Lawsuit Hope and Hype

23 Aug

Hoping for the BestSee the cute little blue fellow?

He’s hoping.

Not that hope isn’t a good thing.

Hope based on truth is a good thing.

Unrealistic hope is not.

Unprepared hope is not.

Uninformed hope is not.

In other words, hope based on hype is foolishness.

Received favorable responses to our last Tips & Tactics yet some still hold legal mythology is better than learning the official rules and how to use official rules.

I want you to WIN ! ! !

But, you cannot win hoping on hype … no matter how promising the hype may seem.

Sure, it would be great if you could get out of paying a speeding ticket by claiming you copyrighted your name so the courts can’t use your name without your permission, or that your name in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS isn’t “you”, or that you’re a “person” not a “citizen” and therefore above the law and no longer subject to government force.

It would be great to go about doing as you please with no regard to man’s law, claiming you’re serving God when, by the way, scripture tells us to obey those in authority over us (and, yes, you could insist no one has authority over you).

But, I want you to WIN in court!

You will not win if you refuse to learn the rules and how to use the rules to get justice legally.

You will not win if you show up in court with silver-bullet methods to “get around the law”.

Sure, once in awhile someone skips out of a busy traffic court by getting the judge exasperated with internet legal mythology, but I’ve been to court more than a few times since 1986 when I was first sworn in (and not to any British agency, by the way!) as a member of the Florida Bar. I’ve seen judges get exasperated and let people off scott-free. I’ve seen many more escorted by the bailiff to a cell where they were left to decide if they wished to be subject to the official rules.

You choose.

We all have that choice.

It’s our prerogative in this wonderful nation.

Go to court with legal mythology sold by those who wish you to believe you are “above the law of the land”, or go to court knowing how to use the official rules to get Justice the American Way … according to law!

In 24 hours with my affordable, official Jurisdictionary “How to Win in Court” step-by-step self-help course you will know how to command judges and stop crooked lawyers in their tracks!

It’s not mythology!

It’s all based on official rules YOU can use to get justice by demanding everyone follow the rules!

That’s what too many American Heros died to give you!

  1. Law and Order.
  2. Due Process.
  3. The Rule of Law.

These are the three things true patriots fight for!

 

Beware of Legal Mythology!

21 Aug
Lawsuit Self-Help ... Step-by-Step

 

Many today are angry at our justice system, and many of them have good cause to be angry!

But, some are too angry!

Their anger will hurt you!

They are out of control!

They teach falsehoods!

They’re that angry!

That’s how you know them.

They are not your friend!

Their “legal theories” fail.

They are blinded by rage.

Believe them at your peril.

Angry people can rarely be trusted, and that is never more true than when they try to get you to join them in their angry legal theories that run contrary to the rules that control our courts.

#1 For example, a nice fellow called me the other day and ended up screaming at me because I refused to go along with his idea that our birth certificates are some kind of “contract”. In the first place, the most fundamental truth about contracts is that no “contract” can bind a party who doesn’t understand the agreement. Even if we were able to understand the alleged binding nature of our birth certificate at the moment of our birth, we didn’t sign the thing! Some doctor did, probably. We cannot be bound by a contract we don’t understand, and certainly not one we didn’t enter into. Yet, this nice man screamed at me for refusing to help him storm the hated walls of justice for him and take up his cause to fight the dragons!

#2 Another strange legal myth that’s come around in the last few months is that one can “copyright” his or her own name and thereby prevent the courts from using their name on any court papers. Duh! Anger does twist the mind in strange ways! But, to think one can prevent others from using his or her name by “copyrighting” the name is utter nonsense.

I want you to win.

You cannot win relying on nonsense!

#3 A few are absolutely convinced that our courts are “sitting in admiralty” and therefore cannot rule in common law or statute. But, the fact is that pretty much any court can rule in admiralty cases, if the issue before them is one that involves navigation or the rights of seagoing workers or dockside stevedores. Contract disputes, negligence cases, foreclosure, and other matters are absolutely notadmiralty cases, and the courts that hear such cases are not “sitting in admiralty” … no matter whether there’s a yellow fringe on the flag in the corner or not.

#4 More than a few seem to have made a “religion” out of believing such things. Many claim to be “patriots”, yet do all they can to evade the Rule of Law and refuse to do much of anything toward learning the principles of due process so many gave their lives to protect in past and present wars! This group of people get together to talk about how horrible things are but spend very little effort learning how to make things better by learning the rules!

I know people are hurting.

I’ve been helping thousands upon thousands of good people get justice in the courts since 1997 when I first put Jurisdictionary on the internet. It wasn’t much back then, but I’ve been doing all I can to make it better each year and will do the best I can to continue in the months and years to come.

But!

If you choose to believe the lies, God help you!

Lies are what we’re fighting to overcome.

Overcoming lies is what the rules are all about!

Please don’t get me wrong. I want to help those who are angry, as well as those who are being destroyed by crooked bankers, corrupt judges, lying lawyers, and the hosts of darkness that never seem to give up in their quest to destroy all that’s good and wholesome in this world we live in.

But!

YOU … that’s right … YOU cannot afford to believe the lies if you want to get justice in our courts!

Your birth certificate is not a contract.

You are who you are, no matter whether your name is spelled in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS or all small letters or written out in script with a ball-point pen!

And, as far as our courts go, nobody (and I do mean nobody) knows better than I do about the corruption of some judges or the stealth and trickery that lawyers use to twist the truth to their own advantage.

But, being angry won’t help.

The only thing that will help is learning how to use the rules that control the courts, rules that stop corruption, rules that require judges to grant justice, rules that were paid for by far too much innocent blood already.

Please join Jurisdictionary in our effort to uplift the hopes and determination of the American People and even people in other nations around the world where justice is for sale to the highest bidder and good, honest people are sacrificed on the altar of money!

Someone once said, “The truth will set you free!”

If YOU believe that … if you really believe it … then you will join the work of Jurisdictionary to reach people who are being destroyed all too often simply because they are believing the legal mythology so rampant on the internet, in our daily emails, and even in weekend seminars a few amateurs here and there are putting on for those foolish enough to pay.

There’s never been but one way to win any contest!

Either you cheat … or you use the rules to your own advantage.

Cheaters don’t win all that often.

Food for thought?

Winning is EASY once you know the rules and how to use them effectively!

so your friends can see how easy it is to win.

Don’t let anyone intimidate you into thinking lawsuits are too complicated for mere mortals to grasp or deceive you into thinking all lawyers are smarter than the rest of the human race … ’cause it ain’t so!

Anyone can learn the rules required to win!

Anyone!

You simply need to start with a clear view of the field of play, the object of the game, and the rules that control all the players … including judges and lawyers!

It IS simple … as many thousands have learned!

In the 13 years since I launched Jurisdictionary I’ve found the most debilitating factor that infects good people with hopelessness is the fear that comes from lack of knowing how the game of litigation is played to win!

Not knowing creates fear.

Knowledge displaces fear with the confidence!

Take any apparently complicated thing apart to examine its component parts and you quickly see how they all fit together. When you first begin, it seems impossible.

But!

If someone shows you how each separate part works with each of the other parts, even the most complicated things are suddenly easy-to-understand. The mystery my profession has woven disappears!

Every one of you has great legal power!

Sadly, many good people never discover the power that is theirs … so people who know how to use the rules of court and the law of the case take advantage of them!

Jurisdictionary wants to turn the tables on crooked lawyers and biased judges and protect the “little guys and gals” that are being taken advantage of simply because no one has ever come out with a course like this. No one has ever cared enough to tell you the truth. No one has ever made it this easy-to-understand!

It is easy-to-understand how to win in court once you see things the way I teach them!

How to Win the Game of Law

16 Aug
KNOW THIS: There are TWO (2) kinds of law!

If you want to win, you must learn this secret that I share with you in this Jurisdictionary Tips & Tactics!

YOU MUST KNOW BOTH KINDS OF LAW!Win the Game of Law with Jurisdictionary!

Too many of you good folks are losing (or fighting a losing battle you cannot possibly win) because you think you know the “law” and are persuaded from your studies that “the law is on your side”.

But, there are TWO (2) kinds of law!

Even if “the substantive” law is clearly on your side, you will lose if you don’t know the other kind of law!

Most losers never know why they lost.

They blame the judge, blame the system, blame the party on the other side.

Most losers never know they could have won …

… if only they knew BOTH kinds of law!

You may know the law of foreclosure, for example. You may have given the bank or mortgage company all those notices without receiving the replies required by law. You may have made all payments! Perhaps the lender doesn’t even have the mortgage or the note. The “substantive law” is on your side, and you “should” win.

But!

Unless you know both kinds of law, you’ll lose!

You studied the “substantive law” and say, “The law is clearly on my side. The judge will be forced to give me a victory!”

But!

That’s NOT all there is to it!

Your your fight may be about taxes, breach of contract, lost wages, custody of children, or something else — and you may know the “substantive law” pertaining to these things and be able to recite those laws backwards and forwards by memory.

But, if you stop there and rush into court demanding the judge give you a favorable verdict … and will lose!

There are TWO (2) kinds of law!

Both apply to every case.

YOU MUST KNOW BOTH TO WIN!

Just having “the law on your side” is never enough!

Substantive law is the law too many foolishly rush into court with a chip on their shoulder about, demanding that the judge enforce the “substantive law” in their favor.

This is a reasonable assumption, but it’s wrong!

Knowing a bank securitized its promissory notes or that the bank no longer has proof of your debt, for example, is definitely “substantive law on your side”.

But, do you know how to prove these things?

Do you know how to use court procedure?

Do you know how to get evidence into the record?

THIS SECOND KIND OF LAW is EASY TO LEARN!

AND IT IS ESSENTIAL IF YOU WANT TO WIN, BECAUSE YOUR OPPONENT WILL USE THIS SECOND KIND OF LAW TO THROW YOU UNDER THE BUS IF YOU DON’T KNOW HOW TO FIGHT BACK!

Assuming just because “the law is on your side” that the judge should give you a victory isn’t smart!Learn from Jurisdictionary step-by-step

You must know what we lawyers call “procedural law” and how to use procedural law to control the judge and your opponent and his lawyers!

  • PROCEDURE
  • EVIDENCE

Procedural law is easy to learn.

It is simply:

  1. Rules of Procedure (less than 50 pages) and
  2. Rules of Evidence (less than 20 pages).

But!

Consider the game of chess.

Imagine three chess players:

  • Player #1 doesn’t yet know the rules of chess
  • Player #2 has memorized the rules but doesn’t know how to use them tactically or strategically
  • Player #3 has been playing chess for 25 years so he not only knows how the pieces move but how to move them to checkmate his opponents

Which kind of player are you?

#1 … You don’t yet know the procedural rules,

#2 … You know the rules but not how to use them, or

#3 … You know the rules AND HOW TO USE THEM TO CONTROL THE JUDGE AND YOUR OPPONENT!

In just 24-hours with my official affordable, step-by-step Jurisdictionary “How to Win in Court” self-help course you will learn secrets about procedure and evidence rules other members of my profession don’t want you to know!

If you don’t know “how to play the game”, you lose!

Pro se people who use my course are winning in court!

But! Pro se people often do not get justice.

Why?

Consider the following facts:

  1. Most pro se people don’t know the rules or how to use them to win (evidence and procedure rules).
  2. Most pro se people don’t know how to prevent the lawyer on the other side from playing tricks with the rules.
  3. Most pro se people make assumptions about what is “admissible evidence” and stuff that isn’t.
  4. Most pro se people don’t know how to draft their pleadings or motions properly.
  5. Most pro se people don’t know why it’s important to write proposed orders for the judge to sign.
  6. Most pro se people don’t know why, when, or how to make effective objections in court.
  7. Most pro se people don’t understand what facts are critical to winning a case and what facts are of no consequence but only muddy the waters with court-confusing insignificance.
  8. Most pro se people don’t know why it’s so vitally important to cite controlling appellate cases in support of their pre-trial and trial motions.
  9. Most pro se people don’t know how to arrange for a written transcript to be made of all proceedings before the court, so they can control the judge.
  10. Most pro se people waste valuable court time with non-essentials, fail to appreciate the needs of others who have their own problems to bring before the court and, as a consequence, tend to make judges dread pro se cases.

Pro se people who know what I explain so simply in the official Jurisdictionary step-by-step 24-hour course are winning and even getting compliments from judges and even opposing lawyers … because they do it right!


Not all judges are “against” pro se people “just because they are pro se”. Most of the judges I knew in my 25 years were good people who cared about other people and did their best to guarantee justiceaccording to the rules.

But! You must know how to protect yourself!

Pro se parties who know the rules and how to use them to protect themselves from courtroom corruption the way my Jurisdictionary step-by-step 24-hour course makes so easy-to-understand don’t let crooked lawyers get away with their smoke-and-mirrors tricks!

The difference between winners and losers is the fact that winners know how to win and losers cry about it!

If you want to make it complicated and muddy the pond with all kinds of nutty arguments, you can do so, make the judge angry, and lose when your “evidence” isn’t admitted because it isn’t “admissible evidence”, etcetera.

You can demand your Constitutional Rights, instead of learning about causes of action and their elements that win lawsuits, and you will lose.

You can refuse to learn the rules of evidence, the rules of procedure, and the tactics and strategies my course is so popular for making easy to learn, and you will lose!

But!

If you want to win, get my affordable Jurisdictionary step-by-step 24-hour course now and master the case-winning strategies and tactics I used for 25 years as a case-winning lawyer in state and federal courts.

There is only ONE “Official Jurisdictionary” course!

If you’re paying a lawyer, know what your lawyer should be doing to earn his fee and win your case.

If you don’t have a lawyer, know what you must do to force the judge do what’s right and prevent the lawyer on the other side from cheating.

It’s that simple.


In short, you’ll learn how to save money, maximize your winning power, and resolve conflicts peacefully and profitably … according to the rules!

Many lawyers are afraid to upset judges, so they let things slide. They don’t object. They don’t “instruct” the judge on the law.

Most lawyers never learn what Jurisdictionary makes so easy-to-learn. People have been telling me since I started Jurisdictionary in 1997 that, “Your course should be required in first year law school.” But, of course, that’s not likely to happen, because what Jurisdictionary shows you isn’t politically correct! I teach you how to control judges, instead of bowing to them, I I teach you how to overcome crooked lawyers and their all-too-common sneaky tricks!

Political correctness prevents justice too often!

Winners do what Jurisdictionary makes easy-to-learn and don’t wait until trial to get justice!

Those who learn my affordable 24-hour step-by-step Jurisdictionary self-help course win … no matter how high the odds are stacked against them!

Winners know how to win!

Losers believe internet fables. Losers get their legal education at the barbershop or on websites or expensive weekend seminars run by people who never practiced law, never went to law school, and don’t know mud from sand about rules or how to use them to control judges.

Too many good folks believe mythological silver-bullet easy solutions to their legal problems and, as a result, are losing when they would be winning if they knew what I make so easy-to-learn in my Jurisdictionary course!

The internet is infested with hare-brained schemes that sound too good to be true … and, like the old adage says, “If it sounds to good to be true, it probably isn’t.”

Remember: The most dangerous falsehoods are ones we most want to believe!

Why not learn from a real lawyer with nearly 25 years of case-winning experience?

My course is not expensive!

People who finish my course say an average 8th grader can learn it all in a single weekend.

If you have a lawyer, you will save thousands in legal fees by knowing what your lawyer should be doing, and at the same time you will maximize your chances for success by making certain your lawyer does what should be done, instead of taking you for a ride to the poorhouse – as happens to too many good people these days.

If you don’t have a lawyer, you’ll know how to stop the opponent’s crooked tricks and control the judge!

How to Cite Controlling Law

09 Aug

Jones v. Smith, 287 So.2d 145 (Fla. 4th DCA, 1998)

Do you want to win in court?Shelf of Law Books

You must learn citation rules!

What are all those numbers?

What do they mean?

Does it seem complicated?

It’s really simple.

Simple, that is, once you see how we explain it for you.

I’l tell you a few things today in this Tips & Tactics and leave the rest for you to learn with my affordable, official, 24-hour  JurisdictionaryHow to Win in Court” step-by-step self-help course.

The first part is easy, of course.

The names of the parties are separated with a “v.” This means “versus” (as you already know), just as it will be Yankees v. Boston Red Sox in the 2011 World Series.

Right?

There may be other parties (more than just “Jones” and “Smith” in the fight) but a citation is still good if it names the prominent parties.

Now, what about “287 So. 2d 543”?

This is also simple (just like everything I explain in my affordable,official, 24-hour Jurisdictionary “How to Win in Court” step-by-step self-help course you should order today, if you haven’t already).

The first number is the page where the “Jones v. Smith” written appellate court opinion appears. Tough? Not at all. It’s just a page number. Nothing more. See? It’s easy!

And, “So.2d”?

That’s just an abbreviation for a particular set of books known as “reporters” (i.e., books that “report” opinions of appellate court justices that control trial judges and their lower level decisions). In this example it stands for the “Second Edition” of the Southern Reporter. These contain written opinions of appellate courts in Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, and Mississippi. A complete set of the Southern Reporter, Second Edition will cost you around $14,566 but you don’t need to buy all those books once you know what I teach in my affordable, official, 24-hour Jurisdictionary “How to Win in Court” step-by-step self-help course.

And that’s just the Second Edition. If your case were in one of these states (before the internet) you’d have to have access to the First and Third Editions. And, in addition (no pun intended) you’d need nearly $50,000 worth of National Reporters to have complete access to all federal cases, including U.S. Supreme Court cases, to be “in the know”.

Ahhh. How sweet the internet, because today we have access to all of this for pennies … and it’s all searchable using Boolean operators(also explained in my course).

Alright, what about “(Fla. 4th DCA, 1998)”?

That’s even easier! The case is clearly in the appellate courts of Florida. It is from the Fourth District Court of Appeal (operating from West Palm Beach). The case was decided in 1998.

See? I do know how to make this stuff easy! Right?

Who said law is too hard for pro se people to learn?

If someone said that to you, it’s probably because they just didn’t know that my course exists and is affordable!

YOU WILL LOSE … if you don’t learn how to cite “legal authority” as explained clearly in my official step-by-step, 24-hour Jurisdictionary“How to Win in Court” course!

The only opinions that count in court are the recorded opinions of appellate justices who stand in judgment over trial level judges and have power to reverse them if they disagree with the appellate courts’ decisions in any way!

Your opinions of law count for nothing in court.

You must know how to (1) find appellate court opinions that control your judge and (2) know how to properly cite those cases in the papers you file and the statements you make in open court.

Show the judge the law so he knows the appellate court will reverse his decision if he rules against YOU!

This is how smart pro se people win!

Winning in Court Means Learning Not to Lose

04 Aug

How to Lose in Court …

Win with Jurisdictionary!Too many pro se people lose in court, and today’s Tips & Tactics will tell you why!

Pro se people often send me papers to review.

Almost always, they write critically important papers as if they were “telling a story”!

BIG MISTAKE!

Effective lawsuit Complaints and responses to complaints (Answers and Defenses) and motions, legal memoranda, and other papers you must file in court (if you want to win) are not “stories”.

Do NOT tell a story!

For example, consider your pleadings – the first papers you file (whether your filing a Complaint as plaintiff or filing an Answer and Affirmative Defenses as defendant).

Your pleadings are the MOST IMPORTANT PAPERS you will file … SO THEY MUST BE WRITTEN PROPERLY!

Your pleadings say what you’re fighting about!

BUT!

They are not stories or “letters to the judge”.

If you don’t write the way Jurisdictionary teaches, you set yourself up for defeat right out of the box, even before the fight begins!

Pleadings have a purpose.

The purpose of pleadings is NOT TO TELL A STORY!

The same goes for all papers you file in court, motions, memoranda, etc. … but especially for pleadings.

Your Complaint (if you’re a plaintiff”) or Answer and Affirmative Defenses (if you’re a defendant) must be written in so it will accomplish 3 things:

  1. Allege the court has jurisdiction over the issues,
  2. Allege the necessary ultimate facts required to establish your right to a favorable judgment, and
  3. Demand judgment (and jury trial if wished).

You’ll have an opportunity to “tell your story” later with motions, memoranda, and discovery weapons as explained in the official 24-hour, step-by-step Jurisdictionary “How to Win in Court” course !

In more than 25 years as a licensed attorney, I can tell you most lawyers don’t get it … and that works to your advantage once you know what my course will teach you in just 24 hours!

Most lawyers did not learn how to write pleadings in law school. They weren’t taught about the “essential elements of causes of action”, for example. It’s true!

If you draft your papers properly (the Jurisdictionary way , of course)you’ll have a significant advantage over your opponents!

If you “tell a story” you’ll just make it easier for the other side to win!

#1 … Lawyers are famous for chasing rabbits and going on fishing expeditions. They are paid by the hour, after all! The more they write, the more they get paid. You aren’t being paid by the hour. Write little. Accomplish much!

#2 … If you write more than necessary, you give the other side more opportunities to chase rabbits and fish for facts that will not help you win!

#3 Proving a simple lawsuit is hard enough. The more facts you put in controversy, the more work you have to do.

#4 … It’s just plain stupid (unless you’re being paid by the hour) to allege more facts than the facts you must prove to win?

#5 … Judges don’t like to read. Judges are busy. Yours is not their only case! The more work you make the judge do to understand your side of the case, the more angry and frustrated the judge will become. That can’t work in your favor!

Demanding to see the judge’s oath of office won’t help.

Force Your Opponents to Pay Up!

01 Aug

 

Win with Jurisdictionary! 

Even experienced lawyers fail to force their opponents to meet the Burden of Proof.

It’s like making your enemies “pay up”, to prove what they say!

You never have to prove you don’t owe!

Nor are you required to prove your dog didn’t bite your neighbor, or your driving didn’t cause the accident.

Everyone demanding any right in court has a burden to prove they’re entitled to have the court enforce the right!

If they can’t meet their burden, they lose and, if you’re the defendant, you win!

Of course, if you’re a plaintiff, it’s your job to meet the burden of proof to show you deserve the court’s favor.

Knowing how the burden works (there’s quite a bit more to it than I can explain in this short newsletter) gives you power to win instead of being just another victim!

The burden is always on the party making claims.

The burden is never on defenders – unless the burden shifts once the claimant meets his burden of proof.

In civil cases, the burden is met by presenting the greater weight of admissible evidence (sometimes called the “preponderance of evidence”) in support of the fact elements necessary to prevail on at least one “cause of action” (explained in the course and essential knowledge, if you want to win).

In criminal cases, the state’s burden is met only by presenting evidence that proves the fact elements of the crimes alleged beyond and to the exclusion of any reasonable doubt.

The burden of proof is always on the party asserting a claim, making a motion, demanding a right, etc.

Before a court can lawfully grant relief of any kind, the party seeking relief must carry his burden to prove he’s entitled to relief … whether the case is civil or criminal.

Some may say, “It’s just your word against his.”

That’s never true in court.

One side always has the burden.

Just like in a tennis match, the ball is always on one side of the net!

The burden of proof may shift back and forth during a complicated lawsuit, depending on who claims what and when, however the burden is always on the side seeking relief at any particular moment, the party making a claim, the litigant moving the court, the claimant alleging a fact, etc.

WARNING:

Lawyers will try to put you “on the defensive”.

Lawyers will try to trick you into struggling to prove a negative, e.g., that you didn’t do something or that something did not happen. Don’t get sucked in!

People who don’t have the official Jurisdictionary “How to Win in Court” course go out of their way to show they were out of town that day or confined to a wheelchair or otherwise struggle to dis-prove something that is entirely the burden of the other side to prove.

This is what crooked lawyers do.

BEWARE!

BE WISE!

If a defendant ignorantly tries to dis-prove what his opponent has the burden to prove, his opponent is spared the labor of proving his case! The waters are muddied. The real issues get lost. The judge gets sidetracked. And YOU come out on the short end of the stick every time!

Smart people who use the official Jurisdictionary “How to Win in Court” course know how to move the court to take judicial noticethat “the burden is on the moving party to prove whatever he claims” and, if the other side cannot prove what he claims, Jurisdictionary students know how to move the court for summary judgment and put an end to their troubles then-and-there!

Put the ball in the court where it belongs!

How to Control the Courts Using On-Line Legal Research

27 Jul

How to Find Appellate Cases that Control Judges!

You cannot win without controlling judges.

You cannot control judges unless you research and cite controlling “legal authority” for every point you seek to make on the court’s record!

Read on to see what you will learn with the official and affordable step-by-step, 24-hour JurisdictionaryHow to Win in Court” self-help course.

The judge is not the authority!Control Judges with Jurisdictionary!

If you want to win in court, you must make it crystal clear on the court’s official record that the judge will be reversed on appeal if he rules against you!

Nothing else matters!

If the judge thinks he can rule against you and get away with it, guess what!

If the judge knows you haven’t made your record for appeal before the case is concluded at the trial level, he is free to ignore everything you did and rule any way he pleases in spite of what the law and facts may prove to the contrary because he knows he cannot be reversed on appeal because you didn’t make your record!

The appeal process will not give you another bite at the proverbial apple.

Either you make your points with the trial judge by citing “legal authority” that controls him, or you run the risk of losing your case and being stuck with the decision forever!

Don’t believe me?

Tell a judge what your personal opinions are about the law and how you think he should rule in your case, and see how far it gets you!

YOU WILL LOSE … if you don’t learn how to cite “legal authority” as explained clearly in the official step-by-step, 24-hour Jurisdictionary“How to Win in Court” course!

The only opinions that count in court are the written opinions of appellate court justices who stand in judgment over trial level judges and have power to reverse them if they disagree with the appellate decisions in any way!

Your opinions count for nothing in court.

You must control the judge by citing official authorities from controlling appellate decisions, so the judge knows he will be reversed if he rules against you!

This is how smart lawyers win!

Stupid lawyers are afraid of judges.

Stupid lawyers are afraid to threaten appeal.

Stupid lawyers lose … routinely!

Controlling judges is what wins lawsuits!

 

 

How to Fight Fraud

19 Jul
Win with Jurisdictionary!Today’s Tips & Tactics will help all of you who are fighting banks, credit card companies, and anyone else who fraudulently claims you owe them money!
If you’re an honest person being sued by a dishonest creditor, today’s Tips & Tactics may save you a load of cash … if you do things the way you’ll learn in myofficial affordable 24-hour step-by step  Jurisdictionary self-help course!

There’s a reason for the phrase, “Put it in writing!”

Every jurisdiction we know of adopts a common law principle known as the “Statute of Frauds” so people wishing to sue you for any promise they say you made to them must offer written evidence of that promise …signed by you!

No writing, no lawsuit.

It could be a mortgage, promissory note, lease, credit card application, or any other promise they say you made.

In some states, if the promise was to perform some service that was to be performed in less than one year, or to pay less than $500 for some item like a lawn mower or bicycle, no writing is required … but if the promise was for more than a year or more than a small amount of money, the Statute of Frauds bars the lawsuitif there is no writing signed by you!

So, what’s the first thing you do when you’re sued for a promise you did not make?You demand to see the original writing that bears your signature!

How do you do that?

You use what’s called a Request for Production. The other side has a certain time period within which to comply. If they don’t produce (and many times they’ll put up some bogus objection) you file a Motion to Compel Production and set your motion for hearing. If you do this the way we teach in our 24-hour step-by-step Jurisdictionary self-help course, the judge will ORDER them to produce … and if they fail to obey the order their case will be dismissed!

You do not use a subpoena to get documents from the opposing party. You use a Request for Production, and you can use it to get other things as well, if they will likely lead to the discovery of admissible evidence.

Help Your Friends!

I explain in the Jurisdictionary course how a client came to me after being sued by Sears for a credit card debt. He told me he never had a Sears card, so I served the plaintiff with a Request for Production demanding to see “every document signed by the defendant”. Sears had 30 days to respond.

On the 29th day I got a call from Sears’ lawyer saying they couldn’t find any documents signed by my client and asking for an extension of time.

I refused.

The case was dismissed.

Because of the present economic crisis, some judges make an effort to lean favorably toward creditors who come to court without sufficient evidence. If you don’t know what we teach in the Jurisdictionary course, you might find yourself on the short end of a long judgment against you for a debt you truly do not owe. It’s happening far too frequently.

Of course the practice of requiring the other side to prove their case (using Requests for Production and your other powerful evidence discovery tools) is a practice you cannot afford to ignore.

Proof is what lawsuits are all about.

Learn how to prove your position … and how to force the other side to prove theirs!

Losers believe in fables and get their legal education at the barbershop or expensive weekend seminars or websites run by people who never practiced law, never went to law school, and don’t know mud from sand about the rules of court or how to use them to prevent fraud.

Protect yourself from lawyers and judges!

It’s easy, once you understand “due process”.

Due process IS your most valuable right.

Due process is your most valuable right, because without the ability to win in court, the rest of your “rights” are just political rhetoric, promises with no power.

The Constitution of the United States promises you the protection of due process, but it doesn’t tell you what due process is or how to get it!

Jurisdictionary was created by a lawyer with more than 23 years of experience winning lawsuits!
