CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Saturday, April 19, 2025 — We are losing before the unmovable judiciary in Tennessee that does not recognize fundamental rights, particularly that of movement of our bodies and property on the public road.
The origins of these tyrannies include the rejection of God’s law by most professing Christians, which means God judges them to live under men’s laws, which laws are disobeyed by “leaders” and public servants. Corruption means that the good law doesn’t work, and violators are not held to account.
A second point of origin of tyranny: Lawyers and the bar, whose members feed off of crime, wrongdoing, due process violations and block reforms when a member is elected judge. The bar has privatized the law and its functions, blockaded access to justice by fees, delay and gazoozling.

Mr. Fiedler is under a 180-day sentence on conviction of driving and operating on a suspended license a motor scooter.
How was his license “suspended”? He did not apply for a license. A longstanding trick from the bowels of the Tennessee department of safety “assign” him a driver license number, revoke it, and then wait for some cop or deputy to criminally charge him. Mr. Fiedler has faced multiple encounters with a Paris city cop named Mike Ramos. Mr. Fiedler has repeatedly asserted his right to use, apart from privilege, the road thrown open to public vehicular travel, to borrow verbiage from his indictment. He has asserted that he is exercising the right of free movement and travel apart from the privilege. Not only is his liberty lost, but a relationship with a longtime girlfriend, Nicole Beale. Mr. Fiedler has worked as a fast-food cook.
➤ A grand jury in Hickman County has indicted a woman for “practicing law without a license” in using her power of attorney to help her imprisoned son with legal efforts under a 47-year prison sentence. Janet Amick is seeking legal relief for her son, Matthew, as next friend under written power of attorney. She’s been put on a F$45,000 bond apart from any hearing in front of a magistrate. She’s out of state, tending to a sick friend; she hasn’t been served with the indictment.
Everyone except the murder defendant has an absolute right to have a bond set, with the amount determined by connection to community and likelihood of return for court appearances.
The statute of practicing law without a license, or UPL, at T.C.A. § 23-3-101 is unconstitutional for violating numerous assembly, redress and free speech rights, state and federal. It has yet to be challenged. A key element in UPL is exchange for legal opinion, drafting of papers and counsel “for valuable consideration.” This essential element of the crime is routinely overlooked in the charging instrument. The local bar association usually is source of the allegation, and is liable for tort if it acts in bad faith.
The attack on Mrs. Amick is an attack on son Matthew’s right to counsel.

➤ A U.S. district court judge in Chattanooga rules against my novel case seeking to end warrantless arrests, also called general warrants, and to impose an administrative framework upon traffic stops to decriminalize them. Operating of motor vehicles is under state occupational and privilege law, and disputes over activities under license are subject to the Tennessee uniform administrative procedures act. This law, governing all privileges and hearings under privilege, is at T.C.A. 5-4-101 et seq. Judge Travis McDonough denies the right to travel exists and enforces presumptive commerce upon all use of the public right of way. He also overturns T.C.A. § 40-7-103 without directly ruling it unconstitutional.
➤ The Davidson County chancellor, Anne Martin, refused April 10 to order an injunction to stop the civic bloodletting among Tennesseans of 40,800 criminal convictions a year under an extortion program run by departments of revenue and safety under color of Tennessee financial responsibility law of 1977. She said she didn’t want to disturb the status quo and wasn’t sure about the law. Both these grounds for denial are bogus when the benefit of the doubt should have been in favor of the public. Revenue commissioner David Gerregano has been under my administrative notice about limits of the law since July 26, 2023, and has refused to shut down his “Eye of Sauron” program. Meantime, 68,000 Tennesseans have been criminally convicted for “driving without insurance.”
