Imperial Jurisdiction Act

Post by Gerk »

Imperial Jurisdiction Act

In order to avoid violating the Double Jeopardy clause in the Gralan Bill of Rights, for any infractions which violate both Provincial and Imperial Law, the Imperial Courts shall have original jurisdiction over the infraction. This original jurisdiction may be forfeited to the Provincial Courts at the discretion of the Chief Justice. A case of which the original jurisdiction was forfeited to the Provincial Courts may still be appealed to the Imperial Courts.
