MOTION TO DISMISS,

WIT

H CAUSE

Defendant NOTICES this court

of

his appearance ( on or before... ) via written correspondence

because Defendant will NOT be in the State, and likely the Country, on the date specified in the

alleged  Summons due to scheduled business projectst') requiring his attention, and thus cannot

appear in person on said date or in that time frame , and appears and defends herein.

Defendan

ts

intent is to simply stand on his rights as provided in the Constitution and through

Supreme Court precedent, since n

ow

those rights are being challenged.

Ift

his court lacks

jurisdiction to dismiss or adjudicate these lawful and constitutional issues, please forward to the

proper court for disposition. Defendant moves this court to dismiss this alleged violat ion of the

 Peace and Dignity

of

the People

of

the State

of

Colorado for the following lawful and

constitutional reasons;

I . There is no such lawful entity called  The People

of the State ofColorado  or  THE PEOPLE

OF THE STATE OF COLORADO registered with the Colorado Secretary

of

State  s office.

(See Exhibits A, B, C, and D). The U.S. Court

of

Appeals, Ten th Circuit, did NOT recognize

this alleged entity as having any suable value in a claim in court or was any kind of a legal

entity  (See Exhibit B, P.3  8). Based on the evidence, this appears to be a ficti tious entity until

proven otherwise, and cannot move against Defendant.

2. Given that The People of the State ofColorado or  THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF

COLORADO has no standing (which is herein challenged) to move against Defendant, there

must be another entity or group that represents this name on the alleged legal summons since it is

being used in court documents in a legal and fiduciary capacity. If it truly represents the private

People and citizens

of

the State

of

Colorado, as it purports to, there MUST be, by law, a

complaining party whose peace and dignity  was damaged in a cogni tive and real way, with

evidence

of

same .

There is no signed complaint from anyone representing the People of the State ofColorado or,

 

Defendant has been engaged with national and international business projects involving government and

banking officials, and can be called to travel at any given time at a moments notice, or pre-arranged meetings, to

State or International destinations to meet with officials according to their schedules.

 THE

PEOPLE OF

THE

STATE OF COLORADO  w ho has or had an   Injury in Fact

 e)

traceable to the alleged violation or by any actions, or lack thereof, ofDefendant, and therefore,

Standing is lacking in this instant case until proven on record.r ) and the case should be

dismissed.r ) In what way would an expired Drivers   license cause harm to the   peace and

dignity ofANY Colorado inhabitant? Evidence must be of record.

3. The Summons is facially void. Under FRCP, Rule 4 - Summons, the summons

MUST

,

among other things...  (F) be sign ed by the clerk; and (G) bear the court s seal.   The Summons,

signed by Defendant unde r   1-308 Reservation ofRights, (further rights declared in Exhibit

C, listed infra) lacks these two required features, and therefore, is invalid.

4. Defendant challenges any alleged law which requires  im to apply for a Drivers License

when he is NOT acting in any c

omm

ercial capacity which would be a privilege which requires a

  Drivers License for carrying on with said   Driving for c

omm

ercial profit.

Defendant is acting in his private right to freely travel without interference or license which is

upheld by the

V .S.

Supreme and other Courts in dozens of cases . (See Exhibit E, Brief).

5.

If

a drivers license were required lawfully and constitutionally for Defendant, said license

ultimately belongs to the state, and is to be surrendered if demanded, thus the State is responsible

to provide notice

of

expiration warnings. No reminder or mail notice

of

said expiration was

provided by the state to Defendant. This appears to be an easy way to collect more revenue

when someone does not know their license  is expired, rarely having to use said license. Only

law enforcement is the likely one to see this and, of course, ticket the individual, with the help of

2

Injury in

Fac

t:   ...at an irreducible minimum, the constitut ional requisites und

er

Arti cle

 

for the

existence of standing arc that the

party

seeking to sue must pers

onally

have suffered some actual or threatened injury

that can fairl y be traced to the challenged acti on of defendant and that the injury is likely to be redressed by a

favorable decision . Valley Forge Christian College v, Americans United 454 U.S. 464, 472 (1982);

  ll

en v. Wright 

468 U.S. 737, 751 ( 1984); Luj an v. De enders o Wildlife  112Ct.2130,2 136 (1992).

3 There are three requirements for Article III standing : ( 1) injury in fact, which

mean

s an invasion of a

legally protected interest that is (a) concrete and particularized,

and (b)

actual or imminent,

not

conjec

tur

aJ or

hypothetical; (2) a causal relationship between the inj ury and the cha llenged conduct, which means that the injury

fairly

can

be traced to the challenged action of the defendant,

and

has

not

resulted from the independent act ion of

some third party no t before the court; and (3) a likelihood that the injury will be redressed by a favorable decision,

which means tha t the p

rospe

ct of obtaining re l

ie f

from the injury as a result of a favorable ruling is not too

speculative. Lujan v, De enders o Wildlife  112 S. Ct. 2 130, 2 136  1992) .

4  Constitutional requirements for standing,

and

hence. exercise of the

judici

al power of gove

rnm

ent, are set

forth in the two-

step

Wimberly test, which is satisfied if:   I the plaintilTwas injured in fact, and 2) that injurywas

to a legal right protected by statutory provisions

which

alle gedly havc been violated.

Wimberly

v.

Ellenberg 570

P.2d 535

Co

lo.,1977  If a p

ers

on suffers no injury in fact or sulTcrs injury in fact

but

not from violat

ion

of legal

right, no re l

ie f

can he alTorded and case should be dismissed for lack of standing.

the State.

6. Lastly, the City of Pagosa Springs picked this fight , Defendant did not, but now must respond.

We could have started this 10 years ago had we wanted to. Now that it has been initiated, if the

City of Pagosa Springs, and related court/Magistrate/Judge, believe Defendant does NOT have

the lawful, Constitutional rights as stated herein, or the Court precedent provided is wrong, and

that the entity named in the summons is a legal entity, defendant demands  F inding

of

Facts and

Conclusions of Law on any and all rulings that counter Defendants' cites and evidence, or it will

have to be escalated to the next level.

Defendant s Oath to uphold the ConstitutiorrS has not stopped, thus he MUST stand where said

Constitution and rights are clear. Any error that invalidates the evidence presented should be

forthcoming. We are either a Constitutional nation of rights and common laws, or have moved

from the Constitution and original intent

oflaw

into tyranny and oppression under the color of

law.t )

The Defendant Accused therefore moves the court of proper

ju

risdiction to dismiss the charge

against him, with prejudice.

  Color of Law: .....it s a federal crime for anyone acting under color o

fl

aw willfully to deprive or

conspire to deprive a person of a righ t protected by the Constitution or U.S. law.  Co lor of law' simply means that

the person is using authority given to

him

or her

by

a loca l. state. or federal government

agency.

https:llwww.fbi.gov/about-uslinvestigateleivilrights/color_oC law

For the purpose ofTITLE 18, U.S.c., SECTION 242, acts under  color oflaw include acts not only done

by federal, state, or local officials with in the their lawful authority, but also acts done beyond the bounds

of

that

official's lawful authority, if the acts are done while the official is purporting to or pretending to act in the

performance

of his/her

official duties. Persons acting under color o fl w within the meaning

of this

statute include

police officers, prisons guards and other law enforcement officials, as well as judges, care providers in public

health facilities ,

 nd

oth ers who  rc acting as pu lic offici als . It is not nece ssary that the crime be moti vated by

the State ofColorado is entitled to all prosecutions in the name People of the State

for

stice against an accused citizen, why not such citizen

against the State when the same language equally comprehends both? The rights

of

the People

and the justice due to them are as dear and precious as those of States . Indeed, the latter are

founded upon the former, and the great end and object of them must be to secure and support the

rights

of the People, or else vain is government.

The United States Distric t Court has stated and ruled in 1996-1997 that the Plaintiff Schroder

  ....failed to name any suable entity as Defendant ...  People ofthe State ofColorado  . (See

Exhibit A). Absent a real party o

fi

nterest, or injured party, the People of the State of Colorado

and the   THE PEOPLE OF THE STATEOF COLORADO are not a verified injured party in

fact, thus revealing a fictitious Plaint

if f

moving against Defendant.

 S uability   and   suable are words not in common use, but they concisely and correctly convey

the idea annexed to them.

A rule is said to be a bad one, inconceivable and unconscionable, which does not work both

ways; the citizens ofColorado are not content with a claimed right of the State to be a Plaintiff

and Prosecutor under a pseudonym to sue/prosecute them without a real party of interest, and

then also claim it is not a suable entity.

BRIEF IN SUPPORT   NOTICE FOR DISMISS L

FOR L CK OF JURISDICTION

NOW, comes the Defendant/Accused, appearing specially and not generally or voluntarily, but

under threat of arrest

ifhe

failed to do so, with this   BRIEF IN SUPPORT OF NOTICE FOR

DISMISSAL FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION, stating as follows:

ARGUM NT

If ever ajudge understood the public s right to use the public roads, it was Justice Tolman of the

Supreme Court ofthe State of Washington. Justice Tolman stated:

  Complete freedom of the highways is so old and well established a blessing that we have

forgotten the days of the Robber Barons and toll roads, and yet, under an act like this, arbitrarily

administered, the highways may be completely monopolized, if, through lack

of

interest, the

people submit, then they may look to see the most sacred

of

their liberties taken from them one

by one, by more or less rapid encroachment.

Robertson v epartment of Public Works 180 Wash 133, 147.

The words of Justice Tolman ring most prophetically in the ears of Citizens throughout the

country today as the use of the public roads has been monopolized by the very entity which has

been empowered to stand guard over our freedoms, i.e., that of state government.

RIGHTS

The most sacred

of

liberties

of

which Justice Tolman spoke was personal liberty. The

definition of personal liberty is:

 Personal liberty, or the Rig ht to enjoyment oflife and liberty, is one of the fundamental or

natural Rights, which has been protected by its inclusion as a guarantee

 n

the various

constitutions, which is not derived from, or dependent on, the U.S. Constitution, which may not

be submitted to a vote and may not depend on the outcome of an election. It is one of the most

sacred and valuable Rights, as sacred as the Right to private property ... and is regarded as

inalienable.

16 C.J .S., Constitutional Law, Sect.202, p.987

This concept is further amplified by the definition of personal liberty:

  Personal liberty largely cons ists of the Right of locomotion -- to go where and when one

pleases -- only so far restrained

as

the Rights

of

others may make it necessary for the welfare

of

all other citizens. The Right of the Citizen to travel upon the public highways and to transport his

property thereon, by horse drawn carriage, wagon, or automobile, is not a mere privilege which

may be permitted or prohibited at will, but the common Right which he has under his Right to

life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Under this Constitutional guarantee one may, therefore,

under normal conditions, travel at his inclination along the public highways or in public places,

and while conducting hims

elf

in an orderly and decent manner, neither inte

rf

ering with nor

disturbing another s Rights, he will be protected, not only in his person, but in his safe conduct.

II Am.Jur.   st) Constitutional Law, Sect.329, p l 35

and further ...

  Personal liberty -- consists of the power of locomotion, of changing situations, of removing

one s person to whatever place one s inclination may direct, without imprisonment or restraint

unless by due process of law.

Bouvier s Law Dictionary, 1914 ed., Black s Law Dictionary, 5th ed.;

Blackstone s Commentary 134;

Hare, Constitution, Pg. 777

Justice Tolman was concerned about the State prohibiting the Citizen from the   most sacred of

his liberties, the Right ofmovement, the Right of moving one s selffrom place to place without

threat of imprisonment, the Right to use the public roads in the ordinary course of life.

When the State allows the formation of a corporation it may control its creation by establishing

guidelines (statutes) for its operation (charters). Corporations who use the roads in the course of

business do not use the roads in the ordinary course of life. There is a difference between a

corporation and an individual. The United States Supreme Court has stated:

 ...We are of the opinion that there is a clear distinction in this particular between an individual

and a corporation, and that the latter has no right to refuse to submit its books and papers for

examination on the suit of the State. The individual may stand upon his Constitutional Rights as

a Citizen. He is entitled to carry on his private business in his own way. His power to contract is

unlimited. He owes no duty to the State or to his neighbors to divulge his business, or to open his

doors to investigation, so far as it may tend to incriminate him. He owes no such duty to the

State, since he receives nothing therefrom, beyond the protection of his life, liberty, and property.

His Rights are such as the law of the land long antecedent to the organization of the state, and

can only be taken from him by due process of law, and in accordance with the Cons titution .

Among his Rights are the refusal to incriminate himself, and the immunity

of

himself and his

property from arrest or seizure except under warrant

oflaw

He owes nothing to the public so

long as he does not trespass upon their rights.

Upon the other hand, the corporation is a creature of the state. It is presumed to be

incorporated for the benefit

ofthe

public.   receives certain special privileges and franchises, and

holds them subject to the laws of the state and the limitations of its charter. Its rights to act as a

corporation are only preserved to it so long as it obeys the laws of its creation. There is a reserved

right in the legislature to investigate its contracts and find out whether it has exceeded its powers.

 

would be a strange anomaly to hold that the State, having chartered a corporation to make use

of certain franchises, could not in exercise

of

its sovereignty inquire

how

those franchises had

been employed, and whether they had been abused, and demand the production of corporate

books and papers for that purpose.

Hale vs Hinkel 201 US 43, 74-75

Corporations engaged in mercantile equity fall under the purview of the State s admiralty

jurisdiction, and the public at large must be protected from their activities, as they (the

corporations) are engaged in business for profit.

 ... Based upon the fundamental ground that the sovereign state has the plenary control of the

streets and highways in the exercise

of

its police power (see police power, infra.), may absolutely

prohibit the use of the streets as a place for the prosec ution of a private business for gain. They

all recognize the fundamental distinction between the ordinary Right of the Citizen to use the

streets in the usual way and the use of the streets as a place of business or a main instrumentality

of business for private gain. The former is a common Right, the latter is an extraordinary use. As

to the former, the legislative power is confined to regulation, as to the latter, it is plenary and

extends even to absolute prohibition. Since the use ofthe streets by a common carrier in the

prosecution of its business as such is not a right but a mere license of privilege.

Hadfieldvs  Lundin

98 Wash 516

It will be necessary to review early cases and legal authority in order to reach a lawfully correct

theory dealing with this Right or  p rivilege.  We will attempt to reach a sound conclusion as to

what is a  R ight to use the road and what is a privilege to use the road . Once reaching this

determination, we shall then apply those positions to modem case decision.

 W here rights secured by the Constitution are involved, there can be no rule making or

legislation which would abrogate them.

 The Right

prohibit or permit at will , but a common Right which he has under the right to life, liberty, and

Thompson vs  Smith   154 SE 579

So we can see that a Citizen has a Right to travel upon the public highways by automobile and

the Citizen cannot be rightfully deprived

of

his Liberty. So where does the misconception that the

use

ofthe

public road is always and only a privilege come from?

 ... For while a Citizen has the Right to travel upon the public highways and to transport his

property thereon, that Right does not extend to the use of the highways, either in whole or in part ,

as a place for private gain. For the latter purpose, no person has a vested right to use the

highways

the state, bu t is a privilege or a license which the legislature may grant or withhold

Here the court held that a Citizen has the Right to travel upon the public highways but that he

did not have the right to conduct business upon the highways. On this point of l

 w

all authorities

are unanimous.

 Heretofore the court has held   and we think correctly  that while a Citizen has the Right to

travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon  that Right does not extend

 The right of the Citizen to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property

thereon, in the ordinary course

of

life and business, is a common right which he has under the

right to enjoy life and liberty, to acquire and possess property, and to pursue happiness and

safety.

includes the right, in so doing , to use the ordinary and usual conveyances of the day, and

under the existing modes

of

travel , includes the right to drive a horse drawn carriage or wagon

thereon or to operate an automobile thereon, for the usual and ordinary purpose of life and

business. 

Thompson vs. Smith ,

supra.;

Teche Lines vs. Danf orth,

Miss 12 S.2d 784

There is no dissent among various authorities as to this position.  See Am. Jur. [1st] Const. Law,

329 and corresponding Am. Jur. [2nd].)

 Personal liberty -- or the right to enjoyment of life and liberty -- is one of the fundamental or

natural rights, which has been protected by its inclusion as a guarantee in the various

constitutions, which is not derived from nor dependent on the U.S. Constitution

 

.. It is one

of

the most sacred and valuable rights [remember the words of Justice Tolman, supra.] as sacred as

the right to private property ... and is regarded as inalienable. 

16 c S Const. Law, Sect.202, Pg. 987

As we can see, the distinction between a Right to use the public roads and a  privilege to use

the public roads is drawn upon the line

of

 using the road as a place of business  and the various

state courts have held so. But what have the U.S . Courts held on this point?

 First,

 t

is well established law that the highways of the state are public property, and their

primary and preferred use is for private purposes, and that their use for purposes of gain is special

and extraordinary which, generally at least, the legislature may prohibit or condition as it sees

fit.

the individual  usin g the roads in the ordinary course

of

life and business. However, it should

be noted that extensive research has not turned up one case or authority acknowledging the state s

power to convert the individual s right to travel upon the public roads into a privilege.

Therefore, it is concluded that the Citizen does have a Right to travel and transport his property

upon the public highways and roads and the exercise

of

this Right is not a privilege.

DEFINITIONS

In order to understand the correct application of the statute in question, we must first define the

terms used in connection with this point of law. As will be shown, many terms used today do not,

in their legal context, mean what we assume they mean, thus resulting in the misapplication of

statutes in the instant case.

AUTOMOBILE AND M

OTOR

VEHICLE

There is a clear distinction between an automobile and a motor vehicle. An automobile has been

defined as:

 The word automobile connotes a pleasure vehicle designed for the transportation of persons

on highways.

m r

ican Mutual Liability Ins Co

Y

Chaput

60 A.2d 118, 120; 95 NH 200

While the distinction is made clear between the two as the courts have stated :

 A m otor vehicle or automobile for hire is a motor vehicle, other than an automobile stage,

used for the transportation ofpersons for which remuneration is received.

International Motor Transil  

Y

Seattle  

251 P. 120

The term  motor vehicle is different and broader than the word

 

utomobile.

City o fDayton Y DeBrosse 23 NE.2d 647, 650 ; 62 Ohio App. 232

 Motor v ehicle means every description or other contrivance propelled or drawn by

mechanical power and used for commercial purposes on the highways in the transportation of

passengers, or passengers and property.

 Used for commercial purposes means the carriage of persons or property for any fare, fee,

rate, charge or other considerations, or directly or indirectly in connection with any business, or

other undertaking intended for profit.

Title 18 USC 31 (6), (10)

Clearly, an automobile is private property in use for private purposes, while a motor vehicle is a

machine which may be used upon the highways for trade, commerce, or hire.

TR VEL

The term travel is a significant term and is defined as:

to include all those who rightfully use the highways viatically (when being reimbursed for

expenses) and who have occasion to pass over them for the purpose

of

business, convenience, or

pleasure. 

25 Am.1ur. (1st) Highways, Sect.427, Pg. 717

  Traveler -- One who passes from place to place, whether for pleasure, instruction, business, or

health.

Locket vs State 47 Ala. 45;

Bovier s Law Dictionary, 1914 ed., Pg. 3309

  Travel -- To journey or to pass through or over; as a c ountry district , road, etc. To go from

one place to another, whether on foot, or horseback, or in any conveyance as a train, an

automobile, carriage, ship, or aircraft; Make a journey.

Century Dictionary , Pg. 2034

Therefore, the term   travel or traveler  r efers to one who uses a conveyance to go from one

place to another, and included all those who use the highways as a matter

of

Right.

Notice that in all these definitions, the phrase for hire  never occurs. This term travel or

 traveler implies, by definition , one who uses the road as a means to move from one place to

another.

Therefore, one who uses the road in the ordinary course of

li f

e and business for the purpose of

travel and transportation is a traveler.

DRIVER

The term driver in contradistinction to traveler, is defined as:

  Driver -- One employed in conducting a coach, carriage, wagon, or other vehicle ... 

Bovier s Law Dictionary, 1914 ed., Pg. 940

Notice that this definition includes one who is   employed in conducting a vehicle.   should

not the case.

  It will be obse rved from the language o th ordinance that a distinction is to be drawn

between the terms  operator and driver ; the operator

o

the service car being the person who is

licensed to have the car on the streets in the business

o

carrying passengers for hire; while the

 driver is the one who actu ally drives the car, However, in the actual prosecution

o

business , it

was possible for the same person to be both operator and driver.

New bill vs Union Indemn ity Co 

60 SE.2d 658

To further clarify the definition of an  operator the court observed that this was a vehicl e  fo r

hire and that it was in the business of carrying passengers .

This definition would seem to describe a person who is using the road as a place o business, or

in other words, a person engaged in the  privilege o using the road for gain.

This defmition, then, is a further clarification

o

the distinction mentioned earlier, and therefore:

Traveling upon and transporting one s property upon the public roads as a matter

o

Right

meets the definition

o

a traveler.

Using the road as a place of business as a matter o privilege meets the definition o a driver or

an operator or both .

TRAFFIC

Having defined the terms automobile, motor vehicle, traveler, driver, and operator, the

next term to define is  traffic :

  ... Traffic thereon is to some extent destructive, therefo re, the prevention

o

unnecessary

duplication o auto transportation service will lengthen the life o the highways or reduce the cost

o

maintenance, the revenue derived by the state ... will also tend toward the public welfare by

producing at the expense

those operating for private gain, some small part of the cost

o

repairing the wear ...

Note: In the above, Justice Tolman expounded upon the key

o

raising revenue by taxing the

 pri vilege to use the public roads at the expense of those operating for gain.

this case, the word traffic   is used   conjunction with the unnecessary Auto Transportation

Service, or in other words ,  v ehicles for hire. The word traffic is another word which is to be

strictly construed to the conducting of business .

 Traffic -- Commerce, trade, sale or exchange

of

merchandise, bills, money, or the like. The

passing of goods and commodities from one person to another for an equivalent in goods or

money ...

Bovier's Law Dictionary, 1914 ed., Pg. 3307

Here again, notice that this definition refers to one  conducting business. No mention is made of

one who is traveling in his automobile. This definition is of one who is engaged in the passing of

a commodity or goods in exchange for money, i.e .., vehicles for hire.

Furthermore, the words traffic and  travel must have different meanings which the courts

recognize. The difference is recognized in Ex Parte Dickey supra:

 ...in addition to this, cabs, hackney coaches, omnibuses, taxicabs, and hacks, when

unnecessarily numerous, interfere with the ordinary traffic and travel and obstruct them.

The court, by using both terms, signified its recognition

of

a distinction between the two. But,

what was the distinction? We have already defined both terms, but to clear up any doubt:

 The word ' traffic' is manifestly used here in secondary sense, and has reference to the

business of transportation rather than to its primary meaning

of

interchange of commodities.

llen vs  City o Bellingham

163 P. 18

Here the Supreme Court

of

the State

of

Washington has defined the word traffic (in either its

primary or secondary sense) in reference to business, and not to mere travel So it is clear that the

term traffic is business related and therefore, it is a  privilege. The net result being that

 traffic  is brought under the (police) power of the legislature. The term has no application to one

who is not using the roads as a place

of

business.

LI ENSE

  seems only proper to define the word  license, as the definition

of

this word will be extremely

important in understanding the statutes as they are properly applied :

 The permission, by competent authority to do an act which without permission, would be

illegal, a trespass, or a tort.

People vs Henderson  218 NW.2d 2, 4

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/right-to-travel-brief-in-support-of-notice-for-dismissal-and-supplement 26/41

In

order for these two definitions to apply in this case, the state would have to take up the

position that the exercise

of

a Constitutional Right to use the public roads in the ordinary course

oflife and business is illegal, a trespass, or a tort, which the state could then regulate or prevent.

This position, however, would raise magnitudinous Constitutional questions as this position

would be diametrically opposed to fundamental Constitutional Law. See  Conversion

of

a Right

to a Crime, infra.)

In the instant case, the proper definition

of a license is:

 a permit, granted by an appropriate governmental body, generally for consideration, to a

person, firm, or corporation, to pursue some occupation or to can y on some business which is

subject to regulation under the police power.  

Rosenblatt vs  California State Board

o

harmacy 

158 P.2d 199 203

This defin ition would fall more in line with the privilege

of

carrying on business on the streets .

Most people tend to think that licensing is imposed by the state for the purpose of raising

revenue, yet there may well be more subtle reasons contemplated; for when one seeks permission

from someone to do something he invokes the jurisdiction

of

the licensor which, in this case, is

the state . In essence, the licensee may well be seeking to be regulated by the licensor.

  license fee is a charge made primarily for regulation, with the fee to cover costs and

expenses

of

supervision or regulation.

State vs Jackson

60 Wisc .2d 700; 211 NW.2d 480, 487

The fee is the price; the regulation or control ofthe licensee is the real aim

of

the legislation.

Are these licenses really used to fund legitimate government, or are they nothing more than a

subtle introduction of police power into every facet of our lives? Have our enforcement

agencies been diverted from crime prevention, perhaps through no fault of their own, instead

now busying themselves as they  check  our papers to see that all are properly endorsed by the

state?

How much longer will it be before we are forced to get a license for our lawn mowers, or before

our wives will need a license for her blender or mixer? They all have motors on them and the

state can always use the revenue.

police power has affixed a penalty to a certain act, or where it requires licenses to be obtained

and a certain sum be paid for certain occupations. The power used in the instant case cannot,

however, be the power

of

taxation since an attempt to levy a tax upon a Right would be open to

Constitutional objection. (See taxing power, infra.)

Each law relating to the use

of

police power must ask three questions:

 Is there threatened danger?

Does a regulation involve a Constitutional Right?

Is this regulation reasonable?

People vs  Smith  

108 Am.St.Rep. 715;

Bovier's Law Dictionary , 1914 ed., under  Police Power

When applying these three questions to the statute in question, some very important issues

emerge.

First, is there a threatened danger in the individual using his automobile on the public

highways, in the ordinary course of li fe and business?

The answer is No There is nothing inherently dangerous in the use

of

an automobile when it is

carefully managed. Their guidance, speed, and noise are subject to a quick and easy control, and

under a competent and considerate manager,  t is as harmless on the road as a horse and buggy.

 t is the manner ofmanaging the automobile, and that alone, which threatens the safety of the

public. The ability to stop quickly and to respond quickly to guidance would seem to make the

automobile one

of

the least dangerous conveyances. (See Yale Law Journal, December, 1905.)

 The automobile is not inherently dangerous.

Cohens vs Meadow  

89 SE 876;

Blair vs  Broadmore  93 SE 532

To deprive all persons of the Right to use the road in the ordinary course

of

life and business,

because one might, in the future, become dangerous, would be a deprivation not only ofthe Right

to travel , but also the Right to due process . (See Due Process, infra.)

Next; does the

regulation

involve a Constitutional Right

This question has already been addressed and answered in this brief, and need not be reinforced

other than to remind this Court that this Citizen does have the Right to travel upon the public

highway by automobile in the ordinary course oflife and business.   can ther

ef

ore be concluded

that this regulation does involve a Constitutional Right. The third question is the most important

in this case.

 Is this regulation reasonable?

The answer is No

It

will be shown later in Regulation, infra., that this licensing statute is

oppressive and could be effectively administered by less oppressive means .

Although the Fourteenth Amendment does not interfere with the proper exercise

of

the police

power, in accordance with the general principle that the power must be exercised so as not to

invade unreasonably the rights guaranteed by the United States Constitution, it is established

beyond question that every state power, including the police power, is limited by the Fourteenth

Amendment (and others) and by the inhibitions there imposed.

Moreover, the ultimate test

of

the propriety of police power regulations must be found in the

Fourteenth Amendment, since it operates to limit the field of the police power to the extent of

preventing the enforcement

of statutes in denial of Rights that the Amendment protects. (See

Parks vs. State 64 NE 682.)

 With regard particularly to the U.S. Constitution, it is elementary that a Right secured or

protected by that document cannot be overthrown or impaired by any state police authority.

 No person shall be ... deprived of Life, Liberty, or Property without due process

of

law.

As has been shown, the courts at all levels have firmly established an absolute Right to travel.

In the instant case, the state, by applying commercial statutes to all entities, natural and artificial

persons alike, has deprived this free and natural person of the Right

of

Liberty, without cause and

without due process of law.

DUE PRO  SS

 The essential elements of due process oflaw are ... Notice and The Opportunity to defend.

Simon vs Craft

182 US 427

Yet, not one individual has been given notice of the loss ofh islher Right, let alone before signing

the license contract). Nor was the Citizen given any opportunity to defend against the loss of

his/her right to travel, by automobile, on the highways, in the ordinary course

ofl

ife and

business . This amoWlts to an arbitrary deprivation of Liberty.

 There should be no arb itrary deprivation ofLife or Liberty ... 

Barbour vs  Connolly

 The right to travel is part of the Liberty ofwhich a citizen cannot deprived without due

process

of

law under the Fifth Amendment. This Right was emerging as early as the Magna

Carta. 

Kent vs  Dulles 

357 US 116 1958)

The focal point of this question of police power and due process must balance upon the point of

making the public highways a safe place for the public to travel.

If

a man travels in a manner that

creates actual damage, an action would lie  civilly) for recovery

of

damages. The state could then

also proceed against the individual to deprive him of his Right to use the public highways, for

cause. This process would fulfill the due process requirements of the Fifth Amendment while at

the same time insuring that Rights guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution and the state constitutions

would be protected.

But unless or until harm or damage  a crime) is committed, there is no cause for interference in

the private affairs or actions of a Citizen.

One

of

the

most f

amo

us and perhaps the most quoted definitions

of

due process

of

law, is that

of

Daniel Webster in his Dartmouth College

Case

(4 Wheat 518), in which he declared

that

by due

process is meant:

 a law which hears befor e it condemns, which proceeds upon inquiry, and renders judgment

only after trial.

See also State vs  Strasb urg 110 P. 1020;

Dennis vs Moses 52 P. 333

Somewhat similar is the stat

ement tha

t is a rule as old as the law that:

 n o

on

e shall be personally bound (restricted) until he has had his day in court,

by which is meant, until he has been duly cited to appear and has been afforded an opportunity to

be heard. Judgment without such citation and opportunity lacks all the attributes of a judicial

determination; it is j udicial usurpation and it is

op

pressive

and

can never

 

upheld where it is

fairly administered. (12 Arn.Jur. [1st] Const.

Law

, Sect. 573, Pg . 269)

No te: This sounds like the process used to deprive one of the privilege of operating a motor

vehicle  fo r hire. It should be kept in mind, however, that we are discussing the arb itrary

deprivation of the Right to use the road that all cit izens have in common.

The futility of the state s position can   most easily observed in the 1959 Washington Attorney

General s opinion on a similar issue:

  The distinction between the Right of the Citizen to use the public highways for private, rather

than commercial purposes is recognized ... 

and ...

 Under its power to regulate private uses

of

our highways, our legislature has required that

motor vehicle operators be licensed (I.C. 49-307). Undoubtedly , the primary purpose of this

requirement is to insure, as far as possible, that all motor vehicle operators will be competent and

qualified, thereby reducing the potential hazard or risk of harm, to which other users of the

highways might otherwise   subject.   utonce having complied with this regulatory provision,

by obtaining the required license, a motorist enjoys the privilege

of

traveling free ly upon the

hi h  g ways ...

Washington A.G.O. 59-60 No . 88, Pg. 11

This alarming opinion appears to

 

saying that every person using an automobile as a matter of

Right, must give up the Right and convert the Right into a privilege. This is accomplished under

the guise of regulation. This statement is indicative

of

the insensitivity, even the ignorance, o

 

he

government to the limits placed upon governments by and through the several constitutions .

This legal theory may have been able to stand in 1959; however, as of 1966, in the United States

Supreme Court decision in Miranda, even this weak defense

of

the state s actions must fall.

  Where rights secured by the Constitution are involved, there can be no rule making or

legislation which would abrogate them.

Miranda vs Arizona 

384 US 436, 491

Thus the legislature does not have the power to abrogate the Citizen s Right to travel upon the

public roads, by passing legislation forcing the citizen to waive his Right and convert that Right

into a privilege. Furthermore, we have previously established that this privilege has been

defmed as applying only to those who are conducting business in the streets or operating

for-hire vehicles.

The legislature has attempted (by legislative fiat) to deprive the Citizen of his Right to use the

roads in the ordinary course of life and business, without affording the Citizen the safeguard of

due process of law. This has been accompli shed under supposed powers of regulation.

REGUL TIO

N

 In addition to the requirement that regulations governing the use of the highways must not be

violative

of

constitutional guarantees, the prime essentials

of

such regulation are reasonableness,

impartiality, and definiteness or certainty.  

25 Am.Jur,

(1st) Highways, Sect.

even though they are clearly beyond the limits

of

consider whether such regulations are reasonable and non-violative of constitutional guarantees.

First, let us consider the reasonableness of this statute requiring all persons to be licensed

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/right-to-travel-brief-in-support-of-notice-for-dismissal-and-supplement 32/41

the reasonableness

of

the statute we need only ask two quest ions:

Does the statute accomplish its stated goal?

The answer is No 

The attempted explanation for this regulation to insure the safety of the public by insuring, as

much as possible, that all are competent and qualified. 

However, one can keep his license without retesting, from the time he/she is first licensed until

the day he/she dies, without regard to the competency ofthe person, by merely renewing said

license before it expires.   is therefore possible to completely skirt the goal of this attempted

regulation, thus proving that this regulation does not accomplish its goal.

Furthermore, by testing and licensing, the state gives the appearance of underwriting the

competence of the licensees, and could therefore be held liable for failures, accidents, etc. caused

by licensees.

Is th e statute reasonab le?

The answer is No 

This statute cannot be determined to be reasonable since it requires to the Citizen to give up

his or her natural Right to travel unrestricted in order to accept the privilege. The purported goal

of this statute could be met by much less oppressive regulations, i.e., competency tests and

certificates of competency b

ef

ore using an automobile upon the public roads. (This is exactly the

situation in the aviation sector.)

  ut

isn tthis what we have now?

The answer is No The real purpose ofthis license is much more insidious. When one signs the

license, he/she gives up his/her Constitutional Right to travel in order to accept and exercise a

privilege. After signing the license, a quasi-contract, the Citizen has to give the state his/her

consent to be prosecuted for constructive crimes and quasi-criminal actions where there is no

harm done (no injured

party) and no damaged property.

These prosecutions take place without affording the Citizen of their Constitutional Rights and

guarantees such a the Right to a trial by jury

of

twelve persons and the Right to counsel , as well

as the normal safeguards such as proofof intent and a corpus dilecti and a grand jury indictment.

These uncon stitutional prosecutions take place because the Citizen is exercising a privilege and

has given his/her  implied consent to legislative enactments designed to control interstate

commerce, a regulatable enterprise under the police power of the state.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/right-to-travel-brief-in-support-of-notice-for-dismissal-and-supplement 33/41

We must now conclude that the Citizen is forced to give up Constitutional guarantees of  Right

in order to exercise his state privilege to travel upon the public highways in the ordinary course

of life and business. In addition, said infringement of rights is at the expense of the private

citizen in costs, fees, renewals, fines, etc., for which the State is benefitting, without full

disclosure of the alleged contract between the private citizen and the State.

SURRENDER OF RIGHTS

A Citizen cannot be forced to give up his/her Rights in the name of regulation .

 ... the only limitations found restricting the right

of

the state to condition the use

of

the public

highways as a means of vehicular transportation for compensation are  I) that the state must not

exact of those it permits to use the highways for hauling for gain that they surrender any of their

inherent U.S. Constitutional Rights as a condition precedent to obtaining permission for such use

 

Riley vs  Laeson 142 So. 619;

Stephenson vs Binford 

supra.

If one cannot be placed in a position of being forced to surrender Rights in order to exercise a

privilege, how much more must this maxim of law, then, apply when one is simply exercising

 putting into use) a Right ?

Hoke vs Henderson 15 NC 15

and ...

We find it intolerable that one Constitutional Right should have to be surrendered

 n

order to

assert another.

Simons vs United States

390 US 389

Since the state requires that one give up Rights in order to exercise the privilege of traveling, the

regulation cannot stand under the police power, due process, or regulation, but must be exposed

as a statute which is oppressive and one which has been misapplied to deprive the Citizen of

Rights guaranteed by the United States Constitution and the state constitutions.

TAXING

POW R

 Any claim that this statute is a taxing statute would be immediately open to severe

Constitutional objections. If it could be said that the state had the power to tax a Right , this

would enable the state to destroy Rights guaranteed by the constitution through the use of

oppressive taxation. The question herein is one

The views advanced herein are neither novel nor unsupported by authority. The question of

state to impede or embarrass the Constitutional operation of the U.S. Government or the Rights

which the Citizen holds under it, has been uniformly denied.

McCulloch vs Maryland 4 Wheat 316

The power to tax is the power to destroy, and if the state is given the power to destroy Rights

through taxation, the framers of the Constitution wrote that document in vain.

  It may be said that a tax ofone dollar for passing through the state cannot sensibly affect

any function

of

government or deprive a Citizen

of

any valuable Right. But

if

a state can tax ... a

passenger of one dollar, it can tax him a thousand dollars.

Crandall vs Nevada

6

Wall

35, 46

and ...

 If the Right of passing through a state by a Citizen of the United States is one guaranteed by

the Constitution, it must be sacred from state taxation.

Ibid., Pg. 47

Therefore, the Right

oft

rave must be kept sacred from all forms of state taxation and if this

argument is used by the state as a defense of the en forcement

of

this statute, then this argument

also must

fail.

  ONVERSIONOF RIGHT TO CRIME

As previously demonstrated, the Citizen has the Right to travel and to transport his property upon

the public highways in the ordinary course of life and business. However,

if

one exercises this

Right to travel  without first giving up the Right and converting that Right into a privilege) the

Citizen is by statute, guilty of a crime. This amounts to converting the exercise of a

  onstitutional Right into a crime.

Recall the Miller vs s and Snerer vs Cullen quotes from Pgs. 3+4, and:

 The state cannot diminish Rights of the people.

and ...

Where rights secured by the Constitution are involved, there can be no rule making or

legislation which would abrogate them.

Miranda supra.

Indeed, the very purpose for creating the state under the limitations ofthe constitution was to

protect the rights

of

the people from intrusion, particularly by the forces

of

government.

So we can see that any attempt by the legislature to make the act

of

using the public highways as

a matter

of

Right into a crime, is void upon its face.

Any person who claims his Right to travel upon the highways , and so exercises that Right, cannot

be tried for a crime ofdoing so. And yet, this Freeman stands before this court today to answer

charges for the crime

of

exercising his Right to Liberty. As we have already shown, the term

 drive can only apply to those who are employed in the business oftransportation for hire.

 

has

been shown that freedom includes the Citizen s Right to use the public highways in the ordinary

course oflife and business without license or regulation by the police powers of the state.

CONCLUSION

It is the duty

of

the court to recognize the substance

of

things and not the mere form.

The courts are not bound by mere form, nor are they to be misled by mere pretenses . They are

at liberty -- indeed they are under a solemn duty -- to look at the substance

of

things , whenever

they enter upon the inquiry whether the legislature has transcended the limits of its authority. If,

therefore, a statute purported to have been enacted to protect ... the public safety, has no real or

substantial relation to those objects or is a palpable invasion

of

Rights secured by the

fundamental law, it is the duty of the courts to so adjudge, and thereby give effect to the

Constitution.

 It is the duty

of

the courts to be watchful for the Constitutional rights of the citizen and

against any stealthy encroachments thereon.

 ordinary course

of

life and business.  

Hadfield 

supra.)

Further, the court must recognize that the Right to travel is part

of

the Liberty

of

which a Citizen

cannot be deprived without specific cause and without the due process

of

law guaranteed in the

Fifth Amendment.  Kent supra.)

The history

of

this invasion of the Citizen s Right to use the public highways shows clearly that

the legislature simply found a heretofore untapped source

of

revenue, got greedy, and attempted

to enforce a statute in an unconstitutional manner upon those free and natural individuals who

have a Right to travel upon the highways. This was not attempted in an outright action, but in a

slow, meticulous, calculated encroachment upon the Citizen s Right to travel.

This position must be accepted unless the prosecutor can show his authority for the position that

the use

of

the road in the ordinary course

of

life and business is a privilege.

To rule in any other manner, without clear authority for an adverse ruling, will infringe upon

fundamental and basic concepts

of

Constitutional law. This position, that a Right cannot be

regulated under any guise, must be accepted without concern for the monetary loss

of

the state.

 Disobedience or evasion

of

a Constitutional Mandate cannot be tolerated, even though such

disobedience may, at least temporarily, promote in some respects the best interests

of

the public.

Slate vs. Examination  112 ALR 660

and ...

  Economic necessity cannot justify a disregard

of

Constitutional guarantee.

Riley vs. Carter  79 ALR 1018;

16 Am.Jur. (2nd), Const. Law, Sect . 81

and ...

  Constitutional Rights cannot be denied simply because

of

hostility to their assertions and

exercise; vindication

of conceded Constitutional Rights cannot be made dependent upon any

theory that it is less expensive to deny them than to afford them.

Watson vs.

Memphis  375 US 526

Therefore, the Court s decision in the instant case must be made without the issue

of

cost to the

state being taken into consideration, as that issue is irrelevant. The state cannot lose money that  

never had a right to demand from the Sovereign People.

Finally, we come to the issue of public policy.

 

could be argued that the licensing scheme of all

persons is a matter of public policy. However,

if

this argument is used, it too must fail, as:

 No public policy of a state can be allowed to override the positive guarantees of the U.S.

Constitution.

16 Am.Jur. (2nd), Const. Law, Sect. 70

So even public policy cannot abrogate this Citizen s Right to travel and to use the public

highways in the ordinary course oflife and business. Therefore, it must be concluded that:

We have repeatedly held that the legislature may regulate the use ofthe highways for carrying

on business for private gain and that such regulation is a valid exercise of the police power.

Northern Pacific R R Co supra.

and ...

 The act in question is a valid regulation , and as such is binding upon all who use the highway

for the purpose of private gain.

Ibid.

Since no notice is given to people applying for driver s (or other) licenses that they have a perfect

right to use the roads without any permission, and that they surrender valuable rights by taking on

the regulation system of licensure, the state has committed a massive construction fraud. This

occurs when any person is told that they must have a license in order to use the public roads and

highways.

The

license. being a legal contract underwhich

the

state is empowered with policing

powers. is only valid when the licensee takes on the burdens of the contract

and

bargains

away his or her rights knowingly. intentionally. and voluntarily.

Few know that the driver s license is a contract without which the police are powerless to

regulate the people s actions or activities.

Few  if any) licensees intentionally surrender valuable rights. They are told that they must have

the license. As we have seen, this is not the case.

No one in their right mind voluntarily surrenders complete liberty and accepts in its place a set of

regulations.

 The people never give up their liberties but under some delusion . Edmund Burke , (1784

Any other construction of this statute would render it unconstitutional as applied to this Citizen.

I am Traveling in my Private Automobile by Constitutional Guaranteed Right, theseCases and Statements recognized by the Supreme Court verify my right to Travel in myPrivate Automobile.

 Americans’ “freedom to travel throughout the United States has long been recognized asa basic right under the Constitution,” according to multiple cases including Williams v.

Fears, 179 U.S. 270, 274 (1900); Twining v. New Jersey, 211 U.S. 78, 97 (1908), as listedin the case of United States v. Guest, 383 U.S. 745, 758 (1966), a case involvingcriminally prosecuting people for obstructing the right (obstruction is a federal crimepursuant to federal criminal law 18 USC 241).

“The right to travel is a part of the “liberty” of which the citizen cannot be deprivedwithout due process of law under the Fifth Amendment.” Kent v. Dulles, 357 U.S. 116,125 (1958). Reaffirmed in Zemel v. Rusk, 381 U.S. 1 (1965).

“Undoubtedly the right of locomotion, the right to remove from one place to anotheraccording to inclination, is an attribute of personal liberty, and the right, ordinarily, of 

free transit from or through the territory of any State is a right secured by the l4th Amendment and by other provisions of the Constitution.” Schactman v. Dulles, 255 F.2d938, 944 (1955).

“Even the legislature has no power to deny to a citizen the right to travel upon thehighway and transport his property in the ordinary course of his business or pleasure,though this right may be regulated in accordance with the public interest andconvenience.” Chicago Motor Coach Co. v. City of Chicago, 337 Ill. 200, 206 (1929), 169NE 22 (“Regulated” here means stop lights, signs, etc., NOT a privilege that requirespermission).

“The right of a citizen to travel upon the public highways and to transport his propertythereon in the ordinary course of life and business is a common right which he has underhis right to enjoy life and liberty, to acquire and possess property, and to pursuehappiness and safety. It includes the right in so doing to use the ordinary and usualconveyances of the day.” Thompson v. Smith, 155 Va. 367 (1930).

“The right to make use of an automobile as a vehicle of travel along the highways of thestate, is no longer an open question. The owners thereof have the same rights in theroads and streets as the drivers of horses or those riding a bicycle or traveling by someother vehicle.” House v. Cramer, 134 Iowa 374 (1907), 112 N.W. 3.

Public roads belong to the people, since we pay for them. Every time we purchasegasoline we are charged a tax on the gasoline which pays for all public roads, thereforeexercising one’s liberty upon them is a natural right. The right to travel, or to locomotion,is upheld in the constitution, and actually predates the constitution.

“No one is bound to obey an unconstitutional law, and no courts are bound to enforce it.”Bonnett v. Vallier, 136 Wis. 193 (1908), 116 N.W. 885; Norton v. Shelby County, 118 U.S.425 (1886); 16A Am. Jur. 2d Constitutional Law Sec. 195.

The State cannot diminish the rights of the people. Hurtado v. California, 110 U.S. 516(1884).

“This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuancethereof, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall bebound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary

notwithstanding.” “The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and theMembers of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, tosupport this Constitution...” Article VI of the U.S. Constitution.

“The claim and exercise of a constitutional right cannot thus be converted into a crime.”Miller v. United States, 230 F.2d 486, 490 (1956).

With no injured party, a complaint is invalid on its face. Gibson v. Boyle, 139 Ariz. 512(1983).

Courts have ruled that without Corpus delicti there can be no crime and, “In everyprosecution for crime, it is necessary to establish the corpus delicti, i.e., the body orelements of the crime.” People v. Lopez, 254 Cal.App.2d 185, 188 (1967). “In everycriminal trial, the prosecution must prove the corpus delicti, or the body of the crimeitself  — i.e., the fact of injury, loss or harm, and the existence of a criminal agency as itscause.” People v. Sapp, 2 Cal. Rptr. 3d 554, 595 (2003) [quoting People v. Alvarez, 46P.3d 372 (2002)].

“As a general principle, standing to invoke the judicial process requires an actual justiciable controversy as to which the complainant has a real interest in the ultimate

adjudication because he or she has either suffered or is about to suffer an injury.” Peoplev. Superior Court, 126 Cal.Rptr.2d 793, 801 (2002).

There is no question that there is NO injured party involved here, and a citation/ticketissued by a police officer, or jail/incarceration for any cause including no valid driver’slicense, registration or insurance, and save for criminal activities involving an injuredparty, is a penalty or sanction, and is indeed, “converting a Right into a crime.”1

“The use of highways for purposes of travel and transportation is not a mere privilege,but a common and fundamental right, of which the public and individuals cannotrightfully be deprived.” Chicago Motor Coach Co. v. City of Chicago, 337 Ill. 200 (1929),

169 NE 22, 66 ALR 834. Ligare v. City of Chicago, 139 Ill. 46 (1891), 28 NE 934. Boonev. Clark, 214 S.W. 607 (1919); 25 American Jurisprudence, Highways, Sec. 163.
