Uniform Commercial Code
The government set up a "colorable" law system to fit the
"colorable" currency. It used to be called the Law Merchant or
the Law of Redeemable Instruments, because it dealt with paper
which was redeemable in something of substance. But, once
Federal Reserve Notes had become unredeemable, there had to be a
system of law which was completely "colorable" from start to
finish. This system of law was codified as the Uniform
Commercial Code, and has been adopted in every State. This is
"colorable" law, and it is used in all the courts.
I explained one of the keys earlier, which is that the
country is bankrupt and we have no rights. If the master says
"Jump!" then the slave had better jump, because the master has
the right to cut his head off. As slaves, we have no rights.
But, the creditors/masters had to cover that up, so they created
a system of law called the Uniform Commercial Code. This
"colorable" jurisdiction under the Uniform Commercial Code is the
next key to understanding what has happened.
Contract or Agreement
One difference between Common Law and the Uniform Commercial
Code is that in Common Law, contracts must be entered into: (1)
knowingly (2) voluntarily and (3) intentionally.
Under the UCC, this is not so. First of all, contracts are
unnecessary. Under this new law, "agreements" can be binding,
and if you only exercise the benefits of an "agreement," it is
presumed or implied that you intend to meet the obligations
associated with those benefits. If you accept a benefit offered
by government, then you are obligated to follow, to the letter,
each and every statute involved with that benefit. The method
has been to get everybody exercising a benefit, and they don't
even have to tell the people what the benefit is. Some people
think it is the driver's license, the marriage license or the
birth certificate, etc. I believe it is none of these.
Compelled Benefit
I believe the benefit being used is that we have been given
the privilege of discharging debt with limited liability, instead
of paying debt. When we pay a debt, we give substance for
substance. If I buy a quart of milk with a silver dollar, that
dollar bought the milk, and the milk bought the dollar --
substance for substance. But, if I use a Federal Reserve Note to
buy the milk, I have not paid for it. There is no substance in
the Federal Reserve Note. It is worthless paper given in
exchange for something of substantive value. Congress offers us
this benefit:
Debt money, created by the federal United States, can be
spent all over the continental united States; it will be
legal tender for all debts, public and private, and the
limited liability is that you cannot be sued for not paying
your debts.
So, now they have said, "We're going to help you out, and you can
just discharge your debts instead of paying your debts." When we
use this "colorable" money to discharge our debts, we cannot use
a Common Law court. We can only use a "colorable" court. We are
completely under the jurisdiction of the Uniform Commercial Code
-- we are using non-redeemable negotiable instruments and we are
discharging debt rather than paying debt.
Remedy and Recourse
Every system of civilized law must have two characteristics:
Remedy and Recourse. Remedy is a way to get out from under that
law. The Recourse is if you have been damaged under the law, you
can recover your loss. The Common Law, the Law of Merchants, and
even the Uniform Commercial Code all have remedy and recourse,
but for a long time we could not find it. If you go to a law
library and ask to see the Uniform Commercial Code, they will
show you a shelf of books completely filled with the Uniform
Commercial Code. When you pick up one volume and start to read
it, it will seem to have been intentionally written to be
confusing. It took us a long time to discover where the Remedy
and Recourse are found in the UCC. They are found right in the
first volume, at 1-207 and 1-103.
Remedy
The making of a valid Reservation of Rights preserves
whatever rights the person then possesses, and prevents the
loss of such rights by application of concepts of waiver or
estoppel. (UCC 1-207.7)
It is important to remember when we go into a court, that we
are in a commercial, international jurisdiction. If we go into
court and say, "I DEMAND MY CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS," the judge
will most likely say, "You mention the Constitution again, and
I'll find you in contempt of court!" Then, we don't understand
how he can do that. Hasn't he sworn to uphold the Constitution?
The rule here is: you cannot be charged under one jurisdiction,
and defend under another. For example, if the French government
came to you and asked where you filed your French income tax in a
certain year, do you go to the French government and say, "I
demand my Constitutional Rights?" No. The proper answer is:
THE LAW DOESN'T APPLY TO ME -- I'M NOT A FRENCHMAN. You must
make your reservation of rights under the jurisdiction in which
you are charged -- not under some other jurisdiction. So, in a
UCC court, you must claim your reservation of rights under the
UCC 1-207.
UCC 1-207 goes on to say:
When a waivable right or claim is involved, the failure to
make a reservation thereof, causes a loss of the right, and
bars its assertion at a later date. (UCC 1-207.9)
You have to make your claim known early. Further, it says:
The Sufficiency of the Reservation -- Any expression
indicating an intention to reserve rights, is sufficient,
such as "without prejudice". (UCC 1-207.4)
Whenever you sign any legal paper that deals with Federal Reserve
Notes -- in any way, shape or manner -- under your signature
write: Without Prejudice UCC 1-207.2 This reserves your rights.
You can show, at 1-207.4, that you have sufficiently reserved
your rights.
It is very important to understand just what this means.
For example, one man who used this in regard to a traffic ticket
was asked by the judge just what he meant by writing "without
prejudice UCC 1-207" on his statement to the court. He had not
tried to understand the concepts involved. He only wanted to use
it to get out of the ticket. He did not know what it meant.
When the judge asked him what he meant by signing in that way, he
told the judge that he was not prejudiced against anyone ....
The judge knew that the man had no idea what it meant, and he
lost the case. You must know what it means.
Without Prejudice UCC 1-207
When you use "Without Prejudice UCC 1-207" in connection
with your signature, you are saying:
I reserve my right not to be compelled to perform under any
contract or commercial agreement that I did not enter
knowingly, voluntarily, and intentionally. And,
furthermore, I do not accept the liability of the compelled
benefit of any unrevealed contract or commercial agreement.
What is the compelled performance of an unrevealed
commercial agreement? When you use Federal Reserve Notes instead
of silver dollars, is it voluntary? No. There is no lawful
money, so you have to use Federal Reserve Notes -- you have to
accept the benefit. The government has given you the benefit to
discharge your debts with limited liability, and you don't have
to pay your debts. How nice they are! But, if you did not
reserve your rights under 1-207.7, you are compelled to accept
the benefit, and therefore obligated to obey every statute,
ordinance and regulation of the government, at all levels of
government -- federal, State and local.
If you understand this, you will be able to explain it to
the judge when he asks. And he will ask, so be prepared to
explain it to the court. You will also need to understand UCC
1-103 -- the argument and recourse.
