http://nomic.createaforum.com/proposals-and-voting/proposal-amend-rule-s3/?topicseen

The following was proposed:

To add:
S3.3.a
"Once a Chairman has been voted into power, he or she elects the next Chairman. This new Chairman must then be voted on by the players. If he or she is voted in, they start their term after the Chairman in power's term ends. If they are not voted in, they may still run on the ballot. Also, if this Chairman is not voted in, the Chairman position is put on a regular ballot with Vice-Chairman and Secretary."

It received one vote for and one vote against before the vote was "closed" as a tie. 

Then, two weeks after closure, the tiebreaking vote was cast.

For clarification's sake, as Chairman, I declare the final vote invalid and the proposal closed.  This action may be challenged by a judicial hearing.

so is anyone for these proposal?

REPORTED
1) A crime is reported to the Dictator of the subNomic that the crime was committed. Any evidence that they reporting player feels can be used is handed over.
2) Once a report is brought to the Dictator, the following questions are decided:
     a) Does the report actually allege a crime?
     b) Does the report allege imminent danger which would require the removal and placement of the victim?
     c) Does the scene need to be secured or visited immediately?
     d) Is there any physical evidence that should be collected?
     e) Who are the possible witnesses?
     f) Is there enough evidence to permit an investigation?
INVESTIGATION
3) An investigation is done by the Dictator. In an investigation, a Dictator may do any of the following:
     a) Interrogate other active players through Private Message.
     b) Investigate and read all Private Messages by all active players.
     c) Investigate all forums under their subNomic.
     d) Investigate all evidence brought in by the reporting player.
4) The Dictator then looks at all evidence and decides where to move from here. The Dictator may decide whether or not the player should be arrested (thye may not if there is not enough evidence) Also, the Dictator writes up a short report explaining the charge that he or she sees fit and how they came to that conclusion.
ARREST
5) If the Dictator decides the player should be arrested, the arrested player is read their Miranda Rights and is put on the inactive list.
     "You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to speak to an attorney, and to have an attorney present during any questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be provided for you at government expense."
WHO IS THE LAWYER?
The lawyer is any player that has declared themselves as a lawyer. If the player can not afford the lawyer, someone is appointed as a temporary lawyer. A temporary lawyer is paid 100 points (or other form of currency depending on the subNomic).
INITIAL APPEARANCE/PRELIMINARY HEARING
6) This is the first appearance in court of a player who has been arrested at which the charges are read and the court decides whether or not the accused may be provisionally released (and, if so, the amount of the bail that must be deposited in order to secure the accused person’s release). In subNomics in which this rule of law is observed, this first appearance is before a judge and will happen immediately after arrest. At this point, a Judge may decide one of two things: the player's case is dropped or dismissed, or charge as Bail or Detention.
WHO IS THE JUDGE?
The Judge is a player from another Nomic that has no part in the case (in other words, completely unbiased).
     6a) If a player is moved through bail, they do not pay yet. In fact a player is not even given an amount. At this point, the player is listed under a misdemeanor trial. Please read steps 7-9.
     6b) If a player is moved through detention, please read steps 10-12.
MISDEMEANORS
7) This is the less serious of the two outcomes. First off, a player may be put through two things: a guilty plea or trial.
     7a) A guilty plea is done by the accused to the Dictator. At this point, the case is moved directly to sentencing.
     7b) A trial is held in front of the same Judge and a Jury. (This could happen at the same time as the Preliminary Trial.) In this step they examine and assess the evidence (again) against a person accused of a crime. In a trial, the lawyer may interrogate in an open forum witnesses, the accused and the accusing under the Judge and Jury's watch. The Jury gives their verdict to the Judge via Private Message and the Judge finally gives his or her verdict.
WHO IS THE JURY?
The Jury is all active players in the subNomic.
SENTENCING
8 ) The verdict may decide one of four things (or a combination of many): Probation, Jail, Fine, or Acquittal.
     8a) Probation: The player is released back onto the active list but with a limit. Violation of this limit will turn the verdict directly back to sentencing and the Judge decides on one thing: how long the accused's sentence in jail will be.
     8b) Jail: The player is left on the inactive list and is not allowed to post or spend or gain points (or other monetary system) while in jail. They are allowed to send Private Messages. This could be for a period of time determined by the Judge.
     8c) Fine: The player is released back onto the active list but must pay a fine, the sum determined by the Judge. Not paying the fine within two weeks will turn the verdict directly back to sentencing and the Judge decides on one thing: how long the accused's sentence in jail will be.
     8d) Acquittal: The player is immediately labeled as not guilty. The player is released onto the Inactive list and no Karma point is taken away.
9) Once all sentences are fulfilled, the player is released back onto the active list with one Karma point taken away. This shows how many times a player has been sentenced.
FELONIES
10) This is more serious of the two outcomes. First off, a player may be put through two things: a guilty plea or trial.
     10a) A guilty plea is done by the accused to the Dictator. At this point, the case is moved directly to sentencing.
     10b) A trial is held in front of the same Judge and a Jury. (This could happen at the same time as the Preliminary Trial.) In this step they examine and assess the evidence (again) against a person accused of a crime. In a trial, the lawyer may interrogate in an open forum witnesses, the accused and the accusing under the Judge and Jury's watch. The Jury gives their verdict to the Judge via Private Message and the Judge finally gives his or her verdict.
SENTENCING
11) The verdict may decide one of five things (or a combination of many): Probation, Penitentiary, Capital Punishment, Fine, or Acquittal.
     11a) Probation: The player is released back onto the active list but with a limit. Violation of this limit will turn the verdict directly back to sentencing and the Judge decides on one thing: how long the accused's sentence in jail will be.
     11b) Penitentiary: The player is left on the inactive list and is not allowed to post or spend or gain points (or other monetary system) or anything else while in jail. They are not allowed to send Private Messages. This could be for a period of time determined by the Judge.
     11c) Fine: The player is released back onto the active list but must pay a fine, the sum determined by the Judge. Not paying the fine within two weeks will turn the verdict directly back to sentencing and the Judge decides on one thing: how long the accused's sentence in jail will be.
     11d) Acquittal: The player is immediately labeled as not guilty. The player is released onto the Inactive list and no Karma point is taken away.
     11e) Capital Punishment: A player is extracted from the subNomic and not allowed to come back-- ever. This is held for the worst of the worst of cases.
The accused may appeal the case to the Supreme Court if he feels the sentence is unfair. This will be explained in steps 13-20.
12) Once all sentences are fulfilled (with the exception of Capital Punishment), the player is released back onto the active list with two Karma points taken away. This shows how many times a player has been sentenced.
APPEALMENT
13) If a player appeals to the Supreme Court, a Jury of the Chairman, Vice-Chairman and Secretary is made. If one of the three are the accused, then another player is charged with the job of fulfilling the position. All evidence is brought forward to the Supreme Court and a debate on a possible verdict is posted as "Hearing: X" the X replaced with the name of the accused and a short description of the case.
FINAL VERDICT
14) After the debate has come to a compromise, the Supreme Court writes a review, posted under Hearings as "Verdict: X" the X replaced with the name of the accused and a short description of the case. The review must state, all evidence, the final verdict, the accused and the reasoning for the final verdict. The verdict can be one of two things:
     --An agreement with the lower court, keeping the original verdict.
     --A disagreement with the lower court, discarding the original verdict and leaving the accused not guilty.
15) This is the end of the Judicial System.



***Now, this can be shortened (mostly by taking out the Misdemeanor section but I feel that it is needed personally. But that's something to discuss.***

I have taken it out.
