I'll take that name, Witness My Fury. I'll be incorporating that under the pseudonym of Don Juan Diego de las Malvinas, and I'll be taking and soliciting donations. Cash or check only. If you want to know who to make the check out to, my best friends call me 'Cash'.

If you started an organisation (related to exposing the Watchtower, helping Jw's who are disfellowshipped, or any other worthy cause).. What would it be called and what would you aim to achieve?

Posted on behalf of fizzywiglet, at her request, in response to Chaserious:
"Except that I checked the IRS's 501(c)3 list, and AAWA isn't on it. They may have applied for nonprofit status, but they haven't been approved yet...that generally takes between 2 and 12 months.
In any event, you are incorrect to think the attorney probably advised them on this. I used to work for an attorney, and I have filled out and submitted the incorporation paperwork on that attorney's behalf, as his paralegal. It was a perfectly routine process. The attorney doesn't do background checks or ask for proof of I.D. or anything; we asked the client for the basic info (names and addresses of board members, etc.), filled out the paperwork, mailed it in, billed our client a few hundred or $1,000 for it.
The attorney who submitted the paperwork on Richard Kelly's behalf would have no reason to suspect that a name/address was false unless Richard Kelly brought it up to him." -

According to ARS 10-3202, Subsection I (for non-profits):
Any person who executed or contributed information for a certificate of disclosure and who intentionally makes any untrue statement of material fact or withholds any material fact with regard to the information required in subsection D, paragraph 1 of this section is guilty of a class 6 felony.
This is in line with the same exact information that the ACC representative provided fizzywiglet.
Notice this includes not only the person who executed the COD (the Incorporator), but anyone who 'contributed information'. This would apply to cedars as well, since he came up with the alias 'John Cedars' and provided such information, and not Mr Kelly.

However, the ACC response was in response to a direct question whether or not using an alias was against the law. Evidently they do consider using an alias to be a misrepresentation. I invite fizzywiglet to post what exactly she asked the ACC.
[edit - thanks for the clarification, fizzywiglet]

It's really unworthy of serious consideration by anyone with a brain when they don't take what the ACC says at face value. Unless you are accusing fizzywiglet of manufacturing or adulterating her entire exchange with the ACC, then your 'don't take anything unless it is from an attorney' line doesn't really add up. The facts remain: John Cedars is an alias. John Cedars is registered as the president of the AAWA on the Articles of Incorporation in Arizona. It is a class 6 felony to misrepresent information when applying for this charter. Unless you can prove that these three things are false, then you are speaking about something you have no idea what you are talking about.
Hearsay?

He's in an Eastern European country which might not even have an extradition treaty with the US. It's all on Kelly.

Actually I think the onus would be on Mr Kelly. John Cedars does not exist, and the person claiming to be him is safely outside the jurisdiction of the authority. According to his own admission, cedars is a UK citizen living in a small Eastern European country. If all this gets blown up, it'll be Kelly on the stand, explaining who, why, when, what, and where about John Cedars. I feel that the AAWA should get on this for Mr Kelly's sake alone.

One doesn't need to be a lawyer, judge, or jury to read into the following words from the Arizona Corporations Commission which were in response to a direct question of whether or not it was legal to use an alias in incorporation documents and draw the necessary conclusions:
"It is a felony to misrepresent information on documents submitted to us. If you go to the first link below, click on the statute link on the left, click on the corporate statues and do a search under misrepresentation, you will find some matches. This includes ARS 10-202 (i) and I copied that part below.
I. Any person who executes or contributes information for a certificate of disclosure and who intentionally makes any untrue statement of material fact or withholds any material fact with regard to the information required in subsection D, paragraph 1 of this section is guilty of a class 6 felony."
I do agree that this will require a bit of legal manuevering to get out of and connect the dots, and that issue itself is best left to the professionals. I wouldn't exactly discount what the ACC says, just because a non-legal professional bothered to ask them a direct question.

Thanks fizzywiglet. So they got him on two counts really. You can't use an alias, and even if you could, the argument could be made that an intentional omission of crucial information was made in bad faith, therefore cancelling out your indemnity from liability in civil cases. The use of an alias itself is subject to criminal penalties, and such behaviour committed by a director can lead to a civil case being filed on an individual basis.

How is it 'reaching' when fizzywiglet asked a direct question to the Arizona Corporations Commission about using an alias within the Articles of Incorporation and getting this reply:
It is a felony to misrepresent information on documents submitted to us.
Is the Arizona Corporations Commission dead wrong and full of speculation? And what does international law have anything to do with this? This is a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Arizona.
Don't lecture me about being sensationalist.
