Yall get away with representing a man or woman illegally, since there allegedly is no artificial entity created at birth? Even tho the Cestui Que Vie Act of 1666 clearly defines how the birth certificate is a bond that creates a trust. How do you explain that before 1975 when you are born you were... View More

The questions you're raising involve complex legal interpretations and theories that are not widely accepted in mainstream legal practice. The Cestui Que Vie Act of 1666, an old English statute, is often misinterpreted in modern contexts. This act was primarily concerned with determining the... View More

A birth certificate does not create a legal person, entity, or corporation. It is simply a government-issued record of an individual's birth, primarily used for identity verification and legal recognition of personhood.

Call a BK attorney and ask for advice. If BK is not an option, hire a competent TN attorney to look at your assets and properly Exempt them to the extent of TN statutes.
The latter. Is that not a conflict of interest in the courts? Your paid attorney obligated to the courts? How can the client get a fair chance?

Presentment is presenting a negotiable instrument for payment, not an instrument itself. Like taking a check to a bank for payment: it is either honored or not.

You don't have a legal problem. You have a T-Mobile problem. There is nothing to report, there's no place to report, and there's no remedy for what you call corporate greed. T-Mobile does not need to unlock the phone you bought on whatever contract it was. You have the option of... View More
Claim and it has reached the deadline can they still file a late claim to continue to make payments threw my bankruptcy or what will happen
answered on Oct 30, 2023
A debtor has the option of filing a Proof of Claim for a debtor, and it sounds as if you should do that, so that plan payments flow to the secured creditor. The Chapter 13 Trustees pay on filed Proofs of Claim.
Of course, you should confer with your bankruptcy attorney first before taking... View More

I was making payments on an old account with the courts but missed several payments. Now my wages have been garnished but the amount owed has tripled due to prejudgment interest. Is that legal?
answered on May 18, 2023
You can ask the Court Clerk to explain the Judgment amount to you. But it will legally grow exponentially with time. Read whatever contract you had with Creditor, and if none, read the Judgment. BR is a possible option, and be careful with your assets. A Notice of Exempt Property might be... View More

Counties are state-created political subdivisions, and have little bearing upon federal (bankruptcy) venue and jurisdiction.

I volunteered to have it repossessed and I was told I would be left with the outstanding balance to pay when the vehicle is being repossessed

You might want an attorney to work out a compromise, so that no note deficiency is outstanding. The threat of Chapter 7 Bankruptcy might give you leverage. Also you might record and serve a Notice of Exempt Property.
The golf course is in bankruptcy and they told us the bankruptcy judge can reverse the restriction. Can a judge do that. Also the golf club owners are threatening suits if we POA do not lift the restriction. If the restrictions are lifted we fear they will build condos and who knows what else!

Very doubtful that the bankruptcy judge will get involved in changing the restriction.
