Need a McKenzie Friend? A McKenzie friend assists a litigant in person in a common law court.
A McKenzie friend assists a litigant in person in a common law court.
This person does not need to be legally qualified. The crucial point
is that litigants in person are entitled to have assistance, lay or
professional, unless there are exceptional circumstances. Their role
was set out most clearly in the eponymous 1970 case McKenzie v. McKenzie[1] Although this role applies in the jurisdiction of England and Wales, it is regarded as having its origins in common law
and hence has been adopted in practice in other common law
jurisdictions such as Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the USA.

Understanding your right to a McKenzie Firend's help as a self-represented Party
McKenzie friends
Right to have an assistant sitting with you. These notes explain what “McKenzie friends” are and what
is their legal basis. They should not normally be needed, but may be worth taking to court if you are
representing yourself and plan to use a McKenzie friend, in case your right to have one is challenged by
the court. Background: what are McKenzie friends?
If you are a defendant and are representing yourself in court (i.e. you are not using a solicitor to represent
you), you are entitled to have someone sit next to you. She can take notes, offer advice (in whispers)

Guidance from the President’s Office- McKenzie Friends
Guidance from the President’s Office- McKenzie Friends
• Where proceedings are held in open court, it is clear from the principles set
out in Court of Appeal decisions1 that a litigant who is not legally represented
has the right to have reasonable assistance from a layperson, sometimes
called a McKenzie Friend (“MF”).
• A litigant in person wishing to have the help of a MF should be allowed to do
so unless the judge is satisfied that fairness and the interests of justice do not
so require. The presumption in favour of permitting a MF is a strong one.2
• A litigant in person should inform

The RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY, ie: that
Dear Fellow Freedom Fighters,
"NO JURIES - NO JUSTICE" are the words spoken to conclude a video made by the NSW Attorney-General's Department, about 20 years ago, to act as information to People who are summoned to Jury Duty.
How tragically removed those words are now, from the direction our Courts have taken.
The RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY, ie: that "PALLADIUM OF LIBERTY", that "BULWARK OF FREEDOM", the very ESSENCE OF JUSTICE, is no more.
But TRIAL BY JURY IS DEMOCRACY !
What has happened to DEMOCRACY....to PEOPLE RULE ?
The RULE of the PEOPLE by the PEOPLE and for the

This is NOT TRUE. Therefore , the ARREST was UNLAWFUL I did make an appearance….a special appearance….at the Burwood Local Court on 30/07/2008. I have a copy of the transcript of that occasion when I demanded my inalienable Right to Trial by Jury and C.
I was arrested by two Police officers from Castle Hill Police Station on the morning of 20th August 2008. I was transported (without a seatbelt inside a plastic box on the back of a Police vehicle) to castle Hill Police Station where I was fingerprinted, photographed, locked in a glass cell, etc. I was then transported the same way to Hornsby Local Court and imprisoned in the cells, there, brought before a Magistrate who directed I be transported to Burwood Local Court. Before going the Burwood Local Court I was imprisoned in Silverwater Gaol overnight and locked in a cell in the hospital, there.

Sharia law thin edge of wedge
By Salim Mansur Toronto Sun 7-12-8
In How Democracies Perish published during the late Cold War years, Jean-Francois Revel, French political philosopher, offered a rich meditation that remains compelling in the post-9/11 world of Islamist terror and rampage against the West. Revel wrote about the paradox of democracy when facing an internal enemy -- as were the communists with their totalitarian agenda -- since his "right to exist is written into the law itself." This is how Revel explained the dilemma: "Democracy can defend itself only very feebly; its internal

Is Your Government Going to Protect You?

On the verge of exposing a police-run narcotics ring in Durham, Ontario, Loper was discovered by the ring and imprisoned for four years on extorted charges. Denied his rights to U.S. Consulate protection under the Vienna Convention, Loper was tortured to the point where he often questioned his ability to make it out alive. Those he had been about to expose were after the evidence - audio and video recordings Loper had made of their

Thomas Jefferson warning the newly formed United States of America that the Judiciary would destroy their nation.
Dear Fellow Australians,
Thomas Jefferson warning the newly formed United States of America that the Judiciary would destroy their nation. This is what he said in 1801, “The germ of destruction of our nation is in the power of the judiciary, an irresponsible body - working like gravity by night and by day, gaining a little today and a little tomorrow, and advancing its noiseless step like a thief over the field of jurisdiction, until all shall render powerless the checks of one branch over the other and will become as venal and oppressive as the government from which we separated.”.

EZRA LEVANT answers basic questions on the inner workings of the Byzantine "Human Rights" Kangaroo Courts in Orwellian Canada
Dear Friends:
One of the subscribers to our news ministry, an astute observer of the scene, asked me some basic questions about the murky operations of those byzantine, secretive organizations in Orwellian Canada with their Orwellian titles of "Human Rights" Commissions...I know something about these murky outfits but I ain't no authority on them...I am a mere messenger of important information but no authority on everything I convey...so, in turn, I asked a
