Disgraced Pitchman Loses Bid to Toss Sex-Crimes Sentence- Courthouse News Service
quote:
A federal judge on Wednesday rejected an effort by Jared Fogle, the former face of Subway sandwiches, to overturn his conviction for traveling to engage in sex with a minor, filed on his behalf by a jailhouse lawyer.
Fellow inmate Frank Pate filed a motion for Fogle, claiming the court lacked jurisdiction over Fogle because of his status as a so-called “sovereign citizen.”
Pate is housed with Fogle at the Englewood Federal Correctional Institution in Littleton, Colo.
A sovereign citizen is someone who believes they are not governed by authorities or subject to laws.
In a two-page ruling on Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Tanya Pratt rejected Fogle’s challenge.
“If Fogle is now claiming to be ‘sovereign,’ the Seventh Circuit has rejected theories of individual sovereignty, immunity from prosecution, and their ilk,” Pratt wrote. “Regardless of his theory, Fogle’s challenge of this court’s jurisdiction is rejected.”

If you hear that term in a decision, you're screwed.

They didn't let him go? That always works in the police videos. I'm shocked.

Does this place ever have good publicity come out of there?

Damn, I had no idea Littleton had a prison.
Also, I'm laughing at the idea of Fogle and his cellmate coming up with this ridiculous argument.

Didn’t Fogle realize if the sovereign citizen defense worked his lawyer wouldn’t still be in jail?

I interned at the US Attorney’s office one summer and one of my tasks was to read and process the jail mail/pleadings to determine if it needed to go up the ladder.
You’d be surprised how clever some of them could be. Nothing but time and a law library.
