United States of America et al.  }
                 Respondent      } 

Petitioner Coy Patriot et al., hereby files his Return to Show Cause Order to the Rule to Show Cause of the Honorable G. Ross Anderson, USDJ-DCSC dated October 23rd, 2006 based on the following reasons:

1. On January 20, 2006 Patriot filed his Petition to Quash Third-Party Summons and subsequent discovery. On October 23, 2006 Judge Anderson found “that Rule 11 sanctions may be warranted” for these pleading.

2. These pleadings with very little changes have been filed in Federal Court hundreds of times. In the District Court of South Carolina, identical pleading such as this have been filed probably over a hundred times. The first petition of this type was filed in Spartanburg SC roughly in 1977 for Dr. John Tate.

No Federal Court has ever suggested that these pre-packaged pleading were incorrect procedurally or otherwise. In fact, the other Federal Judges prefer these standard pleadings and would much rather see these pleading than the frivolous messes filed by most litigants classified as “Tax Protestors”.

3. These pleading are defiantly not frivolous and Rule 11 is not warranted under any circumstances. Therefore, the courts sua sponte motion for sanctions should be denied.

4. If the pleading were somehow considered frivolous and repetitive, then Rule 11 punishment still should not be granted because Patriot had no notice or warning that these pleading would be classified as unwarranted by any Federal Court.

In the other cases where the Federal Courts granted Rule 11 fees and cost, the litigant had ample notice that their positions were frivolous and unacceptable. In the other cases, the so-called “Tax Protestors” had used pleadings which had been declared frivolous and repetitive in many other cases and the litigates had knowledge beforehand.

In the other cases, the offending party had notice, but Please did not. Patriot agrees not to file or use any pleading that any court has declared frivolous or unwarranted.

5. Patriot is an American citizen and has the right of the courts and due process of the law. Under IRC 7609, Patriot has a statutory right to file a petition to halt the invasion of his financial privacy by a Federal Agency.

6. Therefore Patriot request that this court not grant any sanctions against him as a pro se litigant with no legal education.

Certificate of Service: I do hereby certify that on this date I mailed properly a copy of this pleading to opposing counsel.
