A Renatus Court

[JoakimVonAnka 63]

Where is rip what is he doing? This is slightly worrying that he wants to murder?

((But that means that the guards have to step up their roleplaying. More responsibility means that more can go wrong, but go ahead.))

[[ True, but if guards feel they can rest on their laurels even if they are a bad RP'er, they're not going to improve. Whilst more can go wrong, if more happens then I believe the overall experience will be better as a whole ]]

*Lona sends away a bird with a note with the names on. The bird drops the note outside the prison inside the military ward.*

"As I said, there was around three guards involved in all this. The one who arrested me and later on harassed me, Similan is a member of the Imperial guards. I believe he is the one to put the most blame on... The other one who was there at the arrest was Cadet Oscar. I really can't put much blame on him due to his rank, but he still harassed me aswell."

"What surprised me the most was that Axl didn't see anything weird in the arrest. I spoke with him a few times under the arrest and he did apologize for everything, but he couldn't find any good reasons neither for me to be arrested. I wasn't allowed to have any visitors, even though I had done nothing wrong. I do believe Axl should be somewhat lesser punished than the Similan which haven't apologized at all."

"Haelun'or will be my home until I feel safe coming back to Renatus.

-Lona"

I will speak with Cadet Oscar and give him fair punishment, as for Similan he is out of my jurisdiction. I am assuming the general will speak to him.

(( it'll limit people join the army and being a guard for the sake of it. If we make rp harder it tends to be more realastic?))

((We almost have no one in the military. I belive 10 members total.))

*Scowls in dissapointment after seeing the massive string of letters and posts one as well*

Well, I obviously wasn't a part of this silly arrest but it strikes me as a stupid reason and truely makes me dissapointed in my collegues. I may not have a high rank but I can tell what is right and what is wrong. I take this as a personal offence and I'll do my best to watch over new cadets and even my officers to help prevent things like this from happening again. I hope you can forgive Renatus and your seperation is brief and beneficial.

Best of wishes,

Lance Shawl, Probatio of the Renatus Army

*A new note is pinned to the notice board* ((apologies for the lack of font, I'm on my phone :P ))

Having considered the needs and wants of the citizens, a courthouse is now under construction. It will in fact be the first building within the government district and is due to be completed soon, assuming we do not run short of resources.

Myself and two others are currently working on devising a system for judges to work by, and soon there will be a need for judges I would think, though no promises. Inside the courthouse there is to be a hallway and two courtrooms. The smaller of the two for minor cases and the larger for major cases. As soon as the system is fully in place you shall be made aware of it.

All prisoners and criminals will be entitled to a trial at their request, assuming a judge can be found although they will have to remain in the prison until a trial is arranged. Any guards not adhering to the law system will be punished according to the severity of their action(s).

I would like to apologise to Lona on behalf of the Council and the Military for any mistreatment which she suffered, it was wrong to treat a diplomat - even a citizen - in such a manner. I would be happy to talk to you further on the matter if required, otherwise I hope you can accept a humble apology.

Should anyone have any suggestions or questions on the new law system, please do let myself or another guard or Minister know. We are here for the benefit of the people.

Please do note that the new system is not yet in place, so ease be patient.

Kind regards,

~Alvarius Kashi; Minister of Economics

Finally, it is something that we are in need of. I want to see people punished for their crimes, however those accusations must be correct and the criminals punished accordingly.

I believe I am already a judge, though I am not sure. I was appointed by Boiendl.

*Kashi glances at the notice board the next day and sees the note underneath it. He scribbles hastily onto that same note*

Let me know your name and I'm sure you will be re-appointed as a judge once the courthouse is finished.

[Acornlad 206]

I say would should elect judges rather than appoint them, however those who already are judges should keep their position.

[[Also, we could have people request a hearing on he forums if they want to settle a dispute]]

[Althos Silverblade 42]

[[ sure if there are no judges then a hearing on the forums can be arranged. You will probably judge those hearings as you're the only FM, so you'll have to prevent those flame wars :P ]]

"Ah yes, Hawk, of course.

I am sure that you will be re-appointed as a judge as soon as the courthouse is built."

[[That too. I was suggesting that people schedule hearings on the forums (if a judge isn't online) in a specified topic and then has it resolved when the judges can get online.]]

[Althos Silverblade 42]

[[ ooh yeah I see what you mean. Sure that would work well, we can Crete a topic for hearings at a later date ]]

(In response to the court idea, I have done this before and by god the court cases are some of the most fun rp one can have. Bit boring sometimes, but very interesting. Basically, who ever becomes a judge needs to learn the proper terms, phrases etc.*

*reads the note and shrugs happily*

Hmm..... well then, if they need someone with experience I'm sure I wouldn't mind coming back. This month has been long and a bore anyways.
