[00:00.000 --> 00:09.840]  U.S. Special Forces have begun venturing out with Pakistani troops on Pakistani territory
[00:09.840 --> 00:13.080]  that up to now has been off limits to U.S. ground troops.
[00:13.080 --> 00:19.120]  The expansion of U.S. cooperation is significant given Pakistan's deep aversion to foreign
[00:19.120 --> 00:22.680]  military forces on its soil.
[00:22.680 --> 00:27.080]  Deputy U.K. Prime Minister Nick Clegg was forced to backtrack after pronouncing the
[00:27.080 --> 00:30.480]  invasion of Iraq illegal in the House of Commons.
[00:30.480 --> 00:35.480]  Clegg insisted he was speaking in a personal capacity after a leading international lawyer
[00:35.480 --> 00:40.000]  warned a statement by a government minister in such a formal setting could increase the
[00:40.000 --> 00:45.640]  chances of charges against Britain in international courts.
[00:45.640 --> 00:50.280]  The Obama administration announced Wednesday a new round of sanctions against North Korea
[00:50.280 --> 00:53.680]  to punish, quote, its illicit and provocative policies.
[00:53.680 --> 00:59.680]  Analysts say the bans are nothing new and for the benefit of South Korea.
[00:59.680 --> 01:04.740]  The International Court of Justice said Thursday Kosovo's unilateral declaration of independence
[01:04.740 --> 01:10.040]  from Serbia in February 2008 did not violate international law.
[01:10.040 --> 01:14.920]  The groundbreaking ruling could have far-reaching implications for separatist movements around
[01:14.920 --> 01:19.120]  the world as well as for Belgrade's stalled EU membership talks.
[01:19.120 --> 01:23.800]  The long-awaited ruling which the court took up after a complaint to the UN from Serbia
[01:23.800 --> 01:30.400]  is now likely to lead to more countries recognizing Kosovo and move Pristina closer to entry into
[01:30.400 --> 01:31.400]  the UN.
[01:31.400 --> 01:37.280]  The court's president, Hisashi Awada, said international law contains, quote, no prohibition
[01:37.280 --> 01:40.120]  on declarations of independence.
[01:40.120 --> 01:45.480]  Serbia has continued to demand Kosovo be returned, arguing it has been the cradle of their civilization
[01:45.480 --> 01:52.000]  and national identity since 1389 when a Christian army led by Serbian Prince Lazare lost an
[01:52.000 --> 01:55.480]  epic battle to invading Ottoman forces.
[01:55.480 --> 02:00.320]  The ruling is expected to bolster demands for independence by half a dozen other territories
[02:00.320 --> 02:03.560]  around the world.
[02:03.560 --> 02:07.880]  The nominee for director of national intelligence has warned North Korea's thinking of a South
[02:07.880 --> 02:09.360]  Korean warship.
[02:09.360 --> 02:12.280]  May Herald, quote, a dangerous new period.
[02:12.280 --> 02:17.800]  James Clapper told a Senate hearing Tuesday Pyongyang might seek to advance its internal
[02:17.800 --> 02:21.160]  and external political goals through direct attacks.
[02:21.160 --> 02:26.560]  Earlier, the US and South Korea said they would hold large-scale joint military exercises
[02:26.560 --> 02:32.600]  next weekend in a show of force intended to send a clear message to North Korea that its
[02:32.600 --> 02:34.920]  aggressive behavior must stop.
[02:34.920 --> 02:39.840]  Testifying to the Senate's Intelligence Committee, Clapper brushed aside suggestions he would
[02:39.840 --> 02:44.920]  be beholden to the Pentagon and reluctant to share information about intelligence activities
[02:44.920 --> 02:50.040]  with Congress, saying he had been out of uniform for 15 years.
[02:50.040 --> 03:10.400]  The DNI was created by Congress in 2004 in response to 9-11.
[03:20.040 --> 03:48.400]  The DNI was created by Congress in 2004 in response to 9-11.
[03:48.400 --> 04:16.760]  The DNI was created by Congress in 2004 in response to 9-11.
[04:16.760 --> 04:45.120]  The DNI was created by Congress in 2004 in response to 9-11.
[04:45.120 --> 05:03.720]  All right, folks, tonight is Friday, July 30th.
[05:03.720 --> 05:11.640]  This is the rule of law, Randy Kelton and Eddie Craig and Deborah Stevens.
[05:11.640 --> 05:20.280]  And folks, I just want to give a big shout out to the One Love Kitchen at 3109 East Caesar
[05:20.280 --> 05:21.280]  Chavez.
[05:21.280 --> 05:24.240]  Folks, Jared just brought me home some jerk chicken.
[05:24.240 --> 05:26.580]  I'll tell you, those people can cook.
[05:26.580 --> 05:27.580]  My friends can cook.
[05:27.580 --> 05:29.680]  Get this, five bucks.
[05:29.680 --> 05:36.280]  You get a salad, you get rice and peas, and jerk chicken, excellent spiced chicken.
[05:36.280 --> 05:41.360]  And the reason it's called jerk chicken, this is a dish from the islands, it's because of
[05:41.360 --> 05:42.880]  the way they cook it.
[05:42.880 --> 05:46.200]  They turn the chicken over and over on the grill constantly.
[05:46.200 --> 05:49.540]  And so because it looks kind of like a jerking motion, because they're constantly turning
[05:49.540 --> 05:54.280]  it over and over on the grill, it's just the most wonderful stuff that just melts in your
[05:54.280 --> 05:55.280]  mouth.
[05:55.280 --> 05:58.640]  The chicken is so moist and tender, it just falls apart.
[05:58.640 --> 06:01.720]  Seasoning is fantastic, five bucks, folks.
[06:01.720 --> 06:03.080]  You can't beat it.
[06:03.080 --> 06:09.520]  Go to the One Love Kitchen, 3109 East Caesar Chavez.
[06:09.520 --> 06:12.480]  We're still trying to get Randy on the line.
[06:12.480 --> 06:16.320]  He's having internet troubles again, and he's trying to call in.
[06:16.320 --> 06:21.320]  I just tried to bring his channel live, and he wasn't there, so he may be having phone
[06:21.320 --> 06:22.640]  trouble as well.
[06:22.640 --> 06:27.800]  We're going to be trying to get Randy Kelton up as soon as possible.
[06:27.800 --> 06:35.920]  So in the meantime, folks, if you'd like to call in, 512-646-1984.
[06:35.920 --> 06:38.400]  So Eddie, what have you got going on tonight?
[06:38.400 --> 06:43.120]  Well, I tried to see if we can get Randy on the phone.
[06:43.120 --> 06:47.440]  Is Eddie there?
[06:47.440 --> 06:49.960]  Yeah, I'm here.
[06:49.960 --> 06:52.800]  I have been working today on some more of the traffic motions.
[06:52.800 --> 06:59.800]  I am also working on the document for the actual brief on the merits when we actually
[06:59.800 --> 07:03.080]  have to go in to the trial.
[07:03.080 --> 07:08.920]  And the brief on the merits is also acting as a counter complaint.
[07:08.920 --> 07:12.260]  Basically we're challenging everything about the enforcement.
[07:12.260 --> 07:15.720]  We're challenging everything about the application.
[07:15.720 --> 07:21.760]  We're challenging everything about the unconstitutionality of the statutes themselves that allow them
[07:21.760 --> 07:28.800]  to perform a warrantless arrest for a misdemeanor offense that is not a breach of the peace
[07:28.800 --> 07:32.360]  in violation of the Texas Constitution.
[07:32.360 --> 07:36.880]  And the common law on which it's based.
[07:36.880 --> 07:42.000]  It's going to be a pretty extensive brief and it's going to be a pretty extensive lawsuit
[07:42.000 --> 07:44.480]  to go after these guys with.
[07:44.480 --> 07:50.640]  So that's what I've been spending my day on, that and going back over another issue that
[07:50.640 --> 07:57.120]  was given to me from the show last night where the judge dismissed the argument about the
[07:57.120 --> 08:00.640]  city attorney acting as prosecutor for the state.
[08:00.640 --> 08:05.600]  I've gone back through the motion on that today just to make sure all the arguments
[08:05.600 --> 08:08.600]  are checking out the way they should.
[08:08.600 --> 08:12.080]  These guys are in a lot of trouble.
[08:12.080 --> 08:16.880]  If somebody out there is willing to pursue it, they're in a lot of trouble.
[08:16.880 --> 08:22.280]  Did you manage to get him up Deborah?
[08:22.280 --> 08:23.440]  No, not yet.
[08:23.440 --> 08:24.880]  He's not coming up.
[08:24.880 --> 08:27.280]  But we do have Ray in Texas.
[08:27.280 --> 08:28.280]  Ray.
[08:28.280 --> 08:30.360]  Well let's talk to Ray.
[08:30.360 --> 08:31.360]  Yes.
[08:31.360 --> 08:32.360]  Thanks for calling in Ray.
[08:32.360 --> 08:33.360]  What's on your mind tonight?
[08:33.360 --> 08:35.920]  Hey Eddie, I've got a quick question for you.
[08:35.920 --> 08:42.520]  I was driving up north on I-35 the other day and lo and behold there was some lights behind
[08:42.520 --> 08:43.520]  me.
[08:43.520 --> 08:44.520]  I was like, okay, what's this all about?
[08:44.520 --> 08:49.280]  I wasn't speeding or anything like that and the cops wore up and down that I did not use
[08:49.280 --> 08:54.600]  my blinker when changing lanes and I'm like, but I don't believe you because it's a habit
[08:54.600 --> 08:55.600]  with me.
[08:55.600 --> 08:58.560]  I will use my blinker no matter what I do.
[08:58.560 --> 09:09.640]  So on the ticket I put without prejudice, under duress, use the C1-207.
[09:09.640 --> 09:10.640]  It's 308 now by the way.
[09:10.640 --> 09:16.440]  I wonder if there's anything else I can do because I think this cop was lying and he
[09:16.440 --> 09:17.440]  even-
[09:17.440 --> 09:21.560]  Well in actuality it doesn't matter whether or not he's lying, okay?
[09:21.560 --> 09:24.160]  That statute doesn't apply to a private automobile.
[09:24.160 --> 09:26.360]  You were in a private automobile, right?
[09:26.360 --> 09:27.720]  Yes sir.
[09:27.720 --> 09:28.720]  Okay.
[09:28.720 --> 09:30.640]  Did he actually issue you a ticket?
[09:30.640 --> 09:32.640]  Yes he did.
[09:32.640 --> 09:33.640]  Okay.
[09:33.640 --> 09:36.240]  So what do you want to do about it?
[09:36.240 --> 09:42.600]  Well I don't think it was right and he even admitted to me that they were specifically
[09:42.600 --> 09:49.520]  out there looking for traffic infractions, you know, he didn't say they could collect
[09:49.520 --> 09:51.880]  revenue but it was pretty obvious.
[09:51.880 --> 09:52.880]  Yeah.
[09:52.880 --> 09:56.360]  Well that's exactly what they're out there for but again I'll ask my question.
[09:56.360 --> 09:57.960]  What do you want to do about it?
[09:57.960 --> 10:04.760]  Well is there any way I can take care of it without having to pay it?
[10:04.760 --> 10:09.920]  I really, I mean I feel like I want to go into court and fight this thing.
[10:09.920 --> 10:12.120]  But what can happen to me once I get into court?
[10:12.120 --> 10:16.040]  The question remains though, how far do you want to fight it?
[10:16.040 --> 10:17.040]  Here's the situation.
[10:17.040 --> 10:20.160]  For all of you that have ever gone to traffic court, you're going to know exactly what I'm
[10:20.160 --> 10:21.160]  talking about.
[10:21.160 --> 10:27.920]  For those of you that haven't, this is going to be a first time appearance for you through
[10:27.920 --> 10:29.480]  the eyes of someone else.
[10:29.480 --> 10:32.320]  So listen carefully.
[10:32.320 --> 10:33.320]  Where did he send you?
[10:33.320 --> 10:34.320]  Where did he send me?
[10:34.320 --> 10:37.320]  You mean on the ticket?
[10:37.320 --> 10:38.320]  Yes.
[10:38.320 --> 10:40.920]  It's Charles County.
[10:40.920 --> 10:44.520]  Was it a county cop, state trooper or municipal cop?
[10:44.520 --> 10:45.520]  Municipal I guess.
[10:45.520 --> 10:50.040]  It was a black and white vehicle but it was like a city cop I think.
[10:50.040 --> 10:51.040]  Okay.
[10:51.040 --> 10:52.800]  Did he send you to the municipal court?
[10:52.800 --> 10:54.840]  I believe so, yes.
[10:54.840 --> 10:55.840]  Okay.
[10:55.840 --> 10:59.840]  Well the first thing is, does this officer have authority to enforce the Texas traffic
[10:59.840 --> 11:01.080]  code?
[11:01.080 --> 11:03.040]  That's going to be question number one.
[11:03.040 --> 11:04.840]  What's the proof of his authority?
[11:04.840 --> 11:05.840]  Where did he get it?
[11:05.840 --> 11:07.160]  Who gave it to him?
[11:07.160 --> 11:09.120]  How did they get it?
[11:09.120 --> 11:13.520]  Because according to the administrative code in Texas, there isn't but one way for the
[11:13.520 --> 11:18.920]  local Yokels to get the authority to enforce.
[11:18.920 --> 11:23.920]  And they must be certified by the Department of Public Safety before they can do that.
[11:23.920 --> 11:27.760]  If they're not certified, then they're acting illegally and without authority.
[11:27.760 --> 11:31.080]  But in the case of this...
[11:31.080 --> 11:32.080]  I'm sorry?
[11:32.080 --> 11:37.400]  You said they got to be certified by health and safety?
[11:37.400 --> 11:38.400]  Department of Public Safety.
[11:38.400 --> 11:41.400]  Department of Public Safety, okay.
[11:41.400 --> 11:42.400]  Yes.
[11:42.400 --> 11:48.320]  Now, the problem they have is of course they're not going to have the certifications.
[11:48.320 --> 11:53.000]  The next thing is if they send you to municipal court, then of course they're going to try
[11:53.000 --> 11:58.760]  to have the municipal attorney, the city attorney prosecute the case.
[11:58.760 --> 12:03.120]  Well they have a severe problem with that under the Texas Constitution and the laws
[12:03.120 --> 12:05.200]  as well.
[12:05.200 --> 12:12.440]  So when I ask you what do you want to do about it, you're going to have to either get them
[12:12.440 --> 12:20.800]  to dismiss it up front, which you need the right motions to do that, and the likelihood
[12:20.800 --> 12:28.280]  of that happening on written motion is slim to none, okay?
[12:28.280 --> 12:34.160]  But what's going to happen here is the municipal judge is going to deny all of your motions
[12:34.160 --> 12:35.160]  out of hand.
[12:35.160 --> 12:42.280]  And he's going to deny them despite the fact that the opposition files no motion in rebuttal.
[12:42.280 --> 12:48.520]  The judge is going to do the prosecutor's work for them and in fact act to prosecute
[12:48.520 --> 12:55.800]  you on their own accord, not that of the prosecutor in the form of the city attorney.
[12:55.800 --> 13:03.920]  This takes away all appearance of impartiality and fairness, which they cannot do, okay?
[13:03.920 --> 13:07.080]  So you've got grounds for a lot of things here.
[13:07.080 --> 13:10.240]  But basically the judge is going to deny everything.
[13:10.240 --> 13:11.600]  That's okay.
[13:11.600 --> 13:14.320]  At this level, you're going to lose if you go to court.
[13:14.320 --> 13:19.320]  It's an absolute guaranteed slam dunk if you have not got them to dismiss it before you
[13:19.320 --> 13:24.200]  get there and you do not know how to argue the points.
[13:24.200 --> 13:30.120]  Let's just say I do go to court and I do this, okay, if the judge denied it, do I go to jail?
[13:30.120 --> 13:31.440]  What happens after that?
[13:31.440 --> 13:32.440]  No.
[13:32.440 --> 13:33.760]  This is a non-jailable offense.
[13:33.760 --> 13:37.720]  The only way the judge can throw you in jail is if they find out you've got a warrant for
[13:37.720 --> 13:45.360]  something else or if he throws you in jail for contempt, which he cannot do unless you
[13:45.360 --> 13:49.520]  start calling him vulgar names and tearing apart the courtroom.
[13:49.520 --> 13:52.160]  He'll threaten you with it, ain't no doubt about it.
[13:52.160 --> 13:58.400]  He's going to threaten you with it, but in reality, if he does it, he's got a real tort
[13:58.400 --> 14:04.900]  action against him for doing so, okay?
[14:04.900 --> 14:09.040]  But you're going to have to go in and fight it, almost certainly you're going to have
[14:09.040 --> 14:12.040]  to go in and fight it.
[14:12.040 --> 14:15.400]  I've told everybody, there is no silver bullet.
[14:15.400 --> 14:20.920]  There is no magic paper to file and watch it all disappear.
[14:20.920 --> 14:29.000]  It all depends upon entirely how willing the judge, the prosecution, and the cop are to
[14:29.000 --> 14:31.280]  follow the law.
[14:31.280 --> 14:35.560]  And when it comes to that money screen, that's a rare thing to see.
[14:35.560 --> 14:38.160]  Eddie, let me ask you a question.
[14:38.160 --> 14:43.200]  Are not their cameras supposed to be on in their cars all the time when they're on patrol?
[14:43.200 --> 14:44.280]  No.
[14:44.280 --> 14:47.800]  The camera only comes on when the lights come on.
[14:47.800 --> 14:48.800]  Okay.
[14:48.800 --> 14:56.360]  When the light comes on, isn't that they actually, it has to be like an emergency or something
[14:56.360 --> 14:58.080]  like that for the lights to come on?
[14:58.080 --> 15:03.120]  If they turn their lights on, isn't that like illegal on their part?
[15:03.120 --> 15:06.880]  They're declaring a state of emergency where none exists, which is the reason for the three
[15:06.880 --> 15:10.480]  questions I tell everyone to ask when they get pulled over.
[15:10.480 --> 15:12.520]  Did you remember what they were or do you know?
[15:12.520 --> 15:16.280]  I'm sorry, say that again.
[15:16.280 --> 15:20.640]  I said, do you know what the three questions to ask are when you get pulled over?
[15:20.640 --> 15:22.640]  What did I do?
[15:22.640 --> 15:24.960]  No.
[15:24.960 --> 15:32.360]  The three questions you ask, the first one, what is the emergency and how can I help?
[15:32.360 --> 15:35.320]  Why do you ask that question?
[15:35.320 --> 15:38.800]  Because the lights on.
[15:38.800 --> 15:39.800]  Right.
[15:39.800 --> 15:41.540]  He declared a state of emergency.
[15:41.540 --> 15:43.200]  You weren't doing anything wrong.
[15:43.200 --> 15:46.880]  So your presumption is he was asking for help.
[15:46.880 --> 15:51.060]  And since he flagged you over, he's asking for help from you, right?
[15:51.060 --> 15:54.640]  So what is the emergency and how can I help?
[15:54.640 --> 15:57.600]  Let me explain what the situation was, Eddie.
[15:57.600 --> 16:03.840]  I was boxed in and I had to get over really quick otherwise I would have hit some vehicles.
[16:03.840 --> 16:07.520]  So there was really no time for me to put a blinker on, but I did put my blinker on,
[16:07.520 --> 16:09.920]  I'm sure of it.
[16:09.920 --> 16:18.680]  Okay, again, you're going to the merits of the argument, not the facts at hand, okay?
[16:18.680 --> 16:22.520]  Whether or not you turned your blinker on is irrelevant.
[16:22.520 --> 16:24.420]  It's absolutely irrelevant.
[16:24.420 --> 16:30.260]  If you were in a private automobile, it's got, that statute has nothing to do with you.
[16:30.260 --> 16:36.080]  What you do on the road, you should do for safety, yes, but the statute does not apply
[16:36.080 --> 16:37.080]  to you.
[16:37.080 --> 16:40.520]  Is that because I was traveling and not driving?
[16:40.520 --> 16:44.080]  You were in your private automobile in a non-commercial capacity.
[16:44.080 --> 16:45.080]  That is correct.
[16:45.080 --> 16:46.560]  Okay, I hear the music.
[16:46.560 --> 16:49.920]  We're about to go to break, so if you'll hang on to the other side, we'll continue with
[16:49.920 --> 16:53.480]  this and I'll try to wrap it up with you on explaining what the rest of the remaining
[16:53.480 --> 16:56.400]  questions are and what you need to be doing, okay?
[16:56.400 --> 17:03.080]  All right, folks, this is Rule of Law Radio, hang on.

[17:54.880 --> 18:20.360]  Coin and Bullion, 512-646-6440.

[18:48.160 --> 19:07.600]  to 5 p.m.
[19:07.600 --> 19:15.480]  from the man that came all the way from Galilee, I'm working for the safe and warm place to
[19:15.480 --> 19:18.480]  be, where I don't have to work so hard to be.
[19:18.480 --> 19:20.480]  Okay folks, we are back.
[19:20.480 --> 19:21.480]  Sorry, Eddie.
[19:21.480 --> 19:22.480]  No, that's okay.
[19:22.480 --> 19:23.480]  That's all right.
[19:23.480 --> 19:24.480]  We are back.
[19:24.480 --> 19:25.480]  Go ahead, Eddie.
[19:25.480 --> 19:27.560]  So, okay, now let's finish this up here.
[19:27.560 --> 19:32.400]  The three questions are, what is the emergency and how can I help?
[19:32.400 --> 19:34.760]  Am I under arrest?
[19:34.760 --> 19:36.760]  Am I free to go?
[19:36.760 --> 19:40.800]  There's a very specific reason you ask those three questions.
[19:40.800 --> 19:46.440]  And then after you ask those three questions, there are three things you do immediately.
[19:46.440 --> 19:48.640]  First one is, shut up.
[19:48.640 --> 19:50.760]  Second one is, shut up some more.
[19:50.760 --> 19:55.520]  And the third one is, keep on shutting up, okay?
[19:55.520 --> 19:59.600]  Do not engage this gentleman or lady in conversation.
[19:59.600 --> 20:04.260]  The moment you do that, you're going to start running off at the mouth and saying things
[20:04.260 --> 20:07.360]  you ought not to be saying that's going to be used against you later.
[20:07.360 --> 20:11.920]  All right, I asked him for his bond number.
[20:11.920 --> 20:13.800]  He doesn't know what his bond number is.
[20:13.800 --> 20:17.320]  As far as he knows, bond is the only thing that's holding his teeth to the top of his
[20:17.320 --> 20:18.320]  mouth.
[20:18.320 --> 20:23.320]  Yeah, he acts really stupid, like he didn't know what I was talking about at all.
[20:23.320 --> 20:24.600]  He doesn't.
[20:24.600 --> 20:28.200]  He doesn't know what you're talking about, okay?
[20:28.200 --> 20:29.200]  He is clueless.
[20:29.200 --> 20:31.560]  The municipality took care of all that for him.
[20:31.560 --> 20:33.540]  He is spoon fed.
[20:33.540 --> 20:36.400]  He does not know.
[20:36.400 --> 20:43.160]  And if he does know, he's certainly not going to tell you, all right?
[20:43.160 --> 20:48.720]  Now in order for this to do you any good at all to fight, you're going to have to be willing
[20:48.720 --> 20:50.200]  to go all the way.
[20:50.200 --> 20:53.280]  Otherwise, all you're going to be doing is wasting your time.
[20:53.280 --> 20:54.280]  Okay.
[20:54.280 --> 21:01.280]  By all the way, am I at all going to do jail time or anything like that?
[21:01.280 --> 21:02.280]  No.
[21:02.280 --> 21:05.920]  No, but you're going to certainly try to get the cop put in jail.
[21:05.920 --> 21:06.920]  Okay.
[21:06.920 --> 21:07.920]  Okay.
[21:07.920 --> 21:10.320]  Now, I have one other question for you.
[21:10.320 --> 21:11.320]  Okay.
[21:11.320 --> 21:12.320]  You there?
[21:12.320 --> 21:13.320]  Yeah, I'm here.
[21:13.320 --> 21:14.320]  Okay.
[21:14.320 --> 21:23.240]  Since I did the without prejudice, under duress, on the ticket, UCC 1-207, if I start explaining
[21:23.240 --> 21:28.520]  to the court about how they're under administrative law...
[21:28.520 --> 21:32.200]  You're never going to get that out of your mouth.
[21:32.200 --> 21:34.280]  I won't get it out of my mouth?
[21:34.280 --> 21:35.840]  No, you will not.
[21:35.840 --> 21:36.840]  You'll stand there.
[21:36.840 --> 21:37.840]  You'll say all this.
[21:37.840 --> 21:42.480]  The judge is going to roll their eyes and get the entire courtroom laughing at you.
[21:42.480 --> 21:46.280]  That's not going to help you at all.
[21:46.280 --> 21:49.040]  Okay.
[21:49.040 --> 21:53.920]  What you do is you file everything in writing that you're going to file.
[21:53.920 --> 21:58.680]  Do not stand there and try to argue from your mouth.
[21:58.680 --> 22:01.400]  These things you file, you file in writing.
[22:01.400 --> 22:06.480]  When the judge tries to get you to present oral argument on your motions, you simply
[22:06.480 --> 22:10.560]  respond, I stand upon my motions as written.
[22:10.560 --> 22:13.160]  Why do you do this?
[22:13.160 --> 22:19.720]  Because you'll actually get them through with the stuff that you...
[22:19.720 --> 22:20.920]  There's two reasons.
[22:20.920 --> 22:26.280]  One is you're building a record because you will most likely not be in a court of record.
[22:26.280 --> 22:30.520]  Though in Travis County, I think the Austin Municipal Court is a court of record, but
[22:30.520 --> 22:32.680]  you want everything on the record.
[22:32.680 --> 22:35.120]  Therefore, you do it in writing.
[22:35.120 --> 22:41.120]  The second thing is the moment you start presenting oral argument, your written motions get thrown
[22:41.120 --> 22:43.960]  in the trash.
[22:43.960 --> 22:48.800]  Anything you do not address in oral argument will not be on the record.
[22:48.800 --> 22:51.120]  You understand that?
[22:51.120 --> 22:54.960]  You could have the best crafted motion in the world that addresses every issue.
[22:54.960 --> 23:06.560]  If the judge can get you arguing about one out of 10, the other nine disappear.
[23:06.560 --> 23:08.560]  Do not do it.
[23:08.560 --> 23:15.560]  Eddie, is there any way that I could get you to help me on this?
[23:15.560 --> 23:18.440]  Yeah, there's a way to get me to help you on it.
[23:18.440 --> 23:19.440]  It's called money.
[23:19.440 --> 23:24.840]  But you got to have the traffic seminar because that's where all the motions are.
[23:24.840 --> 23:30.440]  We've got 18 motions in the traffic seminar right now to file in these cases, all of which
[23:30.440 --> 23:41.240]  are based strictly upon law, no patriot BS, no accepted for value, no contract.
[23:41.240 --> 23:44.080]  This deals with the law.
[23:44.080 --> 23:45.080]  It's what binds them.
[23:45.080 --> 23:46.080]  Right.
[23:46.080 --> 23:47.080]  Give me a 100% guarantee.
[23:47.080 --> 23:48.080]  I mean, I'll hire you.
[23:48.080 --> 23:51.440]  I can't get... Nobody can give you a 100% guarantee.
[23:51.440 --> 23:55.720]  Anybody that tells you that is trying to sell you something that will never do you any good.
[23:55.720 --> 23:56.720]  Gotcha.
[23:56.720 --> 24:04.360]  Generally, Eddie wants people to get the traffic seminar materials first before hiring him
[24:04.360 --> 24:06.320]  for paralegal services.
[24:06.320 --> 24:13.800]  The reason is because the law itself is dissected piece by piece in the seminar material.
[24:13.800 --> 24:15.920]  It's all about Texas law.
[24:15.920 --> 24:17.760]  It teaches you how to read a statute.
[24:17.760 --> 24:20.040]  It teaches you how to dissect a statute.
[24:20.040 --> 24:22.680]  It teaches you how to research a statute.
[24:22.680 --> 24:25.480]  It teaches you the law.
[24:25.480 --> 24:29.680]  I have a month that just happened the other day.
[24:29.680 --> 24:35.320]  Also, it has motions and documents that have already been filed in court, so they're a
[24:35.320 --> 24:38.000]  matter of public record.
[24:38.000 --> 24:41.760]  That way, you can change them and modify them for your own case, and Eddie can help you
[24:41.760 --> 24:47.160]  do that because technically, we cannot write legal documents for other people because we're
[24:47.160 --> 24:49.280]  not attorneys.
[24:49.280 --> 24:56.640]  You have to hire us as paralegals, which means you already have to have documents.
[24:56.640 --> 25:00.320]  The documents are included in the traffic seminar package.
[25:00.320 --> 25:04.800]  The nice thing is that as the seminar material is updated, you don't have to pay anything
[25:04.800 --> 25:06.000]  extra for the updates.
[25:06.000 --> 25:08.720]  We add motions, you get them automatically.
[25:08.720 --> 25:12.280]  You got questions, you can call and ask about them.
[25:12.280 --> 25:16.800]  There's no additional charge for any of that unless you're actually specifically asking
[25:16.800 --> 25:19.160]  me to help you work on a case.
[25:19.160 --> 25:23.960]  But the fact of the matter is, it's not that I want people to buy this for the sake of
[25:23.960 --> 25:28.160]  buying it, but there's a lot of things you've got to know to appear in court about what
[25:28.160 --> 25:33.440]  you're arguing and why, and unless you study what's in that seminar book, you're not going
[25:33.440 --> 25:34.440]  to know.
[25:34.440 --> 25:37.760]  Me giving you all the motions in the world is not going to help you at all if you don't
[25:37.760 --> 25:44.560]  understand what they say because you cannot present them in court and stand upon them
[25:44.560 --> 25:50.160]  and know what you need to know just from the motions themselves because you won't understand
[25:50.160 --> 25:51.920]  the underlying law behind them.
[25:51.920 --> 25:58.360]  Now, I heard a show about a month ago, and the guy said that he went to court and he
[25:58.360 --> 25:59.360]  said that they were unprepared.
[25:59.360 --> 26:00.960]  Now, is that usually the way it is?
[26:00.960 --> 26:04.320]  Are they usually unprepared for you coming into court?
[26:04.320 --> 26:08.200]  They're unprepared for you coming into court knowing what you're doing.
[26:08.200 --> 26:13.560]  What they expect you to do is to come in, put up a lame argument that they can just
[26:13.560 --> 26:17.160]  basically blow off and so they can find you guilty.
[26:17.160 --> 26:18.160]  Right.
[26:18.160 --> 26:25.560]  He said that he had your system and everything ready to go, but when he went into court that
[26:25.560 --> 26:29.080]  they weren't prepared for him at all and they just dismissed it.
[26:29.080 --> 26:33.760]  Right, and that's a possibility, but if you don't know to demand the dismissal, they're
[26:33.760 --> 26:37.000]  going to run right over you and tell you they're just going to reschedule you and you're still
[26:37.000 --> 26:38.520]  stuck.
[26:38.520 --> 26:43.600]  Without knowing what you're doing in court, you're just going to wind up getting railroaded.
[26:43.600 --> 26:50.360]  Well, I would like to do this, Eddie, just so we can report back on your radio show exactly
[26:50.360 --> 26:53.880]  how it happened or how do you feel about that?
[26:53.880 --> 26:55.280]  I'd feel great about that.
[26:55.280 --> 26:57.120]  I've had several people call in.
[26:57.120 --> 27:00.160]  As a matter of fact, one of our listeners Skyped me the other night and told me that
[27:00.160 --> 27:07.560]  he's running four and seven or four and six on things that he's filed in court so far
[27:07.560 --> 27:16.200]  because the others are either still pending or going on appeal because it's almost a slam
[27:16.200 --> 27:22.040]  dunk thing that you are going to lose at the low level court because they will not abide
[27:22.040 --> 27:23.040]  by the law.
[27:23.040 --> 27:24.640]  They will not read your motions.
[27:24.640 --> 27:26.080]  They could care less.
[27:26.080 --> 27:29.160]  They're there for the money collection and nothing else.
[27:29.160 --> 27:32.440]  Justice is a distant horizon event for them.
[27:32.440 --> 27:37.680]  Since the people are listening to this, then this would be a great, how do you say, experiment
[27:37.680 --> 27:40.160]  to do then.
[27:40.160 --> 27:45.560]  We hope that everyone will do it, that they will go in and fight this instead of just
[27:45.560 --> 27:47.800]  pay it so they don't have to go through the trouble.
[27:47.800 --> 27:50.680]  That's how this system got so embedded.
[27:50.680 --> 27:54.480]  It's a bunch of East Texas ticks on a dog.
[27:54.480 --> 27:58.840]  It's burrowed in so deep we're having trouble getting it off because we've let it go for
[27:58.840 --> 27:59.840]  so long.
[27:59.840 --> 28:08.120]  If I had, like I said, more time than a month to study all this stuff, I'd go at it alone.
[28:08.120 --> 28:10.360]  That's exactly why the book is important.
[28:10.360 --> 28:15.520]  The book is a little under 300 pages, but it takes you through everything step-by-step
[28:15.520 --> 28:17.520]  and shows you how to do it.
[28:17.520 --> 28:22.840]  It must be way more than enough time to read it.
[28:22.840 --> 28:23.840]  Absolutely.
[28:23.840 --> 28:28.120]  A month is way more than enough time for you to get through the traffic seminar.
[28:28.120 --> 28:31.160]  We went through the traffic seminar in a weekend with...
[28:31.160 --> 28:32.160]  Two days.
[28:32.160 --> 28:33.160]  Yes.
[28:33.160 --> 28:37.720]  It took me a day and a half to teach it, and then another half a day for Randy and Deborah
[28:37.720 --> 28:40.440]  to go over the counter suit materials.
[28:40.440 --> 28:47.240]  I would definitely like to learn this, and like I said, with your help also, I think
[28:47.240 --> 28:48.960]  I could learn it a lot faster.
[28:48.960 --> 28:50.640]  Me, I'm pressed on time.
[28:50.640 --> 28:53.320]  I'm working from seven in the morning to seven at night.
[28:53.320 --> 28:57.440]  I don't have a whole lot of spare time to devote.
[28:57.440 --> 29:03.280]  I will try my best to devote as much time as I can to it, but as I said, with your help,
[29:03.280 --> 29:05.280]  I think I could...
[29:05.280 --> 29:07.480]  That'll be fine, like I say.
[29:07.480 --> 29:11.720]  Right now, with as many people as I'm working on the things that I'm doing around here,
[29:11.720 --> 29:15.880]  my average sleep time is between two and four hours a night.
[29:15.880 --> 29:20.360]  Get the traffic seminar first, Ray, and go over it in your spare time.
[29:20.360 --> 29:26.480]  Just spend a couple hours a day if you can, and then you're certainly welcome to contact
[29:26.480 --> 29:30.240]  Eddie for additional explanation or help.
[29:30.240 --> 29:33.480]  I purchased this on your rule of law website?

[29:35.480 --> 29:36.480]  Yes.
[29:36.480 --> 29:37.480]  Okay.
[29:37.480 --> 29:38.480]  All right.
[29:38.480 --> 29:42.480]  Is it possible to get Eddie's number on the break?
[29:42.480 --> 29:44.280]  No, that's not possible.
[29:44.280 --> 29:51.520]  You can send Eddie an email if you would like, and then you can coordinate with him, but
[29:51.520 --> 29:53.200]  we can't talk to callers on the break.
[29:53.200 --> 29:54.200]  There's no time.
[29:54.200 --> 29:55.200]  All right.
[29:55.200 --> 29:56.200]  We will be right back.

[32:22.320 --> 32:29.320]  Okay, folks, we are back, sorry for the extended break.
[32:29.320 --> 32:36.320]  We're still trying to help Randy sort out technical issues on his end, and I do believe
[32:36.320 --> 32:43.320]  we have Randy and we are going to finish taking the calls and then we're going to bring Randy
[32:43.320 --> 32:50.320]  and his guest in, so thanks for joining us tonight, Randy.
[32:50.320 --> 32:55.320]  You are welcome, and I apologize for the technical difficulties.
[32:55.320 --> 32:56.320]  Okay.
[32:56.320 --> 32:57.320]  All right.
[32:57.320 --> 32:58.320]  It was all my fault.
[32:58.320 --> 32:59.320]  All right.
[32:59.320 --> 33:00.320]  Well, thanks, Randy.
[33:00.320 --> 33:01.320]  We appreciate that.
[33:01.320 --> 33:02.320]  All right.
[33:02.320 --> 33:03.320]  We're going now.
[33:03.320 --> 33:04.320]  You can be seated.
[33:04.320 --> 33:05.320]  All right.
[33:05.320 --> 33:06.320]  Thank you.
[33:06.320 --> 33:07.320]  Thank you.
[33:07.320 --> 33:08.320]  Thank you.
[33:08.320 --> 33:09.320]  Thank you.
[33:09.320 --> 33:10.320]  Thank you.
[33:10.320 --> 33:11.320]  Thank you.
[33:11.320 --> 33:12.320]  Thank you.
[33:12.320 --> 33:13.320]  Thank you.
[33:13.320 --> 33:14.320]  Thank you.
[33:14.320 --> 33:15.320]  Thank you.
[33:15.320 --> 33:16.320]  Thank you.
[33:16.320 --> 33:17.320]  Thank you.
[33:17.320 --> 33:20.320]  Thanks, Randy.
[33:20.320 --> 33:21.320]  We appreciate that.
[33:21.320 --> 33:22.320]  All right.
[33:22.320 --> 33:23.320]  We're going now.
[33:23.320 --> 33:24.320]  You can beat me later.
[33:24.320 --> 33:25.320]  Okay.
[33:25.320 --> 33:26.320]  I already beat you plenty, but I will beat you later some more, too, so make sure you
[33:26.320 --> 33:27.320]  count on that.
[33:27.320 --> 33:28.320]  All right.
[33:28.320 --> 33:29.320]  We're going now to Robert in Texas.
[33:29.320 --> 33:30.320]  Robert, thank you for calling in.
[33:30.320 --> 33:33.320]  What's on your mind tonight?
[33:33.320 --> 33:39.320]  I would like to speak about a case that's been going on for about four years with the
[33:39.320 --> 33:47.320]  county here in Richardson, and it's about 101 code violations.
[33:47.320 --> 33:50.320]  Each one was a ticket.
[33:50.320 --> 33:56.320]  And there's been some activity come back up on it.
[33:56.320 --> 34:01.320]  And first, I want to go back to the court four years ago.
[34:01.320 --> 34:10.320]  With 101 tickets, there was one court, one trial, and, of course, they didn't let my
[34:10.320 --> 34:17.320]  wife prepare for the trial because they kept her in jail until the trial.
[34:17.320 --> 34:23.320]  But the funny thing about it was, when we went to appeal, they charged us $25 for each
[34:23.320 --> 34:29.320]  ticket for the clerk to get that information together.
[34:29.320 --> 34:31.320]  So that comes to over $2,000 or $3,000.
[34:31.320 --> 34:33.320]  I don't remember how much it was.
[34:33.320 --> 34:40.320]  But we just appealed one, thinking we could lump them all together when we appealed it.
[34:40.320 --> 34:45.320]  And so the person who did the transcribe and the court reporter only did that one little
[34:45.320 --> 34:46.320]  ticket.
[34:46.320 --> 34:50.320]  And so the other ones, they didn't recognize on the appeal.
[34:50.320 --> 34:59.320]  And in fact, the judge blocked the appeal because he wanted to cash bond, and we did
[34:59.320 --> 35:03.320]  a couple of different type personal bonds, and he rejected them all.
[35:03.320 --> 35:07.320]  But we never got any notice that he rejected them.
[35:07.320 --> 35:12.320]  But anyway, since that time, four years have rolled around, and we've did different
[35:12.320 --> 35:13.320]  habeas.
[35:13.320 --> 35:18.320]  And he put a warrant out for her way back a couple years ago, or maybe a year ago.
[35:18.320 --> 35:23.320]  And the warrant was for $28,000.
[35:23.320 --> 35:35.320]  And today we get a notice to appear to address that $28,000 in a couple of weeks.
[35:35.320 --> 35:36.320]  And I feel...
[35:36.320 --> 35:39.320]  Was she ever arrested on the warrant?
[35:39.320 --> 35:40.320]  No.
[35:40.320 --> 35:43.320]  She's never been arrested on this warrant.
[35:43.320 --> 35:49.320]  Then they can't give her a notice to appear if they've never arrested her.
[35:49.320 --> 35:54.320]  I was wondering how he would start that back up like that.
[35:54.320 --> 36:05.320]  Yeah, I had the same issue in Cherokee County when I filed criminal charges against a judge
[36:05.320 --> 36:09.320]  and prosecutor with the grand jury.
[36:09.320 --> 36:15.320]  They charged me with operating and investigating business without a license, and then sent
[36:15.320 --> 36:18.320]  me a notice to appear.
[36:18.320 --> 36:22.320]  And when I didn't appear, they issued a warrant.
[36:22.320 --> 36:24.320]  Problem.
[36:24.320 --> 36:31.320]  You can't hold someone responsible for failure to appear unless they have promised to appear.
[36:31.320 --> 36:34.320]  So the notice to appear is a friendly request.
[36:34.320 --> 36:37.320]  That's what I was thinking.
[36:37.320 --> 36:43.320]  It's clearly, look in failure to appear statute, I forget the number, but it very clearly states
[36:43.320 --> 36:51.320]  if you fail to appear on a promise to appear, you're guilty of failure to appear.
[36:51.320 --> 36:52.320]  Okay.
[36:52.320 --> 36:58.320]  So he has no authority to order you into court until your wife's been arrested.
[36:58.320 --> 37:01.320]  You said these tickets were issued on a code violation.
[37:01.320 --> 37:03.320]  What code?
[37:03.320 --> 37:08.320]  It was back when I was very ill and I let my house go and it needed to be painted up.
[37:08.320 --> 37:10.320]  I brought this up in the past.
[37:10.320 --> 37:11.320]  Okay.
[37:11.320 --> 37:13.320]  So this is a city ordinance you're referring to then.
[37:13.320 --> 37:14.320]  Right, yeah.
[37:14.320 --> 37:15.320]  Okay.
[37:15.320 --> 37:16.320]  Then they have a severe problem.
[37:16.320 --> 37:18.320]  You are in Texas, right?
[37:18.320 --> 37:19.320]  Yeah.
[37:19.320 --> 37:20.320]  Okay.
[37:20.320 --> 37:25.320]  They have a severe problem using a city ordinance against you and private property.
[37:25.320 --> 37:33.320]  Texas Constitution specifically forbids anything to be called a law that does not have the enacting clause
[37:33.320 --> 37:36.320]  specified under Article 3, Section 29.
[37:36.320 --> 37:40.320]  It specifically states all laws shall have the following enacting clause,
[37:40.320 --> 37:43.320]  be it enacted by the legislature of the state of Texas.
[37:43.320 --> 37:48.320]  A city ordinance or a county ordinance does not have that enacting clause.
[37:48.320 --> 37:52.320]  It is not enacted by the legislature of the state of Texas.
[37:52.320 --> 37:57.320]  Therefore, it cannot in any way, shape or form be binding upon the people.
[37:57.320 --> 38:05.320]  As an ordinance, it can only be binding upon those subject to the authority of the city as an employee or as a contractor.
[38:05.320 --> 38:09.320]  It cannot apply to anyone else because it cannot be a law.
[38:09.320 --> 38:17.320]  It can only be a rule, and rules can only be applied to the employees of the rulemaking agency.
[38:17.320 --> 38:26.320]  But some of these code, and I don't think we fall in this category, but a lot of the stuff is with agreements.
[38:26.320 --> 38:29.320]  Agreements with who?
[38:29.320 --> 38:32.320]  The city or the...
[38:32.320 --> 38:34.320]  You signed a contract with the city?
[38:34.320 --> 38:39.320]  No, no, no, but I'm talking about that's what they, they do that from habit a lot of times
[38:39.320 --> 38:46.320]  because I know in the newer neighborhoods, what do they call those organizations that...
[38:46.320 --> 38:49.320]  Okay, a habit does not a contract make.
[38:49.320 --> 38:53.320]  Yeah, I understand, but what do you call those organizations that...
[38:53.320 --> 38:54.320]  Homeowners' Association?
[38:54.320 --> 38:55.320]  Homeowners' Association.
[38:55.320 --> 39:02.320]  Sometimes there's agreements with those, but we don't have one with them either.
[39:02.320 --> 39:05.320]  You know what I was going to say now?
[39:05.320 --> 39:13.320]  But anyway, oh, about six months ago when we did our habeas, well, the Judge Noah,
[39:13.320 --> 39:22.320]  Randy's favorite judge, said that when my wife, when he dismissed the habeas, well,
[39:22.320 --> 39:29.320]  he said, he asked my wife if she wanted to speak with a prosecutor, and of course she didn't.
[39:29.320 --> 39:31.320]  Maybe she should have, but she didn't.
[39:31.320 --> 39:36.320]  We don't want to negotiate with them because we're going to see them sooner or later.
[39:36.320 --> 39:44.320]  But the deal here is I feel like that this notice to appear is to, they did a lot of wrong to us,
[39:44.320 --> 39:48.320]  and we've gotten kind of over the barrel, but we haven't got to the point we need to get.
[39:48.320 --> 39:49.320]  They've been blocking us.
[39:49.320 --> 39:52.320]  He's blocked the appeal completely.
[39:52.320 --> 39:57.320]  So the fact that I feel like he wants to negotiate this thing and do away with this
[39:57.320 --> 40:02.320]  because we have the house fixed, but at the same time we can't go in and negotiate with it
[40:02.320 --> 40:07.320]  because it will negate your suit.
[40:07.320 --> 40:10.320]  Law suit.
[40:10.320 --> 40:12.320]  Okay.
[40:12.320 --> 40:14.320]  So why have you not filed suit?
[40:14.320 --> 40:18.320]  We're waiting on something in our favor.
[40:18.320 --> 40:20.320]  Why?
[40:20.320 --> 40:25.320]  There is no requirement that you wait on anything when someone does you wrong.
[40:25.320 --> 40:30.320]  The only requirement you would have is if you sue them in their official capacities
[40:30.320 --> 40:33.320]  is you have to file a tort letter.
[40:33.320 --> 40:36.320]  And that's in your package, isn't it?
[40:36.320 --> 40:42.320]  Well, a tort letter, you can file a tort letter directly with any official body
[40:42.320 --> 40:45.320]  just stating that here's the issue.
[40:45.320 --> 40:50.320]  I'm suing you because you are hereby noticed that you're going to be sued in 61 days.
[40:50.320 --> 40:52.320]  I will file.
[40:52.320 --> 40:58.320]  That's really all a tort letter is, is just notification of your intent to sue.
[40:58.320 --> 41:05.320]  Well, I really like what Randy said about the notice to appear.
[41:05.320 --> 41:08.320]  So they haven't tried to arrest her.
[41:08.320 --> 41:10.320]  The warrant's been out for over three years.
[41:10.320 --> 41:12.320]  They don't want to arrest her.
[41:12.320 --> 41:15.320]  She's 70 years old.
[41:15.320 --> 41:19.320]  Anyway, that's my story and I've got some information here.
[41:19.320 --> 41:22.320]  I may call back later, earlier in the week, next week or something.
[41:22.320 --> 41:23.320]  All right.
[41:23.320 --> 41:24.320]  Thank you, Robert.
[41:24.320 --> 41:25.320]  Thank you.
[41:25.320 --> 41:26.320]  Bye.
[41:26.320 --> 41:28.320]  I'm calling in Carl from Texas on the line now.
[41:28.320 --> 41:30.320]  Carl, thanks for calling in.
[41:30.320 --> 41:32.320]  What is your, what's on your mind tonight?
[41:32.320 --> 41:33.320]  Hello, everyone.
[41:33.320 --> 41:38.320]  I heard some of the previous callers and, you know, I hear it all the time.
[41:38.320 --> 41:40.320]  And we've got a lot of good comments,
[41:40.320 --> 41:44.320]  but I want to challenge everybody out there to get the traffic seminar
[41:44.320 --> 41:50.320]  because I think a lot of people don't understand what all is in there.
[41:50.320 --> 41:55.320]  You get the MP3 voice recording of the actual seminar.
[41:55.320 --> 41:58.320]  You get the material that you can follow along with,
[41:58.320 --> 42:01.320]  and you get all the motions already done.
[42:01.320 --> 42:07.320]  And so I hear people want to talk about the merits of the case,
[42:07.320 --> 42:12.320]  and none of these cases are going to be won on the merits.
[42:12.320 --> 42:18.320]  They're all going to be won based on the motions that are filed
[42:18.320 --> 42:21.320]  that show these rascals for what they are.
[42:21.320 --> 42:26.320]  And so we need more people playing in the game,
[42:26.320 --> 42:30.320]  not just listening to the show, taking these callers to court,
[42:30.320 --> 42:37.320]  and filing the proper documentation to get off the bench and into the game.
[42:37.320 --> 42:43.320]  And I just challenge everybody to get the seminar and to get your dictionary
[42:43.320 --> 42:46.320]  so you can really participate in what we're doing.
[42:46.320 --> 42:48.320]  Yeah, I appreciate that.
[42:48.320 --> 42:53.320]  And I would just like you folks to know that the very weekend the seminar was done,
[42:53.320 --> 42:58.320]  we had two gentlemen that attended the seminar that came down from Michigan.
[42:58.320 --> 43:01.320]  They were driving back that Sunday night.
[43:01.320 --> 43:04.320]  They were almost into Arkansas, I believe they said,
[43:04.320 --> 43:08.320]  when they got pulled over by a Texas state trooper who pulled them over
[43:08.320 --> 43:12.320]  because they looked suspicious, had no other probable cause,
[43:12.320 --> 43:17.320]  started searching through the car and came across the traffic seminar book.
[43:17.320 --> 43:20.320]  Immediately after opening the book, throws it back in the car,
[43:20.320 --> 43:25.320]  gives them back their keys and tells them, have a nice night, and he takes off.
[43:25.320 --> 43:30.320]  The second time the seminar has worked without anything else being done
[43:30.320 --> 43:32.320]  was when I was coming home.
[43:32.320 --> 43:34.320]  I got pulled over in Rockdale.
[43:34.320 --> 43:35.320]  I'll finish this on the other side.
[43:35.320 --> 43:37.320]  I hear the break music.
[43:37.320 --> 43:40.320]  Okay, so when we get to the other side, we'll pick up with Randy and his guests,
[43:40.320 --> 43:41.320]  so folks, you all hang in there.
[43:41.320 --> 43:46.320]  This is Rule of Law Radio, and we will be right back after this break.

[46:31.320 --> 46:36.320]  After some time, worth of my time, got me down to damn near nothing
[46:36.320 --> 46:41.320]  I might have been too known right, but still, I make my living pushin' buttons
[46:42.320 --> 46:43.320]  Yeah
[46:44.320 --> 46:47.320]  Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
[46:50.320 --> 46:52.320]  Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
[46:53.320 --> 46:59.320]  There's a man over there with ammunition lookin' for a brand new chance
[46:59.320 --> 47:04.320]  To profit from my fear, we're gonna show him a brand new dance
[47:04.320 --> 47:10.320]  267 stories, he blew up into almost nothin'
[47:10.320 --> 47:15.320]  I'm in pain in the rain, it makes me make my living pushin' buttons
[47:15.320 --> 47:17.320]  Yeah
[47:18.320 --> 47:20.320]  Pushin' so good
[47:21.320 --> 47:26.320]  Mm-hmm, it's like I know I should
[47:26.320 --> 47:31.320]  Pushin' on the envelope
[47:32.320 --> 47:37.320]  I give them all plenty of rope
[47:37.320 --> 47:43.320]  I can see a whole heap of slack I ain't gonna be cuttin'
[47:43.320 --> 47:48.320]  If I take my faith happy, then make my living pushin' buttons
[47:48.320 --> 47:52.320]  Yeah
[47:52.320 --> 47:57.320]  Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
[47:59.320 --> 48:02.320]  Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
[48:03.320 --> 48:06.320]  All right, folks, we are back. Rule of Law Radio.
[48:06.320 --> 48:11.320]  Okay, now, the second time the seminar material has been useful to us
[48:11.320 --> 48:15.320]  was when I was actually coming home on November 1st from the seminar.
[48:15.320 --> 48:20.320]  I got pulled over and arrested for 40 whole minutes in Rockville, Texas.
[48:20.320 --> 48:23.320]  I never filed a single document in my case.
[48:23.320 --> 48:26.320]  All I did was give a copy of the seminar book to the police officer
[48:26.320 --> 48:30.320]  and asked him to read it, which he obviously did.
[48:30.320 --> 48:33.320]  Because a week later, I got a complete dismissal in the mail
[48:33.320 --> 48:39.320]  from the municipal judge and from the city attorney, dismissing the entire case.
[48:39.320 --> 48:43.320]  What's in the seminar material is the law.
[48:43.320 --> 48:47.320]  It is not mumbo jumbo. It is not patriot myth.
[48:47.320 --> 48:52.320]  It is based entirely upon the statutes and how they're written.
[48:52.320 --> 48:57.320]  They cannot take you to court and win on the merits if you know what's in the seminar.
[48:57.320 --> 49:02.320]  But the problem is, for them, that you never have to address the merits.
[49:02.320 --> 49:06.320]  Why? Because they have already screwed up on the process so bad,
[49:06.320 --> 49:08.320]  the merits are worthless to them now.
[49:08.320 --> 49:12.320]  They have violated your rights. They have violated the law.
[49:12.320 --> 49:14.320]  They have violated the Texas Constitution.
[49:14.320 --> 49:17.320]  No ifs, no ands, no buts.
[49:17.320 --> 49:21.320]  That's what we argue. That's why we argue.
[49:21.320 --> 49:25.320]  They are taking everything they're doing in this traffic enforcement idiocy
[49:25.320 --> 49:31.320]  and turning us into a police state using that as the hammer to beat us into submission.
[49:31.320 --> 49:37.320]  And it's time for it to end.
[49:37.320 --> 49:38.320]  Hear, hear, hear, hear.
[49:38.320 --> 49:40.320]  Indeed, indeed.
[49:40.320 --> 49:45.320]  And again, Eddie got released and got his bond returned to him and everything
[49:45.320 --> 49:51.320]  just from having the traffic seminar materials on him.
[49:51.320 --> 49:57.320]  And on the 10th of August, I'm going to be in court
[49:57.320 --> 50:01.320]  and there's a good chance they'll beat me into unconsciousness
[50:01.320 --> 50:05.320]  because when this happened to Eddie I was listening on the cell phone
[50:05.320 --> 50:09.320]  and I was expecting to hear him beaten into unconsciousness
[50:09.320 --> 50:14.320]  but I'm going to go to court in Austin the 10th
[50:14.320 --> 50:17.320]  and I will be arguing all these issues
[50:17.320 --> 50:24.320]  and good chance about the third time I ask the bailiff to drag the judge down off the bench
[50:24.320 --> 50:27.320]  they're likely to throw me in jail again.
[50:27.320 --> 50:30.320]  Well, hopefully not.
[50:30.320 --> 50:36.320]  And that's the Austin Municipal Court, right Randy?
[50:36.320 --> 50:38.320]  Yeah, that's the Municipal Court in Austin.
[50:38.320 --> 50:39.320]  Okay, very good.
[50:39.320 --> 50:42.320]  All right, well Randy, now that we've finally got you on the line
[50:42.320 --> 50:44.320]  and we've taken some calls,
[50:44.320 --> 50:47.320]  why don't you let us know some more about what's going on with you
[50:47.320 --> 50:50.320]  and your mortgage fraud business
[50:50.320 --> 50:53.320]  and you do have a guest tonight in studio where you are at,
[50:53.320 --> 50:56.320]  someone that works in the real estate industry.
[50:56.320 --> 51:00.320]  So why don't you introduce your guest and tell us what's going on?
[51:00.320 --> 51:06.320]  Yes, I have a guest and don't get too excited.
[51:06.320 --> 51:09.320]  She's an attorney.
[51:09.320 --> 51:12.320]  I can hear all the booing out there but this is a real attorney.
[51:12.320 --> 51:14.320]  This is the real deal.
[51:14.320 --> 51:19.320]  I did a seminar in San Diego and she was there.
[51:19.320 --> 51:23.320]  She's an attorney that works in real estate
[51:23.320 --> 51:27.320]  but more important she's running for Attorney General
[51:27.320 --> 51:34.320]  and under the American Independent Party, American Independent Candidate
[51:34.320 --> 51:39.320]  and she's a California affiliate of the Constitution Party.
[51:39.320 --> 51:45.320]  She's one of us and I would like to introduce to you, it's Diane Templin.
[51:45.320 --> 51:50.320]  Diane, will you tell us about what you're up to?
[51:50.320 --> 51:52.320]  Well, it's a pleasure to have met Randy
[51:52.320 --> 51:57.320]  because everybody here is looking for remedy to save their homes.
[51:57.320 --> 52:04.320]  So what I'm up to is I've been an attorney for about 35 years.
[52:04.320 --> 52:08.320]  I became a real estate broker actually about five years ago
[52:08.320 --> 52:17.320]  and for about the last 15 years I've been trying to restore America to a constitutional republic.
[52:17.320 --> 52:22.320]  So the American Independent Party is the California affiliate of the Constitution Party
[52:22.320 --> 52:26.320]  so I just run on whatever opportunity I have.
[52:26.320 --> 52:33.320]  Actually when I started in 1995 I was trying to run against Perot and the Reform Party
[52:33.320 --> 52:36.320]  because I'd already given up on the Republicans and Democrats
[52:36.320 --> 52:42.320]  and I wanted to present a constitutional position through the Reform Party.
[52:42.320 --> 52:48.320]  But anyway, so what I've been doing lately for the last about year and a half actually
[52:48.320 --> 52:51.320]  is just trying to help people save their homes.
[52:51.320 --> 52:55.320]  I got roped into this with my daughter who told me that the day after
[52:55.320 --> 52:58.320]  she met with somebody the day after Christmas
[52:58.320 --> 53:03.320]  who advised me that they were being thrown out of their house the day after New Year's.
[53:03.320 --> 53:07.320]  They couldn't get hold of an attorney and she was like, Mom, would you please help?
[53:07.320 --> 53:12.320]  Anyway, it was a mom and dad with three children and the parents who lived with them
[53:12.320 --> 53:17.320]  who had put all their savings into buying a grandparent's home, I'm sorry,
[53:17.320 --> 53:22.320]  putting it into a permit so that they could have their grandparents' home right behind theirs.
[53:22.320 --> 53:25.320]  And they were just, you know, they didn't know what to do, they were beside themselves.
[53:25.320 --> 53:27.320]  So that was my first experience.
[53:27.320 --> 53:33.320]  I just went into court and did an ex parte application for a stay based on hardship.
[53:33.320 --> 53:39.320]  And I knew so little then, I just also put in like a counterclaim for damages against the bank
[53:39.320 --> 53:42.320]  and I said produced a note and all these different things.
[53:42.320 --> 53:46.320]  Fortunately the other attorney, they do mostly special appearance attorneys,
[53:46.320 --> 53:50.320]  he knew less than I did so he gave me three and a half months at that point.
[53:50.320 --> 53:56.320]  And I was going to proceed with, you know, a lawsuit but anyway the people got scared
[53:56.320 --> 54:00.320]  and they moved out and so since then I've been attending a lot of seminars
[54:00.320 --> 54:04.320]  and just taking cases and doing what I can at this point.
[54:04.320 --> 54:08.320]  So I'm just really thrilled to have met Randy because a group of people
[54:08.320 --> 54:14.320]  that I associate with down in Southern California have formed kind of a homeowner's group
[54:14.320 --> 54:16.320]  and we're all trying to learn from one another.
[54:16.320 --> 54:21.320]  So they invited Randy to come and speak because they had heard that he has this wonderful software
[54:21.320 --> 54:27.320]  that gives actual calculations of the TLA violations and the rest of the violations
[54:27.320 --> 54:32.320]  so that they can actually have a valid complaint and they won't get kicked out of court.
[54:32.320 --> 54:39.320]  They might be able to get a temporary restraining order and or a preliminary injunction hopefully
[54:39.320 --> 54:45.320]  so that they can litigate all these issues inside state court, federal court and or bankruptcy court.
[54:45.320 --> 54:48.320]  So I'm just like really, you know, so excited to have met Randy.
[54:48.320 --> 54:53.320]  We had another meeting today again of homeowners and people who were kind of paralegals
[54:53.320 --> 55:00.320]  and we're just all trying to get together and see what we can do to fight the banksters.
[55:00.320 --> 55:03.320]  And so far we're having pretty good luck.
[55:03.320 --> 55:09.320]  I count 11, no answer defaults so far.
[55:09.320 --> 55:13.320]  Eleven, last night was nine and now it's eleven?
[55:13.320 --> 55:17.320]  Well, it seems Chris in Albany's got three.
[55:17.320 --> 55:19.320]  Oh, that's wonderful.
[55:19.320 --> 55:24.320]  Now do you know what the status are of any of the other cases of your clients
[55:24.320 --> 55:28.320]  or has every client come back with a no answer default so far?
[55:28.320 --> 55:34.320]  No, we have a lot that's filed and haven't reached the 21 day period yet.
[55:34.320 --> 55:42.320]  We have a number of them that have received answers but all the answers are essentially the same.
[55:42.320 --> 55:46.320]  We deny all allegations by plaintiff.
[55:46.320 --> 55:49.320]  But that's not very responsive, is it?
[55:49.320 --> 55:58.320]  No, that gets a motion to strike as non-responsive because while we make a number of allegations,
[55:58.320 --> 56:07.320]  we make them with specificity and the defendant is required to answer them with particularity.
[56:07.320 --> 56:16.320]  And the whole idea of the suit was to make it so difficult to answer
[56:16.320 --> 56:25.320]  that the attorneys trying to formulate arguments on the other side were looking at having to rush
[56:25.320 --> 56:28.320]  because they've only got 21 days.
[56:28.320 --> 56:35.320]  It took me almost a year to get this thing put together, a year of intensive research.
[56:35.320 --> 56:39.320]  We drop it on them, they've got 21 days.
[56:39.320 --> 56:44.320]  And by the time we file the suit and they get served with it
[56:44.320 --> 56:49.320]  and it gets through all of their channels and gets in the proper attorney's hands,
[56:49.320 --> 56:51.320]  he's running out of time already.
[56:51.320 --> 56:57.320]  So the idea of being able to answer all of these issues is just not happening.
[56:57.320 --> 57:00.320]  And Diane, what do you think about Randy's lawsuit?
[57:00.320 --> 57:01.320]  I think they're great.
[57:01.320 --> 57:02.320]  I think it's wonderful.
[57:02.320 --> 57:12.320]  That's why I said I'm so excited to see that there is a real remedy, that there's specifics.
[57:12.320 --> 57:19.320]  In other words, from what he was showing me today, you can actually calculate the amount of damages.
[57:19.320 --> 57:24.320]  He's able to go in and show the exact amount of difference between what they represented,
[57:24.320 --> 57:28.320]  the borrower was going to pay, and what they actually had to pay,
[57:28.320 --> 57:35.320]  and what they represented as being the percentage interest rate and what they actually paid.
[57:35.320 --> 57:38.320]  And he can calculate that, and based on the differences,
[57:38.320 --> 57:45.320]  he can then ask for triple damages, which is provided for under the statute.
[57:45.320 --> 57:51.320]  And I haven't seen that kind of specific detail that gives us real teeth to go in and file the lawsuit.
[57:51.320 --> 57:57.320]  Many of these lawsuits are getting dismissed because they're just real general cookie cutter,
[57:57.320 --> 58:00.320]  well, they committed fraud and they violated TEAL and RESPA,
[58:00.320 --> 58:06.320]  but there's no facts upon which the people can really have a specific allegation
[58:06.320 --> 58:16.320]  as to the specific damages that are in violations of RESPA and TEALA.
[58:16.320 --> 58:20.320]  That's fantastic. I'm very excited to hear that.
[58:20.320 --> 58:23.320]  I'm sorry, Randy, are you trying to say something? We can't hear you.
[58:23.320 --> 58:27.320]  Yeah, I was talking, I had my mic muted, so it's coming in on the other one.
[58:27.320 --> 58:31.320]  Yes, we're having a lot of fun with it.
[58:31.320 --> 58:37.320]  When I come back on the other side, we'll kind of talk about the dirty, rotten, stinking lawyer tricks we're pulling.
[58:37.320 --> 58:39.320]  Okay, that sounds great.
[58:39.320 --> 58:41.320]  Present company accepted.
[58:41.320 --> 58:45.320]  And we do have a caller on the line, Carlos in California.
[58:45.320 --> 58:47.320]  I'm sure he's calling in about some real estate issues as well.
[58:47.320 --> 58:52.320]  So folks, we'll be right back. This is the rule of law, Randy Kelton, Eddie Craig, and Deborah Stevens.
[58:52.320 --> 58:59.320]  We'll be right back on the other side of the break if you'd like to call in 512-646-1984.
[58:59.320 --> 59:05.320]  It is so enlightening to listen to 90.1 FM, but finding things on the Internet isn't so easy,
[59:05.320 --> 59:08.320]  and neither is finding like-minded people to share it with.
[59:08.320 --> 59:11.320]  Oh, well, I guess you haven't heard of Brave New Books, then.
[59:11.320 --> 59:12.320]  Brave New Books?
[59:12.320 --> 59:19.320]  Yes, Brave New Books has all the books and DVDs you're looking for by authors like Alex Jones, Ron Paul, and G. Edward Griffin.
[59:19.320 --> 59:23.320]  They even stock inner food, Berkey products, and Calvin Soaps.
[59:23.320 --> 59:25.320]  There's no way a place like that exists.
[59:25.320 --> 59:31.320]  Go check it out for yourself. It's downtown at 1904 Guadalupe Street just south of UT.
[59:31.320 --> 59:34.320]  By UT, there's never anywhere to park down there.
[59:34.320 --> 59:42.320]  Actually, they now offer a free hour of parking for paying customers at the 500 MLK parking facility just behind the bookstore.
[59:42.320 --> 59:46.320]  It does exist, but when are they open?
[59:46.320 --> 59:51.320]  Monday through Saturday, 11 AM to 9 PM, and 1 to 6 PM on Sundays.
[59:51.320 --> 59:59.320]  So give them a call at 512-480-2503, or check out their events page at bravenewbookstore.com.
[59:59.320 --> 01:00:04.320]  This news brief brought to you by the International News Net.
[01:00:04.320 --> 01:00:09.320]  Private First Class Bradley Manning, the U.S. soldier suspected of leaking classified material to WikiLeaks,
[01:00:09.320 --> 01:00:14.320]  has been transferred to a Marine Corps brig in Quantico, Virginia.
[01:00:14.320 --> 01:00:19.320]  The Army hasn't decided whether Manning, a former intelligence analyst who was charged in June
[01:00:19.320 --> 01:00:25.320]  with eight violations of the U.S. Criminal Code, should face a military trial.
[01:00:25.320 --> 01:00:32.320]  Despite billions in aid from Washington, Pakistanis have an overwhelmingly negative view of the U.S.
[01:00:32.320 --> 01:00:37.320]  A Pew Research Center poll released Thursday found nearly six out of ten Pakistanis
[01:00:37.320 --> 01:00:44.320]  described the U.S. as an enemy and want U.S. troops out of Afghanistan.
[01:00:44.320 --> 01:00:49.320]  Two powerful blasts have killed at least eight Afghan security contractors in Afghanistan
[01:00:49.320 --> 01:00:57.320]  amid rising militant attacks against the foreign and government forces in the war-torn country.
[01:00:57.320 --> 01:01:04.320]  Militants flew an Al-Qaeda flag over a Baghdad neighborhood Thursday after killing 16 security officials
[01:01:04.320 --> 01:01:10.320]  and burning some of their bodies. It was the bloodiest attack in a day that saw the deaths of 23 Iraqi soldiers,
[01:01:10.320 --> 01:01:16.320]  policemen and other security forces across the country from shootings and roadside bombs.
[01:01:16.320 --> 01:01:24.320]  The mayhem was a stark warning that insurgents are trying to make a comeback as the U.S. military presence decreases daily.
[01:01:24.320 --> 01:01:29.320]  On Wednesday, Vice President Joe Biden had predicted there would not be an extreme outbreak
[01:01:29.320 --> 01:01:36.320]  of sectarian violence in Iraq as U.S. forces leave the country. He said the 50,000 U.S. troops left behind
[01:01:36.320 --> 01:01:42.320]  would be more than enough to help Iraqi forces maintain security. It has been more than four months
[01:01:42.320 --> 01:01:49.320]  since Iraq's election with little indication that a government can be formed before Ramadan begins in mid-August,
[01:01:49.320 --> 01:01:53.320]  bringing a halt to business in much of the Middle East.
[01:01:53.320 --> 01:02:00.320]  This news brief brought to you by the International News Network. Republicans on the House of Representatives' ethics panel
[01:02:00.320 --> 01:02:07.320]  say Representative Charles Rangel passed up chances to settle misconduct charges and now must face an airing of allegations
[01:02:07.320 --> 01:02:13.320]  that include improperly seeking donations from companies with business before Congress.
[01:02:13.320 --> 01:02:19.320]  Charges against Rangel were detailed Thursday at a hearing of a subcommittee to determine whether Rangel is guilty
[01:02:19.320 --> 01:02:26.320]  of 13 allegations of ethical misconduct. A public hearing on the charges, which won't occur until after the August recess,
[01:02:26.320 --> 01:02:30.320]  could be awkward for Democrats as November elections approach.
[01:02:30.320 --> 01:02:35.320]  That vote will determine whether the party retains control of the House and Senate.
[01:02:35.320 --> 01:02:43.320]  Charges against Rangel include allegations he obtained $8 million in donations from New York Life, AIG,
[01:02:43.320 --> 01:02:50.320]  and private foundations related to AT&T and Verizon to help fund construction of the Charles Rangel Center
[01:02:50.320 --> 01:02:53.320]  for Public Service at the City College of New York.
[01:02:53.320 --> 01:03:14.320]  This news brief brought to you by the International News Network.
[01:03:23.320 --> 01:03:30.320]  It's all according to the will of the Almighty.
[01:03:30.320 --> 01:03:37.320]  I read his book and it says he cares not for the unsightly.
[01:03:37.320 --> 01:03:46.320]  These warmongers come by that term rightly.
[01:03:46.320 --> 01:03:49.320]  I won't pay for the war with my fight.
[01:03:49.320 --> 01:03:52.320]  Ain't gonna pay for the car with my money.
[01:03:52.320 --> 01:03:55.320]  I won't pay for the fun with my body.
[01:03:55.320 --> 01:03:59.320]  Their plans wicked and their logic shoddy.
[01:03:59.320 --> 01:04:02.320]  Ain't gonna pay for the oil with my body.
[01:04:02.320 --> 01:04:06.320]  I won't pay for the boys with my money.
[01:04:06.320 --> 01:04:10.320]  Ain't gonna pay for the kids with my body.
[01:04:10.320 --> 01:04:13.320]  The whole agenda smells funny.
[01:04:13.320 --> 01:04:20.320]  I wanna fight in a war of my own.
[01:04:20.320 --> 01:04:27.320]  That one would be less accident prone.
[01:04:27.320 --> 01:04:33.320]  I wanna pay for war of my own.
[01:04:33.320 --> 01:04:40.320]  They live in glass houses so I can watch them grow old.
[01:04:40.320 --> 01:04:43.320]  I wanna fight in a war I can win.
[01:04:43.320 --> 01:04:45.320]  I can never win no one.
[01:04:45.320 --> 01:04:51.320]  They hate at me and that one I lose long before it begins.
[01:04:51.320 --> 01:04:54.320]  I wanna pay for a war I can win.
[01:04:54.320 --> 01:05:01.320]  When I'm fighting in my own war.
[01:05:01.320 --> 01:05:08.320]  It's such a peaceful feeling.
[01:05:08.320 --> 01:05:14.320]  When I'm paying for my own war.
[01:05:14.320 --> 01:05:24.320]  I take time for the healing.
[01:05:24.320 --> 01:05:31.320]  It's all according to the will of the Almighty.
[01:05:31.320 --> 01:05:38.320]  I read his book and he says he cares not for the unsightly.
[01:05:38.320 --> 01:05:58.320]  These fear mongers come by that term rightly.
[01:05:58.320 --> 01:06:01.320]  Fear monger, war monger, we don't need you.
[01:06:01.320 --> 01:06:11.320]  We're stronger.
[01:06:11.320 --> 01:06:13.320]  Ain't gonna pay.
[01:06:13.320 --> 01:06:22.320]  I won't pay for the war with my body.
[01:06:22.320 --> 01:06:32.320]  When I'm fighting in my own war.
[01:06:32.320 --> 01:06:39.320]  It's such a peaceful feeling.
[01:06:39.320 --> 01:06:49.320]  When I'm fighting in my own war.
[01:06:49.320 --> 01:06:52.320]  Because these wicked guys don't care about me.
[01:06:52.320 --> 01:06:56.320]  All they care about is them army.
[01:06:56.320 --> 01:06:59.320]  War and crime and how they make money.
[01:06:59.320 --> 01:07:02.320]  Don't give a damn about the rest around we.
[01:07:02.320 --> 01:07:06.320]  These wicked men, we say them I love we.
[01:07:06.320 --> 01:07:07.320]  Don't care about me.
[01:07:07.320 --> 01:07:09.320]  Okay folks, we are back.
[01:07:09.320 --> 01:07:13.320]  I'm so sorry for the extended break in this situation.
[01:07:13.320 --> 01:07:20.320]  Randy was having a lot of technical problems on his end again.
[01:07:20.320 --> 01:07:23.320]  Apparently he had a channel muted and didn't realize it.
[01:07:23.320 --> 01:07:27.320]  It's that gremlin that keeps muting my mic when I'm not looking.
[01:07:27.320 --> 01:07:30.320]  Okay, so everyone here's a sound lesson.
[01:07:30.320 --> 01:07:34.320]  There's generally a little light next to the mute button.
[01:07:34.320 --> 01:07:37.320]  When that light is on, the channel is muted.
[01:07:37.320 --> 01:07:40.320]  Okay, here's a heads up for everyone out there.
[01:07:40.320 --> 01:07:41.320]  Is that what that was?
[01:07:41.320 --> 01:07:44.320]  Okay, look for the little light next to the mute button.
[01:07:44.320 --> 01:07:46.320]  I thought it was just pretty light.
[01:07:46.320 --> 01:07:48.320]  No, it's more than just pretty lights, Randy.
[01:07:48.320 --> 01:07:51.320]  Okay, so when the light is on, you're muted.
[01:07:51.320 --> 01:07:53.320]  When the light is off, you're good to go.
[01:07:53.320 --> 01:07:54.320]  Okay, so.
[01:07:54.320 --> 01:07:55.320]  Okay, I got it.
[01:07:55.320 --> 01:07:57.320]  Okay, very good.
[01:07:57.320 --> 01:08:00.320]  All right, so Diane, you wanted to talk a little bit more about the
[01:08:00.320 --> 01:08:05.320]  specificity in this suit that Randy has been working on for a long time.
[01:08:05.320 --> 01:08:07.320]  And Carlos, we see you on the board.
[01:08:07.320 --> 01:08:08.320]  We'll go to you in just a few moments.
[01:08:08.320 --> 01:08:11.320]  So go ahead, please, Diane.
[01:08:11.320 --> 01:08:14.320]  Right, if we're talking about like the amendments to TILA that were
[01:08:14.320 --> 01:08:20.320]  adopted in 1995, it talks about, you know, a specific rule.
[01:08:20.320 --> 01:08:26.320]  And that is that the finance charge error committed by the lender,
[01:08:26.320 --> 01:08:32.320]  pretender lender, must exceed one-half of 1% of the total loan amount or
[01:08:32.320 --> 01:08:37.320]  1% of the refinancing transaction, if it's a refinance.
[01:08:37.320 --> 01:08:42.320]  And that's under 15 USC 1605.
[01:08:42.320 --> 01:08:45.320]  The problem that most homeowners have, and the problem even attorneys have
[01:08:45.320 --> 01:08:51.320]  for sure, including real estate brokers, is that they don't really know how
[01:08:51.320 --> 01:08:52.320]  to calculate this.
[01:08:52.320 --> 01:08:56.320]  They can't really tell if they have a claim under TILA.
[01:08:56.320 --> 01:09:01.320]  So under Randy's program, the way he showed me is that his computer
[01:09:01.320 --> 01:09:04.320]  program is able to crunch the numbers.
[01:09:04.320 --> 01:09:09.320]  Now, and also there's like an exception to that rule that I talked about,
[01:09:09.320 --> 01:09:14.320]  where if a homeowner is asserting rescission in response to a foreclosure,
[01:09:14.320 --> 01:09:18.320]  and it's a principal dwelling of an obligor or the homeowner,
[01:09:18.320 --> 01:09:22.320]  the tolerance for errors in the finance charge is only $35.
[01:09:22.320 --> 01:09:27.320]  But again, how do you prove that without somebody actually being able to,
[01:09:27.320 --> 01:09:32.320]  you know, read those documents, compare what was given on the truth in
[01:09:32.320 --> 01:09:37.320]  lending statement or the HUD 1 with the actual note and deed of trust.
[01:09:37.320 --> 01:09:41.320]  So it appears to me that from Randy's program, he's able to actually prove
[01:09:41.320 --> 01:09:46.320]  to the banks and banks' attorneys that he has the wherewithal to calculate
[01:09:46.320 --> 01:09:49.320]  this and that it's a slam dunk case.
[01:09:49.320 --> 01:09:54.320]  And in California, I don't know how it is there, but just filing a suit does
[01:09:54.320 --> 01:10:00.320]  not stop a foreclosure because we're a nonjudicial state.
[01:10:00.320 --> 01:10:04.320]  I'm also licensed to practice in New York, which is a judicial state,
[01:10:04.320 --> 01:10:09.320]  and I practice up in Washington state, which is nonjudicial.
[01:10:09.320 --> 01:10:13.320]  So in the nonjudicial states, the banks just go ahead with their foreclosures,
[01:10:13.320 --> 01:10:16.320]  and you have to do something to get them to stop.
[01:10:16.320 --> 01:10:21.320]  And that either has to be a bankruptcy to get an automatic stay,
[01:10:21.320 --> 01:10:26.320]  or it has to be a lawsuit actually that's filed in state or federal court.
[01:10:26.320 --> 01:10:30.320]  And you have to make these allegations if there's TILA violations, RESPA violations.
[01:10:30.320 --> 01:10:32.320]  I've got about 17 or 18.
[01:10:32.320 --> 01:10:37.320]  I think Randy gave me a couple more today, causes of action that you can bring.
[01:10:37.320 --> 01:10:45.320]  But this one that I think might work best to get a slam dunk case in order to
[01:10:45.320 --> 01:10:49.320]  get a preliminary injunction is what he's able to prove,
[01:10:49.320 --> 01:10:54.320]  which is the TILA and RESPA violations based on the numbers.
[01:10:54.320 --> 01:10:57.320]  Now, what I mean by just a preliminary injunction,
[01:10:57.320 --> 01:11:00.320]  which is absolutely essential to stop the foreclosures,
[01:11:00.320 --> 01:11:06.320]  you have to prove not only that there's hardship in balancing the interests
[01:11:06.320 --> 01:11:08.320]  that the homeowner is going to suffer more.
[01:11:08.320 --> 01:11:10.320]  Nobody can test that.
[01:11:10.320 --> 01:11:16.320]  But when it comes down to proving to the judge or demonstrating that the
[01:11:16.320 --> 01:11:22.320]  likelihood is that the plaintiff, homeowner, is likely to succeed on the merits,
[01:11:22.320 --> 01:11:25.320]  that's where everybody falls down.
[01:11:25.320 --> 01:11:30.320]  They're just not able to actually prove that in a temporary restraining order
[01:11:30.320 --> 01:11:32.320]  hearing or preliminary injunction hearing.
[01:11:32.320 --> 01:11:33.320]  I take it back.
[01:11:33.320 --> 01:11:38.320]  You can actually generally get the temporary restraining order without much problem.
[01:11:38.320 --> 01:11:41.320]  But when you get to the preliminary injunction hearing,
[01:11:41.320 --> 01:11:46.320]  that's what you have to prove, that you have a likelihood of succeeding on the merits.
[01:11:46.320 --> 01:11:49.320]  And so when you've got general broad allegations, we don't have that.
[01:11:49.320 --> 01:11:54.320]  But if you can have a specific allegation as to like in this case,
[01:11:54.320 --> 01:11:59.320]  you know, the loan varied from what was shown.
[01:11:59.320 --> 01:12:00.320]  Is that correct?
[01:12:00.320 --> 01:12:03.320]  Am I representing your program correctly?
[01:12:03.320 --> 01:12:04.320]  Exactly.
[01:12:04.320 --> 01:12:14.320]  And on making these allegations, the lenders have been doing the same things
[01:12:14.320 --> 01:12:18.320]  to everybody that they did business with.
[01:12:18.320 --> 01:12:23.320]  And the problem is when you're looking at fraud,
[01:12:23.320 --> 01:12:27.320]  it doesn't have to be a major amount of fraud.
[01:12:27.320 --> 01:12:35.320]  And anyone who looks at their HUD-1 settlement statement will find at least one fee
[01:12:35.320 --> 01:12:40.320]  on the HUD-1 settlement statement that's not authorized by the
[01:12:40.320 --> 01:12:44.320]  Bill of State Settlement Procedures Act and Truth in Lending Act.
[01:12:44.320 --> 01:12:49.320]  The lender may only charge those fees the borrower would have to pay
[01:12:49.320 --> 01:12:54.320]  if he purchased in cash or those fees he has to pay to a third-party vendor.
[01:12:54.320 --> 01:12:59.320]  How does he explain an administration fee paid to the lender?
[01:12:59.320 --> 01:13:05.320]  It's right there on HUD-1 or a processing fee, document preparation fee.
[01:13:05.320 --> 01:13:12.320]  They've got this whole series of junk fees that the lenders started out.
[01:13:12.320 --> 01:13:16.320]  Some time ago, they would sneak one in and then another one in.
[01:13:16.320 --> 01:13:18.320]  Nobody caught it.
[01:13:18.320 --> 01:13:21.320]  Nobody raised a stink about it.
[01:13:21.320 --> 01:13:23.320]  And then they add another one and another one.
[01:13:23.320 --> 01:13:31.320]  And as the bubble increased and the frenzy was on, they added more and more,
[01:13:31.320 --> 01:13:35.320]  and they got more and more creative.
[01:13:35.320 --> 01:13:41.320]  I have yet to see a single HUD-1 statement that didn't have
[01:13:41.320 --> 01:13:44.320]  at least one of these junk fees.
[01:13:44.320 --> 01:13:48.320]  One junk fee is enough.
[01:13:48.320 --> 01:13:54.320]  You take $100, $150 and add it to the principal.
[01:13:54.320 --> 01:14:00.320]  That $100 or $150 will be the last dollar you pay off,
[01:14:00.320 --> 01:14:05.320]  so you can figure you're going to pay interest on that $100 or $150
[01:14:05.320 --> 01:14:08.320]  for the full 30 years.
[01:14:08.320 --> 01:14:12.320]  So simply calculate the interest and not just the interest,
[01:14:12.320 --> 01:14:18.320]  but it compounds because you pay interest on it
[01:14:18.320 --> 01:14:21.320]  and you pay the same amount of payments every month.
[01:14:21.320 --> 01:14:27.320]  And if there's an extra payment, less of your payment is principal
[01:14:27.320 --> 01:14:30.320]  and more is interest.
[01:14:30.320 --> 01:14:33.320]  So the next month, that principal that should come off is still there
[01:14:33.320 --> 01:14:36.320]  and you pay more interest on it.
[01:14:36.320 --> 01:14:39.320]  It's surprising how much it adds up.
[01:14:39.320 --> 01:14:44.320]  I did a $100,000 note at 10% interest,
[01:14:44.320 --> 01:14:51.320]  and there was a $5,000 extra payment or extra charge,
[01:14:51.320 --> 01:14:57.320]  and it amounted to almost $90,000 across the face of the note,
[01:14:57.320 --> 01:15:02.320]  the difference that he would have paid over the life of the note.
[01:15:02.320 --> 01:15:07.320]  So when you're calling this fraud and then tripling it,
[01:15:07.320 --> 01:15:10.320]  that's a pretty substantial number.
[01:15:10.320 --> 01:15:18.320]  That should be enough to get the court's attention.
[01:15:18.320 --> 01:15:24.320]  Okay, so I guess since you're in Texas, I understand, or maybe it's nationwide,
[01:15:24.320 --> 01:15:28.320]  I thought maybe I could just share a little bit about one of the ways
[01:15:28.320 --> 01:15:32.320]  that you can do this is bring it into bankruptcy court
[01:15:32.320 --> 01:15:36.320]  if you have people who are actually facing foreclosures right now.
[01:15:36.320 --> 01:15:40.320]  And in California and many of the other states, they get a notice of default,
[01:15:40.320 --> 01:15:43.320]  and then 90 days later they get a notice of sale.
[01:15:43.320 --> 01:15:48.320]  So if you're at that stage, you probably need to, well, do a bunch of different things.
[01:15:48.320 --> 01:15:54.320]  One of the things I recommend is you can do your qualified written requests
[01:15:54.320 --> 01:15:58.320]  and you do debt validations, you ask them for a note.
[01:15:58.320 --> 01:16:01.320]  But in California, just asking for the note has not worked.
[01:16:01.320 --> 01:16:06.320]  As a matter of fact, the court in the Ninth Circuit has said that, you know,
[01:16:06.320 --> 01:16:10.320]  under the Pettkury case that they don't have to produce the note.
[01:16:10.320 --> 01:16:17.320]  But if you file a bankruptcy case, the TILA rescission can be raised
[01:16:17.320 --> 01:16:22.320]  as an adversary proceeding to challenge the validity of the creditor's
[01:16:22.320 --> 01:16:25.320]  or the bank's proof of claim.
[01:16:25.320 --> 01:16:29.320]  Furthermore, the rescission can be used as a defense,
[01:16:29.320 --> 01:16:36.320]  which can be raised in contesting any motion for relief from the stay
[01:16:36.320 --> 01:16:39.320]  which the lender files.
[01:16:39.320 --> 01:16:43.320]  So the lender, if you file a bankruptcy and get an automatic stay,
[01:16:43.320 --> 01:16:45.320]  the lender's going to come in and say,
[01:16:45.320 --> 01:16:48.320]  well, we don't think that there's any equity in the property
[01:16:48.320 --> 01:16:51.320]  and we want a relief from the stay, there's no equity.
[01:16:51.320 --> 01:16:52.320]  Okay.
[01:16:52.320 --> 01:16:54.320]  We'll finish this on the other side.
[01:16:54.320 --> 01:17:00.320]  This is Randy Kelton, Deborah Stevens, Eddie Craig, Wheel of Life Radio.

[01:18:21.320 --> 01:18:26.320]  Ain't gonna fool me with that same old trick again.
[01:18:26.320 --> 01:18:31.320]  I was blindsided, but now I can see your plans
[01:18:31.320 --> 01:18:36.320]  You put the beer in my pocket, took the money from my hand
[01:18:36.320 --> 01:18:41.320]  Ain't gonna fool me with that same old trick again
[01:18:41.320 --> 01:18:56.320]  Ain't gonna fool me with that same old trick again
[01:18:56.320 --> 01:19:06.320]  You put the beer in my pocket, took the money from my hand
[01:19:26.320 --> 01:19:32.320]  Ain't gonna fool me with that same old trick again
[01:19:56.320 --> 01:20:02.320]  You put the beer in my pocket, took the money from my hand
[01:20:02.320 --> 01:20:12.320]  You put the beer in my pocket, took the money from my hand
[01:20:32.320 --> 01:20:42.320]  You put the beer in my pocket, took the money from my hand
[01:21:02.320 --> 01:21:12.320]  You put the beer in my pocket, took the money from my hand
[01:21:32.320 --> 01:21:42.320]  You put the beer in my pocket, took the money from my hand
[01:22:02.320 --> 01:22:05.320]  Yes, but ma'am
[01:22:32.320 --> 01:22:42.320]  You put the beer in my pocket, took the money from my hand
[01:23:02.320 --> 01:23:12.320]  You put the beer in my pocket, took the money from my hand
[01:23:32.320 --> 01:23:42.320]  You put the beer in my pocket, took the money from my hand
[01:24:02.320 --> 01:24:12.320]  You put the beer in my pocket, took the money from my hand
[01:24:32.320 --> 01:24:42.320]  You put the beer in my pocket, took the money from my hand
[01:25:02.320 --> 01:25:12.320]  I don't know why you need to be in bankruptcy. If you've got a really, really good case, it seems like you might want to go to state or federal court and sue there so you can keep your money damages.
[01:25:12.320 --> 01:25:17.320]  Can't I do the same thing in federal court bankruptcy?
[01:25:17.320 --> 01:25:32.320]  Well you can, but the problem is that in bankruptcy, the purpose allegedly of filing bankruptcy is to stop creditors from coming after you because you're insolvent. You've got more debts than you do have assets.
[01:25:32.320 --> 01:25:42.320]  So the problem is that the trustee is actually, she becomes in control and the owner of all your assets that are not part of the exemptions.
[01:25:42.320 --> 01:25:57.320]  And in California anyhow, we have two sets of exemptions, one that's homeowners exemption if you have property, and then there's the other wild card exemption they call it, which is the larger cash amount that you can get if you're not worried about getting a homeowner exemption.
[01:25:57.320 --> 01:26:24.320]  So you've got to look at those exemptions, but if you've got like a lawsuit that's going to give you hundreds of thousands of whatever amount of money you can get for damages, you might want to think about not having to deal with the bankruptcy court because actually the trustee is entitled to keep whatever amounts of money that you own, whatever assets you have.
[01:26:24.320 --> 01:26:27.320]  That's a good point.
[01:26:27.320 --> 01:26:32.320]  So he could take whatever you win in the suit and distribute it to other creditors.
[01:26:32.320 --> 01:26:33.320]  Yes.
[01:26:33.320 --> 01:26:47.320]  Okay, now I have a question for Randy real quick. Randy, I don't think you're going to go to jail on the 8th, I think, because I'm praying because you haven't sent me that email. I'm praying hard you don't go to jail. Don't worry about that.
[01:26:47.320 --> 01:26:57.320]  I'm praying too, so that's if two or more agree is touching anything on earth, right? Well, the jailers, the jailers in Austin recognize me now.
[01:26:57.320 --> 01:27:00.320]  Oh, you're here again. Yeah.
[01:27:00.320 --> 01:27:08.320]  The last time I told them, I hope the room service is better this time. Yeah, yeah, and they changed the curtains. I know that.
[01:27:08.320 --> 01:27:19.320]  Well, I'll agree with you for that prayer, Carlos, because we need Randy right now and what he's doing. It's really essential. It's so important. He has to send me an email. He has to send me. So I got nervous when he said he was going to go to jail.
[01:27:19.320 --> 01:27:21.320]  Yeah, me too.
[01:27:21.320 --> 01:27:26.320]  Thanks for everything and don't forget about me, Randy. Thank you.
[01:27:26.320 --> 01:27:29.320]  You are welcome.
[01:27:29.320 --> 01:27:42.320]  Okay, folks, we don't have any callers on the board right now. So, ladies and gentlemen out there, folks, if you'd like to call in and ask us a question, the call in number is 512-646-1984.

[01:28:53.320 --> 01:29:02.320]  Yes, and I'm glad you mentioned grand juries because we're developing a strategy in that regard.
[01:29:02.320 --> 01:29:20.320]  Primarily, we've been going after the lenders through contract claims, but they use dirty tricks and they use their clout with the courts to overpower us for mistreated proceeds.
[01:29:20.320 --> 01:29:24.320]  So we come up with a plan to fight back.
[01:29:24.320 --> 01:29:30.320]  California has one of the best grand jury systems that I've seen anywhere.
[01:29:30.320 --> 01:29:34.320]  And they have powers and abilities beyond those of normal grand juries.
[01:29:34.320 --> 01:29:47.320]  And we're about to go to break. When I come back on the other side, I'll explain our strategy for using the grand jury system to help the lender have a good reason to play Let's Make a Deal.
[01:29:47.320 --> 01:29:51.320]  All right. And we've got some callers in line too. Sorry. Go ahead, Randy.
[01:29:51.320 --> 01:30:00.320]  Okay. We'll be right back on the other side.
[01:30:00.320 --> 01:30:05.320]  Are you being harassed by debt collectors with phone calls, letters or even lawsuits?

[01:31:52.320 --> 01:31:54.320]  We've got Mark from Wisconsin.
[01:31:54.320 --> 01:31:55.320]  Mark, thanks for calling in.
[01:31:55.320 --> 01:31:58.320]  What's on your mind tonight?
[01:31:58.320 --> 01:32:01.320]  I had a question for the attorney.
[01:32:01.320 --> 01:32:03.320]  You're not offering legal advice, are you?
[01:32:03.320 --> 01:32:10.320]  You're just talking about things that you would do should you be similarly situated, is that correct?
[01:32:10.320 --> 01:32:23.320]  Well, I'm only licensed to practice law in California, Washington, and New York, so for the New York caller, I actually was trying to advise him as to what I thought he should do.
[01:32:23.320 --> 01:32:31.320]  I'm not trying to give you legal advice because you're not in one of those states where I'm licensed, but how can I help you?
[01:32:31.320 --> 01:32:36.320]  Oh, I was just trying to bait you into giving a disclaimer for your own protection.
[01:32:36.320 --> 01:32:39.320]  Oh, okay. Well, thank you. I appreciate that.
[01:32:39.320 --> 01:32:48.320]  Actually, she's okay anyway because you have to take money for it or it doesn't count.
[01:32:48.320 --> 01:32:54.320]  Anyway, I'm just down here for educational purposes and entertainment.
[01:32:54.320 --> 01:32:59.320]  What's the difference between a lady lawyer and a pit bull?
[01:32:59.320 --> 01:33:01.320]  I'm not biting.
[01:33:01.320 --> 01:33:07.320]  The answer is lipstick, so I've given you some entertainment and a little bit of education, and I'm not giving legal advice to anybody.
[01:33:07.320 --> 01:33:09.320]  That's fair. That's good.
[01:33:09.320 --> 01:33:18.320]  You have no idea how appropriate that was. Mark is always coming up with lawyer jokes, and he just got chumped.
[01:33:18.320 --> 01:33:25.320]  How does it feel, Mark, to get chumped by a real lawyer?
[01:33:25.320 --> 01:33:38.320]  Hey, Randy, I just had a judge rule on the sanctions. He denied them, and he said okay for the judicial determination,
[01:33:38.320 --> 01:33:45.320]  so the case is going to go forward there, but I wasn't even able to set it for motion, and he's already ruled.
[01:33:45.320 --> 01:33:55.320]  I can tell by the way his clerk's been talking to me and the wording in his motion that there's been some sort of ex parte communication.
[01:33:55.320 --> 01:34:02.320]  I'm not planning on having a fit over it because I want the case to go forward, but what do you generally do in a situation
[01:34:02.320 --> 01:34:11.320]  if this was a critical point that you needed to have that motion ruled on in court to have a real hearing?
[01:34:11.320 --> 01:34:23.320]  If I had reason to believe that there was ex parte communication, I would move to disqualify the judge for cause.
[01:34:23.320 --> 01:34:31.320]  I would prepare criminal accusations against the judge and the attorney and go wave it in front of the district attorney,
[01:34:31.320 --> 01:34:40.320]  and when he refused to take it, jump up and down on the district attorney and see how much annoyance I could cause them all.
[01:34:40.320 --> 01:34:49.320]  At the very least, it would keep them from pulling any nonsense like that in the future.
[01:34:49.320 --> 01:35:00.320]  This is what we're looking at in setting up this lawsuit. My focus is due process,
[01:35:00.320 --> 01:35:10.320]  so I'm looking at what these scoundrels are doing when they come into court and claim to be something they're not,
[01:35:10.320 --> 01:35:17.320]  or have an ex parte communication with the judge. I consider that stuff criminal.
[01:35:17.320 --> 01:35:25.320]  So why should we just stay in the civil side when they're apparently committing criminal acts?
[01:35:25.320 --> 01:35:33.320]  Let's go after them whole hog. Did you have any other questions, Mark?
[01:35:33.320 --> 01:35:35.320]  Mark, you there?
[01:35:35.320 --> 01:35:43.320]  Yeah, I had one more question. What do you call that motion where you ask for the attorney's,
[01:35:43.320 --> 01:35:47.320]  if he's got his application to practice in federal court?
[01:35:47.320 --> 01:35:56.320]  A Rule 12. Oh, application to file in a move. It challenged the agency of the attorney.
[01:35:56.320 --> 01:36:06.320]  Actually, attorneys are required to be on the federal court registry, so to speak, in every county they practice in.
[01:36:06.320 --> 01:36:13.320]  So I'm, for example, I am registered down in San Diego, and I paid $185 to do that,
[01:36:13.320 --> 01:36:20.320]  and they require now that you file electronically, so you have to take a class to learn how to do the electronic filing and PACER.
[01:36:20.320 --> 01:36:29.320]  But I have needs now, and I've got clients who are up in various different counties, Orange County, L.A., San Francisco,
[01:36:29.320 --> 01:36:37.320]  that you can either go in pro per, I'm sorry, in pro se, no, I'm sorry, pro hoc vici, forgive me.
[01:36:37.320 --> 01:36:44.320]  Pro hoc vici means for this case only. So I have a choice between either going into like Orange County,
[01:36:44.320 --> 01:36:52.320]  paying my $185, taking their course, or I can associate with an attorney up in another county.
[01:36:52.320 --> 01:37:00.320]  So how would you, if you suspect that the attorney hasn't met the requirements, how would you make that challenge?
[01:37:00.320 --> 01:37:10.320]  Yeah, you could just, you know, move that this attorney is not licensed to practice law in this particular jurisdiction.
[01:37:10.320 --> 01:37:19.320]  I mean, I shouldn't say, maybe it's not, that's maybe not the correct way to say it, because as I understand it, the bar cards,
[01:37:19.320 --> 01:37:25.320]  I mean, I've only really recently learned that bar means British Accreditation Registry,
[01:37:25.320 --> 01:37:30.320]  and I've only recently been told that we don't have licenses, we just have a bar card.
[01:37:30.320 --> 01:37:35.320]  I became an attorney back in New York, you know, 35 years ago, and it was before I got saved.
[01:37:35.320 --> 01:37:39.320]  I mean, I have like all kinds of people who can't stand attorneys.
[01:37:39.320 --> 01:37:48.320]  But I think your license to practice law or bar card and to practice in the state, but in federal court, as you said,
[01:37:48.320 --> 01:37:54.320]  I think you could definitely challenge, I don't even know what the wording is, but challenge their right to be in this court
[01:37:54.320 --> 01:37:59.320]  in that they have not, you know, registered with that court.
[01:37:59.320 --> 01:38:07.320]  They haven't paid their money and they haven't taken the course to be able to be, actually you get a certificate,
[01:38:07.320 --> 01:38:10.320]  to be able to certify them.
[01:38:10.320 --> 01:38:17.320]  I got a certificate that shows that I'm able to practice in, you know, San Diego.
[01:38:17.320 --> 01:38:19.320]  Yeah, that's not a challenge to agency.
[01:38:19.320 --> 01:38:25.320]  That's what I thought you were going for at first, but it's actually a challenge to, would that be capacity?
[01:38:25.320 --> 01:38:27.320]  Yeah, it could be.
[01:38:27.320 --> 01:38:30.320]  It's a challenge to the capacity of the attorney to stand before the court.
[01:38:30.320 --> 01:38:33.320]  Yes, I think that's a good point.
[01:38:33.320 --> 01:38:42.320]  Okay, Brandy, and in some of these FDCPA cases, what you want to do is get them to burn up as much money as you can.
[01:38:42.320 --> 01:38:50.320]  What other motions, if someone was tricky, would they file for the attorney just to add more time on the clock
[01:38:50.320 --> 01:38:52.320]  so he can charge his client for that?
[01:38:52.320 --> 01:38:55.320]  Agency and what was that you just said?
[01:38:55.320 --> 01:39:01.320]  Well, yeah, agency, subject matter, I mean, agency standing capacity.
[01:39:01.320 --> 01:39:11.320]  In this case, if you're challenging whether the attorney is authorized to stand in the court,
[01:39:11.320 --> 01:39:13.320]  you challenge capacity.
[01:39:13.320 --> 01:39:21.320]  If you suspect that the attorney doesn't have a contract with his client, you challenge agency.
[01:39:21.320 --> 01:39:28.320]  And in our suit, that's one of the tricks, one of the traps we have laid for the attorneys
[01:39:28.320 --> 01:39:34.320]  because a lot of times these attorneys find these foreclosures and just pick them up and run with them.
[01:39:34.320 --> 01:39:40.320]  And if they get a positive result, then the bank pays them a commission.
[01:39:40.320 --> 01:39:49.320]  So if you get an answer, then you don't get the no answer default.
[01:39:49.320 --> 01:39:54.320]  And almost invariably when we get an answer, we get a Rule 12.
[01:39:54.320 --> 01:39:58.320]  And when we get to Rule 12, then we come back and sue the attorney.
[01:39:58.320 --> 01:40:04.320]  And if we don't get rid of him that way or if they hire a new counsel, we come back in the court.
[01:40:04.320 --> 01:40:10.320]  The first thing we do is a Rule 12 challenge, demand that he show agency.
[01:40:10.320 --> 01:40:15.320]  Steve just did that recently and the judge asked the attorney in court,
[01:40:15.320 --> 01:40:18.320]  do you have a written contract with your client?
[01:40:18.320 --> 01:40:22.320]  The attorney ducked his head and said, no, Your Honor.
[01:40:22.320 --> 01:40:24.320]  And Steve missed it.
[01:40:24.320 --> 01:40:26.320]  He was looking up case law.
[01:40:26.320 --> 01:40:30.320]  He should have said move for directed verdict.
[01:40:30.320 --> 01:40:35.320]  He had moved to strike the pleadings, move for no answer default.
[01:40:35.320 --> 01:40:39.320]  So we actually are trying to set them up for that.
[01:40:39.320 --> 01:40:45.320]  We're not going to let them know we're going for that until we've tried the, went for the no answer default.
[01:40:45.320 --> 01:40:52.320]  And then if they answer, then we try to pull the Rule 12 and then sue the attorney and go after them that way.
[01:40:52.320 --> 01:40:58.320]  And then the third shot at them is the Rule 12 challenge.
[01:40:58.320 --> 01:41:03.320]  Okay, so you're saying it's probably better to ask for agency after they've answered the complaint?
[01:41:03.320 --> 01:41:11.320]  In general, the banks are using special appearance attorneys who do not have any relationship with the client.
[01:41:11.320 --> 01:41:12.320]  Hey, wait, wait, one second, one second.
[01:41:12.320 --> 01:41:18.320]  Diane, can you get a little bit closer to the mic or Randy, you may need to turn her up because she sounds like she's kind of far away.
[01:41:18.320 --> 01:41:19.320]  Yes.
[01:41:19.320 --> 01:41:20.320]  Okay, that's much better.
[01:41:20.320 --> 01:41:21.320]  Thank you.
[01:41:21.320 --> 01:41:27.320]  Most of the banks are using special appearance attorneys who do not have any relationship with the client.
[01:41:27.320 --> 01:41:32.320]  But see, it's the banks that are the defendants.
[01:41:32.320 --> 01:41:39.320]  And so in general, I think most of the banks have hired these like large, large law firms.
[01:41:39.320 --> 01:41:45.320]  And then the attorneys from the large law firm farm it out to special appearance attorneys.
[01:41:45.320 --> 01:41:47.320]  So I haven't tried that argument.
[01:41:47.320 --> 01:41:52.320]  But I'll tell you what is very, very interesting is if you get into unlawful detainers,
[01:41:52.320 --> 01:42:01.320]  most of the verifications on these unlawful detainer claims or complaints are signed by the attorneys.
[01:42:01.320 --> 01:42:08.320]  So you do, you know, if you want to do a deposition against them and challenge them, it's like, you know, did you work for the bank at this time?
[01:42:08.320 --> 01:42:17.320]  I mean, how is it that you had firsthand knowledge to be able to testify that these facts are true, that you are an incredible witness?
[01:42:17.320 --> 01:42:27.320]  And so I did get a hearing postponed for like 30 days so that the bank could try and locate somebody who could testify, you know,
[01:42:27.320 --> 01:42:31.320]  so that the attorney could find somebody from the bank who could testify.
[01:42:31.320 --> 01:42:41.320]  And I made them bring in the actual, you know, bank employee and then a special so-called expert witness.
[01:42:41.320 --> 01:42:43.320]  And they had to qualify all these people.
[01:42:43.320 --> 01:42:44.320]  They're not used to doing that.
[01:42:44.320 --> 01:42:52.320]  They're used to improper people who just let it go because the attorneys are actually testifying as though they are the plaintiff.
[01:42:52.320 --> 01:42:55.320]  They're testifying as to the facts and the veracity of the facts.
[01:42:55.320 --> 01:42:57.320]  And they're not allowed to.
[01:42:57.320 --> 01:43:04.320]  They have no right doing the verifications and no right testifying in court without their client.
[01:43:04.320 --> 01:43:06.320]  We call that testifying.
[01:43:06.320 --> 01:43:08.320]  Thanks a lot. Bye-bye.
[01:43:08.320 --> 01:43:13.320]  That should get a motion for sanctions against counsel.
[01:43:13.320 --> 01:43:22.320]  So if the attorney verifies, what is the attorney verifying?
[01:43:22.320 --> 01:43:26.320]  Oh, they have firsthand knowledge on this information.
[01:43:26.320 --> 01:43:29.320]  For example, as an unlawful detainer in California anyhow,
[01:43:29.320 --> 01:43:35.320]  they have to prove that the person is in default, that a notice of default has been filed,
[01:43:35.320 --> 01:43:45.320]  that all the procedures under, I think, 2943 have been followed correctly to do, you know, a lawful foreclosure proceeding.
[01:43:45.320 --> 01:43:52.320]  They have to show that there is the notice of sale that has been, you know, sent to the borrower.
[01:43:52.320 --> 01:43:54.320]  Okay, folks, listen, we're about to go to break.
[01:43:54.320 --> 01:43:55.320]  Sorry to cut you off, Diane.
[01:43:55.320 --> 01:44:06.320]  We will be right back on the other side, folks.

[01:46:43.320 --> 01:47:10.320]  As we so, so shall we read the words of nutrition from so many fruits, the words can put on our body.
[01:47:10.320 --> 01:47:32.320]  As we so, so shall we read.
[01:47:32.320 --> 01:47:52.320]  As we so, so shall we read the words of nutrition from so many fruits, the words can put on our body.
[01:47:52.320 --> 01:48:18.320]  Well, I'd like to bring Eddie out of the woodwork a little bit if I could. My wife got a traffic citation for speeding, and when I went to court with her, I asked the judge what kind of court it was, whether it was equity or admiralty or civil or criminal or whatever, and she ended up telling me it was quasi-judicial, which means administrative I guess.
[01:48:18.320 --> 01:48:24.320]  Yeah, I would like to see where the definition of quasi-judicial exists in Texas law.
[01:48:24.320 --> 01:48:26.320]  Well, I'm in New York.
[01:48:26.320 --> 01:48:28.320]  Well, in New York either for that matter.
[01:48:28.320 --> 01:48:32.320]  Okay. Quasi means life, but not.
[01:48:32.320 --> 01:48:38.320]  I think what they consider it is it's between criminal and administrative.
[01:48:38.320 --> 01:48:44.320]  Okay. Well, the ticket I have says local criminal court.
[01:48:44.320 --> 01:48:46.320]  Yep.
[01:48:46.320 --> 01:48:48.320]  I believe the court's administrative.
[01:48:48.320 --> 01:48:50.320]  Yes.
[01:48:50.320 --> 01:48:54.320]  So they can,
[01:48:54.320 --> 01:49:00.320]  It's what they call an infraction rather than a misdemeanor or a felony.
[01:49:00.320 --> 01:49:02.320]  I'm sorry to hear that.
[01:49:02.320 --> 01:49:09.320]  They call it an infraction, like a violation, an infraction, not a misdemeanor or a felony.
[01:49:09.320 --> 01:49:11.320]  No.
[01:49:11.320 --> 01:49:16.320]  So to be purely criminal, it would have to be a misdemeanor.
[01:49:16.320 --> 01:49:18.320]  A misdemeanor or a felony.
[01:49:18.320 --> 01:49:21.320]  What it says, local criminal court right on the face of the ticket.
[01:49:21.320 --> 01:49:23.320]  Yes.
[01:49:23.320 --> 01:49:26.320]  Well, it's quasi-criminal.
[01:49:26.320 --> 01:49:29.320]  It's kind of criminal, but not so criminal.
[01:49:29.320 --> 01:49:34.320]  I take it it's not so criminal that you can get prison time.
[01:49:34.320 --> 01:49:37.320]  Just you can get beat up and charged a little money.
[01:49:37.320 --> 01:49:41.320]  Can I pay for it with quasi-federal reserve notes?
[01:49:41.320 --> 01:49:52.320]  Yeah, maybe you could have a quasi, you know, kind of a surrogate go in your place to jail too, you know, like a mannequin or something.
[01:49:52.320 --> 01:49:57.320]  I'm starting to get into this quasi-judicial system thing.
[01:49:57.320 --> 01:50:04.320]  Yeah, just take federal reserve notes and copy just one side of it.
[01:50:04.320 --> 01:50:06.320]  That's what I would do.
[01:50:06.320 --> 01:50:11.320]  Where they get into the criminal, if you don't mind me saying one thing.
[01:50:11.320 --> 01:50:21.320]  I was in court on Monday all day, all day long, and it was somebody who had been trapped and stopped for no probable cause.
[01:50:21.320 --> 01:50:23.320]  The police stopped him.
[01:50:23.320 --> 01:50:32.320]  And the person who was trying to help a woman who was being threatened by her boyfriend and he had taken her car, et cetera, he said to the officer,
[01:50:32.320 --> 01:50:37.320]  he said, I've got a loaded gun in my back seat.
[01:50:37.320 --> 01:50:42.320]  It's registered, but I have it there for her protection, for my protection.
[01:50:42.320 --> 01:50:44.320]  And, you know, it's in the back seat.
[01:50:44.320 --> 01:50:56.320]  So the police officer then called all kinds of backup, like 10, 12 police officers came and they arrested him then for a crime, which is carrying misdemeanor and unregistered,
[01:50:56.320 --> 01:51:04.320]  which, you know, could be challenged on constitutional grounds because according to the Second Amendment, we have a right to keep and bear arms.
[01:51:04.320 --> 01:51:10.320]  And he was doing it not only that force, you know, he was doing it for third party defense and his own defense.
[01:51:10.320 --> 01:51:13.320]  Nevertheless, they charged him with that.
[01:51:13.320 --> 01:51:18.320]  At that point, they also asked him for his registration, his driver's license and insurance.
[01:51:18.320 --> 01:51:19.320]  He didn't have that.
[01:51:19.320 --> 01:51:29.320]  So they cited him for the misdemeanor of carrying a gun, but then they also did these so-called quasi complaints in fractions.
[01:51:29.320 --> 01:51:40.320]  So anyway, then what happened is that he showed up at trial all prepared with his defense and the district attorney was not prepared.
[01:51:40.320 --> 01:51:44.320]  So the district attorney said, you know, we need some more time.
[01:51:44.320 --> 01:51:50.320]  The judge said, well, come back and he said, no, we'll get a hold of you for the next trial date.
[01:51:50.320 --> 01:51:54.320]  And if we don't hear from us in 10 days, then we'll dismiss the case.
[01:51:54.320 --> 01:51:56.320]  That's what he heard and his father heard.
[01:51:56.320 --> 01:52:07.320]  And what happened is that they went ahead in seven days and had trial, you know, defaulted him, so to speak, but they call it in criminal cases a failure to appear.
[01:52:07.320 --> 01:52:12.320]  So he's had this outstanding warrant for failure to appear.
[01:52:12.320 --> 01:52:15.320]  So they should go after the judge.
[01:52:15.320 --> 01:52:16.320]  Yes.
[01:52:16.320 --> 01:52:20.320]  I don't know what the charge would be.
[01:52:20.320 --> 01:52:22.320]  This is California?
[01:52:22.320 --> 01:52:22.320]  Yes.
[01:52:22.320 --> 01:52:23.320]  New York.
[01:52:23.320 --> 01:52:24.320]  I'm sorry.
[01:52:24.320 --> 01:52:26.320]  I was talking about a California case.
[01:52:26.320 --> 01:52:27.320]  Yes, she's in California.
[01:52:27.320 --> 01:52:29.320]  But it's pretty much the same.
[01:52:29.320 --> 01:52:30.320]  You've got failure.
[01:52:30.320 --> 01:52:32.320]  I'm licensed to practice in New York.
[01:52:32.320 --> 01:52:41.320]  That's where I went to law school and they have the same laws about traffic and failures to appear and misdemeanors for not showing up at court.
[01:52:41.320 --> 01:52:44.320]  That's a criminal penalty.
[01:52:44.320 --> 01:52:46.320]  Yeah, that should be filed with a grand jury.
[01:52:46.320 --> 01:52:51.320]  We have a great grand jury here in California.
[01:52:51.320 --> 01:53:08.320]  The grand juries in California are as grand juries were intended to be in that a grand jury in California could not only examine into criminal accusations, they can essentially examine into anything they want to.
[01:53:08.320 --> 01:53:13.320]  They routinely examine into government contracts.
[01:53:13.320 --> 01:53:17.320]  And this is what I do.
[01:53:17.320 --> 01:53:19.320]  I want to go after public officials.
[01:53:19.320 --> 01:53:34.320]  It's my position that if a public official violates a law relating to his office and denies a citizen full and free access to or enjoyment of a right, that's a crime and he belongs in prison, especially if it's a judge, because it's been my experience.
[01:53:34.320 --> 01:53:40.320]  You start going after the judges, you get everybody's attention.
[01:53:40.320 --> 01:53:50.320]  And what happened is that the district attorney offered us a plea of 20 days doing Caltrans public service.
[01:53:50.320 --> 01:54:11.320]  And my client did not he was willing to do the he had a big problem with accepting what they call informal probation, which would have required him to agree that he would submit himself to searches and seizures by the police and to drug tests, etc.
[01:54:11.320 --> 01:54:14.320]  So he did not want to agree to those two terms.
[01:54:14.320 --> 01:54:16.320]  So he refused to take the plea.
[01:54:16.320 --> 01:54:18.320]  And then the judge just totally turned on us.
[01:54:18.320 --> 01:54:22.320]  The district attorney left the court at three o'clock.
[01:54:22.320 --> 01:54:24.320]  The judge left at three thirty.
[01:54:24.320 --> 01:54:27.320]  When I tried to say something to the judge, she says the district attorney is gone.
[01:54:27.320 --> 01:54:31.320]  The warrant is still there.
[01:54:31.320 --> 01:54:42.320]  And your clients, you know, in a situation where he's in a failure to appear with a misdemeanor against him for that.
[01:54:42.320 --> 01:54:44.320]  Was your client in the court?
[01:54:44.320 --> 01:54:47.320]  No, my client wouldn't go to he wouldn't go into the court.
[01:54:47.320 --> 01:54:48.320]  He was afraid.
[01:54:48.320 --> 01:54:50.320]  That's why he asked me to go in.
[01:54:50.320 --> 01:54:57.320]  He was afraid to go in because he doesn't have any faith or trust in the judicial system.
[01:54:57.320 --> 01:54:59.320]  With good reason.
[01:54:59.320 --> 01:55:06.320]  Yes, he was afraid that they would just do whatever they could to just put him in jail.
[01:55:06.320 --> 01:55:13.320]  So this is where I get to the only remedy I can find is a grand jury.
[01:55:13.320 --> 01:55:19.320]  And really doesn't matter whether you get to the grand jury or not.
[01:55:19.320 --> 01:55:27.320]  When you start making grand jury noises and I have a routine that I go through to make grand jury noises.
[01:55:27.320 --> 01:55:34.320]  I go down and try to file and somebody interferes with me and then I file against the one who interferes with me.
[01:55:34.320 --> 01:55:41.320]  And with the one I when I make the filing, whoever I file it with, if they don't take it, then I file against them.
[01:55:41.320 --> 01:55:52.320]  I just make an absolute nuisance of myself and put everybody at potential risk of having to answer to that grand jury.
[01:55:52.320 --> 01:55:55.320]  So when do they want to put him in jail?
[01:55:55.320 --> 01:55:58.320]  They got no sense of humor.
[01:55:58.320 --> 01:56:04.320]  But it is very effective and it's a tool we haven't been using.
[01:56:04.320 --> 01:56:14.320]  Diane mentioned earlier about an attorney verifying a document that he had no personal knowledge of.
[01:56:14.320 --> 01:56:18.320]  Well, I see that as aggravated perjury.
[01:56:18.320 --> 01:56:25.320]  And I suspect if an attorney pulls that and we go down and start filing criminal charges with the district attorney
[01:56:25.320 --> 01:56:33.320]  and when he refuses to take the complaint, then we take a criminal complaint against the district attorney to the grand jury.
[01:56:33.320 --> 01:56:38.320]  The only one I try to go to grand juries is the district attorney that tries to interfere.
[01:56:38.320 --> 01:56:49.320]  So now I get the district attorney to do something so I can charge him criminally, go to the grand jury with that.
[01:56:49.320 --> 01:56:52.320]  Now who's going to interfere with me?
[01:56:52.320 --> 01:56:55.320]  Have you ever tried doing a citizen's arrest?
[01:56:55.320 --> 01:56:57.320]  No.
[01:56:57.320 --> 01:57:01.320]  Or arresting the judge?
[01:57:01.320 --> 01:57:05.320]  I have asked the bailiff to drag the judge down off the bench.
[01:57:05.320 --> 01:57:09.320]  I told him once to try once, but he wouldn't do it.
[01:57:09.320 --> 01:57:15.320]  And that is to place him under citizen's arrest and then remand him to the custody of the bailiff.
[01:57:15.320 --> 01:57:17.320]  Right. I think he did try that.
[01:57:17.320 --> 01:57:19.320]  No, I didn't try that.
[01:57:19.320 --> 01:57:23.320]  I just told the bailiff, do you hear that bailiff, Mr. Bailiff?
[01:57:23.320 --> 01:57:26.320]  Yes, Mr. Colton, I did drag that judge down off that bench.
[01:57:26.320 --> 01:57:28.320]  Well, that is a citizen's arrest though.
[01:57:28.320 --> 01:57:39.320]  I mean, if you didn't say citizen's arrest, that's really what you're doing because you're exercising your authority as an individual to arrest the judge.
[01:57:39.320 --> 01:57:43.320]  Then I can go after the bailiff then.
[01:57:43.320 --> 01:57:52.320]  And this is the routine I pull on when I file the writ of habeas corpus in Conroe for this kid
[01:57:52.320 --> 01:57:58.320]  and the judge refused to take the complaint because I wasn't, take the writ because I wasn't an attorney.
[01:57:58.320 --> 01:58:01.320]  I turned to the bailiff and said, Mr. Bailiff, did you hear that?
[01:58:01.320 --> 01:58:03.320]  Yes, Mr. Colton, I did.
[01:58:03.320 --> 01:58:06.320]  Arrest that judge. Drag that judge down off that bench.
[01:58:06.320 --> 01:58:07.320]  Throw him in jail.
[01:58:07.320 --> 01:58:09.320]  No, Mr. Colton, I'm not going to arrest the judge.
[01:58:09.320 --> 01:58:13.320]  So we had this argument back and forth with the bailiff.
[01:58:13.320 --> 01:58:20.320]  And the judge sat there and kept his mouth shut until the bailiff refused to arrest the judge.
[01:58:20.320 --> 01:58:28.320]  And then the judge said, Mr. Bailiff, if this man doesn't leave my courtroom, I want you to arrest him.
[01:58:28.320 --> 01:58:30.320]  I said, well, judge, you're cheating.
[01:58:30.320 --> 01:58:33.320]  He said, yes, I am. I've got the gavel.
[01:58:33.320 --> 01:58:35.320]  I actually know somebody who did that.
[01:58:35.320 --> 01:58:43.320]  He told the bailiff to arrest the judge and the judge got down off of her seat and ran in the back and wouldn't come out.
[01:58:43.320 --> 01:58:47.320]  All right. Listen, Mike, we kind of left you there for a while.
[01:58:47.320 --> 01:58:49.320]  Do you have anything else for us?
[01:58:49.320 --> 01:58:50.320]  Yes, I do.
[01:58:50.320 --> 01:58:53.320]  Okay. All right. We're going to finish up with Mike on the other side.
[01:58:53.320 --> 01:58:55.320]  We've got a full board of callers.
[01:58:55.320 --> 01:58:59.320]  We've got Ramon, Stephen, Russ, Gene, and we will be back on the other side.
[01:58:59.320 --> 01:59:05.320]  It is so enlightening to listen to 90.1 FM, but finding things on the Internet isn't so easy.
[01:59:05.320 --> 01:59:08.320]  And neither is finding like-minded people to share it with.
[01:59:08.320 --> 01:59:10.320]  Oh, well, I guess you haven't heard of Brave New Books, then.
[01:59:10.320 --> 01:59:12.320]  Brave New Books?
[01:59:12.320 --> 01:59:19.320]  Yes. Brave New Books has all the books and DVDs you're looking for by authors like Alex Jones, Ron Paul, and G. Edward Griffin.
[01:59:19.320 --> 01:59:23.320]  They even stock inner food, Berkey products, and Calvin Soaps.
[01:59:23.320 --> 01:59:25.320]  There's no way a place like that exists.
[01:59:25.320 --> 01:59:31.320]  Go check it out for yourself. It's downtown at 1904 Guadalupe Street, just south of UT.
[01:59:31.320 --> 01:59:34.320]  By UT, there's never anywhere to park down there.
[01:59:34.320 --> 01:59:42.320]  Actually, they now offer a free hour of parking for paying customers at the 500 MLK parking facility, just behind the bookstore.
[01:59:42.320 --> 01:59:45.320]  It does exist, but when are they open?
[01:59:45.320 --> 01:59:50.320]  Monday through Saturday, 11 AM to 9 PM, and 1 to 6 PM on Sundays.
[01:59:50.320 --> 02:00:05.320]  So give them a call at 512-480-2503, or check out their events page at bravenewbookstore.com.
