| Message | That is why we have an appelant court already. This bill will limit the number of appeals and it'll leave other procedures that were violated stand because they are not grave. This is in fact, an injustice if this bill passes. We oppose. |

| Random fact: It is the collective responsibility of the players in a nation to ensure all currently binding RP laws are clearly outlined in an OOC reference bill in the "Bills under debate" section of the nation page. Confusion should not be created by displaying only some of the current RP laws or displaying RP laws which are no longer current. |
