JURISDICTIONARY SHOWS YOU HOW TO WIN YOUR CASE WITH, OR WITHOUT, A LAWYER!

Tips & Tactics   Video   |   Learn More   |   American Justice Foundation   How to Cite Controlling Law ... Jones v. Smith, 287 So.2d 145 (Fla. 4th DCA, 1998) CORRECTION SEE BELOW! Do you want to win in court? You must learn citation rules! What are all those numbers? What do they mean? Does it seem complicated? It's really simple. Simple, that is, once you see how we explain it for you. I'l tell you a few things today in this Tips & Tactics and leave the rest for you to learn with my affordable, official, 24-hour Jurisdictionary "How to Win in Court" step-by-step self-help course. The first part is easy, of course. The names of the parties are separated with a "v." This means "versus" (as you already know), just as it will be Yankees v. Boston Red Sox in the 2011 World Series. Right? There may be other parties (more than just "Jones" and "Smith" in the fight) but a citation is still good if it names the prominent parties. Now, what about "287 So. 2d 543"? This is also simple (just like everything I explain in my affordable, official, 24-hour Jurisdictionary "How to Win in Court" step-by-step self-help course you should order today, if you haven't already). CORRECTION HERE: The first number is the book where the "Jones v. Smith"written appellate court opinion appears. Tough? Not at all. It's just a book number. Nothing more. See? It's easy! The second number is the page where "Jones v. Smith"appears in book number 287. No excuse. Just got in a hurry to get this out and didn't go back and EDIT as I always teach others to do. The FIRST NUMBER (287) IS THE BOOK NUMBER IN THE SET OF VOLUMES. THE SECOND NUMBER (543 in this example) is the PAGE NUMBER. And, "So.2d" between the two numbers? That's just an abbreviation for a particular set of books known as "reporters" (i.e., books that "report" opinions of appellate court justices that control trial judges and their lower level decisions). In this example it stands for the "Second Edition" of the Southern Reporter. These contain written opinions of appellate courts in Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, and Mississippi. A complete set of the Southern Reporter, Second Edition will cost you around $14,566 but you don't need to buy all those books once you know what I teach in my affordable, official, 24-hour Jurisdictionary"How to Win in Court" step-by-step self-help course. And that's just the Second Edition. If your case were in one of these states (before the internet) you'd have to have access to the First and Third Editions. And, in addition (no pun intended) you'd need nearly $50,000 worth of National Reporters to have complete access to all federal cases, including U.S. Supreme Court cases, to be "in the know". Ahhh. How sweet the internet, because today we have access to all of this for pennies ... and it's all searchable using Boolean operators (also explained in my course). Alright, what about "(Fla. 4th DCA, 1998)"? That's even easier! The case is clearly in the appellate courts of Florida. It is from the Fourth District Court of Appeal (operating from West Palm Beach). The case was decided in 1998. See? I do know how to make this stuff easy! Right? Who said law is too hard for pro se people to learn? If someone said that to you, it's probably because they just didn't know that my course exists and is affordable! YOU WILL LOSE ... if you don't learn how to cite "legal authority" as explained clearly in my official step-by-step, 24-hour Jurisdictionary "How to Win in Court" course! The only opinions that count in court are the recorded opinions of appellate justices who stand in judgment over trial level judges and have power to reverse them if they disagree with the appellate courts' decisions in any way! Your opinions of law count for nothing in court. You must know how to (1) find appellate court opinions that control your judge and (2) know how to properly cite those cases in the papers you file and the statements you make in open court. Show the judge the law so he knows the appellate court will reverse his decision if he rules against YOU! This is how smart pro se people win!

PRO SE LITIGANTS, OR THOSE HELPING YOUR ATTORNEY. DO YOU HAVE THE BURDEN OF PROOF? ARE YOU SURE? IF YOU DO, HAVE YOU MET IT?

Force Your Opponents to Pay Up!

Even experienced lawyers fail to force their opponents to meet the Burden of Proof. It's like making your enemies "pay up", to prove what they say! You never have to prove you don't owe! Nor are you required to prove your dog didn't bite your neighbor, or your driving didn't cause the accident. Everyone demanding any right in court has a burden to prove they're entitled to have the court enforce the right! If they can't meet their burden, they lose and, if you're the defendant, you win! Of course, if you're a plaintiff, it's your job to meet the burden of proof to show you deserve the court's favor. Knowing how the burden works (there's quite a bit more to it than I can explain in this short newsletter) gives you power to win instead of being just another victim! The burden is always on the party making claims. The burden is never on defenders - unless the burden shifts once the claimant meets his burden of proof. In civil cases, the burden is met by presenting the greater weight of admissible evidence (sometimes called the "preponderance of evidence") in support of the fact elements necessary to prevail on at least one "cause of action" (explained in the course and essential knowledge, if you want to win). In criminal cases, the state's burden is met only by presenting evidence that proves the fact elements of the crimes alleged beyond and to the exclusion of any reasonable doubt.  The burden of proof is always on the party asserting a claim, making a motion, demanding a right, etc. Before a court can lawfully grant relief of any kind, the party seeking relief must carry his burden to prove he's entitled to relief ... whether the case is civil or criminal. Some may say, "It's just your word against his." That's never true in court. One side always has the burden. Just like in a tennis match, the ball is always on one side of the net! The burden of proof may shift back and forth during a complicated lawsuit, depending on who claims what and when, however the burden is always on the side seeking relief at any particular moment, the party making a claim, the litigant moving the court, the claimant alleging a fact, etc. WARNING: Lawyers will try to put you "on the defensive". Lawyers will try to trick you into struggling to prove a negative, e.g., that you didn't do something or that something did not happen. Don't get sucked in! People who don't have the official Jurisdictionary "How to Win in Court" course go out of their way to show they were out of town that day or confined to a wheelchair or otherwise struggle to dis-prove something that is entirely the burden of the other side to prove. This is what crooked lawyers do. BEWARE! BE WISE! If a defendant ignorantly tries to dis-prove what his opponent has the burden to prove, his opponent is spared the labor of proving his case! The waters are muddied. The real issues get lost. The judge gets sidetracked. And YOU come out on the short end of the stick every time! Smart people who use the official Jurisdictionary "How to Win in Court" course know how to move the court to take judicial notice that "the burden is on the moving party to prove whatever he claims" and, if the other side cannot prove what he claims, Jurisdictionary students know how to move the court for summary judgment and put an end to their troubles then-and-there!

WIN IN COURT!! PRO SE FORMS & GUIDANCE, EVERYTHING YOU NEED!

Tips & Tactics How to Prove Your Winning Case! Since 1997, when Jurisdictionary began showing people"How to Win in Court", we've received tens of thousands of emails requesting help ... and most of them from people who would have lost but for our help. The problem is "assuming" what it takes to win just gets folks into courtroom trouble! It's certainly reasonable to assume, if the facts and law are on your side, that you should win in court! The reality is, however: That's "Just Not True! Facts and Law are not enough to win! You must PROVE your winning case! People have a hard time with this concept. It does seem reasonable, if one knows the facts and knows the law that the court should rule in your favor. But! That's not how our courts work! In an "adversarial system" like ours, both sides compete to see which can pile the most "admissible evidence" into the court's official record. The one with the greater weight of "admissible evidence" wins. Notice "admissible evidence" is not "FACTS". A fact may be a fact, a certain, undeniable fact, and yet not be admissible evidence! To be admissible, a fact must be: relevant, reliable, competent, not privileged, and in compliance with other rules, etc. To imagine one can march into court with "facts" and get justice, demanding, "The law is on my side," is to imagine something that simply is not true! The PROOF is in the PROVING! And, proving can only be done by "admissible evidence". Too many good people lose simply because they do not yet know what is "admissible" and what is not! The Federal Rules of Evidence that control every federal case (civil and criminal) throughout the land, are printed in the Thomson-West edition of the Rules of Court on only 13 pages! Believe it or not. That's 13 pages between you and success or defeat! People have been using Jurisdictionary for years to win in court. They learn the fundamentals and how to apply them wisely and effectively, and you can, too! What good are "rights", if you don't know how to use the rules correctly toenforce your rights? Why remain in legal darkness? It really IS this simple! There's a lot to learn, but you can learn it in 24 hours, and none of it is too difficult for the average 8th grader. The Rules are fair. The judge may not be fair. The lawyer on the other side probably won't be fair! But, the Rules are fair! YOU can learn how to use the rules to win! It is NOT DIFFICULT! Please be careful who you trust to teach you about the law and how our courts work! There are all kinds of folks who hold themselves out as "legal gurus." There is a "movement" in our nation that's lost faith in America. The leaders of this "movement" see only evil and none of the good. You can detect them by their anger and the "nifty tricks" they say you can use to win in court to get around the rules. The fact is, learning the Rules is very, very easy! Believe me: You may be assured that the rules ARE VERY FAIR TO BOTH SIDES. The Rules of Court are what guarantee your rights! If you cannot enforce your rights, you might as well not have any ... because a "right" you cannot enforce is not worth much! Even the Constitution itself is a set of "rules". The Rules of Court go hand-in-hand and are your powerto secure Justice and enforce your rights! Nothing else works! Try writing letters to the governor. Doesn't work. Write letters to the Bar. Doesn't work. Write letters to your congressman. Doesn't work. Carry signs in the street. Doesn't work. Send emails to all your friends. Doesn't work. Learn how to use the Rules of Evidence and Rules of Procedure in Court ... THEY WORK FAIRLY FOR YOU IF YOU KNOW HOW TO WORK THEM! Most of you have taken a sacred oath before Almighty God to uphold the Constitution of the United States. Yet, very, very few of you have any idea how to enforcethe rights our Constitution promises or any of the rights promised to you by your state constitutions, statutes, or common law? Why? Because the legal profession doesn't want you to know! Make you angry? I hope so! Let's tell everyone: Now is the time to learn! Are you facing one of these battles? Wrongful Foreclosure? Custody Child Support Taxation Issues Property Rights? Criminal Charges Contract Disputes? Slander Landlord-Tenant Problems Etcetera ....... Short of grabbing your squirrel gun and a box of ammo, the only way you can get your "redress of grievances" is through using our court system wisely. But! Notice the word, "wisely". Jurisdictionary reveals the secrets lawyers don't want you to know! The process is simple, and YOU can do it! If you have a lawyer, he may be unwilling to do it. He may be afraid to do it. But, if you want to win, someone must do it! The things you don't yet know are the very things your opponent will use to destroy your case! Lawsuits are an axe fight. Jurisdictionary is your axe! = = = = = = = = = = = = Learning is up to you! There was a bumper sticker many years ago that said, "If you want Peace, work for Justice!" Being angry won't help you or anyone else! Believing internet legal myths is just plain stupid. The only thing that can help is for each and every one of us to learn and teach others how to use the official rules of due process that make Justice possible, rules that control the courts, rules that stop corruption, rules that require judges to grant justice, rules that were paid for by far too much innocent blood already. Help Jurisdictionary help others, uplifting the hopes and encouraging the determination of the American People and even people in other nations around the world where justice is for sale to the highest bidder and good people are sacrificed on the altar of money! Someone once said, "The truth will set you free!" If YOU believe that - if you really believe it - please do all you can to promote the Public Legal Education mission of Jurisdictionary to empower people who are all too often destroyed in court simply because they don't know the rules! There's never been but two ways to win any contest! Either you cheat or use the rules to your advantage. Cheaters don't win all that often. Food for thought? Forward this article to your friends! - - - - - - - - Winning is EASY once you know the rules and how to use them effectively! Don't let anyone intimidate you into thinking lawsuits are too complicated for mere mortals to grasp or deceive you into thinking all lawyers are smarter than the rest of the human race ... 'cause it isn't so! Anyone can learn the rules required to win! Anyone! You simply need to start with a clear view of the field of play, the object of the game, and the rules that control all the players ... including judges and lawyers! It IS simple ... as many thousands have learned! Since launching Jurisdictionary in 1997, the most debilitating factor infecting people with hopelessness is the fear that breeds in lack of knowing how the game of litigation is played to win! Not knowing creates fear. Knowledge displaces fear with the confidence! Take any apparently complicated thing apart to examine its component parts and you quickly see how they all fit together. When you first begin, it seems impossible. But! If someone shows you how each separate part works with each of the other parts, even the most complicated things are suddenly easy-to-understand. The mystery my profession has woven disappears! Every one of you has great legal power! Sadly, many good people never discover the power that is theirs ... so people who know how to use the rules of court and the law of the case take advantage of them! Jurisdictionary wants to turn the tables on crooked lawyers and biased judges and protect the "little guys and gals" that are being taken advantage of simply because no one has ever come out with a course like this. No one has ever cared enough to tell you the truth. No one has ever made it this easy-to-understand! It is easy-to-understand how to win in court once you see things the way I teach them!
