THE LAW ON AMATEUR LEGAL THEORIES, by snoop4truth, October, 2015
If you would actually like the know THE LAW ITSELF about amateur legal theories (rather than what some amateur legal theorist TELLS YOU that the law is), then THE LAW BELOW IS FOR YOU.
EVERY SINGLE COURT THAT HAS EVER RULED ON AMATEUR LEGAL THEORIES HAS RULED AGAINST THEM. AMATEUR LEGAL THEORIES HAVE A 100% FAILURE RATE IN THE COURTS. THIS IS BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT REAL. THEY ARE FAKE.
The case law below reflects THE LAW ITSELF on the following amateur legal theories: “split personality” theory, “strawman” theory, “flesh and blood person” theory, “capital letters” theory, “governments are corporations” theory, “no jurisdiction” theory, “no contract” theory, “birth certificate” theory, “social security number” theory, “commercial law” theory”, “ UCC filing statement” theory, “UCC financing statement” theory, use of US citizens as “collateral for national debt” theory, “sovereign citizen” theory, ”redemption” theory, “imaginary trust accounts” at the Federal Reserve or at the US Treasury theory and related theories. The list below is a work in progress. So, please bear with us. At some point, we hope to publish THE LAW ITSELF ON EVERY AMATEUR LEGAL THEORY peddled on the web. The results will be published on JudgeDaleHoax.com (still under construction).
Note On Form Of Citation: We are well aware that the form of case citation that we used in this list of cases not the standard form of citation that lawyers and judges use (case name, volume number, abbreviated West Publishing Company reporter series, page number, abbreviated court name, partial date). But, we are not trying to help lawyers and judges find the law online. Instead, we are trying to help ordinary people find the law online. Ordinary people have access to Google Scholar, a FREE online case law database. The Google Scholar database includes cases that are not included in the West Publishing Company database and Google Scholar itself often DOES NOT cite cases using the standard form of citation that lawyers and judges use. So, in citing the cases below, we made a conscious decision to cite the cases below in exactly the same way that Google Scholar itself cites them (case name, full case number, full court name, full date, etc.). In this way, if an ordinary person simply goes to Google Scholar and simply keys in the information that we provided to them in our cites, then the correct case will actually come up. So, go to Google Scholar, click on “case law” in both the “state” and “federal” systems. Then, for each case below, key in the full case number (in quotes), and/or the full case date (in quotes, but without the parentheses below) and/or key in the party names (without quotes) and/or the full court name (in quotes). Google Scholar is FREE and easy to use.
Note On Legal Precedent: Just in case you do not already know, in our legal system, all future court decisions on these amateur legal theories must follow (copy and even quote) THE LAW that you see below.

Decided May 27, 2005)(ruling against the appellant’s amateur legal theories that “Texas is not part of the United States, and that the United States itself is unconstitutional because it is not a republican form of government”, that the federal government is a “corporation”, that “the federal government’s jurisdiction is limited to the District of Columbia and other federally owned lands” and holding that such amateur legal theories are “without merit”, “patently frivolous” and “likewise frivolous”).

17. McCann v. Greenway, 952 F.Supp. 647, No. 96-5038-CV-SW-1, United States District Court, W.D. Missouri, Southwestern Division (January 15, 1997)(ruling against the plaintiff’s amateur legal theories that “yellow fringe” on the American flag in the court room converted the American flag from an “American flag of peace” into to a “maritime flag of war” and ruling against his amateur legal theory that the use of the “maritime flag of war” in the courtroom somehow deprived the state court of jurisdiction over him, to which claims the court responded by holding that such claims were “frivolous”, “totally frivolous”, “preposterous” and “unintelligible” and holding that “yellow fringe does NOT necessarily turn EVERY such flag into a flag of war....[because] FRINGE IS NOT considered to be PART OF THE FLAG, and ... [fringe] is WITHOUT HERALDIC [SYMBOLIC] SIGNIFICANCE...[and that] the same is true of ...[the statue] of an eagle gracing the [top of the] flagpole. NOR ARE THE FRINGE AND THE EAGLE OF ANY LEGAL SIGNIFICANCE. Even were... [the plaintiff] to prove that yellow fringe or a flagpole converted the state court’s United States flag to a maritime flag of war, the Court cannot fathom how the display of a maritime flag could limit the state court’s jurisdiction....Jurisdiction is a matter of [written] law, [written] statute and [written] constitution, NOT A CHILD’’S GAME wherein one’s power is magnified or diminished by the display of some magic talisman [typically a magic stone or ring] and noting that other courts have “reject[ed the] argument that a federal court is limited to admiralty jurisdiction because it displayed a fringed flag” and noting that other courts have “reject[ed the] argument that a federal court lacks jurisdiction...because its flag is fringed” and noting that other courts have “reject[ed the] argument that a fringed flag in a state courtroom conferred admiralty jurisdiction [which, under the U.S. Constitution, can only be litigated in federal court, not state courts]” and noting that other courts have “dismiss[ed] as frivolous a motion alleging that ‘‘[a]dmiralty jurisdiction prevail[ed]’’ in the state court [which, under the U.S. Constitution, can only be litigated in federal court, not state courts], and rejecting [the] notion that federal district courts have jurisdiction over natural law when they fly a flag of the United States”)(emphasis ours).

19. State v. Hall, 8 SW3d 593 (Tenn. 1999)(ruling against the defendant’s amateur legal theory that “yellow fringe” on the flag in the courtroom indicated “martial law jurisdiction” to which the court responded by writing, “the use of FRINGE on the flag HAS NO inherent or established SYMBOLISM. It has NOTHING TO DO WITH JURISDICTION OF THE COURT OR WITH MARTIAL LAW. It is a PURELY DECORATIVE addition to enhance the appearance of the flag” and citing a case that held “FRINGE ON THE [FLAG] WAS NOT OF LEGAL SIGNIFICANCE AFFECTING THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURT AND ...[which held] that all future claims based on this argument [would be deemed] ‘‘frivolous and sanctionable’’[punishable]” and citing a case that held “yellow fringe on [the] flag DOES NOT CONVERT [a] state courtroom into a ‘‘foreign state or power’’” and citing a case which held that a “fringed flag DID NOT LIMIT the federal district court’s jurisdiction” and citing a case which held that a “yellow fringed flag DID NOT DIVEST [the] federal court of jurisdiction...” and citing a case that held that “[t]o think that a fringed flag adorning the courtroom somehow limits the court’s jurisdiction is frivolous” and citing a case which held that “the fringe on the flag in the courtroom is NOT OF LEGAL SIGNIFICANCE AFFECTING THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURT and all future claims based on this argument ...[will be deemed] frivolous and sanctionable [punishable]” and citing case which held that “yellow fringe on flag DOES NOT CONVERT [the] state courtroom into a ‘‘foreign state or power’’” and citing a case which that held that “a declaration that the president may authorize or allow the military to attach fringe to its flags IS NOT THE SAME THING as a declaration that ANY flag that is fringed is a military flag or that the presence of the fringe alters the law applied by the court in which a fringed flag appears”)(emphasis ours).
20. United States v. Harding, Civil Action No. 7:13cr0008, United States District Court, W.D. Virginia, Roanoke Division (May 1, 2013)(ruling against the defendant’s amateur legal theory that “yellow fringe” on the American flag converts the court into an admiralty court, and holding that “[t]his argument has been uniformly rejected by courts’’ and is “frivolous” and noting that other courts have “reject[ed the ] argument that the American flag in the courtroom had been replaced with an admiralty flag, noting similar arguments had been raised and dismissed in previous cases” and noting that other courts have held that “[T]HE YELLOW FRINGE ON THE AMERICAN FLAG HAS NO EFFECT ON A COURT’’S JURISDICTION OR A DEFENDANT’’S CONSTITUTIONAL OR STATUTORY RIGHTS” and noting that other courts have held that “[f]ederal jurisdiction is determined by [written] statute, NOT by whether the flag flow is plain or fringed”) (emphasis ours).

Decided August 12, 2011) (ruling against the defendant’s amateur legal theory that “the yellow fringe on the flag in the courtroom was improper and that as a result the court lacked authority to adjudicate [his] charges...[and his claims] that the yellow fringe on the flag made it a military flag rendering his court proceeding invalid” and holding that the defendant’s claims were “without merit” and writing that the “[d]efendant is not the first to complain about the flag in the courtroom. Around the country, courts have dealt with disgruntled litigants who have argued that their respective proceedings were illegal or unconstitutional because the court displayed a flag with yellow or gold fringe in the courtroom. [The d]efendant is not the first litigant to argue that the fringe on the flag indicates a military court” and holding that “ALL THE COURTS ADDRESSING ARGUMENTS THAT YELLOW OR GOLD FRINGE ON A COURTROOM-DISPLAYED FLAG AFFECTS A COURT’’S JURISDICTION HAVE EXPLICITLY REJECTED THOSE ARGUMENTS. These cases have gone as far as to label such arguments as “frivolous”, “totally frivolous”, “preposterous” and indisputably meritless” and holding that “yellow fringe on the flag DOES NOT turn EVERY such flag into a flag of war. Far from it. ..[F]RINGE IS NOT considered to be PART OF THE FLAG, and it is WITHOUT LEGAL SIGNIFICANCE. Jurisdiction is a matter of [written] law, [written] statute and [written] constitution, NOT A CHILD”S GAME wherein one’s power is magnified or diminished by the display of some magic talisman. The flag displayed in the courtroom did not affect the validity or legality of [the] defendant’s plea and/or sentence”) (emphasis ours).
23. Commonwealth v. Smith, 868 A2d 1253, Superior Court of Pennsylvania (Submitted January 3, 2005. Filed February 15, 2005)(ruling against the appellant’s amateur legal theory that “the courtroom’s flag gold-fringed United States flag (which appellate asserts represents the applicability of martial or admiralty law)” confused him as to which law applied to his case, to which claim the court responded by holding “[The a]ppellant’s claims are meritless. NO STATUTE of Pennsylvania, [NO] PROVISION of the United States Code, OR RELEVANT CASE LAW support [the] appellant’s BIZARRE contention that a gold-fringed United States flag represents the applicability of martial or admiralty law” and citing a case that held “the War Department ...knows of NO LAW which either requires or prohibits the placing of a fringe on the flag of the United States. NO ACT OF CONGRESS OR EXECUTIVE ORDER has been found bearing on the question....The federal court also noted that while “the President may...determine whether the Army or Navy display or remove fringes from their flags or standards...THE LATEST EXECUTIVE ORDER, SIGNED BY PRESIDENT EISENHOWER, HIMSELF A MILITARY MAN, DID NOT ADDRESS THAT ISSUE”) (emphasis ours).
24. Ebert v. State of Texas, Nos. 03-06-00752-CR, Court of Appeals Texas, Third District Austin, (Filed July 27, 2007)(ruling against the Ebert’s amateur legal theory that the fringe on the flag in the courtroom “indicated to him that the court was a military court, an admiralty court, a foreign jurisdiction, and an unlawfully erected state within a state,” to which the court responded by holding “[w]e find no legal or factual basis for these allegations. Ebert cites an executive order from President Eisenhower and asserts that the order states that a military flag of the United States has fringe on it....[But t]he executive order DOES NOT MENTION FRINGE ON FLAGS....When asked for an opinion regarding the propriety of the use of fringe on flags used by the military, the United States Attorney General in 1925 opined that...The fringe does NOT appear to be regarded as an integral PART OF THE FLAG and noting that “[a] declaration that the president may authorize or allow the military to attach fringe to its flags is NOT the same thing as a declaration that ANY flag that is fringed is a military flag OR THAT THE PRESENCE OF FRINGE ALTERS THE LAW APPLIED BY A COURT IN WHICH THE FLAG APPEARS” and noting that the court in which the flag was displayed DID NOT ACTUALLY USE MILITARY OR MARITIME LAWS OR RULES OF PROCEDURE IN DECIDING THE CASE ANYWAY) (emphasis ours).
25. In Re: Becker, Bankruptcy No. 09-01541, Adversary No. 10-9021, United States Bankruptcy Court, N.D. Iowa (December 10, 2010)(ruling against the debtor’s amateur legal theory that the proceeding against him was invalid because “the American and Iowa flags were improperly adorned with gold fringe and that a courtroom that displays such flags lacks authority to adjudicate [his] case”, to which the court responded by noting that “[c]ourts addressing arguments that gold fringe on a courtroom-displayed flag affects the jurisdiction have explicitly rejected those arguments [providing a list of such cases] and noting that “[t]hese case have gone as far as to label such arguments “frivolous”. “preposterous” and “really unintelligible” and holding that “THE FLAGS DISPLAYED [IN THE COURTROOM] DID NOT AFFECT THE VALIDITY OR LEGALITY OF THIS PROCEEDING”). We have dozens and dozens of more case cites for rulings against amateur legal theories, but you get the general idea. The foregoing cases ARE THE LAW ITSELF, not amateur legal theories about what the law is. Every single amateur litigant who has every relied on amateur legal theory in court HAS LOST. In court, your opponents use REAL law against you. In order to win in court, you must use REAL law against your opponents. FAKE law (like the amateur legal theories above) do not have any effect on REAL law. This is why Rodney DALE Class has LOST EVERY SINGLE CASE IN WHICH HE HAS EVER BEEN INVOLVED (39 CONSECUTIVE, COMPLETE LOSSES AND STILL COUNTING). Suggestion: Do not take legal advice from anyone with a 100% failure rate in the courts.
