Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Description[?]:
| Members of the Parliament, The Alliance of Evil find the long and often tiresome process of justice in this country to be lacking the actual process of convicting those who are troublesome and scum to the state. The Alliance wishes to scrap the old bureaucratic system and instil a new system based on his Evilness Iron Claw who will (with the aid of his loyal and evil panel) determine who is guilty and not guilty of their crimes. Judge Doom Representative for Corrupt Justice of the Alliance of Evil |
