Give me a nice Polish Sausage with Bacon Bits, Cheese, Pickles, Olives, Ketchup, Mustard, and a dash of Barbeque sauce please?

Also, the office of the District Attourney of Flare has determined there is sufficient evidence to support an Attempted World Domination Charge. The D.A.'s office makes a motion to amend the indictment.

Does the defense care to object?

It's a well known fact. Maybe next you'll object to the sky being reffered to as blue? The sun yellow? No, no, the Pacific Ocean isn't salty!

We will provide evidence that the Changing of the Flare Forums was purely a front, and that it represents part of his plans to take over the world. We will also provide evidence that points to a past attempt at World Domination. Now if you'll excuse us, we must start Jury selection.

You'll need witnesses... better subpoena Jubes.

I'll only testify under condition of immunity from any charges relating to MY conspiracy to take over the United States.

And if somebody buys me a Monster Burger combo. With Iced Tea.

Full, Complete, Immunity Granted

But as for your menu order, can't do anything about that.

Hmmm...MrCapps still is not attendance? That gives me the right to revoke bail - no objections by the defense necessary. Right?

Speaking on behalf of the defense, but not ofically part of the defense team...I submit an amicus curiae brief.

If it please the court, Mr. Capps has not had not had yet been indicted offically. Nor has the District Attorney's Office filed the any specifics relating to the charges leading to the arrest and detainment of Mr. Capps.

This is, as I take it, a preliminary hearing taking note of whether Mr. Capps is to be bound over for trial. I would also take the time to remind the Court that as an American citizen, Mr. Capps has right and immunities layed out in the 5th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States and justice demands that Mr. Capps be allowed a full and equal hearing which would include a and specific indictement by the prosecution.

To elimiate bail at this point in the proceeding is prejudical against Mr. Capps as he is entitled to consideration under the 8th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States:

quote:
Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted

Revocation bail at this time would be outside the bounds of an impartial hearing by this Court. Mr. Capps has been arrested and has apparently had a bail hearing subsequent to his release from jail on bond.

Mr. Capps is represented by council which should be adequate at this point in the proceedings. His presence not having been specifically called for by the Court, Mr. Capps need not appear before Court on this matter at this time.

Should the Court find for a reconsideration of bail, we would remind the Court of Mr. Capp's status as a leading citizen of the the Seattle area and of the fact that there have been no appempts made to flee from the jurisdiction of this Court. He is quite simply a productive member of society and not a flight risk.

I thank the Court for its time and consideration.

The word is spelled "indict", not "indite".

Thank you for your concern, Jay, but the District Attourney's office was never notified on the particulars of bail, nor was it given a chance to participate in Mr. Capps' Bail Hearing. We have made the motion to revoke Mr. Capps' bail based on this and based on the fact that he poses a significant threat to the entire world. Mr. Capps' prior attempt at world domination should be a sign that the defendant should be held without bail not only for the safety of the people, but for his own safety as well. I cite People vs (??????) in which "the defendant can be held without bail if there is evidence that he/she may be subject to harm from society in any form of reprisal".

As for the formal Indictments, they have been processed and sent to Mr. Capps' Defense team. As you may know, the charges are Conspiracy to take over the World and Attempted World Domination. We are also processing a charge of Posession of Illegal Sheep to be added to the indictment.

I'm making a motion to have the sheep severed from this trial. They will be tried separately.

Your honour, I object! My clients are the victims in this matter! They are prepared to provide testimony in all the matters currently before this court!
