A landmark case has been filed in the Eastern District of Virginia, challenging the use of servitude as a form of asset manufacture. On November 24, 2025, Timothy Harrell submitted a complaint against multiple defendants, including individuals and entities such as USAA Federal Savings Bank and Nationstar Mortgage LLC. The complaint alleges violations under Section 1 of the Thirteenth Amendment, arguing that these parties have unlawfully imposed conditions akin to servitude on Harrell.
The plaintiff, Timothy Harrell, asserts that his “Birthright Freedom” was compromised by actions taken by the defendants, which he claims are tantamount to creating a condition of servitude. According to Harrell’s filing, this situation began with mortgage-related transactions involving USAA Federal Savings Bank and Nationstar Mortgage LLC on January 11, 2013. He argues that these entities imposed what he describes as a “domestic relationship of servitude,” thereby violating his constitutional rights under the Thirteenth Amendment. The amendment is cited as actively nullifying any form of slavery or involuntary servitude within U.S. jurisdiction.
Harrell’s complaint is extensive and details numerous alleged infractions by both commercial and governmental entities. He accuses individuals like Traci Bailey and Caitlin At’Lee of contributing to this state of servitude through perverted governmental processes that resulted in unjust legal proceedings against him. Specifically, Harrell claims that Bailey created an “asset of servitude” by manipulating legal resources to fabricate charges against him without lawful authority. These actions allegedly led to biased judicial outcomes and further entrenched his condition of involuntary servitude.
The plaintiff seeks significant relief from the court. He requests injunctive relief to prevent further prosecution based on what he describes as manufactured charges stemming from these acts of dominion over his Birthright Freedom. Additionally, Harrell demands monetary compensation for damages incurred due to these actions—specifically seeking $100 million in compensatory damages from certain defendants and punitive damages totaling $300 million each from others involved in perpetuating this alleged servitude.
Representing himself pro se, Timothy Harrell has made bold accusations that challenge both corporate practices and government procedures at their core. The case is being overseen by Judge EWH-DEM under Case ID 4:25-cv-00156-EWH-DEM in the Newport Division of the Eastern District Court of Virginia.
