U.S. District Court: "No Constitution In My Court!"

There seems to be a pattern among court systems in the United States. Back in October 2005, long time tax protestor Irwin Schiff was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge Kent Dawson to 12 years in prison for tax evasion and fraud. When Schiff attempted to use the 16th Amendment as his basis for arguing against the Federal income tax, he was given an additional 11 months for contempt. Irwin Schiff passed in October 2015 from cancer at 87 while still in custody.

Today, Cliven Bundy has a case in which the U.S. Bureau of Land Management was awarded a $1.2 million judgment against Bundy and attempted to seize his cattle to recover on their judgment. A standoff ensued in Nevada in which 19 arrests resulted and Bundy's attorneys have attempted to use the First and Second Amendments of the U.S. Constitution as the basis for their actions. Judge Gloria Navarro has ordered the jury not to consider the Constitution as a part of their instruction and they cannot even bring a copy into Hon. Navarro's courtroom. As a result, Bundy's motions have been denied and his case has a received a devastating blow. Of course, Bundy will likely file an appeal.

Historically, in Padelford, et al., v. The Alderman of the City of Savannah, et al. (14 Ga. 438), the court ruled, "The Constitution is a compact... [and] no private citizen may have a right of action for breach of contract against the United States because they are not a party to it." Therefore, if a private citizen brings the U.S. Constitution to substantiate their arguments in court, they are trespassing on the property of another. For instance, no citizen in their right mind would bring the mortgage note of their neighbor to argue their own case with their mortgage lender.

Citizens are only afforded the Bill of Rights, not through the Constitution itself, but by the Incorporation Doctrine in which states are granted them in a limited capacity. Citizens must therefore petition their respective states to take up their cause against the United States. If a "right" can be granted at will, it can also be rescinded by the grantor at will.
