    This petition is brought before this court for just cause and crime against me
    and denial of my right to liberty and travel, including Fraud, False imprison,
    Armed Kidnapping, using false and bogus citations 5949, 5960 and 08907 still
    pending in Grand Saline Texas Corporation administrative Court without
    Jurisdiction criminal conversion of true name into a corporate legal person,
    denial of a 7th amendment trial, denying me the right to travel on the public
    road in the State Of Texas. Policy enforcement officer Burns claiming I had to
    have a Drivers license before I can travel on the public the runs through the
    Corp city of Grand Saline of the "the State of Texas" has make two false arrest
    the present one was on may 2nd 2015 he took me to the Sheriffs commercial
    Jail and placed me in prison with out arrest authority or jurisdiction with the
    only jurisdiction of officers of corporations which is not me.
    Policy enforce officer Burns stopped me again on May 2, 20 15 while I was
    traveling on U.S. Highway 80 in Grand Saline and claimed he had two warrants
    for my arrest for failure to appear. I told him he did not have any lawful
    warrants for my arrest he ignored me. I told him and did appear and I had
    witnesses. He put me in irons and took me to jail. I ask him has he look at the
    evidence in the court showing there were no such license in "the State of Texas"
    as a drivers license in "the State of Texas" and the speed signs were for
    commercial drivers hauling people and goods for hire. He ignored that also. It is
    evident that Burns is using his office for highway robbery with the aid of the
    officers of the city court and the city counsel to bring in funds for the city. It is
    also evident no fair trial can be had in the city court. The last thing Burns said
    to me at the jail was that he was going to arrest me every time I come to his
    town for not having a license.
    I could go on with this petition and bore the court telling it something it knows.
    Instead I petition the court to issue this writ and put a permanent restraining
    order on all the agents of the corporate city of Grand Saline, Texas from
    violating my rights and denying due process. Also I petition this court to revoke
    all licenses of all parties that are a -party to this matter and award any other

    Corpus
    Right to Travel
    In order to understand the correct application of the laws frights in question, we
    must define the terms used in connection with this point of law. As will be shown, many
    terms used today do not, in their legal context, mean what we assume they mean, thus
    resulting in the misapplication oflawsjrights in the instant case.
    The term "motor vehicle" means every description of carriage or other contrivance
    propelled or drawn by mechanical power and "used for commercial purposes" on the
    highways in the transportation of passengers, passengers and property, or property or
    cargo.
    The term "used for commercial purposes" means the carriage of persons or property for
    any fare, fee, rate, charge or other consideration, or directly or indirectly in connection
    with any business, or other undertaking intended for profit.
    Unites States Code chapter 18 Section 31
    
    Driver- One employed in conducting a coach, carriage, wagon, or other vehicle, with
    horses, mules, or other animals, or a bicycle, tricycle, or motor car, though not a street
    railroad car.
    Davis v. Petrinovich, 
    112 Ala. 654
    , 
    21 So. 344
    , 36 L. R. A.615; Gen. St. Conn. 1902,
    DRIVER. One employed in conducting a coach, carriage, wagon, or other
    vehicle, with horses, mules, or other animals.
    2. Frequent accidents occur in consequence of the neglect or want of
    skill of drivers of public stage coaches, for which the employers are
    responsible.
    Bouviers law dictionary ( 1856)
    "Highway" includes any state or other public highway, road, street, avenue, alley,
    driveway, parkway or place, under the control of the state or any political subdivision of the
    state, dedicated, appropriated or opened to public travel or other use;(40)
    "Driver" means any person who drives, operates or is in physical control of a commercial
    motor vehicle, or who is required to hold a commercial driver's license;(25)
    chapter 246 section 14-1
    Sec. 14-12f. Provisions inapplicable to certain vehicles. The provisions of sections 14-
    12b, 14-12c, 14-213b and 38a-364 shall not apply to any private passenger motor vehicle
    registered to the federal government or any state or municipality or any such vehicle bearing
    dealer, repairer, manufacturer, transporter, experimental or junk number plates.
    
    CT vehicle code
    i        •
    "A motor vehicle or automobile for hire is a motor vehicle, other than an automobile stage,
    used for the transportation of persons for which remuneration is received."
    International Motor Transit Co. vs. Seattle, 
    251 P. 120
    The term "travel" is a significant term and is defined as:
    "The term 'travel' and 'traveler' are usually construed in their broad and general
    sense ... so as to include all those who rightfully use the highways viatically (when being
    reimbursed for expenses) and who have occasion to pass over them for the purpose of
    business, convenience, or pleasure." [emphasis added]
    25 Am.Jur. (1st) Highways, Sect.427, p. 717.
    "Travel-- To journey or to pass through or over; as a country district, road, etc. To go
    from one place to another, whether on foot, or horseback, or in any conveyance as a train,
    an automobile, carriage, ship, or aircraft; Make ajourney."
    Century Dictionary, p.2034.
    Therefore, the term "travel" or "traveler" refers to one who uses a conveyance to go from
    one place to another, and included all those who use the highways as a matter of Right.
    Notice that in all these definitions the phrase "for hire" never occurs. This term "travel" or
    "traveler" implies, by definition, one who uses the road as a means to move from one place
    to another.
    Therefore, one who uses the road in the ordinary course of life and business for the
    purpose of travel and transportation is a traveler.
    Clearly shown, driving and traveling are two different things as well as the difference
    between a regular vehicle and one noted as a motor vehicle as one involves commercial use
    for private gain and the other does not. Many users of the public roads use it for their place
    of private gain. Such fields as taxi drivers, tow truck drivers, and many other transportation
    services that lawfully must register and insure their motor vehicle as well as obtain a drivers
    license.
    "Where a term has two meanings differing in the degree merely, it is to be understood in
    the larger sense wherever it occurs unless it appears to have been used in the narrower
    sense, by some form of direct expression, or from the context, the nature of the subject
    matter, or the res gestae."
    Miller v. Miller (1867) 
    33 Cal. 353
    , 355.
    "A state cannot impose restrictions on the acceptance of a license that will deprive the
    licensee of his constitutional rights".

    144 A.L.R. 839

    Since we understand the definitions from above, it is important to get into some cited
    court cases on traveling and/ or other rights:
    ·CONNECTICUT COURT CASE:
    The constitutional right to travel from one State to another ... occupies a position
    fundamental to the concept of our Federal Union. It is a right that has been firmly
    established and repeatedly recognized .
    . . . [T]he right finds no explicit mention in the Constitution. The reason, it has been
    suggested, is [p631] that a right so elementary was conceived from the beginning to be a
    necessary concomitant of the stronger Union the Constitution created. In any event,
    freedom to travel throughout the United States has long been recognized as a basic right
    under the Constitution.
    Thus, the purpose of deterring the in-migration of indigents cannot serve as justification
    for the classification created by the one-year waiting period, since that purpose is
    constitutionally impermissible. If a law has
    no other purpose ... than to chill the assertion of constitutional rights by penalizing those
    who choose to exercise them, then it [is] patently unconstitutional.

    (1970)
    "The people shall have the right freely to assemble together, to consult for the common
    good, to instruct their representatives, and to petition the legislature for the redress of
    grievances"
    Constitution of the State of California, Article 1, Section 10
    "The right of the citizen to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property
    thereon, either by carriage or by automobile, is not a mere privilege which a city may
    prohibit or permit at will, but a common law right which he has under the right to life,
    liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
    Thompson v. Smith, 
    154 S.E. 579
    . United States Supreme Court
    To further reinforce the rights vs. privilege argument, there is also this case which ruled
    that a "right" cannot be converted to a "privilege":
    "No State may convert a Right into a Privilege and require a License of Fee for the exercise
    of the Right" Murdock v. Pennsylvania, 
    373 U.S. 262
    United States Supreme Court
    "If a State does erroneously require a License or Fee for exercise of that Right, the Citizen
    may Ignore the License and or Fee and exercise the Right with Total Impunity. See
    Schuttlesworth v. Birmingham 373 U.S 262."
    United States Supreme Court
    "The use of the highway for the purpose of travel and transportation is not a mere
    privilege, but a common fundamental right of which the public and individuals cannot
    rightfully be deprived."

    IKent v. Dulles, 
    357 U.S. 116
    , 125.
    "Heretofore the court has held, and we think correctly, that while a Citizen has the Right
    to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, that Right does
    not extend to the use of the highways, either in whole or in part, as a place of business for
    private gain."
    Barney'vs. Board of Railroad Commissioners, 
    17 P.2d 82
    ; Willis vs. Buck, 263 P.l 982.
    "The right of the citizen to travel upon the highway and to transport his property thereon,
    in the ordinary course of life and business, differs radically and obviously from that of one
    who makes the highway his place of business for private gain in the running of a
    stagecoach or omnibus."
    State vs. City of Spokane, 
    186 P. 864
    .
    What is this Right of the Citizen which differs so "radically and obviously" from one who
    uses the highway as a place of business? In State vs. City of Spokane, the Court also noted
    a very "radical and obvious" difference, but went on to explain just what the difference is:
    "The former is the usual and ordinary right of the Citizen, a common right to all, while the
    latter is special, unusual, and extraordinary."
    State vs. City of Spokane, 
    186 P. 864
    "Undoubtedly the right of locomotion, the right to remove from one place to another
    according to inclination, is an attribute of personal Liberty, and the right, ordinarily, of
    free transit from or through the territory of any State is a right secured by the 14th
    Amendment and by other provisions of the Constitution."
    Schactman v Dulles, 96 App D.C. 287, 293.

    1- Sherar v. Cullen, 
    481 F. 945
    .
    There is no question that a citation/ticket issued by a police officer, for no driver's license,
    no current vehicle registration, no vehicle insurance etc. which carries a fine or jail time, is
    a penalty or sanction, and is indeed "converting a Right into a crime".
    The information above has clearly and adequately explained that personal traveling is
    a natural right that the DMV or any state/city can not infringe, molest, permit, license,
    and/ or deprive a citizen of. However, if I was traveling commercially, I would need the above
    mentioned items as I would be "driving" a "motor vehicle." However, in this instance the
    traveling is not commercial meaning the traveler is neither an "operator" nor "driver" of a
    "mjl~r /ffle" ,/which i~ ~ ~t l)Pf~ required for_ the personallY- traveling citizen.

    The STATE of Texas, Appellee.
    No. 27245.
    Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
    Jan. 12,1985
    Defendant was convicted of unlawfully operating a motor vehicle upon a public highway while his
    operator's license was suspended.The County Court, PanolaCounty, Clifford S. Roe, J., rendered
    judgment, and an appeal was taken.The Court of Criminal Appeals, Belcher, C., held that proof that
    defendant had driven an automobile while his driver's license was suspended did not sustain
    allegations of charge that he had driven while his operator's license was suspended.
    Judgment reversed and cause remanded.
    1. Automobiles Key 353
    Upon a charge of operating- a motor vehicle upon a public highway while operator's license is
    suspended, the state has burden of showing that defendant had been issued an operator's license to
    drive a motor vehicle upon a public highway, that such license has been suspended, and that, while
    such license was suspended, defendant drove a motor vehicle upon a public highway.
    2. Automobiles Key 352
    Proof that defendant had driven an automobile while his driver's license was suspended did not

    BELCHER, Commissioner.
    Appellant was convicted, in the County Court Panola County, for unlawfully operating- a motor vehicle
    upon a public highway while his operator's license was suspended, and his punishment was
    assessed at a fine of $25.
    [1 ]Under such a charge, the state wasunder the burden of showing that there had been issued an
    operator's license to appellant to drive a motor vehicle upon a public highway;that such license had
    been suspended;and that,whilesuchlicensewas atsuspended, appellant drove a motor vehicle upon a
    public highway.
    To meet this requirement, the state here relies upon testimony that appellant drove his pick-up truck
    upon a public highway in Panola County, on the date alleged, and that he drove said motor vehicle
    while his license was suspended
    Page - Tex. 402
    [2, 3]"This proof is insufficient to 'sustain the allegations of the offense charged in the information
    because a driver's license is not an operator's license.We have held that there is no such license as a
    driver's license known to our law.Hassell v. State,

    Prosecution for driving motor vehicle on public road after operator's license had been suspended. The
    County Court at Law, Potter County, Mary Lou Robinson, J., entered judgment of conviction and
    defendant appealed.The Court of Criminal Appeals, Woodley, J., held that where testimony showed
    that only two persons were in or around truck at time defendant was apprehended and patrolman
    testified that the other person was not the driver of truck, and largely upon this testimony jury found
    defendant guilty, and after jury retired police officer filed complaint charging other person with driving
    motor vehicle with violation of restrictions imposed on his operator's license and such other person
    was convicted upon his plea of guilty, defendant's motion for new trial setting forth conviction of such
    other person should have been granted in order that defendant might have the benefit of evidence
    regarding conviction of other party in another trial.
    Reversed and remanded.

    License*** "and that said suspension had not expired.
    We have searched the record carefully and find no evidence that the license which had been
    suspended was a Texas Operator's License, as alleged in the information.
    If appellant was driving a motor vehicle, it was a panel truck used as a commercial vehicle in
    appellant's business, the appropriate license for its operation being a Commercial Operator's License,
    and not an Operator's License.See Art. 6687b. Sec. I (n), Vernon's Ann.Civ.St.
    This Court has held that there is no such license known to Texas law as a "driver's license".See
    Hassell v. State, 149 Tex. Cr.R. 333, 194S.W.2d400; Brooks v. State, 
    158 Tex. Crim. 546

    .
    There were but two persons in or around the panel truck. One was Walter Schaff, who was seated in
    the driver's seat when the patrolmen reached it. Patrolman Kirkwood testified that Schaff was not
    .   .
    driving the panel truck, and largely upon his testimony the jury found that appellant was the driver.
    After the jury retired, Officer Kirkwood filed complaint charging Schaff with driving [Page- Tex 361] a
    motor vehicle in violation of restrictions imposed in his operator's license. Information was presented
    by the County Attorney and Schaff was convicted upon his plea of guilty.
    Appellant's motion for new trial setting forth the conviction of Schaff after the close of the evidence on
    appellant's trial should have been granted in order that upon another trial appellant might have the
    benefit of the evidence regarding the conviction of Schaff.
    Appellant's motion for rehearing is granted; our former opinion herein affirming the judgment is
    withdrawn, and the judgment is now reversed and the cause remanded

    Under Drivers' License Act it is unlawful for any person to drive or operate a motor vehicle over a
    highway of Texas without having a license, either as an operator, a commercial operator or a
    chauffeur, but one holding a license as a commercial operator or chauffeur is not required to have an
    operator's license.Vernon's Ann.Civ. St. art. 6687b, §§2,3,44.
    2. Automobiles Key 351
    Information alleging that defendant operated a motor vehicle upon public highway without a "driver's
    license" charged no offense under Drivers' License Act, since a driver's license is not known to the
    law because the act only authorizes issuance of operators' commercial operators' and chauffeurs'
    license and use of term "driver" interchangeably with term "operator" would not be authorized in view
    of definition in the act of term driver as meaning every person who drives or is in actual physical
    possession of a vehicle. Vernon's Ann.Civ. St. art. 6687b, §§ 2, 3, 44.
    Commissioners' Decision.
    Appeal from Hunt County Court; Wm. C. Parker, Judge.
    W. Lee Hassell was convicted of operating a motor vehicle upon a highway without a license, and he
    appeals.
    Reversed and prosecution ordered dismissed.
    G. C. Harris, of Greenville, for appellant.

    The conviction is for operating a motor vehicle upon a highway without a license; thepunishment, a
    fine of $50.
    By what is commonly referred to as the Drivers' License Act, and appearing as Art. 6687b of Vernon's
    Annotated Civil Statutes, the Legislature of this State provided for the licensing of operators of motor
    vehicles over the public highways of this State. Sec. 2 of Article II of the Act reads as follows:
    "Drivers must have license.
    "(a) No person, except those hereinafter expressly exempted, shall drive any motor vehicle upon a
    highway in this State unless such person has a valid license as an operator, a commercial operator,
    or a chauffeur under the provisions of this Act.
    "(b) Any person holding a valid chauffeur's or commercial operator's license hereunder need not
    procure an operator's license.
    "(c) No person holding an operator's, commercial operator's, or chauffeur's license duly issued under
    the provisions of this Act shall be required to obtain any license for the operation of a motor vehicle
    from any other State authority or department.Subsection (c) of Section 4 of Article 911A and
    Subsection (b) of Section 4 of Article 9118, Revised Civil Statutes, is hereby repealed."
    Sec. 44 of Art. VI of the Act provides the penalty .for the violation.
    Page Tex. 401
    [1 ]It is by these statutes made unlawful for any person to drive or operate a motor vehicle over a
    highway of this State withouthaving a license, either asan "operator," a "commercial operator," or a
    "chauffeur."One holding a license as a "commercial operator" or "chauffeur" is not required to have an
    "operator's" license.
    Certain exemptions and exceptions from the operation of the Act are provided in Sec. 3 of Art. II
    thereof.
    .   .
    The information upon which this conviction was predicated alleged that appellant "did then and there
    unlawfully operate a motor vehicle upon a public highway, to wit. State Highway No. 24, without a
    Driver's License."
    It is insisted that the information charges no offense, because a "driver's license" is neither
    recognized nor authorized to be issued under the Act and, by reason thereof, it constitutes no offense
    to drive a motor vehicle without such a license.
    [2]0nly three types of licenses are authorizedorrequiredundertheAct. These are "operators,"
    "commercial operators," and "chauffeurs," and they are specially defined in the Act.The term
    "driver"--as used in the Act-is defined to be: "Every person who drives or is iri actual physical
    control of a vehicle."ln view of this particular definition of the term "driver," it cannot be said that such
    term may be used interchangeably with or given the same meaning as the term "operator."
    There being no such license as a "driver's" license known to the law, it follows that the information, in
    charging the driving of a motor vehicle upon a public highway without such a license, charges no
    offense.
    Because of the defect in the information, the judgment is reversed and prosecution ordered
    dismissed.

    of Criminal Appeals and approved by the Court.

    To: Dan Flynn Texas House member
    When can I expect the common law court to be open again that was closed by Bar Card
    attorneys since you have sworn an oath to uphold law it is the duty of the Texas
    legislature to make sure all courts are open See Texas "bill of Rights" Art 1 Sec 13 and
    15 Texas Constitution. I have a right to be tried by common law in a common law court ..
    See attached 1934 act of the federal congress. Proof that I have the right to be tried in
    common law. To deny me that Right has denied me remedy and justice and allows the
    fraud artist attorneys to continue with their extortion using fraudulent commercial
    document and fraudulent commercial process without venue or jurisdiction Closing the
    common-law court is an unlawful act no court in Texas has jurisdiction to do so. When a
    judge or court moves without jurisdiction it is an act of treason. The state agents
    criminally convert my name to a all capital letter corporate fictional name fraudulently
    and is not harmless error. Then they use capital letter corporate fictional fraudulent name
    to service the crime victim.
    November 8, 2014 the Grand Saline a for profit Corporation sent out their revenue agents
    (Police) to arrest me and issue a unlawful tax citation by criminally converting my name
    to a corporate fiction. Then on November 13, 2014 sent me a notice of a pre-trial hearing
    set for hearing for a difference fraudulent fictional corporate person then was on the
    fraudulent tax collector (Police policy enforcement officer's) tax citation and affidavit. At
    the hearing there was no one present except a woman with a side arm and a Commercial
    agent attorney claim to be the prosecutor no judge no plaintiff no grand jury indictment
    no contract and no damage party. It was evident he was acting as judge plaintiff grand
    jury without any type of contract or damage party. I attempted to talk to him that no law
    had been violated by me. He did not want to listen. He said he was going to give me a
    trial and I ask him what would happen if I didn't show for the fictional actor. He said he
    would issue a warrant for my arrest. It further evident he is using because I said so law
    which is criminal abuse, oppression and rights violation.
    The courts have ruled many time "There is in Texas no such license as driver's License"
    Art 6687b sec 3(c) is evidence that the courts have correctly ruled.
    Texas Transportation code Section 201.904 define whom the speed sign on the highways
    and roads and it is commercial vehicles.
