As the call for silence resounds, the trial starts and Alex learns the ident.i.ty of the witch."Hear! At the date of 8 September 1991, the trial opposing Alexander Daren Evans against Lady Lily Potter will start. The session will be under the Chief warlock, Griselda Marchbanks."
"Thank you, Want are the charge pressed against Lady Potter?" Ask the old woman, but just before the head of the DMLE starts, Alex raises off his seat.
"Excuse me Chief warlock." Surprise by his intervention, all look turns to the young boy who didn"t flatter under all the gazes.
"Yes, M.Evans?"
"Why is Lord Potter in his seat, as the trial will concern his wife and son, it inappropriate that he have a say in this as his voice will be biased." Incensed by the gall of the boy and furious that he was able to show himself, James Potter raised from his seat and shout.
"You dare your insolent little s.h.i.t!" A soon as he says this, flashes illuminate the room and scratching sound resounds, his peers ashamed of his loss of composture.
"First, is this how a Lord should speak? You seem rather short-tempered, and yet they still let you act as Aurors? Does all your case have been properly led or have you throw them in holding sell on your mood whim?" When she hears that Amelia Bones growl, knowing that the pureblood who have relative in Azkaban because of James Potter would use this as legitimate opportunities to have then reopened those cases. Should their is a single letter not correctly transcribed, and they would be free.
The Purebloods hearing this lit up, knowing they have been given a legitimate case.
"But that not what was here, speaking of this, Lord Potter, could you explain to me, how my convocation was in your office? As the Ministry been so lax that one of them could steal important missive from them?" When he says this, gasps run through the room, and all saw Lord Potter lost color. Stealing legal letters from the Wisengamot was a serious crime. Seeing his reaction, she didn"t have another choice.
"Aurors, arrest Lord Potter, tempering with the official business of the Wisengamot his a crime."
"More so when my none partic.i.p.ation would see has his wife and child released!"
"It was unnecessary M. Evans." Says Amelia irritated at the way this was going.
"Are you Saying Madam Bones that this body didn"t need to be alerted of your own Aurors crimes?" When he says this she knows she f.u.c.ks up and the trials today were already lost. Slumping on her seat as Lord Potter was dragged out of the room shouting under the flashes and scratch of quills on parchment.
Banging her hammer, Griselda restored order in the room.
"Madam Bones, please made the accused enter."
With a wave of her hand, Lily Potter was escorted in the room in the chain before seated in the wooden chair on the platform facing the panel of judge. When she didn"t see James on her seat, the downcast expression of their allies, and the jubilating gaze of the dark side, she knows that her slip up would have heavy consequences.
"Lily Potter, you are accused of a count of an attempt of bodily harm on a proved familiar of x.x.x cla.s.s, a count of a.s.sault of a student in your capacity as a teacher, and a count of a.s.sault against the sole Heir of Clan Evans." The last one was a gamble for him, reveling this soon that he was an heir could be dangerous for him but if he wants to get rid of her he didn"t have another choice. When the judge hears the last charge they became outraged, raising your hand against the proved last Heir of a house could lead to serious repercussions. seeing a way to inflict great harm to House Potter, and under the order of Lucius Malfoy, Marcus Nott raise.
"Be it haded attempt of line thief!"
"Seconded!" Lord Parkinson immediately followed. as the motion was seconded, the Chief warlock hadn"t other choices but to submit the motion to vote.
"Those for the added charge of attempt of line thief, raise your wand." The entire block of the dark side immediately illuminates followed by the grey side and a few of the light. Seeing that four-fifth of the panel and a clear majority, she still asks.
"Those against the charge of attempt of line thief." A meager smattering composed of the allies of the family and followers of Dumbledore made their voice know but in vain.
"With a clear majority, the charge of attempt of line thief his to be added to the other charges. Has the crime was committed in front of a large number of witness and the DMLE had processed the crime scene, the Wisengamot will withdraw and deliberate."
The Lord and Head of Departement enclosed themselves in an adjacent room for the next ten minutes before returning to their seat. Taking her place before speaking, the chief warlock looks at Lily straight in the eyes with a hard gaze.
"Lady Potter, you have been convicted for the attempt of bodily harm on a proved familiar of x.x.x cla.s.s, the a.s.sault of a student in your capacity as a teacher, a.s.sault against the sole Heir of Clan Evans and attempts of line thief. House Potter will be fined 100,000.00G for the first charge, you will lose your position of professor at Hogwarts along with a life long ban to any teaching position. House Potter will be fined 10,000,000.00G for your a.s.sault on an heir along with 5 years in Azkaban in the lower security cell. For your attempts of line thief, House Potter will be fined 50,000,000.00G and 10 years in Azkaban high-security cell. The entire of the fine will be transferred to Heir Evans. Take her away!"
Once the sentence gave, Lily Potter fainted on her chair and need to be levitated out of the courtroom and on her way to Azkaban in a disturbing silence as the a.s.sembly digest what just happen. Alex was given a bill with the seal of the Wisengamot to take to Gringotts in order to claim his compensation from the Potter vaults.
"Bring the next accused!" The room could hear the yells before he was introduced in. For his third public apparition, it was a levitated James Jr who made his way in the chair has the chains were fixed in the ground. Before they could even start, they were forced to silence the boy, who was now proffering profanities and death threats to Alex along with blatant abuse of his father"s power in order to sink him. While the quills of the journalist were transcribing every word as they were gold, the Lord of the Wisengamot mood worsens at each. Once finally silenced and taking a minute for their headache to receded, the chief warlock spoke.
"I was going to ask if the accused was feeling any regret as young are prompt to show so short temper but it evident that the child as clearly been poorly raised. Madam Bones, read the charges, so we could go with the next matter of this session."
"Yes, chief warlock. James Jr Charlus Potter is accused of a count of an attempt of bodily harm on a proved familiar of x.x.x cla.s.s, the attempt of a.s.sault of a student, attempt a.s.sault against the sole Heir of Clan Evans."
"Attempt only?"
"Yes, due to the accused... poor skill, he has been taken down physically before he could attack, he did draw his wand against his opponent without provocation, through."
"Very well, as those same charges have been already debated, House Potter will be fined 100,000.00G For the first charge, will be put in probation at Hogwarts and House Potter will be fined another 5,000,000.00G for the attempt of a.s.sault on an Heir. As the accused of his minor, a further 2,500,000.00G will be fined to replace the stay in Azkaban. Next!"
Still silenced, James was escorted out of the courtroom and would be brought to Hogwarts under Aurors" supervision directly.
