Justice for All Promulgated by Order of our Lord and the High Council

HE court’s jurisdiction for the following laws is confined to acts that occur within the land under the control of Sarbreenar, unless otherwise stated. This jurisdiction may be extended by the will of our Lord and the Council. The Lord and members of the Council are appointed to the office of Magistrate. One magistrate sitting alone may impose on conviction of any miscreant Minor Justice, that is, a maximum fine, compensation, or confiscation value of 1,000 gp and/or servitude for up to 6 months. More severe punishments are known as Major Justice and can only be given by a bench of two or more Magistrates.

The proof of the committing of any alleged offence is a duty imposed upon the High Constable of the Watch to a standard that the court accepts as being sufficient. That officer may appoint any person to act as the Prosecuting Inspector in a particular case. Any person may undertake the role of Miscreant’s Fool (an ancient and historical term for the one unfortunate enough to be involved in representing wrongdoers).

The following terms have specific definitions within Sarbreenar:

Unlawful: Actions that are not authorised by the Council as being powers properly delegated to others.

Person: A citizen or an authorised visitor. Foreign assassins, spies or other reasoning beings that harbour malice towards Sarbreenar may not receive the full protection of the law.
