[@AlPapa]

You might want to watch more of Judge Slaven. Nothing would tickle him more than being told by the courts above he's wrong. He doesn't think he's wrong, and he's exhaustively corrected Mr Martin so many times not because he really thinks he can get through to Eric, but because others might see this foolishness and go "well, guess I'm not paying this guru money for bad legal advice." The only tool he's come to the conclusion that might actually get through to him is confinement. And he's seen Mr Martin evolve, both the good and the bad - he's finally showing up to court, but he's escalating into hurting others. That, in itself, deserves jail time. But that's also not reflected in this judgment, else it'd be far longer than just 12 days. When he inevitably loses the contempt hearing, and very likely the jury trial on the DV case, this case will also be considered - has he learned from his time in confinement? Is he still contemptuous of the court and society's norms? What might have just simply been a short probation will likely turn into months long confinement.

Having recently served on a jury, I profoundly thank the judge. We took our duty seriously and we debated long and hard.

It was a honour and we all gave our time willingly.

[@daniimarie5180]

I served on a jury a few years ago and I had a similar experience. We found the man guilty and although I felt it was a correct verdict, I left that courthouse feeling a little heavy knowing that decision put a man behind bars for many years. On the other hand, we gave his victim justice, a voice, and that feeling was much more overwhelming.

[@N-WordBoi]

Well, you are not allowed to consider that in your verdict; sympathy is not allowed to be a part of it.

[@LuteItBe]

​@@N-WordBoiJury instructions in some jurisdictions include that. Others say the decision cannot *solely* be made through sympathy or emotion. But since jury deliberations are behind closed doors, there's nothing to stop a jury or juror from basing their decision on sympathy. In fact, sympathy for one party or the other is commonly cited as a factor in decision making by juror's who agree to be part of such studies. Attorneys on both sides do whatever they can to make the jury sympathetic to their side. Who has the best narrative. It's a huge part of legal strategy. At the end of the day, jurors are still human

I don't know if that's possible? Even the educated ones are bat pop crazy?

[@Boyso5407]

32:25. This judge just explained exactly what a SovCit is and he said it perfectly. They want the freedoms and protections that come with being a citizen of the United States but they don’t want to follow any of the laws that they don’t agree with. He stated it PERFECTLY

[@djjones7226]

Thank You Squishy! It was glorious watching Mr Martin going into custody😁 I absolutely adore Judge Slavin. He definitely had the patience of a Saint with this guy! Sentencing him to jail time..along with his profound explanation as to why was *so spot on!* My hope is that while sitting behind bars Mr Martin will give some serious consideration to what Judge Slavin told him. We can only hope.

[@vivian2822]

It's about time the court stopped fooling around and put him in jail.

[@randalljones137]

Would love to be a fly on the wall when a higher court reads his appeal and laughs their head off. It will go no where. Will be denied so fast that the court may charge him with frivolous use of the courts. I hope he has to pay to appeal or at least post a bond.

[@HereticalMusings]

I am not sure how highly I’d rate his chances of being able to correctly file an appeal in the first place.

[@kerbyfab]

He does have to pay a bond to submit an appeal.

[@randalljones137]

@ some courts on traffic offenses require a bond in the amount of their fine to appeal when there is no jail time required. His offense had possible jail time so he has a right to appeal with no bond required. It want get anywhere but he can appeal. I doubt if the circuit court will even hear arguments after reading his motions.

[@jayschafer1760]

If this defendant does manage to actually file an actual appeal, the appeals court's clerks and interns etc will likely have much more hilarious material to add to their collection of "greatest WTF arguments". I wonder if the appeal would even make it to a judge before being shot down or refused to be formally heard.

[@randalljones137]

@ only bond if the offence does not require jail time. If its one or both then no bond to appeal when there

[@naenae4189]

Sovereign citizen land....carnival....everyone drinking the kool-aid.... I'm losing it here🤣😂🤣😂

[@maryhill6237]

The only person trying to make him look bad is him - and he's doing an excellent job.

[@nenimlasnad]

This judge is a true national hero for his unyielding patience with this guy.

[@toddpop1]

Love the judge's Bob Marley shout-out!

[@johnboy4014]

He's literally giving this guy a lesson in grammar everytime he denies his motions. All he's lacking is a red pen to go through the pages with and write the corrections and grade him at the end. ' Mr Martin please see me after class'

[@tseveudire]

12 days is not enough. I bet 3 of my toes that he's back in court within a month of getting out.

[@khrystalphillips2178]

He's got at least two DV cases coming up. He will definitely be back in court.

[@reedk2402]

Probably but end of the day they can’t extend a sentence for being an idiot or for wasting court time.

[@helgafrahmann4201]

Guess, he sue the prison team, why they doesnt, what he want !😂

[@antb9521]

Thank you!! Excellent content!!! Judge Slaven is a master at explaining "common sense" and society norms. If the defendant doesn't believe in money, his SSI check is just a scrap piece of paper, and why is a mentally/ physically able person accepting SSI??? Still takes zero responsibilty for any crimes commited. I'm surprised he agreed with the Judge regarding his shirt color.

[@judyhively2588]

Love Judge Slavin…he’s great and extremely knowledgeable. 👍👍🇺🇸

[@thentil]

Judge did a fantastic job explaining how society and taxes and rules work. Should be played for everyone in whatever grade they have an introductory civics lesson. I'm really glad he got this judge, who so deeply knows the history of this country.

[@free-tx8jg]

They got rid of civics and replaced it with social studies decades ago, at least 3-4 generations now

[@danielfloyd2050]

I was almost brought to tears when the judge showed his true love of the constitution

[@veggieeater]

Especially the part where he said if he dismissed the case that's part of the society decaying. We got to protect this country from crazy people like him.

[@Blasted2Oblivion]

It really is sad to see a judge take the time to explain why he is wrong and lay it all out for him to see only for it to bounce off completely and not fix his mess.

[@isaned]

Yeah, especially since Martin can't and won't listen.

[@tims4502]

He won’t listen because he’s too busy thinking of what nonsense to say next

[@THX11382]

Correcting his grammar is courtroom gold! Thanks to Martin for giving us so much entertainment for such a long time. Laughing at you, enjoy your incarceration.

[@OSGCourtWatch]

🤣🤣🤣🤣💯

[@Cheeks13]

Fantastic speech ny the judge. Absolutely fantastic

[@pamcadham500]

This took far too long to end up where we always knew it would. All the time, money, and resources . What a waste of hard-working taxpayers' money. These people are playing games only because most often, the police or the courts don't want to be bothered, so they get away with it. But it's the people who follow the rules that are being punished because we are paying for it.

[@HelynHughes]

But how great that people can challenge the government, even if they are wrong. That is a system that values freedom. Be glad you have that.

[@mmaxton]

Sure, but those challenges need to be based on the law. This guy wants to claim he’s a foreign agent, argue over his date of birth, and claim that his use of the word “pigs” wasn’t what we all know it was. Imagine if every single defendant did this. You would not want to pay the taxes for the amount of court employee wages involved. While the defendant does have the right to defend himself, he is also supposed to be held to the same standards as a licensed attorney if he chooses to do so. I loved the judge’s speech at the end, but he absolutely did NOT hold the defendant to those same standards. Because of that lapse, this ended up wasting a LOT more time than should have been allowed.

[@lisajohnson1011]

So proud to live in the city of Taylor with Judge Slaven presides!! This was as good a speech as I’ve heard!!❤

[@Jenger69]

Judge Slavin teaches constitutional law. I would love to sit in a class!

[@SemlerPDX]

You just did. 😆

[@Faitheist1305]

As a grammar pedant, I find the judge's remarks outstanding.

[@juanitaj60]

The closing speech by the judge was amazing‼ Totally worth waiting through all of the arguments.

[@jens2old2care]

Omg I love the kool aid reference of "Sovereign Citizen Land". Frickin classic.

[@lisala72170]

its a carnival hahaha

[@ComicsZombie]

Dang. His legal counsel is trying so hard to help him... and he does nothing but get in the way.

[@davidhardwicke6930]

@@ComicsZombie yep, kudo's to the child's lawyer for sticking with the program through recess, lunch...all the way to detention.

[@Abelizred]

This is going to be a classic. This is exactly how judges should deal with this. I’m glad the judge called out the behavior of dismissing cases to save the hassle. That just emboldens them. Because no matter what the dismissal or evidence say, the sovcit gets to announce that they won.

[@hawthorneantilles6755]

He’s teaching everyone that listens such an important lesson. We live in community which requires adherence to the shared rules to ensure, ideally, peaceful life 4 everyone.

[@CarlasLovingWife]

Best judge/teacher ever!!

[@Somethingnow1]

Im glad the judge explained it like he did. Laws are what separate us from animals.

[@JBBell]

“You realize most things are fictions, right?” Boy did he open up a whole thing that sovcits are not ready for

[@laurenm9956]

The final remarks by the judge explaining why all of these laws are necessary and the comments about living in a tree house surrounded by landmines sum it up so perfectly. This should be shown to every SC before their day in court.

[@buzzerco]

This is great 👍. I'm loving his explanations about the crap sovcits spus out.

[@helsleg]

I was so tired of listening to the defendant I almost exited this video but I'm glad I waited it out to the end. The judge's closing argument was brilliant. Loved it.

[@helenroban3621]

All sovereign citizens need a judge like this - brilliant

[@ThePonyaS]

I Love this Judge ♥️♥️♥️

[@geoffreycodnett6570]

He really enjoyed schooling this sovidiot!😂

[@Baking.Building.or.Bording]

In his 50s, history of domestic violence charges and felony convictions, no job and fallen down the sovereign citz rubbish..... and hes available. Stay single, ladies 🤣

[@emordnilaps]

And wait 'til you see the legal feats! He can't be beat! At least aboard his Vespa!

[@robingriggs2794]

You forgot that he's studying to be a magician witch. Stand in line ladies

[@Lady1974M]

Who else caught that sly jab by Judge Slaven with 'No Woman, No Cry' early on? I had to go back and listen to that a couple times to be sure I heard it right and it made me laugh. Bless Judge Slaven. He's a boss.

[@LET337]

Yes I laughed 😅

[@TonyPartridge30]

Training to be a master magician and witch is the most unique aspect of a sovcit I’ve ever heard.

[@Rayofsun69]

Lol

[@OldBeachMan-59]

Thanks OSG for a wonderful video. Bravo Judge for providing justice that is long overdue 🎉🎉🎉🎉
