Yes there is. It is very far beyond a reasonable process. Simple, clear, written rules and policies suffice for discipline. The Sudbury “process” unnecessarily enables arbitrary, subjective control based on tyranny of a majority a.k.a. ganging up. Banning from class for a week because person A didn’t like something person B did and got a few people to agree. Extra-judicial and arbitrary. The so-called supreme court style discussions are the giveaway that novices have strayed out of bounds. Recall, democracy is not a good thing as our Founding Fathers understood. I’m so happy my kids didn’t attend a horror show like that.
