Paul, in light of my most recent post, conflicts,
treasury (fiscus [i.e., private] not aerarius
[public]), and Meador's toying with private court
premise, consider that the Dept. of Treasury's
front entrance is checker-boarded in black & white.

EXCHEQ'UER, n. exchek'er.
In England, an ancient court of record, intended principally to collect and
superintend the king's debts and duties or revenues, and so called from
scaccharium, or from the same root, denoting a checkered cloth, which
covers the table. In consists of two divisions: the receipt of the exchequer,
which manages the royal revenue; and the judicial part, which is divided into
a court of law and a court of equity. The court of equity is held in the
exchequer chamber, before the lord treasurer, the chancellor of the
exchequer, the chief baron and three inferior barons. The common law court
is held before the barons, without the treasurer or chancellor.
Exchequer-bills, in England, bills for money, or promissory bills, issued from
the exchequer; a species of paper currency emitted under the authority of
the government and bearing interest.

fiduciary economy.(1)

by credit and when credit notes serve as a substitute
for money.” (Salvioli, pp. 5 & 264.) Ferdinand Lot,

And as you've probably read or have somewhere:
“The entire taxing and monetary systems are hereby
placed under the Uniform Commercial Code.”

UCCRS [Uniform Commercial Code Revised Statutes]

Federal Reserve notes are ‘money’ as defined

“Private law has for the second time in our long European
story overcome public law, and the sanctions which the
Capitalist can call to the aid of his private rule,
by the action of his private will, are stronger
than those which the public Courts can impose.”

partnership was so called wherein one partner
was wholly excluded from any share in the
profits, thus giving the other the “lion’s share.”
