International Commercial Claim in Admiralty, Administrative Remedy

The Administrative Remedy Process

This INTERNATIONAL COMMERCIAL CLAIM IN ADMIRALTY - ADMINISTRATIVE REMEDY process was originally developed for use in mortgage matters, but it can be adapted for other uses. It is a non-judicial, private administrative way to bring your grievances up to whomever has harmed you, give them a chance to explain themselves and settle the matter on a ‘person-to-person’ basis.

An Administrative Remedy can be used by anyone to establish the facts of a matter and give parties on both sides of a disagreement an opportunity to state their 'case'. It involves no courts, judges, mediators or other public officials except for a notary public whose role is limited to acknowledging the acts done and serving as a witness.

There are 8 steps to the Remedy, most of which are served on the Libellees (those who you perceive as having damaged you) by a “Notary Acceptor”: a public officer commissioned by the Secretary of State, who is willing to act as a third party witness to your communications with the other parties and your good-faith efforts in exhausting your administrative remedies. Each of your documents is mailed to the Libellees by the notary using certified mail if domestic with a ‘green receipt card’ attached, which is the proof that the package reached it’s destination, was accepted, and will be returned to the notary. Registered mail was established by law, under the U.S. Constitution, and is recognized internationally, but our experience has found that it is disappointing for out-of-the-country mailings so we recommend Federal Express. If your process is entirely domestic, certified mail can be used.

The first 3 documents are Notices of the claim you are bringing against your adversary. In the first communication, statements are made which they are supposed to respond to. Should you be wrong in any of your statements, abundant opportunity for your adversary to correct your mistaken belief is given. If no response is made after communicating with them 3 times, your statements are deemed agreed with and settled. The initial Notice of claim also contains a True Bill which is the detail of your damages and a total of the amount you are demanding.

Document #4 is a Notice of Dishonor from the notary acceptor, certifying that s/he has not received any responses. Then starts your Demand for payment, which consists of 3 Notices (#5, 6 & 7). The 8th document is the Certificate of Dishonor (COD), a statement from the notary reciting the history of when each Notice was sent out, when the return receipt card came back, and whether or not there were any responses. The 4th and the 8th steps are notary’s documents to you. The 4th doc., Non-Response, is sent only to you. The 8th doc., the COD is sent to you with a courtesy copy to the Libellees via first class mail.

If you do not have a local notary willing to be the acceptor for you, we have 2 notaries on staff who can serve in that respect. You will need to have your signature notarized by a local notary on most of the documents. Using 2 notaries may actually make the documents ‘stronger’ as you have 2 officers of the state verifying your actions.
