1. Defend Constitutional Government 
According to the Oath of Office (Charter Section 3.6), every elected public servant swears to “defend the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution and laws of North Carolina” and to faithfully perform their duties of the offices they were entering, “so help me, God.”
When this Oath of Office is violated by public servants, it is the Right of the People to petition for a redress of grievances and to hold those in the public trust accountable to their actions and behaviors in the course of executing their sworn duties. Nevertheless, public recourse cannot be exercised for any “light and transient causes”; rather, demonstrated abuses, of power not delegated, detrimental to the rule of law, endangering the People to even further gross encroachments against their “unalienable Rights” to “Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness”, must therefore be delineated as evidence of just cause.
1. Session Law 2009-257, Senate Bill 570, Section 3.2 – The Mayor was denied as the “Official head of the Town government” to “preside at all meetings of the Town Council” and the Deputy Sheriff was illegally ordered to escort him out of the facility – which was not executed.

3. NC General Statute 143-318.11(a)(6), Closed Sessions – Council members illegally engaged in closed-door discussion (July 14, 2009) regarding the Mayor for questions of character, which must be addressed in Open Session.

Council members engaged in hostile and derogatory comments toward concerned citizens via official Town Hall email communication; one even implied that a 42 year Veteran was a “pig”(https://www.facebook.com/pages/Indian-Trail-Town-Council/160464680711039).
