RENDER UNTO CAESAR THAT WHICH IS CAESAR’S The city of Karosgrad on fire, c. 365 ES Some of you may know me, yet others may not, so I will gladly introduce myself to you. I bear the name Matthieu, and you ought to respect it. I am not a violent man but rather a simple businessman, one that does not enjoy losing. After all, who does? For those of you who haven’t heard of me, I am rather new to Karosgrad. Most of my business is in the cities of Providence and the underealms of Urguan, places where I’ve done quite well for myself. Of course, no one there knows me either. You see, I tend to do my business more covertly than other businessmen. The fewer competitors that are aware of me, the less competition I must deal with. But with Karosgrad, it seems that my previous ways of doing business will not do. Karosgrad demands splendor, and I mean to meet this demand with all I have. You have no doubt heard of the burning of the Wittenbach Warenhaus this Saint’s day. A terrible shame, to be sure. I had hoped to work closely with Mister Wittenbach, but it seems he thought he knew better than me. A little fire goes a long way in teaching a man a lesson, as does a knife between the ribs. Let this be a lesson, not just for Wittenbach, but all of Karosgrad. My name is Matthieu, and I will not be so easily subdued. I have been told that my name means “gift from God”, and this I surely am. With all that I have, and all that I can do, what else could I be but a product of the Seven Skies? I hope those of you who remain will be more willing to do business with me. I have been especially interested in your Northern Geographical Society, and mean to do business with it as I meant to do business with Wittenbach. I hope you will be wiser than he was, for your sake. Signed, MATTHIEU

AULIC COURT OF THE KINGDOM OF HANSETI-RUSKA ve Krawn z. Helvets 22nd of Gronna & Droba | 355 E.S. Jovenaars Mr. Lukas Rakoczy (Presiding) Sir Sigmar Joren Baruch (Assistant) Mrs. Erika Vanir (Assistant) Prosecution Duke Matyas Baruch Defense Richard Victor Helvets (Defendant) Eleanora Mannox (Legal counsel) THE FOLLOWING CHARGES WERE BROUGHT AGAINST THE DEFENDANT; 402.01: An individual who intentionally kills another shall be guilty of the severe offence of murder; 427.01: If an individual or group is convicted of attempting to commit a crime, they shall be issued a punishment equal to the punishment deserving of the actual crime committed. THE FOLLOWING IS THE VERDICT BROUGHT BY THE JOVENAARS; Jovenaar Rakoczy, joined by Baruch and Vanir; The Defendant, Count Richard Victor Helvets, pleaded guilty to the charge of attempted murder, to which the punishment is death by beheading. THE FOLLOWING IS THE RATIONALE FOR THE DECISION FROM THE PRESIDING JOVENAAR; On the charge of Attempted Murder and the subsequent Death Sentence; Jovenaar Rakoczy delivered the opinion of the court The defendant, Count Richard Victor Helvets, used the chaos of the Karosgrad Riots in order to viciously attack his own daughter with the intent of murdering her. The act was done in public in the presence of dozens of witnesses. Despite a medical official labelling him not fully conscious and in the early stages of mind rot, it was the opinion of the Court that the risk to the public of keeping him alive was too great. Therefore, given his guilty plea, this court finds it just to execute him for his crime. It is so ordered.

AULIC COURT OF THE KINGDOM OF HANSETI-RUSKA REVIEW ON THE LEGISLATIVE PROCESS OF REPEATING PROPOSALS 5th of Wzuvar & Byvca, 355 E.S. Jovenaars Sir Sigmar J. Baruch Ms. Reza B. Gynsburg Mr. Otto Wittenbach Mr. Lukas Rakoczy MAJORITY: Rakoczy, joined by Gynsburg CONCURRENCE: Wittenbach DISSENT: Baruch Exposition A multitude of acts are rejected at the behest of the Duma vote, as has been seen in recent years. The Josefian reforms have also brought a period of great change to the procedure of the Duma. However, as the Duma cannot legislate on itself (see Aulic Court Review: Relationship Between the Royal Duma and the Aulic Government), this request for review must be issued. As a sitting member of the Duma, and peer of the realm, the Duke of Valwyck sees fit to defer to the Aulic Court for a legal opinion on the following: The Haurul Caezk states that a bill of the Royal Duma must be passed by majority vote and may become law with the confirmation of the Koeng following its majority vote, implicating that it is failed when said bill does not reach these requisites: 212.01: Members of the Duma may submit bills to the Royal Duma that must be passed by majority vote; 212.042: Once passed with a majority vote, a legislative bill shall require assent from the Crown to become binding law; The question that should be raised is whether or not a bill that has failed to reach these requisites after being introduced in the Duma should have the ability to be reintroduced, unaltered, in the Duma sessions following its failure, including the cohort contrary to the one it was first presented in. See the full amicus brief from Lord Matyas Baruch: https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/197497-letter-to-the-aulic-court-353-es/ Jovenaar Lukas Rakoczy delivered the opinion of the court; The dispute focuses primarily on the question of whether legislation that has failed once may be re-introduced without modification during a meeting of another cohort. Even though noble cohorts have since been removed from the structure of the Royal Duma at the time of publication, the court still finds it pertinent to offer a judgement on this matter. It is the belief of the Aulic Court that the Royal Duma may not re-introduce failed legislation without major modification during the same four-year session. Any legislation that passes the Duma does so with the consent of the people, with legislators voting on behalf of and as the representatives of the people and the peers. Legislation that fails to pass, therefore, has clearly failed to attain the consent and support of the people, and to re-introduce such legislation would be to subvert the will of the people. Jovenaar Sigmar J. Baruch in dissent; On the dispute of re-introducing legislation without modification after failure to pass, this Jovenaar finds that through decades of set precedent and no objections to the matter found within the Haurul Caezk, it would be unprecedented and detrimental to the ability of the Royal Duma to restrict members of the body from introducing bills to the floor. Furthermore, it is not the place of the Aulic Courts to legislate on the abilities of members of the Royal Duma which directly affects their service within the Duma, it is only the Aulic Courts place to protect precedent, and interpret the Law. It is the ability of Duma members to introduce legislation in hopes of it becoming written law, therefore we should not restrict the capacity in which members can do this and take part in the writing and introducing of legislation. IT IS SO ORDERED.

"I vote aye." Father Thomas bowed his head to the Pontiff and took a seat.

"An interesting question. I look forward to debating this with my fellow Jovenaar's," commented Lukas Rakoczy!

"A true Haeseni patriot. I am proud to serve alongside Tarathiel in the Duma. May her family prosper and serve Haense faithfully," commented Lukas Rakoczy upon seeing the poster.

I wish for a face reveal from james2k please

The former President of Oren (vote Rakoczy 1786) woke up to a paper taped to his face and the sound of nails being hammered into his front door. He smiled, knowing what this meant. “Finally.”

Lukas Rakoczy, soldier, member of the House of Commons, and now hostage negotiator, takes a well deserved rest after a long day of work.
