Schedule

Petitioner has seventy-two hours to file his brief.  It is expected no later than 8:00 PM EST on Monday, February 22nd, 2021.
 
Respondent has an additional seventy-two hours to file his brief.  It is expected no later than 8:00 PM EST on Thursday, February 25, 2021.

Amicus Briefs will be accepted until 8:00PM EST on Friday, February 26, 2021.

Additional time may be granted to either party, and the right of either party to respond to the filed briefs may be granted upon request.

A period of argument (Q&A) will be scheduled after presentation of the briefs in case any member of the Court has any questions for the parties.

[Bacon King]

Does the defendant have no replacement counsel? Does no one wish to represent Lincoln in this case?

It is unethical to compel anyone to remain before the court and make an argument they do not condone, so of course Mr. Truman has been allowed to withdraw. However the very nature of our adversarial legal system requires that both parties be represented effectively by a capable attorney.

I hereby request that the Lincoln government must either appoint new counsel, or else they should clarify explicitly they will not be defending the law.

[Bacon King]

As the Chancellor of Lincoln, and thus the head of government serving at the pleasure of His Excellency, the Governor, I formally request that we withdraw from this case. The Council, under my guidance intends to amend this, to remedy the legal issues that have arisen. I thank the court for their time.

Noted, thank you for the swift reply.

Any interested party who wishes to act as defendant has exactly 24 hours from this moment to petition the court to request status as defendant-intervenor.

After 24 hours have elapsed, if no petition has been approved by the court, the court will thereafter immediately issue a summary judgement based on the the arguments that have already been made before the court.
