Commentaries On Various Offenses

← Older revision		Revision as of 06:18, 3 April 2018
Line 118:		Line 118:

	* '''Assault''': Assault is defined as inflicting or attempting to inflict bodily harm on another person without provable cause of self-defense. Use of weapons makes this charge into the more grievous one of attempted murder. If the assault causes significant injury to the victim, the charge will be upgraded to Assault and Battery, with correspondingly stiffer penalties. Should a victim of an assault later die from injuries sustained during the assault, the charge will be upgraded to homicide.		* '''Assault''': Assault is defined as inflicting or attempting to inflict bodily harm on another person without provable cause of self-defense.

If the assault causes significant injury to the victim, the charge will be upgraded to Assault and Battery, with correspondingly stiffer penalties. Should a victim of an assault later die from injuries sustained during the assault, the charge will be upgraded to homicide.

			* '''Assassination''': The heinous profession of committing murder for hire will not be tolerated in Transdariania. Anyone found to have murdered another sentient being in exchange for a promise of payment of any kind will be sentenced to immediate execution. Anyone found guilty of hiring an assassin will be sentenced to life imprisonment, except in cases of regicide, where the additional charge of high treason makes it a capital offense.

	* '''Banditry''': This crime covers all instances of armed robbery, whether it occurs in darkened urban alleys, or in remote corners of the kingdom. It is equally applicable both in instances of robbery of individuals, the raiding of trade caravans, raiding homes and farms in rural areas, and all situations in between. Banditry against Goverment officials or Government property is a capital offense.		* '''Banditry''': This crime covers all instances of armed robbery, whether it occurs in darkened urban alleys, or in remote corners of the kingdom.

Line 128:		Line 130:

	* '''Criminal Use of Magic''': Application of this offense is not limited to magic; it covers psionics and all other similar powers and abilities, supernatural or otherwise, as well. Those possessing powers or abilities beyond those of ordinary beings are bound by a responsibility to use said powers responsibly and judiciously. Those who use such powers irresponsibly, or apply them to criminal ends are subject to prosecution under the law. The punishment for this crime is dependent on the nature of the offense that was committed by means of magic or similar power, and varies accordingly. Generally, this charge is applied in conjunction with other crimes, and can significantly increase the severity of the judge's sentence. Murder by means of magic is automatically capital offense.		* '''Criminal Use of Magic''': Application of this offense is not limited to magic; it covers psionics and all other similar powers and abilities, supernatural or otherwise, as well.

			* '''Dueling''': The custom of dueling is a well-established cultural tradition, and will not be outlawed. Duels to the death are legal with the following provisions: the duel must be agreed upon by both participants beforehand and witnessed by at least one other individual, the duel can not be conducted in public businesses or on public ground, and the winner of the duel is responsible for any property damages incurred during the duel.

	* '''Extortion''': Extortion is the obtaining money, property, or favors from an individual through threats, intimidation, false claim of right (such as impersonating a Government official), or any other method of compulsion. This crime also covers blackmail, and the practice of outlaws forcing citizens to pay for the 'protection' of their person, family, or property.		* '''Extortion''': Extortion is the obtaining money, property, or favors from an individual through threats, intimidation, false claim of right (such as impersonating a Government official), or any other method of compulsion.

	* '''Homicide''': Killing beyond that of self-defense shall be met by immediate removal from society, placed in the dungeons until a decision by the Court has been fulfilled, with the highest punishment being execution.		* '''Homicide''': Killing beyond that of self-defense shall be met by immediate removal from society, placed in the dungeons until a decision by the Court has been fulfilled, with the highest punishment being execution.

	* '''Murder''': Murder is the willful and intentional taking of another sentient life without sufficient justification (i.e., that of self-defense). Anyone convicted of carrying out a premeditated act of murder will be sentenced to death. Anyone convicted of murdering any official of the Government will be sentenced to death. Anyone convicted of murdering a foreign dignitary, or any representative of a foreign government will be turned over to the slain official's country of origin for punishment. Those that have committed murder in the heat of the moment without any premeditation to commit the crime may be sentenced to a lesser punishment, such as exile or imprisonment.

	* '''Manslaughter''': Manslaughter is homicide which occurs without intent to kill, whether it occurs by accident or through careless or negligent behavior. The culpability of the criminal is somewhat less than that of a murderer, but it cannot be excused.		* '''Manslaughter''': Manslaughter is homicide which occurs without intent to kill, whether it occurs by accident or through careless or negligent behavior.

Anyone found guilty of hiring an assassin will be sentenced to life imprisonment, except in cases of regicide, where the additional charge of high treason makes it a capital offense.

	* '''Malfeasance''': Those entrusted by the Duchy with a portion of the Governmental Authority to discharge certain duties on behalf of the Duchy, such as the execution or enforcement of the laws, must at all times remain upright and steadfast in their duties to the Duchy and subjects of the Duchy. Those found misusing or abusing this authority will most assuredly be dealt with swiftly and harshly. Among the hateful offenses against the solemn duties of the Duchy are: accepting of bribes or other such gifts of favors meant to buy influence, embezzlement of Government funds, use of one's official authority for the purpose of committing illegal acts, and the use of one's official authority to conceal crimes or hamper investigations, though these are not the only abuses for which a corrupt official can be tried. All representatives of the Duchy are subject to the laws of the land, not above them in any way. Any Duchy official convicted of this crime that has not been sentenced to execution or exile will be ineligible to hold any other public position, no matter how minor, for a period of ten years after the end of the term of imprisonment, or after all fines to the Duchy have been paid in full, whichever date is later.		* '''Malfeasance''': Those entrusted by the Duchy with a portion of the Governmental Authority to discharge certain duties on behalf of the Duchy, such as the execution or enforcement of the laws, must at all times remain upright and steadfast in their duties to the Duchy and subjects of the Duchy.

	* '''Mind Rape''': This crime is defined as the invasion of the mind of a sentient being without prior consent through magic, psionics, supernatural abilities, or any other method for the purpose of examining, altering, or destroying memories. Offenses that also fall under the scope of this crime are: establishing an unnatural influence or control over another individual, or infliction of injury to the psyche that reduces the victim to a comatose, vegetative, or idiotic (i.e., mentally retarded) state. The penalties for violating the sanctity of another's mind are as severe as that of physical violation. Compelling an individual to commit a crime through magical enchantment, psionic domination, or any other similar method is automatically a capital crime.		* '''Mind Rape''': This crime is defined as the invasion of the mind of a sentient being without prior consent through magic, psionics, supernatural abilities, or any other method for the purpose of examining, altering, or destroying memories.

	* '''Obstruction of Justice''': This offense is defined as actions that attempt to interfere with the administration of justice, or the operation of the court system. Obstruction of Justice can include bribing or threatening witnesses, hiding or falsifying evidence, or attempting to bribe or otherwise influence law enforcement agents, judges, or representatives of the Chancellery.		* '''Obstruction of Justice''': This offense is defined as actions that attempt to interfere with the administration of justice, or the operation of the court system.
