And just like a lawsuit, a "dead" terrorist or known associate of crimes cannot be raided, correct?

Why not?
Gathering more evidence is the key to unveiling more potential threats and connections of that so called dead terrorist.
Also preventing those weapons from falling into someone else his/her hands to continue his/her agenda also plays a role.

A location is something you own permamently and not based on your RP char. Even if you're 'dead', it can be still raided although there won't be an arrest warrant on a dead person, I'm guessing.

This is pretty much the correct assumption. Dead people can't have criminal charges brought against them. They could still be raided if, for example, they took part in some large criminal uprising and need to be investigated for ties to organized crime.

The consequences of this bring up an important question though. A dead person cannot be involved in a criminal case due to their roleplay character being dead. So then are dead people also banned from fighting court cases regarding the raiding of their homes, if they died in the scenario that led to the raid?

The way I see it, it would be smarter for criminals to try and stay alive on a raid instead of getting themselves killed because that way they can engage in the court case and try defending their good name, maybe convincing a judge that the evidence isn't enough and that the guns shouldn't be confiscated. On the other hand if a criminal dies during the raid it just strengthens the evidence of the guns being wrongfully used, so he'll have nothing to say in his defense - maybe he won't get same penalties if proven guilty as the alive criminals (such as cash penalties, etc) but they basically forfeit their chance for a successful defense in a court case.

Constitution drafted in the first post applies until further notice.

[PulseEffect]

On discussion with Management and VCPD Officials, weed will become a prohibited item to produce and possess. Furthermore I have added a provision within Section VI allowing the Court to make legal ordinances which are effectively laws issued by the court.

- Section III, Criminal Law: Act II is to be changed to make production and possession of marijuana illegal.

- Section VI, Government and Constitutional Law: Ordinance IV inserted to allow the Court to make laws when needed.

Pulse,
Justice

All the time I thought weed was illegal, just a couple of weeks ago I found out the opposite. Now it's illegal

On RP, shouldn't be weed allowed for medical purposes?
