Appeal: Pending INTERLOCUTORY Muggy21 v. Hon Magistrate Vennefly [2026] FCR 4

Brief

IN THE FEDERAL OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF REDMONT
Motion for Interlocutory Relief

Jurisdiction Statement
Under the Subversion of Appeals Act, as it modifies the Judicial Standards Act, an interlocutory appeal is permitted if a "clear error of law occurs during proceedings that materially biases the outcome of the lower case." Plaintiff affirms that the District Court erred as a matter of law, where such error was significant to impact the fairness or accuracy of the ongoing proceedings; and where the delay in resolution of this issue would cause irreparable harm as the lower Court actively violates Plaintiff's constitutional rights.


Preliminary Statement

On November 27th, 2025, Magistrate Dearev requested the assignment of a Public Defender to defend the interests of Defendant. As a result of inactivity and other matters, there was a change in the presiding officer and a public disagreement over the rulings and actions undertaken by Magistrate Vennefly. As a result of the Magistrate's actions, the case has been delayed and prolonged than necessary. On December 14th, 2025, the Magistrate dismissed the assigned public defender and later, on January 1st, 2026, the Magistrate erroneously, and in violation of Plaintiff's constitutional rights, reinstated another Public Defender.

ARGUMENT

I. THE MAGISTRATE EXCEEDED HIS LAWFUL AUTHORITY

On a plain reading of the Constitution, the Judiciary is tasked tasked to "establish and maintain a Public Defender program to provide the assistance of legal counsel" (R. Const § 14). The Courts, where the DCR is a constituent Court therein, are generally charged with making available to the public the assistance of legal counsel. Although the power to assign/summon/dismiss public defenders is not explicitly present in the Constitution, Plaintiff concedes that as a natural consequence of the Court's authority derived under R. Const § 13, the DCR does have a general right to command the Public Defenders Office; This power is regulated and exercised in tradition, under precedence, and under the purview of the Supreme Court's rulemaking authority.

Magistrate Dearev, on receipt of a case where the Defendant did not appear, correctly exercised power in requesting the assistance of a public defender, as per tradition; Plaintiff stresses that there does not exist a statutory provision permitting the Courts to summon a witness for a civil matter. Magistrate Vennefly, in dismissing a lawfully summoned public defender and purportedly summoning another public defender without cause, erred as a matter of law. Under the Charter of Rights, civil litigants enjoy 1)the right to a speedy trial id § 32 (9) and 2) the right to be "equal before and under the law" id § 32 (13).

For the foregoing reasons, the Magistrate violated Plaintiff's constitutional rights as follows:

a. Delays arising from Judicial Overreach violates the Constitution.

The Magistrate’s unauthorized dismissal and reinstatement of a public defender needlessly prolonged these proceedings and infringed Plaintiff’s right to a speedy trial under § 32(9) of the Charter. The Supreme Court has consistently enforced strict adherence to constitutionally prescribed procedures, holding that governmental actors may not cure violations through discretionary improvisation.


Such delay was not the product of party conduct or legitimate case management, but of actions taken beyond the Magistrate’s lawful authority. When judicial intervention itself becomes the source of delay, it ceases to be harmless error and instead constitutes a constitutional violation, particularly where it disrupts the orderly progression of a civil matter and prejudices a litigant’s ability to obtain timely relief (see Prodigium & Partners at Law v. The Commonwealth of Redmont, [2021] SCR 1). Further, constitutional powers must only be exercised through established and codified procedures (see Krix v. The Commonwealth of Redmont, [2024] SCR 8). Here, the Magistrate’s unilateral dismissal and reinstatement of public defenders, absent statutory authority or procedural justification, introduced avoidable delay attributable solely to judicial overreach, thereby violating Plaintiff’s constitutional protections and necessitating interlocutory relief.

b. Discretionary utilization of Judicial Power violates the Constitution

The Supreme Court of the Commonwealth has made clear that when parties lawfully resolve a dispute and no live controversy remains, continued judicial involvement is improper. In hugebob23456 v. Commonwealth of Redmont, the Court dismissed the action after the Legislature remedied the alleged defects, recognizing that voluntary resolution rendered further adjudication unnecessary and that judicial restraint was required once the dispute became moot. By dismissing a valid settlement agreement without identifying illegality, coercion, or procedural defect, the Magistrate departed from settled precedent favoring finality, and improperly prolonged litigation that had already been resolved.



For the above reasons, Plaintiff prays for the following:

1) A Writ of Mandamus, or an equivalent order, dismissing the Public Defenders Office.
2) An order requiring the assigned Magistrate to consider Plaintiff's original settlement agreement.
3) An order stating a Magistrate lacks the authority to summarily prolong a case through improper actions.
4) All other relief that the Honourable Court deems appropriate and just.



As this is an interlocutory appeal against the Magistrate, it is in the Plaintiff's humble opinion that the Defendant, or his Public Defender, be summoned to defend this action.
