Propose a change

Title 1 Civil Procedure

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.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

1-12-105. Right of witness to demand fees; failure to pay; payments noted.

After the case is called for trial and before a witness is sworn, he may demand his traveling fees and fees for one (1) day's attendance. If the fees are not paid he is not obliged to testify. At the commencement of the trial each day after the first day he may demand his fees for that day's attendance and if the fees are not paid he shall not be compelled to remain. The clerk shall note the payment of fees in the witness book.

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.
