THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT-ELECT

Seattle, Washington

President-elect Polnut has nominated former Senator and Vice President Kalwejt to be the next Attorney General of Atlasia.

The President-elect has said "this role is very important, and I look forward to seeing what Kal does with the role, he has deep experience in Atlasia which should bring positive changes to the Justice Department. This department needs to be vigilant and active again."

In relation to the Cabinet in general "I have nominated people who I feel have qualities the roles need. This will not be a case of lots of personal agendas working under one umbrella, the Polnut Cabinet will be about working together to deliver the Administration's goals".

The President-elect has no intention of changing the arrangements for the Moderator General position.



Rules on Confirmation Hearings

Senators have 72 hours to question the nominee.

Kalwejt, what changes do you hope to make to the Justice Department following Tmthforu's three Attorneys General?

Will you advise the Senate on adjusting Atlasia's criminal law?

And I hope that the nominee's silence in the first 24 hours does not indicate answers of nothing, nothing and nothing to all questions posed so far. Tongue I ask the nominee remember that there is only 48 hours left of regular question time remaining. Tongue

I'm very, very sorry for my involuntary absence. I was totally offline for last couple of days after my internet died. Now I'm back Smiley

Napoleon,

I view my role mostly as a "Bureaucrat General", which means keeping The Statute in order. During my first tenure as AG, I was able to clean up Statute page on wiki and set a new standards for updating it. And I'm simply intending to maintain this course.
 
bgwah,

Department of Justice under my leadership will bring this case to the court, but, due to my inexperience as a lawyer, I'll rather appoint a special prosecutor to handle the case, rather than try myself. Presently, I'm looking for such person.

The Attorney General does not interpret the law. The Supreme Court does.

If I believe there's some violation of our law, I'll simply take it to the Court and await the Court's verdict.

The Attorney General must interpret the law in order to determine if he believes it has been violated, and to build a coherent case.

And you want me to make an interpretation of every single law right now? Tongue

I do  think the legal argument and interpretation aspect of the office is important, but I do think Kal will do his best and be committed to being active in the office and do a good job with the wiki.

Aye.
