Let us begin the case of the region of 00000 A World Power versus the Republic of Govindia, regarding the banning of the latter. The case start off with opening statement from the prosecution, Regional Attorney AmericaXLI, and the defense, American Vampires. Afterward, the prosecution will give a responding statement to the defense's remarks, and then the defense will make an argument against what the prosecution has to say. Finally, I will council with the other judges, Biain the First and Fatalem, to gain advice on how I should make the final ruling. Any posts made out of sequence without further notice will be deleted. Both parties have permission to call forth witnesses as long as the court is informed of such. |

AV you have to realize I do have a life outside this game, such as school, friends, homework exc, I ask some patience. Anyway. . . Govindia has not just been annoying in some cases, but sometimes he has been downright abusive to certain situations. Your honor, at this time I'd like to present some evidence to the court. |

Objection, Your Honor, actually I have two. As far as I know, in legal procedure, all discussion is to be directed to the Bench. Also I ask the court what laws any so called evidence are being shown to have been broke? |

Until we hear from the prosecution. It would be appreciated if the counselor of the defense would stop impatiently persisting that we omit the prosecution's arguments. |

This evidence I am about present is the transcript of a PM sent between Greekamerican and Govindia, It is a clear example of Gov taking things way to far. You may be ask, "what laws did he break?" Well the AWP senate has not passed one law on forum etiquette, but does this mean we can just act however we want? No it does not! Almost everyone on this forum has been constantly nagged bu Gov, and when you tell him to stop, he should stop, but Govindia does not like to listen, and that is why he has been banned from many other regions.

Now the defense may give their responding statements. But I have a question for the prosecution. Do you believe it is acceptable to censor or even severely punish a citizen just because he annoys some people? |

The Defense has no statement. My client has broken no laws, and therefore any ruling against him would be the actual crime. |

After the prosecution answers the question then you both have the option to make a closing statement. |

What we don't realize is Gov has gone farther than just annoying people, he has harassed people, as you see, that is just one of many times he has harassed people. When you tell someone to stop, PMing, IMing, or trying to talk to you, you should stop, Govindia has went far passed that fine line. |

The Defense will gladly wait for the Prosecution to make their closing statement first. |

I'm so glad the defense gave me the chance to go first, a very strategic thing to do because you can respond to whatever I say. Any way, the defense's only response to everything is what laws did my client break, but AWP has not passed any laws clearly defining what is criminal and what is not, so how I see it, that response holds no water. Govinidia has harassed people and has not stopped, many people have even resorted to blocking him on YIM/MSN. Govinida has a history of this, being banned from several regions and the FRA. This goes to show that it is more than just 'annoying people'. The people of our region have also voted to Ban him 13-4 (http://z3.invisionfree.com/A_World_Power/index.php?showtopic=4971) and the senate (http://z3.invisionfree.com/A_World_Power/index.php?showtopic=5177). But because of political red tape this didn't happen. So If a large majority of the citizens of AWP feel he should be banned, why should we stop it? Why go against what the citizens say? |

Your Honor, I will now present my closing statement. First, the Prosecution is basing their case on something they refer to as "harassment" although they have never said exactly what "harassment" is. Also, what happens in other regions has no barring on a citizen here, as has been proven in this region time and time again. In closing, I wish to give a few definitions. 1. Court= this thing that we are in= lawcourt 2. lawcourt= a. a tribunal that is presided over by a magistrate or by one or more judges who administer justice according to the laws or b. a court of law Your Honor, we are in a Court of Law, and you are a protector of the LAW. If the prosecution wishes to ban someone from this region, then actual laws must first be created by the Government of AWP. Without LAW and the backing of LAW to prosecute, a person CAN NOT be banned from this, or any other region, simply because that person does not get along with some of the people of the region. LAW MUST PREVAIL. Thank you. |

As both parties have given their closing remarks, this thread will be locked and now I will council with the other judges and then will determine the verdict. If you believe there is a reason that this thread should be reopened, then please PM me. |

In a unanimous decision of the present judges, as well as one that reflects the evident interest of both the majority of the people and the senate, the court hereby finds the defendant guilty. Govindia will therefore be banned from the forum and the region of 00000 A World Power. If he wishes to keep his status in the Regional Defense Force, however, he can make a plea to Neasmyrna. This court is adjourned. |
