An Independency.
Oh, the new archives.
Yeah, Regional Laws were getting too much for the one nation, so the 
Romanian Palace of the Parliament will store them for now.
I'll also be updating the Codex linked in the regional description from time to time, although that takes a bit of time, so it might be a bit out of date, depending on when one looks.
Dude.....I will dedicate more time to regional law
Regarding this question really quick, it depends on what you mean by "proper judicial process."
For example, Ω8.2. of the Constitution says
So that's a right of all nations who are under RFR jurisdiction (and happen to be a party in some case), to (1) timely, orderly trial; and (2) judgements and verdicts that (i) actually address the case and (ii) can be well understood.
But then, for example, Ω2.12. and Ω2.15. reserve some rights for Free States:
A Free State possesses the right to fair, free, transparent court proceedings, in cases civil and criminal.
... seek skilled representation.
... enlist the aid of a public defender in criminal cases.
... Royal Appeal to the crown sovereign when a magistrate has shown irresponsible, incompetent, or malicious disregard for the privileges, rights, facts, laws, and/or justice of the case.
... immunity from being charged with and from being punished for a crime ex post facto.
... immunity from being charged with and from being punished for the same crime more than once.
... the presumption of innocence until proven guilty by the considerate, proper, and just judicial procedure...
And Ω8.5. further states:
These are the only two explicitly protected statuses when it comes to legal rights.
Regarding original jurisdiction, Ω15.5.a. specified that,
an amendment which was in part your idea, if you'll recall!
And as concerns Residents, Ω8.3. specifies only that the Lord Proconsul is required to personally hear cases and appeals involving:
High Crimes against the Republic
crimes done upon foreign dignitaries by resident nations
infractions by resident nations of treaties to which the Republic is party
crimes committed by foreign dignitaries within the region
infractions of Supreme Acts, including this Constitution
crimes which as their lawful penalty include the stripping of Knightly Honors
The only categories which privilege residents include those which are either violations of some kind of supreme law, or those which involve treaty violations or foreign dignitaries.
That being said, Beastopia can have whatever kind of protections of rights for its citizens that it wants! I don't think it is a problem if the Beastopian Constitution gives even more expansive civil rights to its inhabitants. It would just have to recognize that Beastopian law doesn't protect its nations in the RFR, whereas Republican law would necessarily protect its nations in Beastopia.
Shame what's happened in The New Empire of Bunicken. As a region, they were one of the first polities to extend the fledgling RFR the honor of mutual embassies, in their former iteration and under the Kaiserin Lady shira bell.
In honor of their grand history and generosity to our region, I invite any former natives of that region to seek sanctuary here if they so desire. We shall be happy to host you in good faith for as long as it takes.
Were they invaded? I can't tell or if they voluntary turned their region into a frontier.
I'm worried Comedy Central is gonna censor me for implying I am not a Democrat......I used Kevin McCarthy's election as an example as to why "consensus" may not work (because it took them 12 times or whatever to elect him). If that professor doesnt like me I may fail.....
(I am not done with the Beastopian constitution)
I am sure they won't. The professor will probably value the insight; students making connections to real world events is good behavior and something they want to reward. Just as long as you don't, like, take one side or the other, or get very strident and shrill about it, a good professor will give you good marks for that, I'm quite sure.

I don't know. It might be. I would assume not, unless he actually pulls you aside and says so. Like, always err on the side of "the professor is not sending me codes messages;" even if they are, you can always act clueless and pretend not to notice. What harm can that do? If someone wants you to do something, they should say it explicitly, right? Just think of that principle, and play everything straight as an arrow.
I am super worried my group members wont work with me for the upcoming assignment in that class....they all got good grades on their exams.

Greetings, Royal Federal Republic of Free States
On behalf of the Imperial Sanctuary, the Department of Foreign Relations welcomes the establishment of diplomatic relations.
We hope that a strong friendship and cooperation can be developed between our regions. For your information, Sebastian Roth, 
Cantan-Cronos, has been appointed as High Commissioner to your region.
Yours sincerely,
Emanuel Marks
Director of Foreign Relations of the Imperial Sanctuary
Histarctica
The Sovereign and I are proud to have you as our friend.
Dominus Vobiscum,
Viceroy Beastland of the RFRFS
Before I am dismissed from my position, I'd like to reccomend the Union of Conservative Republics be our first great ally.
Our pontiff is causing quite the stir in Right to Life.
It started with posting an Iroquois prayer and defending it with the idea that beauty and God are in the eye of the beholder, which then developed into saying someone skipping mass to contemplate God by a lake is not sinful. Of course he's not really directly engaging in debate or discussion, just stating/implying things and leaving them there. Considering my nation's motto I consider this a matter of utmost importance: marmots munch and contemplate higher things, but we don't see this as a replacement for the sacraments.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
