(open) shot-gun trials and foreign legal wiles

Date & Time: December 28th - January 2nd.
Location: Franziska's state of the art courtroom; law offices; the city.
Characters: ALL. Tag in when you tag in!
Summary: Jesse Pinkman goes on trial for murder. Some people want to see him convicted. Other people want to see him acquitted! Evidence will be presented, witnesses will be questions, the defendant himself will take the stand! All while being observed by a jury of peers, any lookers-on who so decide to attend, and the hapless just-made-temporary-judge who has to watch over all of this to the bitter end.
Warnings: Potential language, complete ridiculousness, and standard insanity.
Notes: THE ORDER OF EVENTS as they happen in the comments here are unimportant. As long as the subject lines are labeled in the initial comment to this post, go wild doing whatever makes the most sense or most fun to and for you. There is a timeline for when things should generally be happening, along with an OOC post to discuss specifics! Top comments will be linked in this top post, and updated once a day because Ish is slow.

Please comment to this post with one of the following subject lines and the IC date in order to inform those others tagging in what your character is available for. They are as follows (and may be added to at your discretion):

On the Witness Stand
At an Attorney's Side
In the Recess Alcove
In the Audience
Among the Jurors
Interrupting the Trial Proceedings
(anything else you can come up with falling outside these categories)

Characters on witness stand may be as character witnesses, as experts in a given field of study, as presenters and explainers of new or established evidence, or because someone got desperate and pulled them in off the street. Those who were interested in having their characters offer evidence, testimony, or assistance, even if it's totally ridiculous, are welcome to get On the Witness Stand.

[So, as defense assistant, Maya's there the entire trial! She'll mostly be sticking to Mia as a dutiful little sister-sidekick, but you can expect her present for the proceedings, either to make sassy remarks, be weird, or cheer Jesse or Mia on.]

[ALL IN A DAY'S WORK.]

Ah! Maya! You're here, too?!

[ Trucy couldn't resist a good trial. She might seem a bit out of place here, but she's doing her best to blend with the crowd and stick to the people she knows. Anyway, she promised Edgeworth she'd show him her special ability — what better place to do it than a genuine trial?

She has to say, though, she certainly wasn't expecting her manager to be here. Did she dabble in managerial justice, too? ]


It's been a great game so far, but looks like we're down in the 4th inning.. I wonder if we can make a comeback.

Of course I'm here, I'm practically the coach! [This would work better if it were Nick and not Mia defending, but.]

Don't worry, the other time might have the ball now, but we'll get it back and score a touchdown in no time! [Maya this is the incorrect sport]
