Comes Now, Ralph Kermit Winterrowd 2^nd, a American citizen, Natural Born Native and citizen of the foreign state of Kansas domiciled in the territorial boundaries of Alaska. And further, Ralph Kermit Winterrowd 2^nd is a free white citizen and man arising under the original jurisdiction of the de jure Constitution of the United States of 1789 as amended by the qualified electors of the several States of this American Union and the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 for the territories of the de jure United States.

And further, Ralph Kermit Winterrowd 2^nd, gives or grants no jurisdiction or venue to this unlawful court. I protest, object and take exception to these proceedings, to the unlawful, illegal and usurpers of public office known as judges, magistrates, police, and clerks appearing to do justice. I also give notice of a special appearance, even though this is not a constitutional or legislatively created court. I am constant fear of my life, liberty, and property from police, troopers, State of Alaska (sic) and Anchorage, a municipal corporation (sic).

In order to expedite disposition of this case, or adequately prepare for motions, demands and trial, as the case may be, the prosecutor and its agents, assigns or nominees provide the following discovery at your earliest convenience.
