1. This shall be titled the Acceptance of the case of Chanku L. Kestar v. Gabriel "Pengu" Penguon
Accepted Case
2. The case filed by Chanku L. Kestar against Gabriel Penguon (Listed as Pengu), shall be accepted
3. The title Styling as stated in Section 4.1 of the Judicial Offices act shall be considered null for this case, and Section 4 of this act shall take it's place.
4. When a Court is formed and a case brought before it, the case is to be named as follows:
[CASE NUMBER] [PLAINTIFF NAME]v[DEFENDANT NAME]-[CHIEF JUSTICE][DATE]
The public record kept by the court must then outline the name and charge of the defendant, the name of the Chief Justice, the name of the Plaintiff and the names of the Associate Judges. This record shall be updated to list witnesses called and by whom.

The following was provided in the Citizen's Platform by the Plaintiff.

Petitioner: Chanku L. Kestar
Type of Petition: Violation of Legal Proceedings of the Underhusen
Defendants: Pengu
Violations of Law: Violation of Article 12(e) of the Procedural Rules of the Underhusen.
Relevant Law:

(e) The Speaker must select a Speaker Pro Tempore within one week of being elected. Should the Speaker fail to select a Speaker Pro Tempore then the Speaker Pro Tempore is the candidate that got the second most amount of votes, in the election of the Speaker; should there have been an election with more than one candidate then, in the event of a tie for second place, the Speaker must choose one of the candidates. If the speaker fails to do so the monarch is to choose a Speaker Pro Tempore out of the tied candidates. Furthermore should there have been no other candidates in the election of the speaker, then one will be chosen at random from the members of the Underhusen, excluding the Speaker.

This will be a vote between @Point Breeze, @Laurentus, and @HannahB.  @Chanku is asked to please abstain from voting as he is the Plaintiff, and I will also be abstaining as I am the Defendant.

The remaining Skrifa may vote AYE or NAY on this.  As this is both an important vote as well as an experiment with only 3 Skrifa, Abstaining would hurt the process, and while it's still technically allowed until a law is made preventing it, it's requested that you refrain from doing so.

I was planning to Abstain anyways

Also just to note this is why we need better acceptance procedures, or any acceptance procedures.

Aye.

Aye.

Aye

With three votes AYE, this passes.  I'm not exactly sure what happens now.

To the OH

I'll leave a note for @Wuufu then.
