Oh, I am so sorry for misunderstanding. I can copy paste my post into here and report the other one to the moderators for removal.

"Please rise. The Court of the Alleyverse, Third Circut, Criminal Division, is now in session, the Honorable Judge Mistspren presiding." intones the dull voice of the bailiff. 

I walk into the room, trying to project a stately air, and climb onto the podium, sitting down. "You may be seated." I proclaim.

"Your Honor, the case today is Libre v. Thorstenson." reads the bailiff, thick stack of papers held inches from his marbled red and black nose, despite his thick spectacles. The man was a Listener who preferred to remain in dullform at all times for spiritual reasons. Still, he did his job well, never having faltered in fifty years of service, and I was glad to work with him.

"Is the prosecution ready?" I ask, looking at Gancho Libre, waiting for him to confirm or deny.

"Your honor," Gancho said. "I call for a punishment suited for the violation of the terms each Unbiased hold. Mac, who said he had no biases or preferences, has put one guild over another. The information of the Ghostbloods, which I'm sure you've seen, was given to @Kidpen . By who, you may ask? Someone we shouldn't have trusted. Yes, he was Unbiased, but MacThorstenson stole our information and gave it to another. He put another guild above us," Gancho concluded. "I will see justice served!"

Thats a good idea, TFA.

Addressing TFA's idea

I am not a fan of the judge system I think we should have a tribunal formed of representatives from the major guilds.

The issue would be that the Gbs couldn't fairly sit on that tribunal. I think the judge system, for this case at least, is faster, fairer, and wild yeild an unbiased result. The judge's credibility and authority stems from the fact that both parties agreed to his appointment. This should be a good trial with just a judge.

Edit: if anyone intends to call any witnesses, be sure to give them plenty of warning so they can be prepared.

The Ghostbloods would be balanced by Liebrary DA, TUBA, CoC, etc.

Your honor, my client pleads guilty on all charges. However, we would like to stipulate in the punishment that any future reincarnation of Thorsten should not be killed by the Ghostbloods without fair reason. They need to have a contract or Thorsten needs to act against them in order for a killing to be allowed. Other death must not be controlled by the Ghostbloods.

Since I misunderstood that Gancho was the lawyer for the GBs, I am renaming the case Ghostbloods v. Thorstenson, for greater accuracy.

“Thank you, Kidpen, Gancho Libre. Libre, you may call your first witness to the stand to be sworn in by the bailiff.”

So... am I allowed to say that I agree with these terms, and then the punishment happens?

and... since I have stuff of Mac confessing, can I call HIM to the stands?

You may, if you are satisfied, refuse to give a witness, and instead accept his terms, and if Kidpen agrees the sentencing can commence as such.
