  CANON  
  From ancient Greek κανών (kanón) meaning "measuring rod, standard for carpentry/building". Hence, a literal translation from ancient Greek is as the "carpenter's standard"--an obvious association to the false claim of Jesus being a carpenter as first created by the ROMAN CULT into CATHOLIC CHURCH liturgy from the 12th Century onwards. The word pre-dates its use in ancient Greek back to Hebrew קנה (qaneh) = "reed" and Akkadian qanū = "reed". In common legal usage, a "canon" represents a law of the CATHOLIC CHURCH.  
   
  CANON LAW  
  The false LAWS and forgeries first formed by the ROMAN CULT from the 12th Century onwards that now constitute the highest laws of the CATHOLIC CHURCH and COMMON LAW. The name "Canon Law" literally translates as "the law of the Carpenter"-- --an obvious association to the false claim of Jesus being a carpenter as first created by the ROMAN CULT into CATHOLIC CHURCH liturgy from the 12th Century onwards. As Christians claim Jesus to be the Son of God and highest SOVEREIGN BODY, by default Canon Law by its name alone claims superior STATUS above all other LAW.  
   
  CAPITUS DIMINUTIO MAXIMA  
  19th Century Latin forgery deliberately introduced into early LAW DICTIONARIES to protect the use of UPPER CASE naming and discourage its wider practice. The phrase claims the meaning "The highest, most comprehensive loss of status through CAPITALIZATION" and attributes this to the alleged ancient pre-Vatican Roman Law of naming slaves in CAPITALS. Contrary to misleading historical accounts, bicameral scripts (UPPER CASE and LOWER CASE) known as MAJUSCULE and MINUSCULE did not officially appear in European languages until the arrival of the printing press in the 15th Century, nor did the word CAPITAL have its meaning in terms of letters.  
   
  CAPITUS DIMINUTIO MINIMA  
  19th Century Latin forgery deliberately introduced into early LAW DICTIONARIES to protect the use of UPPER CASE naming and discourage its wider practice. The phrase claims the meaning "The lowest, minimal loss of status through non-CAPITALIZATION" and attributes this to the alleged ancient pre-Vatican Roman Law of bicameral scripting (UPPER CASE and LOWER CASE) known as MAJUSCULE and MINUSCULE. However, pre-Vatican controlled Rome did not have a formal bicameral script system, only inscription capitals and everyday cursive in which no formal rules for capitalization applied. Under CASE LAW, UPPER CASE names carry special privileges and powers, hence lower case names carry little or no authority--the complete opposite to the meaning of the forgery.  
     
     
  CASE  
  From ancient Latin casus meaning literally "chance, ill fortune". In COMMON LAW, the name of a legal proceeding.  
     
  CASE LAW  
  From colloquial English, the name given to the general body of rules of law, judicial opinions and even administrative regulations as recorded and recognized by the COURTS.  
   
  CAVEAT  
  "Beware/take care" - An entry in the court records that effectively prevents action by another party without first notifying the party entering the Caveat.  
     
  CERTIFIED COPY  
  Copy of a document signed and certified as a true copy of an original by the Clerk of the Court or other authorized persons (e.g., lawyer).  
     
  CERTIFICATE  
  From 14th Century Latin certificare meaning literally "to give permission, suffer in dispute/contention". From Latin certo = "to contend, settle, dispute, to settle by combat" and facio= "to give permission / to experience, suffer (troubles)". In modern legal terms, "a document containing a certified statement, or evidencing ownership or debt".  
   
  CHATTEL  
  article of personal property  
   
  CHARTER  
  From 13th Century Latin charta meaning "highest officially sanctioned paper/map/tablet". From pre-3rd Century Greek khartes meaning "official document of papyrus" and possibly even ancient Egyptian. The word "charter" both represents the highest of official documents both in authority and construction. For a document to be considered a charter, it is traditionally to be constructed from fine velum (animal skin). For the most senior of Roman Cult documents there is even evidence that the ink used was a mixture of ink and blood--hence the preference of a charter to be written in red as opposed to black. A charter begins with the INCIPIT --the opening phrase which announces the document. It ends with the DATUM --as to its place and date of signature all on one continuous single document/scroll/tablet. In many cases, a charter is then sealed with a BULLA (metal/clay seal). A PAPAL BULL is a form of charter.  
     
  CHARTERED COMPANY  
  From the combined words CHARTER and COMPANY meaning literally "the highest officially sanctioned paper granting exclusive rights to a body of men chained to the ring of the Papacy". As some Protestant sovereigns issued Royal CHARTERS without the authority of the Vatican, only Papal authorised Chartered Companies were permitted to claim the full effect of ROMAN LAW within their exclusive JURISDICTION using the abbreviation SS. to denote the authority of the HOLY SEE on official documents. Today, both valid Chartered Companies (using their right to print SS. on official documents) exist as well as invalid Chartered Companies with inferior legal rights according to ROMAN LAW.  
     
  CITATION  
  1) summons to appear; 2) reference to authorities in support of an argument  
     
  CLAIM
  From 14th Century Latin clamo/clamare meaning "to make an ORAL DECLARATION" . The generic definitions "call, shout, cry aloud" commonly attached to the word are all deliberately misleading and not its true and original legal definition. Prior to the corrupted legal concepts of the Roman Cult, the proper ancient Roman legal word was indico = "to proclaim, make publicly known, announce, disclose". In the 18th Century the procedural meaning was added = "a written legal demand (declaration) for compensation or damages". In spite of this contradictory legal definition, by its earliest and true meaning, a "claim" is only valid when spoken.  
     
  COMMON  
  From 13th Century Latin communis meaning "to entrust, commit to a burden, public duty, service or obligation". Created from the combination of two ancient pre-Vatican Latin words com/comitto = "to entrust, commit" and munis = "burden, public duty, service or obligation". From its earliest creation by the College of Abbreviators of the ROMAN CULT, the word has literally implied "willing CONSENT to public order and control over the many". The word acquired its historical meaning as an insult by nobles and clergy against "the ignorant and uneducated"-- especially trades people and woman --from the 14th Century at the time it was first used to describe the Commons "the third estate of the English people as represented in Parliament" from 1377. The word has since retained both its assumed meaning as "representing in general, the public, by all or many" as well as a term of insult by the wealthy and elite against the public ever since.  
   
  COMMON LAW  
 

From 14th Century English usage following the formation of the Commons "the third estate of the English people as represented in Parliament" from 1377. Therefore, the popular (but incorrect) assumed meaning of Common Law as being "the LAW of the people". In a strict literal sense, the correct etymological meaning of common law is more accurately defined as "the laws to entrust, commit to a burden, public duty, service or obligation" -- completely opposite to the popular misinterpretation of the phrase. The main procedural foundations of Common Law since its inception remains the false Roman Law was VENETIAN LAW (more commonly known as MARITIME LAW and/or ADMIRALTY LAW) introduced in the 12th and early 13th Century during the creation of the highest legal PERSONALITY under Common Law--the HOLY SEE (Sea). Hence, under the corrupted Roman Law of the ROMAN CULT living men and women are considered VESSELS subject to JURISDICTION of the SEE (Sea) with the WATERMARK of all nations with diplomatic recognition (CONCORDATS) of the SEE (Sea) set at the highest mountain peaks--hence all land is therefore "Under the Sea" and PROPERTY of the SEE (Sea). However, in many JURISICTIONS, CUSTOM LAW is also accepted as part of Common Law thus providing some RELIEF. In the late 16th and early 17th Century, Common Law was further modified with the introduction of the LEGAL FICTIONS, LEGAL PROCEDURE and PRECEDENT embedded in Jesuit constructed works embedded in popular culture and plays. Today, Common Law is incorrectly and deliberately defined as "The law established, by precedent, from judicial decisions and established within a community".

 
   
  COMPANY  
  From 13th Century Latin companio meaning "a body of (normally) Jewish servants bonded to a vassal of the Vatican under the rules of SERVI CAMERAE REGIS and USURY". Contrary to the deliberately false etymology attributed to the word, it is constructed from two ancient Latin words compes = "fetters, shackles, chained" and ani = "ring" meaning literally "chained to the ring (of the Pope)". The word first acquired its military meaning in the 16th Century only after it was deliberately used as the official name of the Jesuits (Company of Jesus). From the 17th Century onwards, the word became a key component of title of business ventures as a CHARTERED COMPANY --with many of the 1st being influenced/created by the Jesuits.  
   
  COMPANION  
  From 13th Century Latin companioneo meaning "a trusted fellow, mate of a COMPANY". From Latin companio + neo = "to spin, thread, interweave". Contrary to deliberately false etymology the word literally means "threaded to a COMPANY". Initially applied only to (normally) Jewish servants BONDED under the rules of SERVI CAMERAE REGIS and USURY. By the 15th Century, the word acquired its nautical meanings as "framework on the quarterdeck, covering or hatchway". Its 1st historic use to mean "friend, acquaintance or partner" was with the Jesuits describing themselves in the 16th Century.  
     
  COMPOS MENTIS  
  "Of sound mind" - Legally fit to conduct/defend proceedings  
   
  CONCORDAT  
  From 13th Century Latin concordia = "agreement, union", from earlier Latin concordis = "of the same mind". A formal agreement between the Roman Cult and a state representing an international treaty taking precedence over previous domestic statutes (laws). Unlike normal international treaties that cease to have effect once one or more signatory parties rescind the agreement, a Concordat can only legally be ended once the Roman Cult agrees to withdraw it, or replace it with a new one. A Concordat may be formally known by the public as such, or by a host of different titles. Furthermore, a Concordat may also be kept private between a Government and the public as in the case of the Secret US Concordat of 1984.  
   
  CONSENT  
  From 13th Century Latin consentire = "An agreement to something proposed" from earlier Latin con-"with, together" and sentio "judge, suppose, vote". It may be by voice, in writing or legally implied by silence (since silence legally implies consent).  
   
  CONSTITUTION  
  From Latin constituo : to arrange, decide, appoint, settle, found, set up.  
   
  CONTRACT  
  From 14th Century Latin contractus meaning "to make a plea or bargain which is legally enforceable". From the combination of pre 8th Century Latin words con="A disadvantage of something/or someone" and tractus= "to extract/pull something". Therefore the literal meaning of contract is more accurately "to extract a disadvantage for someone/something". By the 16th Century, the inherit "one-sided" nature of contract was further blurred with the additional meaning "an AGREEMENT that is legally binding".  
   
  CORPORATE  
  From 14th Century Latin corporatus meaning "a body formed by CHARTER having legal PERSONALITY". From the ancient pre 3rd Century Latin corpus = "body". Not to be confused with a COMPANY which has always denoted ultimate ownership by the Roman Cult. In contrast, the first GUILDS established were Corporates. Today, the word Corporate is mistakenly considered synonymous with COMPANY.  
   
  CORPORATION  
  From 18th Century English corporation meaning "INCORPORATED COMPANY for doing business". Unlike a CORPORATE or a COMPANY, the invention of the legal fiction known as a CORPORATION permitted a body to use the pre-existing CHARTER of a superior COMPANY to register as a subsidiary--effectively eliminating the need for a new and unique CHARTER to be drawn for each and every new body. In addition, Corporations were permitted to register their own subsidiaries, creating potentially long chains of bodies all belonging to superior entities until the final entity holding a valid CHARTER. Today, over 99% of CORPORATES and COMPANIES are actually subsidiary Corporations of subsidiary Corporations themselves having no original CHARTER, but holding legal rights by virtue of being a REGISTERED SUBSIDIARY of a body ultimately holding a valid recognized CHARTER.  
   
  CREDITOR  
 

A person to whom money is owed by a debtor

 
     
  CULPA IN CONTRAHENDO  
  A Latin expression of LAW meaning "obligations in negotiation".
