In the US, often it involves the Magna Carta (yes, that 900 year old document from England). These people believe that a sworn oath to a British lord absolves them of the duties and responsibilities of a citizen because a lot of our law is carried over from British common law. On their court documents (because it conveniently comes up when they are being charged with a crime or asked to pay taxes), they often have multiple names. One for their legal entity, and one for their personal being (and sometimes one with a title).
The Magna Carta isn’t the only basis for these fictitious legal loopholes. But similar tactics are used (using an older document like the US Declaration of Independence) to argue to override laws. It never works, judges see it and immediately put the smack down. If you want to see some videos, do a youtube search for
