Background
The offense itself covered by this Act already existed in common law and thus did not have to be defined. However, the penalties itself for such offense had to be statutorily defined through this Act, when the Parliament of Palmshire once had authority to legislate for the Blizzard world before the world-wide jurisdiction over Blizzard world was ceded in its entirety to the Commonwealth. While the status of this Act is unclear in the Commonwealth, which presumably have inherited this law through the doctrine of reception statute upon assumption of the world-wide jurisdiction over Blizzard world from the Parliament, it remains in force throughout the Palmshire territories.
