VII.   Law

A Summons is a formal writ of demand for someone to attend an Official Forum and Event at a given time and day based on one or more presumptions that if not rebutted in writing before the day and time are presumed to stand true.

The word Summons was created in the 16th Century from two Latin words sumo meaning "to take up, to presume, assume, arrogate or undertake; to exact a punishment" and monere meaning "to remind, advise, warn, instruct or foretell".

A Summons is usually issued in matters before a competent court to compel by presumption someone to attend in the presumed capacity of defendant, juror or witness.

While a Summons may seek to use threats of force and violence to compel a man or woman to attend an Official Forum such as a court, by its original definition a Summons remains an unrebutted presumption of jurisdiction based usually on the claim of authority that the person in question is presumed an agent of the authority issuing the summons.

The use of threats of force and violence in the issuing of a Summons is a corruption of law and forbidden with any such instruments having no force of law and therefore null and void from the beginning.

As a True Person is both Executor and Beneficiary of their mind, body and soul, no party may rightfully claim higher authority to compel them to attend any forum or event against their will. Providing such false presumptions are rebutted prior to the day and time listed on a summons, the instrument and its presumptions cease to have any effect.

The ignoring of a competent rejection of a summons received by a True Person negates its legitimacy.
