I totally agree with Alicia on those particular points.  I was going to put
out a request for sponsors today on a mail ballot to delegates but would
like to see how this can be done this way if it has more support.  I would
like to be included in the discussion.

        Joe, I have some language in my head for how to tiptoe through

        cosponsors?
        The LNC can delegate powers that it has, but we can't delegate
     powers
        it doesn't have.  We can delegate to a Not-A-Judicial-Committee
        Committee the power to overturn LNC decisions.  We can't give
     that
        committee the power to overturn something the 2020 convention
     might do,
        though a properly elected JC would be able to do that.
        Also, I wouldn't make this a fixture in the policy manual, as it
     is
        likely only going to be needed for this one term, thus a special
        committee would be more appropriate.

          Committee is empowered to hear appeals over items specified in
