The Tribunal
For the most serious offenses, among them treason against The Carthian Movement, all the Carthian officials in a domain will convene along with an equal number of otherwise uninvolved citizens to form the jury. Tribunals of this nature hear the arguments of the accused in his own defense, while the panel of officials questions witnesses about his guilt. Each member of the jury has one vote, guilty or not guilty, and the panel of officials (the“Judicial panel”) has one vote of its own. Tribunals convict on a two-thirds majority vote. For any crime serious enough to be brought before a tribunal, the penalty is always Final Death.
