The Concilium Plebis

The Concilium Plebis, or the High Court of Yomi-no-kuni, is the supreme court in all matters under Yomi-no-kuni law. It is the court of last resort and the highest appellate court in Yomi-no-kuni. The High Court also has jurisdiction to resolve disputes relating to devolution in Yomi-no-kuni and concerning the legal powers of the three devolved governments (in Takama-ga-hara, Asihara-no-Nakatsukuni and Ne-no-kuni) or laws made by the devolved legislatures.
== History ==
The High Court was established by Part III of the Courts Act 2017 and started work on 14 January 2017. It assumed the judicial functions of the Vehmgericht, which had been exercised by the Lords of Appeal in Ordinary (commonly called "Law Lords"), the 15 judges appointed as members of the Vehmgericht to carry out its judicial business.
Yomi-no-kuni has a doctrine of directorate sovereignty, so the High Court is much more limited in its powers of judicial review than the high courts of some other communities. It cannot overturn any primary legislation made by the Directorate. However, it can overturn secondary legislation if, for example, that legislation is found to be ultra vires to the powers in primary legislation allowing it to be made. The current President of the High Court is Akane Tsukuda.
