in the case of:
The Inviting Shadows of Ghostopolis [Claimant]
vs.
The Javukan Kingdom of Verlzonia [Defendant]
Application:
Claimant nation(s): Ghostopolis
Defendant: Verlzonia
Date(s) of alleged infractions: August 21, 2016
Summary of facts and how this broke the law/rules or violated the Constitution: During the case The Socialist Republic of Cosmosplosion v. The Great Union of Verlzonia, et al, defendant Verlzonia presented falsified evidence to defense counsel Ghostopolis which purported to demonstrate a second individual in the region perpetrated the actions leading to the suit, in violation of s8.2.3 of the constitution. These actions also violate the spirit of court procedure, which calls for a transparent and respectful process.
Remedy/Remedies sought: Formal censure and a permanent ban on Verlzonia using puppet nations in TVF
I, Ghostopolis, hereby certify the above to be correct to the best of my knowledge.
The Minister of Justice has judged your application meritorious. Trial transcript can be viewed here.
Judgement
ALAMEI, MINISTER OF JUSTICE:
1. In The Socialist Republic of Cosmosplosion v. The Great Union of Verlzonia, et al, Verlzonia fabricated a series of telegrams between himself and the nation of Auzzi and, through Ghostopolis, employed them as a vital part of his defense.
2. The willful deception of the court demonstrates a gross lack of respect for all involved parties, undermines and degrades sacrosanct judicial processes, and perverts the course of justice.
3. Regardless of whether Auzzi is usually operated by a separate individual or not, they were, by the defendant's own testimony, an accessory to the deception of the court.
Held: That such deceitful and fraudulent behavior is unacceptable in a system which fundamentally depends upon and values truth above all else.
IT IS ORDERED that Verlzonia, Auzzi and all puppets thereof be banned from the region for 6 months beginning with the date of this judgment.
Judgment delivered:
Sunday, February 12, 2017
