The DoJ Evidence Act

A
Bill
To


Establish the Ability for the DoJ to request Search Warrants.

The Parliament of Stratham enacts:

Section 1. Short Title

(1) This Act is The DoJ Act

Section 2. Commencement

(1) All Provisions shall come into effect upon passage of the bill

Section 3. Reasoning

(1) Currently the DoJ is trying to limit/halt the possession and or distribution of illegal items such as schedule 1/0 drugs, that were made illegal without schedule cards issued by the DoH under The Weed Act, within Stratham's Society.

The DoJ currently has the power to frisk someone whilst they are handcuffed. This allows the Officer to search the criminals person. However they are unable to search the persons address for any further drugs.

This Act will stand to make it so that the DoJ, provided they can prove to the court (beyond reasonable doubt), that the criminal may have more drugs stored at their address, can ascertain a search warrant from the court for all properties owned by the criminal in order to search for drugs.

The search warrants must be carried out by a Senior officer (sergeant or above) of the DoJ.

Section 4. Search Warrant

(1) The DoJ can ascertain a search warrant from the courts provided they can prove, beyond reasonable doubt that the criminal may have more drugs in a chest/barrel at their address/shop and not be in possession of the relevant Schedule Card.

(a) Proof must be in the form of a message, or if the criminal has a criminal record for drugs of 2 or more drugs offenses.

Section 5. Abuse of Search Warrant

(1) If the DoJ requests a search warrant, and takes anything other than drugs from a players chest/address, they must face the consequences of infraction/job loss. This is determinable by the minister, and the courts if necessary.
