John Preston
Petitioner,
v.
The Republic of Krameria,
Respondent.
[SC-CV-13]
Submitted to the Supreme Court on June 14th, 2026 at 3:16PM CST
QUESTIONS PRESENTED
OPINION OF THE PLAINTIFF
Title 2, Section 1, Subsection 3 of the Republic Electoral Act of March, 2026 (Title 6, Chapter 1, Part 101, § 101.2, Sub-§ B of the Kramerian Code) is unconstitutional because Article 27 of the Constitution only grants the power to congress to impeach the President and Justices of the Supreme Court and does not prescribe a general method of impeachment applicable to other government officers. Subsection 3 (Sub-§ B) either attempts to invoke a procedure which does not constitutionally exist or attempts to exercise an impeachment power Congress was never granted, and thus unconstitutional and must be struck down.
ARGUMENT
Article 27 only grants Congress impeachment power in two sole instances 1. Impeachment of The President, with the conviction by the Supreme Court. 2. Impeachment of Justices of the Supreme Court with conviction by a panel of former Justices of the Supreme Court. No other impeachment power general or residual power appears in the Constitution. There is no other provision which acts as a catch all category for Impeachment.
On March 15, 2026, Republic Electoral Act of March, 2026 was signed into law, providing that "Directors of the KEB shall be subject to impeachment using the same method as any other government official." This fails for two reasons independent of each other.
First, "the same method as any other government official" refers to a non-existent procedure in the constitution. There are the only two methods of impeachment and as a KEB Director is neither the President or a Supreme Court Justice neither of those two methods of impeachment apply to them.
Secondly, if § 101.2(b) is instead interpreted as Congress attempting to create a new impeachment power for KEB Directors, it exceeds Congress's authority. As Impeachment is not a residual power which falls under Article 27’s “necessary and proper” clause. Allowing Congress to legislate new impeachment categories at will would render Article 27's enumeration meaningless. And even if it was constitutional – which it is not as it would go against Article 27 – The Statute does establish no actual procedure regarding impeachment.
