[1] - client?  political views?  to be on trial?
[2] - "the state rests" -- is this legalese even necessary?  Maybe
{yap 'e' maq qum} or something, but anything other than {pItlh} sounds
too wordy for a Klingon.

> COLONEL WORF: Objection! My client's political views are not on trial.
> CHANG: On the contrary, Captain Kirk's views and motives are, indeed,
> at the very heart of the matter. This officer's record shows him to be
> an insubordinate, unprincipled, career-minded opportunist with a
> history of violating the chain of command whenever it suited him.
> KLINGON JUDGE: Continue.
> CHANG: Indeed the record shows that Captain Kirk once held the rank of
> Admiral and that Admiral Kirk was broken for taking matters into his
> own hands in defiance of regulations and the law. Do you deny you were
> demoted for these charges, Captain? Don't wait for the translation.
> Answer me now!
> KIRK: I cannot deny it.
> CHANG: You were demoted.
> KIRK: Yes.
> CHANG: For insubordination.
> KIRK: On occasion, I have disobeyed orders.
> CHANG: And were you obeying or disobeying orders when you arranged the
> assassination of Chancellor Gorkon?
> KIRK: I didn't know about the assassination until we boarded the ship!
> CHANG: You still deny the Enterprise fired on Kronos One?
> KIRK: Well...
> COLONEL WORF: Your honour, please...
> CHANG: And you still deny your men beamed aboard and shot the Chancellor?
> COLONEL WORF (OC): Objection!
> KIRK: I cannot confirm or deny actions I did not witness.
> CHANG: Captain Kirk, are you aware that as the Captain of a starship
> you are required to be responsible for the actions of your men?
> KIRK: I am.
> CHANG: And if it should be proved that members of your crew did in
> fact carry out such an assassination?...
> McCOY: Jim! They're setting us up! Your honours!...
> COLONEL WORF: Do not answer!
> KLINGON JUDGE: Captain Kirk, you will answer the question.
> KIRK: As Captain ...I am responsible for the conduct of the crew under
> my command.
> CHANG: Your honours, the State rests.
