The original pleading named fourteen (14) Defendants, including domestically resident political actors and party executives. Their inclusion anchors territorial jurisdiction within Antigua & Barbuda and renders avoidance of jurisdiction impossible in fact and untenable in procedure.\n\nPublic notice was extensive through national radio appearances, online publication, and direct communications with legally sophisticated local actors. Any suggestion of lack of knowledge is factually untenable.\n\nThe Attorney General's Office appeared in an amicus capacity. Certain structural clarifications, including the complete defendant count, do not appear to have been raised at that time. This does not affect jurisdiction and is noted only to explain the timing of this clarification.\n\nI am a litigant in person with a recognised disability affecting sequencing and processing of complex information. Where the procedural picture was incomplete, my realisation of the omission necessarily occurred later. This explanation is provided solely for context.\n\nAccordingly, acceptance of this Court's jurisdiction was unavoidable. Any non-engagement thereafter could only have been a deliberate choice.\n\nRespectfully submitted,\n\n\/s\/ Alkiviades David\nClaimant (in person)\nDigitally signed \u2013 signature functionality disabled\n\nDated: 2 February 2026\n<\/pre>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n    <section class=\"links\">\n        <h2>Key January 16, 2026 Hearing Coverage<\/h2>\n        <p>Watch the exclusive court video and read the full report on the historic jurisdiction seizure:<\/p>\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/2026\/01\/21\/exclusive-court-video-alki-david-vs-media-legal-cartel-eastern-caribbean-supreme-court\" \n           target=\"_blank\" class=\"btn\">View Exclusive Court Video &#038; Article on Shockya.com<\/a>\n        <p>#TheAntiguaFiles #JurisdictionLocked #ECSC #RuleOfLaw ????<\/p>\n    <\/section>\n\n    <footer>\n        <p>Filed and documented in the High Court of Antigua &#038; Barbuda.<br>\n        The rule of law prevails. Antigua stands firm.<\/p>\n    <\/footer>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/body>\n<\/html>\n\n\n\n<p>The core truth is simple and devastating for the defendants: The original pleadings name <strong>fourteen defendants<\/strong>, including <strong>domestically resident political actors and party executives<\/strong> in Antigua &amp; Barbuda. Their presence anchors territorial jurisdiction firmly in this sovereign nation. No clever motion, no forum non conveniens argument, no high-powered U.S. or U.K. firm can rewrite geography or procedure. Avoidance is <strong>impossible in fact<\/strong> and <strong>untenable in law<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"933\" height=\"897\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/original-Claim.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-211300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/original-Claim.jpg 933w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/original-Claim-300x288.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/original-Claim-768x738.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 933px) 100vw, 933px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Public notice was broadcast loud and clear \u2014 through national radio appearances, online publications, and direct communications to legally sophisticated local actors. Any claim of ignorance is factually untenable. The Attorney General&#8217;s Office even appeared in an amicus capacity, yet no structural clarifications (including the full defendant count) were raised then. That omission changes nothing: jurisdiction was accepted and retained when Justice Williams seized it on January 16, 2026 \u2014 on the record, with refusals noted and facts pleaded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is not gamesmanship. As a litigant in person with a recognized disability affecting sequencing and processing of complex information, I explain the timing transparently: where the procedural picture was incomplete, realization came later. But the law does not bend for delay. <strong>Acceptance of this Court&#8217;s jurisdiction was unavoidable<\/strong>. Any non-engagement thereafter is a deliberate choice \u2014 one that courts view dimly when defaults pile up and accountability looms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recall January 16, 2026: Exclusive court footage shows Justice Williams formally seizing and retaining jurisdiction in <em>Alki David v. Media Legal Cartel<\/em>. No stay. No dismissal. The case proceeds on pleaded facts. Defendants \u2014 including David Boies, Gloria Allred, Shari Redstone, Dani Peretz, Daphne Barak, Tom Girardi, Black Cube, and others<strong> (including Executives of the UPP Party),<\/strong> tied to Hollywood&#8217;s crisis-management syndicate \u2014 have <strong>not appeared, not responded, not contested<\/strong>. They are in default. The Court has moved forward toward what began as a $10 billion claim and has escalated into sovereign-scale restitution in the hundreds of billions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<CENTER><blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DTyr7JIDC0k\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
