It's not fair.

https://monicasmit.substack.com/p/what-is-the-price-of-justice


Recently I represented myself against a team of government lawyers during a 13-day trial over 6 weeks…. and won! That’s great news, isn’t it? But there is a twist that has become far more important to this story than the victory itself.

It will have you asking…what is the price of justice?

Imagine you’ve been wronged by a government body.
Imagine your liberty was taken from you without just cause.
Imagine that no one was willing to take accountability or admit any fault.
Imagine you got offered a measly $15,000 with no private or public vindication.
If you take the money, you have permission to keep asserting that you think you were wronged, but you will never get closure. It will always be ‘your word against theirs’.

Who benefits if you take the deal?
Well, the government benefits because they’re using tax-payer’s money to pay you off anyway and they will avoid public embarrassment or taking accountability.
You win a bit of money and avoid the stress that comes with a long-winded trial.

Who else benefits?...NO ONE!  .......................

It’s crazy. I won but it will cost me $200k for the pleasure of public vindication.

This highlights the injustices of the justice system. Quite shocking.

Don’t worry about me Smiley

My opinion:

Laws were made to make lawyers rich -
not to give justice to ordinary people.

The Govt. always wins -
never try to take them on - they're evil.


My experience:
one of my friends had a court case about his dog.
The lawyer gave a barrister a copy of a short 300 word statement to read out in court.
It was going to cost my friend $1,500 to have it read out.
I offered to do it for free and that was rejected -
the barrister would have been out of pocket.    Roll Eyes
