After Robin steps away from Incarius mention only moments before.He stands and in a clear voice states. " With that my friends I have the wording of law 6 so a moment of your time, please.
The Laws of Haven proper are set forth as follows:

Until laws are ratified and prepared for signing by council all residents fall under the protection and enforcement of said laws. Unless they specifically refuse in writing to the constable prior to any infractions of said laws.
Any and all internal guild matters shall be dealt with by the guild head in question unless either party so desires constable and/or magistrate interference. The guild heads are required to provide the constable with any changes to their guilds roster immediately. Failure to do so will incur a fine per occurrence.
Any citizen may request temporary release of citizenry in order to settle differences. All parties concerned must be in agreement of the release and must seek approval of the constable for the release prior to any action initiated to settle differences. The guard must preside over such matters and will require a payment pending on the circumstances at hand.
All visitors are considered citizenry under the protection of the laws. Visitor citizenship may be revoked without cause by the magistrate with the consent of the constable.
Citizenry of residents may be revoked with cause by council majority. Residency is established after two months of residing within Haven town proper.
All matters seen by the magistrate shall require a per person fee paid by the loser of argument or guilty party. This fee may be waved by extenuating circumstances.

Law 6
It is the right of any citizen to request an investigation by the Constable on a matter upon which they wish to bring up charges. The Constable will then conduct his investigation. If he finds grounds or just cause for a full scale trial, then he will refer the matter to the Magistrate with all his findings. If he does not find cause or crime according to the law, then the case is dismissed and the investigation concluded.
Not all investigations will lead to trials.
Not all charges are true crimes according to the laws.
No person may be called under investigation for the same crime more than once.
Once the Constable and Magistrate have ruled, their decision is legal and binding."
"Thank you" with that he sets back down by the fire and continues to enjoy the evening bt appearence sake alone.
