What is "Common Law"

Whenever Judicial Officials want to commit an act of treason they will usually do so under the cover of "common law".

They will write "common law" this or that, and use this as a means to circumvent the TRUE Law that is "common" to the people of this land known as Texas, and the larger Land known as the United States of America.

Therefore YOU must know what is meant by the phrase "common law"

"Common Law" is a phrase that is self explanatory. It Law that is Common among the people of a Nation, or a geographical area that a people are identified with, such as that piece of geography known as Texas, or that piece of geography known as the United States of America whose people are commonly referred to as 'Americans', as citizens of that Land, as a Nation of People with that Land as a common to their identity as 'Americans'.

Why 'common law' is often confused with 'Judicial Opinions'

The origin of the phrase is found in England during a time before the Parliament had been established (equivalent of our Congress and State Legislature) and after the establishment of Parliament, before statutory law of Parliament had been fully developed. The King of England appointed, and titled, some to be Judges. To 'rule' in his place. He sent them out to parts of his realm, the Kingdom of England, to hear complaints from the people of that area. The people would petition to the King to address some grievance they had with their neighbor. The Judge would hear the complaint and render a ruling to settle the complaint. The Judge would make a record of what he found to be the custom of the people of that area. This was then looked to as the 'common law' for that neighborhood and utilized by Judges that followed in making a decision on similar cases in the same area. This provided some consistency in the Law.

Of course, the Decrees of the King, as the Sovereign, were also 'common law' that the 'common law' of an area could not overrule. Today, our 'King' is our CONSTITUTION, interpreted (understood) in the context of our ORGANIC law.

JUDICIAL OFFICIALS, and their 'opinions', are NOT the 'common law' of this Land

On this land Judicial Officials are BOUND by the Law. They have a DUTY to be LAW ABIDING

They are called "Honorable" because they are expected, and have a duty, to HONOR the law with their compliance

 'Common Law' is our ORGANIC Law, as the Law that our Founders, and those that followed, have pledged their life to preserve.

It is our DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE from the government of England. For Texas, our DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE from Mexico. In both of these Decrees by the "King" of our Land (the people) among the causes giving for overthrowing the King, and his government, is the refusal of Judicial Officials appointed by the King to honor, respect, and comply with the 'Common Law'.

The 'Common Law' for England, and for our Colonies while a part of England, was the Magna Carta, also known as the GREAT CHARTER OF LIBERTIES. The equivalent of our Bill of [individual] Rights. This was LAW that even the King, and his Nobles, and his appointed Judges, had a DUTY to honor, respect, and comply with. First written and made 'common law' of England in 1215 it was the first LAW that even the King, and those he titled as 'Noble', were bound by and had a duty to comply with, honor, abide by. It subjected the King, and his government of England, to THE RULE OF LAW. It gave Sovereign Rights to the Individual, including those who were slaves or not subjects of the realm (not a citizen). The King was no longer the supreme Ruler, the Sole Sovereign, nor were his Judicial Officials, or others he titled, and employed, to perform the functions of government.

It was the DISHONOR of Judges appointed by the King, their refusal to honor and comply with the Law common to all territories of England, that gave cause for our Independence and Revolution establishing WE THE PEOPLE as the KING of this Land with the Declaration of Independence as the first Law that is 'Common' to the people of this Land. Our Constitution for our United States is 'common law' that EVERY Judicial Official, including those sitting in OUR supreme Courthouse, are BOUND by.

Unfortunately, many of our Judicial Officials, including those in OUR supreme Courthouse for our Untied States, and OUR supreme Courthouse for our Texas, no longer feel 'bound' by OUR 'common law'. We have allowed them to create their own 'common law' that they use to deprive us of our 'Common Rights' found in our Bill of [individual] rights that we each have in common pursuant to the self-evident truth that "all men are created equal".

Judicial Opinion, also known as 'Stare Decisis', or 'Judicial Precedent', also referred to as 'Case Law' is Law that binds ONLY other Judicial Officials in lower courts, and even then ONLY to the extent it is applied to the facts of a case in a manner that comports with, and does not overstep, the boundaries of the higher, overruling, 'common law' for this land found in our original decrees / organic law, known as our Declarations of Independence, and our Constitutions, and Statutory Law to the extent the law of Congress and our State Legislature comport with the Law that binds, and limits, their power to make Law.
