this is SOP in the us monopoly kangaroo court system when the state is the "aggrieved" - in many british derived systems all over the world now they even have kicked the jury out and not replaced it with a tribunal, they are just summary jurisdictions, a dog and pony show to make it seem like the process is legitimate

and yes, i did one of these kinds of things against them kidnapping my little 50cc motorcycle twice

judgeypoo subjected me to almost an hour of reading irrelevant case law that had nothing to do with my claim, which struck at the heart of grandfathered in law from 1624, the statute of monopolies, which in fact makes all such laws about copyright and taxation void, but they just pretend that i'm not making a valid argument and slam the gavel anyway
