Dante Laptop: :D i like the term - in Ireland they are bar room lawyers

Lynn: no legal training but they've accumulated lots of misconceptions about what's technically allowed from listening to rumors from other people xD

Kelly: So long as she survives, I wouldn't mind that plot

Lynn: in the navy we called those people sea lawyers

Dante Laptop: I'm in several facebook groups for lawyersplaining - and this is the exact sort of rubbish someone would come up with and convince themselves they are right inspite of what all the lawyers say
4 mins ago
Kelly: Would it be before or after the trial? Obviously I have no plans for her to die, so they wouldn't succeed. And obviously they would be arrested if caught.

Dante Laptop: It would be the sort of thing some moron on facebook would convince themselves is true without any understanding of the law or how it works but in the full and firm belief that they are right 'EH TECHNICALLY'

Bee: Yeah that would be a big no no for several reasons

Lynn: Morgan could be the lawyer on that one

Dante Laptop: that would make sense! Someone should try and assassinate Acacia in the belief that it's not illegal! Proof that the university of hard knocks doesnt have a law school

Bee: I honestly have no idea, but anything human-like probably falls under the rule

Lynn: Tib used Imperio on a centaur once.

Dante Laptop: interesting question - can it then be used to killed vampire's with impunity as they are beings?

Dante Laptop: the wiki says its fellow human being, Muggle or wizard,

Bee: I think the use of them in general

Dante Laptop: the unforgiveables are only unforgiveable on humans right?

Whether or not someone wants to make a new character, have a current character make an impulsive decision, or this is a board NPC and every existing character is just reacting - specifically Ruskin, Darlington, and board lawyers. I'm doing an interest check if anyone wants to actually go along with this? Could also give someone further excuse to (temp?) make Martin Ruskin for concerned parent of the year. This could either be before or after the trial, and could possibly be after the wedding - should said wedding be allowed. Can I get an interest check from anyone?

I don't have any appropriate characters right now...but I'm more than willing to create somebody willing to try and assassinate Acacia. Will he eventually be arrested or is that pretty much up in the air depending on how things go?

It depends how things go. My main requirement is Acacia does survive.

I had assumed Acadia is to survive Smile I'll start working on the character if me playing it works for you. Whether he ends up arrested or killed later on, I'm fine with it. If he's not caught, just means I have a baddie ready to help out in future nastiness.

I should say! This was a joke! and could super backfire for Acacia - if part breeds are not considered human for the purposes of a marriage license - that could be relied on as precedent to make using the spells on half breeds legal.
Just thinking like a lawyer here - that is definitely the sort of the logic leap an unsympathetic judiciary could make,

Character is done, just wanting for approval. Edger Minks is his name.
