No, Miss Talking Pony, I expect you to provide me with a college scholarship! Really, you wouldn’t believe what the competition for that is like here at Shiro Ishii Memorial High School.
That makes sense.
I could honestly imagine courts just de facto treating anything sapient as “human”. Would cause issues for differing psychology (should an alien sapient species even fall under human law if their psychology is different enough?), but if it’s similar enough I imagine judges would be somewhat reasonable about it.
As unreasonable as courts can be, they generally try to be reasonable. And there’s always “the law you won’t be told” (Jury anollement).
Though given Ponies, Griffons, Yaks, Zebras, Minotaurs - Equestria probably just does this automatically.

There have been on and off efforts of legal scholars looking into extending human rights to all sapient beings, and under the laws of many countries, you can make a good go at arguing that they already do apply to all human level sapient beings.
Except Twilight isn’t human, so charges of human rights violations won’t stick. Maybe animal cruelty would be more appropriate? Or is Sci-Twi taking advantage of some sort of legal grey area here?

Let us have some fun.
And then pony Twi is left stuck there like: “Hello?… Anyone there?…”
Or we could just go with, you know, canon human Twi who would never do this…
Human Twilight: Maybe… I’m going to figuratively toss you at wall and see what secrets stick! I guarantee the worst thing you’ll get is a lobotomy. That’s just an hypothesis though, we both know science is filled with occupational hazards.
Twilight Prime: (Sarcastically) I should consider myself the luckiest girl in the world.
Human Twilight: Yes! Everything is going to be just fine!
“No, Mister Bond. I expect you to DIE!”
“Then this is your last chance to give me back my dog.”
“I keep telling you it was your dog that ate them!”
Good point.
A-ha! So you know what this thing is! Don’t play all innocent with me, little pony. We both know you have one too, and if the roles were reversed you’d have already pulled the lever.”
“It’s a vivisect-o-matic! You call yourself a scientist and you can’t even pronounce the name of your own devices right?”
