SUMMONS FOR THE CROWN V BARCLAY

[frill 2277]

 

THE CROWN V BARCLAY

 

The Holy Orenian Empire

As represented by Veikko Harjalainen, esq.

 

DESIRES TO SUMMON THE FOLLOWING PARTY TO COURT;

 

Konstanz Barclay

 

ON THE BASIS OF THE FOLLOWING PRINCIPLE(S), DOCTRINE(S), EDICT(S) OR ARTICLES OF LAW:

 

Pursuant to the following articles of law;

 

XVI. Sedition, the act of inciting disorderly conduct against Imperial functionaries or the Empire and hurting its majesty, is illegal. 

 

XVI.I. Insulting the Empire and its functionaries, while not inciting disorderly conduct, is still considered to be an incentive for others to act disorderly, and is therefore considered sedition.

 

The empire believes the following quotes from the concession speech of Konstanz Barclay are tantamount to breaches in the law, and further act as a calculated attempt to stir dissent and undermine the authority of House Barbanov and the government of Haense, and the empire and its governmental organs;

 

"The establishment was too complacent to a clique of Imperial bootlickers, seeking to slowly kill off our way of life and our freedoms.”

 

“Our crucial Senate seat shall go to an invisible imperial bootlicker yet again”

 

“We will see our freedoms limited and our opposition silent”

 

“What has [Senator] Siegmund done for Haense, aside of being an establishment insider and career politician?”

 

“While we may not find our nation defended in the Senate”

 

ON THE DESIRED DATE OF:

10^th of the Sun’s Smile

[[ Sun Oct 20]]
 

YOURS,

 Imperial Solicitor General Veikko Harjalainen, esq.

The Solicitor General’s Office, Varoche Hall, City of Helena, Holy Orenian Empire.

Vivaca Rutledge frowns, reading the letter in Curonia’s tavern, “A man criticizes the empire and then goes to court!. Orenia is truly a great nation!” She said sarcastically, shaking her head

“They can't even stick to their own procedures.”  Konstanz would chuckle. secretly practicing his rebel speech in the empty town square of Helena, where no one would see him.

Wilheim shirks a bit but nonetheless enjoys the Southeron Tea. “V-Vivaca, he’s not being summoned because of speaking out. It’s mostly because his sedition was leading a group of Haensemen into Helena and harassing the common and nobles. Almost broke out into a very gruesome fight. I heard he stomped his foot and pouted ‘bout it.”

Vivaca chuckles, “What’s wrong with speaking out? this letter says that he is being summoned for the so-called harmful language directed at the empire. It is freedom of speech, Wilheim! Let him protest, he has every right to!”

“Okay Imperial bootlicker, hope he sees this brüder.” Konstanz would note, hiding in plain sight at the empty Helena square.
