Dear Justices

By the powers vested on me by President SevenEleven on Executive Order 53-002, I hereby charge citizen Louisville Thunder with the crime of Doxxing; under the provisions laid upon by the latest revision of the criminal code of Atlasia; as defined by the Real Life Protections Criminal Code Reform Act.

For your convenience and the convenience of the public, here is the definition of the charge being filed

Quote
(n) Doxxing. This offense shall be defined as the disclosal of the personal information of any user of the Atlas Forum either obtained illegally or posted against their will by a citizen of Atlasia.

Similarly, for your convenience and the convenience of the public, here is a rundown of the rules regarding criminal prosecutions in Atlasia, as defined by Sections 4-6 of the Criminal Justice Act of 2016

Spoiler alert! Click Show to show the content.



The Constitution of Atlasia also governs criminal trials as defined in Article I, Section 10

Quote from: Article I, Section 10 of the Constitution of Atlasia
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall have right to a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury of their peers in the Region wherein the crime shall have been committed, to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation, to be confronted with the witnesses against him, to have a compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel in his defense.

Pursuant to the above, I thus request that the Supreme Court promptly assign a Justice to preside over this trial, empanel a jury of the defendant’s peers as legally required, and to propose a manner I may submit evidence and call witnesses so that the presiding Justice may determine its admissibility.

I have informed the defendant of the charges against him and of his right to legal counsel.

I thank the Court for its time and hope for an efficient and transparent trial.

And for the record I will definitely pick an attorney for him if I have no return from him before the deadline.
Anyone interested can contact me.

Thank you Louisville.
I will be waiting for you finding an attorney before selecting the jury.

In the end, I couldn't wait for selecting the jury Tongue.

Once Louisville has chosen his attorney I will reveal it so the accusation and the defense will have their say regarding the composition.

Louisville,
You have until sunday to announce your lawyer. Otherwise I will pick one for you and you will be free to dismiss him or not.

I will let both the accusation and the defense react to this.

As I have provided some legal advice to the defendant in private, being on the jury would be a conflict of interest.

Plus I am struggling to find a way to swing managing the elections with inventory at work (and the increased schedules leading up to it), my first semester in 9 years starting Monday and struggling with a combination of fatigue and other health issues.

There is just no practical way for me to be able to handle being on the jury, (if I had the time for that, I would have been LT's lawyer) even if the above issue didn't exist.

So what's happening with this case these days? If Tack is not going to provide his reasoning then the court should deny the objection and move forward, yes? The court should expeditiously replace the withdrawn NC Yankee and start taking testimony.

After waiting for many days and with no reply, Tack's motion to remove TeaPartyHater and WestMildlander is rejected.

Except Yankee, all the jurors will be contacted.


FuzzyBear has been selected. I let 48 hours for the defense and the accusation to object.

Sorry for the delays. I am starting to find that this case might exceed my capabilities and honestly I've lost a bit of the energy. I am considering resigning as lawyer for this case even; but I worry a bit about the logistics of it all (and of course we'd need a replacement)

Given that the attorney for the accusation has basically given up by his own admission, the court case is dismissed.

Yes, but Sev will have to appoint a new prosecutor who will open a new case.
