Schroder v. People Of The State

Opinion

F I L E D United States Court of Appeals Tenth Circuit UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FEB 27 1997 TENTH CIRCUIT PATRICK FISHER Clerk

DERRAL SCHRODER, a De Jure People for the Freely Associated Compact States of our Union, a Non-citizen of the De Facto Federal Government of D.C.,

Plaintiff-Appellant, v.

PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF No. 96-1320 COLORADO; REGISTERED VOTING (D.C. No. 96-K-1018) CITIZENS OF THE FEDERAL (District of Colorado) GOVERNMENT OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA; CITIZENS OF THE CORPORATE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, that vote for their rulers,

Defendants-Appellees.

ORDER AND JUDGMENT*

Before SEYMOUR, Chief Judge, PORFILIO, Circuit Judge, and MURPHY, Circuit Judge.

* This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. This court generally disfavors the citation of orders and judgments; nevertheless, an order and judgment may be cited under the terms and conditions of 10th Cir. R. 36.3. After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined

unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of this

appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a) and 10th Cir. R. 34.1.9. The case is therefore ordered

submitted without oral argument.

Claiming to be “a People for the Freely Associated Compact States of Our Union,

that has pledged his Life, fortune and Sacred Honor to forcing the Government

Employees to recognize and respect [his] true character as a People of the Almighty

Creator,” Derral Schroder appeals the dismissal of his complaint by the district court. Mr.

Schroder had brought an almost indecipherable action naming as defendants: “People of

the State of Colorado, Registered Voting citizens of the Federal Government of the

District of Columbia, Citizens of the Corporate Federal Government, [sic] that Vote for

their Rulers.” The district court, sua sponte, dismissed the action on the ground the

complaint failed to name any suable entity. We agree and AFFIRM.

ENTERED FOR THE COURT

John C. Porfilio Circuit Judge
