Add constraints on ancestral and organizational arms
<ol type="I">
<li>The petition, payment, and any supporting materials are received at Headquarters. [[Headquarters Staff]] will confirm receipt of payment and that there are no obvious defects in the petition. [1] They will confirm the recognition of, or refer for confirmation, any claimed titles or postnominals. [2] They will then forward all to the [[Justiciar General]].  <ol type="A"> <li>Petions for the arms of an ancestor are restricted to one generation farther back than the eldest living ancestor (including cases where that is the petitioner).</li>  <li>Petitions for the arms of an ancestor more than one generation removed from his eldest living relative may be considered by the Justiciar General on a case-by-case basis.</li>  <li>Petitions for the arms of an organization must come from a petitioner authorized by the organization. Headquarters Staff will make a preliminary determination if appropriate authorization is present; appleals may be made to the Justiciar General.</li> </ol></li>
<li>The Justiciar General will examine the documents for completeness and consistency. He will resolve conflicts between multiple blazons and illustrations, and with the assistance of specific [[Vice-Justiciars]] or outside consultants, will obtain any needed translations, and creates a definitive English blazon from which an [[Heraldic Artists|Heraldic Artist]] might work. [3] The Justiciar General will forward any amended files to the Arms Chancellor for recording. [4]</li>
