IN THE MAGISTRATE'S COURT OF ALEXANDRIA
ENTREATY TO SUMMON

Honorable Magistrate,

I beseech this Court to issue a Writ of Summons requiring the following witnesses to appear for a Deposition, to be entered into the court record:
@PhillinDeBlanc
@CaseyLeFaye
@snow_crp
@bloodyrebals
@Krisztie
@pricelessAgrari

As the notion of a deposition is novel to Alexandrian law, I propose the following procedure:
  • If this Entreaty is accepted, the Magistrate shall issue a Writ of Summons for the above witnesses. Witnesses shall have 72 hours to appear.
  • Deposing counsel shall then have 72 hours to file their questions.
  • Witnesses shall then have 72 hours to answer.
  • Counsel may ask follow-up questions (how many "rounds" of follow-up questions are permitted is left for the Court to decide), following the same timelines described above.
  • Witnesses may have counsel present for the deposition. Witnesses' counsel may object to questions, and objections shall be reviewed by the Magistrate within 72 hours.
Respectfully submitted this 12 June, 2025,
~Capt11543
 
IN THE MAGISTRATES COURT OF THE KINGDOM OF ALEXANDRIA
Inquiry to the Claimant

The Court acknowledges the claimant's request for a deposition; however, before deciding whether to accept this deposition or not, the Court requires some form of contextual knowledge as to the purpose of the deposition, usually in the form of a Complaint or Affidavit.

Despite the claimant correctly identifying that the use of a deposition in isolation is novel compared to general court procedures, where it is included as part of Discovery, this does not significantly reduce the requirements for filing any court actions that the claimant would like to take.

Accordingly, the Court requests the claimant to provide a brief statement on the purpose of the deposition that the claimant requested.
 
I apologize for the lack of clarity in my original Entreaty. Please permit me to append to it the below content:

IN THE MAGISTRATE'S COURT OF THE KINGDOM OF ALEXANDRIA
ENTREATY TO AMEND ORIGINAL FILING

I. FACTS
  1. Between May 9, 2025, and May 13, 2025*, my client, IamJeb_, is alleged to have committed several murders.
  2. According to documents obtained from a Government Information Act Freedom of Information request processed by the Ministry of Justice, each of the officers summoned to testify investigated one or more of these alleged murders. (see P-001)
  3. According to the same documents, on May 25, 2025*, my client was fined £1300 by officer snow_crp, after being arrested earlier that day by presumably the same officer. (see P-002)
*These dates are inferred from the timestamps on the records shown, which were sent to Counsel on June 9, 2025, and presumably retrieved by the Ministry of Justice that same day.

II. REASON FOR DEPOSITION
  1. Counsel wishes to question the officers directly regarding their investigations of the alleged murders.
  2. Counsel wishes to further question officer snow_crp directly regarding my client's arrest.
  3. Counsel believes that the records held by the Ministry of Justice may be incomplete as to the full range of facts related fo this matter. Additionally, through no fault of theirs, the Ministry has as yet been unable to fulfill the Freedom of Information request. (Counsel would still expect the original Freedom of Information request to be fulfilled.) (see P-003)

IV. SWORN AFFIDAVIT

Your honor,

This amicus curiae should be brief. As the rules of court and the law stands now, no function exists to request a deposition. There exists no case in controversy for the Court to compel others to testify, and to do so would be ultra vires its powers. The magistrate court's function is to settle disputes, not to be used as a fact finding tool to determine whether a dispute exists.

Petitioner seeks to gain a deposition, a tool typically used to settle discovery issues before they arise at trial in a civil matter, to gain additional knowledge regarding an investigation by the Ministry of Justice. Instead of using the normal method of doing so through government information requests, they are now asking this Court to mediate a deposition despite no power to do so.

As such, this Court should dismiss this matter and instruct the filer to submit a civil suit so that it may compel testimony through the normal civil process.

The Court thanks the Crown for their Amicus Curiae Brief and will take it into consideration.

I will be unable to attend as a witness for an expected four days. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Given that witness PricelessAgrari is expected to be unable to testify for four days, the Court will allow PricelessAgrari to answer any questions posed by the Claimant within a 144 hour (6 days) time period instead of a 48 hour (2 days) time period.
 
IN THE MAGISTRATE'S COURT OF THE KINGDOM OF ALEXANDRIA
QUESTIONS FOR WITNESSES

To all present witnesses

1. During your investigation of the alleged incidents, did you interview any of the victims?

2. During your investivation of the alleged incidents, did you interview my client?

3. If any interviews were conducted, does the Ministry of Justice retain any records of these interviews?

To Officer snow_crp
In addition to the questions above,

1. Do you confirm or deny that you arrested my client on or about May 25, 2025?

2. If so, in relation to what alleged offense or offenses did you arrest my client?

3. In what manner did you inform my client of the charges against him?

4. Does the Ministry of Justice retain any records of your interactions with my client beyond those which this Court has received as evidence in this proceeding?
 
Given that witness @snow_crp has not shown up in Court after the allotted time, the Court will charge them with Contempt of Court with a fine of £100.

Additional contempt charges will be handed out for every 24 hours that the witness fails to show up.
 
Nope, I didn't interview them as neither of them was online at the time when I found the scene and collected the clues. And due to having just limited time for Detectives to solve crimes sadly it is lots of time impossible for detectives to wait for all participants to show up and explain each murder or duels they participated in. This is why It is the participant's duty to take proofs about consent - if there is any... as they are those who are surely at the time and place when the actual event occurs, and if its possible, open ticket and ask the person in charge to remove the wanted points in question. In additionally, the department is quite flexible in this and the participants do have the option to appeal, turning in proofs later to verify consented duels/fights.
