Time: Sat Dec 13 11:11:19 1997 To: repub-d@u.washington.edu From: Paul Andrew Mitchell [address in tool bar] Subject: auto insurance Cc: Bcc: sls References: Insurance is only necessary for "motor vehicles," and these are strictly defined. If the State of California is not the holder-in-due-course of the manufacturer's statement of origin ("MSO"), then it has no legal interest in the car and cannot compel you to insure an interest which the State does not have. Your remedy is to: 1. compel discovery of the MSO, or an admission that the State DMV destroyed it; 2. institute quiet title proceedings as to the lawful ownership of the car. If the State does admit they had it, at some point in time, then you prove unlawful conversion. It is not hard to prove that they had it, as some point in time, because dealers are REQUIRED to convey the MSO to the State DMV's; this practice is uniform across all of the several states! The State of Arizona REQUIRES dealers to convey the MSO to the State, as a condition of registering any new "motor vehicle." If you have the MSO for a car or truck, it is no longer a "motor vehicle"; the car or truck is actually a "household good", by definition. You have the fundamental Right to own and operate private property, as long as there is no lien, or "cloud," on the title. A "certificate of title" is not proof of ownership by you; it is actually evidence that the State holds the real title. More details will follow this message. /s/ Paul Mitchell, Candidate for Congress http://supremelaw.com At 09:59 AM 12/13/97 -0800, you wrote: > >Paul Mitchell wrote: >>There is an auto insurer who was buying >>radio slots recently, to announce that >>many insurers breach their contracts, >>if and when a claim is presented. >> >>I cannot remember which company it was, >>however.
