How to Abuse ASUC Rules, Part 1: Disqualifying Your Enemies

Step 1, File an election lawsuit against a rival political party that requires that the rival party be disqualified.

Step 2, Recruit people to taunt members of the rival political party until at least one rival party member does something to get the J-Council to declare them in contempt. "Respect my authoritah!" says the J-Council in true South Park-like fashion.

Step 3, Using article 4.15, section 3, subsection 2 of the Judicial Council's Rules of Procedure, get the rival party disqualified. According to article 4.15, section 3, subsection 2 of the Judicial Council's Rules of Procedure, "Individuals found in contempt may be asked to leave the proceedings, may be forcibly removed from proceedings, may be disallowed from appearing again before the Council, and a default judgment issued against the party the participant sought to benefit." Since a member of the rival party committed "contempt of council" and your remedy was to have the rival party disqualified, J-Council will get the rival party disqualified, regardless of the merits of the original lawsuit.

Try it! It's hella fun! It works just as easily against Student Action as it does against DAAP.
