29th Supreme Council

The 29th Supreme Council is the current iteration of the United States of Quentin Supreme Council, the highest judicial body of the country's federal government composed of seven deciders. The 29th Supreme Council, the second iteration of the body under the Jevic Court, (for Supreme Decider Sue Jevic) first met in the capital of Mechanicsburg on October 7th, 2018, after the death of former Associate Decider Casey Dee and the confirmation of Sam Stephenson to replace her on September 28th. The 29th Council is currently taking place under the presidency of Kyle Lovestington, and it rules on civil and criminal cases along with ruling on the constitutionality of legislation passed by Congress. The 93rd Congress was in session at the same time as the Council, from 2018 to 2020, and the 94th Congress has been in session at the same time as the Council since January 1st, 2020.

The 29th Council is made up of 7 deciders, including Supreme Decider Sue Jevic along with Associate Deciders Kelsey Kinnings, Jordan Feliz, Leonard Bennett, Will Amokxian, Jenna Lautz, and Sam Stephenson. The 29th iteration comes after the 28th Supreme Council, which was the only other Council so far under the Jevic Court, and will be succeeded by the 30th Supreme Council.

Judicial Philosophy

The 29th Supreme Council is one of the more Mild RePublican courts in recent history, as all current deciders were appointed by a Mild RePublican President. However, the Council is less ideological than other state, federal, or foreign courts, with many of the deciders being moderate on issues. The 29th Council's most liberal three deciders are Jordan Feliz, Jenna Lautz, and Sam Stephenson, in that order. The most moderate is seen as being Sue Jevic, and the three most conservative deciders are Will Amokxian, Leonard Bennett, and Kelsey Kinnings, also in that order. The majority of cases during the Council's term were decided 7-0, and often the Council is united on most issues. Some controversial issues include healthcare, gun rights, and drug rights, as well as the employment rights of LGBTQ persons.
