Boy, I sure feel funny commenting on a Bills that contain my name within the body....
Anyway, let me suggest a possible legal remedy.
Right now, the problem I see with this Act is that it is, as His Majesty states, a nomination, but not really, for a time in the future, maybe.
Two possible alternatives, as I see it.
The first (and easiest) way is to put the nomination together with the removal. "We remove Justice X and appoint Mr. Y." There can be three separate bills, or one big one that removes all three and appoints another three. I would recommend keeping them separate to allow His Majesty to make his appointments individually.
The second is to include wording in this bill that removes the vague "in the event of a vacancy" and states that the nominee "is nominated to fill a vacancy created on the Uppermost Cort upon the removal of Justice X, Y, Z through separate articles of removal pursuant to OrgLaw XXX"

Hey Tim. In the first case, the vacancies still don't exist at the time of the nomination - the vacancies won't exist until His Majesty approves the removals. Of course, he may be happier at the specificity of the removal/appointment combination than he is with the hair-trigger described here.
As to the second suggestion, that was originally considered but it was thought better not to have "when Justice Siervicul is removed, Admiral Timotgi Asmourescu is appointed", as then the bill relies in each clause on two factors - Siervicul being removed by the King, and Asmourescu being appointed. But again, if the King were to signal approval for this as a solution, I should be happy to revise the Act!
