Bangs gavel profusely while yelling to the perfectly silent audience

SILENCE!!!

Ahem... Good news everyone!

Reddit has begun its yearly Best of 2015 Awards!

Here's a link to last year's ceremony award, although in a "what happened at the 2014 ceremony stays at the 2014 ceremony" move there's not much to see anymore. But... Come closer... Closer I said...

It was golden and justicey

How voting will work

This thread will be set to contest mode. This means that all comments will be sorted randomly and no scores will be displayed. There will be 6 top level comments only: 5 categories and 1 general discussion thread.

Any and all discussion needs to be directed below the Discussion top level comment:

This one, yes

^{Comments out of this scheme will be oppressed, trialed, triggered, approved, filed in a triplicate KC§6.9 form, removed and privilege checked.}

Please reply to the top level comment under the category with appropriate links/comments for your nomination. If you see the one you wanted to add please upvote it (this is how you vote on each category). At the end we will check all the vote numbers as an indicator to help us determine the winner in each category.

You may only nominate submissions made in 2015.

Voting will last until January 3, 2016.

Categories

• Trial of the Year

• Best Appearance in a Case

• Awesome Comeback Award

• Top Rookie (Started KarmaCourt'ing in 2015 and rocking)

• Strangest/Silliest Lawsuit

Here is a starting point to search for good posts (top posts from 2015):

Entire year | Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | May | Jun | Jul | Aug | Sep | Oct | Nov | Dec

As for best comebacks you'll have to search deep into the fancily administrative meandering of the Internet's Greatest Judicial System. A beeping sound is heard as a semi backs through the window and dumps dusty documents continuously for 5 minutes; stopping only after the courthouse's doors burst open, sending people and papers flying miles away.

Gold will be awarded to the winner of each category!

Gold will also be awarded to the person who nominated a winner in a category!

Flairs will be awarded to participants!

^{If you nominate yourself, and win, you won't be awarded gold twice, it will be directed toward another people of the Internet Law.}
