The Marauder Court

(as recorded by Peter Pettigrew, Mr. Wormtail)

Rules

2. The meetings shall be held as a court of law, where all suggestions must be forwarded as actions and approved by a three-out-of-four majority.
3. Mr. Prongs shall judge, and if any members feel he is not capable of judging, they may put forth a motion that must be approved by the other three Marauders before Mr. Prongs is relieved of his duty.
4. If there are any dissentions among Marauders, they must be taken up in official meeting and mediated by Mr. Moony, and judged by Mr. Prongs. If Mr. Moony or Mr. Prongs is incapable of doing their duties, then Miss Lily (at Hogwarts) or Miss Maddy (otherwise) shall be notified and judge.

Clause: The girlfriend must have been in place more than six weeks to be invited to a meeting on account of Mr. Padfoot's weekly flings.

10. The Marauding Pledge must be said at the beginning of each meeting.
11. All things said in each meeting shall be recorded in the offical record book, the Marauder Court.
12. No one may open the record book without the password, otherwise the book shall spout nonsense, insults, and Pig Latin at the offender and emit a loud wailing siren.
13. No secrets of pranks shall ever be revealed.
14. The Marauders must always stand together. No Marauder shall ever serve detention or duel alone.
