Judge Proves Jurisdiction to Sovereign Citizen by Locking Her Up Not Personal 2017-10-31 | No-nonsense judge tires of this sovereign's nonsensical arguments. So to show her that the Court has jurisdiction, he has her put into custody. Honestly, I don't think the judge here was very professional.

Then he should have warned her that he was going to find her in contempt and jail her. Then he should have made a formal finding of contempt and stated so on the record. **THEN** he should have locked her up. He let his emotions get the best of him.

Then the judge simply states, "the court recognizes 'navigating' as "operating'" and proceeds to hit him with the fine anyway.

Sovereign Citizen Makes a Feeble Attempt to Explain his Views Not Personal 2016-03-08 | This is a pretty boring video, I'm just posting it for those of you who are really interested in understanding the twisted "logic" of these guys. This poor guy seems to be at the DMV to pick up a title for his vehicle. Sad really. He just keeps spewing utter nonsense.

Sovereign Citizen Freeman Claims Right to Travel Freely in Court. Loses Not Personal 2016-01-26 | This guy is a bit off. With his thick New England accent, Mr. Denis claims to be a "sovereign child of God" and seeks dismissal of his license plate and vehicle registration violations because of (a) lack of jurisdiction and (b) a constitutional right to travel freely. A very patient judge hears his case and dismisses his motion.There is no "fundamental right to drive" a car. " In Dixon v. Love, 431 U.S. 105, 112-16, 97 S.Ct. 1723, 52 L.Ed.2d 172 (1977), the Supreme Court held that a state could summarily suspend or revoke the license of a motorist who had been repeatedly convicted of traffic offenses with due process satisfied by a full administrative hearing available only after the suspension or revocation had taken place. The Court conspicuously did not afford the possession of a driver's license the weight of a fundamental right. See also Mackey v. Montrym, 443 U.S. 1, 10, 99 S.Ct. 2612, 61 L.Ed.2d 321 (1979); Bell v. Burson, 402 U.S. 535, 539, 542-43, 91 S.Ct. 1586, 29 L.Ed.2d 90 (1971)." (quoting Miller v. Reed, 176 F.3d 1202 (9th Cir. 1999)."The right to operate a motor vehicle is wholly a creation of state law; it certainly is not explicitly guaranteed by the Constitution, and nothing in that document or in our state constitution has even the slightest appearance of an implicit guarantee of that right. The plaintiff's argument that the right to operate a motor vehicle is fundamental because of its relation to the fundamental right of interstate travel, Shapiro v. Thompson, 394 U.S. 618, 629-31, 89 S.Ct. 1322, 1329, 22 L.Ed.2d 600, 612-13 (1969), is utterly frivolous. The plaintiff is not being prevented from traveling interstate by public transportation, by common carrier, or in a motor vehicle driven by someone with a license to drive it. What is at issue here is not his right to travel interstate, but his right to operate a motor vehicle on the public highways, and we have no hesitation in holding that this is not a fundamental right." Berberian v. Pettit, 374 A.2d 791 (RI 1977)(denying a 13 year old a driver's license because there is no constitutionally protected right to drive a car).

Sovereign Citizen Freeman in Court Utterly Fails with Judge Default Issued Not Personal 2016-01-19 | So this is a great example of what actually happens when a "sovereign" attempts to try their BS legal theories in an actual court.

That means, the judge just treated him as a no-show, and found against him on all counts.The guy wouldn't cooperate with the hearing examiner, so he just simple ruled against him. Pretty simple
