He may be forgiven his past and will be absolved in death. A Traitor can never be forgiven. A Traitor will never find peace in this world or the next. There is nothing as wretched or as hated in all the world as a Traitor. Cardinal Khrysdam, Instructum Absolutio The Imperium follows its own laws, their division determined by the nature of the accused if they are of the Imperium or not. All Imperial Laws are enforced as best as possible in Imperial territory and protectorates through the Adeptus Arbites. When the Imperium is on Crusade the zone of operations for said Crusade is considered under Imperial jurisdiction. Any violations outside of Imperial jurisdiction or crimes against our allies are beyond the power of the Imperium at this time, but any violators who leave Imperial territory may be hunted throughout the city. Reporting a Crime The proper procedure for reporting a crime is as follows: 1.) Get on the Imperium forums. Please register as this will lend any claim you file considered more credible than a guest post. 2.) Check the law to determine the crime in question. 3.) Check through the report crimes forum. If the perpetrator is not already listed as presently charged under the roster then start a new thread titled the name of the criminal in question. 4.)Your profile link. Anyone who is a known criminal in the eyes of the Imperium will have their reports ignored as they are not under the protection of Imperial Law. 5.)The profile of the perpetrator with what they are accused of. 6.)An undoctored screenshot as proof of the crime hosted on imageshack or photobucket. If the crime requires repeated action then provide as many screenshots needed. Contesting a Charge If an individual is reported to the Imperium for committing a crime and they feel they are falsely accused or there are extenuating circumstances they may contest the charge on the forums as follows: 1.) Check the Reporting a Crime subforum on the Imperium's forum to determine if this is the case. 2.) If you have found this charge within seven days of levying it you may file notice of intent to contest the charge in said charge. If it is beyond seven days you are considered to have plead no contest. 3.) Upon this occurring you are scheduled for a trial ruled by the Lord Inquisitor who maintains the rules of evidence and determines the verdict. A Commissar will prosecute you. You may either defend yourself or request another Commissar to defend you. 4.) If your explanation is deemed sufficient and found not guilty you are cleared of all charges. If not then you will be posted on the criminals list with punishment listed beside it.
