The Right Honourable Ms. Goethe, 4th Circuit Judge Presiding

[color=#FFFFFF]
Very well, as it appears that there are no further questions, I am ready to offer my verdict.
The defendant should rise.
While we agree that, perhaps, Yo-man was indeed ignorant to the law in question, or did not feel that he was indeed breaking the law with his actions, the fact still remains that he did commit the act.
On the count of hacking into a government communication channel, encrypted or otherwise, unaddressed to himself... The Court finds you GUILTY.
*bang of gavel*
However, we do feel that the original sentence of such a high amount of credits was... excessive, and so I am ordering you to pay a fine of 4 million credits to the Republic of Liberty, and sentencing you to two hours of community service.
You will report to Samuel Zanders, who will inform you as to what your two hours of community service will entail.
As there is no further business,
This court is adjourned.
Right Honourable Ms. Goethe, 4th circuit judge Presiding
Eli Rubin leaped from his seat. "What!? Your Honor, the defense files a Motion for Judgment Not withstanding the Verdict! No logical person would believe that my client is actually guilty in this situation!"

Rubin was furious. His face began to match the color of his fizzy sphere of hair. "Your Honor... This, this... This is an outrage! I demand a new trial for my client! One with a judge with more solid moral grounding and more solid mental judgment! Defense files a motion for a new trial!"

Yo-Man rise, gave a hand to Eli Rubin and whisper: "Calm down Eli...it's ok....4M fine is acceptable for me...You done a great job...really, from guilty and fine 75M it's end in 4M - for me it's a succes...not full but still."
Next, he turn to the Ms. Goethe, and spoke: "Thank You, Your Honor - maybe I do not fully accepts the fact of my guilt, but I will pay the fine. I want to have my life clean, as clean is my conscience."
After few seconds of silence Yo-Man continues: "I want to thank to Mr. Eli for his help, and all people who send me an letters with words of recognition and support....
I want to thank all people who do not turn back to me - when I was charged....
Thank You all....
But now I'd like to back to my home, to Freeport 2, to my Wife and two Kids...
I'd like back to my life - and forget the nightmare what I went through."
Another pause. "But hear me all - this is not end...
Now When I pay the fine - I will have a clear record - and I will able to start a new case."
He raised his voice: "I will demand to start investigation last actions of TF7 in Berning and punish people who was responsible, also I will demand apology and compensation from Samuel Zanders who accused me of attacks on innocent people"
[font=Palatino Linotype]Zanders walked towards Yo-MAN with a steady pace, once he reached him he said:
[color=#FFCC66]"You are to conduct a two-hour community service in addition to that four million fine. I will be supervising it as stated by the judge. You have 24 hours to prepare yourself, then you will be contacted, and you will follow my precise orders."
Zanders turned his back and took a few steps towards the exit before he turned his head around:
"By the way, the victory lied in the validation of the charge, not the extent to which it was applied. Justice, always wins."
