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 one of the following two formats:

  1. In Microsoft Word editable format.  You will need Microsoft Word to use these documents and you should watch Section 9 on our Support Page in order to learn how to use this type of a document.
  2. In Adobe Acrobat format and may be viewed by downloading and installing the latest FREE Adobe Acrobat Reader from the link below:

http://get.adobe.com/reader/

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 forms on this page are not intended as a "silver bullet" and they come with no guarantee.  Anyone may obtain and read materials available through this website and by doing so they mandatorily become Members of our fellowship.  However, our Member Agreement FORBIDS you to employ (which we call "use") any of these materials in any of your administrative or legal interactions with anyone in any government, court, or the legal profession in disputing a tax liability unless and until you have downloaded and read our PDF 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 for all related tax years.  All of the forms 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 forms.  Information or services 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 but you.
  4. A tool to facilitate violations of law.
  5. A "tax shelter" within the meaning of any revenue law.  A "tax shelter" is a device used to reduce the liability of a statutory "taxpayer", and those who are "taxpayers" may obtain but may not "use" our tax materials or services in interacting with members of the legal profession or government.

Ultimately, all litigation boils down to FACTS that you yourself personally know and believe, rather than what others believe.  You can't know a FACT until you know what EVIDENCE is.  What others believe is nothing more than hearsay that is inadmissible under Fed.R.Evid. 610.  What you and only you know and believe and the FACTS and EVIDENCE that it is based on is how "willfulness" is determined, which is a prerequisite to every tax crime.  Unless you can understand your own PDF status in relation to the government, the context [CONSTITUTIONAL or STATUTORY] you are dealing with, and the legal premises, legal history, and legal foundations that are behind these forms as explained by our free PDF Path to Freedom Document, Form #09.015 curricula, then nothing, including use of these forms or any of our services, will solve any problem you face.  The common enemy is our own ignorance of or disrespect for the law, not governments, courts, or the legal profession.  It is hypocritical, selfish, and psychopathic to expect any government, any court, or any member of the legal profession to protect us if we don't help protect them from the harassment and abuses of ignorant or PDF presumptuous people who refuse to do their homework or exercise their MANDATORY due diligence.  All you are going to do by using these forms 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 who are Members of this fellowship.

“One who turns his ear from hearing the law [PDF 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."

[Psalm 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.

2.  LEGAL REFERENCE

"My people are destroyed for lack of [legal] knowledge.
Because you have rejected [legal] knowledge,
I also will reject you from being priest for Me [and my disciple];
Because you have forgotten the law of your God [and refuse to learn and obey man's law],
I also will forget your children. "
[Hosea 4:6, Bible, NKJV]

6.  FREE LEGAL TREATISES

These legal treatises are all free and most are downloadable to your local hard drive.  While many of them are older, the concepts described and most of the authorities are still pertinent.  They will save you many trips to the law library, which in many cases is out of reach to most people who do not live in or near larger cities.  All of the references in this section are offsite links.  We are not responsible for their content.  All of these titles are sequenced in alphabetical order to make them easier to navigate.
