Could the honorable gentleman please explain his position on both the current case being heard, as well as the monarchy controversy, specifically whether or not it should be legal for individuals to actively campaign to replace the president with a monarch?"

MessageMdm. Senator

If your referring to the Gwen McCreight vs. Rocc Cola Case I don't have an opinion until I'm presented with evidence in my capacity as a Justice. I'd rather not comment on any open cases until either the case as been resolved or I've been rejected by the Senate.

I have no opinion in either case of the Monarchy or the Republic debate; I am a student of Law first and foremost, it's why I've avoided public office nearly my entire career, aside from my stint as Crown Attorney for Port Prosperity.

As for the legality of actively campaigning, i think its legal as is campaigning for most kinds of government reform as long as it remains peaceful and doesn't break any current laws. If the law was changed to outlaw then id have a different opinion.
