Answer to Civil Complaint:

Our laws are simple, as we are a new nation we do not have to worry about a whole mess of laws and issues, loopholes and technicalities. For this reason it is insane to see that the Ministry of "Justice" has illegally seized and detained by client - despite the law so clearly stating they cannot. Furthermore the sentence that has been handed down to my client, without a trial, is beyond all counts unreasonable and draconian. The manner in which the Ministry of "Justice" has ignored the court and acted without the proper authorization from the court in detaining my client shows their complete and utter disregard for the rule of law, the Crown's gift of governance, and most importantly their disregard for this very court (Which has been overruled by an out of control Ministry). There is only one legal remedy to this now, for the court to order my client to be released, given compensation, and for these charges to be dropped as they are fruit of the most poisonous, and frankly rotten, tree.

1. Plaintiff: The Royal Colony of the Azalea Isles, lead by prosecutor Matthew Romanus

2. Defendant: Krix, represented by DouCo Law Firm

Factual Defenses:

Mere seconds after this case was filed police swarmed my client, illegally seized him, and took him to jail. I rushed over to the scene and demanded they freed him, which they refused to do, shortly after he found himself in jail after a disgraceful public embarrassment of being dragged through the streets. This Ministry of "Justice" thinks they do not have to follow the law, this Ministry of "Justice" thinks they can just do whatever they want and ignore the place of our courts in our legal system. For this purpose I beg this court to see real justice be done, my client be freed, and this case been dismissed due to the police mishandling of the situation resulting in the whole events being tainted as fruit of the poisonous tree. 

Legal Defenses:

The Criminal Code states the following:

Only when the alleged crimes’ punishment is less than a $1,000 dollars fine or give less then 30 minutes in jail may the police apply the punishment without a trial. Before this trial even began, my client was illegally seized and forced into a jail cell for nearly 14 hours of punishment time - now I do believe that to be more than 30 minutes in jail.

The Ministry of "Justice" will claim that the law gives them the right to do this as they had filed the case, however filing the case is not the same as having a trial. The Criminal Code is very clear, it states that the police can only apply punishment without a trial if the crimes punishment is less than what is described in 4.1, to me this reads very plainly, punishment cannot be given if it exceeds the limits described - and my client has been punished without a trial. 

I would argue that based on this clause that punishment would have to wait until after the trial is concluded and a judge has given them the authority to act, for the police to lock someone up for 14 hours without a trial is madness and not based at all in our laws. 

Counterclaim/Motion of Dismissal:

We ask the court to take the following actions to remedy this horrific mess. 

1. My client, Krix, be released from jail immediately. 
2. This lawsuit to be dismissed as the law has been illegally applied against my client leading to a gross violation of his rights.
3. Compensation equaling $21,125 ($25 per minute my client has been illegally detained) to be paid to my client for the 825 minutes of jailtime, nearly 14 hours, that he has been illegally subjected to which is a violation of his "right to be secure against unreasonable search and seizure."

Verification:

I, The_Donuticus, hereby affirm that the allegations in the answer AND all subsequent statements made in court are true and correct to the best of the defendant’s knowledge, information, and belief and that any falsehoods may bring the penalty of perjury.

Just for clarity your honor, I filed a response to a civil complaint as that is what the Plaintiff has filed. 

I too would be very interested to hear the answers from the Plaintiff, sadly however my client has been in jail now illegally without a criminal trial. I would ask the court to please grant an emergency order for my client to be released.
