Defendants/Respondents,

Case No. BC175367
Affidavit of Truth in Support of
Verified Complaint for Libel

The 1879 quasi-constitution has no lawful effect due to the following:

1. It is a fact that the "citizens of California" were expressly authorized to vote for the adoption of the Constitution for the State of California of 1849, see exhibit A.

2. It is a fact that "citizens of California" were never authorized to vote for the "adoption" of the 1879 quasi/constitution. Only "citizens of the United States" were authorized to vote for the 1879 quasi/constitution see Exhibit B. Note that "exhibit B" acknowledged that is was a revision of "exhibit A". The express statement of "citizen of California" was purposefully removed by "revision" in the creating of the quasi/constitution of 1879.

3. This revision hereinabove shown where "citizen of California" was removed, is especially notable when it is taken into consideration that another section from the 1849 Constitution, specifically Article XI, Section 2, see Exhibit C, remained unchanged when placed in the 1879 quasi/constitution at Article XX, Section 2, see Exhibit D, and specifically acknowledged the "citizen of this state". It is clear that the "citizen of this state", i.e. the "citizen of California", is acknowledged in, but not authorized to vote for the adoption of, the quasi/constitution of 1879.

4. It is indisputable that in the time frame of the 1870's, that it is defined in decisional law that a "citizen of the United States" as created under the Fourteenth Amendment to the federal constitution was specifically nothing more than one of the "freed slaves" (or their offspring) after the Civil War. See Cory v. Carter, 48 Ind. 327, 349 [1874] see Exhibit E, and Van Valkenburg v. Brown, 43 Cal. 43, 47 [1872] see Exhibit F.

5. It is clearly documented that the effective date of the quasi/constitution was repealed November 8, 1960.

6. Virtually the entire quasi/constitution of 1879 was repealed and replaced from 1949 through 1976 without any lawful authority. The Plaintiff can find no source of any lawful authority to "repeal", whether it be in the quasi/constitution of 1879 or the organic Constitution for the State of California of 1849.

7. There is a fundamental, indisputable difference between the act of "amending" and the act of "repealing".

7a. Amend. To Improve. To change for the better by removing defects or faults. To
change, correct, revise. Black's Law Dictionary, 6th Edition.

7b. Repeal. The abrogation or annulling of a previously existing law ... . To revoke, abolish, annul, to rescind, or abrogate by authority. Black's Law Dictionary, 6th Edition.

8. The following is a listing of the great majority of repealing that took place which was beyond any authority to "amend" or "revise" if the quasi/constitution of 1879 was actually lawfully in effect.

9. In addition the fact presented hereinabove concerning the specific and limited authorization to vote for the adoption of the quasi/constitution of 1879, the fact of the "repealing" is hereby submitted as evidence that the quasi/constitution of 1879 was not, is not, and cannot have any lawful effect as the valid "Constitution for the State of California".
