My only question would be if 72 hours is, or will be seen as, enough time for the complainant to gather the evidence he will need to present to this court? I personally believe its sufficient time but I wonder if those assembly members who support Bels will cry foul. Any thoughts?

72 hours is a standard time with the court. All he needs to do is provide quotes from the accused that demonstrate facts that are both defamatory and allegedly false, which I believe he already has.

We do have a fairly ambiguous case regarding Cormac though. It's been previously established the forum is court jurisdiction, while as I said Article 4.2 only describes citizens in regard to criminal cases. Do we want to assume the same procedures for non-citizens, or declare his charges invalid? We're setting precedent either way and I'm starting to lean towards allowing it.
