''[[220laws:| <<< Deoch ~215 Mileth Law ]]'' \\ ===== Mileth Charter: Rights & Legislation ===== We, the Demagoguery of Mileth, representing the citizenry of Mileth, do ordain and establish this Charter to establish good governance, justice and peace. I. Right of Liberty Citizens and guests of Mileth have the fundamental Right of Liberty. Liberty consists of doing anything which does not harm others or society: thus, the exercise of liberty by citizen or guest has only borders which assure others the realization of Liberty. These borders can be determined only by law. II. Political Rights i. It is the right of all Mileth citizens to support any legal office holder of Mileth or to support an Aisling's legal candidacy for office. ii. It is the right of all lawful Mileth office holders to use their political power in order to support, endow, attack and widdle another official of Mileth, and this without having to provide a reason. The rights of attack and widdle are lifted when it concerns officials who are already opposed in a judiciary case. The case must settled before the right to attack and widdle is restored. Political actions are not harassment and may never be defined by law as such. III. Legislative Authority All legislative power resides with the Demagoguery of Mileth. The Demagoguery of Mileth consists of all Demagogues and Burgesses lawfully holding office. A. Any member of the Demagoguery may create a legislative proposal. For a proposal to be enacted into law it must be voted on by the Demagoguery over a minimum period of two moons. Proposals require the support of at least 51% of those Demagoguery members who voted (excluding abstentions) to pass and become law. B. "Right of Burgess": A Burgess may enact a legislative proposal after one moon has passed since the proposal was opened for voting if all legislative officials in office during this time have voted "aye." If there are any "no" or "abstain" votes, or lack of an official's vote, this ability is void and the proposal must remain open for the full double moon. C. Specific procedures for legislative proposals may be further defined by law. D. Demagogues and Burgesses may also propose resolutions. Resolutions have the same requirements for passage as legislative proposals. i. Resolutions do not carry the force of law but are used to express the view of the Demagoguery majority on various matters: for example a resolution proclaiming a day of public thanksgiving or celebration, congratulating a citizen, granting of honorary titles or statements regarding foreign affairs. ii. Passed resolutions must be posted on both the Political Discourse and Community boards. Resolutions must also contain the signatures of those who supported them. iii. The Demagoguery may also invite judiciary officers to participate and thus issue joint resolutions.
