A STATUTE IS NOT A LAW

in freeman •  7 years ago 

 But it is a "prima facie" evidence of the law, so it has a force of law, UNLESS it is rebutted by EVIDENCE that you're NOT a person whom the legislature intended to, or can regulate. (My explanation). 

For example, State Citizens and Inhabitants have no contract with a State, so the State CAN'T regulate them unless they engage in COMMERCE.

A “Statute’ is not a Law,” (Flournoy v. First Nat. Bank of Shreveport, 197 La. 1067, 3 So.2d 244, 248),A “Code’ or Statute’ is not a Law,” (Flournoy v. First Nat. Bank of Shreveport, 197 La. 1067, 3 So.2d 244, 248),A “Code’ is not a Law,” (In Re Self v Rhay Wn 2d 261), in point of fact in Law).�A concurrent or ‘joint resolution’of legislature is not “Law,” (Koenig v. Flynn, 258 N.Y. 292, 179 N. E. 705, 707; Ward v State, 176 Okl. 368, 56 P.2d 136, 137; State ex rel. Todd v. Yelle, 7 Wash.2d 443, 110 P.2d 162, 165).
