The Supreme Court was surprisingly quick in dismissing Suburban's misunderstanding of what due process means.

It doesn't seem like off-hand comments by one legislator in Lincoln (not representing the entire legislature and Governor of Lincoln) should be considered appropriate evidence by the Court. Plus, I thought fhtagn hated Discord leaks? In any case, the Supreme Court is not the appropriate venue for people to score political points against one another.

There is the argument that the courts should not only consider the letter of the law but also the spirit of the law. And to understand the spirit of the law you must understand what the drafter of the law intended.

So, bumping this in light of FairBol's case, which I have to say is probably one of the most frivolous cases to come to the court. ASV, Wulfric, Peebs, and Encke, a total of four independent sources, all of vastly different partisan affiliations, all came to the same conclusion, I think FairBol's count is wrong and he made a mistake somewhere.

That doesn't matter. It's an elections case, and it must be heard. If Fairbol has an argument, he should be free to raise it before the court.

And the court likewise has every right to dismiss the case, especially if Fairbol fails to provide any evidence.

Wulfric managing to  up a vote of no confidence so badly it might render it null and void is thoroughly unsurprising from such a beacon of hopeless incompetence. Genuinely impressive that he might have managed to do this.

I get the feeling LT is just going to ignore this
It's a bold strategy.

Spectacular legislative prowess to pass an ultimately pretty meaningless ”reform” and somehow completely ignore the consequences of said bill! Hopefully the Supreme Court doesn’t take their usual leisurely pace with deliberations otherwise the next senate may never be seated! Given it’s taken the NPC case more than 2 months to select a jury, an interregnum till fresh elections may be on the cards.

Someone who's gunning for the S019 award for most incompetent federal prosecutor vs Someone who rigidly insists on irl legal procedure no matter how absurd/impossible it is to recreate in an online election game. What an incredible battle. Incredible as in not credible.
