Claims for Federal Lawsuit: Unlawful Actions and Constitutional Violations
Overview
I, Naomi, assert that multiple public officials, public servants, and government agencies have failed to respond to my lawful requests for intervention regarding unconstitutional actions against me, including unlawful traffic tickets, towing, and mistreatment by the Glen Ridge Police Department. These officials, sworn to uphold the Constitution, have ignored my correspondence and failed to provide services owed to the People, as delegated by the Constitution. I argue that the actions of the Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) and Glen Ridge Municipal Court violate constitutional principles, as their statutes, codes, regulations, and policies do not supersede the New Jersey or U.S. Constitution. Below is a detailed account of my attempts to seek redress, the lack of response from government agents, and the legal basis for my claims, which I intend to include in a federal lawsuit under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 for violations of my constitutional rights.
Constitutional Basis
Public Servant Oaths: Public officials, including the MVC Commissioner, judges, police officers, prosecutors, and clerks, take oaths to uphold the Constitution, not administrative statutes, codes, regulations, or policies. Their authority is delegated by the People through the Constitution, as outlined in the Preamble.
Unconstitutional Actions: The MVC and Glen Ridge Municipal Court operate under unconstitutional frameworks, enforcing regulations that target non-commercial travelers like myself. The MVC's registration form, which applies to commercial drivers under 49 CFR (Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations), lacks an opt-out for private individuals, violating my rights as a non-commercial traveler.
Government Accountability: Public servants work for the People, not vice versa. Their failure to address my grievances demonstrates a misunderstanding of their constitutional duties and civic responsibilities.
ADA Violations: As a disabled individual, I was denied reasonable accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) by the Glen Ridge Police Department, particularly by Sgt. Anthony Mazza who failed to ensure my safe transport home after towing my vehicle.

Claims for Federal Lawsuit
42 U.S.C. § 1983 Violation: The Glen Ridge Police Department, Municipal Court, and associated officials acted under color of law to deprive me of my constitutional rights, including due process and equal protection, by issuing unlawful traffic tickets, towing my vehicle, and ignoring my motions and notices.
ADA Violation: Sgt. Anthony Mazza failed to provide reasonable accommodations under the ADA, neglecting to ensure my safe transport home after towing my vehicle, despite being aware of my disability (evidenced by the handicap symbol on my license plate).
Unconstitutional MVC Practices: The MVC’s registration form, which applies to commercial drivers under 49 CFR, lacks an exemption for non-commercial travelers, leading to unconstitutional harassment by police.
Failure of Public Servants: Multiple officials, including judges, prosecutors, and clerks, failed to uphold their constitutional oaths by ignoring my lawful requests for redress, violating their duty to serve the People.
Tort Claims: The unlawful towing resulted in spoiled food and financial loss, for which I seek reimbursement, supported by receipts and evidence.
Conclusion
The repeated non-responses from government officials and agencies demonstrate a systemic failure to uphold constitutional duties. The actions of the Glen Ridge Police Department, Municipal Court, and MVC violate my rights as a private citizen and a disabled individual. I intend to include these claims in a federal lawsuit under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, seeking redress for constitutional violations, ADA non-compliance, and financial damages.
