[Haengemie] <standard pre-trial court briefing>
[Pulley] I was approached earlier in town by Gurgi
[Pulley] I assume he wanted to make amends from an earlier dispute over him having left me chewed by rats
[Pulley] he invited me to Dal"noth on the condition that I spirit linked with him at all times
[Haengemie] 10 seconds remaining, Please finish up, or say "done"...
[Pulley] I assume he can get good experience from this proceedure
[Pulley] to be continues
[Pulley] done
[Haengemie] Thank you, Pulley
[Haengemie] Gurgi, you have 90 seconds to speak, unless the jury deems your testimony irrelevant.
[Gurgi] this is the second time today this guy has harrased me by sueing me on some trumped up charge
[Gurgi] I have no idea what he is talking about
[Gurgi] and i dont see what his point is
[Gurgi] he is accusing me of breaking an agreement that never existed first of all
[Gurgi] he ws not with me in dal noth
[Gurgi] and i never talked to him
[Haengemie] 10 seconds remaining, Please finish up, or say "done"...
[Gurgi] done
[Haengemie] Thank you, Gurgi
[Haengemie] Pulley, you have 120 seconds to speak, unless the jury deems your testimony irrelevant.

[Haengemie] Gurgi, you have 120 seconds to speak, unless the jury deems your testimony irrelevant.
[Gurgi] The burden of proof of an agreement is on the accuser
[Gurgi] He shows no proof of agreement or that anything he says happened
[Gurgi] many people were with me on noth but he was not
[Gurgi] since both my witnesses that are here are in the jury i will have to let them speak in deliberation
[Gurgi] since i cant call witnesses out of the jury

[Gurgi] regardless though, he has shown no evidence that anything he claims is true
[Gurgi] for it is not

[Haengemie] <standard jury verdict briefing>
[Bellafae] Bellafae hands Haengemie the jury's verdict.

[Haengemie] Pulley this court has found your case frivolous.
[Haengemie] <standard jury sentence briefing>
[Haengemie] Jury, please note: one prior conviction in the past year.
[Haengemie] And, because I find the friviolity of this case to be contemptuous,...
[Haengemie] I'm going to double the maximum penalty (240 min/2000 c)
[Haengemie] I suggest that the jury recommend a stiff sentence.
[Haengemie] Jurors, you should take Pulley's record into account when deciding what sentence to recommend.
[Bellafae] Bellafae hands Haengemie the jury's sentencing recommendation.

[Haengemie] Because of outstanding fines still owed from previous convictions...
[Haengemie] I'm going add 32 minutes to the sentence.
[Haengemie] Pulley, you are hereby sentenced to spend 117 minutes in the Puddleby jail,
[Haengemie] and fined 1285 coins.
[Haengemie] As you cannot afford to pay your fine, the clerk calculates the balance (1278c) as additional jail-time of 161 minutes.
[Haengemie] Also, Clera will help you arrange a payment plan.
[Haengemie] In addition, Pulley, I'm going to banish you from the city limits for 10 days.
[Haengemie] After you've served your jail-sentence, I suggest you sneak out of town quietly, and don't let the guards catch you.
[Haengemie] Judge Haengemie bangs his gavel
[Haengemie] This court is adjourned.

Court adjourned at 14:53 on 78 Autumn, 538
