This law expands upon the protocols for revising, adding or removing the 
laws of Mileth. These protocols are in addition to those defined in the 
Mileth Charter.

I. Legislative Revision Procedures

A. When a proposal is ready to be opened for voting, it must be placed on 
the Demagoguery Board in the exact format and text in which it is to appear 
on the Mileth Law board. Spelling corrections that do not alter any meaning 
are permitted with the approval of another legislative official.

B. A post declaring the proposal open for voting must accompany the 
proposal. This post must go on the Demagoguery Board and include the 
following information:

1. Changes, if any, to an existing law.

2. Laws that it will replace (revision) or that will be removed.

3. Date at which the voting opens/closes and voting requirements.

D. Votes must be posted on the Demagoguery Board while the proposal is open 
and before it is closed to be considered valid.

E. There are three ways a Demagogue or Burgess may vote:

1. Aye: They support the proposal.

2. Nay: They do not support the proposal. A valid, relevant explanation must 
be provided.

3. Abstain: They choose to remain neutral in the proposal. Abstain votes do 
not calculate into the total votes cast.

F. All proposals require a 3/4ths majority vote to pass.

G. Proposals are open for voting for two moons.

H. An official who proposes legislation is not required to vote because it 
is assumed that they support their proposal. The official who proposes a 
proposal may withdraw the proposal before voting is closed.

I. Once the defined voting period has ended, the proposal must be declared 
"closed for voting" on the Demagoguery Board. This post must declare whether 
the proposal passes or fails, while following the regulations above.

II. Exceptions

A. If a legislative official is unable to post on the Demagoguery Board, 
they can propose legislation or vote by proxy (another official, a sibling 
who has board posting rights, a Knight, etc) or post on the political 
discourse board.

B. Should the original legislator who proposed legislation no longer be in 
office at the time the voting period ends, any legislative official may 
close the proposal.

C. Right of Burgess

1. A Burgess may close any proposal after one moon has passed since the 
proposal was opened if all legislative officials in office during this time 
have voted "aye."

2. 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 its original 
voting procedures.

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 be 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 3/4ths 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.

IV. Restrictions on Multiple Family Members in Office
For the purposes of this Charter and Mileth Law, a family is defined as multiple aislings under the ultimate authority and control of a single paterfamilias or materfamilias. ((Multiple characters controlled by one real life Dark Ages player.))

Multiple members of the same family holding political office simultaneously is permitted, albeit with the following restrictions:

1. Only one family member is permitted to vote on a legislative proposal.

2. Review of a case by a superior officer of the same family is prohibited.

3. Legislative officers may carry out exiles ordered by a judicial officer of the same family; however the assisting officer must be of a different family.

4. No sgath summons may be ordered and executed entirely by officials of the same family. At least one participating official in the process must be of a different family.

5. Although represented by a Head of Household for ease of recordkeeping, members of a family are considered seperate entities when performing their official duties:

a. Powers from one family member cannot be transferred to or used by another member;
b. Liability for any actions made while in office applies only to the family member whom executed said actions.
V. Required Laws
Mileth at all times must maintain a law or laws which govern the use of political powers by office holders. Any legislative proposal for the removal of such a law or laws without replacement would be considered void.

VI. Prohibited Laws
No new laws may be enacted or existing laws revised which:

1. Contradict or conflict with other laws or this Charter.

2. Limit or restrict the lawful discharge of political powers while an aisling is in office legally.

3. Permit the exile of aislings for periods exceeding two deochs for a single criminal charge as per the Mundane Mandate. Exiles may only exceed two deochs if there are multiple charges of crimes for which the initial punishment is a two deoch exile.

4. Violate the Right of Liberty.

VII. Supremacy and Revision or Removal of the Mileth Charter
A. This Charter is the core of Mileth Law and supersedes all other laws.

B. This Charter requires unanimous support to revise or remove over a minimum voting period of four moons. The Right of Burgess is not permitted for use on revisions or removal of this Charter.
