Can Justly Earned Victory negate Remi's recon ability at a battlefield? Along similar lines, is Remi's ability constantly applying to the battlefield? Thanks.

Can Justly Earned Victory negate Remi's recon ability at a battlefield?

Yes. The bonuses are from an action.

(I)s Remi's ability constantly applying to the battlefield?

You may have to be more specific here. Utaku Remi's effect is an ongoing effect, if that helps. See http://rules.l5r.com/Effects#Duration_of_effects: "Ongoing effects that affect all things of a certain kind (such as, “Battle: Your Samurai have +1F”) by default change the game state, and so affect all things in play of that kind throughout their duration, even ones not in play at the time the effect took place."
