It was the final day of the court case, read the transcript to see if I was guilty or innocent:
____________________________________________________
Security Personal: All rise for the Palps!
Palpatine: No, no, no, no, no! That is too informal, Palpatine is just fine. Well lets get started; we are here today to hear the verdict for the case of General Grievous versus the family of Kaht Argar. Members of the Jury what is your verdict?
Jury Announcer: We have voted over the last couple of days, a task which is not easy for a small case yet alone a case as big as thi –
Palpatine: Get on with it already, the suspense is killing me!
Jury Announcer: Ok, ok! The voting was close but we have found the Defendant NOT GUILTY on the charges of murder.
[Sighs of relief mixed with cries of outrage are heard coming from the crowd]
Jury Announcer: However in the light of the testimony of the Messenger we have found Grievous GUILTY of Improper Corpse Disposal, as well as trespassing on the Sanctioned Area on Tatooine!
Grievous: You can’t do this; this was about murder not corpse disposal regulations!
Palpatine: Order in the court! [Whack! Whack! Whack!] I hereby declare General Grievous cleared of the account of murder but sentence him to 50 hours of community service for the Hutts on Tatooine for trespass! [Whack!]
[Grievous sits there stunned as does the majority of the crowd]
Grievous: Jury Announcer, may I inquire into what votes were cast?
Jury Announcer: This is highly irregular but here’s how the voting went: Eight votes guilty; five votes not guilty; ten votes Barely Not Guilty.
Security Personal: You may now leave the court!
[Everyone slowly walks away]

Well… 50 hours of community service is that bad, even if it is with the Hutts, you never know I might just visit my friends on Survivor while I’m there.
I had 50 hours of community service once for walking across the railroad crossing while the gates were down. A little old lady, too. I learned my lesson, though.
