Case Filing

IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF REDMONT
CIVIL ACTION

v.

Commonwealth of Redmont (Department of Commerce)
Defendant

COMPLAINT
The Plaintiff complains against the Defendant as follows:

WRITTEN STATEMENT FROM THE PLAINTIFF

To properly structure his law firm, Slime_Mario attempted to register "S.M. Law LLC" with the Department of Commerce. Despite meeting every statutory requirement of the Legal Entity Act, the Department of Commerce denied his Certificate of Formation. The DoC enforced an executive policy that converts provisions specified as optional by the law into mandatory requirements. Furthermore, the DoC falsely claimed that the name of Slime_Mario's company in the business plugin, “S.M.Law”, was incompatible with the in-game DB. This claim is proven completely false, as he indeed successfully registered the same name in-game. This denial deprives him from the right to practice law under the legal protections of a limited liability company. The Plaintiff brings this action to ensure his statutory rights, compel the registration of his firm, and hold the Executive Branch accountable to Redmont law.

I. PARTIES
1. Slime_Mario (Plaintiff)

3. On June 5, 2026, the Department of Commerce denied the Plaintiff's application, citing discrepancies based on the Legal Entity Act and their Business Incorporation Policy [Exhibit P-002].
4. In its Rejection Notice [Exhibit P-002], the Department of Commerce claimed the business plugin name "S.M.Law" was invalid because "an in-game DB cannot be formatted with symbols like this."

There is no set structure to the discussion, however the following question must be addressed:

10. The Executive Standards Act, Section 9, Subsection 1 reads (excerpt):

(a) Maintaining a prosperous national economic state.

(b) Advancing employment opportunities and guidelines for occupations.

11. The Verdict of Dartanman v. Commonwealth of Redmont [2022] FCR 97 reads (excerpt):

2. It is written in the Constitution that the Executive branch “administers and enforces the law respectively, as written by the legislature and interpreted by the judiciary”.
3. These two statements are written clearly for the intent to outline exactly what each branch may and may not do.
4. Thus, it is the opinion of the court that anything to the contrary of these two statements must pass by a Constitutional amendment.
6. The Executive branch may not interpret laws without a Constitutional amendment giving it the power to. Likewise, the Judicial branch may not enforce or execute laws without a Constitutional amendment providing it with the power to do so.

12. The Redmont Civil Code Act, Part XI, Section 7 reads:

7. Failure to Perform Statutory Duty
Violation Type: Negligent
Remedy: Writ of Mandamus

(a) being a government officer or body, fails to perform a duty required by law; and

15. The Verdict of xLayzur & Krix v. Politico [2023] FCR 62 reads (excerpt):

The Federal Court hereby rules in favor of the Plaintiff, and grants a modified Prayer for Relief.
The Federal Court orders the Department of Justice to fine the Defendant $2,500 (Nominal Damages) and unfine Co-Plaintiff Krix the same amount.

16. The Department of Commerce denied the Plaintiff's application because it contained no provisions regarding ownership and management, capital contributions, profit and loss distribution, transfer of membership, amendments, bylaws, and dissolution [Exhibit P-002]. All of these provisions are categorized as optional under the LEA.

17. The Plaintiff did not suffer direct financial damages from this denial, but remains unable to operate his law form under an LLC as sought through the application, and is thereby deprived of the legal benefits associated with an LLC.

III. CLAIMS FOR RELIEF

1. Ultra Vires Executive Action
   1. The Constitution of the Commonwealth of Redmont vests legislative power in the Congress and executive authority in the President.
   2. Under Dartanman v. Commonwealth [2022] FCR 97, the Executive branch may exercise only those powers explicitly granted by law.
   3. The Legal Entity Act explicitly distinguishes between mandatory requirements (what a certificate "shall set forth") and optional provisions (what a certificate "may set forth").
   4. The Department of Commerce's "Business Incorporation Policy" treats optional provisions as mandatory requirements.
   5. The Department's policy explicitly states that its provisions are "subject to current Business formation rules, as detailed within the Legal Entity Act". By its very own terms, the policy is subject to the LEA and cannot override it.
   6. In denying the Plaintiff's application, the Department of Commerce enforced mandatory requirements that Congress explicitly set as optional provisions under the LEA.
   7. By denying the formation of the LLC based on requirements not set by Congress and not found within the LEA, the Department of Commerce exceeded its lawful authority and acted ultra vires.
2. Failure to Perform Statutory Duty
   1. Part XI, Section 7 of the Redmont Civil Code Act establishes a civil violation when a government officer or body fails to perform a duty required by law and that failure causes harm to the plaintiff.
   2. The Department of Commerce is charged under Section 9 of the Executive Standards Act with the registration of companies.
   3. The Plaintiff submitted an application that complied with all of the requirements in the Legal Entity Act.
   4. Because the Plaintiff satisfied every requirement in the LEA, the Department of Commerce was required by law to register the company.
   5. In denying the application exclusively upon requirements not found in the LEA, the Department of Commerce failed to perform its statutory duty. This failure caused harm by depriving the Plaintiff of the legal benefits associated with an LLC.
   6. Under Redmont law, a Writ of Mandamus is the established remedy for a Failure to Perform Statutory Duty.
   7. Since the Department of Commerce has failed to perform its statutory duty, a Writ of Mandamus that compels the DoC to approve the Plaintiff's Certificate of Formation is appropriate.
3. Factually Erroneous Denial
   1. In denying the Plaintiff's Certificate of Formation, the Department of Commerce claimed that "S.M.Law" was an invalid database name because the database could not format symbols like "." [Exhibit P-002].
   2. This claim is contradicted by Exhibit P-001 and the official public business registry at S.M.Law · DemocracyCraft Economy Explorer, both of which prove that the Plaintiff successfully registered the name in the in-game database.
   3. The Department of Commerce's blatant factual error proves that the DoC failed to perform even a basic verification before issuing their denial.

IV. PRAYER FOR RELIEF
The Plaintiff seeks the following from the Defendant:

1. A Declaratory Judgment declaring that the Department of Commerce's "Business Incorporation Policy" may not treat provisions designated as optional under the Legal Entity Act as mandatory requirements.
2. A Writ of Mandamus compelling the Department of Commerce to immediately approve and register the Certificate of Formation for "S.M. Law LLC" as it fully satisfies the requirements of the Legal Entity Act.
3. $2,500.00 in Nominal Damages to recognize the infringement of the Plaintiff's right to form an LLC.
   1. Part III, Section 4 of the Redmont Civil Code Act establishes nominal damages which recognize the infringement of a right even in the absence of substantial damages.
   2. In xLayzur & Krix v. Politico [2023] FCR 62, the Federal Court awarded nominal damages of $2,500.00 after ruling in favor of the plaintiff and granting a modified prayer for relief.
   3. The Plaintiff seeks a consistent amount of $2,500.00 in nominal damages.
4. $3,000.00 in Legal Fees, payable to Slime_Mario, per the mandatory minimum for District Court civil cases under Civil Code Part III, Section 7.

EVIDENCE:
* P-001: Screenshot of the successful in-game business registration of "S.M.Law."

* P-002: Screenshot of the Department of Commerce Rejection Notice sent to the Plaintiff on June 5, 2026.

* P-003: The Plaintiff's original Certificate of Formation for "S.M. Law LLC," submitted on June 3, 2026.

WITNESSES:
