================= Appeal 2765a (Interest Index = 0) ================== Panelist: Murphy Decision: Panelist: comex Decision: Panelist: woggle Decision: ======================================================================== History: Appeal initiated: 10 Mar 2010 23:17:07 GMT Assigned to Murphy (panelist): (as of this message) Assigned to comex (panelist): (as of this message) Assigned to woggle (panelist): (as of this message) ======================================================================== Appellant coppro's Arguments: Although I do not fault the judge for this, having just noticed it myself, I appeal the question of culpability for this case as I did not breach rule 1922, which imposes no timing requirement on the award. ======================================================================== Detail: http://zenith.homelinux.net/cotc/viewcase.php?cfj=2765 ============== Criminal Case 2765 (Interest Index = 0) =============== coppro violated Rule 1922, a power-1 Rule, by failing to award me the Patent Title Three Months Long Service as soon as possible after I had continuously held the office for three months. ======================================================================== Caller: Yally Barred: coppro Judge: G. Judgement: GUILTY/FINE Appeal: 2765a Decision: (pending) ======================================================================== History: Called by Yally: 23 Feb 2010 01:02:59 GMT Defendant coppro informed: 23 Feb 2010 01:02:59 GMT Assigned to G.: 27 Feb 2010 16:58:52 GMT Judged GUILTY/FINE by G.: 10 Mar 2010 18:40:26 GMT Appealed by coppro: 10 Mar 2010 23:17:07 GMT Appeal 2765a: 10 Mar 2010 23:17:07 GMT ======================================================================== Caller's Evidence: Rule 1922 (Defined Regular Patent Titles): (c) Three Months Long Service, Six Months Long Service, Nine Months Long Service, Twelve Months Long Service, to be awarded by the IADoP to any player who has held a particular Office continuously for the specified duration. Each of these titles shall be awarded only once per player. Rule 1023 (Common Definitions): (a) The phrases "in a timely fashion" and "as soon as possible" mean "within seven days". A requirement to perform an action at an exact instant (e.g. "when X, Y SHALL Z"), but not "in the same message", is instead interpreted as a requirement to perform that action in a timely fashion after that instant. ======================================================================== Judge G.'s Arguments: This is straightforward GUILTY - 1 Rest. However, I'll mention that it is Rude on behalf of the caller; while the Officer is required to track it (and thus can't escape responsibility), it is much more reasonable to remind officers of automatically- triggered events with long fuses before dinging em. Also, This Judge remonstrates the caller for bothering to call a criminal case rather than letting it go as an NoV. I think the 1-Rest fine is the lightest wrist-slap short of discharge; in the current economy it's easier to clear a rest than write an apology. -G. ========================================================================
