This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

I mean strictly speaking by using a language other than the native one of the court you were conspiring with your mother.

Conspiring is just planning or acting jointly with another in secret in its most mundane form.

If your hiding your conversation by changing the language that is text book boring mundane conspiracy.

Even if you didn't intend to hide it, you were in fact doing so. It's entirely understandable for a court to demand you speak the language of the court or have a translator present to ensure everyone understands.

"the native one of the court" but the US doesn't have an official language

I don't think I was technically in a court room.

It's... okay I'm no laywer, but it felt more like just some court staff reading out / explaining the charges in a small room, it didn't really feel like a court hearing or anything, at least it didn't seem like it.

I honestly was so confused af and wasn't sure what was happening.
