*When in doubt, you should default to the less serious crime.

*Pay careful attention to the requirements of each law and select the one that best fits the crime when deciding sentence.

*A single incident has a single sentence. If the prisoner took three items off of someone, this is a single count of pick-pocketing. If they pick-pocketed two people this would be two separate counts of pick-pocketing, and so on.

*Aiding a criminal makes you an accomplice; you can be charged with the same crime as the person you aided.

# Permanent Prisoners are not permitted to possess any personal belongings whilst they are incarcerated in the [[Prison Wing]].

## The Labor Camp can also be used to hold Permanent Prisoners. Simply do not issue a prisoner ID when transferring them to the camp.

====Legal Representation and Trials====

Prisoners are permitted to seek legal representation however you are under no obligation to provide or allow this.

The Lawyer's security headset is a privilege not a right. Security personnel are under no requirement to listen to them and security channel abuse is to result in that privilege being revoked. <BR>

|-

|-

| It is required to order the crowd to disperse, failure to disperse is the crime not the assembly. Any crimes committed during the riot are considered separate offences.

|-

|[[File:Major_Trespass.PNG]]

|'''Major Trespass'''

|-

|[[File:Sexual_Assault.PNG]]

This is one of the few crimes where it is recommended to always seek a third party opinion. If their actions are determined to be for the betterment of Nanotrasen consider a timed sentence or even a full pardon.
