NOTICE
This notice is issued to formally record prior notice already given and to require proof of claim, authority, and standing before any further action is taken.
1. Prior Notice
You are already on notice that the activities and property concerned are subject to a private trust arrangement under non-disclosure, and that this position was communicated:
– directly to MPI investigators (including Robin Peake),
– during interviews and meetings associated with coordinated enforcement actions,
– and in meetings attended by MPI staff (including a meeting involving a person identified as “Rebecca”).
Accordingly, knowledge is established. Any suggestion of ignorance or implied consent is denied.
2. Proof of Claim Required
Before any further enforcement, reliance, retention of property, or escalation, you are required to produce documentary proof of the following:
a. Standing and jurisdiction relied upon in respect of the trust, its beneficiaries, and associated property;
b. Lawful authority for enforcement actions taken after notice of private trust and non-disclosure status;
c. Evidence of any alleged contract, consent, or agreement relied upon (express or implied);
d. Any evidence-based safety risk assessment, including:
– the specific risk identified,
– the evidence relied upon,
– proportionality analysis,
– alternatives considered and rejected;
e. Decision-making records identifying who authorised escalation, and on what basis.
Absent production of the above, no authority is admitted.
3. Standstill Required
Pending production of the above proof, you are required to:
– Cease and stand down from further enforcement actions;
– Refrain from reliance on unproven assumptions of authority or jurisdiction;
– Refrain from further seizure, retention, or interference with property.
4. Continuing Loss
You are on notice that:
– property and equipment have been seized and retained,
– productive capacity and food security have been impaired,
– elders (including persons aged 89 and approximately 65) have been adversely affected,
– loss is ongoing and continuing.
Any further action without proof will compound compensable loss.
5. Reservation
This notice is issued for record-keeping and risk management purposes only.
All rights are expressly reserved.
