NOTICE OF DEMAND FOR ABATEMENT and DEMAND FOR ABATEMENT.

Dear DIRECTOR:

Notice:
To any and all Officers and employees of the now-discovered-to be The Bureau of Internal Revenue (a.k.a. Internal Revenue Service):

Based upon my discovery of this information on May 8, 2000: "BY ORDER OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY ... 1. The Bureau of Internal Revenue shall hereafter be known as the Internal Revenue Service." (emphasis added) http://www.ustreas.gov/regs/to150-06.htm [as of September 21, 2000], and upon my discovery of this information on May 12, 2000: "4. Denies that the Internal Revenue Service is an agency of the United States Government but admits that the United States of America would be proper party to this action. ..." (emphasis added) http://www.lawresearch-registry.org/irsnara0.htm [as of May 12, 2000], I now reasonably expect, Require, and Demand your organization's meticulous, scrupulous, and timely response to this letter.

Because of prior documented specific actions of purported members of this organization, your organization's response(s) to this Notice and Demand is subject to 18 UNITED STATES CODE ANNOTATED (2000), Sections 1341 and 1346 which read, in relevant part:

Section 1341: Whoever, having devised ... any scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, ... for the purpose of executing such scheme or artifice or attempting so to do, places in any post office ... any matter or thing whatever to be sent or delivered by the Postal Service, ... shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.

Section 1346: For the purposes of this chapter, the term "scheme or artifice to defraud" includes a scheme or artifice to deprive another of the intangible right of honest services. (emphasis added)

I will no longer communicate with any officer/employee/personnel/person of the now-discovered-to-be The Bureau of Internal Revenue except in writing over said individual's valid lawful signature.


1. To all interested parties, please take Notice that I hereby make formal Demand for the Abatement of the facially invalid "CP:71" (dated SEP. 11, 2000 and identified by the number 45212-113-03702-6 200035)

2. On September 19, 2000, I was delivered the "CP:71" referenced above and this letter is in response to that document. I am returning said document, marked on its face: "Refused for Cause: Invalid Instrument" for reasons which I will discuss below.

3. On September 21, 2000, I mailed, under separate cover, a F.O.I.A. Request to the FRESNO SERVICE CENTER for relevant Record(s) relating to this matter and I request that you expedite said F.O.I.A. Request.

4.a. In 1995/1996, as currently, I was not knowingly the "withholding agent" (as defined in 26 U.S.C.A. 7701(a)(16) [2000]) for the fictitious entity THOMAS M THORNHILL III and I do not know who, if anyone, was or is.

7701(a) "(16) Withholding agent.--The term "withholding agent" means any person required to deduct and withhold any tax under the provisions of section 1441, 1442, 1443, or 1461."
4.b. I am not knowingly a "person, in whatever capacity acting ... having the control, receipt, custody, disposal, or payment of any of the items of income specfied in subsection (b) ... for any nonresident alien individual or ... any foreign partnership" (26 U.S.C.A. 1441).

4.c.1. Even if I were, I still have no reason to believe that the fictitious entity THOMAS M THORNHILL III is a "nonresident alien individual".

4.c.2. I also still have no reason to believe that the fictitious entity THOMAS M THORNHILL III is a "foreign partnership".

4.d. I am not knowingly a person acting in any capacity for any "foreign corporations subject to taxation under this subtitle" (26 U.S.C.A. 1442).

4.e. Even if I were, I still have no reason to believe that the fictitious entity THOMAS M THORNHILL III is a "foreign corporations subject to taxation under this subtitle".

4.f. I do not knowingly have control of the "income of a foreign organization subject to the tax imposed by section 511," or "income of a foreign corporation subject to the tax imposed by section 4948(a)," (26 U.S.C.A. 1443).

4.g.1. Even if I did, I still have no reason to believe that the fictitious entity THOMAS M THORNHILL III is a "foreign organization subject to the tax imposed by section 511".

4.g.2. I also have no reason to believe that the fictitious entity THOMAS M THORNHILL III is a "foreign corporation subject to the tax imposed by section 4948(a)".

4.h. I am not knowingly a "person required to deduct and withhold any tax under this chapter" (26 U.S.C.A. 1461).

4.i. Even if I were, I still have no reason to believe that the fictitious entity THOMAS M THORNHILL III is subject to "any tax under this chapter".

4.j. My necessary inference from items 4.a. through 4.i. taken together is that I legally cannot be "hereby made liable for such tax" (26 U.S.C.A. 1461) for any actions taken or omitted in the non-capacity of "withholding agent".

5. Since it is legally impossible for me to prove a negative, I Demand that the Director, as an act of Good Faith, disclose and deliver to me all Evidence in his possession or under his control which The Bureau of Internal Revenue relies upon to support the hidden presumption that I was, or am, a withholding agent for the fictitious entity THOMAS M THORNHILL III.

6.a. Absent any Evidence disclosed and delivered to me by the Director to support The Bureau of Internal Revenue's bare and unsupported "CP:71", I am entitled to presume that all statements made on the face of said "CP:71" are false.

6.b. That means that, absent any Evidence disclosed and delivered by the Director, the statement: (1) "OUR RECORDS SHOW YOU STILL OWE A BALANCE FOR TAX YEAR 1995." is False and should be corrected to read 'YOU DO NOT OWE A BALANCE FOR TAX YEAR 1995".
(2) "THE AMOUNT YOU OWE IS $508.89." is False and should be corrected to read "THE AMOUNT YOU OWE IS $0."
(3) "AMOUNT UNPAID FROM PRIOR NOTICES" of "$275.99" is False and should be corrected to read "$0".
(4) "PENALTY FOR LATE PAYMENT OF TAX" of "$92.05" is False and should be corrected to read "$0".
(5) "INTEREST ON LATE PAYMENT" of "$140.85" is False and should be corrected to read "$0".

7.a. Because of the multitude of clerical errors plainly showing on the face of the "CP:71", I hereby Demand Abatement under 26 U.S.C.A. 6213(b)(2)(A):

"(2) Abatement of assessment of mathematical or clerical errors.--
(A) Request for abatement.
--...a taxpayer may file with the Secretary within 60 days after notice is sent under paragraph (1) a request for abatement of any assessment specified in such notice, and upon receipt of such request, the Secretary shall abate the assessment. ..."
7.b. If you, in your Official capacity as DIRECTOR OF THE FRESNO SERVICE CENTER, have not been delegated the authority to abate this nuisance "CP:71", please immediately Forward this letter to "the Secretary" for his action.

8. I also Claim a stay of execution as provided by 26 U.S.C.A. 6213(b)(3):

"(B) Stay of execution.-- In the case of any assessment referred to in paragraph (1), notwithstanding paragraph (1), no levy or proceeding in court for the collection of such assessment shall be made, begun, or prosecuted during the period in which such assessment may be abated under this paragraph."
9.a. Since you and all your officers and employees are presumed to know the following information, I am not required to remind you of it, but I will.

9.b. 18 U.S.C.A. (2000) Section 872 reads:

"Whoever, being an officer, or employee of the United States or any department or agency thereof, or representing himself to be or assuming to act as such, under color or pretense of office or employment commits or attempts an act of extortion, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both; but if the amount so extorted or demanded does not exceed $1,000, he shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both."
9.c. In California, "extortion" is defined under WEST'S CALIFORNIA CODES ANNOTATED, THE PENAL CODE (2000) Section 518:
"518. Definition
"Extortion is the obtaining of property from another, with his consent, ... induced by a wrongful use of force or fear, or under color of official right."
9.d. 26 U.S.C.A (2000) Section 7214 reads, in relevant part:
"(a) Unlawful acts of revenue officers or agents.--Any officer or employee of the United States acting in connection with any revenue law of the United States--
"(1) who is guilty of any extortion or willful oppression under color of law; or
"(2) who knowingly demands other or greater sums than are authorized by law, ...
"(7) who makes or signs any fraudulent entry in any book, or makes or signs any fraudulent certificate, return, or statement ...
"shall be dismissed from office or discharged from employment and, upon conviction thereof, shall be fined not more than $10,000, or imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both....".
10.a. I am gaining more and more information which gives me reasonable cause to believe that The Bureau of Internal Revenue is somehow associated with THE COMMONWEALTH OF PUERTO RICO.
10.b. I Declare for the Record that I have never in my life physically visited or lived on the island of Porto Rico (now known as "Puerto Rico".
10.c. I Declare for the Record that I have never knowingly established any legal presence, residence, or domicile within THE COMMONWEALTH OF PUERTO RICO.
10.d. I Declare for the Record that should any person purporting to be, or have been, acting on my behalf have established, or attempted to establish, such a legal presence, residence, or domicile within THE COMMONWEALTH OF PUERTO RICO, said action(s) were, and are, without my knowledge, authority, permission, or consent. I would, and do, consider said action(s) to be unauthorized, deceptive, and fraudulent from their inception.

I Certify, under the penalty for perjury in the Law of the united states of America, that I have read the foregoing Document and it is True and Accurate.
