It is illegal for anyone in a courtroom - be it judge, attorney, defendant, or juror - to argue for jury nullification of a law. Why? Because jury nullification was often argued to all-white juries by white attorneys of white defendants who were accused or murdering a non-white person. It was used to allow murderers to walk.

It is legal to find a defendant guilty or not guilty. It is illegal to argue that the law is unjust and should not be enforced.

If you use the modmail form in this post to request an escalation, it helps modsupport admins triage and track the escalations.

99%+ of the escalations I send to modsupport using that modmail format are resolved satisfactorily.

Separately, you may want to look into making a standard ban appeals guide in your wiki pages, and when you ban someone, directing them to the ban appeals guide using standard language (a macro) - it saves having to read and process their follow-on abuse, and reinforces the boundary that the behaviour they were banned for is unacceptable.
