Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
724
What is the affirmance of a united states district court ruling?
725
The affirmance ruling within the Estate Claim was the jurisdiction of the Article II court could
726
not exonerate the nature of the capacity of the subject entailed Probate of Estate could not be the
727

728
this court to “annul” or “administer” my husband MEMPHIS LEWIS SMITH estate NCGS. §
729
28A-2A-5. What shown on application for probate.
730
On application to the clerk of the superior court, he must ascertain by affidavit of the applicant -
731
(1) That such applicant is the executor or devisee named in the will, or is some other
39
732
person interested in the estate, and how so interested. I, ANDRIVIA FRANCES WELLS-SMITH
733
have interest and the Section 28A-19-1 of NCGS Section Chapter 28A and within the scope of
734
Section 50 of NCGS which governs Equitable Distribution Procedures. Matter is jurisdiction in
735
the within the scope of UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT of declaratory judgment claim. 1
736
Equitable Distribution Versus Estate Administration. Equitable Distribution is the process by
737
which a court divides property belonging to married couple based upon a variety of statutory
738
factors. N.C. Gen. Stat. § 50-20 (c).
739
It is presumed that in-kind distribution of marital property is equitable.” The rights of the parties
740
to an equitable distribution of marital property and divisible property are a species of common
741
ownership, the rights of the respective parties vesting at the time of the parties’ separation.” Id.
742
§50-20(k). The State of North Carolina have different categories of claims are paid according to
743
statutory hierarchy, which includes the:
744
(a)
745
be paid. Eighth Class, A claim for Equitable distribution. Ninth Class, All other claims. N.C.G.
746
Stat. §28A-19-6(a) (2017). The Eighth class of claims was added to the statute in 2005, after
747
Section,50-20(L) had been amended to provide that equitable distribution claims whether
748
pending or not-yet filed at the time of a spouse’s death could be pursued against the decedent’s
749
estate. Act of July 12,2005. Pending Action is not Claim, prior to the death of spouse with respect

VI. Constitutional Provisions Involved
765
Federal court’s diversity jurisdiction applies only if a federal judge is being asked to: (1) probate
766
a will, (2) administer a decedent’s estate, or (3) interfere with property already in the custody of a
767
probate court. Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) Part I explores the
768
development of the exception, with particular attention to the Supreme Court’s recent grounding
769
of the exception in the rule that one court’s assertion of in rem jurisdiction can preclude
770
another’s. Part II canvasses the lower court decisions that have followed that explanation. Those
771
decisions show uncertainty over what the “prior exclusive jurisdiction” doctrine means in
772
general, and what it means for federal question cases in particular. To address that uncertainty,
773
Part III draws on connections between in rem jurisdiction and judgments to conclude that the
41
774
prior exclusive jurisdiction doctrine is a rule of common law about the federal judicial power.
775
Unless displaced by legislation, then, the probate exception can properly limit federal jurisdiction
776
even over federal questions. And, based on the available evidence, so it does.
777

United States Constitution, Amendment XIV
779
All persons bom or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction, therefore, are
780
citizen of the United States of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any
781
law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall
782
any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to
783
any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the Law.

STATEMENT OF THE CASE
795
796
On July 15,2020, a Sherrif Deputy Mecklenburg County Summons I, ANDRIVIA FRANCES
797
WELLS was summons with documents G.S. 1A-1, Rule 4(j)(l) (n) Asserting Jurisdiction over
798
Property or Assets. U.S. Marshall did not provide I, (“Wells”) documents. Nor, received
799
permission from my Federal Judge.
800
801
(1) Federal Law. The court may assert jurisdiction over property if authorized by a federal statute.
802
Notice to claimants of the property must be given as provided in the statute or by serving a
803
summons under this rule.
804
(2) State Law. On a showing that personal jurisdiction over a defendant cannot be obtained in the
805
district where the action is brought by reasonable efforts to serve a summons under this rule, the
806
court may assert jurisdiction over f fiduciary duty, the defendant's assets found in the district.
807
Jurisdiction is acquired by seizing the assets under the circumstances and in the manner provided
808
by state law in that district. The state judge did not ask My federal adjudicator to require my
809
presences August 8 ,2020 a Pro se extension was submitted contesting marriage and property
810
Rule 60(b). On September 09, 2020, Pro Se’ Equitable Distribution Matter was excepted. My
811

812
Pending the hearing, my husband Memphis Smith died domicile, prior to District Judge entering

828
2.
The District Court’s Ruling Allowing the Government to Establish Jurisdiction.
829
The Supreme Court has articulated a “probate exception” to the federal question jurisdiction
830
extended to Article III courts by 28 U.S.C. § 1331. That exception “reserves to state probate
831
courts the probate or annulment of a will and the administration of a decedent's estate.” Marshall
832
v. Marshall, 547 U.S. 293, 296 (2006). If a statute’s language is clear and unambiguous, no
833
further analysis is necessary” and the courts must give it its plain and definite meaning.” Quality
834
Built Homes Inc. Town of Carthage,369 N.C. 15,19,789 S.E.2d 454,457(2016). Chapter 50
835
N.C.G. Statute 50-20 (1)(2) does not require surviving spouse to comply with Section 28A-19-3
836
filing notice requirements to enforce an equitable distribution order, require a federal court to
44
837
assume in rem jurisdiction over those shares, then it follows that the probate exception precludes
838
the exercise of diversity jurisdiction. In Gaines v. Fuentes, 92 U.S. 10 (1876), Marshall v.
839
Marshall, 547 U.S. 293, 296 (2006). Brown v. Brown, 353 N.C. 220.
840
841
3.
The Fourth Circuit’s Affirmance of the District Court’s Ruling
842
28 U.S.C. § 1254 determine the instruction of Constitutional Law that was violated within a
843
jurisdiction of Courts that cannot resolve an act of Law. Marshall v. Meadows, 105 F.3d 904, 906
844
(4th Cir. 1997). An “injury in fact” is “an invasion of a legally protected interest which is (a)
845
concrete and particularized ... and (b) actual or imminent, not conjectural or hypothetical.”
846
Lujan v. Defenders of Wildlife, 504 U.S. 555, 560 (1992) (internal quotation marks omitted). The
847
plaintiffs have the burden of alleging sufficient facts to demonstrate standing. Marshall, 105 F.3d
848
at 906 (citing FW/PBS, Inc. v. City of Dallas, 493 U.S. 215,231 (1990)).

IX.
REASON FOR GRANTING THE WRIT
853
854
A.
855
Amendment's Equal Protection Clause can be applied to intestate succession laws, meaning they
856
cannot discriminate unfairly based on factors like gender or legitimacy of children, Fifth
857
Amendment a person cannot be deprived of life, liberty, or property without fair procedures and
45
To avoid erroneous deprivation of the right of a surviving spouse, the Fourteenth
858
trials. The thirteenth Amendment as a surviving spouse violation as a Natural bom Citizen my
859
Rights were deprive from immunity of State Agency.
860
In Marshall v. Marshall, 547 U.S. 293 (2006), this Court adopted a set of prophylactic measures to
861
protect the respondents In Ankenbrandt v. Richards, 504 U.S. 689, 112 S. Ct. 2206, 119 L. Ed. 2d
862
468 (1992), this Court reined in the "domestic relations exception." Earlier, in Markham v. Allen,
863
326 U.S. 490,66 S. Ct. 296,90 L. Ed. 256 (1946), the Court endeavored similarly curtail the statute
864
of State elements and Chapters of various laws that substantiate the procedures of Probate of Estate
865
and Equitable Distribution is Hierarchy within establishing Marital Property. With in the "probate
866
exception." The jurisdiction analogy has reach that curtail of the right to provide, Terry v. Sharon,
867
131 U.S. 40, 48, 9 S. Ct. 705, 707, 33 L. Ed. 94 (1889). But don’t utilize the 14th Amendment of
868
a Due Process Right to be heard within the court observed that a federal court has jurisdiction to
869
"adjudicate rights in probate property, state North Carolina is non-default state which is violation
870
of several Constitutional Rights, so as long as its final judgment does not undertake to interfere
871
with the state court's possession of the property. “Brown v. Brown, 353 N.C. 220. In order dissipate
872
the” compelling pressures which works towards undermining an individual thoughts action
873
without an attorney. The stipulation of law is a curious design to speak on defective actions that is
874
considered as effective within the Constitution of Law that is unambiguous to the indigent, or pro
875
se. To speak freely is a first amendment right. But to void an action of
876
Individuals will resist and compel her to speak where she would not be otherwise to do so freely,”
877
She was never advised by counsel what to state or claim. I will say, during various pro se motions
878
that was written under the Laws of state, and they ignored my Motions while being detained by
879
Federal government. The state did not have jurisdiction to summons I, with divorce papers.
880
Without asking for permission as a detainee.” OLD WAYNE MUT. L. ASSOC, v. McDonough,
46
881
204 U. S. 8,27 S. Ct. 236 (1907). “Judgment is a void judgment if court that rendered judgment
882
lacked jurisdiction of the subject matter, or of the parties, or acted in a manner inconsistent with
883
due process, Fed. Rules Civ. Proc., Rule 60(b)(4),28 U.S.C. A., U.S.C.A. Const.” The 14th
884
amendment of the United States Constitution gives everyone a right to due process of law, which
885
includes judgments that comply with the rules and case law. Most due process exceptions deal with
886
the issue of notification. If, for example, someone gets a judgement against you in another state
887
without your having been notified, you can attack. Quiet Title Law.”
888
§ 41-10. Titles quieted. An action may be brought by any person against another who claims an
889

890
claims; and by any man or woman against his or her wife or husband or alleged wife or husband

who have not lived together as man and wife within the two years preceding, and who at the death
892
of such plaintiff might have or claim to have an interest in his or her estate, and a decree for the
893
plaintiff shall debar all claims of the defendant in the property of the plaintiff then owned or
894
afterwards acquired: Provided, that no such relief shall be granted against such husband or wife or
895
alleged wife or husband, except in case the summons in said action is personally served on such
896
defendant. If the defendant in such action disclaim in his answer any interest or estate in the
897
property or suffer judgment to be taken against him without answer, the plaintiff cannot recover
898
costs. In any case in which judgment has been or shall be docketed, whether such judgment is in
899
favor of or against the person bringing such action, or is claimed by him, or affects real estate
900
claimed by him, or whether such judgment is in favor of or against the person against whom such
901
action may be brought, or is claimed by him, or affects real estate claimed by him, the lien of said
902
judgment shall be such claim of an estate or interest in real estate as is contemplated by this section
903
the judgement for lack of due process of law. In Griflfen v. Grififen, 327 U.S. 220,66 S. Ct. 556,90

904
L. Ed. 635 a pro se litigant won his case in the Supreme Court who stated. During the Probate
905
Estate a Notice was not provided to me, during my incarceration. We were married for seven years
906
counting the two years of common law. The Family Court ignored my Motions during the judicial
907
proceeding, and she rendered an order during my absence of 41 (b). I was not notified of the Court
908
date nor was I, informed of the order. Until was released from F.B.O.P. custody and was transferred
909
the Federal Halfway house that is when I, read the file and informed the North Carolina Bar of her
910
misconducted and constitutional violation. During the years of fighting and laps of time and on the
911
verge of nervous breakdown .Because ,1 need for judicial system to hear my voice and North
912
Carolina actions of Civil Rights violation on Marital property a default judgment without the

914
reference to a surviving spouse I, asserted a FRCP RULE 60(b) FRCP Rule 60(b) provides that the
915
court may relieve a party from a final judgment and sets forth the following six categories of
916
reasons for which such relief.
917
may be granted: (1) mistake, inadvertence, surprise, or excusable neglect; (2) newlydiscovered
918
evidence which by due diligence could not have been discovered in time, to move for a new trial
919
under Rule 59; (3) fraud, misrepresentation, or misconduct by an adverse party:
920
(4) circumstances under which a judgment is void; (5) circumstances under which a judgment
921

922
Which it is based has been reversed or otherwise vacated, or it is no longer equitable that.
923
the judgment should have prospective application; or (6) any other reason justifying relief.

from the operation of the judgment. F.R.C.P. Rule 60(b)(1) -(b)(6). To be entitled to relief, the
925
moving party must establish facts within one of the reasons enumerated in Rule 60(b). Prior to

926
my husband answering the assert he passed domicile. Within Law of North Carolina, it states I,
927
have a vested right, interest, or title, and not taken away or “divested.” There is a third-party
928
property that my husband explained to me in reference to the name on the commercial property I,
929
help pay taxes on the easement of 30 years I, have a vested interest and right the Quiet Title
930
Laws § 1-40. Twenty years adverse possession. No action for the recovery or possession of real
931
property, or the issues and profits thereof, shall be maintained when the person in possession
932
thereof, or defendant in the action, or those under whom he claims, has possessed the property
933
under known and visible lines and boundaries adversely to all other persons for 20 years; and
934
such possession so held gives a title in fee to the possessor, in such property, against all persons
935
not under disability.
936
. Quiet Title Law§ 41-10. Titles quieted. An action may be brought by any person against another
937
who claims an estate or interest in real property adverse to him for the purpose of determining
938
such adverse claims; and by any man or woman against his or her wife or husband or alleged
939
wife or husband who have not lived together as man and wife within the two years preceding,
940
and who at the death of such plaintiff might have or claim to have an interest in his or her estate,
941
and a decree for the plaintiff shall debar all claims of the defendant in the property of the plaintiff
942
then owned or afterwards acquired: Provided, that no such relief shall be granted against such
943
husband or wife or alleged wife or husband, except in case the summons in said action is
944
personally served on such defendant. If the defendant in such action disclaim in his answer any
945
interest or estate in the property or suffer judgment to be taken against him without answer, the
946
plaintiff cannot recover costs. In any case in which judgment has been or shall be docketed,
947
whether such judgment is in favor of or against the person bringing such action, or is claimed by
948
him, or affects real estate claimed by him, or whether such judgment is in favor of or against the

949
person against whom such action may be brought, or is claimed by him, or affects real estate
950
claimed by him, the lien of said judgment shall be such claim of an estate or interest in real estate
951
as is contemplated by this section. However, in Upchurch v. Upchurch, 122 NC App 172
952
(1996)(Upchurch I), the court of appeals held that ownership for purposes of ED includes both
953
legal and equitable ownership and recognized that within the context of an ED proceeding, a
954
court has the equitable authority to impose a constructive or resulting trust upon property legally
955
owned by someone other than a spouse. While in other situations a party has a right to have a
956
jury determine whether grounds exist for the imposition of a trust, the Supreme Court held in
957
Sharp v. Sharp, 351 NC 37 (1999), that there is no jury trial right when the issue arises in the
958
context of an ED case. The judge rather than the jury must decide whether a trust should be
959
imposed.
960
The court of appeals also has held that a trial court can impose a trust on property owned by a
961
third party even if neither spouse expressly requests that relief in a pleading. Weatherford v.
962
Keenan, 128 NC App 178 (1998).
963
If the trial court finds grounds to impose a trust, the court can order the title to the property be
964
conveyed to one or both spouses and classified as marital property. Gragg v. Gragg, 94 NC App
965
134 (1989).
966
Andrivia Frances Wells, the plaintiff-appellant, filed a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action against the
967
Mecklenburg County Clerk of Probate Estates, Memphis L. Smith, Jr., and Audris Veronica Ford
968
Asmond. The case was initially heard by the United States District Court for the Western District
969
of North Carolina, where the district judge, Max O. Cogbum, Jr., dismissed the action for failure
970
to state a claim upon which relief could be granted. The claim was third-party property that held
971
the or name of her(“Wells”) brother-in-law estate name. The Plaintiff-Appellant, Andrivia
50
972
Frances Wells husband possess the property and paid off the mortgage that was claimed contract
973
within him and his brother. Mecklenburg County Probate of Estate would not let me reopen the
974
Estate, our system of government "requires that federal courts on occasion interpret the
975
Constitution in a manner at variance with the construction given the document by another
976
branch." Powell v. McCormack, supra, at 549. And in Baker v. Carr, 369 U.S., at 211, the Court
977
stated:
978
"Deciding whether a matter has in any measure been committed by the Constitution to another
979
branch of government, or whether the action of that branch exceeds whatever authority has been
980
committed, is itself a delicate exercise in constitutional interpretation, and is a responsibility of
981
this Court as ultimate interpreter of the Constitution."
982
Askew v. City of Kinston, 902 S.E.2d 722(N.C. 2024), and Kinsley v. Ace Speedway Racing,
983
Ltd., 904 S.E.2d 720(N.C. 2024).
984
The crux of the appellate court's decision rested on the timeliness of the notice of appeal filed by
985
Wells. According to Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure v Ma4(a)(l)(A), a party has 30 days
986
after the entry of the district court's final judgment or order to file a notice of appeal. Wells filed
987
the notice of appeal 33 days after the district court's order, missing the 30-day deadline. The
988
appellant did not seek an extension or reopening of the appeal period as allowed under Federal
989
Rule of Appellate Procedure 4(a)(5) or 4(a)(6).
990
See, United States v. Nixon, 418 U.S. 683, 705-707 (1974).
991
“Whether the federal courts should be especially alert to avoid undue interference with the
992
state judicial system flowing from demands upon state judges to appear as witnesses need not be
993
addressed at this time.”
51
994
Judicial immunity attaches only to actions undertaken in a judicial capacity. Forrester v. White,
995
484 U.S. 219, 227-229 (1988). In determining whether an action is "judicial," we consider the
996
nature of the act and whether it is a "function normally performed by a judge." Stump v.
997
Sparkman, 435 U.S. 349,362(1978).
998
999
Page 14 See also Supreme Court of Virginia v. Consumers Union of United States, Inc., 446 U.S.
1000
719, 736-737 (1980) (judge not entitled to judicial immunity when acting in enforcement
1001
capacity); cf. Mitchell v. Forsyth, 472 U.S. 511, 520-524 (1985) (Attorney General not
1002
absolutely immune when performing "national security," rather than prosecutorial, function).
1003
Moreover, even if the act is "judicial," judicial immunity does not attach if the judge is acting in
1004
the " clear absence of all jurisdictions."' Stump v. Sparkman, 435 U.S., at 357 (quoting Bradley
1005
v. Fisher, 13 Wall. 335, 351 (1872)).
1006
The Fourth Circuit panel, including Circuit Judges King and Rushing, and Senior Circuit Judge
1007
Motz, upheld that the timely filing of a notice of appeal in a civil case is a jurisdictional
1008
requirement, citing Bowles v. Russell. Consequently, the court found that it lacked jurisdiction to
1009
hear the appeal due to the untimely notice of appeal filed by Wells. The panel dismissed the
1010
appeal without oral argument, stating that the facts and legal contentions were adequately
1011
presented in the materials before the court and that oral argument would not aid the decisional
1012
process.
1013
If you are a Surviving Spouse, you have rights that can benefit you from many different sources
1014
and bodies of law. You should contact Jet Probate immediately whether you were named as a
1015
Beneficiary of your Spouse’s Will or whether or not your loved one even had a Will3. Courts will
52
1016
look at state law for guidance on who to appoint but typically the law will provide for the
1017
following people: surviving spouse, children, parents of the decedent, the decedent’s siblings, or
1018
the decedent’s grandchildren-! If a will attempts to disinherit a spouse in some way, the spouse
1019
may be protected by state law. Each state has laws regarding spousal inheritance, which
1020
generally follow one of three approaches: the traditional spousal share approach, the augmented
1021
estate approach, or the community property approach. Like credibility determinations, the weight
1022
of the evidence is a matter left to the finder of fact, and this Court does not reweigh the evidence
1023
produced at trial or substitute its judgment for that of the finder of fact. See, e.g., In re Patron,
1024
250 N.C. App. 375, 384, 792 S.E.2d 853, 860 (2016).
1025
The son which the judicial system of the probate of Estate was provided letters by judge. Marital
1026
property fraudulently sold Jurisdiction of the person was essential to a valid order. Stancill v.
1027
Gay, supra. See, Grasty v. Grasty, 125 N.C. App. 736, 739, 482 S.E.2d 752, 754 (trial court did
1028
not err in failing to value husband’s business
1029
when only evidence offered was “wholly incredible and without reasonable basis”), review
1030
denied, 346 N.C. 278, 487 S.E.2d 545 (1997)
1031
McLeod v. McLeod, 74 N.C. App. 144, 327 S.E.2d 910 (1985), The Company I provided
1032
interest, money, and equipment. Every year I paid the Secretary of Estate to L.L.C. and property
1033
taxes on Commercial Property and personal property.
1034
In 2003, the General Assembly amended Section 50-20 to add the following pertinent
1035
language: Chapter 50-20 (1)(1) A claim for equitable distribution, whether an action is filed or
1036
not, survives the death of a spouse so long as the parties are living separate and apart at the time
1037
ofdeath.(2) The provisions of Article 19 of Chapter 28 A of the General Statutes shall be
53
1038
applicable to a claim for equitable dist. If a statute’s language is clear and unambiguous, no
1039
further analysis is necessary “and the courts must give it its plain and definite meaning.
1040
distribution against the estate of the deceased spouse. See, SMITH v. RODGERS | 824 S.E.2d
1041
155(2019).
1042
'[T]he timely filing of a notice of appeal in a civil case is a jurisdictional requirement.' - Bowles
1043
v. Russell, 551 U.S. 205,214 (2007).
1044
The key notes: Judge of the Appellate Courts violated my Constitutional Right. I was being
1045
released from Federal custody. I was living in a home with no electricity. Because the individuals
1046
that resided in my home during COVID-19 was stealing power and I had Duke Energy to come
1047
to an agreement with me. They were fixing on the issue for six-months. The lines that were cut.
1048
I asked them to place them underground. I, give it to God, they did not charge me for the Labor.
1049
I, had to pay for various permits and I purchase the material. For the License Electrician to
1050
complete the task. That was strenuous within a home that was cold and there were days when its
1051
rain. God have favor on me.
1052
'Because Wells failed to file a timely notice of appeal or to obtain an extension or reopening of
1053
the appeal period, we dismiss the appeal.' - Per Curium Opinion. The Appeal dismissed within an
1054
order that I waited in the mail to receive an answer of the Notice. The Jurisdiction of the Action
1055
of a Federal Judge that is Article III for disturbing a Probate Action of Caveators Fraudulently
1056
sold my property. I wrote the state judge - up for not complying to Equitable Distribution Action.
1057
This case presents this Court with an opportunity to clarify the Equitable Distribution Action
1058
and Estate Claim.
54
1059
1983 Civil Rights Violation “initiation” standard in the face of the Law of Marshall v Marshall
1060
rule. Absent intervention by this Court, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals published the
1061
decision will work to undermine the carefully crafted procedural safeguards that this Court has
1062
spent the past years within the interlocutory of state and federal laws adopt a solution of trust
1063
that’s not an heir. The intestate share of a surviving spouse who was married to the decedent for
1064
at least 15 years in state of North Carolina, NC Gen St 29-1 to 29-30.
1065
1066
Conclusion
1067
Marital Properties that were distributed within arms of the interlocutory provisions was illegal
1068
and I want my marital property to return the third-party property and other initial property that’s
1069
mines within eye of the NCGS and the Constitution of Law. The 6th, the 5th, and the 14th
1070
Amendment Violation of the Constitution. I hope to God you all hear my cry and grant me. My
1071
properties and surviving spousal rights.
