For Role Play purposes, we really need a law on right to trial by jury.

Excellent suggestions were made here, though ideology effects need to be added. @MODS, would those proposals receive a favorable treatment from you if players went to the effort of adding effects to that thread?

A less thorough proposal was apparently rejected here.

I think this was previously rejected because Moderation at the time thought this was more of a constitutional type of law, and we cannot add constitutional variables to the game. But personally I don't think that should prevent something like this from being added. There's plenty of more expansive laws that are just implemented as regular variables. If people come up with reasonable ideology effects I'd be open to adding this to the game.

I would settle for more laws being implemented again.

You'd have to make a new thread for that.
