Both the defense and prosecution have deposed Venico and the log of that deposition is here I certify to the best of my knowledge that it is honest and accurate:
The Prosecution hereby submits the following evidence as prosecution exhibit F
Prosecution Exhibit F - Message from Haafingar and Hjaalmarch to Ator People admitting guilt.
The Prosecution hereby submits the following witness list:
The Prosecution hereby submits the following evidence as prosecution exhibits A-E.
Prosecution Exhibit A - Screenshots of conversation between Venico and Haafingar and Hjaalmarch.
Prosecution Exhibit B - Skype Chat between Venico...
The defense has quoted precedent from TNP's own legal history that is mostly unrelated to the charges in question. So no, I'd say it hasn't be addressed. I however also await the decision of the courts in this matter.
The prosecution would like to note that the inability to edit posts is a frustrating feature...
However, there is no presumption of guilt here. The Defense's job is to question our evidence or justify motions to dismiss. The justifications the defense has presented do not, in fact, represent...
The prosecution will now respond to the motions of the defense:
The simple action of having a moderate but legal amount of endorsements is not, in itself material. However, when those endorsements are gained with the explicit intent of overthrowing the legally elected delegate, and those...
I'll keep this Brief:
The idea that the absence of clear language defining what happens when someone reapplies necessitates the strictest possible interpretation of the law is laughable. The law contains no provisions for reapplications. An applicant's denial is not specifically permanent...
I was under the impression that this was what PunkD wanted. I'd asked about addressing him directly and was told he was aware of the complaints and was encouraging just this kind of public discussion. I also had some quibbles with the language of the thing(as I don't think his military alignment...
Not that anyone was considering it(and if you were, you cray cray), but I know people have fears so I'll say it anyway: I will not seek, nor will I accept the nomination of TNP for Delegate or Vice Delegate.
Criminal Complaint
Defendant: Haafingar and Hjaalmarch
Plaintiff: TNP
The Office of the Attorney General humbly requests that the Court initiate proceedings in regards to the PLAINTIFF charging that the DEFENDANT did commit several criminal acts:
Criminal Acts: The Defendant solicited Venico...
I, Treize Dreizehn, do hereby solemnly swear that during my term as Assistant Attorney General, I will uphold the ideals of Democracy, Freedom, and Justice of The Region of The North Pacific. I will use the powers and rights granted to me through The North Pacific Constitution and Legal Code in...
Just to clarify, the removal of this line: "3. The restriction on running for multiple offices in a single election cycle shall be struck." would do away with most of the problems with this... but barring another change would open ourselves up to a similar court case as we had this time around...
Do to the more recent ruling of the Justices, this is needed more than ever. The law as currently written creates a distinction between Judicial and General elections, but the "Reopen Nominations" section only refers to General(and special) Elections.
This fix will correct that problem.
So y'all noticed the title of 4.4 did ya? It's the only part of the legal code I saw that differentiated between "general" and "judicial" elections, but I figured it might lead y'all to this. You win some, you lose some. Thanks for your prompt reply.
First of all as one of the invalidated candidates I believe I hold standing in this case.
Second, the question of interpretation comes from this line:
Therefor the point of contention is not if we are or are not eligible for nomination during the appropriate election cycle, but rather has...
I would like to request injunctive relief in regards to the nomination process for attorney general for at most a week in order to sort out the review that I am also requesting.
I am requesting a review of this decision:

Dueling Cardsharps
Court Justice (Pick 3): Treize Dreizehn | Ator People | SillyString
Would you like to reopen nominations? No
Attorney General: Chasmanthe
Would you like to reopen nominations? No
I think it's fairly clear the the list could've excised the Del and ViceDel. They're just at the top of the published list for clarity. The list makes sense to me as it is.
That said, the OOS should be updated regularly with the names of the active and best endorsed nations... even if it's...
TO DD:
1. The title to my thread isn't ordinary! It has my name in it!
2. Absolutely. There's room for creativity in any games that has a venue for it, especially RPGs. My D&D games never seem to last more than 10 sessions, but I've done some crazy shit and creatively during them.
3. Heh...
