Hi Chappy,
I would like to add just one bit of advice for
people who use this defense based upon my experience with helping people defend against traffic tickets. I suggest that they do two additional things to increase their chances of winning. 1. File a judicial notice with the court listing Nicholson Supply Co. v. First Federal Savings & Loan Association of Hardee County, 184 So. 2d and any state laws in this regard, and any state case law in supporting the legal premise that corporation must be represented by an attorney. 2. Do a common
law default beginning with an affidavit stating that the charging agency of government is a corporation and must provide an attorney to represent the claim of the legal claim of the corporation against me pursuant to Nicholson Supply Co. v. First Federal Savings & Loan Association of Hardee County, 184 So. 2d, and give the prosecutor ten days to rebut my claim or be in default.
I learned from famed Jurisdictionary creator/writer, Dr. Graves the importance of doing a Judicial Notice. Many times judges will just ignore your legal argument[s] if you haven’t filled a proper judicial notice with the court to support your argument[s]. Also, the common law default only bolsters your attack on the corporations must be represented in court by a lawyer attack when the prosecution fails to rebut this
claim.
