RZ1 - Nomination of an Admiral

Published in Clark #1



Appointement

43RZ1: Nomination of an Admiral

WHEREAS El Marì Rexhital Talossan (MRT) is currently (and has always been) without an Admiral,

WHEREAS 35RZ32, The Naval Reorganization Act, mandates that the MRT be administered by an Admiral and,

WHEREAS 35RZ32 requires that any nominee to the rank and post of Admiral be appointed by the Monarch following confirmation of the Ziu in the form of an affirmative majority vote and,

WHEREAS the nominee has shown true, diligent, and faithful service over the last four plus years and will continue to do so now,

THEREFORE, I, Brad Holmes, Minister of Defence of the Kingdom of Talossa, do nominate and highly recommend promoting Tímoþi M. Asmourescu, Capitán, MRT, to the rank and post of Amirál, MRT.

Uréu q'estadra sa:Brad Holmes (Minister of Defence, Senator, Atatürk)


Scribe's Note: Talossa's first Admiral was Kurt Litscher, friend of the then Defence Minister. Mr Litscher supplied the Kingdom with use of a sailboat and was declared Admiral of the Fleet by passage of 6RC57, dated November 30, 1987.

This measure was ratified with overwhelming support from both chambers of the Ziu. His Majesty, King John, thereafter promoted and appointed Captain Asmourescu as Talossa's first Admiral of the modern Navy with the following proclamation:

Pursuant to the provision of 35RZ32, The Naval Reorganization Act, that the Admiral is "appointed by the Monarch upon recommendation by the Defence Minister and approved by a majority vote in the Ziu", and laying aside considerations of syntax,

We, John, King of Talossa and Cézembre, etc., do hereby, upon the nomination of the Defense Minister and the ratification of the Ziu, appoint our trusty and well-beloved subject Tímoþi M. Asmourescu, Capitán, MRT, to the rank and post of Amirál, MRT. We are utterly confident of Admiral Asmorescu's loyalty and zeal for the Kingdom of Talossa, and are very happy to make this appointment.

Done under Our hand royal in the city of Denver in Colorado, this 29th day of November (being the Vigil of the Feast of Saint Andrew Apostle and Martyr) in the year of salvation 2011, of the independence of Talossa the 32nd, and of Our reign the 5th.

— John Regeu

RZ2 - The Legal Appeals Act

Published in Clark #1



Statute

43RZ2: The Legal Appeals Act

WHEREAS our ever growing legal system now has a functioning inferior court and

WHEREAS decisions by all inferior national and provincial courts may be appealed to the Uppermost Cort (OrgLaw Article XVII, Section 9 for provincial courts) and

WHEREAS since we're organizing everything else, we might as well put a little structure to how appeals shall be handled so

THEREFORE, it shall be understood that any provincial court decision may be appealed at the National level before the lowest inferior court and that any decision by this court may be appealed to the Uppermost Cort. National courts shall not interpret or rule on matters of provincial law unless the province has no system of courts, has not proclaimed a constitution or has standing law that matters of provincial law be handled through National Courts. Rather, the decisions of these courts will ensure no provincial court decision runs contrary to the Organic or Statutory Laws of the Kingdom, and that the rights of all involves parties, as guaranteed by the Rights and Covenants of the Organic Law, are protected.

FURTHERMORE, all appeals, as with other court actions, shall be filed with the Clerk of Courts. Upon official judicial assignment, the Justice(s), Judge or Magistrate may either dismiss the case, by declining to hear it, or begin hearing opening arguments in the matter as presented by all relevant parties.

FURTHERMORE, appeals or other actions brought before the Uppermost Cort shall be heard within 90 calendar days from the date of assignment by the Clerk of Courts. Should this time elapse and no decision be rendered as to whether the Uppermost Cort will hear the matter brought before it, the court will have implied unwillingness to hear the case and the decision of the lower court shall be upheld without prejudice. Parties may then re-file their appeal a final time after waiting an additional 90 days. If the court declines to hear, or fails to respond within 90 days, the decision of the lower court shall be upheld and no further appeal shall be permitted.

RZ8 - An Act to Amend 43RZ5

Published in Clark #2



Ammendement

WHEREAS 42RZ5 - The Legal Representation Act is, perhaps, not as comprehensive as we could have hoped for initially and

WHEREAS, we can totally amend it and make it even better and

WHEREAS, having discussed the matter thoroughly, we feel it would be in the best interest to give individuals a way to seek representation in the event an admitted attorney is unavailable so

THEREFORE, 42RZ5 - The Legal Representation Act is hereby amended as follows:

Sections 1 through 7 shall remain unchanged with numbering preserved, and the following shall be added:

8. Individuals who are party to an action brought before a Court of the realm and cannot find suitable legal representation due to a shortage of qualified practitioners of law, conflicts of interest or for personal reasons to be outlined in a petition presented before the cort, may apply for a waiver to permit any adult Talossan citizen to represent them before the Cort in a specified legal action serving as a legal proxy.

9. Individuals operating under waiver shall not be entitled to present themselves as attorneys, lawyers, barristers, solicitors, or councillor/counselor-at-law, nor shall approval of such waiver imply membership in the Talossan Bar.

10. Petitions for waiver shall be made to the Cort in which the action is to be brought. All waivers shall expire upon the final disposition of the case and shall remain in force through any appeal. Waivers granted by a lower court need not be renewed or reissued if the action is brought before the Uppermost Cort in appeal. Waivers may be terminated by the petitioner or the proxy at any time during court proceedings and shall notify the Court of said termination within 48 hours of its effective date. Waivers may be withdrawn through judicial order in the event of misconduct or inadequate representation.

11. Corts shall grant petitioned waivers unless the designated proxy has been convicted of a felony, has presented themselves unlawfully to be an attorney, lawyer, barrister, solicitor or councillor/counselor of law, has falsely claimed Bar membership or other official standing within the Talossan Bar or has received monetary compensation or other financial consideration in exchange for his/her representational duties or when a suitable member of the bar is available for representation in the matter, unencumbered by conflicts of interest or personal disputes.

RZ12 - The Act of Oblivion

Published in Clark #3



Approved but Ephemeral

43RZ12: The Act of Oblivion

WHEREAS there seems to exist some doubt (in spite of the Statutes of Limitations) as to whether, should some participant in the so-called rebellion of 2004 become a Talossan citizen, he could be charged in the Talossan courts for things that happened back then, and

WHEREAS we want to remove any such doubt, since all that stuff should be forgiven and (except as a historical and academic exercise) forgotten, and

WHEREAS we want to promote friendship, cooperation, and goodwill as much as possible with members of the Talossan Republic, and

WHEREAS it's just the Right Thing to Do,

RZ14 - The Riverside Park Renaming Act

Published in Clark #4



Statute

Whereas John Woolley has been a citizen of Talossa for some time now

Whereas he was a fantastic Secretary of State

whereas he became King of the nation

Whereas he has been our King since the days of the great separation

Whereas he has been a fair and great King

Whereas we should honour the time and dedication that he has put into being our king

and we should honour the time and dedication that he has put into Talossa in general

Furthermore we should start a new tradition of naming things in Talossa after the people who are great Talossans so that they are remembered in history no matter what happens in the future

Therefore be it enacted by the Ziu that "Riverside Park", located in the Benito province of the Kingdom of Talossa, surrounded by East Locust Street to the North, The river to the West, North Oakland Avenue to the East and East Park Place to the South, be renamed to "King John Woolley on the Riverside Park".

RZ15 - The Judicial Retirement Act

Published in Clark #4



Statute

43RZ15 – The Judicial Retirement Act

WHEREAS Justices, Judges and Magistrates have a tendency to fall inactive andWHEREAS inactive courts can gunk up the works and

WHEREAS we can always remove inactive Jurists but

WHEREAS removing someone from office carries with it a certain degree of embarrassment so

THEREFORE, a system of Judicial Retirement is established.

1. Justices of the Uppermost Cort and Judges of any inferior court, may retire through voluntary leave of office. This shall be accomplished through submitting a letter of retirement to the King. The retirement shall take effect immediately upon confirmed receipt by the King or an authorized representative.

2. Justices (or Judges) may be compelled to retire through organic removal from office through an act of the Ziu in accordance with Article XVI Section 1 of the Organic Law. In such case, the Ziu shall stipulate whether the removal is punitive in nature or simply to compel retirement. In either case, such measure shall include a clear and objective narrative which highlights the misconduct or negligence which resulted in a punitive removal from office, or the merits and career highlights of a retired Jurist, respectively.

3. Retired Justices shall enjoy the style "Very Honourable Mister/Madame" for life in commemoration of their service to the Nation, and may use the title "Justice Emeritus."

4. Retired Judges or Magistrates shall enjoy the style "Honorable Mister/Madame" for life in commemoration of their service to the Nation, and may utilize the title "Retired Judge/Magistrate."

5. Retired status will be honorary in nature and shall not confer any authority or responsibility within any Talossan Court or the Royal Talossan Bar or over its members, students or associates. Neither shall these titles, in and of themselves, confer membership in the Royal Talossan Bar enabling the holder to engage in the practice of law.

6. Retired status can be revoked only in the event of a conviction by a Talossan Court for misconduct while serving in a judicial capacity. In the event of such conviction, revocation of retirement privileges shall be contained as part of the sentencing order. Retired status can also be revoked by the Ziu through majority vote and approval by the Monarch. Such legislative action can be taken only after the retiree has been convicted by a Talossan Court for misconduct while serving in a judicial capacity and only after all appeals have been exhausted.

7. Retired status will also be revoked in the event the retiree shall be convicted of a felony by any Court of the Realm. Felony convictions by a provincial court shall be forwarded to the Minister of Justice for review. If cause for revocation of retirement status is found based upon the nature of the conviction, the Minister of Justice shall propose or cause to be proposed a measure of the Ziu to revoke any and all privileges of retirement from the accused, after all appeals have been exhausted.

8. Retired status shall be considered waived if a retired Justice, Judge or Magistrate resigns his/her citizenship and shall be considered revoked if the retiree has his/her citizenship terminated by a Court of the Realm.

RZ16 - The Party Registration Regularity Act

Published in Clark #5



Statute

43RZ16 – The Party Registration Regularity Act
WHEREAS the current law on how parties register themselves is not clear, and

WHEREAS something as important as election law requires clarity, now

THEREFORE we, the Ziu, enact that:

1. Each party has the responsibility of communicating to the Secretary of State a list of its authorized agents and the name of its leader, and of updating the same.

2. In any case where the authorized agents of a party or its leadership are a matter of dispute in a manner affecting party registration or the filling of empty seats in the Cosa, the Secretary of State shall make a good-faith effort to determine which disputant has the best right to name such, taking into consideration the internal rules of the party. Each other disputant shall have the opportunity to register under a party name that differentiates it from the other disputants.

3. In any case where the authorized agents of a party or its leadership are a matter of dispute in a manner affecting party registration or the filling of empty seats in the Cosa, and the Secretary of State is unable to determine that any of the disputing claimants to a party has a best right to name such, each disputant shall have the opportunity to register under a party name that differentiates it from the other disputants. In such a case as to leadership, the original party shall be considered to not have a functional leader for the purposes of Article VII, Section 9 of the Organic Law.

RZ18 - The More Reasonable Deadline Amendment

Published in Clark #5



Approved by a referendum

43RZ18 – The More Reasonable Deadline Amendment
Whereas Talossan affairs usually take some time, and

Whereas after last general elections appointing a seneschal took a bit too much time, and

Whereas the MRP already pointed out one week might not be enough even before those elections, and

Whereas appointing a seneschal will take even more time when no single party holds more than 100 seats in the cosa, and

Whereas appointing someone without the support of a cosa majority will eventually result in new elections anyway, now

Therefore Article XI, section 2 of the organic law will be amended to read:

"The King appoints the Seneschál. If a single party occupies a majority of the seats in the Cosâ, the King shall choose as PM whichever individual shall be designated by that party. If no single party has a majority, the King shall appoint a Seneschál after consulting party leaders with the objective of finding a PM who can be sustained in subsequent Votes of Confidence by a majority of seats in the Cosâ. The King must appoint a new Seneschál or announce the continuation of the incumbent in office within one month of the end of elections, or, if after one month no candidate can be appointed with the support of a cosa majority, dissolve the cosa after the first clark and call for new elections.

RZ19 - The "Cantons Are Talossan, not American" Amendment

Published in Clark #5



Approved by a referendum

43RZ19 – The "Cantons Are Talossan, not American" Amendment
WHEREAS Article XVII, Section 1 of the Organic Law divides Provinces into Cantons, which are stated to be equivalent to census tracts, and

WHEREAS the U.S. Census Bureau has changed the borders of the census tracts within the city of Milwaukee, and

WHEREAS Talossa is not part of the United States, so we shouldn't change our historic divisions just because the U.S. thinks we should,

THEREFORE Section 1 of Article XVII is hereby amended to read:
The metropolitan territory of Talossa is subdivided into Cantons (els Cantons) and Provinces. Cantons are defined according to historical borders, but Provinces may, subject to approval by the Ziu, alter these borders, including to create new Cantons. Provinces may also establish such internal subdivisions as they find necessary or convenient for local government. The Canton is the smallest possible territorial subdivision which can be transferred from one Provincial jurisdiction to another.

RZ24 - The Our Pets are Talossan Too! Act

Published in Clark #6



Statute

43RZ24 – The Our Pets are Talossan Too! Act

WHEREAS many Talossans own pets and many of us love animals more than we do some humans, and

WHEREAS that might be a bit troubling from a philosophical point of view, but, it is what it is, and

WHEREAS I have a dog (rescued), named Lucy (Lutzía), and she has some congenital problems with her legs and paws and despite this she shows an extreme level of endurance and agility and defies the odds and astounds me everyday, not only with that, but with her incredible mind and personality too; and also her caring side, which exhibited a few weeks ago when she used her nose to lift the cat up onto the window ledge after said cat made a total mess of a jump and was left dangling, and this, to me, is a Talossan dog, and

WHEREAS I have a cat who is absent minded and clumsy and extremely chatty to the point of annoyance and she is fussy with her food and only drinks from the bath taps, and this, to me, is a Talossan cat, and

WHEREAS Senator Mick Preston currently owns two Rescue dogs. One is a Whippet - hence his "Fantasy" team name, the "Fighting Whippets", and the other is a Shelter-rescue dog - and both are strong in morals, strong in ideal, and strong in forgiving. Both animals, to S:r Preston at least, are Talossan, and

WHEREAS The King also has a dog which is the coolest Royal dog ever and it whoops a Corgi's ass, paws down, and is the Official dog of the Kingdom and is, without doubt, a Talossan dog, and

WHEREAS Flip Molinar has two dogs and one cat who provide him with extreme comfort and security much like Talossa herself, which, in turn, provides to each of her citizens the safety and comfort of a loving and caring society, and

WHEREAS Dien Tresplet, according to him, has one of the coolest pets throughout Talossa, Walter the Cat (Viult dal cäts), and along with S:reu Molinar also feels extreme comfort and security (from mice anyway) resulting from ownership, and

WHEREAS Ián Anglatzarâ is not sure if his Kittens are Talossan, but they are out of their minds and tearing down his house anyway, and

WHEREAS Davíu Lundescu's dog started making noise right after my dog started making noise, and

WHEREAS this list could probably go on and on but I find it sufficient enough to say that most of us have animals and the personality of these animals both supplement and compliment the character of the owner and vice versa and if the owner is Talossan then it is fair to say the animal is too, and

WHEREAS Baron Hooligan has pointed out that animals that have a predilection for beer are also Talossan, so

THEREFORE be it resolved by the Ziu that animals and pets belonging to owners of Talossan citizenship shall be considered to be Talossan-in-nature.

ADDITIONALLY any animal that shows an appreciation for beer or Talossan cuisine shall also be considered to be Talossan-in-nature.

FURTHERMORE Talossan citizens are encouraged to know the Talossan name of their furry, feathered, scaled or otherwise critters.

RZ25 - The Take Me to the River Omnibus Act

Published in Clark #6



Approved by a referendum

43RZ25 – The Take Me to the River Omnibus Act

WHEREAS the so-called "reunision" of the Talossan people is to be accomplished soon, thanks to the successful completion of the discussions that determined the particular details of this great event, and

WHEREAS one of these details is the creation of a new province, La Provinçù Liveradâ da Fiôvâ, territory for which has already been graciously conceded by acts of the Maritiimi-Maxhestic Corporative Chamber and the Maricopa Cabana, and

WHEREAS the existence of this new province requires acknowledgement and accommodation in certain portions of Organic and Statutory law, and

WHEREAS since I guess that pretty much sets the stage for what this bill is all about, rather than just go on and on with more WHEREAS's, I'll go ahead and get on with it, so now

THEREFORE be it acknowledged by the Ziu of the Kingdom of Talossa that:
Section 1. Should the province of Fiova be created during the session of any Cosa, the holder of the Senate seat to which that province is entitled shall be named by the Executive Officer of the province. Regardless, the holder of the seat shall be decided at the General Election first occurring following reunision, according to the provisions of Section 3 of this act.
FURTHERMORE, be it recommended by the Ziu of the Kingdom of Talossa that the amendment to Organic Law specified below be ratified by referendum to effect the following change:
Section 2. That Section 3 of Article IV be amended to read: Each time the Cosa shall be dissolved, there shall be an election for one-third of the total Senate seats (rounded to the nearest whole number). The exact fixed order of rotation of provinces for elections shall be set by law and shall require two-thirds vote in the Cosa with approval by the King and the Senäts to be modified.
ADDITIONALLY, be it enacted by the Ziu of the Kingdom of Talossa that upon the ratification of the amendment to Organic Law proposed by Section 2 of this Act and the establishment of the Talossan province of Fiova, the following shall come immediately into force:
Section 3. In accordance with Article IV, Section 3, the fixed order for the election of Senators to the Senate shall be described as follows:
• Upon the dissolution of a Cosa, election to three Senate seats shall be held, in addition to those by-elections necessary to elect Senators to unfilled terms being held on an interim basis by an appointed Senator.
• The initial three such seats shall include the seat for Fiova and the two Senate seats which were originally scheduled for election.
• Thereafter, Senatorial seats shall be elected at each Cosa according to the following rotation: Vuode, Atatürk, Cézembre, Florencia, Maricopa, Maritiimi-Maxhestic, and Benito, with Fiova inserted into this list immediately before the first of the two Senate seats also being elected concurrently with the first election to the Senate seat for Fiova.
[As a practical concern, assuming this omnibus comes into force for elections to the 44th Cosa, the following will be the fixed rotation cycle.]

ELECTED WITH THE... SENATORS FOR...
44th Cosa Fiova, Maritiimi-Maxhestic, Benito
45th Cosa Vuode, Ataturk, Cézembre
46th Cosa Florencia, Maricopa, Fiova
47th Cosa Maritiimi-Maxhestic, Benito, Vuode
48th Cosa Ataturk, Cézembre, Florencia
49th Cosa Maricopa, Fiova, Maritiimi-Maxhestic
50th Cosa Benito, Vuode, Ataturk
51th Cosa Cézembre, Florencia, Maricopa
Section 4. Talossan statutory law 34RZ9, concerning catchment areas of the provinces of the Kingdom of Talossa, is amended by:
a) The removal of the words "Portugal," and "Brazil and" from section 9.

b) The removal of the words "Montana," "North Dakota, South Dakota," and "Kansas and Nebraska" from section 10.

c) The removal of the words "Arkansas," "Louisiana," "Missouri," "and Vietnam, plus all island nations of the Pacific and Indian Oceans not listed elsewhere, including New Zealand, Papua New Guinea", and "and Australia" from section 11.

d) The removal of the words "Macedonia, Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Slovenia, Croatia, Kosovo, Albania, Czech Republic, Slovakia" from section 12.

e) The addition of a new section, numbered "Section 13" and causing the renumbering of the current section 13 to become 14, reading:
13. FIOVA PROVINCE. Talossan citizens living in the following areas shall be assigned to Fiova Province: The U.S. states of Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Kansas, Nebraska, Arkansas, Louisiana, Missouri, the nations of Australia, New Zealand, Portugal, Brazil, Macedonia, Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Slovenia, Croatia, Kosovo, Albania, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and all nations of Asia or the Pacific and Indian Oceans not included elsewhere.
f) The addition of the province of Fiova, immediately prior to "Atatürk", in the list appearing in the newly renumbered section 14b.

RZ26 - The Umpteen

Published in Clark #6



Repealing

43RZ26 – The Umpteen-and-One is Too Many Act

WHEREAS earlier in this Cosa, the passage of 43RZ10 empowered the Seneschal to petition the Crown for immediate grants of citizenship into any specific province, as exceptions to the normal immigration process, and

WHEREAS the reason this legislation was passed was to accommodate the special needs of Reunision, and

WHEREAS those special needs are happily no longer extant, and

WHEREAS this Ziu sees no reason why the power to exempt persons from the normal immigration process should be extended, and

WHEREAS His Majesty's Government — having vowed only to employ this legislatively-granted power for the purposes of Reunision, and now having done so — also concurs that the exceptional power should not remain in law, now

THEREFORE the Ziu of the Kingdom of Talossa hereby repeals 43RZ10, restoring 35RZ22, The Umpteenth Immigration Reform Act, to its earlier form, by the removal of Section 10.

RZ27 - The Proud Mary Act

Published in Clark #6



Statute

43RZ27 – The Proud Mary Act

WHEREAS the Organic Law of the Kingdom of Talossa specifies that should ten or more citizens indicate an intention to together form a new province, become citizens thereof, and provide Organic government for the same, the Ziu may make such provisions as to effect the creation and establishment of such a province upon equal footing with all other provinces, and

WHEREAS, with the grand completion of the process of Reunision, there is every indication that at least ten Erteiers do, in fact, intend to become citizens of a province to be known as La Provinçù Liverada da Fiova, and

WHEREAS the Maritiimi-Maxhestic Provincial Assembly and the Maricopa Cabana have both enacted legislation which cedes specific territory, currently administered by those provinces, to the control of a newly-created province of Fiova, once established, and

WHEREAS there are still a few things to be done to reach the point where it is established, but this rubber-stamp from the Ziu is necessary and can be written now, to take effect as soon as possible, now

THEREFORE, effective immediately upon the fulfillment of the Organic requirements necessary for creation of the new Province of Fiova, specifically
(1) that ten or more recipients of grants of citizenship given by the favour and pleasure of His Majesty the King in answer to either of the two petitions made to the Crown by the Seneschal of the Kingdom of Talossa — one such petition having been made on 12 March 2012 to accommodate one citizen, and the other having been made on 20 April 2012 to accommodate fourteen citizens — do indicate their intention to become citizens of the province of Fiova,
(2) that a Constitution for the said province, satisfying the Crown as to its compliance with Organic Law, has been promulgated by the Crown or its duly appointed representative, and
(3) that a provincial Government has been elected according to the provisions of the said Constitution,
the Ziu of the Kingdom of Talossa recognises La Provinçù Liverada da Fiova as being fully established and completely chartered, entitled to hold seats in the Talossan Senate no greater or fewer in number than those entitled to any and all other provinces.

MOREOVER, upon said establishment, the Ziu most humbly petitions the Crown to at once instruct His Majesty's Chancery to accordingly modify the provincial assignments of the said citizens described above who had declared their intention to become citizens of the Province of Fiova.

ADDITIONALLY, immediately upon fulfilment of the said conditions, the Ziu does further assign the canton of Paliaçelia (Buffonia, US Census Tract 144) and a canton comprised of Port Maxhestic west of North Lincoln Memorial Drive (the portions of US Census Tract 1874 within Talossan territory) to the Free Province of Fiova, in accordance with the cessions of territory by the Provinces of Maritiimi-Maxhestic and Maricopa.

FURTHERMORE, immediately upon the enactment of the other clauses of this act, the Ziu does reassign the canton of Vilatx Freiric (Frédéricville, US Census Tract 143) from the Province of Maricopa to the Province of Maritiimi-Maxhestic, in accordance with the authorisation by the former and the desires of the latter.

FINALLY, the Ziu of the Kingdom of Talossa does hereby instruct the Big Wheel to keep on turnin', and Proud Mary to keep on burnin'. Reserving to itself the power to enact and provide for the application of legal penalties for any refusal to heed these mandates, the Ziu strongly admonishes the said Wheel and the said Mary that these edicts must needs-be not fail to be followed, for it is now the case that we're rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river.

RZ28 - The Bernard P. Fife Act

Published in Clark #6



Statute

43RZ28 – The Bernard P. Fife Act

WHEREAS the office of Clerk of Courts was established in 42RZ4 and

WHEREAS the office is necessary to channel cases through judicial channels and

WHEREAS what is not addressed in that act is what happens in the event of an excusable absence which prevents the Clerk from assigning a case within the 72 hour window so

THEREFORE, in the event the clerk fails to assign a case within the 72 hour window and such tardiness is result of one or more of the following conditions:

1.) Active Military Service (In the Armed Forces of Talossa or an Allied Nation)

2.) Birth or Death of an immediate family member

3.) Marriage or Divorce

4.) Any circumstance which is beyond the power or control of the Clerk and which would hinder a reasonable person from executing these duties

the Clerk's absence shall be deemed excused and no further penalty should be pursued.

In the event the clerk anticipates a length absence, even for an excused purpose, s/he should consider resignation to ensure the people are adequately served.

FURTHERMORE, the Clerk may deputize Court Officers to assist in the execution of these duties. Such deputization shall be made publicly by the Clerk and may be for a temporary or indefinite term, which the Clerk shall stipulate in the public notice of deputization.

1. The Deputized Officer shall have authority to assign judicial cases immediately after the initial 72 hours have passed from the initial filing if the Clerk fails to make the assignment during that time period.

2. The Deputized Officer shall follow the procedures set forth in the Clerk of Courts Act with regards to the assignment of cases and shall do so impartially without regard for political, personal or financial consideration.

3. The Officer shall serve at the pleasure of the King and may be removed by the King at any time. However, the principal supervision of the Officer shall fall to the Clerk of Courts, who shall retain the right to dismiss the Officer as well.

4. Due to the nature of these duties, no deputy shall be appointed who is seated on the bench of the Uppermost Cort or any inferior cort. Nor shall any appointee hold the portfolio of Attorney General or Minister of Justice.

5. The Deputy shall be permitted to make the initial judicial assignment (that is, the assignment within the initial 72 hour window) in situations where the Clerk is party to a filed case or where another conflict of interest would prevent the Clerk from serving on a particular case filing.

43RZ31 – Appointments to the Magistracy

WHEREAS the Kingdom yearns for qualified minds to decide matters of law and

WHEREAS now that we have more people, we can spread around some of the responsibility so

THEREFORE, we hereby nominate and approve the following appointments to the Magistracy:

Martì Prevuost - S:reu Prevuost, a former Member of the Cosa, has been an active participant in judicial affairs, presenting a friend of the court brief in defence of the Government in a matter before the Magistracy.

RZ32 - The Too Many Inactive Cooks Amendment

Published in Clark #6



Approved by a referendum

43RZ32 – The Too Many Inactive Cooks Amendment
WHEREAS one inactive Justice renders the entire Cort pu Inalt inactive, and this seems like a negative thing, and

WHEREAS if Gloria Estefan knew about this she'd be angry,

THEREFORE be it resolved by the Ziu of the Kingdom of Talossa that the following resolution be presented for ratification by the people:

RESOLVED, that Article XVI of the Organic Law of the Kingdom of Talossa be amended by alteration of Section, so that it will read:

Section 8. No court shall issue any authoritative decision without the fullest opportunity for all members assigned to a case to consider the case in question. However, a single Justice of the Uppermost Cort may hear a case on his own if this is acceptable to the other two members of the Cort. He shall be appointed to do so by unanimous vote of the entire three-person Cort. If, after every reasonable attempt is made to contact a member of the Cort, and three weeks (21 days) has passed since initial contact without any response, their silence shall be read as consent that an individual Justice may hear the case in question on his own. The duly nominated (either by active agreement or silence) Justice shall render a decision on the case as if he were a majority of the whole Cort. His decision becomes that of the Cort itself and may not be appealed.

RZ33 - The Three

Published in Clark #6



Approved by a referendum

43RZ33 – The Three-Strike Amendment
WHEREAS the current wording of Article XVIII Section 10 of the Organic Law defines "intentional deliberate voluntary" non-voting in three consecutive elections to the Cosa to be tantamount to a citizen's renouncing his citizenship, but doesn't require any actual proof or evidence beyond his simply not voting — which non-voting could be due to inadvertence, ignorance, or even a distate for political participation, none of which conditions is or should be considered synonymous with no longer desiring to be a citizen, and

WHEREAS the exception granted in the Article for persons who don't want to vote "for reasons of conscience" isn't broad enough, since someone may not want to vote simply out of lack of interest in the election, or fatigue with politics in general, or any number of other reasons, and

WHEREAS the King's power of clemency is defined as being applicable only in cases in which "it is clear that the non-vote was unintentional or there were mitigating or extenuating circumstances such as accidents or technical mistakes", which again is too limiting, and doesn't allow — as it should — for cases in which the non-voter's intention was somewhat less than clear, or when it was clear that he intended not to vote but not for any reason that should get his name removed from the citizenship rolls, and

WHEREAS we ought to err on the side of NOT erasing someone's name from the rolls, and

WHEREAS that would be best accomplished by allowing the Secretary of State and the King a bit more leeway in applying the "three-strikes" principle,

THEREFORE the Ziu approves the following amendment to the Organic Law, and transmits it to the people for ratification.

Article XVIII Section 10 of the Organic Law is amended to read, in whole:
If any citizen should fail to vote in an election for the Cosa, he shall be deemed to have incurred a "strike", unless the Secretary of State believes that the failure to vote may have been unintentional, or the King believes that the citizen's record and the circumstances of his failure to vote warrant an exception being made, in either of which cases no strike shall be incurred. If any citizen incurs strikes in three consecutive elections, he shall be deemed to have renounced his citizenship.

RZ36 - The Senate Election Details Amendment

Published in Clark #6



Approved by a referendum

43RZ36 – The Senate Election Details Amendment
WHEREAS Article V, section 4 of the OrgLaw is utterly unnecessary, quite vague, and rather confusing, and

WHEREAS Article IV, section 5 is a bit wordy and "huh?"-inducing as well, and

WHEREAS someone might very well want to vote for the Cosa, but not vote for a Senate candidate, and

WHEREAS under our customary intrepretation of Article IV, section 5, it is impossible for a voter to vote for the Cosa but not vote for Senate, because leaving a blank in the "Senate" part of his ballot will be interpreted as a vote for the candidate endorsed by the party he chose for the Cosa,

THEREFORE the Ziu hereby approves this amendment to the Organic Law, and transmits it to the nation for ratification:

1. Article V, section 4
Senators shall as far as is practicable be citizens of the Province in which they were chosen. Qualified citizen[s] from other provinces may receive votes in an election only if no votes have been received on the sixteenth day of the election period.
is deleted.

2. Article IV, section 5
Political parties may "endorse" individual candidates for the Senate, one candidate per party per province. In the event that a voter does not specify an individual candidate for Senate on his ballot, his vote for a political party shall apply to the candidate endorsed by that party. A voter may always vote for a different Senate candidate than the one endorsed by the party of his choice, by indicating said candidate on the ballot.
is amended to read
A political partiy may endorse a candidate for any vacant Senate seat. In the event that a voter specifies that party as his choice for that Senate seat, his vote shall be counted for the candidate so endorsed.
