BILL
To

Amend The Constitution

The people of the Commonwealth of Redmont, through their elected Representatives in the Congress and the force of law ordained to that Congress by the people through the constitution, do hereby enact the following provisions into law:

1 - Short Title and Enactment
(1) This Act may be cited as the 'Increase District Court Requirement Act'
(2) This Act shall be enacted immediately upon its signage.
(3) This Act has been authored by: Aladeen22

2 - Reasons

The District Court was designed to be a place for magistrates to learn, however with the requirements needed for a bill to go there being so small they don't have many cases to learn.
