Passing the Amendment of Constitution on Pre-trial Proceedings

Original: The Chief Magistrate must then choose whether or not to permit the case to trial, a decision that must consider whether the plaintiff has standing and whether their allegations, if true, would rise to a claim which relief can be granted. If the trial is permitted, the Chief Magistrate must then decide whether the case should be assigned to the Magistrates’ Court or escalated to the Supreme Court. Both parties must be notified (with pings) if and when proceedings begin. At the start of a trial, the Chief Magistrate must be diligent to assign an impartial Judge to oversee the proceedings and maintain order. Should either the defense or the plaintiff wish to do the trial via voice chat they must notify the Court so that arrangements can be made. If the Chief Magistrate is unable to assign an impartial Judge or ensure an impartial Jury, the President, with the advice of the Senate, the plaintiff, and the defense, is empowered to resolve the issue to ensure a fair trial.
