Succession

Structural Continuity Across Generational Time

Succession defines the structured continuation of Custodial Authority within the Institution without interruption of jurisdiction, territorial integrity, or Charter supremacy.

The Institution is constituted to persist beyond individual tenure.

Authority is continuous where Charter remains in force.

Principle of Continuity

The Institutional Seat is not contingent upon the presence of any single person, office, or generation.

Change in leadership, stewardship, or administrative structure does not dissolve institutional jurisdiction nor alter the constitutive conditions fixed under Charter.

  • Succession preserves structure.
    It does not recreate it.
  • Custodial Transfer

    Custodial Authority transfers within the principal offices of the Institution in accordance with the Succession Protocol fixed under Charter.

    Such transfer does not alter:

  • • The status of the Institutional Seat
    • The classification of Core and Peripheral Land
    • The discipline governing architecture
    • The supremacy of Charter
  • Authority passes.
    Structure remains.

    Institutional Insulation

    Land constituted as Institutional Seat remains insulated from:

  • • Personal estate fragmentation
    • Inheritance division
    • External encumbrance
    • Episodic ownership transfer
  • Where land is bound under Charter, it remains governed ground.

    Generational Stewardship

    Stewardship is exercised in continuity under pre-existing chartered conditions.

  • No succession event alters the authority or territorial integrity fixed under Charter.
  • Constitutional Condition

    Succession operates within applicable civil law while preserving the internal structural conditions established by Charter.

  • Where civil succession intersects with institutional structure, Charter governs the status of land and authority within institutional jurisdiction.
  • Closing Clause

    Institutional order is not dependent upon individual tenure.

    Where Charter governs land, continuity is secured beyond persons.
