    Title
    1. This act shall be titled the Fundamental Laws Justice and Legislation Revision Act

    Amendments
    2. Article I, Section 15 of the Fundamental Laws shall be amended to read as follows:
    Quote
    15. The Storting shall have the authority to interpret these Fundamental Laws and statutory laws in acts of definition. The Storting may also determine how a court of law issues rulings and verdicts in regards to violation of these laws and set punishments for a court of law to use in violations of those laws, within the parameters of these Fundamental Laws and any other laws.

    3. Article I, Section 16 shall be rendered null and void with all following sections being renumbered accordingly

    4. Article III, Section 1 shall be amended to read as follows:
    Quote
    1. Upon the filing of cases within the Storting, the Monarch shall select at random a Peer of the Overhusen and two Skrifa of the Underhusen to serve as Justices in a judicial panel, provided the selected person is not the Plaintiff or Defendant. The Peer shall serve as Chief Justice, and the Skrifa shall serve as Associate Justices. The Monarch is ineligible to serve on judicial panels.

    5. Article III shall gain a new section, numbered Section 5, which shall read as follows:
    Quote
    5. A Judicial Panel shall have the authority to interpret these Fundamental Laws and statutory laws and consider the constitutionality over laws brought before the Panel, determine rulings and verdicts in regard to violations of these laws, and determine punishments for violations of these laws within the parameters of these Fundamental Laws and any other laws.

    6. Article III shall gain a new section, numbered Section 6, which shall read as follows:
    Quote
    6. A Judicial Panel shall have the authority to issue advisory opinions on matters of constitutionality and legality to anyone who has been determined to have standing to seek an advisory opinion.

    I hereby present this to the Underhusen for Debate. Debate shall last for forty-eight (48) hours, unless expedited, after which it will be open for any motion. All of these motions, except tabling, requires a second to pass. Tabling requires three skrifa to second the motion to table, other than myself unless the Underhusen is equally divided in a motion to table.

  • The first two quotes are just slightly different wordings that are better than the old ones.

    I like the last two quotes as well because they clarify who has the right to interpret the laws of Wintreath when court is in session (not that that happens mich anyway).

  • I would like to point out that this is not the first time this bill has been introduced into the Underhusen, the first time it died because of a lack of activity. Some of the people from that session are in this session, so there may be a lack of need to discuss it. Although I would like for the Citizenry to weigh in on this, and I would like it if the secretary of the Underhusen, @Gattoartico , would place a copy of this bill in the Citizen's Platform.

  • I would argue that it is the Skrifa's responsibility to do that, as they are the ones that ran. After all the UH functioned well for a while prior to mentioning became a thing.

    End of Time

    I remember there in the dawn,
    When the suns rose and rose,
    That never could I know,
    A sight more grand than this.

    Now I sit here in the dusk,
    While the suns die and die,
    That never will I see a sight more sad,
    Or a sight more beautiful.

    While the speaker normally refrains from doing this, I motion to extend debate for another forty-eight hours to allow the public to comment.
