Academic Paper about Pseudolaw

Source; see below

Donald Netolitzky had published recently "Organized Pseudolegal Commercial Arguments ["OPCA"] as Magic and Ceremony" in the Alberta Law Review. We hope the readers of this blog will find it interesting -- one example he gives of such pseudolaw is the "Moorish Law Affidavit" in the picture above. The article is great fun, and is surely one of the first academic articles (if not the first) which cites Quatloos! as a source...  the abstract notes:

This article discusses ways in which Organized Pseudolegal Commercial Arguments (OPCA) litigants use pseudolegal concepts, techniques, and procedures before the courts. The author begins by looking at where OPCA legal arguments originate, and the historical sources where these arguments find grounding, while assessing the flaws in such. A thorough analysis is then conducted into some of the tactics used by OPCA litigants in order to evade legal consequences, including a survey of global case law where these arguments have been brought before the courts. The article culminates with an analysis of the implications of the use of pseudolaw by OPCA litigants and how tactics permeate through OPCA movements, while looking for solutions in dealing with OPCA litigants as they move through the courts.
