Dear Members of the Court,

Discord has been having severe outages, and given that the evidence is all on discord, it makes delivering evidence difficult.

As a result, the evidence can only be posted if discord permits, so if this goes past a deadline I am requesting and permitting the court to withdraw the posted indictment, till which time we can post it again meeting all the requirements for an indictment.

Signed,
New Rogernomics,
Chief Operating Officer
