Nocturnus Court Trial?

Cymrych · Posted: Mon Feb 12, 2007 9:35 pm Post subject: Nocturnus Court Trial?

I've got an RP case in the works that could lead to a real trial and someone being falsely accused of some crimes. It would be cool to have a trial and a defense lawyer could present the evidence that will get the defendent off. So would anyone be interested in doing a Judge, Jury, and a prosecution and defense attorney? Maybe a few witnesses or something to testify?

And Hrolf or one of the other decor people interested in decoratring for a trial? Might be a challenge?

Anyway, let me know.

I would love to participate in this. I'll be back in game more once Chapter 5 is on Live.

I'm in. The Kiva could be either a judge (English system with 3) or an advocate. Xen could be a witness, or jury member. Just can't do both, at the same time, so whichever you need most.

I don't know if any courts under the empire would actually have a jury made up of civilians. If a jury at all.

I think that would depend on if there were juries under the Republic, wouldn't it? Given the number of planets under the Empire, there would certainly be every version of justice systems imaginable. It would be just the Imperial courts that would be consistant.

And since we have already had one Imperial trial, if we were to have another, the precedence has been set. But, we are not talking an Imperial trial here, we are talking a local trial. I doubt that even Nym would be particularly interested in what kind of trial any of the local towns used. Heck, he probably wouldn't care if it was trial-by-lynching.

So we have multiple thoughts and multiple people that would be up for it.

Now if we proceed how do we want to conduct it? Jury, or just a judge?

If the Imperials are involved the trial will be known to the Empire, but as said do they care enough to worry with it or leave it to a local venue?

Iafeu has an inside track on this from our discussion so help me out. As witness if you are called to testify, then how does that affect us?

Hrolf let me stir up some lots and place a building to decor. What kind were you thinking of decorating in? PM if you want and let me know.

Think this might be a fun venture for us to undertake as a community.
