Objection, Your Honour, Unresponsive Answer
The plaintiff was a worker and a shareholder of the company.

Should this Objection be overruled, I ask that Your Honour let's me rephrase the question.
 
Thank you, Your Honour

Mr BeezerGeezer:

Robidemon2 was not a tenant or owner of the plot, he was a member of the plot.
 
Thank you to all of the witnesses for your time. The Plaintiff now has 48 hours to present a closing statement.
 
Closing Statement
During this case there has been one prevailing factor that has been presented in all of the MOJs dealings, that is confusion. At the start of the altercation as shown by the opening filing MR DK said that "When you have an active arrest warrant" police can enter your property. Mr Hanuta made the same statement in the response to the initial complaint, alleging the very same thing and even contending the qualification of the farm plot as "private property". Later on Mr Emerald the arresting officer said that an arrest warrant was not enough thus defying Mr Brehmers statement and General DKs. The MOJ has also attempted to argue that my arrest constituted a "pursuit", as per the cambridge dictionary pursuit is "the act of following someone or something to try to catch him, her, or it" defense council has unsuccesfully argued that a pursuit can occur without the "following" part.

Plaintiff believes this conditional was added in order to give officers the opportunity to arrest a suspect "fleeing" into private property not to give officers the opportunity to enter private property under the premise of a pursuit. As previously said Plaintiff also believes that . Mr Anthony.org's statement concurrs with my belief that there is a large tree line besides the property, I think this would not have made me visible. None of the conditionals were met for my arrest to occur and like I have previously said

While the act does say that "The Ministry of Justice must obtain a warrant before entering or searching private property" I think its important to analyze what the intent of the language is. A warrant is the quintessential protection the individual has to overzealous government officials, and when reading this criminal code the language seems to me to be trying to achieve just that. The word that points at this the most is "searching", when looking at the constitution we see that one of the many rights given to the citizens of Azalea is the right against "unreasonable search and seizure". A warrant exists to protect said right this warrant is called a search warrant where once again we see that key word feature, "A court order authorizing law enforcement to search a specific location...". An arrest warrant would never be able to protect the citizen's constitutional right thus the existence of the search warrant, one which I think the criminal code act expressly references by its use of the word search in Section 11(d). Even looking at the caveats attached we see this theory be reinforced:

When consent has been given by the property owner or occupant.

In cases of emergency, where there is an immediate threat to life, safety, or property.

When the property is in plain view, and the search or seizure is related to a crime being committed in the presence of law enforcement.

When pursuing a suspect who has fled into the property.

When authorized by a valid court order for a specific investigation or operation.



It is abundantly clear that every single one of the conditionals are there to point at cases where a search is no longer "unreasonable", words like "pursue", "emergency", and consent all point to this fact. If the conditionals try to address this constitutional protection would it be too much to assume that the warrant in question is the one that aims to do the exact same thing?

Law enforcement has wrongly interpreted the criminal code act and has violated the rights afforded to Plaintiff by the constitution.
 
Thank you. The Defense has 48 hours to provide a closing statement. The Court sincerely apologies for the delay, I am finishing up finals.
 
Your Honor, the Minister of Justice appears to be currently occupied with real world circumstances.

As such, I am requesting to be added as counsel for the Defendant, and I am requesting a 72 hour extension so that I can review the case and get up to speed.
 
Your Honour,

I sincerely apologise for not responding to the case. The last week has been a though one for me due to illness and IRL occupation. Now, I am available again and will finish the case.

I request another extension of 48 hours to finish up the closing statement so that I can deliver it tomorrow afternoon, Middle European Standard Time.

Thank you for your understanding.
 
Your Honour,
The plaintiff accuses the defense to be confused, yet it is him to which this applies. Emerald never once stated that, against the perception of the defense, an arrest warrant would be insufficient, which would also constitute improper opinion and therefore a statement that is irrelevant to the taking of evidence. And to add to their confusion, the plaintiff tries to substantiate their view with vague dictionary definitions and overanalysation of single words in addition to a rather questionable perception of our constitutional rights.

But see, your Honour, it is so very simple. Let’s pretend the court gives in to the plaintiff’s claims and drops all charges publicly for everyone to see. Many people will probably not care but I can tell your Honour, who does care: the criminals. Mischievous people will see this judgement and understand that in order to escape law enforcement they would have to merely hide on a more or less invisible property with their fellow mates and pretend to work there or some other stuff. They would just need to find a friend who owns a property and lets them live there - not even be part of the tenancy agreement - and we can not get to them. Your Honour call me crazy or pessimistic but it is realistic that we soon live in a reality in which law enforcement has ultimately been undermined should the plaintiff’s filing be sustained. I can only repeat myself, we cannot let this madness be unleashed upon our legal state.

Our constitution protects us from government overreach that is true, and the criminal code does this as well. Yet, it is noticeable that the Criminal Code does not define which warrant is needed which could be accidental but to me seems intentional given the importance of a clear definition. No author of the criminal code would have wanted such an ambiguity on such an important matter, which is why I believe section 11 of the criminal code is written in this way not to give way for interpretation but because both warrants - arrest warrant and search warrant - are liable to constitute a legal entering of property.

I also agree with the Plaintiff on the matter, that protection from unreasonable search and seizure is a very important constitutional right. Yet it is also important to note that this protection has its limit. What makes an unreasonable search and seizure reasonable can be found in the criminal code, as the Plaintiff has already laid out. I have already spoken at length about this in my opening statement, but I would like to add one thing: I believe that there are situations, in which these protections can not be upheld for an individual. For example, if somebody’s actions are clearly directed against the constitution and the rule of law like taking somebody’s life or robbing and therefore disregard their fundamental rights as well. If not to catch a dangerous criminal, when else is this protection no longer reasonable?

And I intentionally used the word “dangerous”, because, Your Honour, you have to know that during this trial, the plaintiff’s criminal record included multiple theft and murder charges. They were not merely a little offender but full blown criminal but we couldn’t do anything against it. And they knew that as long as this case was going on and as long as they continued to stay on their little farm, we would not do anything. As long as they held onto their plan, they could undermine public safety as long as they wanted without the interference of the police. Our legal state grants our citizens protection of property but also has the obligation to guarantee freedom and security. Now it is up to Your Honour to decide, which principle prevails.

I believe that it must be the latter.
