[Private] Proposed Court Rule Changes

Romanoffia

Garde à l'eau!
See: http://forum.thenorthpacific.org/single/?p=8143067&t=7199138.


The intent of the changes are to move Evidentiary Motions to the Discovery phase of the trial and singularly and specifically prohibit them in the Pre-Trial phase. This is a more logical approach considering that there should be evidence submitted before it can be ruled upon. :P


I've also struck the Civil Trial section entirely because we do not have a Civil Code in TNP. That's only logical.


Another thing we need to do is to add a provision on how the Court changes its rules and the procedure for doing so. The only provision we actually have is Constitutional but it is rather nebulous.

We need to formalize a process which doesn't generally imply that the CJ can do this alone.


I Also want to add an appeals process that is judged by a jury of 3 or more RA members who volunteer to hear an appeal if granted by the Court (I'd like to have automatic appeals on the really big offenses).
