DID YOU KNOW?
That the hospital where you were born got paid an estimated $100,000 in today's money for your birth when your "BIRTH CERTIFICATE" was created by the State. You might ask how this is possible, it's because when you were born and when your "BIRTH CERTIFICATE" was created, a trust was also created.
This means that:
If you were born after 1972 it is a 2 million dollar life insurance policy and a 1 million dollar bond, and before 1972 it was 1 million life insurance policy and a 650,000 bond.
Not to mentioned that your "TRUST" has been traded on the stock market since the day you were born.

The Difference Between Maritime and Common Law
Jurisdiction is very important, and We the People must distinguish the difference, so we know how to stand in law. With mask orders, vaccines and other directives coming from public officials, we will go over how to write up a lawful notice of liability that you can use.
While understanding maritime laws would help you if you’re a frequent sea traveler, common laws can quickly respond to unforeseen cases and situations that were not previously anticipated by legislators. Since it’s hard for parliaments to legislate for every possible issue, common laws can be helpful to examine and develop responses to events in real life.
What is Maritime Law?
Maritime law, also known as admiralty law, is the branch of law that controls navigation and trade on any navigational waters, including the high seas. According to the United States Constitution, federal courts have the authority to exercise admiralty jurisdiction, which covers cases in which claims arise from an accident on any navigable waters of the United States, including those that relate to maritime commerce.
Maritime law deals with contracts that relate to the business of navigation and commerce of the sea, it also looks at cases of crimes that take place on the high seas and directly involve U. S. vessels or American citizens, and maritime suits involve issues that are important on a national level because they relate to international relations, foreign citizen rights, and commerce.
The scope of maritime law also encompasses issues that arise with privately owned boats, even those that are simply used to spend a day of fun with friends and family. It also solves problems that arise with longshoremen, harbor workers, seamen, stevedores, and anyone affected by vessels.
The private law pertaining to ships and the nautical businesses of shipping is called a Maritime Law. Also called Admiralty Law, this is a body that legally governs the operations on the sea. It sees the insurance, registration, and inspection of ships while also dealing the civil matters revolving around the owners of ships and the passengers.
A maritime law oversees any kind of unfortunate accident, or injury of a seaman on a ship, keeping in consideration the time, area, precautionary measures, and nature of work when the accident occurred to assess the right compensation for the injured.
The vast scope of maritime law also encapsulates issues concerning the matters of privately owned boats. This also takes account in the recreational trips of families and friends. Moreover, it also deals with problems that are encountered by harbor workers, seamen, stevedores, longshoremen, anyone who’s affected by ships.
What is Common Law?
The body of legal rules that have been set out by judges when they issue rulings on cases is called common law. It differs from those laws and rules that are defined by the legislature or in official statutes. This reflects the fact that common law is based on usage, custom, and the decisions and opinions of the courts of law.
Also known as case law, is based on legal precedents established by the courts and plays an influential role in the decision-making process of judges, especially so in unusual cases where the outcome is difficult to determine based on existing rules of law or statutes.
Because common law deals with routine, everyday situations as they happen, changes in the way society functions, new inventions and discoveries arise, judges must often look outside reported decisions for guidance in cases that deal with a previously undetermined legal issue. All citizens, notwithstanding their place in society, are subject to the same set of laws.
An unwritten body of laws that are primarily based on judicial precedents is known as Common Law. Common Laws are applied to cases when the results cannot be determined with written law regulations or current law.
The objective of Common law is to represent past decisions made by the courts that become binding examples. Its purpose is to set a standard of interpretation of statutes in order to prevent the courts from repeating the facts and proceedings that are similar. Common law decisions are significant because they involve the obscurity of some specific single statutes and are able to offer solutions to conflicts among statutes.
Common Law vs Maritime Law –– What the Difference?
Perhaps the most salient difference between maritime and common law courts lies in the fact that admiralty judges only apply general maritime law and conduct trials without juries.
Also, maritime law formerly applied exclusively to American tidal waters but now extends to any waters that are navigable within the United States, whether used for foreign or interstate commerce. On the other hand, common law does not act as a binding precedent on maritime courts but it can be used there when no law on the point is available.
The major difference between a maritime law court and a common law court would be the fact that admiralty law courts conduct trials without any jury. The admiralty judges only apply the maritime laws, whereas the common law is not restricted to only one aspect of law.
Another key difference lies in the fact that maritime law used to be applied to American tidal waters formerly. But currently, its jurisdiction has broadened, and it now has extended to those regions of water that are navigable within the boundaries of Unites States, irrespective of the fact whether they’re used for interstate commerce or foreign commerce.
Common laws are also known for their faster, more flexible, and more responsive nature. Common laws often react quickly to changing social issues, community expectations, and other rapid changes.
Common laws also offer clarity, frequently expand, and implement legislation. A significant role is played by the judges in common law legal systems. They examine the specific facts and of each case, administer the law in line with their findings, and interpret relevant legislation.
Conclusion:
It’s always wise to be aware of legal matters, especially when you have a business to run. Thoroughly expound on the different laws that relate to your business or your situation, and prepare yourself before a calamity strikes.
