Explanation Letter and Admiralty Article

[David Merrill]

There are probably at least four paths to develop this thread, each of which will branch fully into very interesting insights about history and law. Erie RR v. Thompkins (1938) is as interesting as Delovio v. Boit (1815) and Swift v. Tyson (1842) too. All of which describe and define admiralty on the land - insurance/bottomry - seizure, forfeiture, to role of the Crusades in adopting the Laws of Oleron (top of Page 3) into the Black Book of Admiralty...

The two instances so far mentioned though, that is for this post. - The two recent cases where the federal "judge" was apparently stuck in some kind of rut, wondering how to get the diversity issue off his bench and remand it to state court for settlement, but still have a career after doing so. The 2005 case was only 9 months stalled at the time the author wrote the letter. Ten years prior though, my pal who co-authored Are You Lost at C? would complain how federal judge Wiley Young DANIEL would not take off his Article I robe and dawn an Article III cap - for the purpose of the diversity ('saving to suitors' clause) issue is for the federal judge to decide which (e)state law should be applied and remand the case accordingly.

Jim wanted DANIEL to remand the case to Colorado state court so that he could pursue a settlement for the $10M demanded on the LoR. DANIEL just sat still and silent but that may have been because the IRS released all sign of any Notice of Lien at the county recorder and that would collaterally release all jurisdiction. In that event though, it is routine for the judge to say so on the record... nothing.

Jim was a 32nd Degree Mason too though. And he had mastered the Fibonacci Sequence in his stock market dealings as a financial advisor and sold his entire portfolio on the eve of the 2007 Crash - meaning he made a lot of money for his clients that day. In early December of 2005 I filed my Are You Lost at C?-style LoR with an in forma pauperis for the court to pay the $120 Fed notes because my cause was against the International Monetary Fund Internal Revenue Service (which is United Nations) and I did not want to have to pay in the currency issued by the Respondent. As I was driving back from Denver Jim paged me - very rare. I stopped at a truck stop to call him. He offered to pay my $120! I thanked him and was a bit stunned at his intelligence level involving my filing? I assured him if the in forma pauperis failed, I would be taking him up on his generous offer. No Go! I was to turn around, go back to Denver where the clerk of court would be waiting after hours to sign consent for Jim to pay by credit card - Today Only - the offer was only good for that day!

In that timeframe too, a suitor treated me to a weekend in Montana. Listening to the 4:00 Mark hear me inquiring what I could about Refusal for Cause - even back in 1995! Later though I sat and witnessed Leroy Michael's confidence in the law as he chuckled writing in International Monetary Fund Internal Revenue Service upon a $15K Comptroller Warrant; rather than the typical IRS. UN instead of Puerto Rico. SCHWIETZER knew what I was doing but did not expect that I held (and still have) no trust in the UCC for my common law. So instead of citing the UCC I just wrote in Without Recourse below my True Name, Family signature. I suppose I had an inkling that would be compelling a post 1976 End to the Financial Emergency too...

[Meaning in both of these examples I was compelling that the US Government go back to pre-1861 substance and specie.]

I doubt if Leroy would have chuckled had he known the day after that Comptroller Warrant hit Ogden campus that the feds would be picking him and Dan PETERSEN up at the rural post office out there on the Jordan, Montana plains. That was the start of the 13 Week Montana Freeman Standoff.

But I should not forget to mention, with a Government Shutdown/severe budget cut looming on the immanent Default as Congress fails to raise the Debt Ceiling in a couple weeks. [I say that because with no positive credit for the US Dollar anymore, Congress has no incentive to keep spending our children's money; especially with BRICS having emerged as an alternative SDR (paper gold) system of trade.] What I nearly forgot to mention was that two weeks later - after that strange call from Jim, Judge SPARR rejected my in forma pauperis. So I went back up to Denver and paid to file my case - on the Eve of the 31-Day Government Shutdown! Several people pointed out that was what is understood in the corporate world as Restructure. Typically Restructure is to assign a new trustee or Receivership:

Ergo, Daniel's Calendar for more reasons than one.
