Each of these removal methods attempts to utilize those who would best understand the situation or have the most Standing be the effectors of the removal.

Path 1: Office Fitness

Should a potential Executive Group member's office fitness become a question of mental or physical ability, or an Executive Group member has not been available for a Decision Vote for 15 days due to an unexpected unavailability, then the following process is used to remove that member:

1. The remaining four Executive Group members must be in unanimous agreement and Record their vote for this removal.
2. The Enforcement Agency of the Justice Branch will have five days to investigate the situation, referring to the expertise of other Branches or Departments if needed, to first insure this is the appropriate Removal Path. The documentation of this investigation will be deposited into an Informed Vote Archive for review by the the participants in a Global Justice Branch Vote.
3. The Global Justice Branch Vote will be held within five days following the deposit into the Informed Vote Archive to determine the appropriateness of the removal of the Executive Group member using this Removal Path.
4. With a successful Global Justice Branch Vote, the findings of the investigation will then be made available to the Branch Officials of all Intrinsic and Lateral Branches via an Informed Vote Archive.
5. The Branch Officials of every Intrinsic and Lateral Branch will have five days to review the information and then vote using the Aggregate Vote method.
6. A simple majority among the Branches will results in the removal of the Executive Group member.
   1. A tie does not count as a majority.
   2. If there is a failed vote there cannot be another vote on this matter unless there is a substantive change in condition, which the Enforcement Agency of the Justice Branch will be charged with that determination.

Path 2: Negligence, criminal activity, abuse of position, etc.

1. Anyone with knowledge of the abuse of office may refer the matter to the Enforcement Agency of the Justice Branch, including personnel within the Justice Branch.
2. The Enforcement Agency of the Justice Branch will investigate the situation in an independent and neutral manner, interviewing the indicted Executive Member(s) and gathering their defense and supporting documentation. The investigators may also refer to the expertise of other Branches or Departments if needed. The documentation of this investigation will be deposited into an Informed Vote Archive for review by the Branch Officials of the Justice Branch.
3. The Branch Officials of the Justice Branch will have a vote within 10 days following the deposit of the investigation materials into the Informed Vote Archive to determine if there is a legal basis for the removal. A majority vote in favor will prompt the contents of the investigation in the Informed Vote Archive to become available for all participants of a Global Justice Branch Vote.
4. The Global Justice Branch Vote to decide the fate of the Executive Group member(s) will be held no later than 30 days from the majority vote by the Branch Officials of the Justice Branch, and will be based on the investigation materials.
5. If there is more than one Executive Group member indicted, then each will be individually evaluated and voted upon. A majority vote in favor of removal will result in the immediate loss of seat for that Executive Group member.

Path 3: No-Confidence Vote

It is entirely up the the Eligible Voters to judge the effectiveness of the Executive Group's performance, and they have that opportunity with the General Election every four years.
