*a russtling can be heard, and in shuffles the accused, to stand in the dock, awaiting the trial to commence. Muffled sobs can be heard coming from the vicinity of the huge brown paper bag.*

*a crowd of jurors walk in with slow, measured strides and take their seats opposite the dock. Their faces are impassive as they await being sworn in*

Seems a bit unfair starting a trial without the defendant having a lawyer.

Mr 17 you are charged with lascivious behaviour on the weekend of 6-8 July 2001. How do you plead?

*clears throat and stands up*
M'lady... my client feels that this case should be thrown out on the grounds that he was just pursuing his duties as an ACE.
*smiles sweetly at judge and surrepticiously winks a couple of times*

I'm not really here Posted Jul 18, 2001
Hmm, is there a prosecuter here? Someone to sling the mud? I volunteer!

Counsel for the Defence I believe we debated this at the initial hearing.
I am not willing to dismiss the case for the following reasons 1) No where in the ACE code of conduct does it mention gratuitous snogging and 2) that would be boring.
