I'm wondering if PMS LLP would ever seek a sith as co-counsel- perhaps a massive class action lawsuit for back pay for workers doing overtime on FO super weapons?

Always happy to amuse. Well you get a whistle blower, and then file a suit requesting class cert, including sworn aff.'s that indicate upon information and belief that there are over 100K individuals similarly situated, proposing a putative class, and allow notice to either have them opt in, or opt out. Then fight the inevitable motion to dismiss. Seek oral argument, and then realize the judge is bought and paid for by the FO. Then make sure we get found with contempt in the oral arguments so we can then appeal the contempt finding, and move to recuse. On appeal, contempt is over turned and we get our class cert.- at which point we have to deal with BS discovery nonsense with FO and ediscovery. FO plays ball because they want to maintain trade relations on the world and there is JDX in rem on their property and assest located on Umgul and personal JDX on the diplomats, maybe? Meanwhile the FO is trying to intimidate and threaten our client- which makes us seek sanctions, but proof is lacking. Our client threatens to walk. We have to find protection....
You're right. Protecting the client would need to extend beyond the walls of the courtroom... Sound spicy?

Hello there! Please allow us to introduce ourselves, we are Kassidy Payne, Lindsay Mildhurt, and Stefanie Strange from the law offices of Payne, Mildhurt, & Strange (PMS). This all sounds very intriguing, but the truth is we are just a small law firm dealing with mostly local stuff on Honoghr where our law offices are located. We simply do not have the man power (or woman power as the case may be), or the knowledge of galactic law as a whole, to handle anything on such a grand scale, and the repercussions that may come from it.....especially against a powerhouse like the FO. What guarantee(s) do we have that the FO won't come after us, or the planet we reside on, if we take up your workers most certain just cause? While it would certainly do wonders for our reputations to take on an empire, and actually quite possibly win, we have more than just ourselves/the law firm to think about here. Plus, we kind of like being alive to enjoy the fruits of our labors...just sayin'. : )

Pleased to meet you!
Maybe I should back up a moment. I am a sith lord IC, but the story could still work motive-wise if the sith lord wanted to cause harm to the FO, even from the inside, enough that he would support a client in coming forward. Suppose the sith used the litigation to draw out an element of the FO that the Sith Lord found to be a threat, like the knights of Ren. But to get that kind of attention, the litigation would have to be of big enough scope, like a class action.
Your response is already almost perfect for IC interaction. Say via hologram with a client asking you to take their case, and you trying to explain why suing the FO is a bad idea. I mean if it doesn't sound like an interesting RP, then say so. I don't know anyone in the FO that would stomp on us for wanting to do a litigation story line. It'd be novel. But IC the threat of extrajudicial repercussions would make taking the case more dramatic and kind of an epic undertaking. Classic david v. goliath.
We could make JDX valid in whatever venue (pick a planet you want to write it on) you'd feel comfortable for IC and have a convenient court rule that allows appearances and testimony via encrypted hologram in delicate cases, (request for such measures made via ex parte motion. Probably a similar standard as a preliminary injunction if we wanted to RP writing fictional motions.)
I'd assume rules of civil procedure would be simplified versions of Fed. R. Civ. P. and Fed. R. Evid. as a practical matter; and we could create suitable rules or case law for plot purposes as we went.
I mean we could even RP motions or court orders to justify whatever set up you want: "Now comes before the court, XXX, by and through their attorneys etc etc, with his motion for encrypted appearance via hologram. XXX is of x social class and insignificant means. Defendant is powerful and has a prior history of terrorism, slavery, and unjust war. It is Plaintiff's assertion that Defendant may seek to resolve the present lawsuit via unjust means, thus depriving this court from performing it's duty in enacting a just resolution of this case upon the merits. Plaintiff therefore moves to proceed as Jack Doe, and allow appearances by his attorneys to likewise be entered and filed under seal, with appearances for court by encrypted hologram. In [caselaw] the standard is that Plaintiff has a right to proceed in this fashion because.... whateves [analysis] Conclusion: Plaintiff requests the court grant this motion and any other relief that it deems just and equitable.
Plaintiff [pseudonym] Attorneys 1[redacted] 2[redacted] 3[redacted]
[compliance certification with court rules and Rule 11]

Bedankt for even following, or maybe reading here and there from time to time. I know my husband has already told you the origin of that name. We kept it as a souvenir and just remembrance. Hehe
