Parole case

On Friday, May 17, 2024, at approximately 11:30 a.m. EST, Lamont Maurice El (also known as Lamont Maurice Butler-El) was released from custody without condition following the completion and exhaustion of consular due process. The release occurred after the issuance, service, and non-rebuttal of the Writ of Quo Warranto and Writ of Habeas Corpus ad subjiciendum issued by the Morocco Consular Court, which rendered continued restraint unlawful.

Upon release, Mr. Butler-El was provided an administrative instrument titled “Commitment Release Clearance” dated May 17, 2024. The document was prepared under the fictitious designation “LAMONT BUTLER”, rather than the living man released from custody. As reflected on the face of the document, the clearance lists a corporate-style inmate name, control numbers, and identifiers inconsistent with lawful personal identification.

The Commitment Release Clearance further states that “all commitment duties and responsibilities have been completed” and that there are no further obligations. While the document evidences the fact of physical release, it does not constitute a lawful adjudication, judicial order, or valid consent instrument.

Because the clearance was issued under a misidentified and fictitious designation, and not pursuant to a judicial determination or lawful parole revocation outcome, the instrument is void ab initio for lack of jurisdiction and fraud. Its probative value lies solely in documenting the date, time, and unconditional nature of release, not in conferring or evidencing lawful authority over the person released.

The Commitment Release Clearance dated May 17, 2024 is published below as documentary evidence, reflecting both the termination of custody and the continued use of a fictitious designation at the point of release. 

See the below PDF copy of the instrument titled “Commitment Release Clearance” dated May 17, 2024.

On Monday, May 13, 2024, and Tuesday, May 14, 2024, formal written communications were transmitted to Devin Pisarski, acting as Case Management Liaison for the foreign de facto MARYLAND PAROLE COMMISSION (Inc.), concerning the continued detention of Lamont Maurice El (also known as Lamont Maurice Butler-El) under the fictitious designation “LAMONT BUTLER, Race: Black,” as instructed by the de facto commissioner Anthony Jerome McAllister during the de facto parole revocation hearing on May 10, 2024.

The email correspondence expressly demanded immediate release, correction of name and citizenship records, cessation of denationalization, and compliance with treaty-based consular notification and access obligations. The email further directed that its contents and attachments be forwarded to Anthony Jerome McAllister due to the emergency nature of the detention.

The communication cited treaty obligations, constitutional provisions, and controlling consular authority, and formally demanded that a habeas corpus hearing be scheduled within three (3) days, or, in the alternative, that Mr. Butler-El be released forthwith without condition or delay. Multiple supporting instruments were attached, including certified consular writs, affidavits, identification documents, and United States Department of State guidance materials.

On May 14, 2024, a follow-up email was sent to the same case manager reiterating the demand and instructing that the materials also be forwarded to David Blumberg, acting as Chairman Commissioner. This follow-up placed the responsible administrative officers on renewed actual notice that custody was being maintained without lawful jurisdiction or adjudication.

These written demands were directed to the same case manager who, days earlier, had presented the Parole Hearing Postponement Form during the May 10, 2024 de facto proceeding. No written rebuttal, lawful justification, or adverse determination followed these communications. Within days of the May 14, 2024 notice, custody was terminated, and Mr. Butler-El was released on Friday, May 17, 2024.

The May 13–14, 2024 email correspondence is published below as primary documentary evidence, demonstrating written notice, exhaustion of de facto administrative engagement, and the absence of lawful grounds for continued detention thereafter. 

See the below PDF copies of the email correspondence dated May 13–14, 2024.

During the de facto proceeding on May 10, 2024, Lamont Maurice Butler-El (Lamont Maurice El) expressly stated on the record that he is not “LAMONT BUTLER [Race: Black],” thereby disputing the false identity and classification under which the de facto parole revocation hearing was being conducted. This challenge to identity was neither adjudicated nor lawfully resolved; nevertheless, the de facto proceeding continued as though identity had been conceded under LAMONT BUTLER.

Mr. Butler-El further gave notice that his Consul was required to be present at the de facto hearing. This assertion was made pursuant to a Writ of Quo Warranto and a Writ of Habeas Corpus ad subjiciendum issued by the Morocco Consular Court and received by the de facto commissioner on or about May 13, 2024 (see copy below along with copies certified mail receipts and return receipts). By operation of those writs, the matter could no longer proceed as an administrative parole hearing and was instead classified as a habeas corpus proceeding, requiring judicial competence, observance of treaty protections, and consular access.

In response to these assertions, the de facto parole commissioner acknowledged the procedural posture and offered to postpone the de facto parole revocation hearing, expressly indicating that Mr. Butler[-El] could instead have the hearing “of his liking,” namely a habeas corpus hearing in which his treaty rights and consular jurisdiction would be upheld. This offer was verbally accepted on the record.

Immediately thereafter, a case manager identified as Devin Pisarski presented an instrument titled “Parole Hearing Postponement Form” for execution. When presented with this instrument, Mr. Butler-El did not provide unconditional consent. Instead, he executed the document conditionally by writing on the signature line:

“under duress protest; without recourse; all rights reserved”
 

This conditional execution expressly preserved all rights, objections, and remedies, and negated any presumption of voluntary waiver, acquiescence, or consent. A true and correct copy of this instrument is published below.

Following the conditional execution of the postponement form, no parole revocation findings were entered, and Mr. Butler-El was released from custody the following week on Friday, May 17, 2024. When read together with the audio transcripts, this sequence of events demonstrates that continued detention/imprisonment could not be sustained once habeas corpus was asserted, consular jurisdiction was raised, and administrative authority was challenged and preserved on the record.

On Tuesday, April 16, 2024, the Morocco Consular Court lawfully issued a Writ of Quo Warranto, a Writ of Habeas Corpus ad subjiciendum, and an accompanying Affidavit of Evidence and Information with attached Exhibits, commanding the production and immediate release of Lamont Maurice El (also known as Lamont Maurice Butler-El) for a habeas corpus hearing to be held under consular jurisdiction and venue.

These instruments were duly served via certified mail upon the de facto acting commissioners and representatives of the foreign de facto MARYLAND PAROLE COMMISSION, thereby providing actual and constructive notice of the jurisdictional challenge, the habeas corpus demand, and the requirement to justify any claimed authority over the person or liberty of Lamont Maurice Butler-El. The corresponding Certified Mail Receipts and Return Receipts, published below, evidence completed service and notice.

From Wednesday, April 10, 2024, through Monday, May 13, 2024, officers of the Morocco Consular Court engaged in repeated direct communications with representatives of the MARYLAND PAROLE COMMISSION, including Anthony Jerome McAllister, for the express purpose of securing Mr. Butler-El’s release in accordance with his treaty-protected right to consular jurisdiction and venue. These communications further satisfied all reasonable requirements of notice, opportunity to respond, and administrative engagement.

At no time did the Maryland Parole Commission rebut the writs, produce lawful authority, or submit a verified return justifying continued restraint. Nor did it convene a judicially competent habeas corpus hearing in response to the writs. Accordingly, due process under consular jurisdiction was fully completed and exhausted prior to and contemporaneous with the May 10, 2024 de facto parole proceeding.

By operation of law, the issuance, service, acknowledgment, and non-rebuttal of these writs converted any subsequent parole-related action into a habeas corpus matter, divesting administrative officers of authority to proceed absent judicial competence, treaty compliance, and consular participation. The failure to discharge the writs on the record constitutes a material procedural defect, documented elsewhere on this page through audio transcripts and contemporaneous instruments.

The Writ of Quo Warranto, Writ of Habeas Corpus ad subjiciendum, Affidavit of Evidence and Information, and attached Exhibits dated April 16, 2024, are published below as primary legal instruments evidencing the completion of due process and the unlawful continuation of restraint thereafter.

Below are the certified mail receipts and return receipts which served as proof of service of the Writ of Quo Warranto, Writ of Habeas Corpus Ad Subjiciendum, Affidavit of Evidence and Information, and attached EXHIBITS being served upon the acting Maryland Parole Commissioners, et al.

On Thursday, November 2, 2023, an unconstitutional bill of attainder instrument titled “WARRANT” was issued by John Cluster, acting as Commissioner of the foreign de facto MARYLAND PAROLE COMMISSION (Inc.), in coordination with parole agents Sean-Michael Matthew and Lashae Nicholson. The de facto warrant was issued under color of law against the named party “LAMONT BUTLER (Race: Black)”, a designation not corresponding to Moorish-American national Lamont Maurice El (also known as Lamont Maurice Butler-El).

The de facto warrant was issued without lawful jurisdiction, without a judicial determination, and absent due process of law under consular jurisdiction. It purported to act against a fictitious or artificial designation, rather than a lawfully identified person, rendering the instrument void ab initio and unenforceable on its face.

On Saturday, March 24, 2024, at Alexandria, Virginia, Lamont Maurice El was kidnapped and held hostage at the foreign prisoner-of-war camp ALEXANDRIA DETENTION CENTER (Inc.) pursuant to this void de facto warrant, and eventually transported into the custody of the foreign de facto MARYLAND CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION – JESSUP (Inc.) at Jessup, Maryland, under the color of authority of David Blumberg, acting as Chairman Commissioner of the foreign MARYLAND PAROLE COMMISSION (Inc.). He was held hostage and denationalized under the fictitious designation “LAMONT BUTLER, Race: Black” including assigned DOC #00424942 and SID #3849414, without a lawful warrant and without due process of law.

The execution of the November 2, 2023 warrant resulted in the unlawful deprivation of liberty and nationality, based on an instrument that lacked jurisdictional foundation and legal validity at the time of issuance and execution.

The warrant dated November 2, 2023 is published below as evidence, not as a valid legal process, and is included in this record to document the originating instrument relied upon for the subsequent detention.

See the below PDF copy of the instrument titled “WARRANT” dated November 2, 2023.

On Friday, September 26, 2023, the Morocco Consular Court issued a certified Writ of Error dated September 26, 2023, determining that the instrument titled DOC #00424942 in the records of the foreign de facto MARYLAND PAROLE COMMISSION (Inc.), as well as the instruments titled Case Nos. C-08-CR-22-000652, C-08-CR-23-000122, and 08-K-13-000884 in the records of the foreign de facto CIRCUIT COURT FOR CHARLES COUNTY (Inc.), constituted unconstitutional bills of attainder.

The Writ of Error ordered that each of the above-referenced instruments was null and void ab initio and unenforceable for lack of jurisdiction and fraud.

On Friday, September 29, 2023, the certified Writ of Error was filed in the records of all three (3) referenced cases. Thereafter, on Thursday, October 19, 2023, the Writ of Error was duly noted and entered into the record of the foreign de facto Circuit Court for Charles County and recorded as having been given “full faith and credit.”

The certified Writ of Error dated September 26, 2023 is published below as , reflecting both the issuance of the order and its subsequent filing and acknowledgment in the court records.

See the below PDF copy of the certified Writ of Error dated September 26, 2023.

 On July 11, 2019, Lamont Maurice El (also known as Lamont Maurice Butler-El) was compelled to execute an instrument titled “ORDER FOR RELEASE ON PAROLE” dated July 11, 2019. The instrument was presented as a condition of release and functioned as a misrepresented administrative order, rather than a lawfully adjudicated judicial determination.

Upon execution, Mr. Butler-El did not consent unconditionally. Instead, he expressly inscribed beneath his autograph the reservation:

“Under Protest; Without Prejudice”
 

This notation constituted a formal and contemporaneous objection, preserving all rights and negating any presumption of voluntary assent, waiver, or acquiescence. The conditional execution placed the issuing authority on notice that the instrument was being signed under objection and reservation of rights, not as an agreement or acceptance of jurisdiction.

As a result of this express reservation, the Order for Release on Parole lacked mutual assent and lawful jurisdiction, rendering the instrument void ab initio and unenforceable. Any subsequent reliance on the July 11, 2019 order as a valid grant of authority or consent is therefore unsupported by the face of the record.

The legal effect of the reservation is consistent with established definitions of protest and duress, which recognize that declarations made to preserve rights or negate implied assent prevent the loss of rights and invalidate coerced agreements, as defined in Black’s Law Dictionary.

The Order for Release on Parole dated July 11, 2019 is published below as documentary evidence, reflecting the conditional execution and the absence of voluntary consent.

See the below PDF copy of the instrument titled “ORDER FOR RELEASE ON PAROLE” dated July 11, 2019.
