John Kirby Court is a digital court hosted by Redactors in Google Hangouts. The court is controlled by a judge, NotJohnKirbo, who is also the court's entire permanent population. It uses royal blue (#4285f4)[b] and shamrock green (#139959), the official colors of Google Hangouts. When not hosting cases, the court doubles as a news feed jointly controlled by MTT News and the Rebinion Confederation.[a]
John Kirby Court was most likely named after attorney John Kirby, who is coincidentally also the person that NotJohnKirbo vehemently denies being and is only slightly obsessed with.

2020 CE
June
- June 23: John Kirby Court makes its first public appearance, holding the case Indenar Noldo v. Thomas Nook, with Indenar Noldo IV as prosecutor, Tom Nook as defendant, and Defragon Peroxus Caesium as defending attorney. Asriel Dreemurr-Motorola Caesium, LEGO Temmie, and the AutoTubers are appointed members of the jury.
- June 24: After a long break, Indenar Noldo v. Thomas Nook resumes and ends in stalemate based on a lack of information.
- June 25: NotJohnKirbo temporarily closes the court because "[he] ha[s] depression and do[es]n't want to talk to anyone."
- June 27: Indenar Noldo v. Thomas Nook: The Second Part, a boring continuation of Indenar Noldo v. Thomas Nook where nothing happens, is held. Asriel Dreemurr–Motorola Caesium is exposed as alive in Timeline Nabla as MTT News films the trial.
- June 29: tEMMIE CRu!!!!1!1!! proposes a lawsuit in John Kirby Court against Defragon Peroxus Caesium for attempting to have Alphys write shipping fanfiction libel about Asriel Dreemurr and Chara.
July
- July 4: Defragon Peroxus Caesium proposes a lawsuit in John Kirby Court against Indenar Noldo for murdering him and WEELIAMO in Super Mario Maker 2. Noldo himself wants to sue Mu Tau Tau with Mettaton for being an MTT Channel knockoff; he proposes that all three currently proposed trials are merged into a single case. NotJohnKirbo rejects this idea.
- July 5: Toriel and Asgore Dreemurr v. Defragon Peroxus Caesium is held, with Asgore Dreemurr and Toriel as prosecutors, Defragon Peroxus Caesium as defendant, Undyne as prosecuting attorney, and Burleon Brightfall, Mettaton, Mu Tau Tau, Indenar Noldo as various forms of witnesses. NotJohnKirbo believes this to be an attempt by Noldo to disobey his orders and merge the case with the two other proposed trials; in response, he battles Noldo and Toriel. Combat ends peacefully as all belligerents are fatigued; Noldo is awarded with the Judge's Robe. NotJohnKirbo bans Mu Tau Tau until its trial can be conducted using JUSTICE 2. Nonetheless, the program remains considered innocent until found guilty.
August
- August 13: As part of a deal between PictoGraphVCX and the Rebinion Confederation, John Kirby Court now doubles as a court and a news feed jointly controlled by MTT News and the Rebinion Confederation.[a] Kila and Mettaton host Intergalactic Federation of the Rebinion Declare Victory over King Boo Forces.
September
- September 4: John Kirby Court hosts a broadcast of MTT News.
Foreign relations
John Kirby Court is led by NotJohnKirbo; the Redactors, a division of the AutoCorrectors, are thought to have given NotJohnKirbo authorization to start and lead the court in Google Hangouts. Thus, the Redactors, and by extension PictoGraphVCX, leader of the AutoCorrectors, are the true power in the court.
When there are no cases, John Kirby Court is used as a news feed. As part of a deal between the AutoCorrectors and the Rebinion Confederation, the Confederation controls the news feed, making it prone to bias and false statements. While not completely legally, the news feed is also used by MTT News. This led to minor argument in Intergalactic Federation of the Rebinion Declare Victory over King Boo Forces but may escalate in the future.
