Description

Sovereign citizen Steven Coons attempts to pay off a $15,000 bail bond debt using a fake IRS letter, leading to a summary judgment. Aladdin Bail Bonds filed a motion for summary judgment to recover fees after a bailed individual absconded. Coons appeared with an unlicensed consultant, arguing he was not the "person" named and claiming his debt was satisfied via an IRS offset letter. The judge rejected the sovereign citizen arguments and entered a formal financial judgment in favor of the plaintiff.
