Many if not most judges palaver with sovcits because they consider they have to make a record that will stand up on appeal. It is gradually becoming clear that the appeals courts, uniformly, have declared the sovcit contentions to be frivolous and without merit. This judge has taken note of that and understands that "frivolous and without merit" means she can summarily dismiss the contentions without hearing them in extenso. All other judges in all jurisdictions should do the same. both for the sake of judicial economy, to discourage sovcits, and to cut into the revenues of the "gurus" who peddle the garbage.

[@rbarnes4076]

Sounds about right. I'm not a lawyer, but I did figure that the judges in these types of cases weren't just wasting time.. but rather treating the arguments as real.

According to someone who is (apparently) a lawyer posting above, the most likely reason why so many judges are listening to the stupid arguments is to make sure their decisions survive the appeal process. But if appellate courts make it clear that the sovcit arguments are frivolous/without merit lower level court judges can simply deny the argument immediately and it will speed things up. I think all the sovcit nonsense got real traction in the early 2010s as more folks got access to the sovcit info and started trying to use it. Now appellate courts are finally starting to catch up. Like all things judicial.. it seems like these types of things take a decade or more before the appellate court understands enough to make these types of administrative decisions.

At least he didn't claim not to be a citizen of the USA, like so many do. Judges should be ready for that one, and if it occurs they should advise the defendants that, if they persevere with that crap, the Feds would be called to take them away to a detention center to await deportation, along with other aliens who also have no visa. However, as they would be unable to name a country where they are a citizen, they would be declared stateless, and be unable to be released. I suspect that at this point much of the SovCit crap would cease, and they would be grateful to admit to their US citizenship, with all the rights, privileges and responsibilities that apply, including dealing with the court case at hand.

[@cattey3306]

well, was it 'money' or was it 'MONEY?'

Him acting shocked at 0:40 as he realises some nonsense he read on Reddit doesn’t have any legal standing 😂

This judge’s running her courtroom should be the gold standard!

[@TomWhi]

America has a serious mental health problem, it used to be a country that was respected. Communities, friends and family that don’t try to correct these flaws will leave the county in a real mess.

[@BrinnerDang]

"If you were dead, the case would be dismissed." And, here I thought the judge wasn't supposed to give legal advice...

[@cattey3306]

that's it. CORNER!

[@kathyshelton9708]

YAAASSSS!!!! This judge shuts down the same old bs!!!! Love her!!!!

[@kjdnld]

Great judge. Everything she said was to the point and she remained matter of fact without being disrespectful.

[@jeffjob6995]

Google his name... he has a history of being a thief and spending time in prison. What I loved the most about this judge is she tried to scare him with showing she COULD run his sentences consecutively. Translation... don't piss her off or you will spend more time in jail than you might normally have to.

My favorite description that someone once wrote, "Why aren't the magic words working??"

[@scottburns2600]

That was text book handling of these idiots! No arguing, no haggling, no humoring. Just right to the point!

[@richlaue]

If the judge doesn't have jurisdiction, why did he even appear? There has to be a victim. OK, who did you steal the 68,000 worth of tools from.

[@gummo3873]

I truly wish "these people" understood that the term "Sovereign Citizen " in itself is an Oxymoron. One CANNOT be a "Sovereign" while at the exact same time claim to be a Citizen. It's either one or the other folks. 🤦🏻🥴🤡

[@ARetiredPirate]

They are good at that, picking the things they like or benefit from..

[@willer3399]

It is an oxymoron with no context applied to it. It is an exact description of what they are, which is a citizen with the mistaken belief that they are a sovereign being. It is also the name the founders of the SovCit movement picked for themselves.

[@gummo3873]

@@willer3399 lol my point clearly escapes the both of you. It's very easy to cast judgement upon people and call them names. Pretty much everyone does it these days. KZbin comments sections are chalked full of over-opinionated, under-educated folks who believe their own "point of view" is the "correct" one even though they've never lifted a finger to explore the opposite perspective or point of view from a truly neutral, unbiased stance. Both sides of an "issue" hurl the same names and insults at/about each other just like children on an elementary school playground and nothing of any meaning or merit gets accomplished while doing so. It's cute and kind of hilarious when children do it, when adults do it, eh, not so much. That's just sad, hypocritical and is pretty much the main reason why our society is beginning to resemble the comedy central movie Idiocracy these days. The days of true critical thinking have gone the way of the dinosaurs. In reality, neither side of "this argument" (or more like lack thereof) has a clue WTF any of you are talking about, it's basically the equivalent of proverbial gangland Warfare. People pick a "side" based upon their own conformation biases and life experiences, and then hurl insults back and forth at each other like caged monkeys in a circus flinging their own excrement at each other out of pure boredom simply for something to do. How freaking sad is that. Personally I have more faith in the common man/woman and humanity than that. Maybe instead of allowing my words to trigger you and taking them personally, actually try to consider the point about the "bigger picture" im trying to make here. I believe in you. Just try it. You might be amazed at the doors it can open for you. ⚖️

[@davidwilliams5407]

The term "sovereign citizen," as used today, is not an oxymoron; it's an idiom. An idiom is a group of words established by usage as having a meaning not deducible from those of the individual words. The term was originally coined by SovCits to describe themselves. They only stopped using it about a decade ago when it developed unsavory connotations. It may well have been an oxymoron at the time SovCits were using it. I have no opinion on that. However, the term, as used today by mainstream society, is intended to be taken as a whole, not with the words separated and analyzed individually. That is the essence of an idiom. It is a label that we've applied to people with the SovCit belief system, and it is almost universally accepted for that purpose. Incidentally, I have studied SovCit claims extensively. I've thoroughly investigated every single SovCit claim I've been able to find over the years. I'm an attorney with 35 years of litigation experience, a retired prosecutor, and a pro-tem judge who teaches continuing legal education classes on SovCits to judges and prosecutors. While there is good reason to have faith in the common man/woman (it's why we use juries), there is absolutely no validity whatsoever to the SovCit world view.

[@ARetiredPirate]

@@gummo3873 I think the biggest problem for society nowadays is that ppl think they must pick a side in everything that they come across..

[@joeyknuckles2721]

Why don't all judges handle this foolishness this way? "None of that is legal. None of that is valid. You're in my courtroom, so you're under my jurisdiction." PERFECT!!! All he could say at the end was "I need more time to think".😂😂😂😂

[@PassiveAgressive319]

The fact that he helped himself to $70k of his company’s money and is now standing in court for theft AND spouting Sovcit nonsense as an act of desperation means that he is one life’s true losers.

[@TheSadDane]

I don't care for sovereign citizen nonsense, but let's remember he's innocent until proven guilty.

[@AlpacaHacker]

I like this judge, shuts him down without belittling him, advises him he should take the lawyer, and gives him time to get his act together. Well done!

[@goonerbear8659]

"Embezzlement is a victimless crime. Only a company was injured, and a company can't show up to court to testify, so you should let me go." The gall...

[@kingintyellow]

That's like saying you can get away with murder, because the victim cannot be present to accuse you of killing them.

[@HooDatDonDar]

@@kingintyellow Shh, don’t give them any ideas.

[@ericw3229]

They cite a bunch of pseudo legal mumbo jumbo then say they don' t understand anything.

These idiots all think that they can simply reject the court's jurisdiction, etc and the courts are just going to agree and turn them loose. It's nonsense.

[@timdunn6092]

"There has to be a victim to be tried", dude $69k from your old employer is a lot of money and tools, yeah there is a victim. Why is he walking around free, he must have paid a really substantial bond, not. I can see him at the bond agent him: I need a $5k 10% bond them: okay that will be $500 him: okay if I pay by check them: what are you accused of him: embezzlement them: NOPE CASH ONLY. 😂😂😂😂

[@ChrisLincoln]

I love watching a sov-cit collide with reality. They seem to think the legal system is like a wizard battle and they just need to shout the right phrases to win.

[@edvincent]

So he steals from his employer and he states "there is no victim."? Oh I hope he represents himself, please 🙏

[@crgeissler]

That judge was awesome!

[@0101-s7v]

I'm really surprised at how many sovereign citiots there are out there.

[@colette2034]

I truly don't understand it. People are arrested, jailed, ticketed, and tried every single day around the US. And they think there's this magical defense that automatically ends a case? Does the news NOT cover it because they've gotta keep SOVCIT a supersecret?? Are there liars online saying they've been successful in court? UGH!😂😅

[@sbornot2b]

But he said the name in all caps thing so you have to let him go !!! Prisons all over the world are emptying out as we speak because "ALL CAPS," "the government is a corporation," and "conflict of interest."

[@quiltguy1906]

( with apologies to "Rumpole of The Bailey") O Wise Judge! O Learned Judge!! A Daniel come to judgment!!! This judge ought to be schooling her fellow judges how to handle SovCits because she did a magnificent job here. Economy of words, forceful without being strident and ready to counter every bit of bullshit the defendant attempted to throw her way in a vain attempt to bamboozle her. How refreshing to see a judge so competent and resolute in her job that she didn't even break a sweat. Hats off to her.

Imagine stealing from your company and thinking somehow you are the victim.

[@thedirector1921]

I’m torn on if I love “no, we’re not playing that game, all those arguments are invalid, let’s move on” or “oh, if you’re not the named defendant, then the defendant is getting a bench warrant for failure to appear, have a nice day” more.
