The sovereign citizen movement is not new, but it has recently gained momentum. These individuals reject government authority and believe they are not subject to federal or local laws. Their philosophy often leads to direct confrontations with law enforcement and the judicial system.

American courts now frequently encounter cases involving sovereign citizens. These individuals attempt to defend their actions by invoking their own interpretations of the law and declaring their independence from the government. However, judges and prosecutors work diligently to dismantle these arguments, reaffirming the authority of the law.

In his analyses, Jesse Weber highlights several cases where individuals have tried to defend themselves by declaring their sovereign citizenship. These cases often illustrate the futility of this strategy in court. Judges consistently reject these arguments, and the defendants face the legal consequences of their actions.
