That information will be found in the US >Code, available in the public library. Not true. We have received many copies of executed Appointment Affidavits from the Department of Justice. We have found all of them to be unacceptable, because our FOIA requests specifically required _certified_ copies of said Affidavits. DOJ now refuses to certify these crucial documents. Therefore, the photocopies which they do send out, are not admissible and, for this reason, are essentially worthless. The end result is being litigated right now, as I write this, before the 8th Circuit, because a failure to produce evidence of a proper oath of office is grounds for ouster by Quo Warranto. The 8th Circuit now knows this, because we have told them so. /s/ Paul Mitchell http://www.supremelaw.com > >Because _part_ of the information is available elsewhere under >this _interpetation_, they are using it as a slimy excuse to can >the entire request. > >Just a guess, which is not as interesting as some thoeries. Nice guess, but we are way beyond "guessing" at this stage of the game. One of the main reasons why I believe they are now stalling in the face of these FOIA requests for credentials, is that we took the next step in the Grand Jury case in Arizona last year. Once an Appointment Affidavit is entered into evidence, using Rule 201(d) of the Federal Rules of Evidence, for example, the Constitution and its exact provisions become a matter of evidence, and of equity. I have made no secret of my intentions to sue out the exact provisions of the Constitution which is mentioned in the language of 5 U.S.C. 3331, which language is repeated on these Appointment Affidavits. Here is the question we plan to put to a competent and qualified jury, for example: "Do the facts support a legal conclusion that the 16th amendment was not lawfully ratified?" A jury can be convened to issue declaratory relief on this subject, but the jury should be one convened under state law, because 28 U.S.C. 2201 has a bar against declaratory judgments, when the subject matter is federal income taxes. The state courts have original jurisdiction, pursuant to the explicit Reservations which Congress attached to the two human Rights treaties now on the books. Treaties are supreme Law, pursuant to the Supremacy Clause. /s/ Paul Mitchell http://www.supremelaw.com But >it's important to sytematically eliminate the possibilities in >this FOIA game, as I understand it. > >A more specific and limited request might turn the trick.
