RILEY, and makes this motion, prima facie, In no way can this motion be construed to
‘grant jurisdiction over the defendant, because the defendant’s counsel still contends no

FIRST DISCUSSION
1, __ Fact, the UNITED*STATES DISCIRICT COURT FOR NEW
HAMPSHIRE flies the United States flag with YELLOW FRINGE in the courtroom.
2. Fact, this flag was defined by Executive Order No. 10834, August 21,
1959, 24 F.R. 6865, (in accordance to 4 USC § 10) which states, The President of the
United States designates this deviation from the regular flag, in his capacity as
‘Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, making this a military flag.
3. Fact, placing of fringe on national flag, dimensions of flag, and
arrangement of stars in union are matters of detail not controlled by statute, but are within
discretion of President as Commander-In-Chief of Army and Navy. (1925) 34 Op Atty
Gen 483, therefore, the flag is changed in a military aspect by a military commander
making ita military flag and not the flag of the American Civilian People.
4. Fact, the official flag of the United States is defined in 4 USC § 1 as
The flag of the United States shall be thirteen horizontal stripes, alternate red and white,
and the union of the flag shall be forty-cight stars, white in a blue field, and no YELLOW
FRINGE is mentioned?
5. Fact, the flag defined in 4 USC § 1 is flown above the Congress, over the
White House, all around the Washington Monument, and flown at all State Capitals.
6. Fact, a sovereign country cannot have two official national flags.7. Fact, the flag, which is a symbol of power and authority, and puts people
“on notice” of the rules and jurisdiction of the land or vessel they are standing on.
8. Fact, the United States did not have this military flag (denoted by its
yellow fringe) in their courtrooms until 1960, 169 years after the ratification of the
United States Constitution.
9. Fact, Pursuant to the "Law of the Flag”, a flag does result in jurisdictional
implications when flown. “Under international law, the “law of the flag”, a ship owner
who sends his vessel into a forcign port gives notice by his flag to all who enter into
contracts with the ship’s captain, that he intends the law of the flag to regulate those
contracts with the ship's captain and that he either submit to its operation or not contract
with him or his agent at all.” Also the ships have the right to draw an imaginary
jurisdictional line around them and the flag denotes the type of admiralty/maratime
jurisdiction that particular ship is under. Ruhstra _v, People, 185 Ill. 141, 49 L.R.A. 181,
76 Am. St. Rep. 30, 57 N. E. 41
10. Fact, Congress has not declared a declaration of war, so the United States
is not at war in the Constitutional sense at this time.
11. Question of law, what is the difference in purpose between the “regular
flag” and the flag with the yellow fringe, and is the defendant’s finding of fact correct
that the purpose of the yellow fringe is to denote military significance and to assert a
jurisdictional meaning?
12. Question of law, what law makes it lawful to fly a military flag (yellow
ffinge) and not the United States official flag (“regular flag”) in a civilian courtroom
during common law proceedings and during a time of peace? And if'it is legal, does it
have jurisdictional implications? And why isn’t the Court flying the official flag of the
United States? And which flag is the official flag of the United States?
SECOND DISCUSSION
13. Fact, the United States Constitution Article 1, Section 8, Clause 17
requires “consent” from any particular state to obtain any type of criminal jurisdiction
within that particular state and that jurisdiction is only over “places” designated for
specific purposes. .
14, Fact, New Hampshire Law RSA 123:1 requires a mandatory filing of an
affidavit from an officer of the United States with the N.IL Secretary of State before any
criminal jurisdiction (exclusive or concurrent) is ceded over to the United States by
consent to those particular places.
15. Fact, the N.H. Secretary of State and his Deputy have both provided
affidavits to the fact that the United States has never filed the proper paper work requiredby U.S. Con 1-8-17 and N.H. law RSA 123:1, therefore no jurisdictional cession has
occurred.
16. Fact, United States Senator Sununu has stated in a letter dated June 13,
2007 that the required RSA 123:1 paper is not on file with the New Hampshire Secretary
of State, thus more evidence the United States is in non-compliance with U.S. Con 1-8-17
and N.H, law RSA 123:1.
17. Fact, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled “There can be no such thing as
judioial authority, unless it is conferred by a government or sovereignty. “ Ableman v
Booth (1859) 62 US 506, 21 How 506, 16 L Ed 169.
18. Fact, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled “according to U.S. Con.1-8-17, the
Federal Government can exercise exclusive jurisdiction over land in a state only where
and is acquired for one of the purposes mmentioned and the state has ceded to the federal
government exclusive jurisdiction over land so acquired; absent such cession, position of
federal government is that of ordinary land proprietor.” Orme v. Atlas Gas & Oil Co.
(1944) 217 Minn 27, 13 NW2d 757.
19. Fact, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled Courthouses fall under “other
needful buildings” as stated in James v. Dravo Contraoting Co. (1941) 302 US 141,142
also State v De Berry (1945) 224 NC 834, 32 SE2d 617, so it must comply with U.S.
Con.1-8-17 and RSA 123:1.*
20. Fact, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled, “Transfer of exclusive jurisdiction
by state to United States rests upon grant by state, which may be accepted or declined,
and while acceptance may be presumed in absence of evidence of contrary intent, it
cannot be compelled contrary to government's conception of its own interests.” Silas
Mason Co. v Tax Com, of Washington (1937) 302 US 186, 82 L Ed 187, 58 $ Ct 233.
21. Fact, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled, Existence of exclusive or
concurrent federal jurisdiction over military installation for purposes of prosecuting
servicemen pursuant to title 18 crimes requires consent of state where institution is
located.” United States v Williams (1984, CMA) 17 MJ 207
22, Fact, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled “State had jurisdiction to try
defendant for murder, which took place on loading dock of United States post office
building, whore record did not disolose manner in which United States acquired property
or whether it had exclusive jurisdiction over crimes committed on post office property.”
People v Greer (1964) 30 Il 2d 415, 197 NE2d 22.
23. Fact, the Federal Government cannot use the “supremacy” clause of the
constitution to make jurisdictional claims without consent, because the U.S, Supreme
‘Court has ruled, “Consent of states to purchase of lands within them, for special purposes
named, is essential under the Constitution to transfer to gencral government, with title, of
political jurisdiction and domain; when title is acquired by federal government bypurchase by consent of legislatures of states, federal jurisdiction is exclusive of all state
authority; reservation, which has accompanied consent of states, that civil and criminal
process of state courts may be served in places purchased by federal government, is not
considered as interfering in any respect with supremacy of United States over them, but is
admitted to prevent them from becoming asylum for fugitives from justice: cession of
jurisdiction by state to United States is necessarily temporary, to be exercised only so
Tong as places continue to be used for public purposes for which property was acquired. or
reserved from sale, and when they cease to be thus used, jurisdiction reverts to state.” Ft.
Leavenworth R. Co. v Lowe (1885) 114 US 525, 29 L Ed 264, 5S Ct 995.
24. Fact, United States Judges swear an oath to the United States Constitution
and are bound to uphold the laws of that Constitution.
25. Question of law, with no jurisdiction ceded to the United Sates from the
State of New Hampshire, as evidenced by the affidavits of the New Hampshire Secretary
of State, his Deputy, and a letter from the United States Senator from New Hampshire
dated Juno 13, 2007; and as required by the United States Constitution Article 1, Section
8, Clause 17 and New Hampshire Law RSA 123:1, and the alleged offense being within
the N.H. State limits, how is the United States exercising jurisdiction in the above-
entitled case without consent and claiming the Federal Courthouse in Concord N.H. to be
2 lawful venue for this penal action?
26. The attached exhibits are “relevant evidence” that is exculpatory in nature
and would make the jury more probable to acquit the defendant therefore they are
admissible evidence,
