Notice to the Public Record
Date of Issue: On the 21st day of April in the year 2026
Reference: Deos Terrum – Crown Grant Land – Public Record Notice – 21 April 2026
1. Purpose
Jillian, a living woman, holder of the full fee simple estate in the Land known as Deos Terrum both at law and in equity, issues this Public Notice to place upon the public record the service of two formal instruments delivered 20 April 2026 to officers of the Crown acting in their executive capacity in Western Australia. This Notice does not seek a response. It is issued solely to establish, transparently and on the permanent public record, that the instruments described below have been served, that the constitutional questions they raise are live and unanswered, and that the record of challenge and institutional non-response in relation to the Land known as Deos Terrum continues to be maintained and built.
2. The Land
The land parcel now known as Deos Terrum, originally conveyed by Crown Grant by George the Fifth Reference: Register Book 1925, Certificate of Title Volume 890, Folio 68, Land Description: 67 acres and 34 perches or thereabouts being portion of Nelson Location 1597, then later described under “DUPLICATE CERTIFICATE OF TITLE” Volume 2708 Folio 412 (“LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA”: “SHIRE OF BOYUP BROOK”), – hereinafter “the Land”. The Land has been held under Imperial Crown Grant since 25 May 1925. The Crown Grant conveys a fee simple estate with express incidents including a peppercorn rent payable to the Crown, mineral reservations, and powers of resumption reserved exclusively to the Crown. Those incidents remain in full force. They have not been extinguished by any subsequent administrative conversion of the registration description.
Jillian holds the full fee simple estate in the Land both at law and in equity – at law by force of the Crown Grant and the unbroken chain of title derived from it, and in equity by force of notarised Deeds of Transfer formally executed before a Notary Public and served upon Landgate by Registered Mail RPP44 63900 05100 30538 53607 4 February 2026, upon which Landgate has to date, to our knowledge, failed to act.
3. Background
Since October 2022, formal notices have been served upon the “SHIRE OF BOYUP BROOK” ABN 95 583 688 034 demanding that it identify by what Crown authority it asserts jurisdiction over the Land and claims obligations from Jillian as holder of the fee simple estate. Those notices included a formal quo warranto challenge, a Notice of Default, a Notice of Estoppel, and a sworn Affidavit attesting to the complete sequence of challenge and non-response.
The “SHIRE OF BOYUP BROOK” (hereinafter “Shire”) has at no point demonstrated Crown authority over the Land. It has not identified the unbroken chain of authority from the Imperial Crown to itself. It has not shown that revenues it collects flow to the Consolidated Account of Western Australia. It has not produced sealed, judicially authenticated enforcement instruments. It has not produced practising certificate evidence for persons conducting enforcement proceedings. Its responses consist of continued assertion of obligations, demands for compliance, threats of legal action, and threats to seize and sell Land – without lawful answer to the constitutional questions formally placed before it.
The Shire is a body corporate constituted under the Local Government Act 1995 (WA). Section 1.6 of that Act provides in terms that the Act does not bind the Crown except to the extent expressly stated. The High Court confirmed unanimously in Chief Executive Officer, Aboriginal Areas Protection Authority v Director of National Parks [2024] HCA 16 that statutory corporations are not and never do become the Crown itself. The Shire is not the constitutionally correct recipient of any obligation arising under a Crown Grant, and is not the right type of entity to hold authority over land conveyed by Imperial Crown prerogative act.
In November 2024, following the complete failure of the Shire and any other body asserting authority over the Land to demonstrate any lawful Crown authority, a self-governing nation was formally proclaimed over the Land pursuant to Article 1 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, the Montevideo Convention on the Rights and Duties of States 1933, and the right of self-determination as confirmed by the Commonwealth Attorney-General’s Department Public Sector Guidance Sheet on the Right to Self-Determination. Since the proclamation, no body has produced Crown authority, judicial warrant, or any other lawful instrument establishing jurisdiction over the Land. No body has challenged the standing or validity of the proclamation. Not one.
4. Instrument 1 – Notice and Demand to John Newton acting in the office of the Minister for Planning and Lands
On 20 April 2026, a formal Notice and Demand was served upon John Newton, Carey, acting in the office of Minister for Planning and Lands, by email with server delivery details recorded.
The Notice raises the following principal matters:
(a) The attribution compatibility defect of the Shire – a body corporate that is not the right type of entity to hold authority over Imperial Crown Grant land, by reason of its express statutory separation from the Crown under s 1.6 of the Local Government Act 1995 (WA) and the unanimous decision of the High Court in [2024] HCA 16;
(b) The failure of Landgate – a body corporate established under the Land Information Authority Act 2006 (WA) – to carry forward the incidents of the Crown Grant upon administrative conversion of the registration description, and its further failure to record notarised Deeds of Transfer formally served upon it by registered mail;
(c) The constitutional question arising from s 64 of the Constitution Acts Amendment Act 1899 (WA) – specifically whether rates collected by a non-Crown body corporate from Crown Grant land constitute revenues of the Crown required to flow to the Consolidated Account, and if not, by what authority that body retains those revenues in a private “municipal fund”;
(d) The wrongful silence of the Shire – its knowledge of Jillian’s position, its silence in the face of that knowledge: Taylor v Johnson (1983) 151 CLR 422;
(e) The Calderbank consequence on the record – that every cost, burden, and detriment arising from this engagement falls upon the institution whose failure to answer caused it: Commonwealth v Verwayen [1990] HCA 39; (1990) 170 CLR 394;
(f) The Judicial Election Clause – Jillian does not elect to bring proceedings. If any institution maintains a claim against Jillian in relation to the Land, it must bring that claim before a court of competent jurisdiction constituted under Chapter III of the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Australia, being the Constitution set out in clause 9 of the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act 1900 (Imp). The full record travels with it;
(g) The proclamation of Deos Terrum as a self-governing nation, and the request that the Crown confirm whether it asserts any authority inconsistent with that proclamation;
(h) A request for the EFT banking details of the Consolidated Account so that Jillian’s voluntary contribution may be remitted to the Crown directly.
A substantive response has been requested within twenty-eight (28) days of service.
The Notice further encloses Annexure DA – Mutual Disclosure of Affiliations, Oaths, and Allegiances – requiring execution by John Newton and all agents, representatives, and advisors acting in this matter within ten (10) clear days of service.
5. Instrument 2 – Letter to Rita acting in the office of Treasurer of Western Australia
On same day, 20 April 2026, a letter tendering a voluntary contribution to the Consolidated Account of Western Australia was served upon Rita, Saffioti, acting in the office of Treasurer of Western Australia, by email with server delivery details recorded.
The letter tenders a contribution directly to the Crown’s Consolidated Account under s 8(3) of the Financial Management Act 2006 (WA) as the constitutionally correct recipient of any revenue arising from or attributable to the Crown Grant over the Land. The amount has been determined by Jillian as a fair and reasonable contribution to the genuine costs of public administration in the district. It is not derived from and bears no relation to any figure asserted by the Shire or any other body.
The tender is held in trust by Jillian, ready to be remitted to the Crown immediately upon receipt of EFT banking details for the Consolidated Account. The tender having been made, the obligation to facilitate its receipt rests with the Crown. Jillian’s readiness to render is established and on the record from the date of service, 20 April 2026.
The letter raises the following principal matters:
(a) The constitutional basis for the tender – that s 64 of the Constitution Acts Amendment Act 1899 (WA) establishes the Consolidated Account as the repository of all revenues of the Crown, and that any revenue arising from Crown Grant land belongs constitutionally in that account, not in the “municipal fund” of a non-Crown body corporate;
(b) The attribution compatibility defect of the Shire as a non-Crown body corporate that is not the right type of entity to collect revenue from Crown Grant land;
(c) A request for confirmation that the peppercorn rent obligation defined in the Crown Grant constitutes the only obligation the Crown itself attached to the Land, and that this contribution satisfies that obligation;
(d) A request that Rita, acting in the office of Treasurer, identify the specific provision of law by which any non-Crown body corporate holds authority to collect revenue from Crown Grant land in substitution for or in addition to the Crown’s own revenue rights, if the Treasurer’s position is that this contribution does not satisfy all obligations properly owing to the Crown.
A substantive response has been requested within twenty-eight (28) days of service.
