COME NOW  the People of the United States of America (hereinafter

"Petitioners"), ex  relatione Paul  Andrew, Mitchell, B.A., M.S.,

Citizen of  Arizona state,  federal witness  and Counselor at Law

(hereinafter "Relator"),  to refuse  this honorable Court's ORDER

dated the  13th day  of August, 1996, in the above-entitled case,

for fraud  on its  face.    Confer  at  "fraud"  in  Black's  Law

Dictionary, Sixth Edition, to wit:

     Fraud.   ... A  false representation  of a  matter of  fact,
     whether by  words or  by conduct,  by  false  or  misleading
     allegations, or  by concealment  of that  which should  have
     been disclosed,  which deceives  and is  intended to deceive
     another so that he shall act on it to his legal injury.

                                                 [emphasis added]


        Notice of Refusal for Fraud and Intent to Remove:
                          Page 1 of 4


Specifically, Petitioners  submit that  this Court's  failure  to

rule on  Their previous  Petitions, in  particular Their PETITION

FOR CLARIFICATION  concerning the  meaning of  "U.S. dollars"  as

that term has already been used by this Court, has worked a fraud

upon Petitioners  by  concealing  that  which  should  have  been

disclosed.

     Petitioners submit  that They  are entitled  to know,  among

other matters  on which  this Court  has refused to rule, whether

this Court  intended to  include Federal  Reserve  Notes  in  the

category of U.S. dollars and to exclude them from the category of

Freeman checks  and other  like tender,  or, in  the alternative,

whether this  Court intended  to include Federal Reserve Notes in

the category  of Freeman  checks and  other like  tender  and  to

exclude Federal  Reserve Notes from the category of U.S. dollars,

as those terms were utilized by this Court.

     Petitioners also  place all  interested  parties  on  formal

Notice of  Their intent,  as  expressed  hereby,  to  remove  the

instant case  into the  District Court  of the  United States for

further litigation  on the  federal question  which has arisen by

reason of  the Defendants'  failure to  respond to the Freedom of

Information Act ("FOIA") request which the Relator has previously

submitted to  the United  States Department  of Justice  for  the

official credentials  of  all  633  alleged  federal  agents  who

rotated in  and out  of the Defendants' standoff with the Freemen

of Justus Township, within the geographic venue of this honorable

Court.  See 5 U.S.C. 552 et seq.

     Finally, Petitioners  hereby object  to this Court's finding

that the  relief requested  in  the  original  Petition  is  moot

because of  the surrender  of the Freemen.  The original Petition

requested the following relief:

     ... that  there will  be no  further  deprivation  of  life,
     liberty, or  property without due process of Law, consistent
     with the  Fifth Amendment to the Constitution for the United
     States of America, as lawfully amended.


        Notice of Refusal for Fraud and Intent to Remove:
                          Page 2 of 4


Since the  Freemen who  surrendered are  now either incarcerated,

and/or in  the custody  of the  United States  District Court  in

Billings, Montana,  the question  of due  process of  law and its

application to Their respective situations still remains quite an

open question,  and is  hardly moot  until due process of law, as

that term  is utilized in the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution

for the  United States  of America, as lawfully amended, has been

demonstrated by  the United  States, by the State of Montana, and

by  all   Their  respective   political  subdivisions,  officers,

employees, agents, assigns, and instrumentalities.


Executed on September 23, 1996


Respectfully submitted,
