Your Honour,

The Defendant humbly requests judicial review in the MoJ administrative ruling on 1 count of Bank Robbery.

Defendant does not believe that the MoJ has met its burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt.

The District Court finds that appeals of this nature are currently impermissible, due to the lack of a statutory framework for it.

Mr. Wizard may request judicial review of the Ministry of Justice's administrative determination through filing a Civil Complaint against the Ministry of Justice.

If Parliament wishes to preserve the usual order of parties found in Criminal Trials (Azalea Isles v Defendant Accused), rather than the inversion caused by handling review of contestation decisions through Civil Complaint (Plaintiff Accused v Azalea Isles / MoJ), it might wish to consider updating statute to allow review of administrative determinations on misdemeanors to be treated as appeals to the (District) Court.

Signed,
Hon. District Judge Iturgen "jotoho" Bolir

I, Aero Nox, am requesting the review of the finding made by the District Court of Azelea in this matter.

I also implore the Court to hear arguments on this matter, before making its ruling.

First of all, I offer my sincerest apologies for the later response. I had been on a trip to Regalis for approximately two weeks, and I was recently reminded of this request to appeal.

Given that the case filed here does not follow the court template as specified here in any way, please specify:

• Your rationale for seeking an appeal from the Supreme Court.
• If alternatives like filing a properly formatted civil case have been considered.
• The type of appeal you are seeking, pursuant to the Court Reformation Act.
• Any other information you believe may be relevant to your case

I do not see it as appropriate to set a deadline at the moment, so feel free to respond whenever it is most convenient.

Your Honour,

We are making an interlocutory appeal of Judge Bolir's finding that appeals of this nature are currently impermissible and his subsequent dismissal of this matter.

This appeal is a direct result of the interpretation of the District Court's decision in Sagg Wizard v. Ministry of Justice (2026) CV18.

The New Criminal Code Act in Sections 3(l)-(m), uses similar wording when describing a misdemeanor and a felony. Both are defined, for all intents and purposes as a crime. That is to say, a criminal act. The Constitution is clear on what this means for us. Government-led charges for a criminal act come in the form of a criminal trial.

Spoiler: Criminal Code Act, Section 3(l)-(m)

(l) “Misdemeanor” shall be defined, for all intents and purposes, as a crime that may be ruled on by police with evidence provided by police plugin tools or simple context.
(m) “Felony” shall be defined, for all intents and purposes, as a crime which must be indicted and ruled on in a court of law.

Spoiler: Constitution, Role of the Courts

Role of the Courts
The courts shall be responsible for adjudicating disputes within Azalea Isles, through rendering verdicts in civil and criminal trials. Civil trials consist of disputes between two parties seeking compensation, while criminal trials consist of government-led charges for a criminal act.

Section 3(l) of the New Criminal Code Act is clear that the Ministry of Justice ("MoJ") may rule on criminal trials when the criminal act is classified as a misdemeanor. The Court's opinion in Sagg Wizard v. Ministry of Justice (2026) CV 18 reaffirms this.

The Act, and the Court's subsequent decision, has effectively created the concept of an "Administrative Ruling" for criminal trials in the Azalea Isles. The MoJ, through the powers conferred to it by the Act, has in essence become the de facto lowest court in the land, the "Administrative Court". It follows then that rulings made in this "Administrative Court" must be appealable in the District Court, just as rulings made in the District Court are appealable in the Supreme Court.

The second point of the Court's opinion in Sagg Wizard v. Ministry of Justice (2026) CV 18 supports this perspective. After all, a proper challenge of the MoJ's administrative ruling of a criminal trial is an appeal. An appeal which would secure the Defendant's appellate rights. The Court's claim that the appellant should file a civil complaint is unconstitutional. The Constitution is clear that government-led charges for a criminal act, and subsequently any related appeals, are not the subject of a civil trial.

2. However, the Court rejects the interpretation that such administrative determinations by the Ministry of Justice constitute final findings of guilt insulated from judicial review. Claims from the Minister of Justice to suggest that an individual charged with a crime must provide "evidence of innocence" to be considered not guilty are completely unfounded, and not in the spirit of the law whatsoever. Regardless of reasonable limitations, the Constitution still guarantees protections including due process, protection against government overreach, and the right to fair adjudication in Article 1. These protections require that determinations of criminal guilt remain subject to independent judicial oversight when properly challenged.

The fourth point of the decision in Sagg Wizard v. Ministry of Justice (2026) CV 18 simply specifies that the burden for issuing the appeal rests with the Defendant. Which we agree is the only option that makes sense. It would be odd, after all, for the MoJ to appeal its own ruling.

4. The Court maintains that the burden of filing a formal case rests with the individual contesting a misdemeanor, rather than the Ministry. This strategy guarantees access to judicial review while maintaining administrative efficiency. If a case filed by the individual, the Ministry may then be expected to produce evidence of guilt to justify the punishment.

Your Honour, this appeal represents a proper challenge of a criminal conviction in the now de factor lowest court in the land. This appeal was initiated by the Defendant. These two facts are in line with the decision in Sagg Wizard v. Ministry of Justice (2026) CV 18. I, therefore, ask the Supreme Court to overturn the District Court's ruling and dismissal in this matter.
