Her Imminence Adelaide von Graaf formally submits her name as a Candidate for Chief Justice of the Criminal Court,

Ms. von Graaf grew up amongst the nobility in the former Holy Empire, attending the Justice Academy for her secondary schooling before graduating with top marks and being accepted into the Arbiter University. Earning her Bachelors and then her Masters in Criminal Psychology and Judicial Implementation and Ethics. During her time earning her Masters, Adelaide was approached by the Guild of Judges, a Guild bent on the enforcement of Laws, securing Justice for all and seeking out those who do wrong and eliminating them accordingly. She accepted as the Guild of Judges is widely considered in the top five most respected in the nation. Rising through their ranks from Acolyte, then up to Arbiter and then to Justicar she earned a reputation of holding firm the laws and codes of Eddoren. At the age of 43 she became the Vallencourt City Chapter Master, before taking a big leap to being the Guild Master of the the Guild of Judges leading the Guild into an era of politics, and prosperity. When the Civil War erupted she sided with von Hohenheim and the Revolutionary Army, using the Arbiters and Justicars as Guardians of the Peace protecting the innocent and keeping law and order in areas heavily affected by fighting and the breakdown of government, these acts saved the lives of thousands of people. Following the Civil War, Adelaide stepped down as the Guild Master and became one of the Seven Justices on the High Court, the Supreme Court of the Land. Months later she was given the honorable appointment as a Criminal Justice to the IJS. She now seeks the nomination and election to head the IJS's Criminal Court as its First Chief Justice.

Death would come on his ashen horse, taking all those within, all those who breath and utter any kind of word. Death on his ashen horse would ride over Eddoren and silence all within, ending their pain for all eternity and bringing peace and bliss to the realm. Death was coming.

Prime Minister,

We are sorry to say but right now we current do not have a Chief Justice for that court, thus a trial may not occur in that court. We also notice a conflict of interest between the IJS and your nation. Furthermore, a trial like this more belongs in the Diplomatic court due to the situation involving such a bill being the center of a current conflict. A Diplomatic Court case is the precursor to a Civil Court case in instances such as these.

We shall allow you to resubmit your trial application so that you may apply for the correct court.

Thank you for your time,

Administration of the IJS.

If you have any questions on the matter feel free to contact me.

While we don't have a Chief Justice right now, let that be the reason this trial get Wait Listed until we do have one.

In terms of this Case... This is a Civil Court not a Diplomatic Court issue. They were right to submit it to the Civil Court for the following reason: This is a Reparations Case which is as follows.Thus the Civil Court would have to deal with this case and not the Diplomatic Court as it has already proceeded to that point.

Civil Court
This court shall preside over cases involving:

--Reparations for Damages
-Reparations for Damages shall be defined as the payment of money, property, or work in order to pay for damages caused by the accused nation or entity. In regards to work as payment, the work must be done for a third party at the standard wage for such work with money subtracted from the payment to account for food and living costs.

I deferred it to the Diplomatic court until we have a chief justice. It is stated that the Diplomatic court is the precursor to the Civil court. If they resubmit their application, I have already contacted the Arbiter, so if they resubmit, it will be accepted. If we get a Chief Justice for the Civil Court, we could easily defer it back to them.
This court is only for case that occur to prevent actions that would later warrant a trial in one of the other courts. This court may also be used as a go between in negotiations, or as a meeting to settle disputes before the situation is severe enough to be a Civil Court Trial. A Diplomatic Court Trial may be held as a hearing before a Civil Court Trial. This court is the only court that may not enforce its rulings.

Patricia Elliot would also like to put her name forth for Chief Justice.

Growing up in the former ghettos of Alania, Elemental North, Patricia Elliot is a true Acerian success story. Working 3 jobs to support both herself and her 2 sisters, through one of the hardest economic times Elemental North ever faced, she knows the value of hard work, and objectivity. Graduating as her class Valedictorian, she went on to Viran University, the top school in the nation at the time. Becoming the editor of the Viran Law Review, Justice Elliot, graduated Suma Cum Lade 2 years earlier than expected from Viran. A Doctorate in Global Law in one hand, and a large amount of determination in the other, she went out in search of employment. Alas, through skill and cunning, Ms. Elliot was able to nab a clerking spot for the Chief Justice of the Acerian Supreme Court, Edward Munoz. A staunch advocate against violent and repeat offenders, Chief Justice Munoz left the preparation of every opinion he had, to his young Clerk, Ms. Elliot. After Munoz died, Elliot moved on to work as a Deputy District Attorney in the same slum she once came from. She quickly discovered that things had only gotten worse since she escaped the degradation there. Corruption, and organized crime ran wild throughout the city. Elliot quickly saw her calling, that of bringing the downtrodden from the darkness. Elliot is responsible for the longest string of upheld criminal convictions in the entire country of Elemental North, her total standing at 505 criminal convictions on all levels of crime, from crook to Godfather. Seeing her success, the people, not Elliot, campaigned for her to be the newest District Attorney. Through a write-in ballot initiative, Elliot won, and humbly assumed her office. She cleaned out the District Attorney's office, firing corrupt D.D.A's and pressuring the Police Commissioner to fix his Department for the good of the city. It worked. The same ghetto Justice Elliot once found herself in, is now a thriving, economically powerful metropolitan area, home to the most efficient D.A's office in the nation. Awarded the Acerian Medal of Valor, Ms. Elliot continued up her ladder, to become States Attorney, where she lead a veritable crusade against domestic violence offenders, and drugs. She founded 3 women's shelters to aid the victims of domestic abuse, to not only seek refuge, but also become educated, take care of possible children, and allow to become financially stable-all so that they may have the same chance Elliot had worked so hard for, a little easier. She also halved the drug smuggling rate in Elemental North-today, due to her efforts, it's almost at 0 percent. Elliot also served as Governor of the state of Lusia, for over 9 years. Turning the state into a power house, and one of the safest states in that nation. She later served as head legal council to the Rickar Group, an international lobby group looking to promote and aid legislation that improves prison conditions and looks to educate and rehabilitate, instead of just store. Currently serving as a Justice of the I.J.S, she humbly and honorably seeks your vote as Chief Justice of the Criminal Courts. Together we can stop crime, and stop the intimidation/hopeless factor by showing, even the little girl from the ghetto can get out-if she's educated, and determined...

Granted. So long as this case gets Deferred to the Civil Court for a Proper Hearing assuming that the Plaintiff presses for such then we shall lodge no formal complaint as this matter is rather serious and they do have a good point. We will watch this closely to see if the IJS really works. Drogomeria I appreciate your handling of this matter considering your nation is unfortunately involved in the case. Do you have an idea of when the elections will take place, considering there are candidates for both Chief Justice position. (We know that there are only one candidates for each, but knowing when the election will actually be held will help for sure.)

In Response to Elemental North's Announcement of their running for Chief Justice, we yield our candidacy and ENDORSE the Right Honorable Justice Elliot for the Position of Chief Justice of the Criminal Court.

Ok, It is within their right to request a civil court case after a diplomatic court case.

As per the election, all that is needed is a candidate for the Secretary for the Courts, and we can proceed with an election.

Your withdraw from the election has been noted.

Holy shit!, you are overly qualified. However, there is an issue that your candidate and your Justice are different. What would occur. It has been the intention to always have any member have one position. The reason is so that a naion can not be both the one presiding over a case and one of those whom decides the verdict of the case.

Alas, through skill and cunning, Ms. Elliot was able to nab a clerking spot for the Chief Justice of the Acerian Supreme Court, Edward Munoz. A staunch advocate against violent and repeat offenders, Chief Justice Munoz left the preparation of every opinion he had, to his young Clerk, Ms. Elliot. After Munoz died, Elliot moved on to work as a Deputy District Attorney in the same slum she once came from. She quickly discovered that things had only gotten worse since she escaped the degradation there. Corruption, and organized crime ran wild throughout the city. Elliot quickly saw her calling, that of bringing the downtrodden from the darkness. Elliot is responsible for the longest string of upheld criminal convictions in the entire country of Elemental North, her total standing at 505 criminal convictions on all levels of crime, from crook to Godfather. Seeing her success, the people, not Elliot, campaigned for her to be the newest District Attorney. Through a write-in ballot initiative, Elliot won, and humbly assumed her office. She cleaned out the District Attorney's office, firing corrupt D.D.A's and pressuring the Police Commissioner to fix his Department for the good of the city. It worked. The same ghetto Justice Elliot once found herself in, is now a thriving, economically powerful metropolitan area, home to the most efficient D.A's office in the nation. Awarded the Acerian Medal of Valor, Ms. Elliot continued up her ladder, to become States Attorney, where she lead a veritable crusade against domestic violence offenders, and drugs. She founded 3 women's shelters to aid the victims of domestic abuse, to not only seek refuge, but also become educated, take care of possible children, and allow to become financially stable-all so that they may have the same chance Elliot had worked so hard for, a little easier. She also halved the drug smuggling rate in Elemental North-today, due to her efforts, it's almost at 0 percent. Elliot also served as Governor of the state of Lusia, for over 9 years. Turning the state into a power house, and one of the safest states in that nation. She later served as head legal council to the Rickar Group, an international lobby group looking to promote and aid legislation that improves prison conditions and looks to educate and rehabilitate, instead of just store. Currently serving as a Justice of the I.J.S, she humbly and honorably seeks your vote as Chief Justice of the Criminal Courts. Together we can stop crime, and stop the intimidation/hopeless factor by showing, even the little girl from the ghetto can get out-if she's educated, and determined...
Holy shit!, you are overly qualified. However, there is an issue that your candidate and your Justice are different. What would occur. It has been the intention to always have any member have one position. The reason is so that a naion can not be both the one presiding over a case and one of those whom decides the verdict of the case.


Many thanks. I look forward to this election, and to the future prosperity of this organization. :) Also, wouldn't you just move the justice from being a part of the voting court to the Chief Justice spot?

As per the election, all that is needed is a candidate for the Secretary for the Courts, and we can proceed with an election.

Your withdraw from the election has been noted.

Nevermind, I read Alania, as the name. My mistake. Elliot's candidacy is accepted. My apologies for the confusion.

Now, all we need is a candidate for the Secretary of the Courts, and then we may have the voting part of the election.

Your Excellencies,

The diplomatic court "is only for case[s] that occur to prevent actions that would later warrant a trial in one of the other courts". It is therefore unsuitable since the action has already indisputably occurred and there is clearly a question regarding reparations for damages which is indisputably a matter for the civil court to settle.

Until there is a Chief Justice for that court, we can not have a case in it, thus it was defaulted to the Diplomacy Court which is currently functioning and able to have trials. The Diplomacy Court is able to hold trials as precursors to trials in the Diplomacy Court, which works in situations such as these. Did you even bother reading the posts that make up the OP?
Diplomatic Court
This court is only for case that occur to prevent actions that would later warrant a trial in one of the other courts. This court may also be used as a go between in negotiations, or as a meeting to settle disputes before the situation is severe enough to be a Civil Court Trial. A Diplomatic Court Trial may be held as a hearing before a Civil Court Trial. This court is the only court that may not enforce its rulings.

Your Excellencies,

There is no need for a precursor trial before a trial, nor a hearing to delay procedures while you get ready. If you cannot yet hold a court on the grounds that we request, how long will you need to prepare? Should we find another more capable court?

Yours very sincerely,
Lord Richard Terefort,

To the Prime Minister, I ask that you direct your attention to the roster page and see that we have yet to elect our Chief Justices. The Diplomatic Court can hear your case sooner than later, where as the Civil Court needs more time so they can elect their Chief Justice so the case can begin in earnest. If you are not satisfied with the time for taking elections then that is rather unfortunate, but rushing the elections won't help either. Please be patient while this court holds the elections. If you are unsatisfied with the Diplomatic Court's ability to hear your case and defer judgement to the Civil Court when the Chief Justice is elected then it is clear that you are pursuing a rather unfortunate course. We have offered to hear your case once the Chief Justice is elected, and in the meantime offered to have the case heard by an Arbiter of the Diplomatic Court. That is all we can offer you in the present state of the court. Thank you for your persistence and to your desire to have a fair and just trial. We look forward to watching this case.

Sir, you must be aware that your offending the Court by making this contrite remarks, and we on the Bench do not appreciate this. You must understand that our democratic processes take time, and as such we will contact you when a writ of certiorari will be issued for your case. Thank you, and good day.
