Welcome to Your Jural Assembly

“Due process” is the foundation of the court system in Common Law. Amendments 4 thru 9 of the Bill of Rights create the process. There are 3 pillars of Common Law Due Process;

1. The ‘accused is innocent until proven guilty by a Jury of 12

2. The burden of proof of guilt rests with the claimant to convince the jury of the accused’s guilt

3. The accused cannot be detained without due process, but must appear before the courts according to the principle of “habeas corpus”.

man/woman-to-man/woman contact, ie; eye-to-eye cordial conversation about the incident/claim and work it out together. A handshake opportunity! Handshakes were the way we made trusted agreements with one another in the days prior to our commercial ‘contracts’. This conversation should take place within the first moments or days from the incident to avoid one’s first notice of claim via email.

You are NOT a corporation, you are a ‘living people’. Living people do business with one another. Living people need to resolve, make remedy, of our own problems with one another and not rely on any courts! In other words, find the remedy with each other, “eye-to-eye”, instead of employing a BAR attorney to sue for damages in a corporate court.

We operate on FACTS and only the Facts!

Mediation takes place in a private environment outside the Living Court. Its purpose is to continue the phase of Self Governance allowing men and women to settle their own disputes. Mediation can have several advantages other than going to “public court”. They are: ● You can still have control over the outcome ● Its private, NOT public ● It can be a road to a faster remedy than the public Living Court process ● Having a third party to help mediate the situation can preserve relationships, offer emotional support and customized remedies(**More information on mediation can be found in the Virginia Common Law Court Process Handbook.)

In the event that the two parties are unable to reach a remedy the claimant has the right to initiate public court with a jury of their 12 peers to settle the dispute. A Notice of Rightful Claim is issued. This court process is public, not private wherein the claimant has the responsibility to convince the jury of the accused damages. The process is ‘adversarial’ in nature with the accused presenting their case to the jury to defend his/her position to reach a rightful remedy.

The Criminal Court process is used in the event of major harm (injury) or trespass (intentional wrongdoing). This process can be initiated by the Claimant, by a Grand Jury, the County Sheriff or the Coroner. However, the accused will be served a Warrant of Arrest, Detention or Appearance. While the process is similar to Civil Court, the end result may look different with the possibility of acquittal, incarceration or capital punishment of the accused in addition to the requested remedy .

The Jury operates as a "Group of Peers"  they evaluate the case based on: 

a. Evidence and Facts (who/what/when/where/how/why) 

b. They remain objective, (not subjective) they do not use emotions to guide their decision. 

c. Establish any undue Harm? 

d. The decision of the Jury must be unanimous

A witness brings their evidence of Criminal Activity to the court via a Criminal Witness Report, to request a Grand Jury.  The case may be forwarded to the Grand Jury Committee for an opinion to convene or not and recommend Civil or Criminal Court .

If the Grand Jury is required, then the Court Clerk and/or the Grand Jury Committee determines a date to convene.   Twenty-seven (27) Jurors are selected from the Jury pool resulting in assembling 24 jurors with 3 alternates.  

Once seated the Grand Jury will Motion for Discovery, study the evidence to determine whether the evidence fits the crime and it is strong enough to indict the suspect. Or further investigate to prove or disprove the case and indict or acquit the suspect..

Called by the Coroner to investigate suspected criminal activity related to the death of an individual.

An inquest may be called by the Coroner. A Coroner’s jury consisting of six State Nationals selected by the Court Clerk and seated by the Coroner will consider the facts and evidence involved. The process for seating the jurors shall be at the discretion of the Coroner who may interview proposed members of a Coroner’s Inquest Jury to ensure that they may serve with no conflict of interest.

If, by a majority vote of the jury at the conclusion of the inquest, sufficient evidence of wrongful death has been demonstrated, a pronouncement thereof shall go before the County Grand Jury for further action.

The Court recorder is an integral part of our common Law Courts.  The Recorder Documents (records) the Arbitration and  Court proceedings.

Using all available technology to record all aspects of the Lawful processes with the the Living court.

This position is ongoing and fluid.  All Recorded Virginians are expected to sit as a juror for your peers.  The Juror is the backbone of lawful Common Law Governance.
