PLEA IN BAR AND DEMAND

AND TRUE BILL IN COMMERCE 

OF NECESSITY 

By: Winston Shrout, as Real Party in Interest, 3rd Party Interest Intervenor under Injury, Sole 

Shareholder in WINSTON SHROUT, Settlor/Beneficiary of WINSTON SHROUT 401643573 

COMES NOW Winston Shrout, a Real Party in Interest, 3rd Party Interest Intervenor under 

Injury, Sole Shareholder in WINSTON SHROUT, Settlor and Beneficiary of WINSTON 

SHROUT 401643573, who is neutral in the public, who is unschooled in law, and making a 

special appearance before this court under the supplemental rules of Admiralty, Rule E(8), a 

restricted appearance, without granting jurisdiction, and notices the court of enunciation of 

principles as stated in Haines v.Kerner. 404 U.S. 519, wherein the court has directed that those 

who are unschooled in law making pleadings and/or complaints shall have the court look to the 

substance of the pleadings rather in than the form, and hereby makes the following 

pleadings/notices in the above referenced matter without waiver of any other defenses. 

PLEA IN BAR 

20. Plea in bar, is one that denies that the plaintiff has any cause of action. 1 Ch. Pl. 459 Co. Litt. 

303 b; 6 Co. 7. Or it is one which shows some ground for barring or defeating the action; and 

makes prayer to that effect, Steph. Pl. 70; Britton, 92. See Bar. 

21. A plea in bar is, therefore, distinguished from all pleas of the dilatory class, as impugning the 

right of the action altogether, instead of merely tending to divert the proceedings to another 

jurisdiction, or suspend them, or abate the particular writ. It is in short a substantial and 

conclusive answer to the action. It follows, from this property, that in general, it must either deny 

all, or some essential part of the averments of fact in the declaration; or, admitting them to be 

true, allege new facts, which obviate and repel their legal effect. In the first case the defendant is 

said, in the language of pleading, to traverse the matter of the declaration; in the latter, to confess 

Case 3:15-cr-00438-JO Document 23-1 Filed 03/25/16 Page 1 of 4
and avoid it. Pleas in bar are consequently divided into pleas by way of traverse, and pleas by 

way of confession and avoidance. Steph. Pl. 70, 71. 

Bouviers Law Dictionary, pg. 599 

Note: Winston Shrout as a Real Party in Interest, 3rd Party Interest Intervenor under Injury, Sole 

Shareholder in WINSTON SHROUT, Settlor and Beneficiary of WINSTON SHROUT 

401643573, did answer the Plaintiff's complaint using specific negative averment which if 

successfully rebutted would confirm Plaintiff's allegations. But failure of Plaintiff to 

successfully rebut the specific negative averment would indicate the exact purpose and 

justification of a Plea in Bar as the Plaintiff would demonstrate that it has no cause of action and 

is no/le prosequi and hence the court on its own motion must dismiss the case. 

DEMAND FOR WRITTEN BILL OF PARTICULARS 

This demand for a written bill of particulars is in conjunction with the Plea in Bar as Winston 

Shrout as a Real Party in Interest, 3rd Party Interest Intervenor under Injury, Sole Shareholder in 

WINSTON SHROUT, Settlor and Beneficiary of WINSTON SHROUT 401643573 was victim 

of a secret grand jury proceeding where accusations were made against his estate without the 

opportunity to be heard in the matter. This is tantamount to a 'star chamber' proceeding whereas 

a decision was apparently made by the Fore-person of the Grand Jury who returned a True Bill to 

the attorney for Plaintiff based on incomplete and one-sided information. 

A "True Bill", as the title implies is a commercial document as all "bills" [indicating money 

owed] naturally are which gives rise to the next section on TRUE BILL IN COMMERCE by 

Winston Shrout as 3rd Party Interest Intervenor Under Injury. 

Winston Shrout who is not a resident of the jurisdiction in question and who is not a US Citizen 

as defined by the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution has made this demand for a bill of 

particulars so at the very least he can know the nature and cause of this Indictment, and so that he 

can determine the extent of the injury to his estate and calculate the damages. 

Reference: NOTICE OF ASSIGNMENT OF REVERSIONARY INTEREST AND STATUS 

filed into Case No. 3:15-cr-00438-JO on 3 Feb 16, in particular Exhibits A-K. 

TRUE BILL IN COMMERCE 

Commercial crimes. Any of the following types of crimes (Federal or State): Offenses against 

the revenue laws; burglary; counterfeiting; forgery; kidnapping; larceny; robbery; illegal sale or 

possession of deadly weapons; prostitution (including soliciting, procuring, pandering, white 

slaving, keeping house of ill fame, and like offenses); extortion; swindling and confidence 

games; and attempting to commit, conspiring to commit, or compounding any of the foregoing 

crimes. Addiction to narcotic drugs and use of marihuana will be treated as if such were 

commercial crime. 27 CFR 72.11

Case 3:15-cr-00438-JO Document 23-1 Filed 03/25/16 Page 2 of 4
All federal charges as offenses against the USC has a penal sum attached of Two-hundred and 

fifty-thousand ($250,000) dollars. To tally up the penal value of the charges of which there are 

nineteen (19) alleged comes to Four-million seven-hundred and fifty-thousand ($4,750,000) 

which is being attempted to be taken from the estate of Winston Shrout. 

Winston Shrout strongly suspects that the Clerk of the USDC has already made a draw at the 

back office of the US Treasury, and may have even issued the GSA bonds 24, 25, and 25a, or 

similar Miller Act Bonds. These are acts of thievery of the estate belonging to Winston Shrout 

without the express consent of Winston Shrout as the only settlor of WINSTON SHROUT. 

Therefore a True Bill in Commerce is issued by Winston Shrout as a partial recoupment of funds 

belonging to the estate. Using the Old Testament of the King James Bible as a guide, three times 

punitive for the injury is justified. 

CORPUS JURIS SECUNDUM 

Section 16, Page 892: 

FACT OF DEATH: Death of the person on whose estate administration is sought is a jurisdiction 

requisite; and while the presumption of death arising from absence may present a prima facie 

case sufficient to warrant a grant of administration, yet if it subsequently develops that such 

person was in fact alive, the administration is void. 

While it is true that the presumption of death arising from a person's absence, unheard from, for 

a considerable length of time, see "Death Section 6", may present a prima facie case sufficient to 

warrant a grant of administration on his estate, the arising of such presumption does not take the 

case out of the operation of the general rule on the subject, and if it is made to appear that the 

person was in fact alive at the time such administration was granted, the administration is 

absolutely void. Although, that payment to an administrator of an absentee who is not in fact 

dead is no defense against the absentee or his legal representative, nor are costs and disbursement 

incurred by such administrator a legal charge against the absentee or his property; but where the 

administrator has paid debts of the absentee, he is subrogated to the rights of the creditors whom 

he has paid. It has been considered, however, that the invalidity of the administration does not 

relate back, but that it is invalid only the time when the presumption of death is rebutted. 

Note: It is obvious that Winston Shrout is alive having appeared in the USDC in this matter on 

at least two occasions and all in attendance saw him walk in and heard him speak. For any sane 

man to conclude that he is 'dead' or 'absent' or 'unheard from' is purely ludicrous. 

Therefore, any administration of his estate, WINSTON SHROUT, is VOID. Any attempts by 

any party to administer his estate is pure thievery. Winston Shrout takes his remedy in this 

matter with a TRUE BILL IN COMMERCE.
