((Apologies for not responding sooner, had some matters come up IRL that took up my time))
Greetings to the Liberty City People's Court,
I'm Kowalski, Attorney of Mr. Ron. I'd like to start with my client's plea. NOT GUILTY.
I'd like to explain that my client had no true malicious intent, and was not attempting to abuse his rights in any way, but was, in fact, attempting to do the exact opposite, to ensure justice was served and that the laws and the constitution were upheld through his job as a policeman.
My client felt there were adequate grounds for a search as the plaintiff was in an area notorious for cultivation and production of cannabis. The plaintiff has alleged that they were awaiting a friend but has failed to provide any conclusive evidence that proves beyond reasonable doubt that said claims are true.
My client was attempting to ensure that there was no illegal drug production happening, and was not in any way abusing his rights. I'd also like to additionally point out to the Courts that Mr. Ron is also a reserve officer of the ARPD, and is not officially bound by their procedures, but the law only. Mr. Ron was frisking the plaintiff on grounds of suspected narcotics production and cultivation, which is a serious offense. My client feels that he had adequate grounds to take the measures that he took and does not regret his actions as they were in the interests of the Liberty State Constitution.
My client did not call for a supervisor because LCPD Sergeant Kawashty Gatsby was already on-scene in a Police Stinger, meaning the supervisor was present and could have intervened should the necessity have arisen, which it clearly didn't. We request the Sergeant to testify against the plaintiff, Badboydhia, regarding his presence on-scene. He was also close enough to clearly hear what was happening and didn't intervene due to no actual abuse.
To address the plaintiff's "summary":
so this amazing officer
- performed a traffic stop on my client for no reason
-forced him and frisked him without any warrant or a reason
-attempted to frisk and search his vehicle without any warrant
-refused to call for a supervisor
Bullet Point 1: My client performed a traffic stop with adequate grounds, suspicion of narcotics production, and possession.
Bullet Point 2: Again, my client felt there were adequate grounds for a search.
Bullet Point 3: My client is a reserve officer of the ARPD and therefore can't request a warrant, it'd be a very complicated process. However, my client once again felt there were adequate grounds for a search.
Bullet Point 4: Why would my client call for a supervisor when the said supervisor, Sergeant Gatsby is already on the scene?
My client is having a hard time understanding whether badboydhia is vision impaired, or if badboydhia is trying to defame his integrity by alleging that my client refused to call a supervisor despite one already being on-scene.
We demand this case be immediately closed, and my client wishes to press the following charges against badboydhia:
Act 5.10
A person spreading false news is guilty of spreading false news.
Act 5.8
A person who endangers the comfort, safety, property or lives of others is guilty of common nuisance.
Act 4.3
A person who willfully attempts to obstruct, pervert or defeat the course of justice is guilty of obstruction to justice.
Act 4.4
A person who gives contradictory or false statements to the government, courts of Liberty City or LEOs is guilty of perjury.
My client demands that badboydhia be charged with spreading false news (propaganda) against my client's character with defaming intent and that he be sentenced to two years (two minutes) in prison.
My client demands that badboydhia is also charged with common nuisance and is sentenced to five years (five minutes) in prison for common nuisance due to endangering the comfort of my client.
My client demands that badboydhia be charged with obstruction of justice and be sentenced to five years imprisonment.
My client demands that badboydhia be finally charged with perjury and be sentenced to five years imprisonment, leading to a grand total amount of time in prison being 17 years (17 minutes).
My client demands reimbursement of $250 for wasted time.
My client demands reimbursement of $250 for defamation of his integrity and accusations against his character creating an image to the public that my client is corrupt.
My client demands a further $250 due to sleep deprivation due to this case.
My client lastly demands another $250 for psychological stress due to this case, leading to a grand total of $1000.
Regards,
Kowalski
Attorney.
I am Sergeant Ray Fearon,
I was there at the scene that's right, i was in HP Duty as i got a call for backup for further situations.
I was observing from a distance through the mirrors and making sure that i am ready for any possible evasion as i am in HP Vehicle, i heared some shouting so i asked the officer through radio if everything is alright, he confirmed that everything is Good.
According to my observation i saw that the citizen was abit resisting the orders of the officer while frisking process.
The officer is free to follow our procedures, no restrictions on them for now.
Scriptly i can hear, if you tell me the script is perfectly done, nothing is perfectly made unless its by god, When the officer moved to his crusier and the citizen went to him, the conversation were cut out, i believe that an attorney should gather the info then evidence too before considering someone has done something.
From:Courts of the State of Liberty
Frankfort Ave.
Liberty City, Algonquin
From: Liberty State People's Court Jury, Spokesman of Liberty City Jury Mane Jugović
The court thanks the Sergeant Ray Fearon for his testimony, the Sergeant has made it clear he didn't hear and see all that took place in this scene.
As for defenses solicitor , Mr Kowalski i would strongly suggest you get your self more familiar with Liberty City laws and constitution before taking another case.
You have 4 issues, court needs to resolve, and some of them are already listed but never answered.
1. As per defenses claims, now the defense must present there evidence, not guesses that will show that plaintiff did indeed break the law at the time he was pulled over and searched.
2. Your claim that Sergeant Ray Fearon was able to hear you and my client clearly, yet didn't intervene as there was no abuse according to the constitution. Has been proven to be false.
3. There are no laws that state how Police officers should act, there is only constitution. As said before you even quoted and replied, when i said this.
4, You have signed and accepted that court will only use constitution as guideline's to evaluate did and abuse of power happen.
Court would like to once again explain to defenses solicitor: Crime is an action described in this document and is punishable by the law. Quote from laws of Liberty City as they are just that laws, they are under constitution. and only thing more important then constitution is server rules.
The court allows digression from the plaintiff if he feels that is something that needs to be mentioned.
Signed:
Mane_Jugović
Badgirldhia: Your client was given instructions by an Officer of the law. Failing to comply is a criminal offence.
we dont know why the spokesman dosent want to accept my statement !
while they are based on LCPD Procedures!
As a lawyer, I'd have thought you'd know that LCPD procedures are not laws and can't be used to press criminal charges. They are simply internal rules enforced by the LCPD within their department. If an LCPD Cadet+ (clearly not my client) breaches any of the said protocol, you can report them at the ARPD forums. (https://arpd.argonathrpg.com)
"The search can only be justified by reasonable doubts and reasons."
My client felt he had adequate reasoning to search you as you were at an area notorious for narcotics production. He didn't call a supervisor as he thought the Sergeant's presence was already considered supervisor presence.
To the Judges:
For proof, it's clear from Mr. Badboydhia's bodycam where he was, an area where cannabis is grown.
We dismiss our claims of Sergeant Fearon hearing what happened. ((scriptwise he could hear, i asked him over discord and hence why wrote that as /l range is specifically tuned by devs for roleplays))
((Also, According to my observation i saw that the citizen was abit resisting the orders of the officer while frisking process.
Scriptly i can hear, if you tell me the script is perfectly done, nothing is perfectly made unless its by god, When the officer moved to his crusier and the citizen went to him, the conversation were cut out, i believe that an attorney should gather the info then evidence too before considering someone has done something.
how can he know of badboy's resistance if he couldn't hear the conversation? He could, scriptwise, which should be considered rp as that's what the script range is set for.))
My client's demands remain the same.

Kowalski
Attorney
