Would this gives justices the power to theoretically ask for PMs?

I was going to ask a moderator so I could amend this to reflect site policies if necessary, but some things came up -- I'll explain the weirdness of the physical evidence situation tomorrow.

Okay,

Short answer: The Presiding Judge in a trial would be able to issue subpoenas at their discretion, or at the behest of counsel. So, yes and no. Subpoenas of PMs would be pretty tough to enforce, for obvious reasons, but I see no reason that private forwarding of messages could not be used to comply with site policy in lieu of public postings.

I am somewhat concerned that requiring the forwarding of PMs might be a TOS violation or at the very least something that the forum administration would be dubious about. I think we should consult with them on that aspect.

I’m a step ahead of you — contacted a mod about it a few days ago. They’re currently hashing it out in the cave, but even if it is a problem, we can just amend the bill to reflect that.

Interesting, but we really cannot proceed until we receive feedback, at least on that aspect.

What is the latest on that moderator feedback?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

I agree with Oakvale that we should not move forward with tabling at this stage. I think at most we should strip the section in question, but before that I would look at potential ways to restructure it to comply with the TOS.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

What would happen if one did not disclose the required information if a subpoena was ordered?

We have always seem to have lapses in the statute when it comes to defining a sentence for contempt of court.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

(On a side note, having a real State Representative respond to my inquiries about fake policymaking is probably the high point of my time on Atlas thus far )

lol

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

It would probably be Sunder before i could compose something. So if anyone else wants to go ahead today, you are more than welcome to.
