More than 40,800 false criminal convictions as TN tax boss Lapps eyes petition

‘Eye of Sauron’ fraud gets wide support as officials look other way, media sees no story worth covering; law focuses on certified policies required of people with suspended licenses

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Wednesday, April 17, 2025 — Deputy commissioner of revenue Christine Lapps is reviewing my petition to the agency seeking overthrow of an admitted fraud run by the department in conjunction with department of safety in Nashville.

My notice was filed with the hearing office in a case overseen by revenue chief hearing officer Brad Buchanan, whose 62-page order denying my petition entirely ignores the question of certification, both o the EIVS program and certification of policies required under the law.

His refusal of my petition to restore my 2000 Honda Odyssey minivan tag pushed the case into its 20th month, during which time more than 40,800 innocent Tennesseans were convicted in criminal court for “driving without insurance,” and innumerable others — such as Ed Soloe — “driving on suspended.” That figure is the average number per year that Mr. Gerregano tells the general assembly are convicted annually, as if he and Jeff Long, commissioner of safety, have something to boast about.

23-004 Tulis-Petition for appeal to the agency

The crucial issue I bring to Mrs. Lapps, who has an accounting background ,is weather the department can require people to buy non-certified auto insurance policies when the Tennessee financial responsibility law of 1977 is entirely focused on the “motor vehicle liability policy” as defined in T.C.A. § 55-12-102, which policy is by definitiion certified.

Such high-risk policy is widely known as the “SR-22,” sold by insurance companies on a rotating basis, as they are toxic policies that increase risk for insurance carriers. The law says the policies are “apportioned” in fairness to insurance shareholders.

I’m challenging the certification of EIVS — the electronic insurance verification program — and demanding that the program be shut down by the process of decertification.

The program is a form of mass extortion, with 1 million people who are poor or unwilling to buy insurance targeted for revocation.

This mass injustice which is ignored by the ACLU, the attorney general, the controller of treasury, all district attorneys, every judge in the state, all 18,000 bar members prospering from injury, fogbombing media outlets who see no harm, and no value in dealing with the claims I allege the law makes upon state government officials.
