$10 says Yankee uses his mod powers to yeet the Southerners by the end of the crisis

Yankee wouldn't do that, whatever else I don't believe he would abuse his mod powers.

So what's up with this OSR case?

It's MHO that cert should've never been granted here.  Unless the plaintiff somehow is contending that the Senate does not have the power to "discipline...its members", it doesn't seem like he has a legal leg to stand on. 

Article III Section 1 Clause 6 of the Atlasian Constitution makes it very clear that the Senate does, in fact, have this power.
 
Quote
The Senate may adopt rules concerning the discipline and expulsion of its members; but no Senator shall be expelled but with the concurrence of two-thirds of the members of the Senate.

Now you're telling me that the Court might decide in favor of OSR? I get the whole "you need to respond" thing, but geez...are they willing to do away with an important legislative check that the Senate has?

SMH!

The plaintiff is not arguing that the Senate does not have the power to discipline members. Please re-read our brief.
