The entire court trial sequence has already finished, but after appealing the verdict, we still have to sit in the courtroom until the event timer runs out.
If you accept the verdict, the event ends immediately, even if there is still time left. Appealing the verdict should work the same way and end the event once the court trial sequence is complete.
Thank you for reporting this bug It seems like the trials are very bugged in general, from beginning to end, so I hope it gets fixed soon.
To provide additional info, would you please fill out the report form you’ve left empty with the required info, such as Game Version, Platform, etc? Thank you in advance
I think the trigger to end the event is simply missing. It could be something like the judge getting up angrily, or the jury complaining about the appeal.
I didn’t play a criminal Zoi yet, but wow a lot of things and systems still seem to be bugged. I hope they will take a look at this again, since the dev team seems to be adding more crime content. They really need to fix it from the ground up before they add much more in my opinion
That’s why I play it as well, so I can get a feel for it, report bugs, and make suggestions about what else could be added. Having a police officer standing next to your bed waiting for you to wake up so they can arrest you, or running around like a headless chicken…

When Teleport When Traveling to a Destination is turned off the bailiff just stands outside the courthouse and doesn’t come to collect me on a guilty verdict and I had to wait until the timer on the event elapsed. When I turned it on things proceeded as they should and I was taken to jail.
In a previous trial my lawyer finally arrived and sat down after the judge gave an innocent verdict and the same thing happened.
It seems like there should be an action at the beginning of the trial to wait for everyone to be seated and have a place inside the courtroom for the bailiff.
The save file is from 10 minutes before the trial, and you can guarantee a guilty verdict if you say you have an alibi.
I’m not 100% certain because I haven’t played in a while, but a few weeks ago, I had a similar issue. Even though teleporting is turned off for my active household, whenever I don’t actively play one of them, they still seem to teleport every now and then
It seems like the trials are very bugged in general, from beginning to end, so I hope it gets fixed soon.
