Lawsuit: Pending AnimeInc & KattoC324 v. The Commonwealth of Redmont [2025] SCR 5

[gribble19]

Case Filing

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF REDMONT
CIVIL ACTION


AnimeInc & KattoC324 (both represented by Dragon Law)
Plaintiffs

v.

The Commonwealth of Redmont
Defendant

COMPLAINT
The Plaintiffs complain against the Defendant as follows:

AnimeInc and KattoC324 nominated themselves to the recently held February 2025 elections for the Aventura Mayor and Deputy Mayor. They ran in this election and, according to the certified results, came second in this election only slightly behind the ticket of RylandW and Sleepii_Sloth, who were announced as the winners. The ticket of RylandW and Sleepii_Sloth, however, did not meet the requirements to run for Mayor and Deputy Mayor of a town as set out in the Towns Rights Executive Order and therefore should not have been allowed on the ballot by the Commonwealth of Redmont. By allowing this illegitimate ticket to run for this election the Commonwealth of Redmont has acted in complete disregard of our law and democratic values and not only has the Commonwealth of Redmont allowed them to run, they have even certified them as the winners of this election. A ticket that can not lawfully run in an election, can clearly also not lawfully win an election, therefore the February 2025 elections for Aventura Mayor and Deputy Mayor should have been won by AnimeInc and KattoC324, the ticket with the best result out of the tickets that met the requirements to run in this election.


I. PARTIES
1. AnimeInc (Plaintiff)
2. KattoC324 (Plaintiff)
3. Commonwealth of Redmont (Defendant)

II. FACTS
1. The Towns Rights Executive Order states that one of the requirements a player must meet to run for Mayor or Deputy Mayor of a town is for it to have been 1 month since the player’s initial join date. (See Executive Order 15/24 - Towns RIghts)
2. Sleepii_Sloth first joined the server on January 19 2025. (See P-001)
3. The polls for the February 2025 elections for Mayor and Deputy Mayor of Aventura opened on February 11 2025. (See Mayor Election - FEBRUARY 2025)
4. There is less than a month between January 19 2025 and February 11 2025.
5. The ticket of RylandW and Sleepii_Sloth was not eligible to run for Mayor and Deputy Mayor according to the Towns Rights Executive Order.
6. According to the Department of State, the ticket of AnimeInc and KattoC324 got the second most votes in the February 2025 election for Mayor and Deputy Mayor of Aventura and the ticket of RylandW and Sleepii_Sloth won the same election. (See Mayor Election - FEBRUARY 2025)
7. The tickets of AnimeInc & KattoC324, and lukeyyyMC_ & lucaaasserole were the only two tickets that declared themselves for the Februray 2025 election for Mayor and Deputy Mayor of Aventura and also met the requirements to run in this election. (See Mayor Election - FEBRUARY 2025, II.5)
8. AnimeInc and KattoC324 received 21 first preference votes in the February 2025 election for Mayor and Deputy Mayor of Aventura, while lukeyyyMC_ and lucaaasserole received 4 first preference votes in this same election. (See Mayor Election - FEBRUARY 2025)

III. CLAIMS FOR RELIEF
1. The Towns Rights Executive Order clearly states the requirements needed in order to run for Mayor and Deputy Mayor of a town. One of these requirements, the necessity for it to have been at least one month since the player’s join date, was not met by the ticket of RylandW and Sleepii_Sloth, yet the Commonwealth of Redmont allowed them to run in the election regardless. In doing so, the Commonwealth of Redmont has acted in conflict with the Towns Rights Executive Order.
2. The unlawful behavior of the Commonwealth of Redmont described in III.1 has caused harm to the democratic values at the core of our society. The Commonwealth of Redmont has shown a disregard for the law and failed its task of organizing elections by letting a ticket that was not lawfully allowed to participate in an election do so, and by furthermore announcing the victory of this unlawful ticket in this election and appointing them to positions for which they did not meet the legal requirements to run.
3. Beyond the obvious harm caused to every member of our society, the unlawful behavior of the Commonwealth of Redmont as described under III.1 has also furthermore directly harmed AnimeInc and KattoC324, by making them run against a ticket that was not lawfully allowed to participate, and announcing their loss to this same ticket. This has hurt them in many ways, including but not limited to time-wise and emotionally.

IV. PRAYER FOR RELIEF
The Plaintiffs seek the following from the Defendant:
1. For AnimeInc and KattoC324 to be immediately appointed as the Mayor and Deputy Mayor of Aventura and be declared as the winners of the February 2025 election for Mayor and Deputy Mayor for Aventura. As the plaintiffs ticket was the runner up in this election, and the only ticket that performed better did not meet the requirements to run, they should assume the positions.
2. $5,000 each in Compensatory Damages to be awarded to both AnimeInc and KattoC324 to make up for their time spent preparing and campaigning for the election, as partly illustrated by the campaign messages and graphics created shown in P-002 and P-003, which harmed their earning capacity. (See 4 of Act of Congress - Legal Damages Act)
3. $50,000 each in Punitive Damages to be awarded to both AnimeInc and KattoC324 for the outrageous lack of care and mishandling of the February 2025 Mayoral elections of Aventura by the Department of State. This combined amount is equal to the amount which the state was fined for improper conduct during the January House of Representatives Election in SCR 1 [2025] The Patriotic Coalition of Redmont v. The Commonwealth of Redmont. (See 5 of Act of Congress - Legal Damages Act)
4. $50,000 each in Consequential Damages to be awarded to both AnimeInc and KattoC324 for the emotional damages caused to them due to the improper conduct of this election, whether due to negligence or intentional actions of the Commonwealth of Redmonth. (See 7 of Act of Congress - Legal Damages Act)
5. $63,000 in legal fees, equal to 30% of the total value of this case. (See 9 of Act of Congress - Legal Damages Act)

Motion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF REDMONT
MOTION TO DISMISS

The defence moves that the complaint in this case be dismissed, and in support thereof, respectfully alleges:

1. According to the Towns Rights Executive Order (see https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/executive-order-15-24-towns-rights.21765/), the requirements that the Plaintiff lists are only pertaining to players running for BOTH Mayor AND Deputy Mayor, neither RylandW or Sleepii_Sloth ran for both Mayor and Deputy Mayor, instead they ran for Mayor and Deputy Mayor respectively. Therefore these requirements do not apply to RylandW or Sleepii_Sloth, and their candidacy is therefore legitimate.

2. The Towns Rights Executive Order also states as one of its requirements that: “In order to run for both Mayor and Deputy Mayor, the player must meet these requirements: […] Is an active participant in the community, in-game, on discord, and on the forums.”. AnimeInc, excluding the declaration post for the Adventura Mayor, sent just 1 message in the year of 2025, and the 5 most recent messages date as far back as over 3 months ago (see D-002), this can hardly be considered as active participation on the forums.

3. As seen in the Mayoral Election Post for the February 2025 Mayor Election, the post clearly outlines the requirements to run for Mayor or Deputy Mayor, which are: A declaration, having Aventura residency or own property within the Town, Having a minimum of 12 hours of active playtime in the previous 30 days, and having a minimum of 48 hours of total playtime. Evidence P-001 from the Plaintiff show that Sleepii_Sloth meets the playtime requirements needed to run for Deputy Mayor, furthermore, we can see that Sleepii_Sloth also has their Residency within Adventura (see D-001), and as such meets also requirements to run for Deputy Mayor as outlined by the Department of State.

4. The Plaintiff’s Prayer for Relief 1 calls for AnimeInc and KattoC324 to be immediately appointed as the Mayor and Deputy Mayor of Aventura and be declared as the winners of the February 2025 election for Mayor and Deputy Mayor for Aventura, however the voting system for the February 2025 Mayor Election was a Single Transferable Vote System, which is defined as: 8 - Single Transferrable Vote (STV) System (1) Voting Process. Voters rank candidates in order of preference. (2) Vote Threshold for Election. (a) In order to be elected, a candidate must reach a specific vote threshold, calculated by: dividing the total valid votes by the sum of the number of seats to be filled plus one, and then adding one to the result (disregarding any remainder or fraction): (total number of formal votes / (number of candidates to be elected + 1)) + 1” (see https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/electoral-act.5428/), however as we can see, in the results of the election (see https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/mayor-election-february-2025.24702/), AnimeInc and KattoC324 did not receive a majority of votes.

5. Towns Information states that “Each town is required to have fair elections for at least the position of Mayor and Deputy Mayor.” (see https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/town-information.1532/), however, if AnimeInc and KattoC324 were to be announced as the winners of the election, the majority of voters would not have voted for them, and this would completely infringe upon the “every man a vote” principle, a fundamental element of democratic governance, and not fair, as mandated.

6. The Defense would like to dismiss this case based on Court Rule 5.5 Lack of Claim (see Information - Court Rules and Procedures) , for Claims including the fact that the Plaintiff has failed to properly prove how and why the Plaintiff should have the election overturned in their favour, and directly shown how the election has affected them time-wise and emotionally, especially since there were 3 candidates, and if one of them would have been disqualified, the election would still have proceeded.

7. The Defense would like to dismiss this case based on Rule 5.14 Factual Error (see Information - Court Rules and Procedures)

8. The Constitution states: “I. The right to participate in, and run for elected office, unless as punishment for a crime.” (see Government - Constitution) , and as neither RylandW or Sleepii_Sloth were not punished for a crime, they had the legal authority and right to run for the elected office of Mayor and Deputy Mayor of Adventura.

Objection

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF REDMONT
OBJECTION - BREACH OF PROCEDURE

Your Honor, Rule 5.1 of our Court Rules and Procedures states: "A Motion to Dismiss must specify the Discovery Rule that a lawyer wishes to submit under. The used Rule must be applied using law, facts-in-case, evidence-in-case, or previous court decisions."

Points 1,2,3,4,5 and 8 of this motion do not specify a Discovery Rule, nor is any information given in these points referred to or applied in the two points (6 and 7) which do specify a Discovery Rule.

Your Honor, given that points 1,2,3,4,5 and 8 do not have any valid purpose for this motion to dismiss by Rule 5.1, and simply constitute the Defendant attempting to list possible defenses under the law or fact to our complaint, the information under these points belongs in an Answer to Complaint. Adding all this irrelevant information to a Motion to Dismiss is a Breach of Procedure, and therefore the Plaintiffs respectfully request points 1,2,3,4,5 and 8 of the Motion to Dismiss to be struck.

II. DEFENCES
1. According to the Towns Rights Executive Order (see https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/executive-order-15-24-towns-rights.21765/), the requirements that the Plaintiff lists are only pertaining to players running for BOTH Mayor AND Deputy Mayor, neither RylandW or Sleepii_Sloth ran for both Mayor and Deputy Mayor, instead they ran for Mayor and Deputy Mayor respectively. Therefore these requirements do not apply to RylandW or Sleepii_Sloth, and their candidacy is therefore legitimate.

2. The Towns Rights Executive Order also states as one of its requirements that: “In order to run for both Mayor and Deputy Mayor, the player must meet these requirements: […] Is an active participant in the community, in-game, on discord, and on the forums.”. AnimeInc, excluding the declaration post for the Aventura Mayor, sent just 1 message in the year of 2025, and the 5 most recent messages date as far back as over 3 months ago (see D-002), this can hardly be considered as active participation on the forums.

3. As seen in the Mayoral Election Post for the February 2025 Mayor Election, the post clearly outlines the requirements to run for Mayor or Deputy Mayor, which are: A declaration, having Aventura residency or own property within the Town, Having a minimum of 12 hours of active playtime in the previous 30 days, and having a minimum of 48 hours of total playtime. Evidence P-001 from the Plaintiff show that Sleepii_Sloth meets the playtime requirements needed to run for Deputy Mayor, furthermore, we can see that Sleepii_Sloth also has their Residency within Aventura (see D-001), and as such meets also requirements to run for Deputy Mayor as outlined by the Department of State.

4. The Plaintiff’s Prayer for Relief 1 calls for AnimeInc and KattoC324 to be immediately appointed as the Mayor and Deputy Mayor of Aventura and be declared as the winners of the February 2025 election for Mayor and Deputy Mayor for Aventura, however the voting system for the February 2025 Mayor Election was a Single Transferable Vote System, which is defined as: 8 - Single Transferrable Vote (STV) System (1) Voting Process. Voters rank candidates in order of preference. (2) Vote Threshold for Election. (a) In order to be elected, a candidate must reach a specific vote threshold, calculated by: dividing the total valid votes by the sum of the number of seats to be filled plus one, and then adding one to the result (disregarding any remainder or fraction): (total number of formal votes / (number of candidates to be elected + 1)) + 1” (see https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/electoral-act.5428/), however as we can see, in the results of the election (see https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/mayor-election-february-2025.24702/), AnimeInc and KattoC324 did not receive a majority of votes.

5. Towns Information states that “Each town is required to have fair elections for at least the position of Mayor and Deputy Mayor.” (see https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/town-information.1532/), however, if AnimeInc and KattoC324 were to be announced as the winners of the election, the majority of voters would not have voted for them, and this would completely infringe upon the “every man a vote” principle, a fundamental element of democratic governance, and not fair, as mandated.

6. The Constitution states: “I. The right to participate in, and run for elected office, unless as punishment for a crime.” (see Government - Constitution) , and as neither RylandW or Sleepii_Sloth were not punished for a crime, they had the legal authority and right to run for the elected office of Mayor and Deputy Mayor of Aventura.
