    An Attorney's Duty

    Uploaded by

    An attorney's first duty is to the court, not the client. When a client hires an attorney, the client becomes a ward of the court and loses the ability to challenge the court's jurisdiction over their case. In order to challenge jurisdiction, one must represent themselves without an attorney and claim status as "sui juris" or "in propria persona". Hiring an attorney means admitting the jurisdiction of the court.

    To what or whom is an attorney's first duty? Consult the latest Corpus Juris Secundum (C.J.S.) legal encyclopedia, volume 7, section 4 below:

    What is the legal relationship between an attorney and his/her client?

    What is a ward of the court?

    (Are you an infant or person of unsound mind?) Do you need to challenge jurisdiction?

    http://commonlawvenue.com/Court/004-to_what_or_whom_is_an_attorney.htm

    Better read the following, particularly "...because if pleaded by an attorney....."

    Conclusions of law: 1. When you hire an attorney, you become a ward of the court and a second class citizen and you admit the jurisdiction of the court in the matter at hand. 2. You can't hire an attorney if you want to challenge jurisdiction. 3. If you want to challenge jurisdiction, the only way you can do it is as a "sui juris" and/or "in propria persona".
