Edgar Gerlach (born September 6th, 1968) is the 2nd Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Makko Oko. He is described as being quite conservative and institutionalist, with no verified ties to the state religion. Edgar was born during a time of innovation and as a child worked with their parents at the mines. His education was lackluster until 1983 when he married Alicia at the age of 15, where he would then leave home and his job to study engineering and construction. In 1988, he would go back into the mines in Yorhun and discover the tribe's first deposit of platinum. With the discovery he became an instant millionaire and opened up his own mining company in 1990, referred to as Gerlach's. It would then thereafter become the premium jeweler in the nation.
In 2019, after the war concluded, Edgar was invited by Emperor Solis to become a justice on the reformed Supreme Court after his actions for the CNF during the war. He would then go on to become the Chief Justice when Erma Barrows was kidnapped and then pronounced dead in 2023. Edgar is notable for being one of the few Supreme Court justices to have no prior legal experience.
Early life and education
Edgar was born on September 6th, 1968 to parents Gerard and Monica Gerlach. Gerard was a miner whilst Monica handled home chores and the occasional delivery between tribes. As soon as Edgar was able, he was put to work at the mines with his dad, not being paid a penny for it. He would receive very little education besides what his mother would teach him. He has a younger brother, Sidney, born when he was ten, who was treated considerably better. Edgar would get married in 1983 and immediately move out thereafter to learn, on the advice of his wife, Alicia. He went to a special building that taught engineering because he thought he was good at it, then he would take on construction and learn them together, the first concept of majors and minors for education.
Career
Appointment to Supreme Court
In 2018 before the war broke out, Edgar could not afford to pay salaries and had become destitute. Nobody could afford to pay for jewels anymore. This led to him joining the war against the Republic, with him fighting for financial security, the same thing the CNF fought for. He, however, would form a separate group named the PLF, or People's Liberation Front, which amassed almost as much members as the CNF. By March 2019, the PLF had slightly surpassed the CNF and Edgar was the chief. Edgar was a diplomat, not wanting bloodshed as much as a voice. By May, however, the CNF and PLF had agreed to merge forces as "the war was dragging on longer than anybody anticipated".
Ultimately when the CNF would declare victory, the new Emperor Conall Solis would approach Edgar about becoming a Supreme Court justice, despite the lack of legal experience. After some persuasion, he retired as CEO of Gerlach's and became a Supreme Court justice fulltime.
