I am wondering if anyone knows forms to fill out or right to travel case law and common law statutes and interpretations as well as U.C.C. law that could be used to fight this in a trial as I want to go through jury selection and take this to trial, dragging it out as long as possible. Can anyone help me with steps to take. I know I probably won't win but I want to use this to sock it to the system so to speak.

Plead not guilty and take it to trial. That will cost a lot of time and money and piss a lot of people off. In the opening and closing argument you can ventilate your frustrations with the system to six people. More than six during voir dire, when you get to interview and disqualify jurors.

Read Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein. As I recall there is an attorney argument in that book that is quite logical and at the same time self-defeating. Stuff like that.

The one argument I would enjoy hearing about is during voir dire, you disqualify any jurist for believing Jesus arose from the dead based upon Hebrews 11:1 -

Heb 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

That scripture spits in the face of Rules of Evidence:

Your honor; anybody who believes that a man was stone cold stinky-dead for three whole days, and was Resurrected based on one book full of parables and other conflicting and contradictory, highly symbolic material is completely unfit to be ruling here on anything! Shall we find out how many potential jurors believe in the Tooth Fairy too?

You may be new here - welcome. You should be aware you are being ridiculed over even speculating you have common law rights by statute:

The attorney in the black robe, upon hearing how you simply brought it to trial because you don't like that system anyway might do rediculously capricious things like make you pay the jury's wages that they lost out on to sit there...

I am speaking from experience. Once a potential juror asked to be excused because he wanted to hang me (for a traffic offense) before the voir dire. I believe you will have much better success to simply understand the blending of law and equity in 1938. There is no such thing as common law anymore but more dangerously something mutated and UGA Lawdog thinks that is the common law today.

I suggest you simply take the most basic equity argument before the revenue cause for which you are being persecuted - failure to pay a tax called motor vehicle registration. It is an ownership tax meaning that you only have Certificate of Title on the car. The state owns your car and as long as you pay fealty (tax) on it you are granted usage by the year.

That is really what you are mad about huh?

Take it to trial but make one simple argument. Bad faith. Do not waiver:

If I had known, if I had been informed in good faith, I could have redeemed lawful money and owned my car, not having to pay registration/ownership tax, I would have redeemed lawful money from my very first paycheck ever.

No guarantees, but this will probably save everybody a lot of time and money - especially you. Buy a certified copy of the law on the video by calling (719) 520-6200 and sending $2.25 for Reception #207015932. Get it entered into your case jacket right away. Underline and highlight the sentence:

They shall be redeemed in lawful money on demand...

Do not plead and be certain to object when the attorney in the black robe takes power of attorney and pleads not guilty for you.

You will have to remember that you were conditioned into doing this to yourself. You have nobody else to blame. You displayed your desire for the state to own and control your car by having the expired stickers. You asked for the regulation you would expect the state to exert on the state-owned cars next to your car.
