The Texas rancher was living his worst nightmare. He was embroiled in an income tax case with the federal government that was intent on foreclosing on his ranch, taking everything and leaving nothing due to unpaid liens.
The rancher’s effort to fight back turned the incident into a landmark case. On September 14, 2015, he filed a petition in United States District Court, Eastern District of Texas, Lufkin Division Case No. 9:14-CV-138 that challenged the Constitutional authority of the feds to usurp the authority of the courts in Tyler County, Texas.
The United States had 14 days to respond, but remained silent, apparently the first and only time that the government failed to respond to a jurisdiction challenge.
The rancher was not dissuaded. On September 30, 2015, he filed a Demand for Dismissal. Again, there was no response. How can the worst nightmare become even worse? The rancher will likely answer that when the Federal Court in conjunction with the IRS is trying to illegally seize your property while ignoring your legal rights, this is about as bad as your nightmare can be.
All within the rights of the rancher, his petition claimed that the Federal Court lacked the territorial and personal jurisdiction in Tyler Country, Texas, and demanded a dismissal of the case. The text of the petition indicated that the law was on his side.

James Schaller yeah, tinfoil hats pulled over their eyes. Personally, I wonder if this site (no bylines, hidden ownership) might even be a front to make real conservatives look bad by feeding$#%&!@*bait to those prone to believe conspritard c**p.
I accept your points and agree, but this looks more like the currant EPA land grab based on washes or you building stock tanks and calling them wet lands or navigational waters. Or F&W because of a toad that has’t been seen in 50-100 years.
Typical government.
Left field lawsuit.
Here’s the condition of the country and the supreme court, they rule to have the ten commandments displayed on goverrment buildings and schools is not constitutional, yet it you take a good look at the facade of the supreme court building, it’s Moses holding the ten commandments, how does that work?
Bastards
Lamar Flatt, can you please explain this to me in, well, Southern American?
Our Government who uses the power of our government against “We the People” to fulfill the whims of our elected officials!
This is NOT Treason! READ the Constitution! Treason is defined in the Constitution, it’s the ONLY crime defined in the Constitution. Throwing spurious charges around destroys your credibility.
It becomes the responsibility of The People, to enforce the U.S. Constitution ON the Courts (see protectors of the United States of America, Inc.). It was, after all, “The Courts” that issued the “Rule of Law” set forth by the King. Because the sheep have assumed a lackadaisical attitude where “Federal” power is concerned, the power hungry tyrant, has developed a ravenous appetite for revenge and intimidation. The sad part it, The Sheep (former U.S. Citizens) have blindly accepted the gubment’s authority, without question, allowing “Rule of Law” to continue! The Second Amendment, was written, to insure The Citizen, the right to defend their Freedom! “Taxes” are a “Voluntary Privilege”, that has around 14,000 pages of “Laws”. LOL See? Sheep CAN be led to the ledge and will jump, JUST because the sheep in front of them did! So, when you think “Law Enforcement”, think of the Rule of Law, which IS in the U.S. Constitution and clearly REJECTED, stating “Law of the Land, Passed by a Congress, ….”
