Forget the Common Law, the Secret is Equity

[Prof]

There are still separate Chancery Courts in Delaware, Mississippi, Tennessee, and "Masters in Equity" in S.C.

Of these, the most influential is the Delaware Court, which is one of the most influential courts in the US.

Hey, if you want to contest your 21st century US tax case in a 19th century British court, it works.

Okay, this really made me laugh.

Two things occurred to me when I read eathshakes post on lost souls website:

1. How long until Pete kicks her off his website for going against his truth. At one point in her post she gives him kudos for going to jail and for all his excellent research but then basically tells him he was researching the wrong thing. That sounds like lost souls blasphemy to me.

...

Pete has responded at length. A sample:

To make an equity case in the court of public opinion is another matter, of course-- and that IS where the case most needs to be made. But again, that case is most readily made (or at least has been proven to be very successfully made) using the statutes to show who's upholding and conforming to the law and who is not.

(emphasis mine)

Yeah, nothing says success like a prison sentence.
