Day 272, 14:22 • Published in Spain Spain • by erichbasilic

Rules concerning Contracts category:

Each forum discussion in this category represents a contract agreed to by 2 or more Erepublik entities
The contracts can be signed only by Citizens representing themselves or, if it is the case, representing the Party, Company, Country, Region or Newspaper that they lead
A contract is not valid if its terms break the Erepublik rules
A contract is considered valid if the Citizens that agreed to its terms post the phrase: "I agree to the Contract terms"
A contract must include at least this information:
the entities that agreed to the contract and, if the entity is not a Citizen, the Citizen that represents that entity
the time validity
the terms agreed upon
penalties agreed to in case the contract is broken by one of the entities
what actions should be taken by the admin in case the contract is broken by one of the entities
A contract ends if:
it reaches its time limit
one of the entities breaks the contract without the consent of the other(s)
all entities that signed the contract will post in the same discussion the phrase: "I want to close this contract"
If one of the entities that signed the agreement considers that the other one broke the contract rules, the Citizen that represent that entity can ask for a trial.
The cost of a trial is 5 gold and should be paid by the entity that asks for the trial.

To ask for a trial a Citizen must post in the contract discussion the phrase: "I want to start a Trial against "$entity". Where "$entity" will be replaced with the name of the entity that is accused of contract breaching.

A Judge must analyze the request and announce a conclusion. If the conclusion says that the entity that started the trial was right, the Trial cost will be paid by the accused party to the pursuer.

The Judge will be represented by the Admin.

ANY CONTRACT THAT REQUIRES ADMIN INVOLVEMENT MUST BE SIGNED BY ADMIN SO THAT THE CONTRACT IS VALID.
