Lesson 00: Foundational Definitions — Status & Correction
Status Correction Starts in the Mind
Before you can reclaim your standing, you must understand what "status" and "correction" truly mean—both in law and in practice. This foundational lesson explores the legal weight behind these terms and lays the groundwork for private living.
What Is "Status"?
In common usage, status refers to someone's social, professional, or legal position. But in law, status has a deeper meaning—one that governs how the system sees and treats you.
Status determines:
  • Your rights and obligations
  • Which laws apply to you
  • How courts interact with you
  • What remedies are available to you
Understanding your legal status is key to understanding your relationship with government, society, and law.
Status in Black's Law Dictionary
A state or condition
Status represents your legal condition at a given time—not just a temporary relationship, but a classification with ongoing legal consequences.
Legal relation to the community
Your status defines how the legal system views your relationship to society as a whole, establishing boundaries of interaction.
Rights, duties, capacities, and incapacities
Status determines what legal actions you can take, what protections you receive, and what obligations are imposed upon you.
Not temporary in nature
Unlike contracts or temporary arrangements, status is an enduring legal classification that follows you until explicitly changed.
According to Black's Law Dictionary (4th Edition), status may also refer to "estate," representing one's legal standing in relation to property.
Additional Insight on "Status"
"A person's status is their legal position or condition."

Status applies especially to individuals under disability or with unique legal limitations:
  • Minors
  • Married persons
  • Corporations
  • Wards of the state
Status determines how the law applies to you, and into what class or legal category you're placed. In short, status is about how you are recognized in law, not just in society.
Status = Legal Mask or Persona
Legal Costume
Status acts like a mask you wear in the legal realm—defining how courts, government agencies, and institutions engage with you.
Assigned Identity
Citizen, resident, alien, minor, ward, trust beneficiary—these are all statuses assigned to you, not inherent to your being.
Required for Public Function
You can't function in public law without a status, which is why governments issue birth certificates and Social Security numbers.
These instruments assign a public identity—a "person" separate from the living man or woman. This separation between your natural self and your legal persona is crucial to understanding status correction.
The Birth Certificate: Creation of a Legal "You"
The birth certificate marks the beginning of your public status:
  • It creates a legal fiction or "estate" that the government can interact with
  • That legal persona is assigned obligations, taxes, and jurisdiction
  • This entity exists in commerce and public law, separate from you as a living being
Think of it like a corporation formed in your name, with you as the liable agent—unless you stop operating in that capacity.
This is why "status correction" doesn't begin with paperwork—it begins with understanding what status you were given and recognizing it as distinct from your true self.
What Does "Correction" Mean?
What Correction IS NOT:
  • Sending forms to the Secretary of State
  • Filing affidavits for recognition
  • Notifying government agencies of your intent to leave
  • A paperwork process that requires external validation
What Correction IS:
  • Reclaiming your private status by withdrawing from contracts
  • Realigning with your original status as a living, private being under natural law
  • Changing your conduct, language, and consent mechanisms
  • A process of self-determination and reassertion of inherent rights
What Is Status Correction?
Status Correction is not a paperwork ritual—it's a fundamental shift in how you think and live:
Recognition of Truth
It is the recognition that you were never the legal fiction—they just assumed you agreed to act as it.
Behavioral Change
True status correction happens when you stop acting as that persona in legal and commercial contexts.
Return to Private Living
It is a return to private living by reclaiming your right to self-determination and operating outside public jurisdiction.
You don't correct status by asking permission—you correct it by ceasing participation.
Key Takeaways
1
Status = Legal Classification
Your status is your legal condition or classification in the eyes of the state—a constructed identity, not your true being.
2
Correction = Reclamation
Correction means reclaiming your private standing through conscious conduct, not through paperwork or external validation.
3
System Interaction
The legal system interacts with your status—not your flesh-and-blood being. Understanding this separation is essential.
Sovereignty begins in the mind
Before you exit the system, you must exit the mindset that keeps you bound to it.
