03:33.000 --> 01:03:40.000] I read his book and it says, cares come for the unsightly
[01:03:40.000 --> 01:03:49.000] These warmongers come by that time of Friday
[01:03:49.000 --> 01:03:53.000] All right, folks, we are back.
[01:03:53.000 --> 01:03:55.000] This is Runas Law Radio.
[01:03:55.000 --> 01:03:59.000] 512-646-1984 is the call-in number.
[01:03:59.000 --> 01:04:02.000] We have Jim, Joe, Dominic, and Ron.
[01:04:02.000 --> 01:04:04.000] Right now, let's go to Jim in Texas.
[01:04:04.000 --> 01:04:06.000] Jim, what's up?
[01:04:06.000 --> 01:04:12.000] Well, last month I got stopped by a municipal police officer.
[01:04:12.000 --> 01:04:15.000] He said I did not have a license plate on the front of my automobile,
[01:04:15.000 --> 01:04:18.000] which is why he pulled me over.
[01:04:18.000 --> 01:04:22.000] And I handed him a judicial notice and affidavit.
[01:04:22.000 --> 01:04:23.000] And he said, what's this?
[01:04:23.000 --> 01:04:26.000] And I said, well, that details your position there
[01:04:26.000 --> 01:04:29.000] where you do not have the authority to arrest me.
[01:04:29.000 --> 01:04:32.000] You are already under color of law.
[01:04:32.000 --> 01:04:35.000] He read a couple of lines on it and handed it back to me.
[01:04:35.000 --> 01:04:37.000] And I handed it back to him.
[01:04:37.000 --> 01:04:38.000] Oh, no, you keep that.
[01:04:38.000 --> 01:04:40.000] That is evidence on there.
[01:04:40.000 --> 01:04:45.000] He did not read all of it and proceeded to write me a ticket
[01:04:45.000 --> 01:04:50.000] for no driver's license, no inspection, expired registration,
[01:04:50.000 --> 01:04:54.000] and no proof of insurance.
[01:04:54.000 --> 01:05:00.000] When I went to court on it, well, first off,
[01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:03.000] I went and checked my court file or court record on there.
[01:05:03.000 --> 01:05:08.000] And he had filed an affidavit on each account.
[01:05:08.000 --> 01:05:14.000] And the court clerk had notarized each affidavit.
[01:05:14.000 --> 01:05:17.000] When I went into court, the prosecutor
[01:05:17.000 --> 01:05:19.000] dismissed everything on there.
[01:05:19.000 --> 01:05:23.000] So some of that works on there.
[01:05:23.000 --> 01:05:27.000] I was prepared, though, to file criminal complaints against him
[01:05:27.000 --> 01:05:32.000] on four counts, one for each, no, six counts on there,
[01:05:32.000 --> 01:05:36.000] and also criminal complaints against the court clerk.
[01:05:36.000 --> 01:05:41.000] And if they had proceeded, I had the paperwork there to file
[01:05:41.000 --> 01:05:44.000] a bar grievance against the prosecutor
[01:05:44.000 --> 01:05:48.000] as well as prosecutorial misconduct.
[01:05:48.000 --> 01:05:51.000] And if the judge would have decided to hear it,
[01:05:51.000 --> 01:05:54.000] I had the paperwork to file judicial misconduct against her
[01:05:54.000 --> 01:05:56.000] also and a bar grievance.
[01:05:56.000 --> 01:05:57.000] Well, good.
[01:05:57.000 --> 01:05:59.000] I thought I would share that with everybody.
[01:05:59.000 --> 01:06:00.000] Well, good.
[01:06:00.000 --> 01:06:03.000] What notice did you give him?
[01:06:03.000 --> 01:06:07.000] The one you had got from one of your cases,
[01:06:07.000 --> 01:06:09.000] judicial notice and affidavit.
[01:06:09.000 --> 01:06:12.000] Ah, the one from the traffic seminar material.
[01:06:12.000 --> 01:06:13.000] Yes, uh-huh.
[01:06:13.000 --> 01:06:15.000] OK, good.
[01:06:15.000 --> 01:06:18.000] It does have information they don't want to have to respond to
[01:06:18.000 --> 01:06:20.000] in court.
[01:06:20.000 --> 01:06:23.000] Yes, very definitely.
[01:06:23.000 --> 01:06:27.000] And that's what I'm trying to get folks to understand.
[01:06:27.000 --> 01:06:30.000] All those guys over in Ellis County that keep saying,
[01:06:30.000 --> 01:06:33.000] well, that notice wouldn't do you any good over here.
[01:06:33.000 --> 01:06:36.000] Well, guys, you haven't had the opportunity to see what's in it
[01:06:36.000 --> 01:06:38.000] yet, have you?
[01:06:38.000 --> 01:06:41.000] But needless to say, thanks for calling in and letting us know
[01:06:41.000 --> 01:06:42.000] that, Jim.
[01:06:42.000 --> 01:06:46.000] It helps to know that the material is doing people some good.
[01:06:46.000 --> 01:06:50.000] Whether the guys want to read it or not really doesn't matter.
[01:06:50.000 --> 01:06:52.000] Well, like I told them, this is evidence.
[01:06:52.000 --> 01:06:54.000] You need to hang on to it.
[01:06:54.000 --> 01:06:57.000] And it is also in the back of the notice there that this is
[01:06:57.000 --> 01:06:58.000] evidence.
[01:06:58.000 --> 01:07:01.000] If you do not bring it to court or lose it or whatever,
[01:07:01.000 --> 01:07:05.000] then you could be a felony of tampering with evidence
[01:07:05.000 --> 01:07:08.000] or destroying evidence on there.
[01:07:08.000 --> 01:07:09.000] Good.
[01:07:09.000 --> 01:07:12.000] All that is in there, and that most certainly is true.
[01:07:12.000 --> 01:07:15.000] They are required to protect it since it was picked up in the
[01:07:15.000 --> 01:07:16.000] stop.
[01:07:16.000 --> 01:07:20.000] Now, anything else on that?
[01:07:20.000 --> 01:07:21.000] No.
[01:07:21.000 --> 01:07:25.000] It's just been my experience that if you want to be left alone,
[01:07:25.000 --> 01:07:27.000] you need to get their attention, and the best way to get their
[01:07:27.000 --> 01:07:30.000] attention is hit them in the pocketbook.
[01:07:30.000 --> 01:07:31.000] Yep.
[01:07:31.000 --> 01:07:33.000] That would do it every time.
[01:07:33.000 --> 01:07:38.000] Oh, by the way, was the notice in your file that you gave the
[01:07:38.000 --> 01:07:39.000] cop?
[01:07:39.000 --> 01:07:40.000] Yes, yes.
[01:07:40.000 --> 01:07:42.000] The notice was in my file, yes.
[01:07:42.000 --> 01:07:43.000] Okay.
[01:07:43.000 --> 01:07:46.000] So the cop did understand the difference and he did make sure
[01:07:46.000 --> 01:07:47.000] it was turned in.
[01:07:47.000 --> 01:07:48.000] Oh, yes.
[01:07:48.000 --> 01:07:49.000] Good.
[01:07:49.000 --> 01:07:50.000] Yes.
[01:07:50.000 --> 01:07:53.000] Now, by any chance, did you get copies of the information from
[01:07:53.000 --> 01:07:57.000] your folder that the officer filled out for the affidavits?
[01:07:57.000 --> 01:07:58.000] No.
[01:07:58.000 --> 01:08:03.000] I would have to pay for that on there, and I didn't want to part
[01:08:03.000 --> 01:08:04.000] with the money.
[01:08:04.000 --> 01:08:05.000] Okay.
[01:08:05.000 --> 01:08:07.000] I was going to say if you had, if you wouldn't mind sharing
[01:08:07.000 --> 01:08:10.000] those, we can show people the kind of things these officers are
[01:08:10.000 --> 01:08:12.000] doing, but that's okay if you did or you didn't.
[01:08:12.000 --> 01:08:13.000] Yeah.
[01:08:13.000 --> 01:08:17.000] Well, basically, he just filed an affidavit that I didn't have a
[01:08:17.000 --> 01:08:18.000] driver's license.
[01:08:18.000 --> 01:08:22.000] He filed an affidavit that there was no inspection sticker on the
[01:08:22.000 --> 01:08:23.000] automobile.
[01:08:23.000 --> 01:08:28.000] He filed an affidavit, you know, basically what he put on the
[01:08:28.000 --> 01:08:29.000] ticket on there.
[01:08:29.000 --> 01:08:32.000] Just swore to it that that was true and correct is what was on
[01:08:32.000 --> 01:08:33.000] the ticket on it.
[01:08:33.000 --> 01:08:34.000] Right.
[01:08:34.000 --> 01:08:35.000] All right.
[01:08:35.000 --> 01:08:38.000] Thanks for calling in and letting us know, Jim.
[01:08:38.000 --> 01:08:39.000] You're welcome, Eddie.
[01:08:39.000 --> 01:08:40.000] Have a good evening.
[01:08:40.000 --> 01:08:41.000] You, too.
[01:08:41.000 --> 01:08:42.000] Bye-bye.
[01:08:42.000 --> 01:08:43.000] Bye-bye.
[01:08:43.000 --> 01:08:44.000] All right.
[01:08:44.000 --> 01:08:46.000] Well, that actually worked out pretty good.
[01:08:46.000 --> 01:08:47.000] Good luck there, Jim.
[01:08:47.000 --> 01:08:48.000] Thank you, Butch.
[01:08:48.000 --> 01:08:50.000] And keep up the good work.
[01:08:50.000 --> 01:08:51.000] All right.
[01:08:51.000 --> 01:08:52.000] Joe, what can we do for you, Joe?
[01:08:52.000 --> 01:08:54.000] Eddie, I had a question.
[01:08:54.000 --> 01:08:57.000] What date are you supposed to meet with the rep?
[01:08:57.000 --> 01:08:58.000] I've already met with the rep.
[01:08:58.000 --> 01:09:01.000] Now it's a matter of him getting us set up with a judicial
[01:09:01.000 --> 01:09:04.000] committee hearing.
[01:09:04.000 --> 01:09:07.000] I met with the rep this past Wednesday.
[01:09:07.000 --> 01:09:08.000] Okay.
[01:09:08.000 --> 01:09:13.000] Well, I must have had a late hearing on the radio.
[01:09:13.000 --> 01:09:17.000] So anyway, but I have the phone number and I'm going to call him
[01:09:17.000 --> 01:09:18.000] up as well.
[01:09:18.000 --> 01:09:19.000] Yeah, please do.
[01:09:19.000 --> 01:09:22.000] That's what I would like for everyone around here to do.
[01:09:22.000 --> 01:09:27.000] Call up Representative White, 512-463-0490.
[01:09:27.000 --> 01:09:30.000] Tell him you had a gentleman by the name of Eddie Craig in to
[01:09:30.000 --> 01:09:34.000] see you with some issues over the Code of Criminal Procedure
[01:09:34.000 --> 01:09:37.000] that needs to go before the judicial committee.
[01:09:37.000 --> 01:09:39.000] You promised to set up a hearing.
[01:09:39.000 --> 01:09:42.000] Please make sure that you do that.
[01:09:42.000 --> 01:09:43.000] Okay.
[01:09:43.000 --> 01:09:44.000] Well, thank you.
[01:09:44.000 --> 01:09:45.000] All right.
[01:09:45.000 --> 01:09:46.000] Thank you.
[01:09:46.000 --> 01:09:48.000] Thanks for calling in, Joe.
[01:09:48.000 --> 01:09:49.000] All right.
[01:09:49.000 --> 01:09:50.000] Dominic in Minnesota.
[01:09:50.000 --> 01:09:52.000] Ron, we see you there in California.
[01:09:52.000 --> 01:09:54.000] If you'll hang on, we'll get to you right after Dominic.
[01:09:54.000 --> 01:09:56.000] All right, Dominic, what can we do for you?
[01:09:56.000 --> 01:09:57.000] Hey, good evening.
[01:09:57.000 --> 01:09:58.000] How are you guys doing?
[01:09:58.000 --> 01:09:59.000] Great.
[01:09:59.000 --> 01:10:00.000] And you?
[01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:01.000] Hello.
[01:10:01.000 --> 01:10:02.000] Can you guys hear me?
[01:10:02.000 --> 01:10:03.000] Yeah.
[01:10:03.000 --> 01:10:04.000] Yeah, we can hear you.
[01:10:04.000 --> 01:10:05.000] We're doing fine.
[01:10:05.000 --> 01:10:06.000] Thank you.
[01:10:06.000 --> 01:10:07.000] What's on your mind, Dominic?
[01:10:07.000 --> 01:10:09.000] Well, yeah, I'm kind of new to all this stuff here and I just,
[01:10:09.000 --> 01:10:12.000] I got this number off of a show I was listening to on the
[01:10:12.000 --> 01:10:16.000] Internet and I just basically called in to listen to the show
[01:10:16.000 --> 01:10:19.000] and I guess I got in the queue here.
[01:10:19.000 --> 01:10:25.000] But I'm in a couple of cases right now and, well,
[01:10:25.000 --> 01:10:31.000] I went through a trial and basically they threw out all my
[01:10:31.000 --> 01:10:35.000] briefs and all the constitutional stuff,
[01:10:35.000 --> 01:10:42.000] Andrew 16, book 16, the Supreme Court sites that I had in there,
[01:10:42.000 --> 01:10:44.000] all the stuff, they threw it out.
[01:10:44.000 --> 01:10:47.000] And just ran me through.
[01:10:47.000 --> 01:10:50.000] And how do I get them to go buy it?
[01:10:50.000 --> 01:10:53.000] You're in the state where the legislature lets the judiciary
[01:10:53.000 --> 01:10:55.000] write their own law.
[01:10:55.000 --> 01:10:57.000] You realize that, right?
[01:10:57.000 --> 01:10:59.000] All right, well, I'm realizing it now.
[01:10:59.000 --> 01:11:00.000] Yeah.
[01:11:00.000 --> 01:11:03.000] Your judiciary sold you out.
[01:11:03.000 --> 01:11:08.000] They gave the courts in Minnesota an illegal power under
[01:11:08.000 --> 01:11:10.000] your Constitution.
[01:11:10.000 --> 01:11:15.000] They allow the court to ignore law and make their own rules
[01:11:15.000 --> 01:11:18.000] for everything as they go along.
[01:11:18.000 --> 01:11:20.000] Well, there's got to be some remedy.
[01:11:20.000 --> 01:11:23.000] I mean, one has to think.
[01:11:23.000 --> 01:11:27.000] Well, when you go in there, don't rely just on the court
[01:11:27.000 --> 01:11:29.000] sites that you're trying to use.
[01:11:29.000 --> 01:11:34.000] You need to use them in support of the laws of Minnesota.
[01:11:34.000 --> 01:11:35.000] Okay.
[01:11:35.000 --> 01:11:36.000] Okay.
[01:11:36.000 --> 01:11:38.000] Don't just throw case sightings at them.
[01:11:38.000 --> 01:11:42.000] You need to back it up with actually what's in the law,
[01:11:42.000 --> 01:11:46.000] and you need to always do it in writing.
[01:11:46.000 --> 01:11:48.000] Do not do it orally.
[01:11:48.000 --> 01:11:50.000] Do not do it verbally.
[01:11:50.000 --> 01:11:54.000] Do it in writing, because nine times out of ten,
[01:11:54.000 --> 01:11:58.000] what you file will be the only record there is.
[01:11:58.000 --> 01:11:59.000] Great.
[01:11:59.000 --> 01:12:02.000] Well, I'm in two cases right now.
[01:12:02.000 --> 01:12:05.000] The one case, there's only one case that I was able to,
[01:12:05.000 --> 01:12:10.000] I think I succeeded in it, where I went in there,
[01:12:10.000 --> 01:12:15.000] and I went in there with the FISA,
[01:12:15.000 --> 01:12:18.000] and I told them that I was sovereign,
[01:12:18.000 --> 01:12:21.000] and I was immune to these things.
[01:12:21.000 --> 01:12:26.000] Well, first, I said that I was here under duress,
[01:12:26.000 --> 01:12:28.000] and she said, I didn't order this hearing.
[01:12:28.000 --> 01:12:30.000] You did, and I didn't order it.
[01:12:30.000 --> 01:12:33.000] I just submitted a motion to dismiss,
[01:12:33.000 --> 01:12:35.000] so I didn't order the hearing either.
[01:12:35.000 --> 01:12:36.000] Actually, yeah, you did.
[01:12:36.000 --> 01:12:39.000] The filing of a motion requires a hearing upon that motion,
[01:12:39.000 --> 01:12:42.000] and if you don't set a date, the court will set one.
[01:12:42.000 --> 01:12:47.000] Oh, well, anyway, at the end of the thing,
[01:12:47.000 --> 01:12:50.000] she said that I wasn't here under duress,
[01:12:50.000 --> 01:12:52.000] and I said, well, that she didn't order it.
[01:12:52.000 --> 01:12:54.000] And I said, well, I didn't order it either,
[01:12:54.000 --> 01:12:56.000] so I said, I'm going to go.
[01:12:56.000 --> 01:12:57.000] I'm going to leave.
[01:12:57.000 --> 01:13:00.000] And I ended up walking out of the courtroom,
[01:13:00.000 --> 01:13:02.000] and nobody said anything.
[01:13:02.000 --> 01:13:05.000] She held me till last because they started reading my brief,
[01:13:05.000 --> 01:13:07.000] and I ended up walking out,
[01:13:07.000 --> 01:13:09.000] and I haven't heard anything from that case,
[01:13:09.000 --> 01:13:12.000] and this was about two months ago.
[01:13:12.000 --> 01:13:17.000] And that's the only thing that's worked as far as here so far.
[01:13:17.000 --> 01:13:20.000] Well, it worked as far as you know
[01:13:20.000 --> 01:13:22.000] until the next time you get filed.
[01:13:22.000 --> 01:13:23.000] Yeah, right, right.
[01:13:23.000 --> 01:13:27.000] Okay, so let's get back to something
[01:13:27.000 --> 01:13:31.000] that's just straight up common sense kind of thing here.
[01:13:31.000 --> 01:13:35.000] If you file a motion, you are moving the court to do something.
[01:13:35.000 --> 01:13:38.000] That's what a motion is, moving the court.
[01:13:38.000 --> 01:13:40.000] Got that part?
[01:13:40.000 --> 01:13:41.000] Yep.
[01:13:41.000 --> 01:13:45.000] Second part is there has to be a hearing on that motion
[01:13:45.000 --> 01:13:47.000] that moves the court.
[01:13:47.000 --> 01:13:50.000] Now, if you fail to set a time,
[01:13:50.000 --> 01:13:53.000] the court will usually set one for you.
[01:13:53.000 --> 01:13:55.000] Okay, I understand that. Okay.
[01:13:55.000 --> 01:13:58.000] So what you have to get into is whether or not
[01:13:58.000 --> 01:14:02.000] you are filing the motion as a special appearance,
[01:14:02.000 --> 01:14:05.000] not under duress.
[01:14:05.000 --> 01:14:09.000] Special appearance means I am not waiving any of my rights
[01:14:09.000 --> 01:14:11.000] in order to file this motion
[01:14:11.000 --> 01:14:14.000] to challenge the jurisdiction of the court.
[01:14:14.000 --> 01:14:17.000] I do not make a general appearance,
[01:14:17.000 --> 01:14:20.000] which would waive my impersonal jurisdiction.
[01:14:20.000 --> 01:14:24.000] I make a special appearance for the express purpose
[01:14:24.000 --> 01:14:27.000] of challenging the court's jurisdiction.
[01:14:27.000 --> 01:14:28.000] Okay.
[01:14:28.000 --> 01:14:30.000] Then you back it up with your law,
[01:14:30.000 --> 01:14:34.000] and you back it up with the court cases that support your law
[01:14:34.000 --> 01:14:38.000] and your understanding of it.
[01:14:38.000 --> 01:14:43.000] Okay, well, I did that with this last one, the USC,
[01:14:43.000 --> 01:14:46.000] the Supreme Court case sites and the...
[01:14:46.000 --> 01:14:49.000] Are you being charged under the USC?
[01:14:49.000 --> 01:14:53.000] I'm being charged under the Highway Traffic Code
[01:14:53.000 --> 01:14:55.000] here in Minnesota.
[01:14:55.000 --> 01:14:59.000] Okay, and where is your information that shows
[01:14:59.000 --> 01:15:02.000] that Title 49 and your Minnesota Code
[01:15:02.000 --> 01:15:05.000] are joined together at the hip?
[01:15:05.000 --> 01:15:09.000] Well, mine is the Supreme Court site where it says...
[01:15:09.000 --> 01:15:11.000] Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
[01:15:11.000 --> 01:15:13.000] Okay, go ahead.
[01:15:13.000 --> 01:15:18.000] Where is the law that ties the Minnesota statutes
[01:15:18.000 --> 01:15:21.000] to the United States Code?
[01:15:21.000 --> 01:15:26.000] There's the one they've brought up or found.
[01:15:26.000 --> 01:15:30.000] Did you ever bother to go read the original statutory enactment
[01:15:30.000 --> 01:15:35.000] or legislative enactment on your state transportation code
[01:15:35.000 --> 01:15:39.000] or DMV code or whatever it is there in Minnesota?
[01:15:39.000 --> 01:15:42.000] Yeah, they strip out a lot of stuff,
[01:15:42.000 --> 01:15:44.000] and they've changed a lot of stuff.
[01:15:44.000 --> 01:15:47.000] They can't strip out a lot of stuff from an original session law.
[01:15:47.000 --> 01:15:50.000] It's recorded in books.
[01:15:50.000 --> 01:15:54.000] Right, but I mean, they take out stuff
[01:15:54.000 --> 01:15:57.000] where the newest one was like back in...
[01:15:57.000 --> 01:15:58.000] You're missing the point here.
[01:15:58.000 --> 01:16:03.000] There's a difference between statutes and session laws.
[01:16:03.000 --> 01:16:05.000] A big difference.
[01:16:05.000 --> 01:16:10.000] A statute is more or less a regulation
[01:16:10.000 --> 01:16:14.000] that is the result of the existing law.
[01:16:14.000 --> 01:16:16.000] It is not the law.
[01:16:16.000 --> 01:16:20.000] It is evidence that there is a law,
[01:16:20.000 --> 01:16:25.000] and this is the regulations associated with that law.
[01:16:25.000 --> 01:16:28.000] Where is your law is my question,
[01:16:28.000 --> 01:16:31.000] not the changes in your regulations or statutes.
[01:16:31.000 --> 01:16:33.000] We know that happens.
[01:16:33.000 --> 01:16:38.000] Where is the original law that says what those regulations
[01:16:38.000 --> 01:16:43.000] and statutes are limited to applying to?
[01:16:43.000 --> 01:16:44.000] Okay.
[01:16:44.000 --> 01:16:46.000] That's what we've got to find.
[01:16:46.000 --> 01:16:47.000] Hang on just a second.
[01:16:47.000 --> 01:16:50.000] We'll pick this up on the other side, and then we'll get to run.
[01:16:50.000 --> 01:16:54.000] This is Rule of Law Radio 512-646-1984.
[01:16:54.000 --> 01:16:55.000] It's a call-in number.
[01:16:55.000 --> 01:16:56.000] Give us a call.
[01:16:56.000 --> 01:16:59.000] We'll be right back.

[01:17:14.000 --> 01:17:17.000] Because of you, Austin, business has been so good
[01:17:17.000 --> 01:17:20.000] that we've had to move to a new and bigger location.

[01:17:29.000 --> 01:17:32.000] in the Stanley Insurance Building on the ground floor
[01:17:32.000 --> 01:17:35.000] next to the Ishuban Sushi and the Genie Car Wash.

[01:17:53.000 --> 01:18:00.000] at 73-04 Burnett Road Suite A or call 512-646-6440.
[01:18:00.000 --> 01:18:04.000] My name is Randall Kelton, and I co-host on Rule of Law Radio.
[01:18:04.000 --> 01:18:07.000] We specialize in showing people how to strike back
[01:18:07.000 --> 01:18:09.000] against corrupt public officials.
[01:18:09.000 --> 01:18:11.000] With the mortgage crisis worsening,
[01:18:11.000 --> 01:18:13.000] we set our sights on finding a remedy
[01:18:13.000 --> 01:18:16.000] for people who have been cheated by their lenders.
[01:18:16.000 --> 01:18:18.000] If you have a mortgage or have paid yours off,
[01:18:18.000 --> 01:18:21.000] you have probably been cheated out of thousands,
[01:18:21.000 --> 01:18:22.000] but there is a remedy.
[01:18:22.000 --> 01:18:30.000] Go to remediesinrealestate.com or call me at 512-430-4140
[01:18:30.000 --> 01:18:33.000] and find out how to use the consumer protection laws
[01:18:33.000 --> 01:18:37.000] to recover what the lenders have stolen through fraud and deception.
[01:18:37.000 --> 01:18:40.000] We will prepare for you a qualified written request
[01:18:40.000 --> 01:18:44.000] that will expose the fraud and put the lenders on the dime.
[01:18:44.000 --> 01:18:48.000] Lender fraud is bankrupting this country, and it's time to fight back.
[01:18:48.000 --> 01:18:55.000] Go to remediesinrealestate.com or call 512-430-4140

[01:19:03.000 --> 01:19:26.000] Alright folks, we are back at the School of Law Radio.
[01:19:26.000 --> 01:19:28.000] 512-646-1984 is the call-in number.
[01:19:28.000 --> 01:19:30.000] So if you're out there listening in,
[01:19:30.000 --> 01:19:32.000] have any questions or comments, please give us a call.
[01:19:32.000 --> 01:19:35.000] We're going to go ahead and finish up with Dominic in Minnesota,
[01:19:35.000 --> 01:19:37.000] and then we'll head on over to Ron.
[01:19:37.000 --> 01:19:39.000] Alright, Dominic, what you got?
[01:19:39.000 --> 01:19:40.000] Let's finish up.
[01:19:40.000 --> 01:19:45.000] Well, yeah, well, I don't know, if you guys could maybe give me a site
[01:19:45.000 --> 01:19:51.000] or some helps out here, some way we can support you.
[01:19:51.000 --> 01:19:57.000] Okay, first thing I recommend you do, find a law library, some university,
[01:19:57.000 --> 01:20:02.000] some, if you got one in downtown capital somewhere that you have access to,
[01:20:02.000 --> 01:20:05.000] go find a law library.
[01:20:05.000 --> 01:20:12.000] Ask them what are the actual legislative session laws
[01:20:12.000 --> 01:20:16.000] that all the statutes and codes are currently based on.
[01:20:16.000 --> 01:20:24.000] For instance, here in Texas, the actual session law is from 1925,
[01:20:24.000 --> 01:20:30.000] and everything in the code books is based upon those actual laws.
[01:20:30.000 --> 01:20:34.000] So what those laws said they applied to in 25
[01:20:34.000 --> 01:20:41.000] is the limit of what the statutes and regulations can apply to today.
[01:20:41.000 --> 01:20:45.000] Those session laws, can they change those session laws?
[01:20:45.000 --> 01:20:51.000] Sure, if they ever actually change session law and create new session law,
[01:20:51.000 --> 01:20:53.000] but they're not.
[01:20:53.000 --> 01:20:57.000] They're changing and revising statutory law,
[01:20:57.000 --> 01:21:04.000] which is the rules and regulations built upon that foundational law.
[01:21:04.000 --> 01:21:06.000] Okay.
[01:21:06.000 --> 01:21:09.000] All right, well, yeah, that helps me a lot.
[01:21:09.000 --> 01:21:11.000] I appreciate that.
[01:21:11.000 --> 01:21:14.000] That's something I did not know.
[01:21:14.000 --> 01:21:15.000] That's the problem.
[01:21:15.000 --> 01:21:16.000] Most people don't.
[01:21:16.000 --> 01:21:19.000] They think that what they're looking at is the law.
[01:21:19.000 --> 01:21:21.000] That's not the case.
[01:21:21.000 --> 01:21:25.000] It is the regulations associated with the law,
[01:21:25.000 --> 01:21:29.000] but the actual base law is something very different.
[01:21:29.000 --> 01:21:34.000] Does the session law, does that tie into the USC then or no?
[01:21:34.000 --> 01:21:42.000] If your session law shows that the state of Minnesota in act this pursuant
[01:21:42.000 --> 01:21:48.000] the federal funded program of transportation management,
[01:21:48.000 --> 01:21:53.000] then you can show the federal link that proves federal funding.
[01:21:53.000 --> 01:21:57.000] If you can show the program is federally funded,
[01:21:57.000 --> 01:22:03.000] then there must be an umbrella program at the fed level under which it sits.
[01:22:03.000 --> 01:22:06.000] Guess which one that is.
[01:22:06.000 --> 01:22:11.000] Okay.
[01:22:11.000 --> 01:22:12.000] All right.
[01:22:12.000 --> 01:22:13.000] Okay.
[01:22:13.000 --> 01:22:15.000] Okay.
[01:22:15.000 --> 01:22:16.000] Well, very good.
[01:22:16.000 --> 01:22:18.000] I appreciate all your helps here.
[01:22:18.000 --> 01:22:19.000] You know, every little bit helps.
[01:22:19.000 --> 01:22:22.000] I tell you, it's fighting the beast, man.
[01:22:22.000 --> 01:22:25.000] Well, that's what it is, and it's true everywhere.
[01:22:25.000 --> 01:22:28.000] All right, but thanks for calling in, Dominic.
[01:22:28.000 --> 01:22:29.000] Thank you.
[01:22:29.000 --> 01:22:30.000] Bye-bye.
[01:22:30.000 --> 01:22:31.000] Bye-bye.
[01:22:31.000 --> 01:22:33.000] All right, Ron in California.
[01:22:33.000 --> 01:22:34.000] Then we have John in Texas.
[01:22:34.000 --> 01:22:36.000] Ron, what can we do for you?
[01:22:36.000 --> 01:22:37.000] Hey, how you doing?
[01:22:37.000 --> 01:22:40.000] I'm over here in Alameda County, California,
[01:22:40.000 --> 01:22:45.000] and I got into a little situation where my job found out that I don't have a state
[01:22:45.000 --> 01:22:47.000] driver's license.
[01:22:47.000 --> 01:22:52.000] So basically I need to transfer my license to California,
[01:22:52.000 --> 01:22:56.000] but I got holders due to failure to appears that I haven't went to
[01:22:56.000 --> 01:22:59.000] just for little minor traffic tickets.
[01:22:59.000 --> 01:23:02.000] And today I went to the walking court,
[01:23:02.000 --> 01:23:05.000] and I had a bill of particulars,
[01:23:05.000 --> 01:23:08.000] because I've been doing a little bit of research on it,
[01:23:08.000 --> 01:23:12.000] and one route that I saw was to file a bill of particulars
[01:23:12.000 --> 01:23:18.000] claiming that I understand the nature of the charges that are against me.
[01:23:18.000 --> 01:23:22.000] So I went to the law library, and I got the form for a bill of particulars,
[01:23:22.000 --> 01:23:24.000] and I filed it.
[01:23:24.000 --> 01:23:26.000] I was trying to file it with the clerk.
[01:23:26.000 --> 01:23:29.000] She wouldn't accept it, because she said she didn't know what it was.
[01:23:29.000 --> 01:23:31.000] And then the judge came.
[01:23:31.000 --> 01:23:32.000] He looked at it.
[01:23:32.000 --> 01:23:34.000] I told him I wasn't going to cross the bar,
[01:23:34.000 --> 01:23:37.000] because I didn't want to inspire any jurisdiction or anything like that,
[01:23:37.000 --> 01:23:39.000] and he said, okay, fine, that's okay.
[01:23:39.000 --> 01:23:41.000] And he looked at the bill of particulars I had,
[01:23:41.000 --> 01:23:46.000] and he said, well, this is not applicable to this court,
[01:23:46.000 --> 01:23:49.000] because it's a civil proceeding.
[01:23:49.000 --> 01:23:53.000] And I was like, well, isn't this a quasi-contract court?
[01:23:53.000 --> 01:23:57.000] You know, the rules here, because I got from Nexus,
[01:23:57.000 --> 01:24:00.000] they said that I could do a bill of particulars,
[01:24:00.000 --> 01:24:03.000] and the judge said this is not a quasi-contract court.
[01:24:03.000 --> 01:24:04.000] What are you talking about?
[01:24:04.000 --> 01:24:06.000] You know, what are you talking about?
[01:24:06.000 --> 01:24:10.000] And basically I ended up having to plead my guilty,
[01:24:10.000 --> 01:24:12.000] because she would not take the holder off my license,
[01:24:12.000 --> 01:24:15.000] because I said they didn't have no jurisdiction.
[01:24:15.000 --> 01:24:18.000] So he said, well, if you're not appearing,
[01:24:18.000 --> 01:24:20.000] then I can't take the holder off the license,
[01:24:20.000 --> 01:24:23.000] and they wouldn't take my bill of particulars.
[01:24:23.000 --> 01:24:26.000] I just pretty much had to plead my guilty
[01:24:26.000 --> 01:24:29.000] so I can go and keep working, you know.
[01:24:29.000 --> 01:24:31.000] That's pretty much the whole reason.
[01:24:31.000 --> 01:24:33.000] Okay, let me interject something here, Ron.
[01:24:33.000 --> 01:24:34.000] Yes.
[01:24:34.000 --> 01:24:39.000] The first thing is you're not crossing the bar to grant jurisdiction, okay?
[01:24:39.000 --> 01:24:41.000] Okay.
[01:24:41.000 --> 01:24:45.000] Courts have jurisdiction in three particular instances,
[01:24:45.000 --> 01:24:50.000] and they must have all three jurisdictions or they have none.
[01:24:50.000 --> 01:24:52.000] Now, follow this closely.
[01:24:52.000 --> 01:24:53.000] Okay.
[01:24:53.000 --> 01:24:55.000] They must have subject matter,
[01:24:55.000 --> 01:25:00.000] meaning the offense itself must be within their power
[01:25:00.000 --> 01:25:04.000] and with the authority of law for that particular court
[01:25:04.000 --> 01:25:06.000] to adjudicate that case.
[01:25:06.000 --> 01:25:10.000] Got that?
[01:25:10.000 --> 01:25:11.000] Hello?
[01:25:11.000 --> 01:25:12.000] Yeah, I'm here.
[01:25:12.000 --> 01:25:13.000] I hear you. Hello?
[01:25:13.000 --> 01:25:14.000] Okay.
[01:25:14.000 --> 01:25:15.000] Okay.
[01:25:15.000 --> 01:25:18.000] So they must have jurisdiction of the offense
[01:25:18.000 --> 01:25:20.000] because the law gives it to them.
[01:25:20.000 --> 01:25:21.000] Okay.
[01:25:21.000 --> 01:25:26.000] The second thing is they must have impersonal jurisdiction,
[01:25:26.000 --> 01:25:31.000] meaning that the person that allegedly committed the offense
[01:25:31.000 --> 01:25:37.000] was within the jurisdiction of that court when they committed that offense
[01:25:37.000 --> 01:25:41.000] that the court by law has jurisdiction of.
[01:25:41.000 --> 01:25:42.000] Got that part?
[01:25:42.000 --> 01:25:44.000] Okay.
[01:25:44.000 --> 01:25:49.000] And the third is venue, where the offense occurred.
[01:25:49.000 --> 01:25:56.000] It must have occurred in a geographic or territorial boundary location
[01:25:56.000 --> 01:26:03.000] that that court has specific law authority over.
[01:26:03.000 --> 01:26:06.000] If you committed the offense in New Mexico,
[01:26:06.000 --> 01:26:10.000] California does not have venue jurisdiction.
[01:26:10.000 --> 01:26:16.000] They also, by definition, would not have impersonal jurisdiction.
[01:26:16.000 --> 01:26:21.000] Though it may deal with a subject over which, had it occurred in California,
[01:26:21.000 --> 01:26:24.000] that court would have had jurisdiction over.
[01:26:24.000 --> 01:26:26.000] You following all that?
[01:26:26.000 --> 01:26:27.000] Yeah, I understand.
[01:26:27.000 --> 01:26:30.000] But, okay, I went to the law library again today,
[01:26:30.000 --> 01:26:34.000] and it says here for lack of jurisdiction, this is a demurrer.
[01:26:34.000 --> 01:26:37.000] Somebody told me I needed to file a demurrer instead of a bill of particulars.
[01:26:37.000 --> 01:26:40.000] That's true, but that's not the issue I'm talking about.
[01:26:40.000 --> 01:26:45.000] What I'm talking about is you talking about where you cross this, that, or the other.
[01:26:45.000 --> 01:26:47.000] That's got nothing to do with nothing.
[01:26:47.000 --> 01:26:51.000] It's simply where you're standing when you open your mouth to debate the court.
[01:26:51.000 --> 01:26:52.000] Right.
[01:26:52.000 --> 01:26:55.000] It's got nothing to do with jurisdiction.
[01:26:55.000 --> 01:26:56.000] Yeah, okay.
[01:26:56.000 --> 01:26:57.000] I understand that.
[01:26:57.000 --> 01:26:58.000] Okay.
[01:26:58.000 --> 01:27:02.000] My whole thing, what I had written down, though, was it says here,
[01:27:02.000 --> 01:27:08.000] if it's an unconstitutional statute under the demurrer,
[01:27:08.000 --> 01:27:12.000] I can still file that they have lack of jurisdiction.
[01:27:12.000 --> 01:27:13.000] Okay.
[01:27:13.000 --> 01:27:14.000] Well, here's the thing.
[01:27:14.000 --> 01:27:20.000] If you're going to challenge the thing on constitutionality, you're going to lose.
[01:27:20.000 --> 01:27:25.000] What you can challenge it on is constitutional application.
[01:27:25.000 --> 01:27:30.000] Do not say the statute itself is unconstitutional
[01:27:30.000 --> 01:27:34.000] because if it's applied properly, it probably isn't.
[01:27:34.000 --> 01:27:35.000] Okay.
[01:27:35.000 --> 01:27:41.000] It is unconstitutional, however, if it is applied to someone
[01:27:41.000 --> 01:27:47.000] and restricts them of a right that the Constitution specifically protects.
[01:27:47.000 --> 01:27:50.000] The statute's not unconstitutional.
[01:27:50.000 --> 01:27:52.000] Its application is.
[01:27:52.000 --> 01:27:54.000] Okay, okay.
[01:27:54.000 --> 01:27:55.000] All right?
[01:27:55.000 --> 01:27:59.000] You need to be specific and detailed in what you argue and why.
[01:27:59.000 --> 01:28:04.000] These are the little things the courts look at to find a way to shoot you down.
[01:28:04.000 --> 01:28:05.000] Mm-hmm.
[01:28:05.000 --> 01:28:12.000] Because I have to go tomorrow again for another one, and that was off of the red light cameras.
[01:28:12.000 --> 01:28:13.000] Right.
[01:28:13.000 --> 01:28:14.000] Yeah.
[01:28:14.000 --> 01:28:17.000] You really need to be talking to Rick.
[01:28:17.000 --> 01:28:20.000] Rick out there in California has been giving California hell
[01:28:20.000 --> 01:28:23.000] for a good couple of years now over this stuff
[01:28:23.000 --> 01:28:26.000] and has pretty much got this down to a science.
[01:28:26.000 --> 01:28:28.000] You got some of his contact information?
[01:28:28.000 --> 01:28:29.000] Yes, I do.
[01:28:29.000 --> 01:28:32.000] If you will please send me an offline email.
[01:28:32.000 --> 01:28:35.000] He has given me permission to send out his cell phone.
[01:28:35.000 --> 01:28:40.000] I will not broadcast it, however, but I will send it to you in an email if you'll contact me.
[01:28:40.000 --> 01:28:42.000] Yeah, we have his email address too.
[01:28:42.000 --> 01:28:45.000] Okay, and if Deborah will give that to me, I'll send that as well.
[01:28:45.000 --> 01:28:46.000] Yeah.
[01:28:46.000 --> 01:28:47.000] What's your email address?
[01:28:47.000 --> 01:28:54.000] Eddie, E-D-D-I-E, at ruleoflawradio.com.
[01:28:54.000 --> 01:28:56.000] All right, thank you very much, sir.
[01:28:56.000 --> 01:28:57.000] Appreciate it.
[01:28:57.000 --> 01:28:58.000] Yes, sir, not a problem.
[01:28:58.000 --> 01:28:59.000] Good luck.
[01:28:59.000 --> 01:29:00.000] Bye-bye.
[01:29:00.000 --> 01:29:01.000] Well, thanks for calling in.
[01:29:01.000 --> 01:29:09.000] So tomorrow, just to ask, I could just – you could demur on a constitutional application?
[01:29:09.000 --> 01:29:10.000] Yes.
[01:29:10.000 --> 01:29:17.000] If you can make the argument that these rules are being applied to a noncommercial entity
[01:29:17.000 --> 01:29:24.000] in violation of the law and a constitutionally protected right, then absolutely.
[01:29:24.000 --> 01:29:25.000] I don't know that.
[01:29:25.000 --> 01:29:26.000] Yeah, I don't even know.
[01:29:26.000 --> 01:29:30.000] So where do I look to start to find that information?
[01:29:30.000 --> 01:29:34.000] That's what we need to get you in touch with Rick Ford, PDQ.
[01:29:34.000 --> 01:29:35.000] Okay, all right.
[01:29:35.000 --> 01:29:40.000] I'd file a motion for continuous and see if I can extend it a few days or a couple of
[01:29:40.000 --> 01:29:41.000] weeks.
[01:29:41.000 --> 01:29:44.000] Before I go, please, not guilty or whatever?
[01:29:44.000 --> 01:29:45.000] Yeah.
[01:29:45.000 --> 01:29:46.000] I wouldn't plead.
[01:29:46.000 --> 01:29:47.000] I'd ask for a continuance.
[01:29:47.000 --> 01:29:48.000] All right.
[01:29:48.000 --> 01:29:49.000] Okay.
[01:29:49.000 --> 01:29:50.000] Thanks for calling in, Ron.
[01:29:50.000 --> 01:29:51.000] All right.
[01:29:51.000 --> 01:29:52.000] Have a good one.
[01:29:52.000 --> 01:29:53.000] All right.
[01:29:53.000 --> 01:29:55.000] This is Rule of Law Radio, 512-646-1984.
[01:29:55.000 --> 01:29:58.000] Please give us a call.
[01:29:58.000 --> 01:30:05.000] We'll be right back.
[01:30:28.000 --> 01:30:53.000] We'll be right back.
[01:30:53.000 --> 01:31:12.000] We'll be right back.
[01:31:12.000 --> 01:31:37.000] We'll be right back.
[01:31:37.000 --> 01:31:56.000] We'll be right back.
[01:31:56.000 --> 01:32:11.000] We'll be right back.
[01:32:11.000 --> 01:32:27.000] We'll be right back.
[01:32:27.000 --> 01:32:42.000] We'll be right back.
[01:32:42.000 --> 01:32:57.000] We'll be right back.
[01:32:57.000 --> 01:32:58.000] All right, folks.
[01:32:58.000 --> 01:32:59.000] We are back.
[01:32:59.000 --> 01:33:06.000] This is Rule of Law Radio, Eddie Craig, Deborah Stevens, Randy Kelton, 512-646-1984.
[01:33:06.000 --> 01:33:10.000] We've got about a half an hour left in the show, so if you have anything to call in about,
[01:33:10.000 --> 01:33:14.000] you better get in line real quick so we can try to get you dealt with before we run out
[01:33:14.000 --> 01:33:15.000] of time.
[01:33:15.000 --> 01:33:17.000] Right now, let's go to John in Texas.
[01:33:17.000 --> 01:33:19.000] John, what can we do for you?
[01:33:19.000 --> 01:33:20.000] Yeah.
[01:33:20.000 --> 01:33:21.000] Good evening, Eddie.
[01:33:21.000 --> 01:33:22.000] Good evening.
[01:33:22.000 --> 01:33:25.000] Eddie, I wanted to say this first of all real quick.
[01:33:25.000 --> 01:33:30.000] I know you were mentioned on a show a couple days ago that you were thinking of contemplating
[01:33:30.000 --> 01:33:33.000] possibly a Sunday seminar.
[01:33:33.000 --> 01:33:34.000] Yeah.
[01:33:34.000 --> 01:33:38.000] We're trying to figure out whether or not we need to move the Saturdays to Sundays,
[01:33:38.000 --> 01:33:41.000] or if we might actually need to do it both days.
[01:33:41.000 --> 01:33:42.000] Yeah.
[01:33:42.000 --> 01:33:45.000] I have not been able to make it on a Saturday, Eddie.
[01:33:45.000 --> 01:33:49.000] I actually could, but it would cost me dearly.
[01:33:49.000 --> 01:33:54.000] Sunday, I could probably be a pretty regular attendee.
[01:33:54.000 --> 01:33:59.000] I'd be coming up from San Antonio, but Saturdays, especially this month, have been very tough
[01:33:59.000 --> 01:34:00.000] for me.
[01:34:00.000 --> 01:34:03.000] So I just wanted to give you that feedback.
[01:34:03.000 --> 01:34:04.000] Okay.
[01:34:04.000 --> 01:34:12.000] Eddie, I have an ongoing issue with the County Bandera.
[01:34:12.000 --> 01:34:15.000] I've talked to you about this before.
[01:34:15.000 --> 01:34:21.000] I filed charges against a constable, as you requested.
[01:34:21.000 --> 01:34:30.000] He had put a peel box on the location to appear before the magistrate on the citation.
[01:34:30.000 --> 01:34:31.000] Yeah.
[01:34:31.000 --> 01:34:39.000] I filed that back on the 15th of February, and I sent an email to the county attorney
[01:34:39.000 --> 01:34:42.000] and saying, hey, what's up with this?
[01:34:42.000 --> 01:34:47.000] And all he sent back is saying, well, you know, I haven't had a chance to review it,
[01:34:47.000 --> 01:34:51.000] you know, and I'll get to it as soon as I can, that sort of thing.
[01:34:51.000 --> 01:34:53.000] How long should I allow?
[01:34:53.000 --> 01:34:55.000] How much time should I give him?
[01:34:55.000 --> 01:35:04.000] And then at what point do I file on him for assuming he's going to blow it off, most likely?
[01:35:04.000 --> 01:35:10.000] Well, what is currently in your file?
[01:35:10.000 --> 01:35:14.000] Well, just the original complaint.
[01:35:14.000 --> 01:35:16.000] There is a complaint.
[01:35:16.000 --> 01:35:17.000] What's that?
[01:35:17.000 --> 01:35:20.000] There is an actual complaint.
[01:35:20.000 --> 01:35:26.000] Yes, he has a complaint that was filed back in, well, way back last year
[01:35:26.000 --> 01:35:30.000] when I originally got the citation back in August.
[01:35:30.000 --> 01:35:37.000] File a motion to dismiss, failure to prosecute, another motion to dismiss,
[01:35:37.000 --> 01:35:39.000] failure to provide a speedy trial.
[01:35:39.000 --> 01:35:43.000] Yeah, and I already did the speedy trial where he filed that one.
[01:35:43.000 --> 01:35:45.000] I have it somewhere here with me.
[01:35:45.000 --> 01:35:50.000] I filed that about a month ago, give or take.
[01:35:50.000 --> 01:35:51.000] It's okay.
[01:35:51.000 --> 01:35:54.000] I've done that.
[01:35:54.000 --> 01:36:00.000] So file a motion for failure to prosecute, dismiss, failure to prosecute.
[01:36:00.000 --> 01:36:01.000] Yeah.
[01:36:01.000 --> 01:36:04.000] Okay.
[01:36:04.000 --> 01:36:08.000] And then let's see.
[01:36:08.000 --> 01:36:13.000] Also, Eddie, you covered this sometime in the past on the complaint.
[01:36:13.000 --> 01:36:20.000] It actually, it is sworn to and subscribed before me and signed by the court clerk.
[01:36:20.000 --> 01:36:22.000] Yep.
[01:36:22.000 --> 01:36:30.000] And I remember you had said that that is a, she's probably doing this on company time.
[01:36:30.000 --> 01:36:34.000] On the clock in her official capacity, that is a major no-no.
[01:36:34.000 --> 01:36:35.000] Okay.
[01:36:35.000 --> 01:36:42.000] Because that involves a member of the court directly in the prosecution as the accuser.
[01:36:42.000 --> 01:36:45.000] The court's no longer fair and impartial.
[01:36:45.000 --> 01:36:46.000] Okay.
[01:36:46.000 --> 01:36:55.000] Plus it also means a member of the court has directly interfaced with the prosecution to make that complaint.
[01:36:55.000 --> 01:36:57.000] I see.
[01:36:57.000 --> 01:36:58.000] Okay.
[01:36:58.000 --> 01:37:04.000] So what would I do about that?
[01:37:04.000 --> 01:37:06.000] Well, same thing as before.
[01:37:06.000 --> 01:37:08.000] That's prosecutorial misconduct.
[01:37:08.000 --> 01:37:15.000] If he attempts to use that, you can also file a subpoena demanding that both the accuser
[01:37:15.000 --> 01:37:22.000] and the verifier of that complaint be made to appear in court to testify to their knowledge.
[01:37:22.000 --> 01:37:23.000] Okay.
[01:37:23.000 --> 01:37:28.000] And since she wouldn't have it, that would be, that would show that she's basically.
[01:37:28.000 --> 01:37:29.000] Yeah.
[01:37:29.000 --> 01:37:33.000] But your question is not along the lines of whether or not she has knowledge of the event.
[01:37:33.000 --> 01:37:36.000] You want to know about the complaint.
[01:37:36.000 --> 01:37:43.000] And trust me when I tell you, they're not going to like the questions you ask because it shows criminal
[01:37:43.000 --> 01:37:48.000] conspiracy between the court, the prosecution, and the clerk.
[01:37:48.000 --> 01:37:50.000] Okay.
[01:37:50.000 --> 01:37:58.000] You will have that prosecutor jumping up and screaming, dismiss, dismiss, so fast it's not even funny.
[01:37:58.000 --> 01:37:59.000] Great.
[01:37:59.000 --> 01:38:09.000] And I think my final one here, sir, is also I noticed on the complaint it had,
[01:38:09.000 --> 01:38:13.000] we were just talking about this a couple days ago, it was charged with breach of the peace
[01:38:13.000 --> 01:38:16.000] and that was factually invalid.
[01:38:16.000 --> 01:38:17.000] Yes.
[01:38:17.000 --> 01:38:24.000] When the conclusion of the complaint says against the peace, that is technical terms according to
[01:38:24.000 --> 01:38:28.000] Black's law for breach of the peace.
[01:38:28.000 --> 01:38:29.000] Right.
[01:38:29.000 --> 01:38:33.000] And they will tell you right up front, no breach of the peace occurred.
[01:38:33.000 --> 01:38:39.000] And if no breach of the peace occurred, that makes that statement factually and facially invalid in
[01:38:39.000 --> 01:38:44.000] the complaint because the complaint must be true and accurate.
[01:38:44.000 --> 01:38:45.000] Okay.
[01:38:45.000 --> 01:38:56.000] And so now, so based on what I told you, should I file a flurry of requests for dismissal for all these
[01:38:56.000 --> 01:39:01.000] other things or should I put that all on one motion or should I?
[01:39:01.000 --> 01:39:07.000] I would recommend you put every issue that's not directly related to another issue in its own
[01:39:07.000 --> 01:39:11.000] separate motion and make the judge rule on them separately.
[01:39:11.000 --> 01:39:12.000] Okay.
[01:39:12.000 --> 01:39:21.000] And on the, and these clients still haven't given me a trial date and this citation was issued back in...
[01:39:21.000 --> 01:39:25.000] Again, failure to prosecute, that's the whole point.
[01:39:25.000 --> 01:39:29.000] Failure to provide you with a speedy trial and failure to prosecute.
[01:39:29.000 --> 01:39:30.000] Okay.
[01:39:30.000 --> 01:39:39.000] And since I already filed the, I originally filed my motion and a request for a speedy trial.
[01:39:39.000 --> 01:39:46.000] I did that back in the, back in, I'd have to check in August or, yeah, at the very end of August last year.
[01:39:46.000 --> 01:39:58.000] And then I did file a request for dismissal due to lack of speedy trial and what am I, at this point,
[01:39:58.000 --> 01:40:05.000] Eddie, I mean, do I just keep hammering the city attorney or do I just keep...
[01:40:05.000 --> 01:40:08.000] Mr. Municipal, what are you going to hammer him for?
[01:40:08.000 --> 01:40:11.000] File your motions in court and serve him with your copies.
[01:40:11.000 --> 01:40:13.000] Okay.
[01:40:13.000 --> 01:40:15.000] All right.
[01:40:15.000 --> 01:40:16.000] You know what I mean?
[01:40:16.000 --> 01:40:19.000] I mean, they just keep, they're not doing anything.
[01:40:19.000 --> 01:40:21.000] That doesn't seem like they're responding.
[01:40:21.000 --> 01:40:23.000] So...
[01:40:23.000 --> 01:40:24.000] Right.
[01:40:24.000 --> 01:40:25.000] They're intentionally dragging their feet.
[01:40:25.000 --> 01:40:29.000] You're entitled as a matter of law in due process to a speedy trial.
[01:40:29.000 --> 01:40:31.000] They're way beyond that.
[01:40:31.000 --> 01:40:33.000] No.
[01:40:33.000 --> 01:40:38.000] Once they file that complaint, speedy trial clock starts running.
[01:40:38.000 --> 01:40:44.000] They have two years to file the complaint, but once it's filed, they better be getting you into court.
[01:40:44.000 --> 01:40:47.000] Right.
[01:40:47.000 --> 01:40:48.000] Okay.
[01:40:48.000 --> 01:40:54.000] And I'm sorry, just one more, just to go back over this, on the clerk that did sign,
[01:40:54.000 --> 01:41:05.000] should I file something now or should I wait until they give me a trial date and then subpoena her to appear?
[01:41:05.000 --> 01:41:12.000] If and when they ever give you a trial date, absolutely, because the subpoena has to tell them when to appear.
[01:41:12.000 --> 01:41:15.000] So you have to know when to tell them to appear.
[01:41:15.000 --> 01:41:17.000] You can't do that without a trial date.
[01:41:17.000 --> 01:41:20.000] Okay.
[01:41:20.000 --> 01:41:22.000] All right.
[01:41:22.000 --> 01:41:26.000] Thank you so much and have a good night.
[01:41:26.000 --> 01:41:27.000] Thank you for calling in.
[01:41:27.000 --> 01:41:29.000] Appreciate it.
[01:41:29.000 --> 01:41:30.000] Bye-bye.
[01:41:30.000 --> 01:41:31.000] Bye-bye.
[01:41:31.000 --> 01:41:32.000] All right.
[01:41:32.000 --> 01:41:34.000] We have Julian in Virginia.
[01:41:34.000 --> 01:41:39.000] Julian, you've got just about two minutes.
[01:41:39.000 --> 01:41:49.000] Hi, I just would like to relay to the Rule of Law Radio audience what happened to me at my final day in court.
[01:41:49.000 --> 01:41:58.000] I had been to court three times already, and on the final day, I just got up there on the stand and questions started coming.
[01:41:58.000 --> 01:42:04.000] I was asking the officer all these questions, and I ended up telling them that I wasn't in commerce,
[01:42:04.000 --> 01:42:09.000] and they took a recess, and when I came back, it was all dismissed.
[01:42:09.000 --> 01:42:14.000] That was improper tags, no insurance, and no registration.
[01:42:14.000 --> 01:42:16.000] It was just done.
[01:42:16.000 --> 01:42:20.000] Yeah, somebody up there has got a clue, don't they?
[01:42:20.000 --> 01:42:30.000] It was interesting because, you know, in Virginia, these traffic infractions get dismissed if they're fixed by court, by the day of court,
[01:42:30.000 --> 01:42:42.000] and the significant thing was this, since I had everything fixed, the significant thing was that only two other people got dismissed without cause,
[01:42:42.000 --> 01:42:54.000] and they were people, two women, who had gone 50 years without a traffic ticket, and me, who told them I wasn't in commerce.
[01:42:54.000 --> 01:42:56.000] Yeah.
[01:42:56.000 --> 01:43:00.000] Well, always do it in writing, too. Now, don't forget to do that.
[01:43:00.000 --> 01:43:05.000] Always make your record by filing that particular set of facts in writing.
[01:43:05.000 --> 01:43:14.000] Do it either by affidavit or through a motion to dismiss, but preserve those facts in the record, just in case.
[01:43:14.000 --> 01:43:18.000] Well, sorry, I don't have as much questions as the last guy.
[01:43:18.000 --> 01:43:23.000] No, that's all right. We're almost out of time, so you timed that action pretty good.
[01:43:23.000 --> 01:43:30.000] But do thank you for calling in, and congratulations. Glad it worked out that way for you.
[01:43:30.000 --> 01:43:32.000] Yeah, all right. Thanks, man.
[01:43:32.000 --> 01:43:34.000] All right. Yes, sir. Thanks for calling in.

[01:46:20.000 --> 01:46:24.000] This is Rule of Law Radio, 512-646-1984.
[01:46:24.000 --> 01:46:26.000] This is our last segment.
[01:46:26.000 --> 01:46:28.000] So, folks, get in line.
[01:46:28.000 --> 01:46:29.000] We've got one person on.
[01:46:29.000 --> 01:46:31.000] Oh, take that back.
[01:46:31.000 --> 01:46:34.000] We suddenly got a big screen update here.
[01:46:34.000 --> 01:46:37.000] All right, we have Ron in California.
[01:46:37.000 --> 01:46:40.000] Ron, are you calling back in again?
[01:46:40.000 --> 01:46:42.000] Oh, Ron disappeared.
[01:46:42.000 --> 01:46:44.000] All right, let's go to Doug.
[01:46:44.000 --> 01:46:46.000] Doug, what can we do for you?
[01:46:46.000 --> 01:46:48.000] Oh, Eddie, this is Doug.
[01:46:48.000 --> 01:46:56.000] Is your cell phone the same number that it was like two or three months ago?
[01:46:56.000 --> 01:46:58.000] As far as I know, it is.
[01:46:58.000 --> 01:46:59.000] All right.
[01:46:59.000 --> 01:47:08.000] I need to call you after the show when you get off and get a little proposition for you.
[01:47:08.000 --> 01:47:11.000] Well, I can't go around drinking your excess out of your car for you
[01:47:11.000 --> 01:47:13.000] when you get stopped for open container now, Doug.
[01:47:13.000 --> 01:47:20.000] No open containers. I've got something that is very important, very important.
[01:47:20.000 --> 01:47:21.000] Okay.
[01:47:21.000 --> 01:47:22.000] All right.
[01:47:22.000 --> 01:47:25.000] Just give me a call after the show, then, and I'll talk to you about whatever it is.
[01:47:25.000 --> 01:47:27.000] All right. Thank you.
[01:47:27.000 --> 01:47:28.000] Okay.
[01:47:28.000 --> 01:47:30.000] You're welcome.
[01:47:30.000 --> 01:47:34.000] Okay, Ron is back again, and now he's gone again.
[01:47:34.000 --> 01:47:37.000] Deborah, what's up with the screen here?
[01:47:37.000 --> 01:47:40.000] People keep calling in and dropping off the board, Eddie.
[01:47:40.000 --> 01:47:41.000] I don't know.
[01:47:41.000 --> 01:47:42.000] Okay.
[01:47:42.000 --> 01:47:44.000] I'm trying to screen calls right now.
[01:47:44.000 --> 01:47:45.000] All right.
[01:47:45.000 --> 01:47:46.000] Well, we've got two unscreened here.
[01:47:46.000 --> 01:47:49.000] I'm going to go ahead and grab one, if that's all right.
[01:47:49.000 --> 01:47:50.000] Okay.
[01:47:50.000 --> 01:47:51.000] Wait.
[01:47:51.000 --> 01:47:53.000] The 210 area code, they're not there anymore.
[01:47:53.000 --> 01:47:57.000] So we'll just have to take this next call unscreened.
[01:47:57.000 --> 01:47:58.000] All right.
[01:47:58.000 --> 01:47:59.000] Here we go.
[01:47:59.000 --> 01:48:00.000] All right.
[01:48:00.000 --> 01:48:03.000] Don't know who this is, but you're on the air.
[01:48:03.000 --> 01:48:06.000] Tell us your first name and what state you're calling from, caller.
[01:48:06.000 --> 01:48:08.000] I was just trying to talk to you all off air.
[01:48:08.000 --> 01:48:09.000] This is Ron.
[01:48:09.000 --> 01:48:10.000] I just called.
[01:48:10.000 --> 01:48:11.000] I was trying to get Rick's number.
[01:48:11.000 --> 01:48:12.000] Can you send Eddie an email?
[01:48:12.000 --> 01:48:14.000] You can't talk to us off the air.
[01:48:14.000 --> 01:48:16.000] You cannot talk to us off the air on this phone number.
[01:48:16.000 --> 01:48:19.000] The number that you just called is the call-in number
[01:48:19.000 --> 01:48:21.000] for people who want to talk live on the air.
[01:48:21.000 --> 01:48:24.000] There's no office phone number for Rule of Law Radio.
[01:48:24.000 --> 01:48:26.000] The email is coming back.
[01:48:26.000 --> 01:48:27.000] There's no reply.
[01:48:27.000 --> 01:48:30.000] Eddie at ruleoflawradio.com?
[01:48:30.000 --> 01:48:31.000] Yeah.
[01:48:31.000 --> 01:48:32.000] I don't know.
[01:48:32.000 --> 01:48:33.000] E-D-D-I-E?
[01:48:33.000 --> 01:48:34.000] Uh-huh.
[01:48:34.000 --> 01:48:38.000] Yeah, at ruleoflawradio.com.
[01:48:38.000 --> 01:48:39.000] No.
[01:48:39.000 --> 01:48:41.000] Ruleoflawradio.com.
[01:48:41.000 --> 01:48:45.000] Go to ruleoflawradio.com and you can click on the contact link.
[01:48:45.000 --> 01:48:46.000] All right.
[01:48:46.000 --> 01:48:47.000] Okay, great.
[01:48:47.000 --> 01:48:48.000] Sorry about that.
[01:48:48.000 --> 01:48:52.000] Okay, that's all right.
[01:48:52.000 --> 01:48:53.000] All right.
[01:48:53.000 --> 01:48:56.000] Got that sorted out.
[01:48:56.000 --> 01:48:58.000] Let's see.
[01:48:58.000 --> 01:49:00.000] Well, that was the only one we had on the board there, Debra,
[01:49:00.000 --> 01:49:05.000] other than Doug who is just listening to us at this point.
[01:49:05.000 --> 01:49:07.000] All right, folks.
[01:49:07.000 --> 01:49:10.000] Since we have a few more minutes to wait here,
[01:49:10.000 --> 01:49:12.000] anything else good going on out there in your lives,
[01:49:12.000 --> 01:49:17.000] please give us a call, 512-646-1984.
[01:49:17.000 --> 01:49:19.000] And while we're waiting on somebody to call in,
[01:49:19.000 --> 01:49:22.000] I'm going to reiterate a little bit of our message from earlier.
[01:49:22.000 --> 01:49:26.000] Right now we're having our Brave New Books seminars on Saturday.
[01:49:26.000 --> 01:49:30.000] We are looking at also either moving it to Sunday from 3 to 6
[01:49:30.000 --> 01:49:34.000] or possibly, if necessary, we have enough people to do it.
[01:49:34.000 --> 01:49:38.000] We may actually wind up doing it both days.
[01:49:38.000 --> 01:49:42.000] So if you need to come down and learn what should be going on
[01:49:42.000 --> 01:49:44.000] in the courts versus what they're doing,
[01:49:44.000 --> 01:49:47.000] come down and take a listen to what we're talking about
[01:49:47.000 --> 01:49:49.000] and learning down there.
[01:49:49.000 --> 01:49:53.000] Okay, we have another caller up on the board.
[01:49:53.000 --> 01:49:54.000] Good evening.
[01:49:54.000 --> 01:49:57.000] Give me your first name and where you're calling from, please.
[01:49:57.000 --> 01:50:00.000] Christina from San Antonio, Texas.
[01:50:00.000 --> 01:50:01.000] Well, hi.
[01:50:01.000 --> 01:50:03.000] What can we do for you?
[01:50:03.000 --> 01:50:11.000] I had sent in an email to you for Google Richard James Benvidis.
[01:50:11.000 --> 01:50:14.000] To Google Richard James what?
[01:50:14.000 --> 01:50:16.000] Well, Richard Benvidis.
[01:50:16.000 --> 01:50:19.000] I had sent an email to you and it was,
[01:50:19.000 --> 01:50:21.000] so you can Google his name for his case.
[01:50:21.000 --> 01:50:26.000] We haven't opened two open cases, both in which he's innocent
[01:50:26.000 --> 01:50:31.000] and we feel our attorney is hiding things from us.
[01:50:31.000 --> 01:50:33.000] We're not telling him the full information
[01:50:33.000 --> 01:50:35.000] in the discovery packet.
[01:50:35.000 --> 01:50:38.000] He's trying to get him to confess to something
[01:50:38.000 --> 01:50:41.000] that he didn't know he was confessing to.
[01:50:41.000 --> 01:50:45.000] We thought he was confessing to one part of the fraud case,
[01:50:45.000 --> 01:50:48.000] which would be trying to pick up medication,
[01:50:48.000 --> 01:50:50.000] which he was doing for a friend,
[01:50:50.000 --> 01:50:53.000] and instead the attorney is saying, no, you,
[01:50:53.000 --> 01:50:56.000] because he has one for arson and one for fraud.
[01:50:56.000 --> 01:51:02.000] And the attorney says, if you plead on the fraud case,
[01:51:02.000 --> 01:51:05.000] then we'll see what we can do about dismissing the arson
[01:51:05.000 --> 01:51:08.000] when he's innocent in both cases.
[01:51:08.000 --> 01:51:15.000] The defendant has signed a torn affidavit to us stating that
[01:51:15.000 --> 01:51:18.000] she did not see him, she was mistaken,
[01:51:18.000 --> 01:51:21.000] and we gave it to our attorney and he had told us that
[01:51:21.000 --> 01:51:24.000] because it was not notarized by someone he's aware of
[01:51:24.000 --> 01:51:27.000] and he knows of, then it's no good.
[01:51:27.000 --> 01:51:32.000] And it happened in December, all of it.
[01:51:32.000 --> 01:51:35.000] He's still waiting to be indicted for the arson.
[01:51:35.000 --> 01:51:38.000] We have witnesses, at least five witnesses,
[01:51:38.000 --> 01:51:40.000] as to where he was,
[01:51:40.000 --> 01:51:43.000] but he was nowhere near the fire when it happened.
[01:51:43.000 --> 01:51:47.000] And we really don't know what's going on.
[01:51:47.000 --> 01:51:49.000] All right, well, here's the thing.
[01:51:49.000 --> 01:51:52.000] As far as the affidavits go, if you have these witnesses,
[01:51:52.000 --> 01:51:56.000] you need to get all of them doing affidavits now.
[01:51:56.000 --> 01:52:01.000] Why is the defense attorney not talking to these witnesses?
[01:52:01.000 --> 01:52:03.000] I have no idea.
[01:52:03.000 --> 01:52:09.000] And my sister is the one that the Austin case is on.
[01:52:09.000 --> 01:52:11.000] My sister's car got caught on fire,
[01:52:11.000 --> 01:52:13.000] and she thought she saw my husband.
[01:52:13.000 --> 01:52:18.000] She later admitted to me that she did not see him.
[01:52:18.000 --> 01:52:24.000] She admitted to you?
[01:52:24.000 --> 01:52:29.000] And so I told her, well, because she called me scared and crying,
[01:52:29.000 --> 01:52:33.000] saying that these district attorneys are saying that
[01:52:33.000 --> 01:52:36.000] they're going to press charges on her
[01:52:36.000 --> 01:52:39.000] for all these things that she admitted to Indy
[01:52:39.000 --> 01:52:43.000] after David trying to convict him.
[01:52:43.000 --> 01:52:46.000] And they're telling her, if you don't speak to your story,
[01:52:46.000 --> 01:52:48.000] we're going to charge you with this.
[01:52:48.000 --> 01:52:54.000] Okay, that's exactly what the district attorney tends to do.
[01:52:54.000 --> 01:52:56.000] They'll use threats to get a conviction.
[01:52:56.000 --> 01:52:59.000] They don't care that the party's innocent.
[01:52:59.000 --> 01:53:03.000] That's not on their scope, so keep that in mind, okay?
[01:53:03.000 --> 01:53:04.000] Okay.
[01:53:04.000 --> 01:53:07.000] Now, as far as the witnesses you're speaking of,
[01:53:07.000 --> 01:53:11.000] the very first thing you need to do is to get a proper affidavit
[01:53:11.000 --> 01:53:15.000] from each witness as to your husband's whereabouts
[01:53:15.000 --> 01:53:18.000] on the date and time in question.
[01:53:18.000 --> 01:53:19.000] Okay.
[01:53:19.000 --> 01:53:20.000] All right?
[01:53:20.000 --> 01:53:23.000] Now, make sure it is a proper affidavit.
[01:53:23.000 --> 01:53:26.000] Make sure that when they sign it,
[01:53:26.000 --> 01:53:31.000] it is done in front of a duly authorized notary public.
[01:53:31.000 --> 01:53:32.000] Okay.
[01:53:32.000 --> 01:53:33.000] All right?
[01:53:33.000 --> 01:53:36.000] Or it is done at the police station
[01:53:36.000 --> 01:53:40.000] in front of a law enforcement officer
[01:53:40.000 --> 01:53:45.000] who will verify the affidavit.
[01:53:45.000 --> 01:53:48.000] That is the very first thing.
[01:53:48.000 --> 01:53:52.000] Now, you need to make sure the affidavit is in proper form.
[01:53:52.000 --> 01:53:55.000] There are certain things an affidavit must have in it,
[01:53:55.000 --> 01:53:59.000] or it's not going to be considered a proper affidavit.
[01:53:59.000 --> 01:54:03.000] So you need to talk to somebody that can point you to an example
[01:54:03.000 --> 01:54:06.000] of a proper affidavit.
[01:54:06.000 --> 01:54:09.000] Okay, I can probably find it on the net.
[01:54:09.000 --> 01:54:10.000] Be careful with that.
[01:54:10.000 --> 01:54:13.000] All the ones on the net are not proper either.
[01:54:13.000 --> 01:54:14.000] Okay.
[01:54:14.000 --> 01:54:15.000] All right?
[01:54:15.000 --> 01:54:17.000] If you have access to a university law library,
[01:54:17.000 --> 01:54:19.000] which I do believe you do in San Antonio,
[01:54:19.000 --> 01:54:22.000] I was stationed there for quite a while at Lackland.
[01:54:22.000 --> 01:54:25.000] So you should have access to one.
[01:54:25.000 --> 01:54:26.000] Okay.
[01:54:26.000 --> 01:54:28.000] Yeah, there should be one of those facts.
[01:54:28.000 --> 01:54:29.000] Right.
[01:54:29.000 --> 01:54:32.000] Go down there and ask the librarian to show you an example
[01:54:32.000 --> 01:54:37.000] of an affidavit that the law allows to exist.
[01:54:37.000 --> 01:54:38.000] Okay?
[01:54:38.000 --> 01:54:39.000] That's proper.
[01:54:39.000 --> 01:54:45.000] In general, a proper affidavit is when somebody is stating facts
[01:54:45.000 --> 01:54:49.000] that they have personal firsthand knowledge of,
[01:54:49.000 --> 01:54:54.000] something they themselves witnessed or read or saw or experienced.
[01:54:54.000 --> 01:55:00.000] And if it has to do with, you know, legal documents, you know,
[01:55:00.000 --> 01:55:04.000] knowledge of a contract or a rental agreement or something like that,
[01:55:04.000 --> 01:55:08.000] then generally you would provide a copy of that contract
[01:55:08.000 --> 01:55:11.000] or rental agreement in support of the affidavit.
[01:55:11.000 --> 01:55:14.000] But it also must contain certain statements
[01:55:14.000 --> 01:55:17.000] such as the name of the individual making it,
[01:55:17.000 --> 01:55:21.000] that they are of proper legal age to make it,
[01:55:21.000 --> 01:55:25.000] that they are of sound mind and fully capable of making it,
[01:55:25.000 --> 01:55:30.000] and that the affidavit is made under penalty of perjury.
[01:55:30.000 --> 01:55:32.000] Yeah, and it has to be notarized too.
[01:55:32.000 --> 01:55:38.000] So if those elements don't exist, it's not a proper affidavit.
[01:55:38.000 --> 01:55:40.000] Okay.
[01:55:40.000 --> 01:55:43.000] Okay, and as for the fraud, what?
[01:55:43.000 --> 01:55:46.000] I don't understand why our attorney wouldn't,
[01:55:46.000 --> 01:55:52.000] and he did not tell us that he was getting charged with,
[01:55:52.000 --> 01:55:55.000] I don't know how the prescription was even brought in
[01:55:55.000 --> 01:55:58.000] or I don't know how it came about,
[01:55:58.000 --> 01:56:02.000] but they're charging him with the whole process of doing it
[01:56:02.000 --> 01:56:07.000] when all he did was go to pick it up for the friend,
[01:56:07.000 --> 01:56:09.000] which is my sister, again.
[01:56:09.000 --> 01:56:10.000] Okay.
[01:56:10.000 --> 01:56:14.000] Well, again, what you need to do is get control of your attorney.
[01:56:14.000 --> 01:56:17.000] The first thing you're going to do is bar grieving, okay?
[01:56:17.000 --> 01:56:18.000] Okay.
[01:56:18.000 --> 01:56:21.000] Misconduct, okay?
[01:56:21.000 --> 01:56:22.000] Okay.
[01:56:22.000 --> 01:56:24.000] You're going to bar grieving
[01:56:24.000 --> 01:56:29.000] for not protecting your husband's due process rights
[01:56:29.000 --> 01:56:33.000] and for every single right he's got that he hasn't protected,
[01:56:33.000 --> 01:56:35.000] bar grieving.
[01:56:35.000 --> 01:56:36.000] Okay.
[01:56:36.000 --> 01:56:39.000] And let him know this is not going to fly.
[01:56:39.000 --> 01:56:42.000] You're trying to help them railroad him
[01:56:42.000 --> 01:56:44.000] by getting him to sign a confession
[01:56:44.000 --> 01:56:47.000] by lying to him about what he's signing.
[01:56:47.000 --> 01:56:48.000] Yeah.
[01:56:48.000 --> 01:56:49.000] That's misconduct.
[01:56:49.000 --> 01:56:51.000] That's pretty typical, Christina.
[01:56:51.000 --> 01:56:53.000] That is extremely typical.
[01:56:53.000 --> 01:56:58.000] Most defense attorneys, including defense attorneys that are hired,
[01:56:58.000 --> 01:57:01.000] they're not going to look out for the client's interest.
[01:57:01.000 --> 01:57:05.000] All they want to do is work with the prosecutor to strike a plea deal
[01:57:05.000 --> 01:57:07.000] so they can do the least amount of work.
[01:57:07.000 --> 01:57:11.000] That's typical, extremely typical.
[01:57:11.000 --> 01:57:12.000] That's exactly what he's doing.
[01:57:12.000 --> 01:57:16.000] I spoke to him today and I said, you know, I'm the one that chose you,
[01:57:16.000 --> 01:57:19.000] and it feels like you're not even trying to prove my husband's innocence.
[01:57:19.000 --> 01:57:20.000] No.
[01:57:20.000 --> 01:57:23.000] Or waiting for a DA and extension expenses.
[01:57:23.000 --> 01:57:24.000] Absolutely.
[01:57:24.000 --> 01:57:27.000] No, he's not going to try to prove your husband's innocence.
[01:57:27.000 --> 01:57:29.000] He's not going to fight for your husband's rights.
[01:57:29.000 --> 01:57:31.000] That's not what he's there for.
[01:57:31.000 --> 01:57:33.000] That is not their MO.
[01:57:33.000 --> 01:57:36.000] If you want them to do that, you have to force them to do that
[01:57:36.000 --> 01:57:40.000] with threats of malpractice lawsuits and filing bar grievances.
[01:57:40.000 --> 01:57:41.000] Okay.
[01:57:41.000 --> 01:57:43.000] Would I be able to do that if my husband asked you?
[01:57:43.000 --> 01:57:44.000] No.
[01:57:44.000 --> 01:57:46.000] Anyone that knows he's done this can do it.
[01:57:46.000 --> 01:57:50.000] You and your husband can both bargrieve him independently.
[01:57:50.000 --> 01:57:54.000] Both of you can sue him for malpractice independently.
[01:57:54.000 --> 01:57:55.000] Okay.
[01:57:55.000 --> 01:58:01.000] When I asked him today, he said, well, I really don't care what you think about it
[01:58:01.000 --> 01:58:02.000] or what you want.
[01:58:02.000 --> 01:58:05.000] I only have to answer to Richard.
[01:58:05.000 --> 01:58:08.000] Yeah, well, he's going to care when you file a bar grievance on his butt
[01:58:08.000 --> 01:58:11.000] and he loses his malpractice insurance over it.
[01:58:11.000 --> 01:58:15.000] Yeah, now that I know that I can, because I thought I had no...
[01:58:15.000 --> 01:58:18.000] No, you can file a bar grievance against him.
[01:58:18.000 --> 01:58:22.000] Anybody can file a bar grievance against any attorney for almost any reason
[01:58:22.000 --> 01:58:24.000] as long as the reason is somewhat legitimate.
[01:58:24.000 --> 01:58:28.000] If you have personal knowledge that he is acting inappropriately,
[01:58:28.000 --> 01:58:30.000] then you can file a bar grievance.
[01:58:30.000 --> 01:58:33.000] But they're not going to tell you that because that's their weakness.
[01:58:33.000 --> 01:58:34.000] Yeah.
[01:58:34.000 --> 01:58:40.000] That causes their malpractice insurance carriers to want to drop them
[01:58:40.000 --> 01:58:41.000] and raise their rates.
[01:58:41.000 --> 01:58:42.000] All right, listen...
[01:58:42.000 --> 01:58:45.000] It's like the vampire telling you about holy water daylight
[01:58:45.000 --> 01:58:47.000] and what size and shape to make your wooden stake.
[01:58:47.000 --> 01:58:48.000] Exactly.
[01:58:48.000 --> 01:58:50.000] All right, listen, Christina, we're at the end of the show.
[01:58:50.000 --> 01:58:51.000] We've got to let you go.
[01:58:51.000 --> 01:58:53.000] We'll be back on Thursday night.
[01:58:53.000 --> 01:58:56.000] And folks, don't forget, Harmon Taylor on Friday night.
[01:58:56.000 --> 01:58:58.000] Have a very blessed week.
[01:58:58.000 --> 01:59:13.000] I'm like a stepping razor, don't you watch my sides, I'm dangerous, dangerous.
[01:59:13.000 --> 01:59:20.000] If you are a Chucky, somebody Chucky from me.
[01:59:20.000 --> 01:59:28.000] If you are a Chucky, somebody Chucky from me.
[01:59:28.000 --> 01:59:35.000] I'm like a stepping razor, don't you watch my sides, I'm dangerous, dangerous.
[01:59:35.000 --> 01:59:42.000] I'm like a stepping razor, don't you watch my sides, I'm dangerous, dangerous.
[01:59:42.000 --> 01:59:50.000] If you eat, I fall, if you treat me good.
[01:59:50.000 --> 02:00:13.000] If you eat, I fall, if you treat me good.
