    The North Pacific v. Ravania

    The following is Prosecution Exhibit F, the affidavit of Mcmasterdonia, recorded this morning. A copy of the log has been provided to Chief Justice Abbey by Astarial, the witness, to verify the authenticity of the record. On a semi-related note, both sides have experienced difficulty in...

    The North Pacific v. Ravania

    The following is submitted as Prosecution Exhibit D, the deposition of Eluvatar. There were no objections to questions at any point in this deposition, so Mal and I agreed to simply submit it as evidence, rather than go through the whole rigamarole of Your Honor looking at a document that is...

    Noted. My office will address this matter.

    Criminal Law (Amendment) Bill

    Ah but Elu, it has to be *willful*. There's a "mens rea" (state of mind) intent requirement there. What you're suggesting is that any action which furthers outside interests, will be criminal. That's not true. It'll be criminal if it intentionally furthers outside interests. The problem...

    The North Pacific v. Ravania

    Please correct that to say "Affidavit of Scandigrad" - typo on my part.

    The North Pacific v. Ravania

    It is of note that the above log is in GMT - the other logs which will be submitted are all in GMT -5 - Eastern Time, US. Should the Court wish, I can provide a time-shifted copy for ease of review. Scandigrad's deposition authenticating the above log, which dates from March 19, 2013, has been...

    UNDER DEBATE: Election Streamlining (Amendment) Bill

    I have no major problems with this bill, though the counter starting from the time the election is won, rather than from the time the Oath is posted (which is where the law currently says your term starts) could do with some clarification one way or another. Currently, the only way a person...

    Discussion: The Justice System

    Honestly, if you look at the two indictments I've filed, with the recommendation/explanation structure I've put in place, I think the balance in terms of discretion is fine. The issue is that the AG's office, as you pointed out in part Elu, has none of the powers that are traditionally given to...

    Bill to reform the courts

    Perhaps if you read the rest of this forum section, you'd see that I've already begun conversation on that topic. My request for substantive reasoning is based on the fact that there is no efficiency incentive associated with appointments vs. elections for Justices. There has been no...

    The North Pacific v. Ravania

    As the precise subject matter of the leak remains classified, the link to it provided by Ravania has been removed at my request, by Abbey. The link was not working for me at any previous point in this investigation, so I was unaware that it might still be visible to anyone. Should it be...

    The North Pacific v. Ravania

    Discussion: The Justice System

    We can't find good candidates for 3 spots, regardless of activity. I don't see how more spots magically equals more candidates, nor do I see how utilizing less-consistently-active justices is a benefit. It's not about being active twice a week or something - it's about the need to be active...

    The North Pacific v. Ravania

    The Prosecution intends to have Kiwi testify regarding the NPA's policies regarding classified materials, as well as on the security impact of this breach. Blue Wolf will be called to testify regarding the UDL and Rav's response to this incident. The Prosecution is also adding mcmasterdonia to...

    Discussion: The Justice System

    Bel is correct on all points, in my opinion. Another thought that just came to me is that one of the underlying reasons why it's so hard for the AG's office to secure a conviction is because the AG's office has no power to actually drive cases. It has no authority to investigate - it can't...

    The North Pacific v. Ravania

    Eluvatar will testify for the Prosecution regarding the disclosure of these events, and the authenticity of logs provided to the Prosecution. Scandigrad will testify as to the timeline of events related to Eluvatar's disclosure, and to authenticate evidence. This list may expand slightly over...

    Discussion: The Justice System

    1) This is a massive risk. The two basic legal standards for proof are "beyond a reasonable doubt" and "preponderence of the evidence". The former is what we have now - it has to be reasonably certain, in other words. You have to prove that what you're saying happened, happened. The latter...

    Discussion: The Justice System

    There seems to be a lot of frustration with the judicial system, in a number of areas, so instead of firing off legislation without actually discussing the underlying issues, I figure the RA ought to actually talk about what it thinks is wrong, and perhaps those of us who are actually involved...

    Bill to reform the courts

    Noone has presented any substantive reason why they believe that appointed justices will be more efficient. Is there any argument, or simply an unsupported assertion?

    We used to have juries. It was awful. So awful.

    Refile the charges against Eluvatar?

    Let's go through the biased self-serving condescension one claim at a time, shall we? 1) I fired PunkD. That is not true - I asked that the Delegate appoint someone else to finish the trial because I don't believe the Judicial system is served by having Judges act as advocates. I could have...

    Bill to reform the courts

    To be blunt, I think the whole thing is stupid. The election system keeps people moving through the positions, and elected appointments will not necessarily improve the speed, accuracy, or consistency of the Court. It will limit the evolution of the law, as three indefinitely-tenured...

    Bill to reform the courts

    There's nothing in here about how to transition to this system. Would you have all the recently-elected officers vacate their offices as they no longer legally occupy them? Or would you prefer the terrifying prospect of our current Court occupying their positions for life?

    The North Pacific v. Ravania

    The Prosecution's responses are as follows: Motion 1 Under the Court Rules, the indictment need not conclusively prove its case, but merely allege sufficient facts to support the cause of action. The UDL's opposition to TNP's action in The North Pacific, and the subsequent concealment of the...
