Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256 Filed 10/25/10 Page 2 of 32

Petitioner's Motion to Dismiss Citing Prima Facie Fact and Evidence to support claim

Lack of Subject Matter JURISDICTION.

Petitioner Buczek, (hereafter Petitioner), files his answer to government's motion for bail

revocation herein with this affidavit.

1. Petitioner has repeatedly asked this Court to sanction or temper AU SA Anthony Bruce's

(hereafter Bruce) recent repeated mailings to Petitioner's house with veiled threats,

intimidation and harassment.

2. To date, this Court has not tempered, nor stopped Bruce's constant mailings to Petitioner.

3. AUSA Bruce is attempting with these constant mailings to entice, bait or irk Petitioner into a

controversy or argument. (See: Exhibit C collecting letters of Bruce to Petitioner from

March 2008 to October 2010)

4. AUSA Bruce and his office is presently, involved in a Civil action filed by Petitioner against

him (December 30, 2009) and Bruce is bent on retaliation against Petitioner. Petitioner has come

to believe that it is in Bruce's nature and ego to do so and he just can't help himself. (Exhibit D)

August, 20, 2009, Page 22, Lines 21-24.

5. Because Bruce is presently involved in a Civil lawsuit filed by Petitioner against him, in the

interest if justice and to avoid the appearance of impropriety and conflict of interest allegations,

Bruce should not be in any communications with Petitioner for any reason. Bruce should have

been barred by this Court to contact Petitioner and Bruce should have volunteered to recuse

himself from this case. Someone from his office other than Bruce should be sending out

Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256 Filed 10/25/10 Page 3 of 32

correspondences to Petitioner. The government is starting to get it; at least someone else has filed

this motion for Bruce, instead of Bruce.

6. AUSA Bruce has been the initiator and instigator of these communications to Petitioner for

purposes that could cause harm to his liberties. The government has grossly overacted to

Petitioner's Memo to the Court in an attempt to get even with him for standing up for his rights.

7. Petitioner has a First Amendment Constitutional right to redress government to gain relief in

ways that are important to him. Magistrate Schroeder on August 20,2009, (pages 18, Lines 15-

25, Page 19, Lines 1-25, Page 20, Lines 1-25 Page 21, Linesl-24, Page 22 Lines 1-25) addressed

Petitioners right to redress government and chided Bruce for his constant berating of Petitioner.

Page 20, Lines 19-22. (Exhibit D) This conduct by Bruce was briefly tempered then but as one

can see by the multiple letters sent to Petitioner (Exhibit C), even after Bruce being named in a

Civil Suit, (December 30,2009) he cannot help himself but to continue the unrelenting

harassment.

8. Petitioner sent his filed Memorandum only into the Court and did not mail anything to any

other law agency to initiate Bruce's arrest. Petitioner did not file this Memo to intimidate Bruce,

it was for purposes to alert the Court of Bruce's continued illegal activities, contact, conduct and

mailings against Petitioner. The court can do whatever it wants with Petitioner's Memorandum.

If the Court wants to execute the warrant against Bruce, that is its choice, if it does not, it is

within the discretion of the Court to do that as well.

9. Petitioner finds it ironic that the government is allegedly using Title li, Sections 3148 (b),

3143 (a), to cite him. If the government has learned anything from this case, they should have

learned that all of Title ll., H.R. 3190, 3231, 1344, is invalid due to an insufficient vote held on

May 1ih, 1947, where only 44 members of the House of Representatives voted instead of the

required 218 members or more that was necessary to Constitutionally pass such Law. Therefore,

the whole of Title ll. is invalid and its parts and violate the Quorum Clause to the Constitution.

93 Congo Rec. 5048, 93 Congo Rec. 5049 (See Exhibit A) (See: Motion to Dismiss for Lack of

Subject Matter Jurisdiction Petitioner submits Prima Facie Evidence to support Claim -

Quorum issue) (See: Exhibit B)

The court obtained its jurisdiction to hear, prosecute crimes and to sentence pursuant to 18

U.S.C. § 3231. 18 U.S.C. § 3231 is totally interdependent on the validity ofH.R. 3190 and

Public Law 80-772 of the 80th Congress (1947-1948), as it is part of that statute and under the In

Toto rule, if the statute is invalid, its parts are invalid.

10. Petitioner did a quick check into Title ll., Sections 3148 (b), 3143 (a), and there are no Code

of Federal Regulations attached to the statues to give such statutes force and effect. The

Supreme Court has ruled in California Banker's Assoc. v Schultz, 416 US 21, United States

v. Mersky, 361 US 431, Hotch y. United States, 212 F.2d 280,283 declares that, ... "ifthe rule

itself is not published, it follows that it has not been issued; and if a rule has not been

issued, it has no force as law." It is required by law among other things that a law passed by

Congress must appear in the Federal Registry for 30 days in order for the Public to make

comments about it and or redress any grievances they may have about said law to their

government. In addition, the law after passage thereafter becomes codified with supporting

regulations called the Code of Federal Regulations. "Once promulgated, these regulations, called

Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256 Filed 10/25/10 Page 5 of 32

for by the statute itself, have the force of law, and violations thereof incur criminal prosecutions,

just as if all the details had been incorporated into the congressional language." "The result is

that neither the statute nor the regulations are complete without the other, and only

together do they have any force. In effect, therefore, the construction of one necessarily

involves the construction of the other." [Emp. added] 361 US 431 United States Yo:. Mersky,

80 S.Ct. 459, 4 L.Ed.2d 423

Therefore, Title~, Sections 3148 (b), 3143 (a), are invalid and the government is void of its

subject matter jurisdiction under those sections and the entire of Title ~ and connecting sections

et al.

11. In the first place, not only does the government lack jurisdiction to cite him, they also lack

subject matter jurisdiction for all three case(s) 09-CR-121-S, 09-CR-141-S, 08-CR-054-S

against him.

12. Petitioner challenges the government to prove otherwise. "Once jurisdiction is challenged,

the court cannot proceed when it clearly appears that the court lacks jurisdiction, the court has no

authority to reach merits, but, rather, should dismiss the action." Melo v. US, 505 F2d 1026.

"The law provides that once State and Federal jurisdiction has been challenged, it must be

proven." --Main v. Thiboutot, 100 S. Ct. 2502 (1980). "Once jurisdiction is challenged, it must

be proven." --Hagens v. Lavine, 415 U.S. 533.

The Court in the Merlo, supra, case above stated "Once jurisdiction is challenged, the

court cannot proceed when it clearly appears that the court lacks jurisdiction, the court has no

authority to reach merits, but, rather, should dismiss the action." Melo v. US, 505 F2d 1026.

Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256 Filed 10/25/10 Page 6 of 32

Petitioner has made a prima facie showing of an evidentiary fact within this motion and

demonstrated by the enclosed Exhibit A that the government and this Court lack subject matter

jurisdiction in these case(s) and authority to sentence Petitioner. As the Merlo court stated "that

the court lacks jurisdiction" ... "should dismiss the action."

Petitioner challenges the government/court to provide valid certified proof that refutes

Petitioners prima facie claims and shows irrefutable evidence that at least 218 or more members

of the House of Representatives who voted on May 1ih 1947, to legally pass Title lli, Public

Law 80-772, specifically, amended sections H.R. 3190, 3231, 1344, et aI, and did not violate the

Quorum Clause to the Constitution. Petitioner contends that the government and Court will be

unable to supply such proof because that is not what happened that fateful day. The government

by its silence has acquiesced to Petitioners valid claims. We know that silence creates estoppel

by acquiescence. "Silence can also be equated with fraud, where there is a legal duty to speak, or

where an inequity left unanswered would be intentionally misleading." U.S. v Tweel, 550 F.2 nd

297,299 (1977). EFFECT FAILURE TO DENY F.R.Cv.P. RULE 8

13. Petitioner by filing his Memorandum into the Court was actually protecting the conditions of

his bail. The government with the continued prosecution of his case with their 'eyes wide open'

to the lack of subject matter jurisdiction that they have, are actually committing several crimes

against said Petitioner liberties, against the Constitution, and their oaths of office, thusly, for

Petitioner not to notice the Court about the governments continued illegal actions, Petitioner

could be guilty of Misprision of Felony for not reporting crimes being committed that he

witnessed and knew were going on.

Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256 Filed 10/25/10 Page 7 of 32

14. Petitioner in not a danger to society or to the community. He is only pursuing his

Constitutional protections afforded him to stop government from intimidating, harassing him,

overreaching and encroaching upon his liberties. The Courts have been solid where the

government attempts to punish someone for implementing their Constitutional protections. The

government wants to strip Petitioner of his liberties and incarcerate him now, while he is

pursuing relief and remedies Constitutionally afforded him and start his alleged sentence before

his appointed date. The Courts have stated: "Imposition of a harsher penalty for assertion of

constitutional or statutory rights is a denial of equal protection of the laws and due process

of law because the sentence imposes an unconstitutional condition on the exercise of those

rights." "The fact that a sentence is within the bounds of the punishment prescribed by the

legislature is irrelevant if in fact it is harsher than that of others similarly situated and was

motivated by a desire to punish the accused for assertion of, or to discourage future assertions of,

constitutional rights." United States v. Wiley (7th Cir 1960) 278 F2d 500. See also Van Alstyne,

In Gideon's Wake: Harsher Penalties and the "Successful" Criminal Appellant, 74 Yale LJ 606

(1965). This bedrock concept of equal protection of the laws under the 14th Amendment to the

United States Constitution was established in Yick Wo '!!:,.Hopkins (1886) 118 US 356, 373-374:

"Though the law itself be fair on its face and impartial in appearance, yet, if it is applied and

administered by public authority with an evil eye and an unequal hand ... the denial of equal

justice is still within the prohibition of the Constitution." Law enforcement authorities in

Louisiana were reminded of this fact only last year. Cox v Louisiana (1965) 379 US 536. See

Harris (1960) 182 CA2d Supp 837, 5 CR 852.

15. Petitioner would request that all of Bruce's activities against him to cease and desist.

16. Petitioner moves the Court to have the government prove that it has subject matter

jurisdiction over him in his three case(s) by showing forth the production of certified

documentation that Title.lli, Public Law 80-772 was passed Constitutionally on May lih, 1947

with a Constitutionally held Quorum vote of at least 218 members of the House of

Representatives, and that it did not violate the Quorum Clause to the Constitution.

17. Should government fail to provide such proof, Petitioner hereby motions this Court to

dismiss all three said actions 1:09-CROOI21-001, 1:09-CROOI41-001, 1:08-CR-054-001 against

him with prejudice.

(Answer requested within 7 days because of Sentencing Factors)

WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests dismissal of government's motion for revocation of bail as

without merit in that the citations against him is an overreaction and continues the pattern of

harassment and intimidation against him. (Exhibit C) Petitioner has a First Amendment

Constitutional right to redress government to gain relief in ways that are important to him.

(Exhibit D) The Government is without subject matter jurisdiction even in the pursuing of these

citations. Petitioner was reporting his Constitutional duty to report crimes of Misprision of

Felony. It is a criminal offense for the government to bring a charge, citations or indictment(s)

against someone without a valid law. Title .lli, Public Law 80-772, H.R. 3190, 3231, 1344 and all

connecting sections listed above are invalid because it was voted upon without a Constitutional

seated Quorum. No Quorum, no Law. Additionally, there are no regulations in the sections

that the government cited Petitioner on, further invalidating said alleged Law. Additionally,

Petitioner moves the government to provide for the production of the CFR regulations for Title

18., Public Law 80-772, H.R.3190, 3231, 1344. Petitioner also moves the Court to have the
government prove that it has subject matter jurisdiction over him in his three case(s) by showing

forth the production of certified documentation that Title 18., Public Law 80-772 was passed

Constitutionally on May 1ih, 1947 with a Constitutionally held Quorum vote of at least 218

members of the House of Representatives, and that it did not violate the Quorum Clause to the

Constitution. Petitioner has submitted in Exhibit A, enclosed, the actual vote of 38 to §. that took

place which was far insufficient of the Quorum requirement of the Constitution. Petitioner also

moves the Court to have the government provide the CFR regulations to Title 18., Sections 3148

(b), 3143 (a), to show forth their Constitutional validity and force and effect. Petitioner hereby

moves Court to have the government prove that they do have the CFR regulations to the cited

sections Title 18., Sections 3148 (b), 3143 (a), by showing forth the production ofthe regulations.

Petitioner also has researched his two plea deals and the cited statutes in those cases are absent

and void the CFR regulations that give those statutes force and effect. Incidentally, in the

passport case, in Petitioner's plea and Sentencing report, it was admitted by the government that

there are no penalties. How do you get an indictment void of the penalties? Easy, when there is

no valid Law or CFR regulations and the system is corrupted. The Court is obligated to protect

Petitioner's Constitutional rights and should even on its own motion, dismiss this case. Petitioner

hereby moves the Court to have the government prove and provide the production and evidence

of the CFR regulations to his two pleas deals. If they do not and cannot provide such evidence,

these two plea 09-CR-141-S, 08-CR-054-S agreements are also further 'void' for a lack of

subject matter jurisdiction. Therefore, for all the reasons listed above hereto, government's

motion should be denied as without merit and that they should prove that they have subject

matter jurisdiction over said Petitioner as described above for Title .lli, Sections 3148 (b), 3143

(a), and for all three case(s) against him, 09-CR-121-S, 09-CR-141-S, 08-CR-054-S, and for all

the reasons stated above. The Court should rule that absent the government being able to provide

the requested documentation that Petitioner has asserted for all three indictments, 09-CR-121-S,

09-CR-141-S, 08-CR-054-S, the Court should dismiss all three indictment(s) against Petitioner,

with prejudice.

Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256 Filed 10/25/10 Page 21 of 32

Buczek, (hereafter Petitioner), moves and motions this Court for dismissal for all three cases 09-

CR-121-S, 09-CR-141-S, OS-CR-054-S, due to a lack of subject matter jurisdiction. Petitioner

will presently give forth prima facie evidence of an evidentiary fact, wherein documents (See

Exhibit A) enclosed will show conclusively that the House of Representatives vote taken on May

12lh, 1947 was 38 to §" which caused said vote to be Constitutionally deficient, invalid and illegal

to satisry the Quorum Clause to the Constitution. On May 12th, 1947 to pass Constitutionally

Title 18, Public Law 80-772, specifically H.R. 3190 and its connecting sections, 323] et aI, a

vote to Constitutionally pass such amendment required at least 218 ayes votes to validate such

law' and not violate the Quorum Clause to the Constitution. Petitioner declares such vote was

ayes 38, noes §, as Exhibit A shows. This unconstitutional act violated Article 1, Section 5,

Clause 1; Article I, Section 7, Clause 2, and/or Article I, Section 7, Clause 3 - and any of which

rendered Title ~, H.R. 3190, 3231 et al sections Public Law 80-772 unconstitutional and l'oid ab

initio. Petitioner requests the court to take mandatory judicial notice under Federal Rules of

Evidence 201 (e) (f), of93 Congo Rec. 5048, 93 Congo Rec. 5049. Exhibit A

The court obtained its jurisdiction to hear, prosecute crimes and to sentence pursuant to

18 USc. § 3231. 18 U.S.c. § 3231 is totally interdependent on the validity ofH.R. 3190 and

Public Law 80-772 of the 80 th Congress (1947-1948), as it is part of that statute and under the III

Toto rule, if the statute is invalid, its parts are invalid.

First, the court is governed by the rule of Stare Decisis, assuming it is a Constitutional

court, and if it is not a Constitutional court, Petitioner requests the court to so advise

*Failure to answer is silence. Silence can only be Gquated with fraud where there is illegal
and moral duty to smrak. or when inquiry left unanswered would be intentionally

Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256 Filed 10/25/10 Page 22 of 32

Petitioner. Under the rule of stare decisis, district court cases have no precedent value, and cases

cited from other District courts carry no weight, other than advisory, in this district. Also

under the rule of Stare Decisis, the Constitution is the contract between the government and its

citizens. Therefore, the constitution always prevails. Since the issue addressed has never been

adjudicated, i.e., whether a Constitutional seated Quorum was in place to transact business on

May 12, 1947 when the House voted on Public Law 80-772, then the Constitution must prevail.

Article I, Section 5, Clause l. The plain language of the Constitution trumps any other

possibility.

Second, after the Constitution, and its plain language, comes the Supreme Court. The

Supreme Court in United States v. Ballin, 144 U.S. 1 (1892), which has never been overturned

has already determined that without a proper quorum to do business, no valid bill can be passed.

No Quorum, no Law.

Petitioner Takes Judicial Notice of the Fair Warning Doctrine

Petitioner requests the court to take mandatory judicial notice under Federal Rules of

Evidence 201 (e) (f), of the Fair Warning Doctrine and Supporting case law, which establishes

that neither the Bureau of Prisons nor any federal court can claim jurisdiction pursuant to the

prior Title 18 statute passed in 1909.

The same day President Truman signed into law Public Law 80-773 enacting into

positive law Title 28, United States Code. Act of June 25, 1948, Ch. 646, § 1,62 Stat. 869, the

President signed an act positively repealing the fonner criminal jurisdiction granted to the district

courts. id., ~ 39 et seq., 62 Stat. 991 et seq. (positive repeal listing former 28 U.S.c. § 4], ~ 2 in

*Failure to answer is silence. Silence can only be equated with fraud where there is illegal

schedule of repealed statutes). Therefore, with a repealed prior statute, no jurisdiction is created

for the court.

Fair warning doctrine invokes due process rights and requires that criminal statute at

issue be sufficiently definite to notify persons of reasonable intelligence that their planned

conduct is criminal. United ~ v.. Nevers, 7 F.3d 59 (5 th Cir. 1993). See United States~.

Rei. Clark v. Anderson, 502 F.2d 1080 (3d Cir. 1974) (The notice requirements of Due Process

would not permit a state, after ruling one of its criminal statutes was overly vague, to apply that

statute's superseding predecessor statute in the very case which ruled the successor statute

unconstitutional ).

In United States g. ReI. Clark v. Anderson, 502 F.2d 1080(3d Cir. 1974),502 F.2d 1080, 1081-

1082, the court found that at the time the offense occurred and the accused was indicted, "the

state of Delaware had published and was holding out the new [statute] as its only proscription of

such misconduct as the indictment charged." The crime was also not a crime at common law.

The court ruled the new statute unconstitutional. And by definition, an unconstitutional statute

is one that fails to give fair notice that particular conduct is proscribed by the state. See

United States v. Harris, 1954,347 U.S. 612,617,98 L.Ed. 989,74 S.Ct. 808; Connally v.

General Construction Co., 1926,269 U.S. 385,391, 70 L.Ed. 322,46 S.Ct. 126. Thus, the

state's own interpretation of the new statute and its rejection of that section as a statutory basis

for Clark's prosecution caused the court to hold that the new statute did not provide

constitutionally adequate notice.

*Failure to answer is sjlence. Silence can only be equated witb fraud wbere tbere is illegal
and mQral duty to speak. or wben inquiry left unanswered would be intentiOnally
mjsleading. "US y TWee1(1977)550 F 2d 297.*
Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256 Filed 10/25/10 Page 24 of 32

The Clurk court determined that the defendant's conviction could be upheld only if the

old statute, the supersession of which had been legislatively declared and publicly announced,

could continue to serve as notice of the criminality of defendant's conduct. In order to reach that

conclusion the court decided that one would have to reason, first that the new statute on its face

gave adequate notice of its own invalidity, and second, that the public, thus informed, was then

put on further notice that the officially announced statutory repeal or supersession of the old

statute was legally ineffective. Id.

The court concluded that such reasoning was "too tortured and too far removed" from

reality to satisfy the due process requirement that, at the time of the alleged offense, the accused

shall have been on notice that his conduct was proscribed by the criminal law. The court could

not even surmount the first hurdle that the new statute could serve as notice of its own invalidIty.

Without that notice, no occasion was available to consider the old statute as possibly relevant.

As in the Clark case, and its Supreme Court precedents, to meet Due Process, Public Law

80-772 and 18 U.s. c. § 3231 would have had to give adequate public notice on their faces of

their own invalidity and the public would have to have been put on further notice that the

officially announced statutory repeal or supersession of the old statutes was legally effective.

The court cannot even reach the first hurdle, much less the second one. The court obtained its

Jurisdiction to prosecute crimes pursuant to 18 U.S.c. § 3231. Without proper notice of the

Invalidity of the statute, defendant's indictment and conviction can not be upheld and the coun

has only one choice, to order dismissal of defendant's indictment and conviction ab initio.

5 of 13
*Failure to answer is silence. Silence can only be equated with fraud where there is illegal
and moral duty to speak, or when inquiry left unanswered would be intentionally
misleading. "US y Twesl (1977)550 F 2d 297.*
Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256 Filed 10/25/10 Page 25 of 32

According to standing precedent, this court had absolutely no jurisdiction to prosecute

Defendant under either 18 U.S.c. § 3231 or the prior enactment in 1940.

LACK OF JURISDICTION

"Federal courts are courts of limited jurisdiction ... Jurisdiction of the lower federal courts is

further limited to those subjects encompassed within a statutory grant of jurisdiction:'

Insurance Corp. of Ireland Ltd. v. Compagnie des Bauxite de Guinea, 456 U.S. 694,701

(1982); Kline v. Burke Constr. Co., 260 U.S. 226,234 (1922) (all lower federal courts "derive

[) [their] jurisdiction wholly from the authority of Congress"); United States v. Hudson &

Goodwin, 11 U.S. 32,33 (1812) (federal courts "possess no jurisdiction but what is given to

them by the power that creates them."). United States v. Ball, 98 U.S. 343,345 (1879) (federal

"courts possess no jurisdiction over crimes and offenses ... except what is given to them by the

power that created them"); Hudson & Goodwin, II U.S. at 33-34. See also, e.g., United States

v. Wiltberger, 18 U.S. 76,95-105 (1820) ("the power of punishment is vested in the legislative,

not the judicial department," criminal statutes are to be construed strictly, "probability" cannot

serve to "enlarge a statute" and an offense not clearly within the terms of a statute precludes

federal court jurisdiction). According to standing precedent, this court had absolutely no

jurisdiction to prosecute Defendant under either 18 U.S.c. § 3231 or even the prior enactments.

The predecessors to the District Court (the House members on May I i \ 1947) with their

unconstitutional vote to the have put this Court in the hot seat. The Petitioner did not screw this

vote up. Our Congress and government have. It is not the fault of this Petitioner to invoke his

Constitutional protections against government intrusion and overreach. All Petitioner is asking is

for the relief that is Constitutionally afforded to him. To cover up one injustice with another

always leads to manifest more injustice which entangles all the people in between. Petitioner

demands dismissal and a sealing of all the records of this Court case.

CONCLUSION

WHEREFORE, Petitioner hereby challenges the subject matter jurisdiction of the government

and the Court. Once jurisdiction is challenged by a Petitioner, the burden of proof shifts to the

government/Court to prove that they have it. "Jurisdiction, once challenged, is to be proven, not

by the court, but by the party attempting to assert jurisdiction. The burden of proof of jurisdiction

1ies with the asserter." See McNutt v. GMAC, 298 US 178. The origins of this doctrine of la\'I.·

may be found in Maxfield's Lessee v. ~, 4 US 308. "A court has no jurisdiction to determine

its own jurisdiction, for a basic issue in any case before a tribunal is its power to act, and a court

must have the authority to decide that question in the first instance." "Once jurisdiction is

challenged, the court cannot proceed when it clearly appears that the court lacks jurisdiction, the

court has no authority to reach merits, but, rather, should dismiss the action." Melo v. US, 505

F2d 1026. "The law provides that once State and Federal jurisdiction has been challenged, it

must be proven." --Main v. Thiboutot, 100 S. Ct. 2502 (1980). "Once jurisdiction is challenged,

it must be proven." --Hagens v. Lavine, 415 U.S. 533.

Petitioner challenges the government/court to provide valid certified proof that refutes

Petitioners prima facie claims and shows irrefutable evidence that at least 218 or more members

of the House of Representatives who voted on May 12th 1947, to legally pass Title 18, Public

unable to supply such proof because that is not what happened. Therefore, Petitioner demands

Re: August 14 Set of Documents


Sent to the Attorney General

Dear Mr. Buczek:

On or about August 14, 2010, you sent the attached documents to the Attorney
General. They were referred to me for my review and for appropriate action.

After reading through these documents, they appear to be frivolous and thus I am
returning them herewith. Two things:

First, at "page 1 of 12," you assert:

Your failure to respond, within 10 days as, stipulated below,


and rebut, with particularity, everything in this letter with which
you disagree is your lawful, legal and binding agreement with
and admission to the fact that everything in this letter is true,
correct, legal, lawful and binding upon you, in any court,
anywhere in America, without your protest or objection or that
of those who represent you. Your silence is your
acquiescence. See: Connally v. General Construction Co.,
269 U.S. 385, 391. Notification of legal responsibility is "the
first essential of due process law." Also, see: U.S. v. Tweel,
550 F. 2d. 297. "Silence can only be equated with fraud
where there is a legal or moral duty to speak or where an
inquiry left unanswered would be intentionally misleading."

You have repeatedly asserted this in your innumerable filings. Please note that is not a
correct legal premise and, on behalf of this office, Main Justice, and any other components
of the Department of Justice, we categorically reject this premise as to all of your filings,
past, present and future.
Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256-1 Filed 10/25/10 Page 7 of 39

Second, please do not send any further correspondence, documents or any other
matters to any Department of Justice component. They will f!.1l ultimately be forwarded to
me and I will most likely return them to you.

Very truly yours,

WILLIAM J. HOCHUL, JR.

Dear Mr. Buczek:

On July 27, the Court entered the following Decisions and Orders in the referenced
cases:

09-CR-121-S

Docket No. 22 - Decision and Order ("0&0") denying your "Petition for Work
Release;"

Docket No. 23 - 0&0 denying the motions you previously filed and docketed as
Nos. 11, 12, 14 and 19; and

Docket No. 25 - 0&0 denying your July 17 Motion for an Extension of Time (No.
24).

09-CR-141-S

Docket No. 25 - 0&0 denying your July 17 Motion for an Extension of Time (No.
21);

Docket No. 26 - 0&0 denying the motions you previously filed and docketed as
Nos. 11,12, 13 , 19 and 20; and

Docket No. 27 Decision and Order ("0&0") denying your "Petition for Work
Release."
Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256-1 Filed 10/25/10 Page 13 of 39

Copies of each of these six (6) documents are enclosed.

As I said in my July 27 letter to you, the next step is your trial. With the entry of the
D&Os cited above and enclosed, the same is now true in both of these cases, so once
more, I urge you to retain counsel. To reiterate, your continued freedom is at stake, and,
as I said in a previous letter to you, it appears to me that you have no clue about how to
try a case. Conversely, I have been a prosecutor for 30 years and know that, if we go to
trial, I can get all my evidence against you into evidence. And I feel confident that I can
persuade the jury to return "guilty" verdicts against you in all three (3) cases.

RE: United States v. Shane C. Buczek


08-CR-54-S

Dear Mr. Buczek:

On Friday, July 24, 2009, United States Magistrate Judge


Schroeder filed four Decisions and Orders (Docket Nos. 126, 127,
128 and 132) and a Report, Recommendation and Order (Docket No.
134) in effect denying all of your (and Mr. Altman's) pretrial
motions in which you (or Mr. Altman) asked for any type of
"substantive" relief.

In addition, Magistrate Judge Schroeder filed an Order denying


your motion for an extension of time (Docket No. 130) and denied
your "Petition for Work Release" (Docket No. 129).

Copies of each of the above-numbered documents are enclosed.

Now let me be blunt. You have tried to bring all of your


views to the Court in your efforts to have the Court dismiss this
indictment (08-CR-54-S) and as the Court's July 24, 2009 filings
indicated, your efforts have failed completely. You now have to
face the allegations of the indictment in a trial. Thus, if there
were ever a time to retain the services of an attorney, it is now.

Shortly, Judge Skretny will set this case for a "status


conference" and at the court appearance it is likely he will set a
trial date. In short, your continued freedom is at issue, and it
appears to me that your efforts to represent yourself, at least up

until now, have not worked. Things just might improve if you were
represented, and to this end, I suggest that you show up at the
anticipated status conference with counsel.

Dear Mr. Buczek:

At my request, HSBG printed out all of the "screenshots" showing activity on your
Best Buy/HSBG account and prepared a very short recap of your account. I intend to use
both of these against you at your trial (See Fed. R. Grim. P. 12(b)(4)(A)). They are
provided as a part of our discovery obligations (See Fed. R. Grim. P. 16(a)(1)(E)).

Also served herewith are our responses to your pretrial filings in the two referenced
cases.

Once more, do not respond to this letter as to do so would likely be a violation of a


condition of your release.

Also, filing the letter as part of a pleading is an act that is without effect. Thus, doing
so is nothing more than a waste of time and postage. But feel free to file it if you think it's
necessary.

Very truly yours,

OB-CR-54-S

Dear Mr. Buczek:

Recently you made filings with voluminous attachments in this case which the
Clerk's office sealed, apparently at your request. (See attached docket sheet excerpt,
items 109, 114 and 115).

Because of the voluminous nature of these attachments, the Clerk's Office will
neither scan them or send copies to me. Because I should at least look at them before i
respond to your motions, would you please make copies of these attachments and send
them to me. Note that I do not need copies of the motions themselves.

Please don't do more than send these copies by regular mail. Return receipts,
certified mail, and all that other malarkey is unnecessary and puts you to an unnecessary
expense.

And do not respond to this letter except as requested above as to do would be in


violation of a condition of your release.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Very truly yours,

Dear Mr. Buczek:

I have your letter (drafted March 18,2009) and, on behalf of the United States (and
each department and agency thereof, inasmuch as the United States Attorney's Office is
charged with representing them), this is the response.

At page 2, you state:

You also agree that if a response that addresses each element


is not provided within the 30 days, you agree that the original
claim in this matter cannot be certified and thus agree to ledger
a zero ($0 no) b8!Rf1C~ (In this ?,':::CU!"1t 3::d 3.~;~~ th~t th:s
case is settled and closed.

By this letter, this office and the United States Treasury (which this office represents)
hereby declines to agree with, and in fact out rejects, each and every point of your letter.

In your letter you make reference to "Corporate Trust Account known as Shane
Christopher Buczek with account number 131685635." Two points:

1. Neither you nor anyone else has such an account; and


Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256-1 Filed 10/25/10 Page 20 of 39

2. Should you attempt to write checks, drafts, make withdrawals from this fictitious
account, or otherwise "access it" such would be an act of fraud subjecting you to possible
further prosecution. And this letter will evidence the fact that you are on notice that such
acts constitute fraud

RE: United States v. Shane Buczek

Dear Mr. Buczek:

On April 21/ 2009/ the May 2007 Grand Jury filed an indictment
against you charging you with bank fraud and with committing the bank
fraud offense while you were on bail in the passport fraud case. A
copy of that indictment is enclosed/ and you will be arraigned on
Wednesday, May 6. Once more I urge you to obtain an attorney to
represent you in connection with this new indictment.

With respect to your April 15/ 2009 letter/ the language "must.
show cause why a contempt ** charge should not issue against him/her in
his/her True Character/ or suffer the consequences of said action/ or
lack of action" borders on being a threat against me. If you choose to
use this or similar language in the future/ you are on noti.ce that you
risk being charged.

Also/ I have enclosed copies of Sections 3 and 4 of the 14th


Amendment and I strongly suggest you read them more closely. Neither
section sa.ys what you claim (in your April 15 letter) it says.

The balance of your letter is gibberish.

27 CFR 72.11

Dear Mr. Buczek:

At any number of court appearances, you have touted 27 CFR


72.11 as somehow making "all crimes commercial."

I have enclosed a copy of 27 CFR 72.11. You will note that it


defines commercial crimes as follows:

Any of the following types of crimes (Federal


or State): Offenses against the revenue laws;
burglary; counterfeiting; forgery; kidnaping;
larceny; robbery; illegal sale or possession
of deadly weapons; prostitution (including
soliciting, procuring, pandering, white
cl&vi~g, keeping house of ill fame; and like
offenses); extortion; swindling and confidence
games; and attempting to commit, conspiring to
commit, or compounding any of the foregoing
crimes. Addiction to narcotic drugs and use
of marihuana will be treated as if such were
commercial crimes.

You continue to assert that since all crimes are made commercial by
this CFR, you are entitled to "settlement and closure of your
account," which will in essence end the case against you.
Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256-1 Filed 10/25/10 Page 24 of 39

Even if the "commercial crimes" could be made to go away by


"settlement and closure," your indictment charges you with
violations of 18 U.S.C. §§ 1001(a) (2), 1542 and 1028(a) (4). None
of these crimes are listed in 27 CFR 72.11. Thus, this section
that you continue to cite, even under its broadest reading, has
nothing to do with your case.

Given what the regulations does not say, I once more point out
that your options are (1) plead guilty, or (2) go to trial.

IRS Forms 56

Dear Mr. Buczek:

I have received copies of IRS Forms 56 naming both (former)


United States Attorney Terrance P. Flynn and me as acting as
fiduciaries on your behalf.

Be advised that neither Mr. Flynn nor I ever have been, are,
or will every be or act as fiduciaries for you, and that any
further attempts by you to name Mr. Flynn, me, or any other federal
official as your fiduciary could subject you to prosecution for
doing so.

In reading through a few of the many documents you have


created and then filed, it occurs to me that you use legal terms
without any real idea as to what they mean. Put another way, they
sound good, so you use them. A "fiduciary" is a person in whom you
would have "special contidence" and "who would be bound in equity
and good conscience to act in good faith with regard to" your
interests. I am the individual prosecutor, and this office is the
"prosecutors office" with the responsibility for prosecuting you.
And if we are successful, you could be fined and sent to prison and
lose some of your rights as a citizen (e.g., to vote). Thus, this
office and I am acting directly against your interests so, by
definition, neither anyone in this office nor this office as an
institution can act as a "fiduciary" for you. Moreover, just about
everything you do appears to be an effort by you to "confront" one
or more government agencies with your views. This, in turn, puts
you and whatever agency or agencies you try to "confront" in
adversarial positions. However, your "adversary" can never act as
Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256-1 Filed 10/25/10 Page 26 of 39

your "fiduciary," no matter how hard you try to make the agency or
the agency head your fiduciary, and no matter how many reams of
paper you send out saying these people/agencies are your
fiduciaries. In several of your voluminous papers, I have seen
references to the "Paperwork Reduction Act." Try applying that
statute to yourself.

Derby, New York 14047

RE: United States v. Shane Buczek, 08-CR-54-S

Dear Mr. Buczek:

I have your April I, 2009 letter, and it leads me to believe


that both you and your son are mixing several concepts.

First, were your son a minor, you might have an argument that
you can "represent" him, although not in the sense that an attorney
can. But he is not a minor, so you cannot represent him.

Second, the examination (and related observations) your son is


undergoing is not being done to determine if he is competent or
incompetent in the sense of sanity versus insanity. Rather, it is
being done for two limited purposes: ( 1) to determine if he is
competent to stand trial, i.e., does he understand the nature and
possible consequences of the charges and is he able to assist in
his defense (either through an attorney or by proceeding pro se);
and (2) to determine if (even if he is found "competent" under the
first test) he is competent enough to represent himself. However,
if Shane is found "incompetent" under the first test, the court
must visit the issue of his competency in the larger sanity versus
insanity context.

Third, I fully respect Shane's "right" to proceed pro se.


Moreover, while it is my duty to "prosecute vigorously" those who,
in the view of this office and the grand jury have committed
crimes, it is also my duty "to do justice." In this vein, I view
Shane's idea of and persistence in representing himself as a way
for him "to do injustice" to himself. Put another way, and I think
that deep in your psyche you know this, the legal gobbledygook
Shane persists in filing will not affect the ultimate outcome of
the case. Shane probably has the "right" to shoot himself in the
foot, but I think you will agree that exercising that "right H would
not be in his best interest. The same is true in the case against
him.

Daniel Buczek
Page Two
April 7, 2009

Civil Rule 17(c) has nothing to do with this case for two
reasons. First, this is a criminal case; and second, even if it
did apply and at some point Shane is indeed judged "incompetent,"
the Court must appoint a guardian ad litem for him if he is not
represented by counsel. You cannot simply "appoint" yourself as
his representative.

In this vein, I remain ready to meet and talk with you about
a resolution of the case with the understanding that you are an
intermediary between this office and Shane and nothing more.

Re: United States v. Shane C. Buczek


08-CR-54-S

Dear Mr. Buczek:

In the interest of moving this case along, and in conformity with Rules 12(b)(4)(A)
and 16(a) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, I am enclosing two CDs.

The first, labeled "Passport Clips," contains two excerpts from the Alex Jones Radio
Show in which you are recorded talking about making application for a passport (i.e.,
submitting the passport application that the indictment accuses you of lying on) and then
about crossing the Peace Bridge on February 3, 2008 using the passport you asserted on
the passport application at issue in this case was "lost at sea." You are hereby notified
that, pursuant to Rule 12(b)(4)(A), the government intends to use both of these clips
against you at trial.

The second CD, entitled "Shane C. Buczek Discovery" (etc.) contains copies of all
pertinent court documents, as well as copies of all the evidence seized from your parent's
home when it was searched on March 6. Again, and pursuant to Rule 12(b)(4)(A), this
letter is to put you on notice that we intend to use any and all of the documents seized from
your parents' home against you at trial. .

Further (and again pursuant to Rule (b )(4 )(A» in your "Indictment on Counter Claim"
which you filed on March 24, 2008, you made several further statements that the
government intends to use against you at trial. At IX on page 2, you, in essence admit to
making the December 20, 2006 passport application. At "X" on page 3 you make a further
admission about your "lost at sea" passport, At "XI" you, in essence admit that your
"Apostille card" was in your car when it was searched in February 3, 2006. At "XVII" you
Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256-1 Filed 10/25/10 Page 30 of 39

once more admit to the possession of your Apostille. At "IV," you once more make
admissions about your "lost at sea" passport. Then, at page 14, you state "I have personal
knowledge of the facts in this matter."

Re: United States v. Shane Buczek


08-CR-S4-S

Dear Mr. Buczek:

Your "Objections to Proceedings, No Ratification of Commencement Petition for Writ


of Habeas Corpus, Petition to Dismiss with Prejudice" is returned herewith.

The only persons who may represent your son, Shane Buczek are (1) Shane,
himself (pro se), or (2) an attorney admitted to practice in the United States District Court
for the Western District of New York.

Further, your filing of this document (and any further actions of a legal nature you
may take on behalf of your son) border on the unlawful practice of law, in violation of
Section 485 of the New York Judiciary law, a misdemeanor, and if you continue
"representing" your son, I will have no choice but to refer your actions to the District
Attorney's Office for possible prosecution. Thus, you are warned and cannot take refuge
in any claim that you did not know that in representing your son, you actions amounted to
and were a crime.

Please note that, as I have said to both you and your son, this matter is not going
to go away by any means other than through a plea of guilty by Shane, or through a trial
on the merits. Moreover, I intend to present the Best Buy facts to the grand jury and to ask
the grand jury to charge Shane with bank fraud with respect to has actions vis a vis Best
Buy and HSBC.
Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256-1 Filed 10/25/10 Page 32 of 39

My strong suggestions (and it echoes Magistrate Judge Schroeder's suggestion) is


that Shane retain the services of an attorney who practices in federal court to represent
him. The fact that this will cost him or you and you don't want to pay is, to borrow an old
saying, being penny wise and pound foolish. And not having an attorney will only work to
Shane's detriment.

1 incorrect, I'm sure the Court would be more familiar with it than

2 I am, as would Mr. Kawski, but in reviewing the record, I did not

3 see that.

4 The other conditions all fall in reference to the direct

5 orders that were made by the Court. Count 1, you know, dealing

6 with his attempt to file these liens; you know, the second one,

7 again, dealing with 401.3; the third one being the attempted

8 threat or attempted intimidation, which I prefer to phrase it as

9 opposed to actual intimidation; the filing is Count 4; 5 is the

10 subject should not communicate with any government agency unless

11 filed through the District Court's Clerk's Office -- this was not

12 filed through the District Court's Clerk's Office; and 6, the

13 nature of his home confinement, which in this instance does not

14 fall within the purview of the order.

15 MAGISTRATE JUDGE SCHROEDER: But all of those were in the

16 context of involving the three indictments. I had no authority

17 I don't think any -- I don't think a district judge would have

18 authority to oin a citizen of the United States from seeking

19 redress from any branch of government so long as it's done in a

20 or a lawful or to communicate with

21 representatives of his government about problems he is having with

22 his taxes or with his personal life.

23 MR. BURGASSER: But the Court i~ a very restrained way

24 MAGISTRATE JUDGE SCHROEDER: My orders were all in the

25 context of filings as they related to the three indictments.


Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256-1 Filed 10/25/10 Page 35 of 39

19

1 MR. BURGASSER: But the Court in a very restrained way

2 told him how he needed to contact government agencies, and the

3 fact it had to be reviewed by Pretrial Services and that it had to

4 be filed through the District Court's Clerk's Office.

5 MAGISTRATE JUDGE SCHROEDER: But he did, and then he

6 contacted the Clerk's Office, and the Clerk's Office said you

7 better clear that th Judge Schroeder's chambers, and then he

8 called my chambers.

9 He went through that process, and now the Government's

10 saying he should never have done that.

11 MR. BURGASSER: He did not file with the District Court's

12 Clerk's Office and he did not contact Mr. Kawski.

13 MAGISTRATE JUDGE SCHROEDER: No, I said he I'm going

14 to to that one because that's another burr that is under the

15 saddle for the moment.

16 He contacted Jean Marie McCarthy in the Clerk's Office,

17 he called her about what he could do with some of these documents.

18 She told him she could not give him an answer, that he should

19 contact my chambers. He contacted my chambers and talked to my

20 deputy clerk.

21 The message was conveyed to me that Mr. Buczek had

22 requested permission to file certain documents involving his taxes

23 with the Department of the Treasury, and also some documents

24 regarding something I thought it was something to do with

25 business affairs, Department of Commerce.


Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256-1 Filed 10/25/10 Page 36 of 39

1 I said as far as I'm concerned, he's a citizen of the

2 United States, he has First Amendment rights, if that's what it

3 relates to, he has every right to do that. It has nothing to do

4 with the three indictments.

5 Now, admittedly, as I myself pointed out at the last

6 appearance, some of those documents seem to not be in the format

7 or in the subject matter as I thought they were going to be when I

8 gave that permission; they do seem to reflect or have some bearing

9 or some relationship to the three indictments, and so perhaps in

10 that context Mr. Buczek did cross the line.

11 But other than that, I never said he couldn't contact

12 anybody in the Clerk's Office or that he couldn't contact a

13 government agency about issues that were in no way related to the

14 three indictments. I don't think I had the power to do that, so

15 long as he was doing it in a lawful manner.

16 MR. BURGASSER: Your Honor, not to, you know, redress

17 actually what you said as far as whether you had the power to or

18 not, but on page 3 of 4 --

19 MAGISTRATE JUDGE SCHROEDER: Well of


,
--------~~~=
20 essentiall the Constitution of the United States guarantees

21 citizens the right to redress their government, as well as the

22 r ss their views under the First Amendment.

23 MR. BURGASSER: And I believe that's why in the amended

24 court order setting conditions of release, which is Exhibit C,

25 double C, it actually did say the defendant not have any


Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256-1 Filed 10/25/10 Page 37 of 39

21

1 communication in any form with any government agencies.

2 MAGISTRATE JUDGE SCHROEDER: In the context of these

3 three indictments. Mr. Bruce was all upset about how he was

4 communicating terrible things as it related to the three

5 indictments.

6 MR. BURGASSER: But also when we go to the order adding a

7 condition of release, again, I didn't think the Court was being

8 very fair both to the Government, as well as to Shane, by setting

9 up a way that he could contact even the Internal Revenue Service

10 or the Treasury Department, but it had to do with a specific

11 format.

12 And in one sense if there was going to be a telephone

13 call or some other form of contact, there needed to be one day

14 notice; if it's going to be something written or something that

15 was going to be filed or mailed to them, there was supposed to be

16 two day notice so it could be reviewed by Pretrial. If Pretrial

17 agreed with it, it could go; if not, it could be brought to the

18 Court and the Court would make a ruling on it.

19 And, obviously, that didn't occur in this case.

20 MAGISTRATE JUDGE SCHROEDER: All right. Now, let me

21 address the other issue with respect to Pretrial Services. I,

22 quite frankly, am -- I won't even say somewhat. I, quite frankly,

23 am disturbed about the this whole ted.

24 We have a simple alleged bail violation. If Mr. Bruce

25 really was concerned about the bail violation, as we do in


Case 1:09-cr-00121-WMS-HKS Document 256-1 Filed 10/25/10 Page 38 of 39

22

1 practically all cases, the Government merely needs to file a

2 motion with an affidavit saying we believe that the defendant is

3 in violation of terms and conditions of bail and we're moving to

4 have his bail revoked.

5 I have some real serious problems with Mr. Bruce

6 unilaterally communicating with the Pretrial Services Unit of the

7 United States Probation Office, which is there to serve the Court,

8 not the U.S. Attorney's Office, having these conversations.

9 And I'm not sure what it is Mr. Bruce told Mr. Kawski,

10 but I will say to you in all candor that I am of the opinion that

11 Mr. Bruce may have even mislead Mr. Kawski as to the seriousness

12 of this violation or the content of what these documents were that

13 constituted a violation to the point that he got Mr. Kawski to

14 request an arrest warrant.

15 And then Mr. Bruce doesn't go to me, he doesn't go to

16 Judge Skretny, he ends up in front of the chief judge of the

17 district and gets that arrest warrant.

18 In the past, in much more serious cases, including

19 serious drug cases, people have been brought in on a summons when
