    Thoughts on approaches to sentencing?

    While I understand that the majority of TNPers are not avid followers of the Court, I wonder if anyone has opinions on the two sentencing perspectives put forth by St George and CoE in the current trail? As the AG for the trial of Tomb, I felt previous service to the region was a mitigating...

    Request for Review: Citizenship Oath Amendment

    1. What law, government policy, or action (taken by a government official) do you request that the Court review? The enforcement of the 'Citizenship Oath Amendment' has been inconsistent and the law as it exists prejudices against nations that do opt to refer to themselves as leaders of specific...

    It's been fun

    I was intending to decline nominations and missed the deadline to do so. The end result is the same but I hate loose ends. As I have noted elsewhere, my RL demands have taken a toll on my time lately so I would not have sufficient time to serve if lucky enough to have been elected. While we...

    The Minister for Justice

    I would like to be a Justice on the Court, however, I do not like elections without the possibility of loss. If you are going to have elections then they might as well be contested. Therefore, I will be happy to answer any questions put forward but I will be voting to have nominations reopened...

    Not a campaign thread.

    I didn't want the ballot to be empty. I was surprised that there was no topic about the vacancy in the RA (unless I missed it?) and no notification sent to nations via TG as is typical for elections. If for some reason I am still elected, I will show up, I won't rage quit during a trial, and I...

    Question to Attorney General candidates

    The last action from the AG's Office was the (successful) prosecution of former Delegate Tomb. In reviewing the public aspects of the trial, are there any areas in which you believe the prosecution failed or was particularly in error? Conversely, considering that the prosecution did prevail...

    Gracius Maximus for Attorney General

    During my previous two terms as Attorney General, I oversaw the reorganization of the office and the first criminal trial to reach timely and reasonable conclusion within the region in a very long time. I have been in the region for a long time, not always loved or cared for, but generally...

    Deposition Official Copy

    Per Chapter 1, Section 3.7 of TNP's Adopted Court Rules, a forum thread for depositions can be opened when collecting via Instant Messenger is not feasible. Considering the varied timezones and schedules of the witnesses, defense counsel, and the Attorney General staff, I believe it necessary...

    Gracius Maximus, Attorney General

    As the incumbent, I tend to believe that my record speaks for itself. While no criminal trials took place under this most recent term, I did reorganize the Attorney General's Office and oversaw the beginning of a review of past precedent, resulting in a clerical clarification within the Court...

    Gracius Maximus for Attorney General

    I thought about this over the weekend and decided to give it a go. I have been a part of the North Pacific community for over a decade. I have served as Attorney General in the distant past and as an Election Commissioner, Minister of Culture, Minister of Defense, Justice, Chief Justice and...

    Request for Injunction

    I am requesting an injunction from the Court to stop the current election for Attorney General until the issue of candidate eligibility cited by the former Election Commissioner, Cormac, is addressed. OOC: Sorry for the brevity, heading out the door.

    The Minister for Attorney General

    So, evidently several parties that were not in favor of my placement upon the Court for the past three or four elections have suddenly decided that I should be Attorney General. I almost want to just post a picture of Ackbar here but will refrain. Therefore... The Minister, as leader of...

    Testing the waters

    So, the last two times I ran for Justice I was soundly defeated because I do not pander to the masses on IRC and some people are still butthurt over things that happened almost 10 years ago (many of these supposedly affected individuals were not even here then). Since the time of the NPD, I...

    The Minister for Justice

    Nothing has changed. My opinions haven't changed. My attitude hasn't changed. Hopefully this time my campaign won't be derailed by a spurious legal accusation. We will see.

    Gracius Maximus for Justice

    While I have been out of the political loop for the last 4-5 years or so, the overall apparatus for governance within TNP has stayed relatively the same. In the past I have served as Election Commissioner, Attorney General and Justice/Chief Justice for the constitutional government(s). Prior...

    [Private] Review: Justice Special Election

    Since Abstain has failed to follow up on the Court's request regarding his query to the EC (Jaime in this instance), should the Court rule that no review is necessary as there does not seem to be a legal need or valid continuing complaint? In which case, myself and r3n should be removed as THO...

    The Minister for Attorney General

    The irony of the title is not lost on me. (Although it probably is on many here these days unfortunately.) Basically, I would like to work within the confines of the AG legal mandates to attempt a reconciliation between the current Rules and Procedures, the Legal Code and the Constitution/Bill...

    Constitutional Amendment

    I submit this to the floor of The North Pacific Regional Assembly for discussion. I believe it is important to maintain the idea of past activity at some level with those that seek office and therefore feel that the 30 day requirement be continued, just that it not need be immediately preceding...

    Split from HEM's delegacy election thread

    HEM was disqualified by Dalimbar. Also, are you including the farming from s4 (to which you were complicit :P) in your tally or just this board specifically?
