Section 7. Corruption of Judicial Members
(1) The Stratham Bar Association shall have the sole power to try and remove a Judge.
(2) The process of accusing a Judicial Member of corruption is follows:
- A lawyer notifies the Executive Committee of the SBA of their intent to accuse a Judge.
- The lawyer must provide enough evidence to the Committee to prove that they have sufficient evidence to start a case.
- If sufficient evidence is provided, a hearing channel will be created on discord where the Chairman of the SBA shall be the presiding officer along with the Executive Committee as a panel.
- The panel will summon the Judge with the full force of authority as a judicial summons. The lawyer who initiates the case shall act as the plaintiff and the Judge shall be the defendant.
- After the Judge has responded to the hearing, the process of selecting a Jury of 5 members from the general membership of the SBA shall begin. If 5 jurors can not be selected then 3 instead may act as the Jury. In the case 3 can not be selected the trial shall proceed without a jury.
- The plaintiff and defendant or their lawyers shall collectively select the Jury ensuring they have minimal to no conflict of interest or bias in the case or to either sides whatsoever.
- Once a jury has been selected, the case will proceed following the normal procedure of any trial.
- Once the trial ends, the Jury will collectively decide on whether to recommend to the panel the removal of the Judge and find them guilty or not. In order for any decision to prevail it must have a majority vote.
- Once the Jury has recommended the decision, the panel will deliberate on whether to accept the recommendation or not.
(3) All SBA members must perform Jury duty when called on by the Executive Committee.
