Black's 6th: De facto government. One that maintains itself by a display of force against the will of the rightful legal government and is successful, at least temporarily, in overturning the institutions of the rightful legal government by setting up its own in lieu thereof.

De facto judge. A judge who functions under color of authority but whose authority is defective in some procedural form.

De jure: Descriptive of a condition in which there has been total compliance with all requirements of law. Of right; legitimate; lawful; by right and just title. In this sense it is the contrary of de facto (q. v.). It may also be contrasted with de gratia, in which case it means "as a matter of right," as de gratia means "by grace or favor."

So, from what Derek Moran was informed:'"Derek, Essentially all courts in Ontario are de jure courts, or law abiding courts.", means that when I become recognised as a belligerent, the court then becomes a de jure court?
