My Reason For Running:
I believe that the Judicial branch is full of longtime incumbents who have overstayed their welcomes. I believe that is necessary for new life to be breathed into the judicial branch and that new life starts with me. I am also a big nerd when it comes to constitutional law so I am interested in these topics.
My Platform:
1. Impartiality and Constitutional adherence:
I am a staunch believer in the idea that the judiciary should be the safeguard against tyranny. As a Justice, I will take steps to makes sure the Judicial branch removes itself and abstains from getting wrapped up in political maneuvering, and stay above partisanship. Along with this, I will make sure to adhere to the constitution and bill of rights to the letter along with enforcing the laws put into place by the assembly to the best of my ability. Along with that, I do not believe in legislating from the bench and as I said earlier believe in a strict interpretation of the constitution.
2. Speedy but thorough criminal cases:
I will strive to make cases involving crimes in the North Pacific move faster but retain the thorough nature of a slow trial, for that I will advocate for the introduction of officers of the court to allow for faster examinations of evidence and therefore speedier trials that do not slow down and take up excessive amounts of the Judiciary's time.
3. Mandatory Judicial Review of bills and Resolutions by the Regional Assembly:
It is important that constitutional violations are caught in their infancy, so as to better safeguard against them a mandatory review of these bills and resolutions must be put in place. Some may say this will take up more of the Judiciary's time, but I hope if my second policy is implemented it will allow for the Judicial branch to have more freedom to conduct these actions alongside court officers if my policy is implemented.
4. The Introduction of Officers of the Court:
To further explain my idea for Court Officers, as the Judicial branch is confined to three justices it makes working on cases a slow and inefficient process so as to counter that we can introduce the position of court officers to the Judicial Branch. In this, there would be two Court Officers per Justice selected by said Justice in question these Officers would assist with court matters such as depositions and reviews of bills and resolutions. These officers of the court would not be able to make rulings but would act as assistants who will streamline the Judicial Process. The qualifications for such a role will be fleshed out in the future. But overall this new position will allow for a much more flexible and efficient Judiciary.
5. The Introduction of Assenting and Dissenting Opinions:
I believe that there must be an introduction of public Assenting and Dissenting opinions by Justices who vote for or against a ruling. This goes to bring a justice's views and interpretation on a matter to the public and allows for a more transparent and open Judiciary whose opinion's may be final but whose interpretations may be varied.
I also want to thank @Koopa103 for nominating me, he is a good friend who has always been kind to me.
