The UCSB Associated Students Judicial Council serves as the judicial branch of the student government and is empowered to hear and decide any cases under its legal\u00a0jurisdiction as noted\u00a0in Article VII of the AS Constitution. Included in this provision is the responsibility of the Council to adjudicate completely\u00a0and diligently\u00a0questions pertaining to the AS Legal Code, including, but not limited to, the By-Laws and policies of any AS entities including all AS Boards, Committees and Units, KCSB, and all AS Business Services in order to render a just and equitable decision. The Council operates independently with unabridged sovereignty from Student\/Faculty Commission on Student Conduct. Judicial Council acts as the final appellate body to which all appeals are formally directed and justly addressed in a formal professional hearing process of the court\u00a0that begins with following the procedures outlined on the Judicial Council website as well as the updated\u00a0AS Legal Code.<\/p>\n

The Council consists\u00a0of an executive chairman, four members-at-large, and a non-voting staff advisor who guides the Council in make sound decisions. Judicial Council operates very similarly to the U.S. Supreme court, by allowing students to address\u00a0their own concerns whenever necessary by participating in a\u00a0\u00a0professionally systematic court hearing procedure, open forum, and the extensive deliberation\u00a0among the Council members at the end of the hearing to render a justified decision that seeks to adjudicate cases arising from political\u00a0conflicts\u00a0and violations of the Legal Code.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
