The "fiction of law", is now dead. seekingalpha.com/user/36191/instablog/se...
"Fictions arise from the law, and not law from fictions."
(Well, they once did so.)
The clearly 'lawful' fact is and remains - as a living women, Lorraine Martin was arrested.
(Put on your 'thinking caps'. Fascinating story, this one.)
Ignorance of the law (from the Hearst newspapers), is also no excuse.
She lost her case (I feel) only because her representation in court (with her, as a living women Lorraine Martin, being the "Plaintiff-Appellant" in this case) has not yet realised that the "fiction of law" now - no longer exists. In that it now lacks any "power" or, backing from the crown. The Pontiff.
(They then had a need to have been in or, should now go on to the Supreme court, of law. And as a living women Lorraine Martin.)
The ongoing Fraud of the "fiction"....
The matter before the court, surrounds: "Plaintiff-Appellant Lorraine Martin brought an action alleging libel and other publication-related claims against media outlets that published accounts of her 2010 arrest.
She alleged that although the accounts were factually true when published, they became false and defamatory when the charges against her were nolled because, under Connecticut's Criminal Records Erasure Statute, when charges against an individual are nolled or dismissed, that individual's criminal records are erased and he [she] is‚ deemed to have never been arrested."
The [Lorraine] Martin "Team" misunderstands the effect of the Erasure Statute. That it is her as the defendant (her "fiction" NAME, as LORRAINE MARTIN) that is no longer considered to have been arrested.
[Page 11/15] - "In short, the Erasure Statute requires the state to erase certain official records of an arrest and [then] grants the defendant the legal status of one who has not been arrested.
But the Erasure Statute's effects end there.
The statute creates legal fictions, but it does not and cannot undo historical facts or convert once-true facts into falsehoods."
