capt_marshmallow & Fhippo v. Twerkish
This case occurred following accusations that Twerkish had used a weapon called 'LightBringer' to murder capt_marshmallow. The accused was tried in the court of Atopolis and the Judge presiding over this case was The Supreme Court Justice Mineraider. The prosecution represented by Attorney Skyguy707 argued the case against Attorney Dr_InkBoy. The prosecution argued that the defendant had brought the murder weapon into the courtroom but after expert inspection it was deemed to merely be a 'Nerf Gun'. Without a murder weapon, the prosecution brought forward the head of one of the victims which stated who had slayed him. In response to this evidence, Twerkish presented his own head which clearly stated he was slain by a member of the prosecution. The prosecution's case had almost fallen apart after a short period of scrutiny, however Twerkish stumbled and stated that he had killed the victim. He attempted to backtrack but it was too late the court had heard his statement. Twerkish then pleaded guilty and outlined a flurry mitigating circumstances, claiming to not be mentally competent enough to understand what had happened. He presented Doctors notes and medical information to support his claims which confirmed the Mens Rea was not present when the alleged crime was committed. As a result, the Court mandated he attend 2 years of therapy at the 'Ram Ranch'. The charges of Murder were dismissed and he was assigned a court appointed Therapist.

Cactsus_ v. T_ea
It was decided to take a debate over whether fatal injury on someone who entered your house should be legal or not. In the case, BeBroccoli judged the case. After multiple minutes of debate, it was decided that it would be legal to cause injury to anyone trespassing, however fatal injury would only be legal if injury was caused to the home owner or items over the value of $1000 total were being stolen.

BeBroccoli v. Cactsus_
After BeBroccoli began placing signs of a popular song's lyrics on public property, mayor of the town Cactsus_ stabbed him three times in the chest, despite BeBroccoli yelling for him to stop. In the following case, argument ensued between the two about laws surrounding vandalism, griefing, and murder laws in Ato. The primary statements by Cactsus_ were about how vandalism should not be permitted in Ato due to common sense, and it should be defined as griefing. The main statements by BeBroccoli were about the legality of the murder, stating that previous cases Cactsus_ v. T_ea and capt_marshmallow & Fhippo v. Twerkish shows clearly defined rules against murdering individuals outside of certain circumstances, which were not met. In the end, judge PixelG007 decided that Cactsus_ was required to give a formal apology to BeBroccoli, while BeBroccoli would be required to remove all signs placed by him on public property. As well, griefing was defined as "Unwanted or unnecessary modification of other's property, malicious or otherwise", with different punishments given depending on intent. The aftermath of the case was also important, with Cactsus_ stating the case was "unorganized, unprofessional, and unnecessary". Due to this, he mandated all Atopolis court cases were to be approved by himself, PixelG007, or Jarl Shark. As well, for going against him, Cactsus removed BeBroccoli from his city council.

The defendant Yungly asked Godfrey Marshal to show evidence proving his innocence. Mr. Marshal showed the documents as he did more evidence proving the conspiracy came to show as the prosecutor brought a point that Yungly had made preparations to revolt even asking Mr Marshal to buy weapons even if that's not illegal. If used against the government in a coup, then it would be illegal. They continued to discuss. Once the judge saw that enough evidence had been seen. He called the jury (Cyrusplayz, UniqueHyphen, Shdwbro) giving them a few minutes to decide. While the jury decided Yungly came out with a threat saying if he lost this case he would legitimately murder someone once things started to heat up he backed down.
