I protoed these about a month ago and never proposed them.

Proposal: 2158 changes. (AI=2)

Amend Rule 2158 by replacing:
      Within a judicial case, one or more judicial questions may
      arise.  Each judicial question is either inapplicable (default)
      or applicable; this is not a persistent status but is evaluated
      instantaneously.  Each judicial question either is open
      (default), suspended, or has a particular judgement; this is a
      persistent status that changes only according to the rules.  The
      possible types of judgement for a judicial question vary
      according to the type of question.

      When a judicial case has an applicable open judicial question,
      it requires a judge, and its judge CAN assign a valid judgement
      to that question by announcement.  Whenever there is a judge
      assigned to a judicial case with an applicable open question,
      the judge SHALL assign such a judgement to the question as soon
      as possible.

      Whenever a judicial case has a judicial question that has
      remained applicable and open, while the same judge has been
      assigned to the case, continuously for the past week, the CotC
      CAN recuse that judge with cause by announcement.  Whenever a
      judicial case has a judicial question that has remained
      applicable and open, while the same judge has been assigned to
      the case, continuously for the past two weeks, the CotC SHALL so
      recuse the judge as soon as possible.
with:
      Within a judicial case, one or more judicial questions may
      arise.  Each judicial question is either inapplicable (default)
      or applicable, as defined by the rules.  Suspension is a
      judicial question switch, tracked by the CotC, with values of
      Null (default) and Suspended.  A judicial question is open if
      it does not have a judgement.  The possible types of judgement
      for a judicial question vary according to the type of question.
      
      When a judicial case has an applicable open judicial question,
      it requires a judge, and its judge SHALL as soon as possible
      assign a valid judgement to that question by announcement.
      
      Whenever a judicial case has a judicial question that has
      remained applicable and open, while the same judge has been
      assigned to the case, continuously for the past week, the CotC
      SHALL within two weeks recuse that judge with cause by
      announcement.


[[Switchifies status, thereby removing the annoying evaluated clauses.  
Takes advantage of the fact that specifying a method implies CAN to add 
brevity.]]

Proposal: Stare Decisis (AI=1)
Create a new rule, at power=1, titled "Stare Decisis":
      The CotC's Monthly Report shall include the Stare Decisis, which
      is a list of past CFJs.  The following information shall be
      included for each CFJ:

        (i) its statement;
       (ii) the date on which it was called;
      (iii) the status of each of its judicial questions.

      Whenever a CFJ is made, the CotC shall add it to the list.  E
      may, at eir discretion, add earlier CFJs.  E may Without
      Objection remove any CFJ e deems no longer relevant from the
      list.
