The Holowitz Treaty

A treaty that was created by the Holowitz family several years ago. It is a non-aggression agreement between the different factions that live in and around Thistlewood and means that the different groups cannot harm one another and mostly cannot enter each other's territory. The Holowitz family are protected under the treaty but lawyers and other species from out of town are fair game.

As the interns arrive, the treaty has ensured peace and quiet for five years, but according to Jermaine Foster conflict is starting to return.

Rules of the Treaty
I don't think we know these yet.

History
The treaty already existed nine years ago, though it was not well enforced and there were tensions and arguments about its terms. It started actually being effective about five years ago.
