Case Filing


[Volinon vs. Spacebubble78]
IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF REDMONT
CIVIL ACTION


Volinon
Plaintiff

v.

Spacebubble78
Defendant

COMPLAINT
The Plaintiff complains against the Defendant as follows:

I offered people a chess game, with a wager of $100, and if so to send an invite, my message was, ' anyone wanna play chess? 100 wager /chess invite Volinon ' the defendant, Spacebubble78, sent me an invite to a game, i accepted, and we played. I ended up winning the game, but he never sent the money. I asked him about it and at first he didn't respond, then after i said i had contacted an attorney said he wasn't gonna send me the money.

I. PARTIES
1. Volinon
2. Spacebubble78

II. FACTS
1. Volinon offered a chess game with a wager of $100, open to anyone (P-01).
2. Spacebubble78 accepted the invitation to play chess. (P-02)
3. After the game, in which Volinon won, Volinon received no money, and got no response at first. They sent out another message informing the defendant that they were “currently speaking to an attorney” and asked for their money back. (P-04)
4. Spacebubble78 responded with, “nah im good”, signifying that they would not pay the 100$ and therefore breaking the agreement both parties had. (P-03)

III. CLAIMS FOR RELIEF
1. There was an understanding or agreement that the Defendant would provide the Plaintiff 100$ if they lost the game, as the word “wager” signifies.
2. The defendant actively acknowledged that they would in fact not give $100
3. While doing so, the defendant has been disrespectful and unwilling to cooperate.
4. Their agreement has been breached.

IV. PRAYER FOR RELIEF
The Plaintiff seeks the following from the Defendant:
1. 100$ in Compensatory Damages, which is the value of the wager.
2. 200$ in legal fees to hummusman6969, the lawyer.
3. 1000$ in Consequential Damages, due to loss of enjoyment and stress caused by this case, along with the large amount of time lost. The defendant is also not in good financial status, and needed that amount in order to stay afloat.

By making this submission, I agree I understand the penalties of lying in court and the fact that I am subject to perjury should I knowingly make a false statement in court.

DATED: This 1st day of June 2026

Verdict


IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF REDMONT
VERDICT

Volinon

Plaintiff

v.

Spacebubble78
Defendant

I. Background​

This matter comes before the Court on a civil complaint for breach of contract.

The Plaintiff, Volinon, alleges that he offered to play a chess game with a $100 wager. The Defendant, Spacebubble78, accepted the wager by accepting the invitation to play. The Plaintiff won the game. After the game, the Defendant refused to pay the agreed $100.

The Defendant failed to appear or otherwise defend the matter. The Court therefore proceeds by default judgment on the known facts of the case. Default judgment is appropriate where a defendant fails to submit a defense or otherwise respond to the claims before the Court (see Old Court Rules and Procedures, Rule 3.6, Information - Court Rules and Procedures [Deprecated]).

This case is sufficiently clear on the pleadings and submitted record that no further inquest is necessary. The Court also finds that appointment of a public defender is unnecessary in this civil matter because the issue is straightforward and the claim turns on a simple contractual wager.

II. Breach of Contract​

The Plaintiff’s claim is for breach of contract.

Under the Contracts Act, a contract is a legally binding agreement between two or more parties that creates an obligation to do or not do a particular thing (see Contracts Act § 4(1), Act of Congress - Contracts Act). A valid contract requires offer, acceptance, consideration, intent, and capacity (see Contracts Act § 4(2)(a)–(e), Act of Congress - Contracts Act). A breach of contract occurs when a party fails to fulfil their contractual obligations (see Contracts Act § 7(1), Act of Congress - Contracts Act).

Here, the Plaintiff made an offer: a chess game with a $100 wager. The Defendant accepted that offer by accepting the chess invitation and playing the game. Consideration existed because both parties undertook the risk of losing $100 and the possibility of winning $100. The parties intended legal relations because the agreement was expressly framed as a wager, rather than a casual or gratuitous promise.

Capacity is not defeated on these facts. Although low playtime may affect capacity in some cases, the amount at issue was minimal, and there is no evidence that either party lacked the capacity to fairly enter into this wager (see Contracts Act § 4(2)(e), § 14(17), Act of Congress - Contracts Act).

Accordingly, the Court finds that a valid contract existed between the parties. The Defendant breached that contract by refusing to pay the Plaintiff the $100 owed after losing the wager.

III. Damages​

The Plaintiff seeks $100 in compensatory damages, $200 in legal fees, and $1,000 in consequential damages.

Compensatory damages restore what the injured party has lost and require proof of pecuniary loss (see Redmont Civil Code Act Part III, § 2(1)(a), § 2(2)(a), Act of Congress - Redmont Civil Code Act). The Plaintiff lost the benefit of the $100 wager. The Court therefore awards $100 in compensatory damages.

The Plaintiff also seeks $200 in legal fees. Legal fees are ordinarily awarded to the prevailing party, and counsel may choose not to receive the otherwise applicable amount where that waiver is communicated to the Court (see Redmont Civil Code Act Part III, § 7(2)(a), § 7(2)(i), Act of Congress - Redmont Civil Code Act). Because Plaintiff’s counsel expressly requested $200 in legal fees, the Court treats that request as a waiver of any higher fee award and awards $200 in legal fees.

The Court denies consequential damages. Consequential damages may be awarded for otherwise incalculable harm, including loss of enjoyment, but such damages must be proven on the balance of probabilities (see Redmont Civil Code Act Part III, § 5(1)(a)(iii), § 5(2)(a), Act of Congress - Redmont Civil Code Act). The claimed loss of enjoyment is not sufficiently supported here. The underlying wager was only $100, the dispute was narrow, and the evidence does not establish a substantial loss of enjoyment or comparable consequential harm. The Court further notes that $100 is a relatively modest sum and can be recovered through ordinary means, including regular server income sources. The Plaintiff’s alleged financial hardship does not, by itself, justify consequential damages on this record.

IV. Order​

The Court finds in favor of the Plaintiff, Volinon, on the breach of contract claim.

The Defendant, Spacebubble78, shall pay:
  1. $100 in compensatory damages to the Plaintiff; and
  2. $200 in legal fees to the Plaintiff’s counsel.
Judgment is entered for the Plaintiff in the total amount of $300.

So ordered.
