All Lis Pendens (Pending Suit) Foreclosure Are Common-Law Trial By Jury

Of course without much imagination a common-law trial-by-jury MUST take place in a common-law court. No common-law trial-by-jury within the body of the county means: Breach Of Fiduciary Duty and Trespass by all parties who partake in said actions. This includes all actions COMMENCED by any ATTORNEY AT LAW.

In U.S. law, decisions in many civil and criminal trials are made by a jury. Considerable power is vested in this traditional body of ordinary men and women, who are charged with deciding matters of fact and delivering a verdict of guilt or innocence based on the evidence in a case derived from its historical counterpart in English Common-Law, trial by jury has had a central role in American courtrooms since the colonial era, and it is firmly established as a basic guarantee in the National Constitution. Modern juries are the result of a long series of Supreme Court decisions that have interpreted this constitutional liberty and, in significant ways extended it.

JURY defined: A body of men selected according to law, for the purpose of deciding some controversy. 2. This mode of trial by jury was adopted soon after the conquest of England, by William, and was fully established for the trial of civil suits in the reign of Henry II. Crabb's C. L. 50, 61. In the old French law they are called inquests or tourbes of ten men. 2 Loisel's Inst. 238, 246, 248. 3. Juries are either grand juries, (q.v.) or petit juries. The former having been treated of elsewhere, it will only be necessary to consider the latter. A petit jury consists of twelve citizens duly qualified to serve on juries, impanelled and sworn to try one or more issues of facts submitted to them, and to give a judgment respecting the same, which is called a verdict. 4. Each one of the citizens so impanelled and sworn is called a juror. Vide Trial. 5. The constitution of the United States directs, that "the trial of all crimes, except in cases of impeachment, shall be by jury;" and this invaluable institution is also, secured by the several state constitutions. The constitution of the United States also provides that in suits at common-law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved. Amend. VII. 6. It is scarcely practicable to give the rules established in the different states to secure impartial juries; it may, however, be stated that in all, the selection of persons who are to serve on the jury is made by disinterested officers, and that out of the lists thus made out, the jurors are selected by lot.

LIS PENDENS defined: A pending suit. Jurisdiction, power, or control which courts acquire over property in litigation pending action and until final judgment. A common-law doctrine, now codified in many states so as to condition its effect on the filing of a notice, that binds a purchaser or encumbrancer of property to the results of any pending lawsuit which may affect the title to, any lien on, or possession of the property. Purpose of "lis pendens" is to notify prospective purchasers and encumbrancers that any interest acquired by them in property in litigation is subject to decision of court and while it is simply a notice of pending litigation the effect thereof on the owner of property is constraining. Beefy King Intern., Inc., v. Veigle, C.A.Fla., 464 F.2d 1102, 1104. Black’s Law Dictionary Sixth Edition (page 932)

NOTICE OF LIS PENDENS defined: A notice filed on public records for the purpose of warning all persons that the title to certain property is in litigation,\ and that they are in danger of being bound by an adverse judgment. The notice is for the purpose of preserving rights pending litigation. Mitchell v. Federal Land Bank of St. Louis, 206 Ark. 253, 174 S.W.2d 671, 674. This is termed a "notice

of pendency" in New York. CPLR § 650l. Black’s Law Dictionary Sixth Edition (page 932)

LIS defined: at law. Lat. A controversy or dispute; a suit or action Black’s Law Dictionary Sixth Edition (page 931)

PENDENS defined: Lat. Pending; as lis pendens, a pending suit. Black’s Law Dictionary Sixth Edition (page 1134)

AT LAW defined: This phrase is used to point out that a thing is to be done according to the course of the common-law; it is distinguished from a proceeding in equity. 2. In many cases when there is no remedy at law, one will be afforded in equity. See 3 Bouv. Inst. n. 2411.

PAIS, or PAYS defined: A French word signifying country. In law, matter in pais is matter of fact in opposition to matter of record: a trial per pais, is a trial by the country, that is, by a jury.

Notice of Breach of Fiduciary Duty

Whereas defined by virtue of; Notice of Breach of Fiduciary: (a) In this section: (1) "Fiduciary" means an agent, trustee, partner, corporate officer or director, or other representative owing a fiduciary duty with respect to an instrument. (2) "Represented person" means the principal, beneficiary, partnership, corporation, or other person to whom the duty stated in paragraph (1) is owed. (b) If (i) an instrument is taken from a fiduciary for payment or collection or for value, (ii) the taker has knowledge of the fiduciary status of the fiduciary, and (iii) the represented person makes a claim to the instrument or its proceeds on the basis that the transaction of the fiduciary is a breach of fiduciary duty, the following rules apply: (1) Notice of breach of fiduciary duty by the fiduciary is notice of the claim of the represented person.

FIDUCIARY DUTY defined: A duty to act for someone else's benefit, while subordinating one's personal interests to that of the other person. It is the highest standard of duty implied by law (e.g., trustee, guardian). Black’s Law Dictionary Sixth Edition (page 625)

BREACH OF TRUST defined: Any act done by a trustee contrary to the terms of his trust, or in excess of his authority and to the detriment of the trust; or the wrongful omission by a trustee of any act required of him by the terms of the trust. Also the wrongful misappropriation by a trustee of any fund or property, which had been lawfully committed to him in a fiduciary character. Every violation by a trustee of a duty which equity lays upon him, whether willful and fraudulent, or done through negligence, or arising through mere oversight and forgetfulness, is a "breach of trust." The term, therefore, includes every omission and commission in carrying out the trust according to its terms, of care and diligence in protecting and investing the trust property, and of using perfect good faith. A violation by the trustee of any duty, which he owes to the beneficiary. Bruun v. Hanson, C.C.A.ldaho, 103 F.2d 685, 699. Black’s Law Dictionary Sixth Edition (page 189)

BREACH OF DUTY defined: In a general sense, any violation or omission of a legal or moral duty. More particularly, the neglect or failure to fulfill in a just and proper manner the duties of an office or fiduciary employment. Every violation by a trustee of a duty which equity lays upon him, whether willful and fraudulent, or done through negligence or arising through mere oversight or forgetfulness, is a breach of duty. See Non-support. Black’s Law Dictionary Sixth Edition (page 189)

(b) A person has received notice from the owner or occupant within the meaning of Subsection (a) if he or she has been notified personally, either orally or in writing including a valid court order as defined by subsection (7) of Section 112A-3 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963 granting remedy (2) of subsection (b) of Section 112A-14 of that code, or if a printed written notice forbidding such entry has been conspicuously posted or exhibited at the main entrance to the land of the forbidden part thereof.

Whereas defined by virtue of; conspiracy to defeat enforcement of the laws: If two or more persons in any State or Territory conspire for the purpose of impeding, hindering, obstructing, or defeating, in any manner, the due course of justice in any State or Territory, with intent to deny to any citizen the equal protection of the laws, or to injure him or his property for lawfully enforcing, or attempting to enforce, the right of any person, or class of persons, to the equal protection of the laws, each of such persons shall be punished by a fine of not less than five hundred nor more than five thousand dollars, or by imprisonment, with or without hard labor, not less than six months nor more than six years, or by both such fine and imprisonment.
