Sir (judge), I'm not the defendant JARO SMITH. I'm Jaro of the family Smith. I signed the citation and so promised to come to this court. But I did not promise to be an accommodating party for the defendant JARO SMITH.
(So if the prosecution would like to establish standing and so give this court jurisdiction over this matter, they’ll need to present some evidence that I, a man, am liable for violations done by the statutory person JARO SMITH.)
Plus, I couldn't possibly pay any fine, since I have no money. All I have are Federal Reserve promissory bank notes. And I'm waiting for some Federal Reserve bank or the US Treasury to redeem those for me in LAWFUL MONEY, as they are required to, under 12USC411. I'll have money to pay any fine after they redeem it, not before.
Sir, by asking me to PAY any fine before I redeem those notes in lawful money, you are asking me to do the impossible, since promissory banknotes don't pay off debts, they only discharge them. And isn't it a maxim of law, that one cannot be required to do the impossible?
And I do use those promissory bank notes to exchange them for groceries and other necessities, but I do so ONLY under duress and under protest, because those who are required under the law to redeem those notes in lawful money, are refusing to do so. I do NOT voluntarily use those FRNs to buy anything. I'm forced to do so under necessity, since there is no real money in circulation so I cannot buy anything with real gold money.
It is my intent, to ALWAYS redeem FRNs in lawful money before making any purchases.
Sir, doesn't this court represent United States or one of its political or corporate subdivisions? Yes? Would that be the same United States which is refusing to redeem my FRNs in lawful money? Yes? Well then sir, I'll pay any fine as soon as you or the United States redeems my FRNs in lawful money.
