      I move in the urgent Sheepstan case that anyone with troops one Sheepstan soild not be allowed to adjudicate the case.

      hence the follwoing list of possible judges are forbidden from hering this case.

      Centralis
      Alecrast

        I agree. If they have troops stationed there, they cannot be impartial. I would also urge Judicial candidates to refrain from publicizing (or even having) opinions, until the case is in court.

        I suppose if the Chief Judge cannot rule in a case, the next highest in the Chief Judge poll becomes the deputy, and thus takes over Chief Judgeship (for example, if Centralis wins, then he cannot be Chief Judge for that particular case, so we have a Deputy who can fill in).

          I don't see why Centralis should be forbidden from hearing the case. They're essentially in there as ODSN peacekeepers, representatives of the judges.

          Myself on the other hand is a different kettle of fish. I will of course stand down from hearing the case, and ask that Redfern take my place for the duration of it. Assuming I become a judge and not Redfern anyway.

            No. 5 Judges are chosen in case some are involved in the case, as we only need 3 to hear it. So no other judges will be appointed, just the top 5.

            Centralis should be banned from hearing it. The ODSN have no say in this, and they have declared their support for one nation. Moreover, their ties with Alecrast hardly make them impartial. They have declared their opinions already, so cannot be unbiased IMHO. Therefore, I would ask GT to not be a judge for this case.

              Ah, very well then. I was under the mistaken impression that the ODSN was the arm of the courts.

                No. The ODSN was a seperate entity, an alliance, that was started by a group of countries, primarily concerned with their own defense and security. Akiria has no part in this, either does the court or the UN. All power it has is self-granted.

                  I think it's just the competition. With 9 relatively active and respected members up for the vote, some are bound to get a little left out. I'm sure you'd do very well as a Judge, but you can only choose 5.

                    Ok.. since everyone issued an election campaign, than here is mine.

                    Vote me, and I'll send you all a Ferrari F40 of the 1987 (or if you prefer a Lamboghini Diablo of the 1990)*

                    *note, the cars are little models scale 1:18

                        ...actually does that mean I should still get one?

                        BTW, I am actually 1:18 the size of a normal person. So it'd be a great acquisition!

                        Back ON topic...
                        Is the courst going to be 1 head judges & 5 judges? Or 5 judges one of which has been elected head judge? (I did actually vote in both polls, but picked my head judge choice from one of my judge choices).

                          The latter: it will be 5 Judges, of which 1 will be the Chief Judge. I am presuming that the person that comes top of the Chief Justice Poll will be one of the top 5. It would be quite amazing if that did not happen.

                          Is this campaigning, or just blatant bribes

                          Wanted: Drogue for Judge (and Chief Judge)
                          Reward: An impartial, fair, neutral, peaceful and (hopefully) enjoyable Court.

                          and if you don't my military will squish you to a pulp

                              Seems we have a tie between red_jon and Archaic. I suppose a run-off is in order?
