What about the bet to capture Sonic? Tails won, but he was still forced to sing.
Then there's the dome he built. One tunnel by Eggman's robot later, bam! Trophy of Shame.

Haha, good points! I'm surprised Grim did not raise them in court. But to answer:
1: The bet itself, is correct, Tails did win and yet he did have to sing. However one of the things we have to remember is that Tails did leave all his friends stuck in the traps that were meant for Sonic, so while Tails did have to sing, instead of thinking it's Sonic getting out of it, it's Tails' way of making it up to Amy, Knuckles and Sticks. But, this can be taken both ways, but personally, I think it's all fair game here.
2: In that episode, Tails was lucky to even get a trophy in the first place to be completely honest. I mean, he did build a dome to keep out Eggman, but Team Sonic defeats Eggman day in, day out, and they don't receive an award until there 1 000 000th victory (And we know how that turned out.) Something else to point out here, is that it was the villagers of Hedgehog Village, and not Team Sonic that gave Tails the trophy. And to be honest, the villagers, apart from a select few, are butts to Team Sonic anyway, so Tails can't blame his one on his team.

You may (and I do mean may) have made decent responses; but while waiting for the reply, I've come up with a list of complaints for the story as a whole:
1. Why is Tails as violent as he is in this story? The reason he turned dark in D.T.U. in the first place was because of what he saw as mistreatment against him by his friends and the villagers. Here, at any time, he'll turn dark and attempt to brutally kill anyone who even thinks that he could be wrong.
2. The fact Tails becomes that violent seems to be, in my opinion, a way to 'prove' Fixer's points against Shift, Erik, and Tails.
3. Speaking of Shift, why does he get distracted so easily? He has been caught making out with Sienna instead of focusing on the trial. Tails would've had a better chance to win if Winston Payne was his lawyer!
4. The fact that Shift, Sienna, Tails, and Team Sonic are all played by Grim. This sounds like self-sabotage from my point of view. Why would one of his characters try to ruin another one of his character's chance of putting some of his other characters behind bars?
5. Why didn't Zooey show up until after Tails's anger began to fade? Even when Dark Tails was "unleashed", he was still unwilling to hurt Zooey. Couldn't she have calmed him down at any point in the trial? After all,
Shift: Where's Zooey when you need her?6. And oh, I don't know who even played Zooey. If it was Grim or Erik, I see it as further evidence of self-sabotage because she manages to calm Tails down, as I mentioned in #5. If it was you, I see it as further evidence of Dark Tails's violence being used to 'prove' Fixer's points. I say this because Zooey calls Tails "the kindest, and sweetest fox [she] ever met," implying she thinks Tails is better than Dark Tails, especially this version of him. If it was qcherry, I've got nothing to say in response right now.
7. I could have sworn that after Zooey purified Tails, he no longer held ill will towards his friends, nor could he turn dark anymore. This story is implied to take place not long after D.T.U., so how is this possible?
8. What are the morals of this story? "[P]eople are not perfect, but that does not mean you must hate them for it." And, "[E]ven though [people] can be mean, or harsh, it's because they love you." That's what I think they are, anyway. But, how far can this go? I think it could go to the point where Sonic convincing Zooey to pretend to break up with Tails just to see how Tails would react to a breakup could be justified... oops, I probably shouldn't have gone there.
Overall, I see a story with more holes in it than Frank Sahwit's testimonies. But, you can correct me if I'm wrong.

1: I didn't write Tails in this story, so this would be better answered by . All I did was copy and paste what he said in the rp.
2: While this is sort of true, once again, it's not my fault. If wrote Tails in a way that makes it easy for Fixer to state his case, and win, it's more on his side for writing out Tails in such a way. I must also point out that before Tails was released from the MX-4180 Electroplasmatic Capsulator by Knuckles, I said the following (Which was out of the rp btw):
FixersChannel
(I'm laughing at the fact that you guys use Tails as a distraction from providing evidence against me.)
grimlock1997
(It breaks up the case a bit)
FixersChannel
(With Dark Tails drama, instead of Courtroom drama.)
grimlock1997
(It works better )
FixersChannel
(Welp, just means that Tails can't handle the truth. Works in my favour anyway.)
So I did tell them that if they continued to use Dark Tails against me, it works against them, however as you can see, they did it because, in their opinion, Dark Tails drama is better then Courtroom Drama.
3: Ask as I did not write Shift in this story. All I did was copy and paste what was said in the rp.
4: Ask as I did not write Shift, Sienna, Tails or Team Sonic. If he wrote his characters in a way that made it easy for Fixer to win, then that's not my fault.
5: Good point, and it sort of was planned for Zooey to come in after Tails turned Dark the first time, it was not long beforehand that Shift needed to be calmed down by Sienna, and I figured it was too soon into the trial to pull the 'Zooey Card.' I mean, it was case 1/5 at the time. But, if you see Point 2, you can see that Shift prefer the Dark Tails drama, so he continued to use it.
6: I introduced Zooey at the end, but not in the way that you interpreted it. It was mostly because the trial was ending, and Zooey had yet to be used, so by making Zooey enter the courtroom at that time was mainly the last screw on the case, people like Tailooey, and going on from DTU, Zooey would help Tails out in any way.
7: This story is not canon to DTU, so the whole skit at the start and end was made up by myself, to give the whole court case some kind of ground to it. However, it is up to the readers to determine if they want it canon to DTU or not, and tbh, I don't mind regardless.
8: The morals are also debatable depending on the viewers, as the main focus on this was to debate if the evidence used in DTU to make Tails dark, would hold water with the Sonic Boom TV Show. So if anyone found any morals to learn from, then it was most likely not intentional, as the story had another focus.
Thanks for the questions btw! Anything that'll help make the viewers understand this better is appreciated. ^^

Thanks for answering.
Where, though, should I ask Grim these questions?

Where and/or how should I PM him? I don't want to inconvenience or confuse anyone by posting in the wrong place.
I'm sorry if my questions seem to be making you feel uncomfortable.

Loved the ending showing that violence is not always the answer and some changes in court has been mentioned in the story... Also liked the part where you describe the methodical speeches all to affect the outcome and it was a intense one as well....
