[made the wording a bit clearer, fixed the holes i mentioned]

== Appendment ==
The Court is an organization with the power to resolve certain disputes and disagreements.
* If there is a disagreement about the interpretation of the Laws or the Constitution, the court has the power to decide which interpretation is correct.
* If there is a disagreement about whether some party has some object, or some other factual matter about the state of the game, the court has the power to decide the truth.
The court's procedures specify how the court must make its decisions, how membership in the court is determined, and how these procedures may be amended. If no court procedure has yet been defined, the council may vote to define it.

== Initial Court Procedures ==
# A Judge is a member of the court. Judges must be real people, and there must always be at least 1 judge. If there are fewer than 2 judges, the council may vote to appoint one.
# A person may become a judge if they are supported by >50% of the current judges, as well as 2 people who are neither judges nor council members.
# A judge may resign at any time, unless they are the only judge.
# Before formally accepting a case, the court should encourage involved parties to establish a consensus themselves.
# A single presiding judge is arbitrarily assigned to each accepted case. A judge who is party to a dispute may not preside over its case.
# A case pertaining to a previous court decision is known as an appeal. Appeals of appeals will not be accepted.
# A case must be decided as follows:
## The presiding judge (hereafter the judge) hears a description of the dispute from each involved party. The judge drafts a docket, which is a short but comprehensive description of the dispute, containing:
##* all necessary background information for a person unfamiliar with the Having Game to understand all relevant aspects of the dispute; and,
##* a finite set of outcomes for the case.
## The judge presents the docket to the parties, who have the chance to request revisions, though these requests may not be accepted.
## An outsider is a person uninvolved with the Having Game. The judge asks people involved with the having game, but who are not parties to the case, to poll outsiders. The judge decides which outsiders will be polled.
##* Each outsider must not be prompted or influenced to choose any particular answer.
##* The relation between each outsider to their poller must be disclosed.
##* Each outsider's response must be recorded exactly, ideally with any commentary they consider relevant.
## The judge must allow sufficient time to collect all responses, and must consider each recieved response, unless:
##* a response was not collected following court procedures; or,
##* the judge considers the outsider to have a conflict of interest.
## The outcome which has majority support among polled outsiders is selected. If there is a tie, the judge breaks it.
# The court procedures may be amended by agreement of >50% of judges. If the court procedures are amended during a case, the case follows the procedures as they were defined when the case was first accepted.
