The Court rules on various inter-micronational affairs between LOSS member states, but does not rule on internal legal issues in Patria or other micronations. Note that Patria's legal system is not based on Anglo-Saxon/Anglo-American Common Law but on a Napoleonic-style civil code. If you are unfortunate enough to get arrested in Patria, note that you are considered GUILTY UNTIL PROVEN INNOCENT, particularly if charged with a heinous crime such as kiddie porn or statutory rape. Just be thankful that Patria has abolished the death penalty, despite the National Union's ongoing effort to bring back public executions.
In another legal issue (see previous blog entry), the Occupy Castoropolis protesters are still camped out in Vivekananda Park, having survived at least two attempts to evict them by Federal District of Castoropolis police, tear gas, rubber bullets and pepper spray at the ready. But they should be gone in a week or two, when it just gets too damn cold to camp out in tents. Yes, Patria does get snow and a real winter, as you might have guessed by the presence of the Patrienish Hockey League.
