Being in Canada made my research Canada centric but also I studied much USA law and cases EXCEPT for the concept of private person in US law. Watch the short video below for proof of private person here, there and everywhere in US law BUT very specific and different areas compared to natural person.<\/em><\/p>\n

Based on a few recent comments here on the blog I ventured to a search engine and typed in the magic phrase “us law” to find some US law sites, then on a couple of different websites on their internal search boxes I typed in the magic phrase “private person” (in quotes to eliminate private and person on the same page but not together).<\/p>\n

I know this is going fast and it’s very technical but I hope you can reproduce this masterpiece of complex research on your own (sarcasm).<\/p>\n

Do your<\/strong> own searches for “private person” on your local jurisdictions law websites and see what you come up with. The results might surprise you – especially if you keep in mind searches for “natural person” usually produce far more results.<\/p>\n

How many people do you know who have ever referred to, taught or looked for “private person” in law? I suggest you take a look for “private person” in your local laws.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here are few pages I found in under 2 minutes. For those who can interpret the legalese, go for it and let us know what you think the use and context of private person means. I do note that “citizen arrest” statutes commonly refer to private person arrest and\u00a0private person even shows up in VERY SPECIFIC IRS stuff – note the unique context.<\/p>\n

Have fun. You never know what nuggets you will stumble across, like the last entry below from the University of Tennessee law course clearly, simply making the distinction between a private person and a public one. This is really not that hard if you can get past all the fear around the word “person”. The word person must ALWAYS be viewed in it’s correct CONTEXT.<\/p>\n

NOTE: To search a website that does not have a built in search tool you can use a search phrase on Google to limit it to a specific website:<\/p>\n

USE THIS IN THE GOOGLE SEARCH BOX – site:name of site search term<\/strong> \u00a0 \u00a0 ie. site:private-person.com private person<\/p>\n
