Equity in Action
Equity lives not only in contemplation, but also in application. In a world, however, where its remedies are often buried beneath complex procedure, public fictions, fraud, and obfuscation, equity in action means stepping forward with clarity, conscience, and courage — whether as a claimant seeking just remedy, or as a defendant standing firmly on the grounds of honor and truth. As such, this section illuminates how equity can be expressed in both defensive and proactive postures amidst a system that seems to have forgotten the very justice it claims to serve.
As a Defendant
"Accepted" / Discharge
Apparently, a lot changed in 1933 when the United States (federal government) confiscating all the gold from The People, where given that "No State shall... make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts" (Article I, Section 10, Clause1), it required remedy (in the form of HJR-192), while also setting the stage (via the Emergency Powers Act) to transform the economy from substance (gold) to form (future securities / notes / drafts / bills of exchange / acceptances);
The notion of Acceptance for discharge operates under the principles of commercial honor and the processes and protocols by which a presentment (payment coupon) is "Accepted", post-1933, so the instrument may be taken to / exchanged at a Federal Reserve window so the related debt may be discharged;
In this regard, equity sets the stage for discharge and set-off, without arguing facts, jurisdiction, law, or venue. Requires an accompanying learning curve and renewing of the mind, education and embodiment in order to stand on one's ground, in honor, to bring equity to commercial matters.

As a Claimant
Bill in Equity / Inquiry Notice
In terms of how a living woman or man in the private might use equity proactively these days in order to protect one's rights and property, this is admittedly a more murky endeavor poised for exploration and experience;
While the judicial and legislative systems (and sources like Black's Law Dictionary, Burton's Legal Thesaurus, and various treatises) clearly recognize 'Equity Jurisprudence', the task of actually evoking / activating / "demanding" it in (post-1938) courts remains a new frontier;
As equity is said to operate under the 'law of notice', Bills in Equity and Inquiry Notices appear to be ingredients into activating the honor and duty of the courts (and proverbial 'chancellors' therein) to serve and protect the rights and property of free Americans;
As with wielding equity as a 'defendant', proactive equity as a claimant requires even "cleaner" hands and honorable dispositions relative to holding steadfast to the maxim principles in tuning to the frequencies of equity; as such, the required renewing of the mind in order to stand on your proverbial and literal ground in equity is not to be taken lightly.
