Hahaha holy poo poo, he's still sticking to the strategy of the feds not having jurisdiction, and wants a state government trial in Harney county, with Harney residents as jurors.

quote:

18) Nor was there any facts alleged where defendant Ryan Bundy, waived his right as a traveler sojourning peacefully in the state Oregon under Article I, section 11; to be tried in the county in which he was arrested.

FREEMAN ON THE LAND

This is great, the judge has to deny his self-representation now, right? he's filed nothing but ridiculous claims at this point.

The more I read the more amazing it gets, page 7 (of 20!) starts a 3-page history of the Magna Carta and Medieval Laws, featuring trials by ordeal, Oliver Cromwell and William Penn.

quote:

The problems of jury trials
Juries can go very wrong, especially in ‘terrorist’ cases (see the ‘Birmingham Six’ and the ‘Guildford Four’). They give no reasons for their verdicts, and their deliberations are swathed in unnecessary secrecy.

And now he's disputing what a 'state' is, according to an 1870 law dictionary.

He keeps saying 'vicinage' is that a real legal term, or a latin-based word he's using to make himself seem smarter?

Uh oh, he's using a normal-ish signature, i guess the secret government mind control/boat program got to him

quote:

Respectfully submitted this 9th day of August 2016.

/s/ Ryan C. Bundy
Ryan C. Bundy
In Propria Persona, Sui Juris

20 pages of this nonsense :stare:

I wonder if the judge's response will be "This is America, there are no Crowns" :fuckoff:

Ok, so I guess that means he gets his pro se status revoked, since he brought up jurisdiction again, right?

No, the jurisdictional matters have already been ruled upon (unsurprisingly, the feds have jurisdiction) and the judge filed an order prohibiting Bundy to contest it again since even if the feds didn't have jurisdiction the deadline to bring up that argument had already passed.

I'm pretty sure he knows that he isn't allowed to bring up jurisdiction again, which is why the motion is titled "motion to quash jury pool" even though he talks about jurisdiction for 17 out of 20 pages. As far as I can tell his argument for the titular quash is that the jury pool wasn't drawn from just a single division of the district, but from the entire district; as authority he cites a citation in another case:

United States v. Herbert, 698 F.2d 981, 984 (1983) posted:

A petit jury may be drawn constitutionally from only one division and not the whole district.
Ruthenberg v. United States, 245 U.S. 480, 38 S.Ct. 168, 62 L.Ed. 414 (1918); United States v. Cates, 485 F.2d 26, 29 (1st Cir.1974). United States v. Herbert, 698 F.2d 981, 984 (1983)
but (and I'm not a lawyer)... as far as I can tell Ruthenberg v. US held that a jury may be drawn from one division, it doesn't say it must be drawn from only one division instead of from the whole district. i.e. it is not an error to only pick from one division.

To be what he wants, he'd want wording like

A petit jury may ONLY be drawn constitutionally from only one division and not the whole district.

Feds recommended a low sentence, sentencing to be held after the trial ends. Hmmm.

All 10 of them? I've been going every day to try to see anything wild. So far it's just been a tiny group doing "marches" around the courthouse and getting honked at by BMWs when they block the road. I also met a horse enthusiast who was there just to hang out around the horse they dragged in.

Yes. Or rather, yes and with very few exceptions. If a court doesn't have jurisdiction over the person or the subject matter then it has no authority to render any decision and that can be raised at any time; even on appeal. I don't even think its something that can be waived by a party.

edit: nevermind, i didn't read the whole discussion before jumping in. in the context of Bundy, he's raised it and it has been ruled on and the court is well within its rights to sanction him if he keeps bringing it up. in the context of, can he raise it again on appeal; absolutely and at every stage of the appeal.

Judge Brown has warned him that if he keeps bringing stuff up that she ruled on already she's going to take away his right to represent himself. To my naive understanding it seems like she's in a hard situation. She has to weigh how much bullshit she's going to allow him to do in the proceedings, versus bringing the hammer down and further delegitimizing herself in the eyes of the mulletia (pun lol). Obviously they don't think highly of any government entity, but even the perceived slight of not letting him poo poo up the courtroom could be dangerous.

She's not worried about public opion, she's worried about a conviction being overturned if she takes away his right to self-represent and having to do the whole thing over again.

I believe you cannot prosecute a dead person which means, for example, Kenneth Lay who died during the appeal of his conviction is in the eyes of the law innocent and that can't ever be changed.
