v.

The Commonwealth of Redmont
Defendant

COMPLAINT
The Plaintiff complains against the Defendant as follows:

WRITTEN STATEMENT FROM THE PLAINTIFF
On January 11th, 2024, antilethal has put up a petition that is called “Fire the Acting SoS and rehire Human.” On January 15th, 2024, the petition reached 20 signatures and is still receiving signatures each day. The Speaker of House was made aware of this in the petitions thread on the discord server and a congressional affairs ticket. The Speaker of House has yet to put up the referendum.


I. PARTIES
1. xAntho_ny (Plantiff)
2. The Commonwealth of Redmont (Defendant)
3. Bezzergezzer (Speaker of House)
4. antilethal (Original Petition Maker)

II. FACTS

III. CLAIMS FOR RELIEF

Verdict

IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF REDMONT
VERDICT
xAntho_ny v. The Commonwealth of Redmont [2024] DCR3

I. PLAINTIFF'S POSITION
1. A petition was put up about removing the DOS Secretary and it has reached 20 signatures
2. The SoH has failed to make a Referendum as their duty stated in the Referendum Act.

II. DEFENDANT'S POSITION
1. The Defense has failed to give an answer to complaint

III. THE COURT OPINION
1. According to the Referendum act a petition can be made for any reason and once it reaches 20 signatures it goes to a referendum. This Petition has reached the necessary amount of signatures and should have already gone to a referendum.
2. The Referendum act states that it is the Speaker of the House's job to facilitate the referendum however the Constitution contradicts this by including the Facilitation of Referendums as a Responsibilty of the Department of State. Therefore I can not issue a Writ of Mandamus to the Speaker of the House as asked for in the Plaintiff's Prayer of Relief as it is not within the Speaker of the House's powers.

IV. VERDICT
The District court rules in favor of the Plaintiff and grants a modified Prayer of Relief.

The District Court issues a Writ of Mandamus requiring the Department of State to facilitate a referendum for the Removal of the DOS Secretary and the Rehiring of SomeHumanonEarth as for the petition on this topic has reached 20 signatures

The District Court thanks xAntho_ny for their time
