COMPLAINT
COUNT ONE
If parents (a) instruct their child to wear a mask or (b) demand their child wear a mask, to
comply with the Board of Education’s policy and thereby access public school, the parent
commits the act of child abuse. If administrators or teachers force a student to put on a mask,
they commit the act of child abuse.

(h) Institution means any public or private entity or agency (including Federal, State,
and other agencies). The word facility as used in section 520(g) of the act is deemed to be
synonymous with the term institution for purposes of this part.
(i) Institutional review board (IRB) means any board, committee, or other group
formally designated by an institution to review biomedical research involving humans as
subjects, to approve the initiation of and conduct periodic review of such research. The
term has the same meaning as the phrase institutional review committee as used in section
520(g) of the act.
(j) Test article means any drug (including a biological product for human use), medical
device for human use, human food additive, color additive, electronic product, or any other
article subject to regulation under the act.
The human subjects are the Plaintiff’s child and the other students in Jefferson County
Schools.
The institution is the JEFFERSON COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION and “public
education”. The facility is the school where the student attends and all of the other schools in
Jefferson County.
No institutional review board (IRB) has been commissioned as required by the statute.
The test articles are masks.
Subpart B----Informed Consent of Human Subjects
Section 50.20 General requirements for informed consent
Except as provided in Sections 50.23 and 50.24, no investigator may involve a human being
as a subject in research covered by these regulations unless the investigator has obtained the
legally effective informed consent of the subject or the subject's legally authorized
representative. An investigator shall seek such consent only under circumstances that provide
the prospective subject or the representative sufficient opportunity to consider whether or not
to participate and that minimize the possibility of coercion or undue influence. The
information that is given to the subject or the representative shall be in language
understandable to the subject or the representative. No informed consent, whether oral or
written, may include any exculpatory language through which the subject or the
representative is made to waive or appear to waive any of the subject's legal rights, or releases
DOCUMENT 2
or appears to release the investigator, the sponsor, the institution, or its agents from liability
for negligence.
Section 50.25 Elements of Informed Consent
(a) Basic elements of informed consent. In seeking informed consent, the following
information shall be provided to each subject:
(1) A statement that the study involves research, an explanation of the purposes of the
research and the expected duration of the subject's participation, a description of the
procedures to be followed, and identification of any procedures which are experimental.
(2) A description of any reasonably foreseeable risks or discomforts to the subject.

compensation and an explanation as to whether any medical treatments are available if
injury occurs and, if so, what they consist of, or where further information may be
obtained.
(7) An explanation of whom to contact for answers to pertinent questions about the
research and research subjects' rights, and whom to contact in the event of a research-
related injury to the subject.
(8) A statement that participation is voluntary, that refusal to participate will involve
no penalty or loss of benefits to which the subject is otherwise entitled, and that the subject
may discontinue participation at any time without penalty or loss of benefits to which the
subject is otherwise entitled.
(b) Additional elements of informed consent. When appropriate, one or more of the
following elements of information shall also be provided to each subject:
DOCUMENT 2
(1) A statement that the particular treatment or procedure may involve risks to the
subject (or to the embryo or fetus, if the subject is or may become pregnant) which are
currently unforeseeable.
(2) Anticipated circumstances under which the subject's participation may be
terminated by the investigator without regard to the subject's consent.
(3) Any additional costs to the subject that may result from participation in the
research.
(4) The consequences of a subject's decision to withdraw from the research and
procedures for orderly termination of participation by the subject.

statement is: “A description of this clinical trial will be available
on http://www.ClinicalTrials.gov, as required by U.S. Law. This Web site will not include
information that can identify you. At most, the Web site will include a summary of the
results. You can search this Web site at any time.”
(d) The informed consent requirements in these regulations are not intended to
preempt any applicable Federal, State, or local laws which require additional information
to be disclosed for informed consent to be legally effective.
(e) Nothing in these regulations is intended to limit the authority of a physician to
provide emergency medical care to the extent the physician is permitted to do so under
applicable Federal, State, or local law.

summary, and the person actually obtaining the consent shall sign a copy of the summary.
A copy of the summary shall be given to the subject or the representative in addition to a
copy of the short form.
4. The powers of a City Board of Education are specifically addressed in “Code of
Alabama Section 16-11-9, Powers generally: “The city board of education is hereby vested
with all the powers necessary or proper for the administration and management of the free
public schools within such city and adjacent territory to the city which has been annexed as a part
of the school district which includes a city having a city board of education.
Certainly, the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution protects the
individual rights of citizens from Boards of Education acting claiming implied power to abridge
fundamental human rights, implementing mandatory medical countermeasures and coercing
parents to commit aggravated child abuse on their own children.”
PRAYER FOR RELIEF
permanent basis and include an exemption of posting Bond as the proposed acts of the Board are
completely discretionary, psychologically abusive and illegal.
WHEREFORE, the Plaintiff requests this Honorable Court enter an ORDER stating the
following:
“This Court, upon careful review of the evidence presented and the analysis of the law,
finds that injunctive relief is due to be granted.
The reasons for the immediate issuance of this ORDER under Rule 65 of the Alabama
Rules of Civil Procedure are as follows:
Acts of abuse by parents, in acquiescent response to mandates from school boards claimed
only through implied power, that are physically and psychologically detrimental to their
children’s health and contrary to their natural right to make health decisions for the children,
must not be mandated or expected by boards of education. Exertions of power abridging personal
rights cannot be derived through implication. Exertions of implied power by mandate, abridging
a parent’s natural right to make health decisions for their child, are not lawful. Exertions of
implied power mandating parental consent to medical countermeasures such as their child being
required to wear a mask to access public school, are in direct violation of Title 21, Food and
Drug, Part 50 PROTECTION OF HUMAN SUBJECTS, of the United States Code of
Federal Regulations.
More importantly, the expectation by school officials that a parent must violate the specific
provisions of the Alabama Child Abuse Act to comply with requirements is insane. The
Defendant herein has apparently assumed power believed by the Board to be granted to them by
recommendations from the Alabama Department of Health, a statutory agent of the State of
Alabama granted specific authority by statute. Recommendations do not create power or
authority for non health related governmental agencies and certainly do not grant the power to
mandate health decisions regarding children inconsistent with the parents’ independent and
unabridged decision.
Regarding the requirements of Rule 65 of the Alabama Rules of Civil Procedure, this
ORDER is entered following a complete review of each party’s communication of their legal
authority to act. In addition, this Court has considered the protection of individual, natural rights
in the United States Constitution.
DOCUMENT 2
This Court finds that the assertions of power by the Defendant are justified only by
implication and that no “due process” as required by Section One of the Fourteenth Amendment
of the US Constitution has occurred in protection of the Plaintiff or the other employees.
This Court finds that 21 C.F.R. 50, Protection of Human Subjects applies herein and the
Defendant is barred from any violating act prior to approval of any medical countermeasure by
the Food and Drug Administration and obtaining properly communicated “informed consent”
from the parent of any child after all required approval protocols.
All requirements of proof by the Petitioner are deemed sufficient. Given the importance of
the decision of this Court, any limitation of power through technicality should be and is hereby
waived.
It is further ADJUDGED, ORDERED AND DECREED that the Defendant, JEFFERSON
COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION, is enjoined from any and all policies, communications,
contractual contingencies, etc. which abridge the Plaintiff’s and other parents’ right to make their
children’s health decisions.”
COUNT TWO
Plaintiff Petitioner, ADAM WALDROP, adopts all of the preceding in support of this
PETITION FOR DECLARATORY JUDGMENT and request this Honorable Court to enter an
ORDER stating:
“Policies requiring parents to violate the provisions of the Alabama Child Abuse Act in order to
comply with communicated mandates are void. The notion that parents have to abuse their own
children to gain access to public school is insane and illegal. Further, any acts of enforcement by
school officials violating constitutionally protected rights of parents and their children must only
be derived from judicial due process.”
and
“School Boards are required to comply with Title 21, Food and Drug, Part 50,
PROTECTION OF HUMAN SUBJECTS, to obtain prior approval before implementing any
medical policy as it relates to its students. The provisions of the Act provide the “due process”
DOCUMENT 2
guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. More
specifically, the Constitution and its Amendments require governmental agencies and boards to
secure specific power to act through either judicial or legislative law if fundamental, protected
rights are affected and could be potentially abridged.”
and
“ASSERTIONS OF POWER IN VIOLATION OF CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATION
TITLE 21, FOOD AND DRUGS, PART 50—PROTECTION OF HUMAN RIGHTS, WILL
NOT BE TOLERATED AND ARE SUBJECT TO IMMEDIATE RESTRAINT TO PROTECT
HUMAN SUBJECTS.”
In support of this Petition, the Plaintiff Petitioner submits to this Honorable Court the
following reasons for the requested ORDER:
4. The JEFFERSON COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION is violating CODE OF
FEDERAL REGULATION TITLE 21, FOOD AND DRUGS, PART 50—
PROTECTION OF HUMAN SUBJECTS.
5. The Board is administering illegal policies regarding masks and data gathering.
6. School officials at McAdory High School have informed the Plaintiff’s son that he is
dismissed from school and cannot return until complying with the mask mandate.
7. The Plaintiff and his son are protected by due process pursuant to the Fourteenth
Amendment to the Constitution of the United States.
8. Process includes balancing of rights. Power to act comes with parameters, extent and
limitation. Both must be assessed in deriving clarity. Clarity is confirmed as specificity.
9. Responsibility falls upon the actors. Actors guided by responsible analysis of extent and
limitation only then can receive confirmation. Authoritative action lacking confirmation
is irresponsible. Authoritative action in violation of contract through intimidation is not
legal. Authoritative action in violation of the “Protection of Human Subjects” statutes
can be criminal.
10. Actions inconsistent with ethics must be responsibly analyzed within written law.
Analysis provides clarity to the illegality of acts not confirmed by specificity through the
judicial or legislative process.
11. Actors here are individuals at multiple levels. Board members have conspired with
administrators and teachers to intimidate and abuse.
DOCUMENT 2
12. Principals herein are actors. Their authority comes with extent and limitation. Specificity
protects principals from illegal acts if they consider statutes.
13. Principals need specificity from their instructions. Instructions requiring acts claimed by
implication of power must be judged carefully. Decisions requiring conditional
acquiescence must be judged harshly.
14. Acts of power manifest personally. The actor must prevent individual subjects from
becoming individual victims.
15. Principals must protect students from abuse. No law empowers principals or teachers to
abuse.
16. Abuse can be recognized and is specifically protected by law.
17. Actors are guided by law and must understand ramifications completely.
18. Acts based in implied authority are not authorized and must be judged singularly. With
responsibility comes accountability.
19. Board members guide administrators from a position of perceived authority. Authority is
guided by contract, defined extent, and defined limitation.
20. Definition of the source of authority must be specific. Powers not confirmed by
specificity lack protection.
21. Acts not authorized bring responsibility. There can be no victims.
22. Parents need not seek confirmation of their authority as it pertains to their chldren’s
health.
23. Prevention of abuse requires no process. Protection should be immediate. Limits of
assertion may be judged through process.
24. Actors are not protected following notice of reality from a parent. Where consent is
withheld, there is no expectation.
25. Parents consider exemptions, religious and medical, only as a result of assumed
authority.
26. Parents need not claim exemption. They need only assert and exert personal authority.
27. Principals and teachers must recognize they are being instructed to psychologically
abuse students.
28. Protection is not limited by process. Matters of abuse should be resolved at the time of
imposition.

k. In contravention to established science, the JEFFERSON COUNTY
BOARD OF EDUCATION has violated the legal requirements for the
promulgation of medical counter measures with reckless disregard of the
fact that no confirmed evidence exists that a mask prevents the
transmission of, or the infection by SARS CoV-2.
l. The JEFFERSON COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION policy
mandating wearing masks in order for students to remain in school is a
product of willfully ignoring established science and is engaging in what
