Te Kara Salvage Claim grants the authority of a Sovereign Court of the People

Details

The Salvage Claim, combined with the Native Earth Claim, legally establishes the authority of a Sovereign Court of the People.

The recognition of this court is not based on permission from statutory courts but on the lawful presence and consensus of those standing under it.

The principle of sovereignty is that it derives from the will of the living people, not a corporation or government.

 

How Many People Are Needed?

1. At Minimum: Three (3) People to Form a Lawful Tribunal

  1. A court must have a minimum of three sovereigns to act as a tribunal.
  2. This follows the common law principle of "Court de Jure" (Court of Right) and Indigenous Tikanga practices.
  3. One acts as the Chief Judge, one as the Scribe, and one as the Witness/Enforcer.
  4. This minimum number ensures fair judgment and legal recognition under ancient and sovereign customs.

2. For Greater Recognition: Twelve (12) People for a Jury of Peers

  1. A jury of twelve (12) sovereign people strengthens the recognition of the court.
  2. Twelve (12) is the recognized number used in both tribal councils and historic common law courts.
  3. This establishes an undeniable People’s Court with community authority.

3. To Make It Unstoppable: One Hundred (100) or More for Mass Authority

  1. When 100 or more people physically stand under the Salvage Claim and form the Sovereign Court, it becomes politically unignorable.
  2. This level of participation enforces mass jurisdiction, making it a legal and physical force.
  3. Governments and courts will struggle to deny legitimacy when large numbers of people lawfully assemble and enforce their own court rulings.

What Recognition Does This Provide?

  1. With 3 People: Recognized as a sovereign tribunal under natural law and Tikanga.
  2. With 12 People: Functions as a full sovereign court, recognized in common law history.
  3. With 100+ People: Becomes a fully enforceable People’s Court with undeniable legal standing.

Final Verdict:

  1. A minimum of 3 People establishes a lawful sovereign court.
  2. A jury of 12 People solidifies recognition and makes it difficult to deny.
  3. 100+ People create a legal force that cannot be ignored by government, courts, or media.

Form the Sovereign Court with 12 members first, then gather 100+ people to enforce its rulings and establish full legal authority over the land.

 
 
 

Can 300 People Standing Under the Salvage Claim Demand Military Assistance Against the State?

  1. If 300 People stand as One under the Salvage Claim and form a Sovereign Court, they create an unignorable lawful authority.
  2. If the state refuses to recognize the ruling, they are committing a direct act of aggression against a lawful sovereign body.
  3. In historical and international law, when a sovereign people are attacked by a state, they can call upon external military assistance.

Can the Sovereign Court Lawfully Demand Military Assistance?

  1. YES—Under International Law, Sovereign Peoples Can Request Protection from Aggression.
  2. If a self-governing people declare sovereignty and establish lawful governance (which the Salvage Claim does), they have the right to defend themselves.
  3. If a government refuses to recognize a sovereign ruling and uses force against peaceful sovereigns, it is an act of war.
  4. This justifies the right of the People to seek external military assistance.

Relevant International Law Principles Supporting This:

  1. United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP)
  2. Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) Articles 1 & 15 (Right to Self-Determination)
  3. International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) Articles 1 & 9
  4. Customary International Law & Jus Cogens (fundamental international legal norms)

Final Answer: YES—The Sovereign Court Can Request Military Assistance If the State Uses Force Against It.

Who Could Provide Military Assistance?

1. United Nations Peacekeeping Forces

  • The UN can deploy peacekeepers when human rights abuses or acts of war occur against sovereign peoples.
  • A formal request must be submitted with evidence of aggression.

2. Other Sovereign Nations Supporting Indigenous Rights

  • Nations that recognize Indigenous sovereignty and human rights law could intervene diplomatically or militarily.
  • Countries like Russia, China, and certain Pacific nations have histories of supporting Indigenous sovereignty claims against colonial powers.

3. Private Military Contractors (PMCs) & Security Forces

  • Some private security forces operate globally to protect sovereign interests (though this is a last resort).

 

Final Answer: YES—The Sovereign Court Can Lawfully Request Military Assistance If the State Engages in Violence Against It.

 

What Needs to Happen to Make This Work?

Step 1: Hold the Sovereign Court with 300+ People and Issue a Ruling

  • Issue a final, enforceable ruling under the Salvage Claim.
  • Notify all government agencies and law enforcement of the ruling.

Step 2: Document Any Government Repression as an Act of War

  • If the state ignores the ruling and continues land seizure/arrests, gather proof.
  • Use video, witness testimony, and legal documentation.

Step 3: Submit a Military Assistance Request to International Bodies

  • Send official requests to the UN and friendly nations.
  • Use the evidence of state aggression to justify intervention.

Final Verdict: If 300 People Stand as One Under the Salvage Claim and the Government Ignores the Sovereign Court, They Can Lawfully Request Military Assistance to Defend Their Sovereignty.
