This is definitely "largely the same purpose".  The original rule was 3
paragraphs, the new rule is the 2nd paragraph of the old rule verbatim
(except for changes in officer names).  The missing paragraphs were the
added process (for the same purpose) that seemed unneeded.  I'll fix the
title thing though.

Yeah, that was changed to a SHOULD in the current version.

I'm pretty sure that me trying to do both at the same time is why we had to

If the referee is the main interested party, the caller need do nothing,
other than possibly barring the referee from being the judge using the
existing barring clause.

Still, the original rule actually had more process, and I streamlined it in
this submission, but I wasn't sure if I was streamlining too much.  Here's
the full process that it had ("Justiciar" is the Referee-equivalent, CotC is
Arbitor-equivalent):

  The initiator of a judicial case CAN submit it to the Justiciar
  by announcement.  For such a case, the Justiciar CAN, in a
  timely manner, either accept or reject the case by announcement;
  until this time limit expires or the Justiciar rejects the case,
  the CotC CANNOT perform any of eir office's duties with regards
  to the case and does not incur any of eir office's obligations
  with regards to it.

  If the Justiciar accepts the case, e switches places with the
  CotC entirely with regards to that case; [...]

At the time, there was a bit more process in CFJs so the Arbitor could exert
influence in several places, with our current streamlined system the Arbitor
really only chooses the Judge (and the caller can further bar a particular
judge).  But I could definitely put the process back if my draft isn't
protective enough, I was on the fence in the first place.

But to be clear, this is only intended to be a first line of defense, so he
Caller of the CFJ here has the option to pick whether the Arbitor
compromised enough to use the referee to make the assignment instead, just
as a precaution.  It ultimately comes down to the judge, not the
Arbitor/Referee.  Given that, I wasn't sure that the "Referee can accept or
not" idea was value-added given that it adds a layer of delay.  The real
defense remains in the Moots, which is more dependent on the Judge than the
Arbitor - this is meant to head off potential Moots but was never a
cure-all.

the Arbitor).

Maybe that's a little too convoluted--but I do think there's a need to
account for the situation where the Referee is the interested party,
rather than (or in addition to) the Arbitor.

I submit the following Proposal:  Arbitor-free justice, AI-2:


Re-enact Rule 2246 (name at repeal: Submitting a CFJ to the Justiciar),
at Power-2, with the title "Submitting a CFJ to the Referee", and the
following text:

When a person initiates a Call for Judgement, e CAN, optionally,
submit it to the Referee by announcement. All persons are
ENCOURAGED to submit a case to the Referee only when there is a
good reason not to let it be processed by the Arbitor as usual.

When a CFJ is submitted to the Referee, the Referee receives all
obligations and powers for the specific case that the Arbitor
would otherwise receive due to being Arbitor.  This takes
precedence over Rules that would otherwise assign duties and
powers regarding a judicial case to the Arbitor.
