A Change of Roles

[Cmdr Ayers 0]

Nick steps into the holodeck and glances around the room.  While the Station did have a suite of rooms for a JAG office, Starfleet hadn't gotten around to actually sending one out yet.  And with everything else going on there hadn't been time to put back together the room that would be used during any trials.  So the easiest way to have one ready within a few days was to use the holodeck to simulate one.  Which had been a task Nick had decided to do himself as the Captain had enough to worry about with the Admiralty breathing down the Andorian's neck.

 

      Nick steps up to the bench as he looks around, trying to determine if there needs to be any fixes to the program.  His eyes focus on the set of flags that stand behind the Judge's bench.  When he was originally putting together the program he had the computer include the flags for the powers involved with Aegis which was quite a collection, albeit a small one.  He frowns to himself for a moment then says "Computer, retain just the Federation and Starfleet flags."  The Computer beeps it's acknowledgment and the Klingon, Romulan, Cardassian and Ferengi flags disappear in a swirl of light.  Nick turns and moves to sit down at the Prosecutor's table as he thinks to himself "This is an internal Starfleet matter."

 

      He retrieves a set of Padd's and starts preparing for his assigned role in the trial.  He had sat on two Court-martials before, both times as part of a jury back on Starbase 315 in the BeTau sector.  This time, however, his role was going to be quite a bit different.
