Proposal: Rights of the Natural Person Act 1605

Post by Tokaray al-Osman »

Senators,

It is time to welcome the return of an old friend:
Act of the Senate
on
THE RIGHTS OF THE NATURAL PERSON
(Coordination II)
1605



Section 1: The Natural Person

§1.1. A person or persons is, when cited in the Law, without exception a Human Being (Homo Sapiens) of independent agency whose actual existence has been attested and confirmed by the Court of the Prince upon the occasion of the grant of nationality rights (including specifically naturalisation). Such a person is a Natural Person entitled to full civic and human rights under law.
§1.1.1. For the purpose of this Act Elfinshi shall be considered Homo Sapiens.

§1.2. A Natural Person is possessed of the qualities of Humanity and the dignity inherent in the Human Condition.

§1.3. Where attestation has not been made or is proven to be false upon investigation by the Court of the Prince, the State Security Apparatus or other lawful agents of the state as may be appointed (the Authorities), the party that has either declined to attest, falsely sworn or else denied their Humanity shall have repudiated their right to be considered a Natural Person under Law.

§1.4. Only an attested Natural Person may hold public office in the State of Elwynn.

§1.5. Nothing in this Act nor in law shall prevent or constrain the Natural Person from possessing and maintaining auxiliary personalities, personae, servitors or avatars save that these shall be notified to the Authorities and their particulars held in a register maintained by the Court of the Prince.
§1.5.1. Auxiliary personalities shall be deemed appendages to the Natural Person.
§1.5.2. Auxiliary personalities depicting entities other than a Person shall not attract penalties save that they may not be used to hold public office in the stead of the Natural Person who they are the appendage of.

Section 2: Unnatural Persons

§2.1. An Unnatural Person is an entity that has entered into correspondence with the State of Elwynn and, having applied for naturalisation, failed to provide an attestation to the satisfaction of the Authorities.

§2.2. The existence of an Unnatural Person is aberrant and must be rectified by the Authorities through the application of reason and the Rule of Law.

§2.3. To deny ones own Humanity is an offence. It shall carry the penalty of exclusion from the physical space, forums and internet presence of the State of Elwynn for a period of one month. Repeat offences shall in the forfeiture of Elwynnese Nationality.

Section 3: Categorisation as an Entity Other than the Person (Natural or Unnatural)

§3.1. On application to the Court of Star Chamber the Authorities may petition for the categorisation of the entity in a form other than the Person. These alternatives include:
§3.1.1. Animal;
§3.1.2. Corporate;
§3.1.3. Alien.

§3.2. An entity defined as Animal is confirmed in the right to life and the reasonable expectation of freedom from cruel usage, except where the needs of a Natural Person for survival or nourishment permits killing or cruel treatment, provided that the cruelty is minimised.

§3.3. A Corporate entity is formed by a business corporation or other appropriate organisation – its rights and responsibilities shall be defined separately under law. A Corporate entity is not entitled to civic rights accorded to a Natural Person.

§3.4. An Alien is an entity of non-Human and or extraterrestrial origin. Although sentient it is not possessed of the Human Condition and cannot be considered a Natural Person under law. It is an offence to treat an Alien as a Natural Person which shall carry the penalty of a Five Hundred Florin fine to the offending party.
§3.4.1. Aliens are fundamentally injurious to the health and well being of Natural Persons. Any Alien encountered entering the territory of the State of Elwynn is forfeit to the Court of the Prince and is to be Quarantined by the Authorities.

Section 4: Habeas Corpus
§4.1. The Writ Habeas corpus ad subiciendum when served by a competent authority must be observed and adhered to by all parties in receipt of it when within the boundaries of the Elwynnese Union.

§4.2. That whensoever any person or persons shall bring any habeas corpus directed unto any sheriff or sheriffs, gaoler, cudgeller or other person whatsoever, for any person in his or their custody, and the said writ shall be served upon the said officer, or left at the gaol or prison with any of the under-officers, under-keepers or deputy of the said officers or keepers, that the said officer or officers, his or their under-officers, under-keepers or deputies, shall within three days after the service thereof as aforesaid (unless the commitment aforesaid were for treason or felony, plainly and specially expressed in the warrant of commitment) upon payment or tender of the charges of bringing the said prisoner, to be ascertained by the judge or court that awarded the same, and endorsed upon the said writ and upon security given by his own bond to pay the charges of carrying back the prisoner, if he shall be remanded by the court or judge to which he shall be brought according to the true intent of this present act, and that he will not make any escape by the way, make return of such writ;

§4.2.1 and bring or cause to be brought the body of the party so committed or restrained, unto or before the Count for the time being, or the judges of the said court from which the said writ shall issue, or unto and before such other person or persons before whom the said writ is made returnable, according to the command thereof;

§4.2.2. and shall then likewise certify the true causes of his detainer or imprisonment.

Section 5: Repeals

5.1. Articles 1 to 3 of 'Decree LX - Minority Rights and Corporal Punishment' are repealed.

My Senators!

I applaud this bill! It is a bill in the spirit of Tarjei Einhornsson, may he rest in peace, and in the spirit of Aurangzeb Khan Osmani, the greatest non-prince statesmen Elwynn ever has had the pleasure to honour. May we pass this!

I am confused about some minor aspects of the bill. I can't for the life of me make certain how to categorize the southern infidels known as Liches in common parlance. Would they be categorized as "aliens"? Or perhaps as "human" given the human DNA in the bodies?

I yield!

Liches are the rotting husks of men, dead even to the cellular level, compelled to persist in an animate state by an external force that can only be described as wholly alien to our collective experience.
