This page contains a listing of all litigation resources and tools that may prove useful to those wishing to defend their sovereignty in a court of justice or in setting up their own common law courts.  The documents appearing here are arranged either by form number or by their use, to make finding them easier.  The forms are provided in Adobe Acrobat format and may be viewed by downloading and installing the latest FREE Adobe Acrobat Reader from the link below:

http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html

Most of our forms and pleadings are also FILLABLE from within the Acrobat Reader as well!  Simply click on the fill-in box provided for each field, fill in the data, and save your copy of the form as a completed template.  Then you can reuse the completed form again in the future so as to save you time in responding to tax collection notices.  This is a very handy feature.

WARNING:  The litigation tools on this page are not intended as a "silver bullet" and they come with no guarantee.  You SHOULD NOT send any of these materials to anyone in the government, the courts, or the legal profession unless and until you have  downloaded and read our Path to Freedom Document, Form #09.015 and accomplished up to Step 14 of Section 2 and have become a Member of our fellowship in full compliance with our Member Agreement.  All of the litigation tools listed here PRESUPPOSE that those who use and submit them are in full compliance with our Member Agreement.  Those who are not in compliance would have to commit perjury under penalty of perjury in signing and submitting these litigation tools.    Information and materials available through this website are not intended, recommended, or authorized for use as:

  1. A substitute for your own diligent and committed study of the law.
  2. A crutch to help you permanently avoid studying or learning the law.
  3. Legal or tax advice or an insurance policy to divert any portion of the responsibility for your choice to use them away from you or onto anyone else by you.
  4. A tool to facilitate violations of law.
  5. A "tax shelter" within the meaning of any revenue law.  You can only use our materials if you are a Member, and "taxpayers" may not be Members.

Ultimately, all litigation boils down to what you yourself personally know and believe, not what others believe.  What others believe is nothing more than hearsay that is inadmissible under Fed.R.Evid. 610.  What you and only you know and believe is how "willfulness" is determined, which is a prerequisite to every tax crime.  Unless you can understand your own status in relation to the government and the legal premises, legal history, and legal foundations that are behind these litigation tools as explained in the above references, then nothing, including use of these litigation tools, will solve any problem you face.  The enemy is our own ignorance of the law, not the government, the courts, or the legal profession.   It is hypocritical to expect the government, the courts, or the legal profession to protect us if we don't help protect them from the harassment and abuses of ignorant or presumptuous people who refuse to do their homework. All you are going to do by using these litigation tools without studying the law FIRST is needlessly disrupt the government and the courts in the lawful execution of their duties and undermine otherwise good and valid legal defenses to the injury of those persons who are Members of this fellowship.

“One who turns his ear from hearing the law [ God's law or man's law], even his prayer is an abomination.”
[Prov. 28:9, Bible, NKJV]

 

"This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.  Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
[Joshua 1:8-9, Bible, NKJV,
IMPLICATION:  If you aren't reading and trying to obey God's law daily, then you're not doing God's will and you will not prosper]

 

"But this crowd that does not know [and quote and follow and use] the law is accursed.”
[John 7:49, Bible, NKJV]

 

"Salvation is far from the wicked, For they do not seek Your [God's] statutes."

[Psalms 119:155, Bible, NKJV]

 

"Every man is supposed to know the law. A party who makes a contract [or enters into a franchise, which is also a contract] with an officer [of the government] without having it reduced to writing is knowingly accessory to a violation of duty on his part. Such a party aids in the violation of the law."

[Clark v. United States, 95 U.S. 539 (1877)]

If you would like further reasons why the Bible says you MUST study, learn and follow the law as a way to learn how to love your neighbor and why learning the law is a protected religious practice, please read Nehemiah Chapters 8-9.
