Harry Potter and Dudley Dursley run towards a walking underpass and are then attacked by Dementors. Harry casts Expecto Patronum and saves himself and Dudley. As he is checking to make sure Dudley is okay, Mrs. Arabella Figg walks up to Harry and she advises him not to put away his wand in case the Dementors come back. She explains to Harry that Albus Dumbledore asked her to keep an eye on Harry. The next day, Harry is taken to face trial in front of the Wizengamot. Harry tells the Wizengamot, which includes Dolores Umbridge and Amelia Bones, that he used magic to fight against the Dementors in order to save Dudley. Mrs. Arabella Figg takes the stand and describes the Dementors. A vote is taken and Harry is cleared of the charges.
