None of these have anything to do with 'diction' or 'speaking' which is the basic root of 'juris-diction'.

Law - ignorance of a foreign law is ignorance of a fact and is not criminal
Statute - binding on those who take oaths and accept salaries which would be your basic civil servant
Constitution - composed by constitutors who seek to pass their debts on to others. In the case of the federal constitution the states are the participants rather than the individual inhabitants of the states. As it is binding on the states I might suggest you send any federal debt to them.

Smoke and mirrors, Hare. That and clueless judges.
