Jacob idles out automatically after a week of inactivity. Quorum drops to 3.

In this Malpractice case, Elizabeth accuses Anne of having insufficiently practiced her portion of a duet performed during karaoke at a gathering. The Judge knows this isn’t what “malpractice” means, and even if it were there are unlikely to be actual damages here, but the paperwork is properly filed. What are you gonna do.

Remove “Each Attorney represents a set of Clients, defaulting to none. Which Clients an Attorney represents is tracked below.” from the ruleset.

To the start of “Representations”, add:-

Each Attorney (including idle Attorneys) represents a set of Clients, defaulting to none. Which Clients an Attorney represents is tracked in the following bullet list.

Add, to the list in “Representations”, the representations that were held by all idle Attorneys immediately prior to the processing of the “Open Book” rule.

Enact a new rule, “Fiscal Victory”:-

An Attorney’s Worth is equal to their Money, excluding any Money that they were given by other Attorneys in the previous 48 hours. It does not include their Slush Fund.

If an Attorney has a Worth exceeding $100,000, and more Worth than every other Attorney, and is also the first Attorney to have met these criteria this dynasty, then that Attorney has achieved victory.

In “Clients”, replace

As a weekly action, an Attorney with fewer than three Clients may take on a new Client by privately making a request to the Judge which specifies a set of Clients by the stats listed in the Pool (eg. “all Business Clients worth above $750,000”, “all Clients with the surname Chamberlain”, “Morgan, James, Anne or State of Connecticut”). At any time (except on Saturday or Sunday), the Judge may process a request chosen at secretly-random from all unprocessed requests that they have received. When such a request is processed, if the specified set includes any Clients (excluding non-State Clients who are already represented by other Attorneys, and Clients who Mistrust the requesting Attorney), a secretly random one of those Clients is added to the set of Clients that the requesting Attorney represents. The Attorney is then privately informed of the outcome of their request.

with:

As a weekly action, an Attorney with fewer than three Clients may take on a new Client by updating the list below. The new Client must not be a non-State Client who is already represented by any other Attorney, and the new Client must not Mistrust the Attorney.

If an Attorney made any requests for a new Client that were processed since the submission of this Proposal, consider those requests to be a update under the new text of the rule for the purposes of determining whether this action is a weekly action.

Add, to the list in “Clients”, the representations that were considered to be held by all idle Attorneys prior to the processing of “Open Book”.

In this Malpractice case, Robert is accusing Casey of acting inappropriately in the role of a dentist when Casey helped Robert’s youngest child pull out a loose baby tooth. On one hand, Casey isn’t a dentist, and has never claimed to be; the judge really should throw out the case on these grounds. But it’s also so weird that the judge wants to see where this one is going.

In a groundbreaking corporate Personal Injury case, X Express claims that Elizabeth committed “bodily harm” to the business when she broke a coffeemaker during a visit to the X Express offices.

Amend the rule “Clients” by adding the following to the Pool of Clients:

Albert Fumbledork: Impeccable Adult; Worth $900,000
Rom Tiddle: Corrupt Adult; Worth $821,000
Professor Q. Squirrel: Corrupt Adult; Worth $420,00
Percy Weasle: Impeccable Child; Worth $543,000
Hermine Stranger: Respected Child; Worth $327,000
Larry Bopper: Decent Child; Worth $446,000
Rob Weasle: Suspicious Child; Worth $238,000
Lucy Tinfoil: Corrupt Child; Worth $329,000
State of Rhode Island: Decent State; Worth $82,000,000
State of Delaware: Corrupt State; Worth $118,000,000
Fakelook: Corrupt Business; Worth $1,070,000

StripedMaple idles out automatically after seven days without making a blog post or comment. Quorum remains 4.

If no rule called “Open Book” exists in the ruleset, replace “An Attorney may request to drop a Client at any time by privately making such a request to the Judge: on receiving such a request, the Judge should remove that Client from the set that the Attorney represents.” in “Gaining and Losing” with:-

An Attorney may stop representing a Client at any time by removing themselves as the Attorney of that Client in the rule “Clients”.

Hello, all! I wish to become Unidle.

In this Negligence case, Robert accuses Goldberg Technology of neglecting to file earnings reports in a timely manner, causing Robert to have lost on potential trading earnings.

In a bizarre Defamation case, Isabel is suing Goldberg Technology. The alleged defaming claims by the technology firm are so unspeakable that their nature is sealed by the court.

I as well would like to become a player here. Hopefully StripedMaple and I can add some things of interest.

To “Banking”, add:-

As a weekly action, the Judge may post a blog entry announcing the number of Attorneys who have a Slush Fund greater than zero, and the size in dollars of the largest Slush Fund.

Enact a new rule, “Open Book”:-

The Judge may, if they have not already done so, create a bulleted list at the end of “Clients” which lists the Attorneys of all Clients who are represented by Attorneys, then replace the words “tracked privately by the Judge” with “tracked below” in that rule.

If the above action has been taken, the Judge may repeal this rule.

In this Unpaid Debt case, Casey claims that Morgan owes them for the catering at a party thrown by the family years ago.

In yet another corporate Defamation case, Goldberg Technology is accusing Joshua Chamberlain of making false claims related to Anne’s case against Goldberg.

I am now Idle, and will probably remain so until 2019.

There are 6 attorneys, and quorum remains 4.

For each Business Client, set its Reputation to a random value.
