________________________________)

COMES NOW the United States (hereinafter “Intervenor”) ex relatione Paul Andrew Mitchell, Citizen of ONE OF the United States of America and Private Attorney General (hereinafter “Relator”), to move this honorable Court for an ORDER striking APPELLEES’ OPPOSITION TO MOTIONS OF PAUL ANDREW MITCHELL FOR “INTERVENTION OF RIGHT” AND FOR A PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION, as filed in error by EILEEN J. O’CONNOR, FRANK P. CIHLAR, GRETCHEN M. WOLFINGER, JOHN S. GORDON and CONSUELO S. WOODHEAD [sic] (hereinafter “Attorneys”), and to provide formal Notice of same to all interested parties.

Intervenor now documents the following meritorious reasons in support of the instant MOTION TO STRIKE, to wit:

THE ATTORNEYS ARE CONFUSING

THE INTERVENOR AND THE RELATOR

The Intervenor is the United States (federal government) appearing ex relatione (“ex rel.”) Paul Andrew Mitchell, Private Attorney General.

The term “United States” figures quite prominently in the Constitution for the United States of America, as lawfully amended (“U.S. Constitution”). See Guarantee Clause in the U.S. Constitution, for example.

The Relator is Paul Andrew Mitchell, a Citizen of California State and a qualified Private Attorney General:

Both statutes [RICO and Clayton Act] bring to bear the pressure of “private attorneys general” on a serious national problem for which public prosecutorial resources are deemed inadequate; the mechanism chosen to reach the objective in both the Clayton Act and RICO is the carrot of treble damages.

[Agency Holding Corp. v. Malley-Duff & Associates]

[107 S.Ct. 2759, 483 U.S. 143, 151 (1987)]

[bold emphasis added]

A private Citizen may move a federal court on behalf of the United States ex relatione. United States ex rel. Toth v. Quarles, 350 U.S. 11 (1955). This latter authority was properly and timely cited in Intervenor’s MOTION FOR INTERVENTION OF RIGHT, and never rebutted in any manner whatsoever by the Attorneys supra.

As discussed in Attachment “A” of Intervenor’s MOTION FOR INTERVENTION OF RIGHT, the United States intervened properly in USA et al. v. Microsoft Corporation. See Internet URL:

http://www.supremelaw.org/cc/microsoft/index.htm

INTERVENOR HAS A STATUTORY RIGHT TO INTERVENE

PROVIDED THAT THE PREREQUISITE CONDITIONS ARE MET

Intervenor and the Attorneys have correctly cited the federal statute at 28 U.S.C. 2403(a) as the former’s statutory right to intervene, provided that the requisite conditions itemized in that statute are completely satisfied.

Given that Intervenor has a statutory right to intervene, there is no procedural requirement for Intervenor first to request leave of this Court to intervene in the instant appeal.

Chiefly, the constitutionality of an Act of Congress affecting the public interest has now been drawn into question.

The constitutionality of the federal Jury Selection and Service Act at 28 U.S.C. 1865(b)(1) was properly and timely challenged in the cases of USA v. Gilbertson, Eight Circuit docket number #97‑2099‑MNST, and In Re Grand Jury Subpoena Served on New Life Health Center Company, Ninth Circuit emergency appeal #96‑16145 (USDC/Tucson #GJ‑95‑1‑6‑JMR), among others.

In Gilbertson supra, the Eighth Circuit issued an UNPUBLISHED summary opinion holding that the Internal Revenue Code is not vague. Subsequently, a 3-judge panel at the Eight Circuit ruled that UNPUBLISHED opinions are unconstitutional. See Anastasoff v. United States of America, Eighth Circuit docket number #99‑3917‑EM, filed August 22, 2000 A.D.

Prior to the issuance of that UNPUBLISHED opinion, the People of the United States of America ex rel. Paul Andrew Mitchell applied for intervention in that appeal, but the Eight Circuit never ruled on that application, despite a subsequent demand for same by the People supra.

For the convenience of this honorable Court, and to minimize Relator’s mounting clerical and postage expenses, Intervenor refers this Court to the following Internet URL’s and incorporates same, as if set forth fully here, to wit:

http://www.supremelaw.org/cc/gilberts/opening.htm

http://www.supremelaw.org/cc/gilberts/intentm3.filed.htm

If this Court should so order, Intervenor will oblige by serving certified hard copies of the above pleadings on all interested parties and on the Clerk of this Court. See PROOF OF SERVICE infra.

The emergency appeal In Re Grand Jury Subpoena Served on New Life Health Center Company, Ninth Circuit emergency appeal #96‑16145, was denied because, in the opinion of this Court, that case had not reached final judgment when a bench WARRANT was issued for the arrest of Eugene A. Burns. In the latter appeal, Relator did personally deliver all pertinent pleadings to staff attorneys at the Ninth Circuit, in support of docket number #96‑16145.

Pursuant to Rule 201(d) of the Federal Rules of Evidence (“FREV”) Intervenor hereby requests mandatory judicial notice of the two pleadings from USA v. Gilbertson cited supra, and of the entire Ninth Circuit docket file #96‑16145 supra, as if set forth fully here.

http://www.supremelaw.org/cc/nlhc/swornaff.htm

(If this Court should so order, Intervenor will oblige by serving certified hard copies of the latter pleadings on all interested parties and on the Clerk of this Court. See PROOF OF SERVICE infra.)

The latter URL (“swornaff”) is a verified version of Chapter 11 from the book entitled “The Federal Zone: Cracking the Code of Internal Revenue,” which is the subject of Ninth Circuit appeal number #02-15269 in the case of Mitchell v. AOL Time Warner, Inc. et al. now pending before this honorable Court. An authentic electronic edition of this book can be found at Internet URL:

Constitutional issues are never frivolous. See Arising Under Clause at Article III, Section 2, Clause 1, in the U.S. Constitution, as mirrored by the Supremacy Clause and 28 U.S.C. 1331 (federal question). The U.S. Constitution, Laws and Treaties are all the supreme Law of the Land.

DESPITE A PROPER AND TIMELY OBJECTION BY INTERVENOR,

THE ATTORNEYS HAVE FAILED TO CITE ANY POWER(S) OF ATTORNEY

The Attorneys correctly allege that Intervenor has formally objected, in advance, to officers of the U.S. Department of Justice responding to Intervenor’s MOTION FOR PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION.

To reiterate, more precisely Intervenor formally has already objected, in advance, to any and all attempts by duly appointed officers of the U.S. Department of Justice to appear on behalf of IRS, to answer Intervenor’s MOTION FOR PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION. See 5 U.S.C. 551(1)(C).

Pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 301(f)(2), only the duly appointed IRS Chief Counsel has been delegated lawful power(s) of attorney to appear on behalf of Respondent IRS. Title 31, U.S.C., has been enacted into positive law; Title 26, U.S.C. has not, however.

Similarly, the Solicitor General also appears to lack any lawful power(s) of attorney to appear on behalf of Respondent IRS.

Contrary to allegations by the Attorneys, Intervenor’s INJUNCTION MOTION is not based on Relator’s status as the Intervenor, because Relator is demonstrably not the Intervenor (on this particular point, see discussion above).

The pertinent “threshold matter” is whether or not the Attorneys supra do, or do not, have any power(s) of attorney to represent the named Appellees, and the IRS, in the instant appeal.

Intervenor submits that they do not!

The Attorneys had a legal and a moral obligation to answer Intervenor’s timely objection in this regard, and they have failed to provide any constitutional or statutory authority(s) supporting their claim to having a right to represent said Appellees. See U.S. v. Tweel, 550 F.2d 297, 299 (5^th Cir. 1977) (silence can only be equated with fraud, where there is a legal or a moral duty to speak, or where an inquiry left unanswered would be intentionally misleading).

Their silence proves that they do not have any power(s) of attorney to represent the Appellees. See Carmine v. Bowen, 64 A. 932 (1906) (silence activates estoppel; silence constitutes an implied representation of the existence of the state of facts in question).

INTERVENOR FORMALLY OFFERS TO PROVE PROBABLE SUCCESS,

IRREPARABLE INJURY AND SUFFICIENTLY SERIOUS QUESTIONS

With all due respect to the Attorneys’ arguments, Intervenor hereby offers formally to prove that verified facts already filed in several State and federal court cases, in which Relator was either a Federal Witness or an eyewitness, do establish probable success, irreparable injury, and sufficiently serious questions to make the INJUNCTION MOTION a fair ground for litigation, with the balance of hardships tipping decidedly in favor of said MOTION.

Without belaboring each and every court case in which relevant evidence has been filed, Intervenor has already carried its burden of proof in part by citing the record in USA v. Wishart, Clerk’s docket number #CR‑00‑20227‑JF (USDC San Jose, California). Prior to breaking and entering illegally into Relator’s private rented room in Campbell, California, defendant Donald E. Wishart in that case (“Wishart”) retained Relator to prepare the pleadings and related documents now listed at Internet URL:

http://www.supremelaw.org/cc/wishart/index.htm

One of the pleadings executed by Donald E. Wishart in that case was his FIRST CROSS-COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY & INJUNCTIVE RELIEF, now available at Internet URL:

http://www.supremelaw.org/cc/wishart/cross.complaint.2.htm

(For the convenience of this honorable Court, and to minimize Relator’s mounting clerical and postage expenses, Intervenor refers this Court to the latter Internet URL and incorporates same, as if set forth fully here. If this Court should so order, Intervenor will oblige by serving certified hard copies of the latter CROSS‑COMPLAINT on all interested parties and on the Clerk of this Court. See PROOF OF SERVICE infra.)

The latter CROSS-COMPLAINT properly and timely sought an interlocutory ORDER declaring, as a matter of Law, that:

(1) IRS was never created by any specific Act of Congress, either in Title 31, U.S.C., or elsewhere;

(2) DOJ enjoys no general powers of attorney to represent IRS, or IRS employees, in any federal courts;

(3) IRS is not an “agency” as that term is used in the FOIA at 5 U.S.C. §§ 551(1) and 552(f);

(4) IRS employees are not required to execute the Oath of Office mandated by Article VI, Clause 3, in the U.S. Constitution;

(5) IRS employees are not required by any existing federal statutes to execute the Oath of Office mandated by Article VI, Clause 3, in the U.S. Constitution;

(6) the President has appointed, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, an Assistant General Counsel who is presently the Chief Counsel for IRS;

(7) the IRS Chief Counsel has no authority to delegate general power(s) of attorney to DOJ for purposes of appearing in federal court on behalf of IRS, or IRS employees;

(8) employees of the IRS are not “collectors, or other officers of the revenue or customs” [sic], as those terms are used at 28 U.S.C. 547(3);

and all other relief which that United States District Court deemed just and proper, under those circumstances. See similar RELIEF as recently requested in the instant appeal by Intervenor’s MOTION FOR REHEARING EN BANC, as served on April 25, 2002 A.D.

Wishart’s REPLY TO GOVERNMENT’S RESPONSE TO DEFENDANT’S FIRST CROSS-COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF can be found at Internet URL:

http://www.supremelaw.org/cc/wishart/reply.cross.complaint.2.htm

Notably, by citing the federal regulation at 28 CFR 0.70(b), the U.S. Attorneys in Wishart supra openly admitted that they have no power(s) of attorney to represent IRS employees in proceedings pertaining to the misconduct of IRS personnel.

Then, Cross-Plaintiff Donald E. Wishart filed His VERIFIED CROSS‑COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF AND MONETARY DAMAGES, and His FIRST SUPPLEMENT TO CROSS‑COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY & INJUNCTIVE RELIEF AND DAMAGES, available respectively at the following Internet URL’s, to wit:

http://www.supremelaw.org/cc/wishart/cross.complaint.htm

http://www.supremelaw.org/cc/wishart/first.supplement.to.cross.complaint.htm

(For the convenience of this honorable Court, and to minimize Relator’s mounting clerical and postage expenses, Intervenor refers this Court to the latter Internet URL’s and incorporates same, as if set forth fully here. If this Court should so order, Intervenor will oblige by serving certified hard copies of the latter URL’s on all interested parties and on the Clerk of this Court. See PROOF OF SERVICE infra.)

Wishart’s FIRST SUPPLEMENT supra is almost a carbon copy of Intervenor’s MOTION FOR PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION in the instant appeal.

Soon after the latter CROSS-COMPLAINT and FIRST SUPPLEMENT were docketed by the Clerk of that court, U.S. District Judge Jeremy Fogel issued a routine MINUTE ORDER barring any new motions. The U.S. Attorneys in that case prepared their motion to dismiss but, in courteous deference to Judge Fogel’s MINUTE ORDER, they refrained from actually filing same.

Thus, no motion to dismiss was properly before Judge Fogel.

Then, at a preliminary hearing which Relator attended as a gallery witness, on October 31, 2000 A.D., Judge Fogel dismissed said CROSS-COMPLAINT sua sponte, but without a proper motion to dismiss having been filed. Then, Judge Fogel openly admitted ‑‑ on the record, in open court, and in a verbal admission witnessed by Relator ‑‑ that he, Jeremy Fogel, was practicing law. It is a high misdemeanor and impeachable offense for a federal judge to practice law from the bench. See 28 U.S.C. 454.

More to the merits, the Attorneys in the instant appeal have offered absolutely no verified proof whatsoever that the documentary evidence already cited by Intervenor is false, incorrect or unreliable in any detail, or in any way, shape, or form.

Once again, attorneys for the government in Gilbertson supra never once offered any rebuttal(s) or any contrary evidence properly contesting the facts as documented by Gilbertson in the essay entitled “BATF/IRS ‑‑ Criminal Fraud,” by the late William Cooper, Veritas magazine, Issue Number 6, September 1995 (“Cooper’s essay”). Gilbertson’s NOTICE AND DEMAND FOR MANDATORY JUDICIAL NOTICE of Cooper’s essay is available at the following Internet URL:

http://www.supremelaw.org/cc/gilberts/usdc/judnot06.htm

(For the convenience of this honorable Court, and to minimize Relator’s mounting clerical and postage expenses, Intervenor refers this Court to the latter Internet URL and incorporates same, as if set forth fully here. If this Court should so order, Intervenor will oblige by serving certified hard copies of the latter URL on all interested parties and on the Clerk of this Court. See PROOF OF SERVICE infra.)

The very same essay by William Cooper has been filed and entered into evidence in the case of USA v. Vance E. Knudson, USDC/Nebraska docket number #4:CV96‑3275. Knudson’s NOTICE AND DEMAND FOR MANDATORY JUDICIAL NOTICE of Cooper’s essay is available at Internet URL:

http://www.supremelaw.org/cc/knudson/judnot01.htm

(For the convenience of this honorable Court, and to minimize Relator’s mounting clerical and postage expenses, Intervenor refers this Court to the latter Internet URL and incorporates same, as if set forth fully here. If this Court should so order, Intervenor will oblige by serving certified hard copies of the latter URL on all interested parties and on the Clerk of this Court. See PROOF OF SERVICE infra.)

Attorneys for the government in Knudson supra never once offered any rebuttal(s) or any contrary evidence properly contesting the facts as documented in Cooper’s essay.

And, the very same essay was also filed and entered into evidence in the case of State of Alabama v. William Michael Kemp, after removal to the District Court of the United States, Northern Judicial District of Alabama, Middle Division, docket number #CV‑97‑H‑0022‑M. Cooper’s essay was Attachment “I” in Kemp’s MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES PROVING THE VOLUNTARY NATURE OF FEDERAL INCOME TAXES (incorporating all attached exhibits by reference) which is available at Internet URL:

http://www.supremelaw.org/cc/kemp/memorand.htm

(For the convenience of this honorable Court, and to minimize Relator’s mounting clerical and postage expenses, Intervenor refers this Court to the latter Internet URL and incorporates same, as if set forth fully here. If this Court should so order, Intervenor will oblige by serving certified hard copies of the latter URL on all interested parties and on the Clerk of this Court. See PROOF OF SERVICE infra.)

Likewise, Attorneys for the government in Kemp supra never once offered any rebuttal(s) or any contrary evidence properly contesting the facts as documented in Cooper’s essay.

REMEDY REQUESTED

All premises having been duly considered, Intervenor respectfully requests this honorable Court to issue a routine ORDER striking APPELLEES’ OPPOSITION TO MOTIONS OF PAUL ANDREW MITCHELL FOR “INTERVENTION OF RIGHT” AND FOR A PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION, for having been submitted to this Court in error and without any lawful power(s) of attorney for the Attorneys in question to represent any of the named Appellees, even after said Attorneys and Appellees were properly and timely challenged to exhibit same in this Court and in the district court below.

Thank you very much for your professional consideration.
