Host Savek says:
All; FOr those mot familiar with these proceedings this Is a Board of Inquiry, we are 
more interested in finding the root cause of the problems that occurred,  only then will 
we decide the disposition of the officers /personnel  in question. Is this understood ?

Captain_Myrya says:

CTO_KBeth says:
::realizes that her mind had wandered and snaps up to attention hoping no one noticed::

Batlock says:
::nods::

EO_Merna says:
::Blinks rapidly, trying to keep the tears from falling.  Then nods to the Admiral.::

Host Savek says:
All: If there are proceedures that are lacking or that contributed to the actions that 
transpired , then those may need to be altered

MO_Braxton says:
@::figures many of the crew will be watching the "spectacle" but would rather not watch::

Cmdr_Nalan says:

Host Savek says:
::takes out a fresh pad of paper and a pen ::

XO_Hawkes says:
::Grins slightly for Sarah, then looks back to the front of the court::

OPS_DeShay says:
@CMO:How long do you think the trial will last?

FCO_Nichols says:
~~CTO~~ I know the feeling.  Let's see what happens.  These three men need to feel the repercusions of murdering 10 people.  We've all been dealing with it for weeks.

LTJG_Stone says:
::Walks to the front of the table::...................Members of the Board to day we are here to determine what exactlt happened abpord the USS Delphyne and to determine if the Acussed crew men are to Blame

CMO_Lea says:
@OPS: I'm afraid I don't know. We've never had one before.

Captain_Myrya says:
::keeps her eyes on Stone::

EO_Merna says:
::Finally controls his feelings, and opens his eyes to listen to Lt. Stone.::

LTJG_Stone says:
Board:The list of charges against these men clearly show a lack of caution care and responsibility on there behalf and there Commanding officers

Cmdr_Nalan says:
::draws his attention to Stone::

OPS_DeShay says:
@CMO: Lets hope for the best ::Smiles::

Host BrianD says:
ACTION: Laurel & Hardy attempt to be still while in dress uniform and shackled.

CSO_Tarrez says:
::sense the slight change in Merna and turns a little of her attention to the proceedings::

Host BrianD says:
ACTION: They still rattle

LTJG_Stone says:
Board: I believe that the loss of 10 members of this crew is was a rather harsh price to pay

EO_Merna says:
::Knows he's not directly responsible for the deaths of "The Ten", but still feels responsible because they were under his command.  Looks over to Laurel and Hardy shaking his head.  Then turns back to Stone.::

Batlock says:
::looks at L&H with a look saying calm down...::

Captain_Myrya says:
::looks over at Laurel and Hardy::

Host BrianD says:
ACTION: Ltjg Picatuney slips late into his chair at table beside MR.Batlock's seat. 
Picatuney is slightly smug

LTJG_Stone says:
Board: The evidence and testimony that you will see and hear today will more trhan show that all of the Defendants have responsibility for the loss of these lives people that had familys back on Earth and on this ship

Host Savek says:
::Makes a note " Who was in charge of this pair?" and under it "No Supervision ?"::

Batlock says:
::glares at Picatuney::

LTJG_Stone says:
Board: And that it will also show that the only clear conclusion is that these men are Guilty

Captain_Myrya says:
::looks over at the Admiral as his pen scratches on the paper, and then back at Stone::

CMO_Lea says:
@::Smiles slightly and steps out of the halted turbolift, onto the bridge and motions toward the Operation's console, on the back wall of the other side:: Your new home.

FCO_Nichols says:
::listens carefully to Stone::

Captain_Myrya says:
::notes the late arrival of Picatuney::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::looks over at the late arriving Picatuney and notices his smug look..she glares at him::

CMO_Lea says:
<OPS:>

Host Savek says:
::adds to the list: "Are there others who need to have charges brought?" ::

LTJG_Stone says:
Board: Today you will get nothing but the facts and that the facts are very grim...... Thank you......::Sits Down::

EO_Merna says:
::Leans down and quickly wipes a tear.  Then looks over to Picatuney, shaking his head.  Sighs softly, unheard.  Looks back to Lt Stone, and then to the board.::

Captain_Myrya says:
::silently moves her pad towards her and taps out some notes onto it::

Host CO_Lynam says:
::Sees Picatuny arrive and notes the look on his face. Thinks "Uh oh, looks like 
somebody made a deal"::

OPS_DeShay says:
@::Walks over to the OPS station:: CMO: This all looks new.

Host Savek says:
::looks over to the Defense Table ::Batlock , You have an opening Statement ?

CSO_Tarrez says:
::feels her anger at the threesome start to rise::

Batlock says:
::pours a glass of water for himself and stands up::

OPS_DeShay says:
@::Activates the OPS console::

FCO_Nichols says:
::senses that Batlock is quite nervous and almost feels sorry for him::

Captain_Myrya says:
::notices the looks of the other officers in the room, looks away as not to be swayed by their emotions::

CTO_KBeth says:
::leans over and whispers tsarcastically:: FCO: This ought to be good...

FCO_Nichols says:
~~CTO~~ Poor guy, I'd feel bad if he was on our side.

FCO_Nichols says:
CTO: ::mutters softly:: Yeah, really.

CMO_Lea says:
@OPS: It's not especially. Our last refit was a few years ago. But Commander Hawkes and Captain Lynam always took special pride in the area, I believe.

CSO_Tarrez says:
::knows that she needs to control her emotions if she is to be of any help to Merna::

Batlock says:
Board: We are here today in the name of justice. But, my clients have had so many charges leveled at them that have unfair bases and have been forced into this courtroom today for circumstances that were not their doing.

EO_Merna says:
::Turns his attention to Batlock.::

Host Savek says:
::Raises an eyebrow::

LTJG_Stone says:
::Grins::

XO_Hawkes says:
::Tries not to think about what will happen if they get off::

Captain_Myrya says:
::attention on Batlock as he goes into the regular "my client is innocent routine"::

LTJG_Stone says:
::Turns and smiles at the Del Crew::

Batlock says:
Board: For the incredible effort that Picatuney, Laurel, and Hardy exerted on the USS Delphyne, they have been dragged to this courtroom to try to plead for their lives and their careers. The loss of ten crewmembers of the Delphyne is irreplacable, but destroying the lives of people who are as innocent as those who lost their lives is unjust.

FCO_Nichols says:
::whispers:: XO/CTO: That's true.  They didn't fix anything.

CTO_KBeth says:
::wonders if defense attorneys' noses grew when they lied like that old Earth tale of the wooden boy::

CMO_Lea says:
@::While the ensign is busy trying out his new 'toys,' keys into sickbay's controls and rummages around the status down there::

OPS_DeShay says:
@CMO:They came through OPS then?

CMO_Lea says:
@::On an adjacent display, checks on which officers are still onboard the Delphyne::

Host CO_Lynam says:
::Remains impassive as batlock goes through his spiel::

Batlock says:
Board: I will present to you the facts of this trial and allow you to judge the fate of these three faithful Starfleet officers. Thank you. ::sits down, taking a drink a little too late::

EO_Merna says:
::Hears... More relives the few moments he talked with Crewman Naka.  Sighs loudly, then takes a deep breath.::

Host Savek says:
::Nods:

Host BrianD says:
ACTION: Ltjg Picatuney smiles insincerely at the Board

Host Savek says:
Stone: You have your first witness ?

CMO_Lea says:
@OPS: Yes.  Captain Lynam's first assignment was OPS here, and Commander Hawkes began as a tactical officer, then transfered to OPS...::Thinks:: perhaps a year and a half ago?

Captain_Myrya says:
::raises an eyeborw at Picatuney at his Cheshire smile::

Cmdr_Nalan says:
::thinks its getting knee deep in here::

OPS_DeShay says:
@::Does a basic system diagnostic::CMO:Looks like I have so big boots to fill.

Batlock says:
::puts a hand to his head::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::raises her chin with resoluation at the Ltjg::

OPS_DeShay says:
<Some>

LTJG_Stone says:
Board: The prosecution wishes to Call CO Lynam to the stand

XO_Hawkes says:
::shifts nervously::

Host CO_Lynam says:
::Stands up and walks over to the stand::

Batlock says:
::whispers:: Picatuney: Are you that heartless?

EO_Merna says:
::Shifts in his seat, then watches his Capatin.::

Captain_Myrya says:
::watches as Lynam moves to the stand. she picks up her padd again::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::sees the CO stand and walk towards the stand... smiles for support::

CMO_Lea says:
@::Nods a bit, with a knowing smile:: OPS: Yes, so it seems.   ::Taps her commbadge and speaks almost as if catching someone in an illicit act:: *MO*: Doctor Braxton?

Batlock says:
::watches the CO::

Batlock says:
<CNS> ::watches his CO walk to the stand, silently wishes him luck::

EO_Merna says:
::Looks over to the CSO and forces a smile as his eyes are watering.  Then reaches for her hand.::

MO_Braxton says:
@::takes her feet of her desk and sits up, puts her PADD down:: *CMO* Dr. Braxton here what is it Sir ?

Host CO_Lynam says:
::Runs cold eyes across the defense table, then waits for Stone to begin::

OPS_DeShay says:
@CMO: Well I'm a little bit hungry,What to grab a bite to eat? Since you know were the galley is. ::Smiles and Winks::

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: Will you please state your name for this proceding

CSO_Tarrez says:
::feels the EO's hand and grabs it and squeezes it...she smiles and nods in such a way as to tell him that it will be ok::

EO_Merna says:
::Smiles and then sighs deeply, but quitely as he turns back to the board, his CO and Stone.::

Host CO_Lynam says:
STONE: Captain Fox Lynam, Commanding officer, U.S.S. Delphyne.

Host BrianD says:
<Picatuney>: :whispers to Batlock: Of course not , i am sad now that I know of the 
deathes

Captain_Myrya says:
::looks over at Pictuney::

Batlock says:
::whispers acidly:: Picatuney: Then look like it unless you want to live the rest of your life in a nuthouse

EO_Merna says:
::Smiles sadly, but with pride at hearing his Captain.::

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: Can you tell us the orders you recieved on 10012.10

CMO_Lea says:
@OPS: Sure, I suppose so. Deck three is next anyway.

Host BrianD says:
ACTION: Picatuney breaks wind but tries to make as if Laurel did it

XO_Hawkes says:
::Closes his eyes and holds his breath for a moment::

FCO_Nichols says:
::catches a wiff of something unpleasant and feels her stomach turn::

Batlock says:
::breathes through his mouth and thinks "how did I get saddled with this case?"::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::stares at Merna for a moment after he turns back... feels a tear form in her eye and quickly removes it with her other hand::

Batlock says:
<CNS> ::poor Batlock...::

CMO_Lea says:
@*MO*: I'm headed to the mess hall with the new Ensign De'Shay. Since you were busy earlier, and everyone else is at the trial, would you be interested in joining us for a bit?

CSO_Tarrez says:
::turns back to the proceedings still holding Merna hand for support::

Host CO_Lynam says:
Stone: We were ordered to return to Starbase 191 for refit and two weeks shore leave.

MO_Braxton says:
@*CMO*: Sure thing, I'll be right up there.

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: Was there any particular reason that the ship was being refitted

EO_Merna says:
::Grabs his Duty PADD and taps a message to the Star Bases' Chief Engineer, asking them to increase the air flow in the courtroom.::

MO_Braxton says:
@::stands up and exits her office, in passing:: Rynle: Your in charge of Sickbay. ::exits sickbay::

OPS_DeShay says:
@::Heads into the turbolift::

Captain_Myrya says:
::taps on her pad quietly::

CMO_Lea says:
@::Follows Grail into the turbolift:: Turbolift: Deck three.

Host CO_Lynam says:
Stone: No.  It is standard procedure to conduct a comprehensive engineering exam 
and perform the more complex maintenance tasks at least once a year.  There were 
no real problems on the Delphyne I was aware of.

EO_Merna says:
::Forces a smile and nods.::

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: So your ship had no damage and there was nothing wrong with it at the time you were ordered back

MO_Braxton says:
@::walks down the corridor into the turbolift::  TL: Deck 3 

Host Savek says:
::Makes note to have the records from the CEO and OPS Officers that were sent to the Starbase subpeonaed::

XO_Hawkes says:
::listened intently to the questioning::

Host CO_Lynam says:
STONE: That is correct, aside from minor discrepancies such as a malfunctioning 
replicator or a broken sonic shower, the ship was fine.

XO_Hawkes says:
<listens>

Host Savek says:
::adds to the notes : Also the records of the starbase::

CTO_KBeth says:
::starts to imagine what sort of punishment would be fitting for the 'defendents'::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::looks at the board and tries to judge their character...after all she thought "It is their character that will judge the 3's character::

FCO_Nichols says:
::looks at K'Beth thinking about the "hot grapefruit juice" incident::

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: So the ship was just coming in for a standard refit then

CMO_Lea says:
@::Heads out of the turbolift and down the corridor toward the messhall::

Host CO_Lynam says:
STONE: Yes.

MO_Braxton says:
@::taps foot, the TL finally arrives at deck 3::

OPS_DeShay says:
@::Follows theCMO::

CTO_KBeth says:
::eyes the 3 defendents and starts to calculate how much oil would be needed per their combined body mass for boiling::

CMO_Lea says:
@::Makes a mental note that she's been spending waaaay too much time in the meshall lately...maybe she should try to seem more boring::

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: How long have you been the Captain of your ship

Captain_Myrya says:
::sits back in her chair::

Host CO_Lynam says:
STONE: Four months tomorrow.

EO_Merna says:
::Starts to tap his finger on his Duty PADD, then finally realizes that he's making some noise.  Stops and blushes slightly, a bit embarresed.::

Host BrianD says:
ACTION: The chains rattle as Mr.Hardy attempts to scratch his nose

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: Only four months....And in that four months how many times would you say that your ship has taken major damage

XO_Hawkes says:
::wonders where the PADD beeping was coming from?::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::hearing some chains rattle she turn towards the 3::

Host CO_Lynam says:
Stone: None.

Batlock says:
::reaches over and scratches Hardy's nose for him before he makes anymore noise::

CMO_Lea says:
@::Walks into the messhall and leads De'Shay to a table near the center with four chair around it::

CTO_KBeth says:
::hears Merna's tapping and looks over at him inquiringly.  Notices his blushing and gives him a little smile and an encouraging wink::

XO_Hawkes says:
::decides the Bloodlust must not have counted::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::smiles at Hardy uselessness::

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: And you have had no major malfunction onboard until after the refit is that correct

MO_Braxton says:
::comes upon the doors to the messhall, her first time there since arriving on the ship.  Enters and spots the CMO, the Ensign with her presumingly being Mr. DeShay::

XO_Hawkes says:
::crosses his arms. Tries to get comfortable::

Host CO_Lynam says:
STONE: That is correct.

EO_Merna says:
::Smiles at the CTO and then turns back to his Captain.::

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: How would you Rate your crew CO

OPS_DeShay says:
@CMO: Thanks. Is this Starbase very busy?

Cmdr_Nalan says:
::sits quietly listening to the questioning of the Capt. Lynam::

MO_Braxton says:
@::walks over to the CMO::

EO_Merna says:
::Nods his agreement with his Captain.::

CMO_Lea says:
@::Spots Alyia and smiles:: MO: Ahh...  Doctor Braxton, this is Ensign Grail De'Shay, new Operations Officer.   OPS: Ensign De'Shay, Doctor Alyia Braxton, Second of Sickbay.

Host CO_Lynam says:
Stone: I'd say they are pretty close to perfect.  There's always room for improvement, 
but I'd give them a 90 or a 95 efficiency rating.

OPS_DeShay says:
@MO: Pleasure to meet you Doctor. ::Holds out hand to shake::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::wishes that Hardy's itch may become permanent::

FCO_Nichols says:
~~CTO~~ 90%?  Geez, girl, what did we do wrong? ::smiles at K'Beth::

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: So as the Captain you would absolutly trust your life and your ship to any one of them at any moment

MO_Braxton says:
::shakes his had firmly:: OPS: A pleasure.

Host CO_Lynam says:
Stone: I do every time we go out Lieutenant.

CTO_KBeth says:
~~FCO~~: Maybe that big hole that we let get blown into the port side lowered our rating just a tad.  ::grins::

Captain_Myrya says:
::she certainly hopes he does::

Host Savek says:
::considering doodling on the pad ::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::beams with pride::

Captain_Myrya says:
::wonders if the Admiral would care to have dinner with her later....::

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: Can you tell the Board what day the refit started and when it ended

FCO_Nichols says:
~~CTO~~ But that wasn't my fault.  I'm not in charge of the shields. ::grins widely::

Captain_Myrya says:
::sits up straighter as teh questions start to near the subject matter::

Batlock says:
<CNS> ::smiles at what the CO said::

CMO_Lea says:
@::Glances at De'Shay and Braxton a few times, then mentally shrugs and pulls out a chair, taking a seat and motioning for a waiter:: OPS: Rather so.

EO_Merna says:
::Looks down at his PADD and brings up the data, shakes his head at remembering.  Then looks back up to his Captain and the board.::

MO_Braxton says:
@::takes a chair and sits down::

CTO_KBeth says:
~~FCO~~: Fine...boy, let one little hull breach happen and I never hear the end of it. It's not like it destroyed anything important....sheesh!

Host CO_Lynam says:
Stone: From 10012.15 till 10012.29.

Cmdr_Nalan says:
::looks over at Myrya briefly::

OPS_DeShay says:
@::Sits down:: CMO: Just curious, I just happen to notice 7 ships arrive while I was on the OPS consle for those couple of minutes. It seemed like a lot.

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: Can you tell the board what kind of malfunctions you experianced after the refit

Captain_Myrya says:
::Scratches an itch on the side of her neck::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::turns quitely to see the rest of her crew and smiles at the bond that they share...she was very luck::

CTO_KBeth says:
::wonders why lawyers always take forever to get to the point.  Figures that they must be paid by the word.::

FCO_Nichols says:
~~CTO~~  Good thing our training mission before Christmas doesn't count huh?

EO_Merna says:
::Brings up the long list of malfunctions on his PADD.  Then looks up to Stone, knowing this part is just a formality.  Wishing it wouldnt take so long.  Sighs a bit loudly in fustration.::

Host CO_Lynam says:
Stone: A multitude of minor malfunctions, more than ever before.  replicators, doors,
 sensor glitches, that kind of thing.  And, of course, the major ones you all know about.

Captain_Myrya says:
::looks ot see how many witnesses are to be called to the stand, also swipes at the top of her head gently.. feels like a fly::

CMO_Lea says:
@OPS: Well, I don't really spend much time on the starbase.  I stick to the Delphyne most of the time.  MO: I think you were there recently, though?

Batlock says:
::looks at the nearest chronometer and sighs::

Cmdr_Nalan says:
::hopes this case don't drag out, has other cases he's working on too::

Batlock says:
::forget dinner::

CTO_KBeth says:
~~FCO~~: I don't know.  I was kind of looking forward to getting a new bridge.

LTJG_Stone says:
Board: I would like to enter into evidence a detailed list of the problems that occured on the Delphyne after the refit

CSO_Tarrez says:
::hears Merna's sigh and turns to see him..notices he is fine for the moment... then looks back at the CO::

CMO_Lea says:
@<Bartender>::Notices the CMO motion and heads toward the CMO, MO, OPS table, pausing Lea's elbow:: CMO/MO/OPS: What can I get you?

Host Savek says:
Stone: So entered

Captain_Myrya says:
::looks at the Admiral begging him with her eyes to get Stone to step up the questions::

OPS_DeShay says:
@Bartender: Root beer please.

XO_Hawkes says:
::suddenly has a new-found respect for writer who make courtroom dramas seem so exciting::

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: Do you believe that there was no other way to vent the plasma the day those 10 men died

MO_Braxton says:
@CMO/OPS: Yes this place has always been rather busy being a "hub" and base or operations for many StarFleet ship including the Delphyne as well as several trading consortiums, including are mutual friends Mackenzie sisters trade group.

Host BrianD says:
ACTION: In the starbase Lounge, a hooded man is examing his padd with illicit video 
and audio lead coming from the courtroom. He sips his tea

Host Savek says:
CO: After you left Starbase did you and your crew run full diagnostics ?

CSO_Tarrez says:
::hears the mention of the 10 and tenses slightly::

Host CO_Lynam says:
STONE: I'm sure that, given enough time, my engineers could have done so.  
However, given the time we had.  No.

CMO_Lea says:
@::At De'Shay's order, smiles slightly...he'll justhave  to meet Nichols and Hawkes::

OPS_DeShay says:
@MO:Thanks, I guess OPS paranioa is setting in. ::Chukles::

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: Thank you Captain; thats all you may step down

CMO_Lea says:
@::Glances at Braxton:: MO: Did you say MacKenzie?

MO_Braxton says:
@Bartender: A Coke, 12 ounce glass bottle chilled, please

LTJG_Stone says:
CO: No more questions

MO_Braxton says:
@::nods at the CMO's question::

Host CO_Lynam says:
Savek: Level 1 diagnostics?  That I am not sure of sir.  I do know that, following the 
myriad of minor malfunctions, full systems diasgnostics were run.

Host Savek says:
CO: In the p-ast I have found them "useful"  Next question :  Did you send the 
Starbase repair yards a list of things from your departments that required repairs ?

EO_Merna says:
::Looks to Savek and nods.::

Batlock says:
::stands up, finally::

CMO_Lea says:
@Bartender: Usual.  MO: I don't suppose any family of Elizabeth MacKenzie Jiosa?

CSO_Tarrez says:
::makes note to run a Level 1 diagnostic each time that the SB "fixes" anything::

CMO_Lea says:
@<Bartender>::Nods to each in turn and heads back to the bar::

Host CO_Lynam says:
Savek: Yes sir.  As usual.  Accompanying it was a standing order from our Chief 
Engineer that no major repairs were to be conducted without his approval.

CTO_KBeth says:
::notes down that a full diagnostic was run on several systems but they were altered to fool the computer::

Host Savek says:
CO: I want your Operations officer to send us a copy of that repair list  with the 
attachment, if you please

Captain_Myrya says:
;:nods at the Admirals request::

Cmdr_Nalan says:
::adjust himself in his seat to get confortable again::

MO_Braxton says:
@CMO: Yes, her (Lizs) sister opened a trading company when she got married it success has been enourmous and nearly unequaled they have offices there on SB 191, as well as several ships avaliable for ::pauses for a bit:: "special needs"

Host CO_Lynam says:
Savek: I believe DA Stone has that item in his exhibits.

Host Savek says:
::turns to Batlock : Batlock: You have questions ?

Batlock says:
::nods:: Savek: I do

Captain_Myrya says:
Savek: If I may .. may we have the list from the SB as well showing the repairs they were asked to perform, to compare?

Batlock says:
::waits for permission to proceed since Savek bothered to ask if he had questions::

EO_Merna says:
::Pauses a moment, wondering why the board dosen't seem to have all the data.  Furrows his eyebrows in wonder, then leans to the CSO and whispers very quitely.:: CSO: Shouldn't they have all that data already?

Host Savek says:
::Slides the pad towards her :: I am going to subpeona their records as well, including personnel info

Captain_Myrya says:
::nods and takes padd::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::leans towards the EO:: EO: ::whispers:: I would think so.

Host Savek says:
Batlock: Proceed

Batlock says:
Savek: Thanks

Batlock says:
CO: Hello Captain. I was wondering if you had ever done anything going against or not quite with whoever told you what to do... just out of curiousity and everything

Host BrianD says:
ACTION: Hooded man presses buttons another device obscured by his clothing

Host CO_Lynam says:
Batlock: Could you be a little more specific?

Captain_Myrya says:
::looks at Batlock::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::looks at Batlock and does not like where he is going with that question::

XO_Hawkes says:
::remembers Lynam beeing in the brig when Hawkes and Lea came aboard::

Batlock says:
CO: Have you ever acted without sanction?

Batlock says:
CO: Acted officially I should say

EO_Merna says:
::Raises his eyebrows, wondering what Batlock is getting at.::

Cmdr_Nalan says:
::listens with interest::

LTJG_Stone says:
Board: Objecton

Batlock says:
::turns to Stone::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::remember when the CO punched out that Vulcan after the training mission::

Batlock says:
::I didn't object to HIM::

Captain_Myrya says:
::knows every Officer has acted with out sanction at least once.. waits to see what htis officer has done::

LTJG_Stone says:
Board: The actions the CO has taken under certain conditions is not the issue here

Batlock says:
::rolls his eyes::

Captain_Myrya says:
::nods as she agrees somwhat::

MO_Braxton says:
@OPS: So is this your first mission out of the Academy ?

Batlock says:
Board: That was my first question... if I may be allowed to proceed, I can get to the point

Host Savek says:
Stone, This is not a trial, and is not bound by formal rules of evidence

Captain_Myrya says:
::looks to the Admiral to decide::

CTO_KBeth says:
::is glad that she wasn't asked that question::

Host Savek says:
Batlock : Proceed

OPS_DeShay says:
@MO: Yes it is. I got into starfleet a little late in life.

Batlock says:
::nods:: CO: Don't worry about it, Captain... we've all done something wrong... I just want to know if that applies to you too

CMO_Lea says:
@<Bartender>::Brings a tray of drinks out, handing a tall frosty rootbeer to DeShay, a chillled cola to Braxton, and an icewater, with lemon slice, to Lea::

LTJG_Stone says:
Board: Objection

Batlock says:
::turns to Stone again::

Host Savek says:
Stone: What objection ?

Captain_Myrya says:
::stomach gurgles::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::sighs hard::

OPS_DeShay says:
@Bartender: Thank you. ::Takes a sip::

LTJG_Stone says:
The defense is totally missing the point here the CO is not on trial nor the decisions he has made

XO_Hawkes says:
::tries to take some satisfaction at being able to observe the great legal system of the federation in action.::

MO_Braxton says:
::The Coke has come as programmed, with the bottle cap still on, as preprogrammed into the replicator to preserve the fizz::

Batlock says:
Board: I'm still on my first question

Host BrianD says:
ACTION: Hooded man nods as if in communication with someone

Captain_Myrya says:
::looks at Stone, the Admiral has ruled on that objection already::

Captain_Myrya says:
<admiral>

Batlock says:
::rookie...::

Host Savek says:
Stone: Mr Stone this is not a formal Courts Martial and is not bound by evidentiary 
rules, it is instead bound by the rules of discovery

CMO_Lea says:
@<Bartender>::Nods to each:: CMO/MO/OPS: Ladies, sir..  ::Heads back to the bar::

XO_Hawkes says:
::Sees one of the bailiffs staring at him...and remembers the guy from his brief stint in the brig for the whole O'Reilley thing::

EO_Merna says:
::Sighs and starts tapping his finger on his seat.::

Host Savek says:
CO: Captain , an admission that you have made an error in the past is sufficient though
 , not it's nature

Host BrianD says:
ACTION: Another hooded man lets himself down from his hiding place above the 
security officers manning the starbase shields controls

Host CO_Lynam says:
Batlock: :: Yes, I have acted contrary to orders.  Without Sanction as you put it.

XO_Hawkes says:
::wishes the bailliff would concentrate on someone else for a while::

MO_Braxton says:
@::'bites' the bottlecap off the coke, pockets it for collection ans takes a drink::

Captain_Myrya says:
::looks to Lynam wondering what secrets the man has.. and wonders too if he is married::

Batlock says:
CO: Thank you

Host Savek says:
::wonders if this "gentleman" will also beat around the bush ::

Host BrianD says:
ACTION: 2nd hooded man quietly disables sec guard , killing him without a sound

CTO_KBeth says:
::starts to hear voices and gets a little worried until she realizes that her comm badge is turned up a little too loud.  Turns it down with a small sigh of relief::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::still can't get over why P is so smug::

OPS_DeShay says:
@::Drinks down the Root beer::

Batlock says:
CO: Have you ever committed an action without sanction that was pretty bad? Bad enough to rival the reason that my clients are allegedly here for today?

Host CO_Lynam says:
Batlock: No.

FCO_Nichols says:
~~CTO~~ What do you think would happen if we put those three in a room with all of the Betazoids on our ship?

LTJG_Stone says:
Board: I dont see the relevancy in this line of questioning in relation to the repair work that was done on this ship

Host BrianD says:
ACTION: 2nd hooded man communicates with first hooded man

Batlock says:
CO: What about bad enough to have a courtmartial for?

CSO_Tarrez says:
::pulls out her PADD::

Host Savek says:
Batlock: Are you getting somewhere with this line of questioning?

EO_Merna says:
::Mumbles under his breath that the CO probably didnt kill anyone.::

Batlock says:
Savek: Just want to make one simple point evident

OPS_DeShay says:
@CMO: I don't know. Don't you think its kind of strange when 7 civilian ships show up at the same time?

Batlock says:
Savek: I won't take nearly as long as Mr. Stone... unless he objects again

Host CO_Lynam says:
Batlock: Are you asking if I have doen anything comarable to killing ten engineers, or 
to sending a starship with nearly 500 people in it into a star?  No, nothing like that.  
::Smiles grimly::

CTO_KBeth says:
~~FCO~~: I was thinking more along the lines of a room full of very hungry, large targs.

Batlock says:
CO: But what about something deserving of a courtmarshal?

FCO_Nichols says:
~~CTO~~ Oooh, good idea.  Isn't there a Klingon delegation due here?

CSO_Tarrez says:
::hears Merna mumble something but her paranoid brain had started to click in::

CMO_Lea says:
@::Checks her wrist chronometer and glances to Braxton:: OPS: Not really. Unusual timing.  OPS/MO: If you'll excuse me a brief time, while you enjoy your drinks. I forgot to file some medical transfers...  I'll be back shortly.

Captain_Myrya says:
::sees the fire in Lynams eyes about this line of questioning::

CTO_KBeth says:
::chuckles quietly at Sarah::

Host CO_Lynam says:
Batlock: I have never been courtmartialed.  If I had done something deserving of one
I would have been.  Right?

FCO_Nichols says:
::looks over at the CSO::

MO_Braxton says:
@CMO: Ok Sir.

Batlock says:
CO: Are you absolutely sure?

EO_Merna says:
::Starts to feel a bit irritated and stilfes a groan.::

Batlock says:
CO: Think carefully...

Captain_Myrya says:
::wishes Batlock would spit it out.. if he has something to say then let them know::

LTJG_Stone says:
Board: I dont see where this is going

Batlock says:
CO: I don't want to bring up any specific incidents...

MO_Braxton says:
@OPS: Has the CMO already shown you the main points of interest on the ship ?

CMO_Lea says:
@::Starts to stand from her chair and smiles oddly:: MO: Just don't let Ensign De'Shay get lost.  ::Turns for the exit, leaving her water on the table, untouched::

CTO_KBeth says:
::thinks that this lawyer is getting paid double per word, triple for each lengthy pause and quadruple for each question that he can rephrase 15 times::

Host CO_Lynam says:
Batlock: ::Sighs:: So, you want to hear the tale of the great rescue then do you?  Well, 
it is in my service record, as well as a detailed report that is on file with the JAG office 
right here at SB191.  I won't take up the court's time re-telling it.

OPS_DeShay says:
@MO:Excuse me a moment. *Bridge* ENS Glenn this is De'Shay.

Captain_Myrya says:
::thinks stone is attractive then notes his few pips .. oh well::

EO_Merna says:
::Clears his throat and then quietly taps at his PADD, sending a message to MO Braxton, that he's taken care of her request personally.::

Host Savek says:
Batlock: Mr Batlock, unless you can show some relavance to the incidents in question, you are just wasting time, and I would hate that

Batlock says:
Savek: And I'm almost to my point

CMO_Lea says:
@::Walks down the corridor, into the turbolift:: Turblift: Deck seven.

Host BrianD says:
ACTION: 2nd hooded man presses buttons to disable the shields or at most to delay 
the time the shields can be raised from ops by 3 minutes

Host Savek says:
::wonders if he could arrange with his friend on the KHC for a vacation for Mr Batlock 
...on Rura Penthe ::

LTJG_Stone says:
::Notices CO Myrya watching him and smiles at her::

MO_Braxton says:
@::Recieveed message while DeShay is distracted. Sends a note back saying thank you and wondering if there is time after the Inquiry if he would like to get toghther sometime::

Batlock says:
CO: What were the actions of Laurel and Hardy in their negligence in performing some of their duties? Would mistakes be a term we could use?

CSO_Tarrez says:
::quickly types a message to Master Chief Harris...asking him to attempt to obtain access to the SB visuals and determine where P had been prior to the hearing::

OPS_DeShay says:
@<ENS Glenn> *De'Shay* Bridge here.

CTO_KBeth says:
::stifles a yawn as Batlock seems to ramble on and on over the same question::

XO_Hawkes says:
::begins to wonder if Batlock is stalling, or just slow::

EO_Merna says:
::Manages a smile and sends MO Braxton a message that he would like to, but reminds her that they'll probably be leaving the Star Base as soon as the Inquiry is over. Sighs quitely then turns his attention back to the board.::

CMO_Lea says:
@::Leave the turbolift, enters sickbay, and quickly grabs the PADD off the MO's desk, and heads back out into the corridor::

Host CO_Lynam says:
Batlock: ::Thinks::Nooooooo, I would say mistake misses the mark.  I'd aim for 
negligence myself.

Batlock says:
CO: Committing negligence is a mistake is it not?

Captain_Myrya says:
::tilts her head at Batlock::

CMO_Lea says:
@::Enters the turbolift:: Turbolift: Bridge.

Host CO_Lynam says:
batlock: You didn't ask that.  You asked if I would use the term mistake.  Yes, 
negligence is a gross, careless, dangerous form of mistake.

Host Savek says:
::Shakes his head slightly side to side, sadly ::

OPS_DeShay says:
@*Bridge* Conntact Starbase control and ask them for information about 7 ships that just docked with the starbase.

Cmdr_Nalan says:
::looks at Myrya looking at Batlock::

EO_Merna says:
::Wants to stand up and say that the systems where made to look normal, especially with the work bees, but they didnt operate.  Just shifts nervously in his seat.::

CTO_KBeth says:
::barely restrains herself from jumping up and shouting "get on with it ya bugger!" to Batlock::

Batlock says:
CO: But a mistake... and your incident was a mistake, was it not?

OPS_DeShay says:
@<ENS Glenn>*De'Shay* Yes sir.

Captain_Myrya says:
::thinks.. mistake? a slight error? no. If sure it was more than a mistake::

Host CO_Lynam says:
batlock: No.  it was not.

Host Savek says:
Batlock: That is what this hearing is to determine, if it was an error or negligent, or an 
act of sabotage

EO_Merna says:
::Is getting more and more fustrated as each moment passes.  Takes a deep breath and sighs quietly, trying to control his growing anger at how long this is taking::

OPS_DeShay says:
@*Bridge* I'm on the way up. MO: Excuse me. I going to check this out.

EO_Merna says:
::Mumbles:"Sabotage!" a bit loudly.::

Batlock says:
Savek: Granted... I meant if they were found guilty, though

Captain_Myrya says:
::looks over at Merna frowning::

XO_Hawkes says:
::looks startled towards Merna...then grins::

CSO_Tarrez says:
::hears the EO and nods::

OPS_DeShay says:
@::Gets up and heads to the TL::
