VERIFICATION Counsel hereby verifies, under penalty of perjury, under the laws of the United States of America, without the "United States", that the following statement of facts is true and correct, to the best of Counsel's current information, knowledge, and belief, so help Me God, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1746(1). Affidavit of Default and of Probable Cause: Page 1 of 7 When Counsel was first retained by the General Manager of the Company to prepare a civil defense against the subpoena allegedly served upon the Company in the instant case, Counsel first contacted the office of Mr. Robert L. Miskell [sic] to request a copy of the original application mentioned on subpoena numbered GJ #95-1-137, dated March 5, 1996, to wit: "This subpoena is issued on application of the United States of America RLM:js 9500556 SA Cardenas, IRS" In response to Counsel's telephone request for said application, Mr. Miskell said, "You've got all you're gonna get." Counsel then answered, "Thank you very much." Mr. Miskell then hung up. Counsel attaches hereto a copy of the MEMO by Counsel to Dr. Gene Burns, dated March 11, 1996, which documents this telephone request. Said MEMO is incorporated here by reference as if set forth fully herein. Subsequently, on May 12, 1996, Counsel submitted a proper request under the Freedom of Information Act ("FOIA") to ROBERT L. MISKELL [sic] for said application. A true and correct copy of this original FOIA request is attached hereto and incorporated by reference, as if set forth fully herein. Upon receiving no documents in response to said FOIA request, Counsel submitted a proper and timely FOIA appeal, dated May 24, 1996. A true and correct copy of the original FOIA appeal is attached hereto and incorporated by reference, as if set forth fully herein. Affidavit of Default and of Probable Cause: Page 2 of 7 On June 6, 1996, Counsel filed a pleading with the Clerk of this honorable Court, which pleading was entitled PETITION FOR CLARIFICATION, STATUS REPORT ON FOIA REQUESTS NOW PENDING, AND NOTICE OF CHALLENGE TO CONSTITUTIONALITY OF STATUTE: 5 U.S.C. 551(1)(A), (B): FOIA Exemption for Judiciary. In the STATUS REPORT section of this pleading, Counsel provided this honorable Court with an up-to-date status report of all FOIA requests and appeals then outstanding. At that time, the application requested in the original FOIA request and the original FOIA appeal had still not been produced. On January 6, 1997, Counsel filed another pleading entitled NOTICE AND DEMAND FOR PROOF OF JURISDICTION IN THE PARTICULARS: Rule 201(d), Federal Rules of Evidence. Said pleading contained the following crucial paragraph, to wit: Accordingly, the "Application of the United States of America" appears to be fraudulent on its face, and must be entered into the permanent court record of the instant case, as a matter of law, to prove, once and for all, whether or not this honorable Court had any jurisdiction to proceed over the subject matter in the first instance. It is well established that subject matter jurisdiction can be raised at any time. Said pleading, dated January 6, 1997, provided an explicit and conspicuous NOTICE OF DEADLINE, demanding that said application, with the requisite proof of subject matter jurisdiction, be filed in the official court record and also served on all interested party(s) no later than 5:00 p.m. on Friday, January 17, 1997. Counsel hereby testifies, under penalty of perjury, under the laws of the United States of America, without the "United States", that said deadline passed without production of either the requested application, or of any proof whatsoever of this honorable Court's jurisdiction to proceed over the subject matter of the instant case in the first instance. Affidavit of Default and of Probable Cause: Page 3 of 7 Accordingly, Counsel hereby invokes the doctrine of estoppel by acquiescence to assert Counsel's fundamental Right, on behalf of the Company, to declare this entire proceeding to have been ultra vires ab initio (without authority from the very beginning). See Carmine v. Bowen, 64 A. 932 (1906). Counsel hereby declares, notoriously on record and for the benefit of all interested party(s), Counsel's intent to take all appropriate legal and lawful actions to enforce all rights which have been impaired, in whole or in part, and to recover all real, consequential, and exemplary damages inflicted, by all persons alleging to be federal officers, employees and/or contract agents of the United States (federal government) in the instant case. In particular, Counsel hereby holds the man claiming to be United States District Judge John M. Roll personally responsible for over 112 felony violations of Title 18, United States Code, together with all his accomplices and co-conspirators, acting in concert to violate 18 U.S.C. 242 and 241, in addition to violating the prohibitions against obstruction of correspondence, jury tampering, obstruction of justice, perjury of oath, barratry, and contempt of court. Other accessories and co-conspirators with John M. Roll include, but are not limited to, Janet Napolitano, Robert L. Miskell, Evangelina Cardenas, Robert A. Johnson, Richard H. Weare, and William M. McCool, all employed either in the Department of Justice, in the "Internal Revenue Service" [sic], or in the United States District Court in Arizona state Affidavit of Default and of Probable Cause: Page 4 of 7 Executed on February 25, 1997: /s/ Paul Andrew Mitchell ________________________________ Paul Andrew Mitchell, B.A., M.S.

This is My firm promise to pay fees and costs for locating, duplicating, and mailing to Me certified copies of the records requested below. If some of this request is exempt from release, please furnish Me with those portions reasonably segregable. I am requiring certified copies of the documents requested, in lieu of personal inspection of same. Documents requested: 1. "Application of the United States of America" upon which the Subpoena to Testify before Grand Jury, dated March 5, 1996, was issued to the New Life Health Center Company, Tucson, Arizona The requested records are not exempt from disclosure because they: (A) could not reasonably be expected to interfere with law enforcement proceedings; (B) would not deprive a person of a right to a fair trial or an impartial adjudication; (C) could not reasonably be expected to constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal property; (D) could not reasonably be expected to disclose the identity of a confidential source; (E) would not disclose techniques and procedures for law enforcement investigations or prosecutions, and would not disclose guidelines for law enforcement investigations or prosecutions; (F) could not reasonably be expected to endanger the life or physical safety of any individual.

MISKELL Acapulco Building, Suite 8310 110 South Church Avenue Tucson, Arizona state Postal Zone 85701/tdc Dear Mr. Miskell: This is an appeal under the Freedom of Information Act. On May 12, 1996, I requested documents under the Freedom of Information Act. To date, the requested documents have not been produced. I hereby appeal your failure to produce the requested documents. The documents that were withheld must be disclosed under the FOIA because the original Thirteenth Amendment prevents government officials from exercising privileges of a nobility class, such as being exempt from the principles of open government and freedom of information. Evidence of the original Thirteenth Amendment has been filed with the Foreperson of the Grand Jury and with the Clerk of the United States District Court in Tucson, Arizona state (a Republic). Disclosure of the documents which I requested is in the public interest because the information, and the procedure for obtaining the information, are likely to contribute significantly to public understanding of the operations and activities of government and are not primarily in My commercial interest. Moreover, the information requested will help to improve public confidence in the integrity of the Executive Branch of the federal government, or to confirm that there are people attempting to exercise executive branch powers in America without any authority whatsoever. Thank you for your careful consideration of this appeal. Respectfully submitted, /s/ Paul Andrew Mitchell Paul Andrew, Mitchell, B.A., M.S.

Bauman Independent Counsel Office of the Chief Postal Inspector United States Postal Inspection Service 475 L'Enfant Plaza, S.W., Room 3417 Washington, D.C. Re: Mail Fraud Conspiracy by United States District Judge John M. Roll Dear Mr. Bauman: This is My formal NOTICE to you that I have received, but not accepted, your letter to Me dated January 21, 1997, in which you made an administrative determination, without citing any authorities, that the conduct of United States District Judge John M. Roll does not constitute a violation of Title 18, U.S.C., Section 1341, Mail Fraud. Please be informed of the fact that I am specifically complaining of obstruction of mail generally, and obstruction of correspondence, specifically. See 18 U.S.C. 1701 and 1702, respectively. Mr. Bauman, there are a very large number of things which John M. Roll's conduct was not; but, his conduct clearly obstructed numerous pieces of registered, certified, and first class U.S. Mail which I prepared and mailed myself, specifically to the foreperson of a federal grand jury. Please be informed that I have previously discussed this matter with several USPS employees, including counter clerks, route carriers, and postmasters. Their opinions have been unanimous in responding that federal judges do not have authority to obstruct registered, certified, and/or first class United States Mail, particularly when return receipt and restricted delivery services have been requested and purchased, and particularly when said mail has been specifically directed to a federal grand jury foreperson. I relied upon those opinions in My subsequent efforts to bring Judge Roll's conduct to the atttention of proper government employees, and to claim the rewards which are now rightfully Mine, regardless of whether you prosecute the employees involved, or not. DEMAND Accordingly, I hereby make this formal demand upon you, and upon the United States Postal Service in general, to provide Me with a certified copy of all constitutional provisions, statutes, and regulations which specifically authorize United States District Judges to obstruct registered, certified, and first class United States Mail, when restricted delivery and return receipt services have been requested, and when said mail was directed specifically to the foreperson of a federal grand jury convened under auspices of a United States District Court. NOTICE OF DEADLINE Time is now of the essence. If you do not provide the certified documents demanded above, on or before 5:00 p.m. on Monday, March 3, 1997, I shall be entitled to proceed on the basis of the conclusive presumption that the documents demanded do not exist, as a matter of fact, and that there are no constitutional, statutory, or regulatory authorities anywhere in federal law which authorize United States District Judges to obstruct registered, certified, and first class United States Mail, when restricted delivery and return receipt services have been requested, and when said mail has been directed specifically to the foreperson of a federal grand jury. Your silence in this matter will cause a fraud to be committed upon Me, pursuant to U.S. v. Tweel, 550 F.2d 297, 299 (1977), and your silence will activate estoppel by acquiescence, pursuant to Carmine v. Bowen, 64 A. 932 (1906). Thank you very much for your consideration. I will look forward to your timely and considerate response to this proper and lawful Notice and Demand. Sincerely yours, /s/ Paul Andrew Mitchell Paul Andrew, Mitchell, B.A., M.S.

Moriarty Senior Consumer Affairs Associate United States Postal Service c/o 475 L'Enfant Plaza S.W. Washington [20260-2200] DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA FROM: Paul Andrew, Mitchell, B.A., M.S. Counselor at Law DATE: February 25, 1997 SUBJECT: Obstruction of Correspondence by U.S. District Judge John M. Roll REFERENCE: 70300084:yla Thank you for your letter dated February 21, 1997. For your information, I have enclosed materials which explain the complaint which I have brought against U.S. District Judge John M. Roll for 28 counts of obstruction of correspondence, 28 counts of jury tampering, 28 counts of obstruction of justice, and 28 counts of conspiracy to commit all of the above. See Ninth Circuit Docket Number #96-80380, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 372(c). I hereby add to these charges 28 additional counts of deprivation of fundamental Rights under color of law, in violation of 18 U.S.C. 242, since the conduct of John M. Roll and his several accomplices and co-conspirators deprived Me of My fundamental Right to Petition Government for Redress of Grievances, in violation of the Petition Clause in the First Amendment. See also 18 U.S.C. 241, the conspiracy statute. For your information, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the Petition Clause Right is the Right conservative of all other rights. See Chambers v Baltimore & Ohio R.R., 207 U.S. 142, 148 (1907). Please note also that, in my letter to Postal Inspector James A. Crawford dated January 21, 1997, I have formally requested an application for monetary rewards and submitted notice of my intent to present a written claim for reward payment. Please expedite the delivery of this application to Me immediately. See USPS Poster #296, May 1995. I trust that the enclosed materials are self-explanatory. If you should have any additional questions in this matter, please don't hesitate to write to the lawful mailing location as shown below. Thank you very much for your consideration.
