For one, you have the court system completely wrong to begin with (at least in the United States). If I press criminal charges, the jury cannot find “me” (in this case, the prosecution (i.e., the state)) guilty. All a jury decides is if the defendant is guilty or not (which is the other dude). If this is a civil case, the jury does not decide guilt. They rule in favor for one side or the other, and the penalty is never going to be going to prison (you also have that wrong, you do not get put in jail for the length of ten years as a punishment). The penalty for losing a civil case is monetary and/or an injunction.

Two, where the hell do you come up with these threads?
