Change "Notes and/or Ribbons" to "assets" and there should be no conflict with Cards. What if a judge gives a bad judgement, gains a ribbon, gives a good judgement in another case, then has the bad judgement appealed and reassigned? The judge is effectively denied the ribbon e could/should have gotten from the good judgement. Perhaps notes and ribbons should only be given when a judgement becomes unappealable.
