===Former members===
The terms "Senior" and "Puisne" (earlier, "Associate") were only introduced later. Weston Erni was the first to bear the title of Senior Justice, and also the first Justice that was appointed to replace one of the three original members.
Some nominations were rejected by the Ziu:
* Former Seneschal [[Robert Murphy]] in 1989, to succeed Justice Lauriéir, defeated 38-133 after Murphy announced Peculiarist ideas in stark contrast with the then-PC majority; Lauriéir was found to have never legally resigned, and went on to retire the following year.
* Former Seneschal Sir [[Samuhel Tecladeir]] in 2009, to the vacant seat held by retiring Senior Justice Ian von Metáiriâ; eventually, Fritz von Buchholtz was confirmed a few months later.
Justices who have served as Senior Justice are marked in '''bold'''.

The terms "Senior" and "Puisne" (earlier, "Associate") were only introuced later. Weston Erni was the first to bear the title of Senior Justice.
====Temporary Justices====
During the 1988 case Lauriéir v. Talossa, both Justices Lauriéir and Madison were parties to the case, and therefore [[Robert Murphy]] and [[Tom Buffone]] were chosen as replacements. Buffone would eventually go on to join the Court in his own right in 1997; Murphy, tapped by Lauriéir to replace him on the Court in 1989, was voted down by the Cosa.


The only nomination (as far as sources go) to be rejected by the Ziu was that of former Seneschal Sir [[Samuhel Tecladeir]] in 2009, to the seat held by retiring Senior Justice Ian von Metairia. Eventually, Fritz von Buchholtz was confirmed a few months later.
This happened again during a case over the 21 January 1989 Living Cosa: Justices Lauriéir (again the plaintiff) and Madison recused and were replaced for the duration of the case by [[Art Verbotten]] and Buffone. Verbotten would too be later appointed as a full Justice, serving between 1993-1997 and 1999-2004.
 
===Justices ''Emeritus''===
The following are Justices ''Emeritus'' of the Uppermost Court - former Justices who are still Talossan citizens. The title has no legal meaning but is sometimes used in signatures and literature.
* Former Puisne Justice Txec Róibeard dal Nordselvă, O.SPM., SMM.;

* Former Senior Justice Sir Cresti M. Siervicül;
* Former Senior Justice Sir Tamorán dal Navâ;

  The Cort Pü Inalt ([koɾt py ɨnˈaɬt] ( )), or Uppermost Court, is the chief judicial body in Talossa, responsible for interpreting the laws of the Ziu or Prime Dictates of the Seneschal, in light of the Organic Law and the principles of the nation. It is the court of last resort for all judicial verdicts. It consists of five justices, nominated by the Ziu and confirmed by the King. Justices serve at the pleasure of the Ziu, and may be recalled or replaced by an act of that body. The Uppermost Court underwent significant changes during the 47th Cosa which included increasing the court size to five justices.

When hearing arguments or rendering decisions, the Organic Law requires that the justices of the Cort Pü Inalt wear official judicial wigs. Precedent has been established such that draping a paper napkin over the judicial pate is sufficient to satisfy this Organic requirement.

An inferior court, the Magistracy, was instituted by the Ziu to supplement the Cort Pü Inalt's ability to manage their burden. The Clerk of Courts is an appointed position that receives cases and presents them to the Cort Pü Inalt.

Current Composition

Justice Position Appointed on Replacing
Dame Litz Cjantscheir, UrN Senior Justice 1 Mar 2014/XXXV (46RZ03) Asmourescu
Owen Edwards Puisne Justice 22 Apr 2015/XXXVI (47RZ40) new seat[1]
Viteu Marcianüs Puisne Justice 29 Feb 2020/XLI (54RZ11) Ardpresteir
Two vacant seats

Former members

The terms "Senior" and "Puisne" (earlier, "Associate") were only introduced later. Weston Erni was the first to bear the title of Senior Justice, and also the first Justice that was appointed to replace one of the three original members.

Some nominations were rejected by the Ziu:

  • Former Seneschal Robert Murphy in 1989, to succeed Justice Lauriéir, defeated 38-133 after Murphy announced Peculiarist ideas in stark contrast with the then-PC majority; Lauriéir was found to have never legally resigned, and went on to retire the following year.
  • Former Seneschal Sir Samuhel Tecladeir in 2009, to the vacant seat held by retiring Senior Justice Ian von Metáiriâ; eventually, Fritz von Buchholtz was confirmed a few months later.

Justices who have served as Senior Justice are marked in bold.

Temporary Justices

During the 1988 case Lauriéir v. Talossa, both Justices Lauriéir and Madison were parties to the case, and therefore Robert Murphy and Tom Buffone were chosen as replacements. Buffone would eventually go on to join the Court in his own right in 1997; Murphy, tapped by Lauriéir to replace him on the Court in 1989, was voted down by the Cosa.

This happened again during a case over the 21 January 1989 Living Cosa: Justices Lauriéir (again the plaintiff) and Madison recused and were replaced for the duration of the case by Art Verbotten and Buffone. Verbotten would too be later appointed as a full Justice, serving between 1993-1997 and 1999-2004.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 One of the three preexisting seats was vacant due to dal Navâ's retirement.
  2. 2.0 2.1 2.2 2.3 The order of the new Justices taking office in the 2012 reshuffle, and who they replaced, was determined by 43RZ30, which appointed, in this precise order, Sir Tamorán dal Nava, Timoþi Asmourescu and Ián Tamorán to the first vacancies available. Having Justice von Buchholtz retired first, dal Nava succeeded him and was made Senior Justice; Justices Siervicül and Castiglha were removed by legislation in the same Clark later that month, so the lower numbered removal bill (Siervicül's) was determined to have vacated the next seat for Asmourescu, and the last vacated seat (Castiglha's) was therefore occupied by Tamoran.
