What is the common law and why does it matter? Professor Richard Epstein of New York University School of Law explains how basic rules provide the means for navigating complex legal questions. Learn more at fedsoc.org/no86.

Common law: Property, contract, tort, restitution. 1. First person acquire unowned object is owner 2. If you make a promise you should keep it. 3. If you engage in aggression, you engage in wrongful conduct.

The Common Law. Cause No harm, No loss, No breach of peace, No deceit within contract. Together with our Constitution, Magna Carts 1215. That covers any legislation, acts, or statutes.

@@annoyingbstard9407 The book, the dome, (doom). A book of old rules and customs. When broken down equate to four Laws, (see above). There not written down. Why would you need to when they are inherent to all of us?. They have been subverted over time, to obscure them, by using the word "Law" in a subversive way, when it comes to legislation, acts, or statutes, (legal). What is written though, are the official documents showing treason FCO 30 1048, from the 70's, but it's been going on for a lot longer than that. Also, keep in mind article 61, which brought about Lawful Rebellion was invoked in 2001, and ignored.

The defining characteristic of common law is that it arises as precedent. Common law courts look to the past decisions of courts to synthesize the legal principles of past cases. Stare decisis, the principle that cases should be decided according to consistent principled rules so that similar facts will yield similar results, lies at the heart of all common law systems.

objection here ... legal does not apply to common law = law of the land , whereas , legal applies only upon water , further , legal does not apply to a man or a woman , and only applies to a created fiction . Property trespass occurs upon any legal fiction with duties and obligations , administering property without right . Constructed fraud applies to all created fictions , that were involved with the society of today , which in fact operates only upon theft of property [your name and family name ] the creation of a legal fiction = your birth certificate . As a professor , please identify the section whereby legal [ roman civil law ] , applies to a man or a woman . Please also identify the obligation [contract with full disclosure ] whereby a man or woman is obligated to obey civil law .

After listen to most of the video and then reading a few of the comments. I reach a / the conclusion this man does not really understand what is common--- especially what is common law. He I fell would do well to go to a area of the world where people are just People and not influenced by legal-law. That is what is "common" to every man in the area and not what has become common knowledge between a layer/attorney and man/ that is the people. Common is Kommon is common sense and not that which has been written down by some scholar. thank you....

Plainly, you have little knowledge of Common Law. Common Laws are the laws of the constitution or the law of the land. In consideration of common law, if anyone wrongs you, you have the right to receive damages for injury. should that person refuse to respond in damages, the outcome, could be death. And stop referring to people. People are not subject to statutory laws.

Common Law, (see above). Constitution, legislation, acts, or statutes. Which only have the backing of the Law, if agreed to by the ppl on a whole. The Common Law is set, no changing it. The Constitution, (legal/guidance) can be changed, but not without the approval of the ppl, after being made aware of all the facts, with regards to specific issues. Any attempt out side of that would be an act of Sedition, (to subvert the Constitution) which in it's self is an act of Treason, (to subvert the ppl, who make up the Common Law).

Yeah this guy don't know much. Under common law you can only use it, if you are a child of God. You can not use Maritime law, in common law. In Common law you have to use Trial by Jury. Not Jury trial. You are using the God given rights. Not the rights given by Statutory laws. All the people that play on the court belong to the same club. You as a child of God can not win against the game they play in. court. They know the game and how it is played. You are an infant in there game, you will get hurt. So you need one of them to repesent you. If you step into their game you will get hurt. Just like a basketball game. If you don't know how to play the game you can get hurt. You have to know who you are in Christ, to play common law. A person that belongs to their bar can not help you with Common law.

IT IS AN UNFORTUNATE FACT ; the denial of legal in different countries denying the common wealth [ english ] standards of different common laws is sad . Corruption of the minds of man and woman is still being carried out to this very day , and the proof of this is the condition that our existing world has been steered towards . We the people , must stand together , and before the corruption , with full people capable of Common Law Challenges , for the very / very, many to follow upon , and practice . It is a correct statement to say that specific Common Laws are practiced in different countries , how-ever , we the people must realize that Common Law has only subtle differences regarding the different disciplines , and therefore , the use of all Common Law may be used in all Common [wealth of the royal family only and the church ] Wealth countries ... as an example ; each man or woman may create a certified Common Law identification ---each [wo]man may also stand before any legal court as a living breathing entity and not the created legal fiction --- each [wo]man , may also challenge the juris - diction [jurisdiction ] , of legal at any time , including after supposed decisions have been made , as any and all decisions acted upon the basis of wrong jurisdiction or legal constructive fraud , are null and void . Please any lawyer or any judge or any professor , please do correct me here or within any public forum that you choose to scold me or correct me , as it would be very pleasing and refreshing to show the world peoples , that no obligation [ contract ] existing , means no force or effect . I would also bring up the question to you ; " Do the rules of civil procedure apply to any [wo]man or do they only apply to a created legal fiction that is derived from identity theft and constructive fraud "? IT IS A FORTUNATE FACT ; all actions decided upon by those administering property without right , can be challenged , and it is factual , that no statute of limitations exists for actions proceeded upon by means of fraud . At No Time is a wrong action made right by the passing of time ! Fraud , can never be converted into a right , by the passing of time ! This people is light and truth [ Lux Veritas ] courage [Virtus] ... to bring all corruption to an end . I am but one man , standing with another , and together we are stronger , and it is we two , plus more men and women , standing with others that will unite this world into a free society of people ... peoples of the world , standing before all corruptions , and bringing others forward , to challenge ... a warrior calls .com --- the 4 foundational knowledge video's , then see case files , but specifically # 5 ... see the down loads section --- bring forth the documents to many others , this is your chance to stand free ... never forget that natural law exists in this entire world --- Mark Passio --- Natural Law seminar series to begin with ... the truth is everywhere and now we bring forward for all to see ... hopefully , this does help to further peoples knowledge and understanding ... perhaps some will even then possess the wisdom to express this knowledge to many others ..."T"...
