Closing Statement


IN THE FEDERAL COURT OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF REDMONT
CLOSING STATEMENT

Your Honor,

The Commonwealth believes that through the course of this trial, witness testimony has demonstrated that the alleged crimes did occur, we shall cover each charge and examine how it is proven beyond a reasonable doubt.

Ownership Structure Fraud

This charge is the most clear-cut, with the Defense having provided no evidence to deny its nature. The Defendant billed Royal Dragon & Shell as an LLC, purporting a legally backed system of shares and ownership valid in the jurisdiction of Redmont. Contrary to this, Staff have unequivocally confirmed that no filing exists, or ever existed, registering Royal Dragon & Shell as an LLC under the authority of the DOC. Staff went further to clarify that only a severe abuse of staff power could have conceivably concealed such a filing, something which has not occurred. The Defense claims that there can be reasonable doubt as “multiple people firmly recall it being so”, this is entirely conjecture, the Defense failed to call even a single witness to testify under oath that they remembered such a company docket. The facts stand as such. Staff has firmly concluded that no company docket ever existed, and no valid evidence has been submitted that could even contest this fact with reasonable doubt. Therefore, this Court must conclude that RDS was never registered as an LLC under Redmontian law.
We then examine how this amounts to fraud. It is clear that RDS knowingly and recklessly misrepresented their ownership structure, claiming an LLC structure and legal legitimacy that simply did not exist. As evidenced by the public trading of the company on official stock exchanges, citizens relied on the false information provided by the company as justification to make investments and purchase stock, taking on risk of losing their entire investments due to the faux legal nature of the purported shares they purchased. Royal Dragon & Shell provided fraudulent information to the public and its investors, reaping elevated valuations by selling a false bill of goods not protected by Redmontian laws surrounding LLC ownership.

Exchange Rate Fraud

This charge has been thoroughly supported by witness testimony, it is abundantly clear that the exchange rate utilized by Royal Dragon & Shell when calculating its valuation was at best grossly misrepresented, and at worse completely falsified. Witness ElysiaCrynn has testified that both the DOC and the FRB believe that “The rate is unsubstantiated and lacks the support of reliable market data to validate a 1:10 ratio“. It is clear then that no economic entity can verify the validity of such a ratio of exchange. The Defense again provides no evidence to support why this exchange rate could at all be validated or grounded in reality, instead falsely suggesting that the government “affirmed” a 1:10 market rate. The Commonwealth did not affirm any market rate discussed in Slipknot, such a market rate was not included whatsoever in discussions. By acknowledging that the instance of foreign exchange occurred, the Commonwealth was not lending official credence to any purported exchange rate utilized.
The Commonwealth has witness testimony that establishes that an exchange rate of 10:1 is both absurd, and unmoored from reality. Instead of providing any evidence or witness testimony to corroborate their claims that an exchange rate of 10:1 was indeed valid, the defense instead leans heavily on conjecture. This is indeed extremely fraudulent, RDS claimed to have assets with a valuation in CRP currency, and claimed asset valuations in Redmontian currency using this fraudulent exchange rate. By utilizing this unsubstantiated ratio, the Defendant vastly inflated the supposed material valuation of their sole proprietorship. As we have established, quantifiable harm occurred to investors and “shareholders” who bought into this company at heightened values, well above what any reasonable exchange rate would have established, leading to a defrauding of value.
This however, holds no water to the real issue at hand. City RP does not exist. Staff have adamantly declared that no, there is no sanctioned relationship or economic connection between the two servers. In actuality, as demonstrated by P-004, RDS holds 0 monetary assets in Redmont, and indeed all properties listed as being owned by RDS are present on City RP, not Democracycraft. City RP is not a part of the “Blockverse”, this is an unmistakable fact. A company that relies on fantasy properties and assets, would unquestionably be falsifying a valuation based on something that simply does not exist. As City RP functionally does not exist in the “Blockverse”, it is impossible for this court to recognize any valuation purported by RDS as legitimate based on what equates to the validity of Monopoly Money within the Democracycraft Server.

Market Manipulation

As already established above, the exchange rate utilized by Royal Dragon & Shell in order to calculate asset prices was entirely untethered to reality. The Defendant utilized this falsified exchange rate to fraudulently inflate the valuation of all RDS property assets well above what a reasonable exchange rate would support. This is a textbook example of market manipulation, the assets supposedly owned by RDS had their valuation artificially increased using the false exchange rate of 10:1.

False Advertising

The Defense proclaims that due to a legal disclaimer placed within the Royal Dragon & Shell Investor Presentation it is shielded from any prosecution of false advertisement. This is a misunderstanding of the Commercial Standards Act. A Commercial Advertisement is defined in §9(9) of the Commercial Standards Act as “An advertisement intended to benefit or harm a privately owned or operated business”. The contents of the RDS Investor Presentation are clearly designed to benefit RDS by drawing in further investments and increasing the value of its purported shares. As established above, RDS is a supposed LLC with shares protected by Redmontian law, and the asset valuations using the 10:1 exchange rates are provably false. Therefore the only defense is whether a legal disclaimer removes all potential liability.
The disclaimer makes the claim that the presentation “should not be construed as legal, tax, investment or other advice”. However, a publication does not necessitate containing advice in order to act as an advertisement, it merely contains a depiction of a business or its products/assets in order to influence the behaviors of others, this can happen without explicitly containing direct advice. Furthermore, this disclaimer contains a clause structured akin to a contract, stating that “By viewing or accessing the information contained in this presentation, you acknowledge and agree that none of the Company or any of its officers, directors, affiliates, advisers or representatives accept any responsibility whatsoever (in negligence or otherwise) or any loss howsoever arising from any information presented or contained in this presentation or otherwise arising in connection with the presentation”. This “agreement” cannot be in any way legally binding as it lacks any concrete acceptance under §4(2)(b) of the Contracts Act, as no response has been communicated to the offeror.
Ultimately, this is a novel argument made by the defense. Can a disclaimer fully protect from any criminal liability when the information contained within is clearly false advertisement for the benefit of a company. We leave this decision up to the Honorable Judge.

Summary

The evidence presented is sufficient to prove that the actions undertaken by the defendant were criminal in nature. The defense has failed to provide any concrete verifiable evidence to support any of its claims, rather resorting to conjecture and speculation to attempt to discredit the prosecution's ideas. Witness testimony has corroborated beyond any reasonable doubt that there never existed any LLC structuring agreement for RDS, making any information claiming otherwise false. Witness testimony has additionally corroborated that a 10:1 exchange rate between DC and CRP is fully divorced from reality, and any valuation based upon it is therefore vastly and fraudulently inflated. All members of the public who purchased “shares” of RDS were deceived by a literal shell of a company. Shares which supposedly granted a legitimate stake in a corporation with a claimed revenue of $3,000,000 were hawked to the public by the Defendant. In reality however, within the “Blockverse” RDS is a sole proprietorship with 0 cash assets, 0 properties in redmont, and 0 legitimacy provided by LLC registration. To claim otherwise was a crime that defrauded many investors, and deluded them with false promises of becoming a legitimate shareholder. We ask that the Defendant be held accountable for this scheme to pitch Royal Dragon & Shell as something it was not.

Motion


MOTION TO STRIKE

This statement was filed 13 hours late. By the Commonwealth's own admission, it was late because they wanted to "polish off [their] closing statment"

Your honor, if everyone is just allowed to be 13 hours late because they wanted to "polish off" their statements, what is the purpose of deadlines?

The Commonwealth ignored the court's third deadline and expects no recourse.

We ask they be held accountable to the deadlines and their closing statement be struck.
