* The C.E.O's decisions over-ride the Vice C.E.O's decisions in matters of conflicting C.E.O decisions, just like a Director and Vice Director.
* There may only be one person in this role.
* When the C.E.O is unavailable, for all legal purposes or decision making, the Vice-C.E.O is the acting C.E.O and is vested with C.E.O authority. Similarly, the Vice-C.E.O inherits the same limits that the C.E.O does, such as not being able to take certain roles.
* To be considered for or actively be in this role, you must simultaneously be a Director.
* May only assign Directors to a case when there’s no Judges available.

* The C.E.O may not declare executive law for 7 days after it has be ended by any means.
* During executive law the (Vice) C.E.O’s word is literally the law - this overrides Shell Law and Director's orders. Only Council Board decisions remain above the executive.
* The only thing that the (Vice) C.E.O is barred from doing during executive law is using his powers to inhibit Directors from trying to conduct a Council Board meeting.
* Pardoned individuals are immediately innocent but the paperwork must be filed on the same day as the pardon.
* All diplomatic proposals from PR Director must be approved by the C.E.O or (Vice) C.E.O to go into effect.
* Freelancers act as if the (Vice) C.E.O is their direct Director but if an aspect of their business or property relates to a Shell department, that is still under that specific Director’s authority.
* Freelancers are not a department and do not receive the usual benefits of a department.
* May be fired by the C.E.O.
* This is not in a department and is a federal role so it is paid from federal taxes. The wage being set by the C.E.O.
