Sovereign Citizen Gets 30 Days After Arguing With Judge

A Michigan courtroom quickly turns chaotic when a defendant facing felony charges tries using sovereign citizen arguments instead of cooperating with the judge. Judge Simpson wastes no time shutting down the disruptions after repeated interruptions, refusal to answer simple questions, and bizarre claims involving trusts and social security numbers. The defendant, charged with fleeing and eluding, assaulting an officer, and driving with a suspended license, insists he is not the person named in the court documents. Things only get worse after the judge repeatedly warns him about contempt before finally ordering 30 days in jail. This courtroom exchange is another example of how internet legal theories can completely fall apart inside a real courtroom. This video is shared for educational and commentary purposes only.
