The "Seinfeld" gang did not deserve jail

"By that logic, I could kill someone, pay a fine, serve fifty years, and I wouldn't have broken a law. It's the same exact logic on a much smaller scale. "First of all he didn't buy a book, he rented it. Of course he was late with by a long shot, but he paid the fine at the end of the episode, and that was the end of it. "Last time I checked, theft is still a crime. "Still wasn't serious enough. "Like I said before, that doesn't make it not a crime. "Technically something like this only goes on a crimnial record is the fine is not paid, so therefore not a crime. "Just because that was the only part addressed in court doesn't mean the other crime didn't occur. Reminder: The gang only served time for breaking the Good Samaritan law. "Actually, they weren't tried just for that once Hoyt knew he was going up against a better lawyer, named Jackie Chiles. If it weren't for Chiles, the gang would not have stood a chance. But because they were going in their rights to get the lawyer they could afford, Hoyt resorted to deceit and lies to try to hurt the gang. Hoyt took this to the next level and made it a case against petty little unpleasant, though legal things. 95% of the cases, like the contest, were not cases of legality. Some of them were actually started by other people, such as the Bubble boy fight, which was started by Donald. George was wrong for saying Moops, but Donald laid his hands on George first. "They were not locked up for their petty childish behavior; the judge only encouraged them to reflect on it. "Last time I checked, when you've got cases against them other than the BS cases (most of which weren't illegal), then you're prosecuting them for more than something they were initially arrested for. "In the first round, you merely said that you'd try to prove that the four did not break any laws, which is untrue. " Those fines Jerry got were all paid. So that clears him. Some of the cases that did indeed happened were not used in court, so it's irrelevant. "In the episode, "The Package," Kramer sent an insured package to Jerry, which contained a broken stereo, with the intent of getting the insurance money"OK, I stand corrected, but last time I checked, Newman only ordered Jerry to pay a fine, which I assume he did. After all if you pay a fine, nothing is posted on your record. "Private recipes are private property. (2) She stole the recipe. She screwed the Soup Nazi illegally. "It wasn't private when the Soup Nazi foolishly left it in his china. It was his negligence and his own foolishness that brought upon his downfall, he must suffer the consequences. Closing argument: here I have successfully refuted what I have said. While I agree that one person's crimes doesn't make the other innocent, I did argue that Newman's crimes were more serious in nature, which my opponent hasn't refuted. He actually agreed with me that Newman did indeed commit crimes. Part of the opening arguement was proving that Newman did more serious things than Jerry and the gang. 95% of the "cases" in the finale were not even illegal to begin, such as the contest, Elaine exposing her nipple. Some of the actual criminal cases were actually fabricated lies: such as the bubble boy, the wig master cases, etc.
