The Grand Xussman Empire files a Letter of Invocation to the International Court of Terraconserva.

Letter of Invocation

a) The continuation of a sentence or detainment in Paleocacher is illegal per TCN026.

b) The incident should necessitate a Cross-Borders Criminal Trial, due to the involvement of Reia, Paleocacher, and Xusma, as "the same occurrence of an action occurs between two or more states, and there is not a uniform legal policy in both states in regards to that action, any pursued charges must be pursued in the Terraconserva International Court unless all nations agree to defer it to one for resolution on the matter,"

b2) "Specifies that if the same occurrence of an action occurs between two or more states, and there is not a uniform legal policy in both states in regards to that action, any pursued charges must be pursued in the Terraconserva International Court unless all nations agree to defer it to one for resolution on the matter”

c) Xusma has the right to invoke the following clause "A member state of the Council of Nations which feels the case is better suited to the Terraconserva International Court and can argue its reasoning for this in a formally written "Letter of Invocation" to the court, which must accept or reject the argument,"

d) Xusma will file an "International Lawsuit" for the violations of TCN026 and TCN027 against the government of Paleocacher.

The Republic of Paleocacher's Department of Foreign Affairs and the Office of the Attorney General Have Filed a Joint Letter of Invocation to the Terraconserva International Court

1) The Paleocacherian Government concedes the Xussman government's point. It is a continuing violation of TCN 026 now that that resolution has been passed and the Xussman government has filed a protest.

2)Therefore the Paleocacherian government is petitioning the Terraconserva International Court to begin a cross-borders criminal trial for the three detained mercenaries, the three mercenaries that were deported to Xussma, several officials of G4S including the CEO Lev Shchegolyayev, and the company G4S itself. The international nature of the case was created when mercenaries from a Xussman company made illegal entry into Paleocacherian territory, committed five murders and then fled to international waters. Furthermore, under Xussman law the defendants would not be prosecuted because mercenary activities are legal in the Xussman Empire. Therefore the criteria for a cross-border criminal trial of the named defendants is met: "the same occurrence of an action occurs between two or more states, and there is not a uniform legal policy in both states in regards to that action, any pursued charges must be pursued in the Terraconserva International Court unless all nations agree to defer it to one for resolution on the matter."

3) The Paleocacherian government seeks to charge all of the defendants with first degree murder, conspiracy to commit murder, solicitation to commit murder, murder of a police officer, murder of a public official, three counts of second degree manslaughter, twenty three counts of assault on a police officer, two counts of arms trafficking, one count of illegal entry, and jaywalking.

4) On behalf of the families of the victims, the Paleocacherian government is petitioning that the International Court take on the case of a class action lawsuit filed by the victims of the G4S assault in Liberty City. The class action lawsuit alleges wrongful death and seeks 1.25 billion selkies in damages.

5) While there are no specific provisions for lawsuits in the international court other than that of an international lawsuit where violations of a TCN resolution are heard, the Paleocacherian government seeks that the court hear this case in the interest of justice.
