WTF?
Prove to me that a "natural person" is not a legal fiction because I believe that is exactly what it is. Or maybe you are hue-man? That means color of man.
US Constitution
Amendment XIV
Section 1
All PERSONS born or NATURALIZED in the United States, and SUBJECT TO THE JURIDICTION THEREOF are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Because the practice is consistent and seemingly universal, it cannot be without purpose. Which is to say, there is some reason for name perversion. The reason is explained by definitions found at 15 U.S.C. § 11 27, reproduced below in relative part:
From the U.S. Code Online via GPO Access [Laws in effect as of January 27, 1998]
Sec. 1127. Construction and definitions; intent of chapter
In the construction of this chapter, unless the contrary is plainly apparent from the context;
The United States includes and embraces all territory which is under its jurisdiction and control.
The word "commerce'' means all commerce which may lawfully be regulated by Congress.
The term "person'' and any other word or term used to designate the applicant or other entitled to a benefit or privilege or rendered liable under the provisions of this chapter includes a juristic person as well as a natural person. The term "juristic person'' includes a firm, corporation, union, association, or other organization capable of suing and being sued in a court of law.
The term "person'' also includes any State, any instrumentality of a State, and any officer or employee of a State or instrumentality of a State acting in his or her official capacity. Any State, and any such instrumentality, officer, or employee, shall be subject to the provisions of this chapter in the same manner and to the same extent as any nongovernmental entity.
The terms "applicant'' and "registrant'' embrace the legal representatives, predecessors, successors and assigns of such applicant or registrant.
The terms "trade name'' and "commercial name'' mean any name used by a person to identify his or her business or vocation.
The term "trademark'' includes any word, name, symbol, or device, or any combination thereof;
used by a person, or
(2) which a person has a bona fide intention to use in commerce and applies to register on the principal register established by this chapter, to identify and distinguish his or her goods, including a unique product, from those manufactured or sold by others and to indicate the source of the goods, even if that source is unknown.
The term "service mark'' means any word, name, symbol, or device, or any combination thereof;
used by a person, or
(2) which a person has a bona fide intention to use in commerce and applies to register on the principal register established by this chapter, to identify and distinguish the services of one person, including a unique service, from the services of others and to indicate the source of the services, even if that source is unknown. Titles, character names, and other distinctive features of radio or television programs may be registered as service marks notwithstanding that they, or the programs, may advertise the goods of the sponsor.
The term "use in commerce'' means the bona fide use of a mark in the ordinary course of trade, and not made merely to reserve a right in a mar k. For purposes of this chapter, a mark shall be deemed to be in use in commerce;
1)on goods when;
2)it is placed in any manner on the goods or their containers or the displays associated therewith or on the tags or labels affixed thereto, or if the nature of the goods makes such placement impracticable, then on do cuments associated with the goods or their sale, and
3)the goods are sold or transported in commerce, and on services when it is used or displayed in the sale or advertising of services and the services are rendered in commerce, or the services are rendered in more than one State or in the United States and a foreign country and the person r endering the services is engaged in commerce in connection with the services.
This section is referred to in 19 U.S.C. §§ 1526 & 1595a , which primarily involve maritime drug trade. This is one of three primary purposes of the juristic or commercial name, i.e., JOHN DOE instead of John Doe. The juristic or commercial name, trade name, is predicated on maritime causes, i.e., private international law.
