Okay let's start over here. Jair needs to move somewhere else to be able to directly target the woman on the rooftop, otherwise she can't see her. Folks who can (like Shrec) however can point out a spot in the air above the space that would catch the woman in the range of the spell. I'll let the initial roll stand though her mod is different it isn't different enough. She does not react at all to calming effect except to not immediately fill the party full of arrows.
Vesh can't move quite yet as he is still 'flat-headed.'
Lasaraleen and Jair both drop the screaming imp's cage in the middle of the road.
Atum's orb engulfs the men in its churning waters.
It seems you are serving the wrong devil if you think you can dissuade us!
She casts righteous might and strides west as she draws her scimitar and grows to a towering 10’ height
”Bring it.“
"Brought." The woman sweeps out of the shadows and under the giant cleric's guard. Her reserved face looks familiar somehow. As Lasaraleen considers this the woman's huge sword sweeps in for the kill.

Chandu steps to one side, begins a rousing speech and casts a spell of her own.
Take heart friends, we will not be intimidated by a bunch of infernal ruffians. Whoever you are, you have made a terrible mistake.
Suddenly there are many of her as well, and each holds a spear burning brightly with a golden light.
She casts a glance over to Lasaraleen, Do you have that on in hand?
5' step, move action to inspire courage for +2|2 and casting mirror image for 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7 images. She also activates arcane strike as a swift action. It looks like mirror image guy might provoke once moving up to me or Shrec so I will put one OA in a spoiler

Ebatus! DC 19 Reflex to step somewhere, but just 17 for Lass not to squeez down.
Invisible Doru head trying just to understand whats happening, flying higher.

Quick note the aqueous orb moves 30' per round, the men moved 40' after casting their spell.

Normally I would say it is not all together clear what your ally is about to do while in melee (does Lasaraleen press the attack, grapple her foe, withdraw, etc...). Normally the caster in question would issue some sort of warning like: "Hey! fireball!" or if they are being sneaking "Hey remember that thing we talked about earlier?" or even make a Bluff (pass secret message) check, but given the current circumstances it's fine as is.
reflex:1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21
"Meh."
The woman moves like shadows around a campfire. Using her huge sword as a sort of counterbalance she leaps from the edge of the emerging pit spinning like a top, her blade extended, lending momentum to its edge.
"STOP IN THE NAME OF THE LAW!" shouts a voice from higher above.
A copper-haired erinyes descends on sable wings "Conflict is chaos. This is a city of law! What is all this about? Speak or be judged in contempt of the law!"

The erinyes legionnaire scans the paperwork from across the street. She grins evilly and says: "This says that you are valid bounties to be captured or slain as necessary. In light of this I insist you desist your resistance and yield in acknowledgement of their claim. Otherwise...." She smiles again and reaches for her bow.

The five, identical flying men all grin broadly, but the woman with the greatsword doesn't move a muscle. Her expression as set as stone.

This doesn't make sense, Leona frowns. Had they done something illegal? She certainly couldn't think of anything in the heat of this new conflict. "Have you got an extra copy of that for us to see?" she calls out, uncomfortable. "I can think of no reason for there to be bounties out on us so further information would be welcome." They were still within their time limit, weren't they?
Sense Motive:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Ugh, this was the worst. Had something else changed? What were the rules for bounties here? Perhaps this was all just an unfortunate misunderstanding? Still, she wasn't interested in being taken into this particular justice system.
She had no intention of going quietly into the night, and given that her allies hadn't exactly backed out of the fight... She prepares to attack in case the next steps aren't something she likes.
Readied Action:
Leona casts lightning bolt in a line against the enforcer and the swordsmen beyond in an effort to not zap any of her allies if they attack.

"Of course, it was prepared in triplicate. All nice and legal." the Hellknight holds out a copy for Leona to come look at.

Best make a very, very good diplomacy check! Circumstance bonuses and penalties may (i.e. definitely) apply.
The erinyes eyes burn like coals.
You can speak out of turn, but actions beyond that are still tied to initiative (at least until it is determined whether or not we are still in combat rounds).

Chandu pauses for a moment and casts a simple spell to no apparent effect.
Casting heroism
She steps forward, I am sorry but you appear to have been less than clear. Are you alleging that WE are wanted criminals or that these people who attacked us, without provocation, in the middle of the street are. I can certainly see how a group who try to murder people in the street would be wanted. As you can see, she gestures to the Orb, the Pit and the calmed woman on the roof, we have primarily sought to defend ourselves in nonlethal ways. Surely the laws of Dis permit one to defend oneself against unprovoked attack. If you desire evidence then witness my companion Lasaraleen''s wounds, inflicted by the dead eyed woman with the greatsword.
She pauses for a moment, However, I am more concerned that your paperwork seems not to be in order. We have here signed and witnessed authority to act on behalf of the Osyluth Vetrivedes. We are currently contracted to undertake a formal investigation into irregularities on the part of a certain Leventi. I do hope you are not attempting to interfere with an official investigation into malfeasance and corruption. Or, perhaps worse, that you have been tricked into doing so by the likes of this Leventi. As I am sure you are aware the penaltiees for misconduct, or incompetence, are very stiff.

Assuming that the rest of the party goes along with Chandu, and everyone puts their dangerous toys away, a minimum of a minute passes as the party tries to make a Diplomacy or Profession (barrister) check to argue their point. Either simultaneously (in which case it has to be a another party member) or afterward someone can look at the bounty forms for party that the Hellknight on the roof is holding (Linguistics or Profession (barrister) check; also it is pretty funny how many Hellknights are in Hell, huh?). This second check takes at least a minute as well.

My apologies for wasting your time even though you've got eternity to live on. First of all I'd like to look closer to this bounty-papers. Probably there is some mistake. We are here at legal postions and work for Vetrivides. So it would be very inconvenient for him if we can not proceed.
Atum also whispers to his fellows: Does someone took this broach depicting a dragon-like creature pierced by three black spears? From in-wall hellknights...

To review the bounty on the party is Atum flying, or otherwise climbing up on the roof to retrieve a copy from the Hellknight? Veshtahz can with some time get most of it by hovering about invisibly.
