Lawsuit: Pending Deposition I (Mag. Ct., 2025)

[Capt11543]

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.

 

[Capt11543]

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)

III. EVIDENCE

Spoiler: P-001

Spoiler: P-002

Spoiler: P-003

IV. SWORN AFFIDAVIT

I, Capt11543, do swear and affirm that the above information is true and correct, to the best of my knowledge, and in my good-faith belief.

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.
