Article II: Procedure for Expulsion

Any Government Official may recommend to the Chancellor that a Citizen be expelled. If the Chancellor wishes to proceed, he shall formally ask the Minister of Internal Affairs to conduct a investigation on the Citizen in question, and submit a case against the Citizen if substantial evidence is found.

Any Citizen who is in risk of being expelled shall have the right to be informed of the charges against them within 24 hours of a case being submitted. Citizens shall have the right to defend themselves against any charges in a full-court hearing.

Once a case is submitted the case will be given to the Supreme Court, following all procedures outlined in the constitution. If the Supreme Court finds the defending Citizen guilty of the charges, the Citizen shall at that time be formally expelled from the Prussian Confederation and his/her Citizenship revoked.
