Trial Process and Fundamental Penalty Structure
Witnesses, plaintiffs, and defendants, can always appear by
telepresence.
In any case involving potential incarceration, or a potential penalty
that, when combined with penalties already exacted or demanded in the
same calendar year, exceeds ten percent of the defendant's income, the
following triel process is followed.
Testimony is considered, and verdicts and penalties are decided and
delivered, by a singe judge. This judge is appointed by the legislature
of same unit of state.
A defendant must enter a plea. That plea must be either "agree" or
"disagree." A defendant who refuses to enter a plea is to be confined
to a secure mental hospital until he enters a plea.
No trial can last longer than one month.
An individual can not be made to pay more than the previous 3 month's
net income in covering the costs of litigational procedure.
