In Re Ronald Freeman

Tens of millions of persons have been deprived of their liberty for violating marijuana criminal and civil laws that proscribed marijuana. All detained had standing to question the validity of those laws. Liberty no longer means freedom from physical restraint. The Court’s substantive due process is to determine the meaning, the substance of liberty, a liberty interest that is historical and traditional, where democracy rules. Marijuana, is not a liberty interest to be fundamental, therefore a political question, rational police power.

1. Whether being in federal “detention,” is a substantial denial of Ronald Freeman’s constitutional right of liberty, freedom from physical restraint, an Article III case and controversy, standing, grounds for an Extraordinary Writ of Habeas corpus to inquire into the cause of his detention.

2. Whether, under strict scrutiny judicial review, the United States Congress did not have compelling reasons to proscribe marijuana as a dangerous controlled substance (a drug trafficking crime) therefore without due process of law, contravening Amendments IV and V of the Constitution of the United States, therefore invalid, an unconstitutional act of Congress.

3. Whether a party imprisoned under a sentence of a United States court, upon conviction of a crime created by and indictable under an unconstitutional act of Congress, should be discharged from imprisonment by this Court on habeas corpus.
