For the most part, Partin has represented herself in court, although she did accept the appointment of Corvallis defense attorney Clark Willes to act as an adviser. She has insisted on speaking from behind the wooden bar that separates the gallery from the attorney’s tables and the judge’s bench, saying that to cross the bar would be a recognition of the court’s authority.

In a hearing Tuesday morning, Judge Locke Williams set a 12-person jury trial in the case to run June 12-13, but Partin, as she has done before, demanded that the case be transferred to federal court.

“There are filings that have been made that show I am an entity of Minnesota,” she said. “I would like this case, again, to find its proper jurisdiction in federal court.”

Williams told Partin she could file a formal motion to that effect and he would consider it, but in the meantime the case would move ahead.

“I’m going to schedule your case for trial,” the judge said. “You can test your legal theories before a jury.”

Partin may still face similar charges in an unrelated case.

On Feb. 7, Partin was pulled over for an alleged equipment violation by an Oregon State Police trooper within a block of the scene of her November traffic stop.
