Trinity walked into the courtroom. She scanned the courtroom. Good, she thought, private and no press. She knew Matthew didn't need anymore exposure than he was already getting. She stepped up to her desk and sat beside an already waiting Matthew. She smiled lightly at him and opened her briefcase taking out her notes and files.

The CO (court officer), stood and spoke. All rise, the honorable Andrew Keyes presiding.

ooc: i just made that one up. You never have an arraignment judge hear a case once it goes to trial.

Trinity and Matthew stood. The judge took his seat and the others followed.

OOC: Cool ill follow you on most of the procedures I trust you'll do it properly. Now I go first for araignment right?

Ami stood as the judge took his place. Sitting once he instructed the court to do so.

Judge Keyes: Governor Triggs. How do you plead?

Trinity: Not guilty your honour.

Keyes: Miss Lenton?

Ami: We ask the court for reprimand your honour. The defendant has almost unlimited resources at his disposal and has been linked to a major criminal organisation as well as several murders and ongoing investigations. We believe he is a danger to the community and a major flight risk.
