Ministry v. Harry Potter: An Analysis of Wizarding Britain’s Legal System by kitsunerei88
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling, Original Work
14 Oct 2020

Summary
Harry Potter has three canonical trials and many other references to legal processes and systems which are never really explained in their totality. The few glimpses we do see are puzzling: why is Harry being tried before the full WIzengamot? Why does Fudge have such a huge role? What about Umbridge, and how does it all work? It's easy to say that JKR just didn't think of a cohesive legal system (and that may very well be correct), but what happens if we do an analysis of the legal processes shown in Harry Potter?
Or: A lawyer takes on Harry Potter, and discovers that all witches and wizards are noble. Actually.

Summary
Regulus hadn't exactly meant to lie low amongst muggles — when he'd grabbed the Dark Lord's Horcrux he'd meant to destroy it on the spot. When he hadn't been able to, he'd meant to send Kreacher to destroy it. When Kreacher had refused that and dragged them both out of the cave…
Faking his death and going on the run until he could work out how to destroy the Horcrux had been the only real option.

Summary
"Lily, that hairball will not be accompanying us to Vernon's flat. I'm putting my foot down."
Lily laughs humourlessly.
"You can put your foot wherever you'd like," she retorts, delighting in the way Petunia's jaw drops. "I'm not going without Crookshanks!"
"You're acting foolish!" Petunia snaps. "Where else would you go?"
"I'll find my own place," Lily says, barely recognizing the words coming out of her mouth. This time, it's Petunia who laughs.
"Good luck with that," she says, all patronizing.
OR When Petunia offers an ultimatum, Lily finds herself becoming roommates with the last person she ever thought would come to her rescue: Sirius Black. It's the summer of '76, and Lily and her kitten, Crookshanks are moving to Bristol.

“He’s hangin’ in there. Doin’ better.” He says, tone soft but a tad more serious. “I ain’t gonna say he’s fine because he ain’t. But he’s doin’ better.” At least he thought so.
