Propose a change

Title 5 Courts

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

What to do with it
As published

5-6-109. Postponement of trial for violation of city ordinance; recognizance generally.

If a person charged with a violation of a city ordinance is held to appear for examination or trial before a municipal judge, the judge may postpone the trial of the case to a certain day. The judge may require the defendant to enter into a recognizance with sufficient sureties conditioned that he will appear before the judge at the time and place appointed to answer the complaint alleged against him.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
