[Octavian X]

Thinking about punishments (thank GoogleGod I'm on the PAC - immunity from prosecution ), does't the Constituion mandate the creation of a high court?

[Vander]

Reguardless of the constitution (No shame to the great document), we need a high court to keep the judiciary separate from other governmental entities; even if it is just for show.
On that topic, I say we have an odd number of judges, preferably three or five.

[Snowflake]

I believe Comrade Octavian Xenodaughnuts is correct that the constitution mandate the creation of the Supreme People's Court and local People's court. However, no judge has been appointed/elected. Maybe with the secret police force working effeciently we don't really need a judge?

[Voltaire]

The Chairman would appreciate any volunteers for the positions of Judges for the Supreme People's Court... to date there has been none... but since we don't have any crime in the Hive there is no need for any.

[Voltaire]

Oh, and kudos to Comrade Tassadar for coming up with a criminal code, the Chairman is pleased.

[Voltaire]

[Chairman hat on]

Also, the Chairman requests (i.e. orders) the Peoples' Assembly Council to vote on the proposed Criminal Code, as well as appoint Judges to the Supreme People's Court. If the PAC is unable to fulfil its constitutional duty the CCC will take the liberty of doing so.

[Chairman hat off]

[Vander]

I nominate myself to the position. Although young to the Hive, I worked as Chief Justice in the Civ Fanatic's MSDG team.

The CCC accepts your nomination, and supports your bid for the position.

[Frankychan]

I'll just settle for enforcing the law....but whatever the Chairman wishes, I'll do.

[Vev]

Will there be Judge Dredd justice?

[Octavian X]

I've always loved this judicial stuff. I've served on various other courts in other Democracy games.

Also, as the General Secretary of the People's Advisory Council, I call a vote of the Council's deputies on the subject of the laws. Comrades Vev, Rokossovky, Frankychan, and Micha are requested (and rather required) to vote on the laws.

I vote YES.

[Vev]

More policing is good.

Also, I'd like to propose the following for the creation of a court:

-There will be 5 Judges
-All cases will be heard by the court.
-The courts words are final, to be reversed by only the court.
-The court shall be called the Supreme Peoples Court.
-The Supreme Peoples Court shall hold presedence over any other courts, within the hive or in Foreign Powers.

The Supreme Peoples Court of the Human Hive shall have SIX ("6") Judges, to be referred to as "Supreme Comrade Judge(s)". This court shall hear all cases, small or big, whether Theft or Murder, all across the land. The court shall hear all requests on matters of law and secuirty, brought up by civilian or military, capitalist or communist, black or white, male or female, rich or rich (everyone in the hive is rich!), sentient or non-sentient, old or young, and shall not discriminate based on any of these factors. The court shall hear all cases, but shall give more serious cases immediate priority.
The Supreme Peoples Court of the Human Hive shall have rule over all other courts (To be referred to as "District, County, State," or "City" courts), here or in any other foreign power. The courts word is FINAL, and can only be reversed by either the court itself, or by a 2/3 vote of Government INCLUDING the Chairman. The court shall have no department higher than itself, including but not limited to the CCC Command Structure.
The court shall have strong ties with the military so that if it is required the court can order the military to execute a decision.
Each member of the court shall have an equal voice in the Peoples Council, and shall not be given special awards or recognition for being judges in the Supreme Peoples Court.
The court does NOT have the power to overthrow the government. The court DOES have the power to reform the government.
Judges inside the court may NOT Abstain on an issue. If a judge is personally involved in a case, they will NOT give up their seat, and they shall rule according to what they wish.
ANY attempt at destabalizing the court (As will be determined by the court) is a Class A General Infraction.
The Court CANNOT be ordered by the Chairman to give a specific verdict. The court is IMMUNE to the Chairmans Veto Power.
All court judges are to be appointed by the Chairman. All court staff are to be appointed by the Judges.
A constitutional amendment will require a 5/6ths vote inside the Court, and a supermajority (66+) inside the Peoples Council.
The court cannot create new laws, however the court may amend existing laws.
The Judges of the court shall elect a Supreme Justice, whom will have Veto power inside the court and whom will count as 2 votes. After the election inside the court, if there is a sufficent movement to contest the decision (Defines as about 30 percent), then the court will be forced to give up the election to the Peoples Council.
The Supreme Justice may veto any decision that is not a supermajority (5/7ths).
This document will be amended. You can count on that.

I submit myself to the PAC for nomination, however would prefer if the Chairman were to appoint nominees himself.

Also, one more thing I forgot:

Re-election of the Justices will be held every 20 TURNS.
