TO: Supreme People’s Court
FROM: Central Continuing Committee

The CCC will abide by the entire procedural matters set fort by the court, and will also abide by the courts final verdict on the case itself.

As per Article 5a Section 2 Subsection A Paragraph 5 of the Constitution the Central Continuing Committee formally approves the appointments of the magistrates to the Supreme People’s Court by Head Magistrate HongHu.

[Jamski]

My coup government doesn't recognise the old constitution.

-Jam

[Snowflake]

I thought you were gonna plea guilty.

[Octavian X]

You are being tried under the guidelines of the constitution of the government which is prosecuting you, Jamski.

As a small technical note, Honorable Comrade HongHu, should not the case be called 'The People of the Human Hive vs. the Jamski Counter-Revolutionary Movement?' For one, the glourious state of the Human Hive is representative of the people, who demand that this trial take place. Two, records clearly indicate a second person joined the movement, though this person has yet to be found.

[Nubclear]

This is incorrect. During the attempted coup attempt, Vander did side with Jamski.
This constitutes a counter-revolutionary attempt at indirectly overthrowing the government by supporting the coup.

However this case is against Jamski and not Vander. Please leave all other speculations out of this thread.
