Hello Ted,
I was Counsel to the Plaintiffs in that
Petition for Peremptory Writ of Mandamus,
to compel Boxer to witness the evidence
proving that the 16th amendment was never
lawfully ratified. It was case number
S-030016 in the California Supreme Court,
December 1992.
You can update yourself on recent developments
in this debate by visiting the Supreme Law
Library at URL:
http://www.supremelaw.com
and reading "Congresswoman Suspected of
Income Tax Evasion." Please tell everyone
about this website. A tremendous amount
of difficult research went into the essays
and articles you will find there, particularly
"The Cooper File," the most recent addition.
You can purchase the pleadings in People v.
Boxer in electronic form from Us, for
$25 prepaid in cash or blank U.S. Postal
Money Order. ("Blank" means the "PAY TO:"
line is left blank, so we can fill in
any payee we choose.)
The foundation for that law suit was the
book I wrote entitled "The Federal Zone:
Cracking the Code of Internal Revenue"
which was an exhibit. It is also available
in electronic form for $25 from Us. IRS
stole the money we were saving to reprint
the bound hard-copy version.
I hope this helps. Good luck with your
campaign.

FIRST AMENDMENT PETITION TO CONGRESS
FOR REDRESS OF GRIEVANCES
Dear Representative/Senator ____________________________________:
This is a formal Petition to Congress for redress of a major
grievance which I have with the federal government.
Recent research has disclosed that the original motive for
Prohibition (the Volstead Act), was to give oil companies an
unfair jump on their monopoly over automotive fuels. It also
appears that the BATF were created to disperse an unlawful police
force throughout the several States, under the guise of
controlling commerce in alcohol. Once the monopoly was in place,
Prohibition was repealed, leaving alcohol high and dry as the
preferred fuel for automobiles, and leaving this unlawful police
force in place to extort money from the American People.
This research also proves that the "Internal Revenue
Service" [sic] is actually an alias for the Federal Alcohol
Administration domiciled at Trust #62 in Puerto Rico, under an
Act of Congress which was held to be unconstitutional in 1935.
The proof is found, among other places, in all the references to
Title 27 which can be found in the regulations for Title 26.
None of these regulations is lawful, because IRC 7851(a)(6)(A)
states that the provisions of subtitle F shall take effect on the
day after the date of enactment of Title 26. Unfortunately for
the federal government, Title 26, as such, has never been enacted
into positive law, rendering ALL the enforcement provisions of
subtitle F null and void. For example, the authority to issue
regulations in the first instance is found in subtitle F.
From the research cited above, I have come to believe that
the United States federal government is now engaged in a criminal
syndicate of extortion, perjury, mail fraud, theft, conversion,
fraud, and conspiracy involving all of the above. I therefore
demand immediate hearings on the relations between the "Internal
Revenue Service" and the Federal Alcohol Administration domiciled
in Puerto Rico and operating elsewhere on this planet. If these
hearings should prove that the Internal Revenue Service is not a
lawful organization within the United States Department of the
Treasury, then it is time for a major shift in the wind, because
every piece of mail they are sending these days is one count of
mail fraud by the sender. I think you will agree that We, as a
Nation, have a very big problem here.
I will look forward to your immediate response to this
formal, verified Petition for Redress of this major grievance
which I, and millions of other Americans, now have against the
United States (federal government). I never thought I would see
the day when I would be forced to define the "United States" as a
criminal enterprise, but sadly that day has now arrived.
VERIFICATION
I hereby certify, under penalty of perjury, under the laws
of the United States of America, without the "United States",
that the above statements of fact are true and correct, to the
best of my current information, knowledge, and belief, so help Me
God, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1746(1).
Executed on the ____________ day of ______________________, 1997.

First Amendment Petition to Congress
Follow These Fun Instructions:
1. Make 12 copies of your original and save it. You will need
it tomorrow. Don't forget to print these instructions on
the back side, so others like you will know what to do.
2. Complete 1 form for each U.S. Senator from your state, and 1
for your U.S. Representative. If you don't already know,
their names are available at your local public library;
just ask the Librarians, they will be happy to help you.
3. Post them via first class U.S. Mail, without return address,
to the House of Representatives and United States Senate,
Washington, D.C. [zip code exempt]. They will get there.
4. Give 3 blank forms to each of 3 others who are willing to
follow through. This will propagate faster than 2x2x2 = 8,
because 3x3x3 = 27!
5. Make as many extras as you are willing to disseminate, e.g.
state Governor, county grand jury foreperson, any body,
every body, and then some (don't forget Mom). You will get
extra credit for doing this step.
6. Print the blank form and instructions in local newspapers,
flyers, electronic bulletin board systems, Internet email,
any way, every way, best way you can think of (we may want
to imitate you, ok?). Lots of extra credit for doing this
step too.
7. If you have a computer, get your hands on the original file
VOLSTAD.DOC from Paul Andrew, Mitchell, B.A., M.S.
(pmitch@primenet.com) written in MS-WORD for DOS, Version
5.0B, upward compatible with almost ALL word processors.
8. Send $1 cash to Paul Andrew, Mitchell, B.A., M.S., c/o 2509
N. Campbell, #1776, Tucson, Arizona state [zip code exempt],
to support additional research, writing, communication, and
political action like this. This is a fee for services
tendered, rendered, and retained. Extra funds mean extra
credits.
9. Call late night talk shows and read the First Amendment
Petition to the hosts, right on the air. Try reading it in
the mirror first, when nobody is looking or listening, to
give yourself confidence. You might also practice it in
speech classes, to get expert feedback on subtle things,
like inflection, emphasis, and emotion. Weeping is okay.
This is a nationwide catharsis we must overcome.
10. It is perfectly okay to use a pen name, if you need some
additional privacy and security.
11. Rejoice and be glad, for the day of your deliverance is now
at hand.
