Subject: Notice of Request/Demand for Document Formally Recognizing Common-Law Religious “Exemption” from Municipal County Government Tax Collecting Activities; 
	& there-under, Request/Demand for “Refund” of Payment Tendered under Duress, under Municipal Tax Accounts of 058310520, 53900240, 59300239, 59206387. 

	Mr Varela, Mr Martinez, Ms Jacober , Mr Frazier, Ms Clarke, Mr O’Melia, & Mr Turner:

	Under the above-described Santa Fe County municipal governmental jurisdiction tax cases,  Public Servants in your Santa Fe County Assessor’s Office, & Treasurer’s Office, have been demanding that our Church Community submit regular tax payments to your municipal jurisdictions.  

	How-ever, & long ago;  the Leaders in our Church Community have communicated to those same municipal Public-Servants, our “Objection” to those demands for monetary payments;  all based on the well-settled doctrine of American & New Mexico State “Constitutional-Law”, to the effect, that, the Real-Properties of All legitimate Church Communities are Constitutionally “Exempt” from your municipal governmental organization’s tax-collecting activities. 
	Your municipal public-servants seem to have “Failed to Respond” in any meaningful manners to these previously asserted Objections to their municipal tax-collecting activities against us;  all of which seems to us to lawfully entitle our Church Community to something similar as a “Default Judgement” in our favor on this important issue.
	Please here-under note, that, if you officers might now unfortunately choose to similarly “Fail to  Respond” to the issues raised in this perhaps more clearly worded letter;  then, that, we now are here-by laying a lawful foundation for perhaps more formally & officially securing one or more of these “Default Judgements” as against your involved municipal tax-collecting officers. 
	Please, each & all of you; please respond promptly, point by point, to the issues raised in this letter to you.

	As we have discussed in previous communications with your offices;  please note again that, our Church Community provides many essential “Public-Services” to (especially the poor) People of Santa Fe County, & of the State of New Mexico;  & that this significantly reduces the net expenditures which each of your municipal government controlled treasuries become obligated to spend on these same Public-Services.  
	Of perhaps even greater significance, is the fact that our Church Community vigilantly uses the ancient & traditional Anglo/American “Christian Common-Law Methodology”, for Raising Funds to provide a multitude of these same Public Services;  all by way of asking for Voluntary “Tithing Donations” from the people in & surrounding our local Santa Fe County Community.  
	Our Church Community’s  Process here presents a significant Contrast to the similar mode of procedure from your municipal jurisdictions;  because, our Church Community’s Methodology for Fund-Raising is “Non-Coercive”.
	This is the “Reason Why” this common-law methodology for Fund-Raising for Essential Governmental Public-Services, is constitutionally recognizable as a form of “Higher-Law”, as compared against your (more coercive) “Municipal Fund-Raising Methodology”.  
	Because our Church Community works & Fund-Raises exclusively from under this Non-Coercive & & Higher-Law methodology;  the Tax Bills which your municipal jurisdiction’s officers routinely issue are Lawfully “Not Applicable” to us;   & this is the Constitutionally Lawful “Reason Why” our Church Community is Legitimately Recognizable as being “Exempt” from your constitutionally limited municipal tax-collecting jurisdiction & activities. 

	How-ever; our Church Community’s Officer’s previous efforts at Communicating these “Higher Laws” to the concerned Public Servants then in your municipal Public-Offices, seem to have Failed to accomplish their intended purpose;  & there-under, a “Notice of Auction” was issued by your municipal officers, to our Church Leadership;  all of which there-by lawlessly & coercively pressured our Church Leaders in-to submitting our afore-referenced payment to your offices, in the amount of $36,785.48 .  
	More specifically;  & again under the above-described Santa Fe County tax cases, & on the date of 19-June-2018;  our Church Community was un-constitutionally & un-lawfully pressured by your jurisdiction’s over-zealous municipal tax collecting  officers, to submit our payment to the Santa Fe County Treasurer’s Office, in the amount of $36,785.48 .  

	Further; there have been numerous smaller real-property tax-payments & donations that our Church Community has made to your municipal taxation officers;  all under similar forms of duress as was involved in that larger payment that we submitted to your municipal officers;  & we have come to believe that all of those payments to your officers, since the beginning of 2012, should rightfully & lawfully be returned to our Church Community; & we are here-by formally requesting that those funds be returned by your officers to our Church Community. 
	Our Church Community is here-by sending this letter to each & all of you;   & we are here-in (perhaps more clearly) expressing our more Formal & Lawful Requirement that you municipal office-holders now Issue &/or Utter to our Church Community, the following:
	1:	Some form of a Formal Document which Officially Recognizes that the Real-Property owned by our Church Community is Legitimately “Exempt” from your constitutionally limited municipal jurisdiction’s efforts at Raising Funds;
	2:	A full Refund of all payments made since the beginning of 2012 by our Church Community to your municipally controlled treasuries; & with that payment specifically including the previously referenced & coercively extorted $36,785.48 that we made to your officers.

	In further support of the Lawfulness of our here-in expressed Legitimate Requirements;  please find in accompaniment with this letter, certain supportive “Evidence”, in the form of copies of an assortment of Supportive Documents; entitled similarly as follows:
	Certification of Execution of an Unincorporated Organized Self-Supported Church Ministry, with Church Document with Articles of Incorporation & By-Laws; Mission Statement;  Deed showing Authorization to Use Property;  IRS Designation Letter; Flyer Showing Religious & Charitable Services;  Photographs; Membership Application Form.

	A further explanatory note here, is that, our Church Community has recently gained new members who are more skilled in the the more fundamental, spiritual, & religious aspects of “Constitutional Law” which relate to this jurisdictionally conflicted problem;  & here-under, we are now sending this (perhaps more clearly worded) statement of our case to your Public-Offices.
	We are further here-under, now perhaps more clearly informing each of you, as the present office-holders there-in, that, the above referenced past payment was un-lawfully, un-constitutionally, & coercively extorted from the treasury of our Church Community;  & that your officers there-in have an Official “Duty”, as Public-Servants, to promptly Refund that money back to our Church Community.

  	If any among you might have any lingering doubts about the lawfulness of our Church-Community’s Request/Demands that we are here-by placing before your present office-holders;   then we will be glad to discuss these matters with you, in pre-scheduled & recorded meetings for this express purpose. 

	Much thanks to each of you for your responsible attention to this concern.

Sincerely;
