It is imperative that we, as a collective Regional Government, protect the right of the plaintiff and accuser regarding a crime to decide the form which justice may take.

1-1: Both the plaintiff and an accuser may request a “Trial by Combat,” defined as a melee, joust, or archery duel to solve a dispute.

1-2: The “Trial by Combat” must be agreed upon by both parties, and its terms approved by the Ministry of Justice with the advice and consent of the House of the Collective.

1-3: Specific parameters regarding arms, armor, and boundaries shall be proposed by the parties and approved by the Ministry of Justice. Failure to follow these parameters will result in a mistrial.

1-4: The Ministry of Justice, upon denial of a case, may make a non-binding recommendation of a “Trial by Combat.”1-5: The outcome of a “Trial by Combat” shall be agreed upon by the parties, but may not violate the interests of individual nations nor the interests of the House of the Collective.
