It is the desire of the Landsraad, comprised of the Dukes assembled, to recommend to the Kaiser that the following two clauses be stricken from Article IV of the Charter:
Section B: Right to Counsel
No one shall be deprived of counsel of zir choice without restriction in any legal proceeding in Shireroth.

Section C: Equality of Dukes and Duchies
All Dukes and Duchies are equal under the Kaiser. No Duke or Duchy shall be deprived of it's equality without the consent of the Kaiser, the Duke of the Duchy concerned, and the Landsraad.
Should the Kaiser agree to grant this request, the Landsraad hereby orders the Praetor, as an Officer of the Landsraad, to grant approval to the Kaiser to amend the Charter as specified.

If the Kaiser wishes, the Landsraad assents to the notion of placing Section B within the Decreebook or Lawbook, or to place one or both of the clauses into the jurisdiction of the Landsraad to vote upon as two separate bills, and put into the Lawbook or Procedures of the Landsraad, as would apply.

*This* is what I was looking for: A Praetor who actually gets stuff passed on time :)

Straylight doesn't really see how this protects anybody's honor, but votes AYE anyway.

Unfortunately, this requires a unanimous vote from the Dukes of Shireroth. So despite "time being up" soon, the remaining two Dukes MUST vote yes, as well as approval from the Prætor and Arbiter (and founder? I think so).

I'm quite approving of this Prætor, though. :kaiser
