In our system of justice, even a werewolf is entitled to legal representation.
Doesn't mean a court will find them to be a person or allow chicken theft because of "culture and tradition". Just means lawyers will do anything to get paid.
- gerdesj 4y agoI take it you mean US rather than our! (OK it needs some work). As it turns out UK law is also case based too. This means it is possible that via a suitably circuitous but sound line of reasoning and a following wind, you can get the legal system to decide on all sorts of things that are not already nailed down directly in written law. If a werewolf has pockets and enough cash in them then they can obviously hire lawyers. I also think that the chicken theft thing might have legs but sheep, cattle or your daughter might get the townfolk out with the pitchforks.
