[PASSED] Appointment of Belschaft to the High Court |
Thank you Bels, I was under the impression that was your meaning but needed to clear it up, an d furthermore Kris, no that was not my underlying question. I trust that our cabinet would be competent enough to select a AJ that would not support a future coup.
Greetings, I am The Serres Republic.

While we're at it, if you would also be susceptible to letting political opinions or goals affect your work as a Justice.I can't predict the future, but I can't imagine myself supporting anything legally questionable - but any situation where I did would be, as in the past, outside of the norm and thus unpredictable by it's very nature. I think I've always maintained an appropriate attitude when wearing my "Justice" hat in the past, including ruling against my own views/interests. As for the issue of political goals/opinions; that's why we have a CoI and recussal process. Minister of Media, Subversion and Sandwich Making

As a quick question for Cabinet/CJ: what were the criteria you had when looking at the potential nominees? And perhaps a quick note on which of those this nominee meant and you think he was lacking in might also be appropriate if you are willing to provide it.

For me, the actual answer wasn't as important as the explanation of the thought process used to reach that answer. My thinking here is: We want justices that can think logically, drawing upon the laws, and reach a conclusion without being subjected to bias. If they made something that I would consider a benign mistake in that process, I'm not too worried as we have the sign-off plus appeal methods to deal with that if it happens.
Obviously I can only speak for myself.
I designed the Survey, loosely based on the one I myself answered last year, so the topics it addresses are already the ones I consider most important: I was looking for nominees who take a careful approach with cases and regarding their own role in the Court. That meant:
I did have concerns with his involvement in Operation Brave Little Toaster and the 2016 Cabinet Coup, as well as his general availability. I recommended to the Cabinet further inquiring on that, and was the one who asked him for an explanation on his role in the Cabinet Coup and his availability. I felt his answers were adequate, and let the Cabinet know as much. Inviato dal mio iPhone utilizzando Tapatalk Former Delegate of the South Pacific

Do you like legal interpretation and judicial business? If so, why? If not, why not, and would you still be an adequate Justice?
