Digital Legal Rights Framework

The Digital Legal Rights Framework encourages each digital polity to adhere to a common understanding of an ideal implementation of the rights laid out by cyber-sovereigntists. 

Individual rights

Common defense

Principle

When it comes to defense against a government or polity, what a common group of people in that polity understand a Charter law to mean is the law. Namely, laws which regard the rights of individuals should be up to final interpretation by the common public. 

Reason

Too many times, the rights of people have been undermined by interpretations by judges which no reasonable person would derive from the text.

Provision

Therefore, in a party's defense against their own government or polity, where charter rights are seen as relevant by either party, a right to common understanding may be invoked.

• Namely, the appeal to the common understanding of a law, being derived by simple survey, provided the party pay a reasonable fee for the execution of the survey, having a choice of venues. Every attempt should be made to ensure the survey is fair in finding a typical group of citizens willing to interpret the law.
• No precedence: No precedence may be set by former surveys. 

Diverse defense

Principle

The defense of a individual against their government or polity may be on the grounds of the rights of the individual or public interest.

Reason

As much power as possible should lie with the jury, and it's often too limited in its power.

Provision

Therefore, in a party's defense a jury may always invoke public interest, or the rights of the individual, having sole authority to decide if a matter of rights or public interest is at hand. Moreover, these matters may be judged purely by a vote of majority, and not by unanimity.
