The Constitutional Law of the Judicary

This law shall be a constitutional law.

I The Defender of the Law


The office of Defender of the Law is hereby established.
The Defender of the Law is appointed by the Council of Lazarene Security by majority vote, subject to 50%+1 confirmation by the Assembly.

The Defender of the Law shall serve until removal by the Assembly, automatic removal from office, or resignation.

The Defender of the Law shall have the responsibility and the non-exclusive right to:
1.scan the forums for possible violations of the Criminal Code
2.check any and all proposed and extant law with the compatibility with the constitutional laws and the Mandate 12 of Lazarus
3.open court cases against potential criminals
4. open court cases for potential contradictions between passed ordinary laws, constitutional laws, and the Mandate 12 of Lazarus.

The Defender of the Law shall have the right to be the Accuser in criminal cases until they decide not to be the Accuser, unless they are accused themselves.


II Basic Court Rules
In criminal cases, the Accused or their defender, and the Accuser shall be given sufficient time to review the evidence against their case and to present evidence for themselves.
In criminal cases, the Accused may select someone to defend them(the defender), with consent of the defender.
In criminal cases, when the Accused does not respond in a timely manner, the court shall ask for someone to be the defender of the Accused. This shall take at minimum 4 days.
If no one wants to defend an absent Accused after 7 days, the Accused shall be tried with the defence in absentia.

No Court Justice may partipiciate in a case as Judge if they are a witness to the case, an accuser or a defender.
No Court Justice may be made witness to a case because they saw something publicly avaliable for a high number of citizens.

A Court Justice may be temporarily replaced by a temporary Judge appointed by the Delegate.
An appointment that would assign more than one temporary Judge to a case has to be confirmed by the Assembly by 50%+1 majority vote.

III High Crimes
1. Treason
Anyone who willfully disrupts access to any Forum without being the root adminstrator or having permission of the root adminstrator, willfully helps someone to take, or attempt to take the delegate seat of the Nation States region Lazarus from its rightful owner, is guilty of treason.
The court shall remove citizienship from anyone guilty of treason permanently.
2. Voting Fraud
Anyone who willfully tries to alter or establish the vote count of a vote of Lazarus in an untruthful manner shall be guilty of Voting Fraud.
The court shall remove citizienship from anyone guilty of Voting Fraud.

IV Other crimes
Other crimes may be established by constitutional law.
Other crimes may also be established by a single Criminal Code as ordinary law.

This is my idea for a constitutional law of Lazarus.
