Then he would be undergoing impeachment hearings in regards to his office within the Regional Assembly and Cabinet, not criminal charges in regards to treason.
Breaking the oath to uphold the Constitution is a wholly separate category than the stated reasons for the ongoing Court proceedings.
The "Regional" Assembly only has overriding authority at this point because the Delegate recognizes it as such. While EM was the Delegate he did not so while it may (or may not) be true that he broke the Constitution of this government since it wasn't the prevailing form during that time period...
OOC:
If I want to address the forum administration here and the clearly OOC ramifications of their actions in regards to ToS or otherwise then I will do so OC, not via an IC post as I have done throughout this thread up to this point.
Having Admins chime in that they can ban a player because...
Many people believe that one nation can not change this world.
I stand in contradiction to that point, and have stood so on several occasions.
The Pacific will return to a position of prominence and power by sheer force of my will, if for no other reason. I am not concerned with what some...
How so?
The only aspect of the trial it alters is that when the expected verdict is delivered the government, since it has the support of the sitting Delegate, might have recourse to actually inforce the sentence provided the Defendant ever returns to the region.
Having been reinstated to the Pacific Senate and assuming the title of High Lord and Grand Inquisitor of Pacifica I believe it now appropriate to claim that I do represent The Pacific insofar as this Embassy and the region of TNP is concerned.
If you could adjust my group settings accordingly...
Objection.
The Constitution of TNP, which supercedes and overrides the Legal Code, states that all criminal trials shall include a jury, therefore Summary Judgement is disallowed in this instance.
Congratulations on retaking the Delegacy. If you ever choose to support a different style of government let me know, I have a forum already available. ;)
Regardless, while he was sitting Delegate he had the right to do as he chose in regards to the governing, or lack thereof, within the region and he chose not to support this form and acted accordingly.
Tomorrow morning will most likely see a return of a Delegate that does support this form of...
You will note that I state that the Delegate has the right to do as it chooses, I have never stated that the Delegate is always right or that we had to agree with those decisions.
I can assure you that certain parties have sufficient understanding of the influence rules to provide the necessary guidance to make certain the current Delegate doesn't place itself into a position of helplessness.
I myself have probably the best working knowledge of the influence system in...
The only sitting Feeder Delegates that have been overthrown by force have been those that were either completely inept or those that sabotaged themselves (i.e. Great Bight ejecting his own endorsers).
If the current Delegate gets sufficient logistic support and has the resolve to stay in...
Guilty of what?
Banned from where?
If you ban the Delegate from this forum then you simply alienate this community from the real political arena. It has happened in the past and I believe the current ruling class here recognizes that fact. It is in the best interests of this community, if it...
In regards to your first comment, I disagree on the state of The Pacific. It may be undergoing a period of transition and a lull in activity but it is far from a vacuum. Eventually all good Pacificans return from the Diaspora.
Regarding the second, you obviously are one that hasn't taken the...
To point out one minor flaw in the arguement above I will note (without trying to get too offtopic since the admin here has already warned us) that the Delegate of The Pacific has continuously, since the days of Mammothistan and Unlimited before him been at an endorsement level of between 170...
You are incorrect on several levels. Recognizing the "legitimacy" of the Court as it pertains to this government structure itself does not automatically carry over to recognizing the government as the actual and in force government of the region, even if the government itself chooses to claim...
Except that if the masses truly were dissatisfied with the Delegate then they could voluntarily remove their endorsement, without the prompting of unendorsement propaganda. The fact that the masses are either happy or indifferent doesn't actually effect the right of the Delegate to do as he or...
No.
As I stated in my comments here and in our statements to the Court, we recognize the legitimacy of the Court as it pertains to this governmental structure but not as it supposes to pertain to TNP as a whole. The Court is a structure of the Constitutional Govt of TNP, not of The North...
Yes, I speculate that there are several levels of turmoil above where you stand now, which is why it baffles me that so many would be so unhappy with this turn of events.
I daresay the Gatesville Militia is simply assisting the sitting Delegate, if it has truly officially deployed here at all, in stabilizing the region and helping to prevent any would-be opportunists from taking the reigns and causing havoc.
The choice is not mine to make, regardless of what my choice may or may not be. Likewise, it is not the choice of anyone here outside he who sits as Delegate currently.
From what I have gathered in my one and a half day here is that the former Delegate was inactive for a period of time that...
